I also agree with the above sentiments. You are coming off as a bratty child. If asked to guess, I'd say you're 12~15 and your parents make 250K a year, but your mom divorced your dad when you were 6 or 8, and you haven't seen him since.



My first post in reply to this was taken off dew to the lewd nature, I will try another aproach. How dare you judge me, when You have nothing to do with this? SFGOON and I made peace, and that was all a misunderstanding that was cleared up some time ago. Then you want to try and stir it back up, and then presume to judge me? as though you are Jean Dixon of the phycic freinds network or something? I moved out of my house at 15. I was one of 5 kids with next to no money. I worked my ass off at 15 to pay rent and go to school to avoid being a ward of the state. I finished high school on my own, and then worked full time to put myself through college not one but two times. Perhaps you should clean your crystal ball, I think that the image is a little cloudy.
I hear what you are saying.....that doesn't mean I agree with you....Just that I am nodding my head to placate you and silence your futile attempts to win the argument.

No one is here to judge you, and Raccoon's reply may have gone a bit too far, but it was not much worse than the garbage that you had typed earlier.

Now, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT...

For someone who has gone through college "not one, but two times," you don't have very good communication skills. On this board, there is the expectation that you communicate in a manner that is respectful. The following is not respectful to the other members on this forum:

ok, I know you guys have used about EVERY F***ing picks known to man on here, so I was hoping that one of you who has used these, could help me out. I have just about every type of pick there is....I use southord,hpc,peterson,and homeade....however....I have been looking at these 2 sets......The thought of the unusual rake is very tempting...I am torn between the stainless steel computer generated picks found here.......http://www.lockpicks.com/index.asp?Page ... 90.....and the high tech spring steel picks here...........http://www.lockpicks.com/index.asp?Page ... ID=32....I think that the computer generated picks would last longer(stainless has always been my preference over sping steel)..however, I think that the profile on the high tech looks as though it would open more locks quicker.......Has anyone used both of these sets? or if not, maybe if someone who has used at least one set could post a review of them, and then others will hopefully follow.....Then with a side by side comparision, I could make a better decision.....I only allow myself one major pick purchase a month...and don't want to be dissapointed....Thanx so much in advance to everyone who helps.......Let me get some honest feedback from you, and I will do the same on any "rate these" that you post....So lets get it started....


That was trash, and your english teacher should be flogged. If you want to write like that, that's all fine and dandy but remember that others do not enjoy reading this class "writing", and that the responses that you receive may not be to your liking.

If you are willing to work on this issue and become a contributing member to this board, then that's very good. Otherwise, don't act like you've got a chip on your shoulder because someone judged you on your childish writing. You've had some tough times, but so have many others before you, and so will many others after you. It is what it is, not a crutch to wave at people when they chastise you.

[flame off]

Now, if this discussion doesn't get back on track REALLY quick, it will be locked fairly quick.

You really want to learn? Don't worry about spending money and see if you can be an apprentice at a local lockshop for a bit. That experience will be more valuble than any pick you can buy.

The gist of what he said (for those who do not feel like reading a 10X20 sized square of text):
"I'm angry."
"Why are you diggin up the war axe we just burried mere hours ago?"
"I had a tough childhood."

Knows-Picker, no offence, but if you want the mass to read it more thouroughly, i'd put some more paragraphs in there if i were you. Just giving some pointers.


Yours,

me

this so pointless...

Raccoon just started this up again..... why the heck did you do this?

I mean it was over..... do you enjoy conflicts? :?

this thread warrants locking before more feelings are hurt.

scrap that... Raccoon was just being a wanker...

I also agree with the above sentiments. You are coming off as a bratty child. If asked to guess, I'd say you're 12~15 and your parents make 250K a year, but your mom divorced your dad when you were 6 or 8, and you haven't seen him since.


want to hear my stereotypical assessment of you?

you are some sad little guy who can't get laid and is upset because his porn-site won't load up fast enough... you enjoy being nasty to people because they were nasty to you when you were younger... this also leads me to believe you are unstable and likely repressed.

see how cool it is to start making assessments?


PS. You type like a girl. Stop with the '...' dot dot dot. Use your Enter Key after every 4 or 5 sentences. These are called Paragraphs.


Personaly I find the satirical tone of your post more annoying than his... you just thought you'd jump in to seem cool Raccoon....
