RUN!!!! They're spreading, invading every aspect of one's life! My neighbors took me out for their anniversary dinner a week or so ago, (lovely twist which I truly appreciated). We were trying to have a quiet conversation, when a gaggle of young ladies arrived. They no sooner sat down, than they pulled out dollar-store wedding gear, plopped it on their heads, and one of them stood up and loudly announced: "It's my wedding, and I'm the bride!" Deathly quiet ensued. After a moment, a quiet buzz of conversation resumed. Five minutes later, the announcement ritual drowned out conversation again. The rest of our meal was tolled with these five-minute announcements. I was ready to pretend it was Halloween, and announce a 'Dead Bride' party. I figured the rest of the diners would be glad to help with the preparations. My neighbor forstalled me, loudly announcing, with a fake simper: "It's my anniversary, and I'm here with my boyfriend!!" Is this an isolated spotting of obnoxious BZilla, or has she developed new habitat? Cea

Oh, yeah, funny....
NOT! :->
And let's not even mention those who go to Las Vegas to get married but then want to throw a big party to get all the gifts...
Hey check out my website Ravensgoods.home.comcast.net/wholesale2005.html
That is exactly what one DD's step son & his fiancé did. When I was asked about the gift I was sending, I asked, "What gift? I wasn't invited to the ceremony itself, so no gift is necessary, IMHO." They are still cool to me after 5 years, whenever I see them at DD's home. Emily

I'm unsubscribing from this NG - everyone is just to mean & nasty. Real life is just nasty enough without having the same in cyber world.
LOL....thanks for my laugh of the day! I guess you haven't seen many newsgroups yet. Try looking at any of the 'alt.' hierarchy and you will soon see what 'mean & nasty' is...lol.
This has to be one of the friendliest newsgroups out there.
Food for thought that may or may not apply.
Story 1
These naughty boys found a homeless man sleeping soundly at the side of the road one day, and feeling especially frisky, they went to the store and bought some Limburger cheese and gently smeared it through the man's beard.
Later the man woke up. He looked around cautiously and suspiciously, taking great gulps of air, and finally proclaimed, "Man, the whole world stinks today!"
But it wasn't the whole world that stunk. :)
Story 2
There was a older man who always sat on his porch in a rocker at his house at the edge of town. One day these people drove up and said they were from this one particular town and were thinking about moving to his town and asked him what his town was like.
He asked them, "What's the town like that you're moving from?"
They answered, "They snobby and mean, back-stabbing, and unfriendly."
He then replied, "Well, I guess the folks here are about the same way. You better look for another town."
Later in the day, someone else drove up in a car from the same town as the first person and asking him the same question.
He asked them as well, "What's the town like that you're moving from?"
They answered, "They're really friendly, warm, and helpful. We're really sorry to be leaving there. There's not a better place to live in the whole world."
He then replied, "Well, I guess the folks here are about the same way, and I'm sure you'd be happy here, too."
(Moral of the story: Sometimes -- but not always, I will concede -- a place is what you make of it.)
The Internet just isn't for everyone. Fortunately, participation is not compulsory. Some of the newsgroups I enjoy reading get high points for creative insults.....not this group - as you say, this one is mild and friendly.
I thought Snigdibbly was joking, surely... :(

Oooooo - so sorry to someone with no sense of humour! I love this newsgroup because the members are so friendly and helpful, but can still be irritated by crass people - and laugh about it! Most members are not only highly intelligent - but have wonderful senses of humour. Of course, I still think that Cea owes me majorly for the expense of cleaning up my puddles! Cynthia

HEY YOU!

Oooops! Sorry! You said 'puddles' didn't you! Damn I need glasses. ;-).
Well then, buh-bye!

Oh yes one does, otherwise one's newsreader does not allow one to read the news. That said, this means of subscription does not render one's presence visible to other subscribers whilst one keeps one's mouth shut long enough to establish the tone and content of the news available. One does not need a newsreader in order to read the news on-line via Google and similar, obviously.

Two does. Two also enjoys the mental image which springs to mind upon the pronouncement of unsubscribing, akin to flouncing from the room, slamming door, with audible *sniffff* wafting across the now-nearly-vacant room. Two does.
