We are kindred spirits, friend.I love my computer, I am a programmer so it would really be bad if I did not.
I love peace and quiet wherever I can find it.
Books. I can never have enough books or knowledge.
For me it's like, why wouldn't you build a house in the woods? =)
this house is like a dream house, but really I am scared living in a house with glass wall with no curtain esp when it is in the woods and far from neighbors.
Neighbors can be annoying but sometimes when in danger, neighbors can come to rescue!
There, I did it. You're right, it does make for an easier read.that'll do!

Thanks for the clarification, and yes that is a bit different from what it looked like. Still, if you ask for someone's favorite thing, and you don't like the answer, you shouldn't ask. An example of this for me is the fact that there's a Muslim in here. I have him blocked. That was my private choice to do so. Nevertheless, I believe it is extremely important that he has to have the freedom to say such things. I can choose to ignore him, and him me. If you're not free, I'm not free. IOW, saying your favorite thing is your Faith isn't hijacking the thread. It's just answering the question.He's (VC) not saying to never ever mention anything like that, its there to stop people hijacking threads with religious
proselytizeing which has been an issue on a number of ocassions, also theres a whole forum just for religion. Don't see an atheism forum around here and nobody's complaining. I don't know about anybody else but I don't go in the religion forum and hijack any threads in there or trying to deconvert people from their religious beliefs and I don't think that would be allowed or fair either.
I cant comment on who was or wasn't doing anything tbh but answering a question with an answer about "Your favorite things" for example isn't really proselytizing, nobody expects anybody to censor themselves to such a ridiculous level.Thanks for the clarification, and yes that is a bit different from what it looked like.

Was he/she proselytizing? If they were, my mistake, I'll shut up and ask for your forgiveness. (I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm asking because I honestly don't know, since I've blocked them).
So, it sounds like there's no problem than, good. I wouldn't think of doing that here in this thread either, it's practically pointless. It'd be like showing up at a funeral playing "Kool and the Gang's" hit "Celebration"... even if what you have to share is good you're gonna spoil it.I cant comment on who was or wasn't doing anything tbh but answering a question with an answer about "Your favorite things" for example isn't really proselytizing, nobody expects anybody to censor themselves to such a ridiculous level.
There are a few muslims here and other kinds of christians, atheists etc so I don't really know what you are getting at unless you just automatically have a problem with all muslims? I hope not, kinda intolerant but yeah everybodys free to say what they want as long as they aren't attacking people or hijacking threads with spam, trolling, bullying etc and you are completely free to think whatever you want...
Am sure theres room for a little deviation here and there, not that stringent.So, it sounds like there's no problem than, good.

No, I tend to block people that can't communicate properly; that is to say they talk but don't listen; some might say "they can't agree to disagree." Classic example: I spend some time chatting on a very Liberal forum. They know who I am, and despite our disagreements, we can carry on conversations where both parties listen to what the other has to say.
Anyways, enough said. We're perhaps in danger of hijacking this thread now too. I don't blame you, you were just clearing up confusion on my part. Thank you.
LOL, yeah but you see, in my case, with my mouth, obstinance with regards to the Law, and history of ruffling authority figure's feathers, there really would be reason for a lot people to celebrate - not my life - but my death.Am sure theres room for a little deviation here and there, not that stringent.
I would probably want that played at my funeral tbh
Your Funeral Playlist - Morbid But Fun.... I Promise, Sort Of :|
Ok so am sure all our funerary arrangements will be different but am sure we will all have some kind of music we will want played at our funeral in whatever form that takes, so lets play a game of "Your Funeral Playlist" lol jk but not lol so what is your funeral playlist. I am pretty sure mine...vigilantcitizenforums.com
Thanks Carolyn for your thoughtful responses!Am sure theres room for a little deviation here and there, not that stringent.
I dont really think its right for anybody to be celebrating someone dying no matter how much they might dislike you. I feel like that kind of things bad karma and you get back what you put out into the world, thats what I believe anyway. Sure it doesn't always work out that way and sometimes some people get away with allsorts of shit but its pointless wasting time letting hate or anger eat away at you.LOL, yeah but you see, in my case, with my mouth, obstinance with regards to the Law, and history of ruffling authority figure's feathers, there really would be reason for a lot people to celebrate - not my life - but my death.

Keep doing stuff like that even when you're so old you think it's stupid. That's when it'll be the most important to keep doing it.We have a lot in common as far as interest.
