Some of the Aussie people, in my opinion, were being a little bit dick-ish about it all and continue to do so. Saying things like "We never thought this would bother anyone" is a lie.

We thought it might bother people for a little bit, admittedly. That was the idea of the whole joke, to have a quick laugh. We were all saying we didn't expect to get past one song, let alone Flower Child. FLOWER CHILD!

I hear you. As I said, I found it funny too, big picture-wise, but, I am not at all surprised that some people did not find it comical.

I felt bad when I saw he was caught up in the joke - I thought he was just starting to kind of get the drift of this place and feel more comfortable, and I hope he didn't get too pissed when he found he got fooled.

I've been there, prone to exaggeration over something I'm really excited about, concerning something I really love.
(Oops, not quick enough. That was in response to THE AMENDMENT.)
No spoken words said:I should qualify all of this by saying that I'm certainly no angel on this site, and have said all sorts of antagonistic things. I most certainly have my questionable moments, and I try to own up to them afterwards.

Colossal ass.

Which is different than being an asshole. Nobody knows what we're talking about except Coolian.
No spoken words said:The problem with being good at sarcasm, or being snarky, is that you sometimes forget that there are people out there that are 100% earnest. They don't get or recognize it, for better or worse.

My take is that it was so fake right from the get go I just laughed it off...I surprised to come back later and find people had taken it so seriously...
corianderstem said:I was on a U2 mailing list for a while and the people were too earnest for me. I slipped up and offended someone, because I was lame and forgot that not everyone likes snark.
So I left. Not the place for me.
