[Looneybomber]

There's grumpy people on NICO?

[Jesda]

Well, maybe 9 or 10 out of 100,000.

STILL.

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Did you actually make that video?

[Dattebayo]

I've never done crank before, I had no idea it was so big here!

[Jesda]

Did you actually make that video?

The most expensive part of the budget was getting those fighter jets to chase me in the desert. Otherwise, it was a few hours of downloading, converting, and editing.







This is also a redcoupe and dattebayo call-out thread.

[MinisterofDOOM]

I'm not cranky. I hate with a smile.

The video also made me smile.

Good job Jesda, enjoyed the video especially the song track. You should send it to Saab.

You don't have to rent fighter jets, just be in the right place at the right time. I got strafed by a pair vanning across Death Valley one winter. It was quite a thrill.

[costa_rican13]

indeed cranky ppl.. and i nominate you to be incharge of a nico photoshoot. since you have a large budget lol

[horubeets]

Nice,this video actually put me in a good mood.

[Dattebayo]

since you have a large budget lol

Indeed, it seems this way!

But some people just don't make mistakes with money.

Not really cranky.
Provide me with specific examples if you want me to explain better, but for the most part I just have different interests and opinions then a lot of people and since I am on a discussion forum, I felt it was the right place to discuss them.

I do however give dattebayo s*** a lot of the time because that guy is crazy hypocritical, comes across as having a worse attitude then me (I think) in most peoples threads but then cries about people being off topic in his own if he ever wants to start a serious one.

BICTH FIGHT 2010!!!!!!!

Oh sure. I want to keep my topic about my car being stolen on track, and that makes me a hypocrite? I don't go into threads of that nature and piss on them.

And pardon me for trying to steer all the ignoramuses around when they clearly don't even look at where they post. It's not all that serious around here anyway, so why try to make it so with all that now? Thanks a bunch.

[Red coupe]

Naw man, any time ANYONE shows the kinda attitude you give to almost everyone else you get a bit huffy about it.
Whether it be a thread you created or otherwise.

When people make a mistake, or post something dumb you are all over it.

When you make a mistake, or post something dumb you and it is called out you get hyper defensive.

If you responded to your own posts I think you would break down into tears, lol.

[MellowZ32]

me-ow!

[dre1507]

*Sings* It's about to be a WHAAAT? girl fight!! They bout to throw tampooooons!!!

[Razi]

MR. BLUE SKY PLEASE TELL US WHY YOU HAD TO HIDE AWAY FOR SO LONG.

Redcoupe vs Dattebayo !
Who will win the e-fight?

[Dattebayo]

I'm only e-fighting cause he wants to. I'm sorry, I can't make everyone happy, so I usually don't!

When I make mistakes, I talk them out with whomever, I don't fight because of it. I don't know what you've been reading! I call people dingus cause it's funny, it's a pirate cuss word. And the word idiot doesn't upset me in the least. Hyper defensive? I think you read too much into what is typed and hear what you want to hear.

My "cavalier" attitude comes from dealing with stupid people all my life, what's your excuse?

[Red coupe]

TBH, these last few posts (pointg towards "cat fight" and "me-ow" type ones) are probably the best demonstrator of why there are so many "cranky" people on the internet.

Regardless of how hard I try, there are no half measures on forums apparently.
It is seemingly impossible to have an opinion with out people assuming the entire weight of your being is behind it.

Typically I am hanging out, watching TV reading over the forums... At some point I will see something I think is wrong/disagree with and make some comment. Then I go make bagel bites and watch southpark.

Take this thread... Jesda asks a specific question, referring to me by name. So I drop in and answer.
My answer involves Dave, and he as a different opinion about it... so he give his two cents.

Now I can only speak for myself, but I can promise you guys I will not be thinking about this thread when I go to sleep... I can only hope the same is true for Dave.

But the point is we were asked a question, and we both took what... 4 minutes to throw up an answer.
I can here for discussion, why would I not respond when someone makes a statement involving me?
Now everyone is on about girl/cat fight, when I barely realized we were "arguing"

This is the point I am trying to make... I am posting on a forum. You think if I ever met Dave in real life I would be like "Don't even shake my hand f*** walk away...."? Hell I don't know the guy the most that could be said is I have an opinion on the style in which he posts on internet automotive forums. How serious is that?

I don't think me or Dave are going for blood here, I don't think either one is all too worried about this thread or the "argument" with in it.

There is a difference between having an opinion, and having a strong opinion... This is a leisurely chat forum and I see no reason to wait until I find a life or death topic to express mine.

So I guess I would say imo me being "cranky" is mostly just people over reacting to an unimportant opinion of mine that I would otherwise not have given more then a minute or two of thought until someone turns it into a discussion.

[dre1507]

i got my money on dave, but coupe has really quick and sharp e-fists. it'll be a good battle and the winner will be decided by whomever is able to use the opponent's force against him.

[Dattebayo]

And they say "print" is dead. HAH I say.

I actually just read the whole post up there, and I can say for sure, that was way more thought than I put into something for Gen Chat in a long while...

[Razi]

It's way too easy to come across as a jackass on the Internet.
So, I guess it takes a bit of effort to express opposing opinions without coming across that way.

But also most of the time, people are more worried about whether or not they should be offended, instead of whether or not they are wrong.

[Dattebayo]

Yeah, let me loose on some British folks.

[dre1507]

yo yo. where's the e-blood? i don't see it gushing.

[Red coupe]

Gotta check one of the other threads man.

This one is not for fighting, its for explaining why we fight.
Get it right, s***.

[MellowZ32]

quick and sharp e-fists.

"e-fisting"

[Dattebayo]

Dingus.

[dre1507]
