Leslie : "Well, gee Rick, we all came out and played nice and answered your questions, and then you duck out of the thread you started saying you don't want to play anymore, but we're all wrong about it anyway. "
1. 'we all came out and played and answered your questions'
- really ??
one of my Q's was how do u define a social butterfly......your answer : a golden.....sorry Leslie, i don't consider that a definition by any stretch. but if you were playing, then i can understand why you might say i don't want to play :-(
2. 'you started saying you don't want to play anymore, but we're all wrong about it anyway.'
- NEVER said that but please cut/paste what i wrote that made you think that i thought you guys are ALL WRONG about it :-( :-(
- for me it's just another example of reading between the lines but not paying attention to the lines that were written
(common here on the WDF...Sarah just gave an example on another thread.......did i jump all over and slam Gina and say "you're wrong" ?)
Sarah : i can't remember reading your definition of a social butterfly either. please cut/paste again if you wrote one and refresh my memory
- actually i don't even remember reading any answers to any of my Q's ... does that mean you too were playing but i wasn't ?
and did Matt, Misty, Bob, Howard, Khoi or Nicole give a definition ? they all responded to the thread, but mostly talked about their dogs. Khoi finally jumped in too //rotflmao//
i would think ALL of the above people are perfectly capable of coming up with a definition if they really wanted to
i've already sent my detailed views on the topic because i was serious about discussing a common issue that i think can be misunderstood as far as the genetic component vs the aspect of a trained behavior
.....to people who asked and were serious about hearing my viewpoint
- oddly enuff, no one wrote anything about the reasons except for "genetics" side
- i am definitely NOT the smartest knife in the drawer, but no one needed to remind me there was a genetic component, and that's why i POLITELY said i wanted to get beyond the obvious and why i was surprised that aspect was never brought up
......NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM WAS I STATING OR EVEN IMPLYING THAT YOU ARE ALL WRONG :-(
amen
if you still wanna read my "mini book", PM me with serious answers to my Q's and convince me you're interested in my take on the subject and i'll be glad to shoot it to you
i'll try my best to ignore any more sarcasm here, but like a train wreck, i expect i'll read em anyway
sure, i often look at issues from a different perspective......but i rarely if EVER have i said anything remotely close to : "my way is the best way and you are wrong" ..... and i've posted a few thousand times on this forum !
- i can only remember taking that extreme of a view once
if anyone disagrees, then take Sarah's advice and stop the BS and quote when i have said that or even IMPLIED that...in ANY response i've ever posted
- it gets old to hear that crap, but for sure, i don't lose any sleep over it //rotflmao//
amen again, but don't take THAT word at face value ... i'm not religious //LOL//
