Hmm, I'd offer you a tissue for such a meaningful issue but alas, it wouldn't wipe away your deep-seated need to be perpetually offended. Dude, maybe you ought to take the time to get to know people on the forums before you decide you know enough to insult them. mirkwood, anatess2 and Vort 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing you need to be careful of is assuming that others don't know what you do. The most annoying person is the one who acts like he is so "worldly" because he went to Canada once on a day trip while ignoring people in the room who have had their passports stamped all over the world. Don't be "that guy". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roles in more than 6 different TV dramas in South Korea & 14 bit parts in S.K. dramas. Articles in 5 different art magazines globally. Hmm, One published children's book and content for 14 educational textbooks along with lead roles in 6 commercial films and character roles in 3 movies. Content for at least 3 educational DVD's. Yeah, I could go on but what's the point -you don't like me returning fire at your friend.

A word to the wise, Alex: Posts like this don't make you look knowledgeable and don't increase your credibility. They do rather the opposite, coming across as insecure self-promotion. You will do much better trying to argue your points on their merits. Whether you succeed or fail, you will be respected more for having offered your honest thoughts, however weak they may appear. This is also a surprisingly friendly group. If you stick around a while, you might find friends and learn stuff. Of course, if your purpose is more to instruct others on how smart you are and how they need what you're selling, you probably won't last long. I offer the earnest suggestion that you choose the first option. It's the more profitable route. mirkwood, pam, anatess2 and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Continue on with your attacks against my culture and my person. You like quoting Bible verses and such. Seems like you're too busy looking for Biblical signs to actually find time to live it.

We all know that a truly accomplished, successful, and intelligent person spends all their time telling others how accomplished, successful and intelligent they are.

I'd tell you my accomplishments, but I don't want to make you feel like a slacker. (Hint: creating universes is harder than you'd think, but totally do-able. If you're me.)

You need to do something about that. Actually, 1mL will get you at least 15 pages. I have, sec, doing math, 583 mL (approximately), that's 8745 pages. Yeah, I can get a few universes out of that. 1 minute ago, MormonGator said: I'm sure you and @LadyGator will be looking at those pool boys again. Duh.
