I'd say I probably only submit about 5% of the posts I actually write. I'll start a short reply that turns into a multi-paragraph dissertation and then realize I went over the top or wrote something dumb, and just hit the back button instead.

Yep, in fact my very first post ever on this forum back in 99 got the attention of Ron, and not in a good way lol.

It's funny how that went down, I posted something Titanic related, very bad post on my part, and then I saw that the co-owner of the forum came in after me, before I actually read his post I thought to myself "Cool! I got the attention of the co-owner, he must be impressed!"

He wasn't lol.

All of my typing skills and on-line etiquette i've learned and honed right here on this forum. The biggest benifit, though, is that the civilized manner in which this forum operates has taught me great restraint in the way I post. Sometimes I just want to scream because someone pisses me off but I can't so I force myself to calm down and respond in a more mature manner.

But yes, i've had disasters in the past.

I always wonder if ANYBODY wants to hear what I have to say sometimes and when I hit the "send" key I think "well, thats another thread killer". I have started two threads in a year and a half though and they both got like 500 reads so maybe I am being too hard on myself. It does seem like I do have a tendency to kill em so if this is the last post, you'll know why!
BTW Mary, i'm still waiting on clearer pics of you and not that big ass TV!

I'll spray some thread-killer preventer. *pssssst*

I think the biggest thread I ever started was the Snakes on a Plane thread. :rolleyes:;)

If I had to pick an entire thread that I have questioned in the past, it would have to be my Anne Hathaway thread, I don't know what pathetic loser momentarily took over my body and composed that thing, but i'm glad it's gone. :D

Yea I've looked at old posts and threads I created at different sites and wondered what I was thinking or why I posted it.

Wow, so you guys too? I see posts from the previous day and wonder what the hell. Someone mentioned drunk posting; don't do it! I used to this all the time with incorrehent results.

And never, EVER post on an hallucinogen
