Better I Leave


    Okay, it's taken me a couple of days of reading on and off, but I finally made it through this thread.  Can I get my medal now?

     

    Scratch that-don't need the medal.  Whoever's bogarting that joint, just pass it down...

      Well that could be a bonus but I was thinking more like Ritalin.

       

      Do you know if I was a kid nowadays I would probably be hopped up on Ritalin.   I am ADHD and OCD which is an awesome combo.  When I was 8 I had ten trips to the ER because I was a wild child.

        A funny term I heard for "un-friended" is "Frumped" as in Friend-Dumped.  A couple of interesting things about how FB works:

        • If someone frumps you, you receive no notification.
        • FB likes to show you a list of suggestions for new friends, people you aren't friends with that you have something in common with.
        • A common way of finding out someone has frumped you is by noticing that they show up in your "suggested friends" list.

         

        unfriending is also known as defriending... and a lot of us call it getting DEEFed.

         

        I was going to point out the third bullet earlier in this lovely thread.  That's usually how I knew someone had tossed me.  Because we probably had many of the same friends, facebook would (and I assume still does, I dunno) cheerfully suggest this person to me as a potential friend.  "But wait, he's already my friend. Oh. Was.  He DEEFed me.")

            "C" is for cookie.  That's good enough for me.

            You may be right

              Indeed.

               

               

               

              The entertainment value in this thread has been priceless.

                  To keep the baseball theme, but from the offensive rather than defensive side, perhaps a Grand Slam?

                      So a priest, a minister and a rabbi walk into a bar.  The bartender says, "So what is this?  Some kind of a joke?"

                       

                      Bahahahahaha! Best thing in this thread.

                              General advice is good for general guidance. When dealing with a specific situation for a specific person, it's not always obvious how to apply general advice. This is also why it sometimes makes sense to seek the advice of a coach instead of a running forum.

                               

                              Unless you've been running for 18 months or more, then you don't need a coach.

                                since those three took the express line to get to the front, do they qualify for the Aladdin Magic carpet medal or do they have to wait to be cured before getting a finishers medal?
