everyone_knowns_everyone kerry but i don't is there a little blather scene in any of your towns? have you guys met each other, anyone? i feel as if i am missing out. i was just wondering. there are so many little... you know. friendships. personal ones within blather, but also not in blather. just curious, please respond. 020430 ... argh Shut Up. Blathes like this are why you don't have blather friends. 020430 ... kerry ARGH fuck you! 020501 ... silentbob ok, lets forget that retarded argument happened and i'll say this. sometimes blatherers show their friends to blather. thats how this happens. ive shown a LOT of people. I also talk to a lot of blather people through email or the internet. i've only ever met one, and now i don't even think of her as a blatherfriend but a real life friend. there have been some people who have met other blatherers, or met friends through blather and then met in real life and have now become good friends. i am not one of them. but not as many as it might seem. most people just linger and blather once a day and find their blathes covered by constant blatherers such as myself. 020501 ... pralines&cream I'm not part of "blather scene". The only person I know is optical discretion, and I introduced her to blather, and she hasn't blathed much anyway. I am all alone. :) 020501 ... silentbob Yeah. i'm all alone too. there have been people i have introduced to blather, but i don't consider them my scene. they are individuals. we are not part of a gang. is there anyone here who feels like they are in a neat little clique that excludes people and doesn't let people in? 020501 ... silentbob personally i think if you blather here, you are part of "blather scene" get it? 020501 ... pralines&cream i get it let's rephrase: we are all a part of "blather scene," but not all a part of "blather clique" 020501 ... silentbob ok pralines. name everyone you think is in the "blather clique" and lets have them defend themselves. Tell specific features that make them a clique and things that they do to you to make you feel left out. 020502 ... Daria prailines is just compain because of being misfit in real life and on the computer. Sad. 020502 ... silentbob but its so dumb because there aren't a lot of people i find myself associating with all the time and being around and thats ok. i don't complain about it. i think it can be kind of cool. i don't even see blather as a clique. i dont see litle cliques in blather. I know there are people who are friends inside and outside of blather. but its stupid to think that those friendships go so far as to have a nice little elite sect where just they are allowed in. does she consider it a clique when someone doesn't respond to what she has to say? Or that it doesn't occur to people to bring her up in conversation? that isn't a clique. two people having a conversation isn't a clique. and i've read through blather a little in the last few minutes, and she isn't left out either. if she FEELS left out, thats her own thing. i just don't get it 020502 ... no reason i think this situation is being read into too much...all blather really is is that--"blather", meaning a place to say anything and everything. people often respond when they relate to what has been posted, or when they have something to say. if friendships happen to be made from them, then good, but if not, it's nothing to be taken personally. 020502 ... silentbob true dat G 020502 ... kerry thanks bobby that clears up a whole lot 020502 ... kerry i actually feel kind of like an ass for that blathe that started this whole stupid analytical thread... sorry, i was having kind of a bad day at the time, but i'm over it now. 020502 ... pralines&cream i didn't mean it nearly as contemptfully as daria perceived it ... sorry if the word clique implies negative conotations ... I simply mean that some of us have friends on here who we know outside of blather, and some of us don't - some of us simply blathe alone. Perhaps I should have said "outside friendships" or something more PC. Anyway, that's all I meant. blah. 020503 ... Daria I get it, maybe I'm just too mean, cuz I think the worst possible thing. Sorry, I'm feeling a little sadistic lately. 020506 ... silentbob no, because pralines did come off as really contemptful. and now what she is saying sounds completely different from what she said before. knowing someone outside of blather and therefore understanding them better has nothing to do with a "clique" a clique is a small exclusive group of people. Two people knowing each other outside of blather is just a relationship or a friendship, and isn't necessarily exclusive. two people who know each other outside of blather, who don't cater to someone's every need and arent overly considerate in inviting them into conversations, or even disagreeing with what someone else has to say thats not a clique. 020507 ... silentbob i'm such an asshole 030719 ... no reason oh yeah... i remembern this blather. (yep, i'm an asshole too) 030719 ... Strideo argh: "Shut Up. Blathes like this are why you don't have blather friends." ha ha, I wouldn't let that bother you. there is always someone pretentious enough to act like that around_the_next_blather_corner. ... 030719 what's it to you? who go blather from
