Chill Time

[Zoomer]

Whoa, easy boy.. I was merely suggesting things - no need to jump on me..

They will either remain in their current condition or be sanded and resealed as they originally were.

Here we go, Zoomer got his feelings hurt with capital letters again.
If you like the "look" of the floors then work around them and stay with the rustic theme. I just don't know about the appliances with a rustic theme. I'm sure that there's a way way to preserve the floors and still putting something modern over them, but if that's out of the question then I don't know.... I'll say it one more time, that black stain is the only thing that I can think of that would tie those floors in with those appliances.

[Zoomer]

No, not feelings hurt, and you don't have to be such a shmuck - here we go having JoMo being such a shmuck again.. haha.. I fart in your general direction.. No longer are you called JoMo in my book - you're a shmuck. That's right, John Shmuck. Welcome to Motoring|Underground, John Shmuck.

Since you're being a douchebag, as usual, I thought I would just play along with your silly game.. what's the matter, John, did you forget to take your medication today? No car sales for you John today? How about Ben Folds, he didn't come in and lift your spirits? Aw, poor baby John.. perhaps you could go refill your prescription at the local drug store.. better yet, if you are out of cash, perhaps you can buy them off the street... that ought to do you good...

WTF? Chill out zoomer.

Koopa simply said he wasn't going to tile the floor and then nicely explained the sentimental value of the wood floors....then you tell him to go easy and include an angry face smiley? Then you go on to attack jomo. Watch what you read into when it comes to posts. I don't think Koopa was trying to insult you or anything....just explaining himself and his reasoning behind keep the floors wood.

[Zoomer]

Rally - please let the admins handle this. I have reported this to M|U administration. He should not be attempting to mess with me everytime I blink the wrong way, sorry, but that's the way it's been for a while, and I am just done with his douchebagness...

you don't really want admin input at this time...... ivan is working his ass off, and i am dealing with a lot of crap.... then poor miles is trying to plug holes and andy is off in idaho.

[Zoomer]

I know they are harsh. The fact is it's not the first time he (JoMo) has started with me, and I just won't stand for it anymore. He's an Mu team member, and he should act like one. I don't back down from conflict, and that's basically what he was trying to do - was create more conflict. Thanks for your input, and I believe this one is over.

I don't sense any jumping going on...

[Zoomer]

Ivan,
JoMo is no longer joking with me, and he should be told not to mess with me anymore. It's not the first time and if someone doesn't tell him, it won't be the last. I don't tolerate his being a douchebag to me.. not anymore. He's tried a few times, and this is just it.. no more - I don't want him starting crap with me anymore.

And please, I don't want this to be a Zoomer bashing thread. All this because I was merely stating something to Bill (Koopa) who happens to be a friend of mine that we've become friends over time on M|U. Sheesh. You're barking up the wrong tree - I will not back down from conflict - and the one causing this was JoMo, not me.

Thanks though, Ivan.

Despite me having said "please", that wasn't a suggestion; that was a warning.

[Zoomer]

Warning? About what? It's not me who you should be warning.. perhaps you should look at JoMo?

people joke in different ways.

- directed at everyone.
if you don't like someone's personality, just ignore them.

[Zoomer]

Thanks Hollis. I agree.

One of your regulations of being a Mu team member is not to be a douche. Please remind JoMo of that, and I will consider this entire thing resolved.

Let's reassess the situation...

Koopa:

I will NOT do tiled floors, zoomer. ....goes on to explain sentimental reasons behind keeping the wood floors in a rather calm fashion.

Zoomer:

Whoa, easy boy.. I was merely suggesting things - no need to jump on me.. <--angry face and "whoa, easy boy" suggest that you felt that Koopa was jumping on you and you were upset by that.

Jomo:

One sentence joke stating that Zoomer was upset by Koopa's use of capital letters in "NO" , "NOT", and "OR". To some extent this seems to be true as it's the only thing that I can find that could be viewed as remotely offensive and would lead to the angry face posted in response where you seem to feel "jumped on".

Zoomer:

Feels insulted by Jomo's remark and goes off on a harsh personal insult about Jomo's life and job.

Again....I think you read too deeply into things sometimes. Koopa was never jumping on you in the first place. He just gently disgareed with you and explained himself in a very nice fashion. Then, when you were upset by Koopa's explanation.....Jomo made a quick one sentence joke that suggested that you shoudn't take Koopa's post too seriously. No one was jumping on your or insulting you. Koopa just wants to keep the wood, and jomo just wants you to not get upset over simple posts.

[Konky]

holy crap, i missed all of this

[midnitecoop]

Since I was quoted into this, I have one thing to say...
This obviously wasn't over if a whole thread was dedicated to the issue..
also, the only one creating more conflict has been U since you felt the need to extend the issue.

If you agreed it would have been ignored....
