Today’s Word of the Week has another personal anecdote attached to it. Earlier this week I placed a rather terse and accusatory post on one of my social networking sites. It wasn’t pretty I can assure you.
I had felt slighted and a bit put off by the direction of the site that has been going downhill for a while. Forums are a dying breed and that, my dear, is a very sad thing indeed. Everyone just wants to “twitter” in short nonsensical bursts or “beat their chests” on other personal sites. Neither one tickles my fancy and both are rather off putting, in my view.
Once I hit the post button, I instantly regretted doing it. Rarely am I that impulsive but stress gets to us all occasionally. Luckily for me the few members left set me straight and I have to be grateful for that. It would have been easy for them to give it to me in the neck because I was acting like Shrek in a frock!
All is well now at etaBlog. Serenity has been restored.
