I just IMed someone three times before I realized that she may be online but is in an "away state." What the hell does that mean, anyway?

It means she doesn't like you.

Oct 25th, 2004, 07:59 PM
No, it means that she isn't at the computer. That's what the Away message is for. It's not as if it targets specific users, and even if it did, she couldn't target me because she doesn't know my s/n.

Wait a bit?

Let me put this in perspective:

Online time: 6 hours, 9 minutes.

She must be one of those types that leaves the damn thing on all day. She might not be back at all, and I don't feel like sitting at my computer that long.

You can set it so that some kind of alarm type thing goes off when she comes back from being away... just right click on the name, and go down to "alert me when *whoever* is available"... of course, you'll still have to be at your computer to hear the alert, but if you set your volume loud enough, you can go do other things around the house, and just be sure to listen for the noise

This is an honest question - what status do you get for a person when they've blocked you? Do they just always look offline to you then?

When they block you it says:

"User has blocked you from sending instant messages. This means you are probably a right cunt, some 40 year old fatty perv, or OAO. AOL suggests you try communicating with people in real life, for once. Lets face it, you need the exercise. If you have no friends, try engaging some local brainless shop assistant drone, perhaps with a fevered and sweaty reference to the current weather. Laugh nervously at the blank, slack jawed response as you try to find some connection with their dead, glassy eyes. Leave shop, with the last vestiges of your self-esteem trailing behind you like some rancid, shapeless intestine. Kill self. Repeat."

From what I can tell the girl that flirted with you on the bus was most probably trying to get it on with one of your siblings/friends. You were just a means to an end buddy, means to an end.

Which I find hilarious, as I have no siblings and no friends whom I have hardly any contact with.

And if you're blocked, you can't send a message. I sent one, it just took me forever to find out she wasn't at the computer.

Anyway, this is pointless. Quite frankly, I would be just as happy smashing the CD she made and feeding the shards to her, but alas, that would get in severe legal trouble. I just want the stupid, pointless, unnecessary contact to end, because it isn't going anywhere and it isn't going to.

You know, I could just cap her in the knees. That way, it wouldn't be attempted murder.

I have friends, but I rarely contact them. My point was that if she wanted one of them, there are others she could have gone through more effectively.

However, it's irrelevant. I'm just seriously pissed. I want to knock the shit out of this girl right now, and that's not an exaggeration. If it had no repercussions, I would do it without hesitation. Not even Agoraphobic Nosebleed can help me vent my rage. I hope that feeling fades by tomorrow, or else I'm going to be in a murderous rampage.

ok thats OAO

hey did you guys ever see the movie about a person named matt harty who did his best to imitate whatever person that was liked a lot on a message board in an attempt to be funny but failed miserably at gaining any kind of acceptance because he was outed as a fake and instead bragged about all of his friends that he had offline while he was online?

ok that's so whoops, i don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. :(

see thats the most hilarious part

you guys say "oh your hardcore" like i ever tried to make it sound like i was anything big for having friends and dating alot of girls. and its you sad people who keep bringing it up that makes it so funny to me, that it pisses so many people off that someone does something outside of the house.

i cant say all of you are pathetic, but the majority that still brings it up is sad. :<

Terra
Oct 27th, 2004, 10:30 AM
What I find hilarious is that somebody actually gives a rip about your love life. AND the fact that you have a life outside of this place, which compels you to justify it constantly. :)

Now do smart things and cease talking about it.

Thank you and move forward.

glow, its like someone being pissed off at you for having a baby because they've never expierienced it. its really odd, and it'd probably make you laugh like it does me. you never tried to brag or make a big deal out of it.

but, if its one thing the lonely and outcast people of i-mockery hate, its seeing others with happy and successful lives. As compared to their own worthless existence, where the highlight of their day was taking shots at someone with a girlfriend. Irony. :lol

You weren't even in a relationship with this girl and you're that angry at her? You're the kind of guy that makes me so careful who I give my phone number to... seriously, chill. Maybe she just thinks you're nice and likes talking to you on the bus (or wherever you guys meet).

Just an afterthought...

Why don't you just calm down and just talk to her. Be her friend. Is that so bad? Even if it doesn't work out, you'll still have one more friend. To get angry about something like that is just dumb. Are you even ready for a relationship with a real life girl? :eek

A girl doesn't want a guy with nothin'. They want to be with a guy they'll feel safe with, that'll protect them. Someone that has stable finanaces (a.k.a: a job), and someone who's in somewhat decent shape (a.k.a, not overweight, not saying you are or anything).

Sometimes girls just flirt for the hell of it man. I love it, personally, even if it goes nowhere. If I wanna get serious with someone, i'll let them know. So relax, you got a long life ahead of you, and who knows, maybe you'll find that special girl you've been waiting for.















Or rape. Rape solves everything! :lol

It's great how defensive mattchew is getting about this. Matt, the reason why we make fun of you for pretending you have a million billion friends and a stable of girlfriends - where they sit all day preening themselves until you open up the double-doors and select one to ride with for the day - is because recently you've been falling back on that hilarious lie whenever you get upset with someone.

Not that you don't know that, but you're about as convincing in your spin as our current president.

Actually, much less so, considering half the country is still rallying behind the moron.

I never tried to make myself sound special, I made one comeback to some obscure character and it stirred up Rongi n Pals.

So now whenever I say anything it's "haha well its ok matt harty you can ask one of your girlfriends can i borrow one haha" like I made 5 threads boasting about my life.
