How irritating is it to come to the GD page and see Last post by tribdog on every single thread? I know it has to irritate some of you. I'm not going to change my ways, but I'd still like to know.

you know what? I think I might have started this exact same thread, with maybe even the exact same title in the past. I'm too busy posting to go check though.
 
right now I have the last 13 threads and I'm still getting irritated by the slow response time.
 
maybe I should try reading what everyone else writes.
 
It's not IRRITATING,it's ANNOYING... :-p

Learn the difference...

okay, on a scale of one to ten how ANNOYING am I?
1 being as annoying as a slight breeze messing up your hair.
5 as annoying as a pesky fly who likes landing on your nose and keeps returning everytime you shoo him away
10 car alarm at 5 am after going to bed at 3am
 
Okay,how about 13:You're in the mood and she's not... :-p

I can't begin to fathom someone not being in the mood when I'm around. I'm sexy. lol, just kidding. I'm in one of those moods today.

You are in the mood or you're not?

At any rate, i can sympathize, every night/morning between about 2 am and 5 am I'm the most recent post on every thread. Drives me nuts too.

I'm going to go vomit after typing that. Not because its you, but because i used <3 as a word in a grammatical constuct (really can't call THAT a sentence).
