Page after page of {censored} talk and none of it mattered until I spoke up... apparently.

Is this ATL's version of the Gravitron?

Why is it that every time people like to reveal something personal about themselves the knives come out?


Glad you had fun busking, life isn't about making money. It's about enjoying. Lack of money can make that harder but trying to find something you love doing is the best way.


Maybe your busking career turns into an act, etc...

Yeah, I guess nothing completes a Sunday for some people than going online, dismissing a bad situation someone has found themselves in, calling them a liar and just out-right insulting them aprospos of nothing while you sit back with zero problems and a middle class lifestyle.

One foolproof method to not getting your loved ones and personal information made fun of on the internet is to not share pictures of loved ones and personal information on the internet. It sounds like an easy concept but many here can't seem to figure it out.


Next time instead of pics of your wife and your pooping problems, maybe just say, "I'm going busking for fun, any thoughts?"

..in an hour, which is basically min wage... and busking with his missus has got to be more fun that working in MuckDonalds, what's your point?


I have no idea why some people on this forum thought it would be good to have you back... you're an asshole so I can only presume they wanted you back for general 'lulz' which is about all your input on this forum is worth.

Or the flip side: people could stop being dicks.

It's funny how places like this always pretend to be a community until there is an opportunity to devour one of their own.

Hey, I've not said anything. I just think if you put pictures of your nearest and dearest up on the internet, together with personal sob stories you're going to attract commentry. Especially somewhere like this. I'm not condoning it.

I believe I've said this before, but "in real life" do you guys not give your breaus a hard time too? {censored} I say far worse things to my breaus and they don't get all butt hurt, they have at me back.


Jokes at the expense of others are awesome and are not meant to be taken seriously.

I'd like to think everyone here at HCFX is my friend, but I'm not naive enough to think that. It's much easier to just think that the people who are dicks to you are not your friends.


I guess there should be more sarcasm purple in his thread. Maybe that would help clarify people's "jokes"?

Pewts right. If I had a pale friend with pooping problems I would make fun of him all the time in real life. I'm actually nicer on the forum because I don't want to get banned idn_smilie.gif


Don't want to get made fun of? Don't share personal info. This is not a "community" by any means, there's over 400,000 members on this site.

Failing to oppose crap behavior is, in fact, condoning it. But you know, better to spend one's time and energy on making others feel worse so you can feel better? Wondering if those people know how foolish that looks?


To the OP, good luck and busk on! Busking can do a lot for you, musically: the constraints of needing to be ultra portable will help you think through song arrangements; the need to engage an audience will help your showmanship, etc. and you meet some great people.
