I just want to make a little note here. People take me too seriously around here.
If I say something that's a little out there, it's 99.9% of the time intended as a joke. That's just the person I am. I don't intend any of it in a malicious way. I like posting snarky jokes, I like being sarcastic. I like having some sense of wittiness to my replies. I like alluding to things that happened in a way that seems spiteful, ironically. And I like having some sassiness in what I have to say. In fact, I'm surprised I have a job still because I make these same types of jokes to my bosses and coworkers when I'm on the clock. And they seem to just eat it up.
Unfortunately, to most people here, it seems my humor tends to go over their heads or they read it in a way that it wasn't intended to be read in and either get offended, or have to confront me about it and address my attitude problems.
Anyway, I just wanted to post this because I'm pretty much just tired of people assuming things about me based on jokes I make when to me they're just jokes, and if I post it, I was probably laughing while I did it. That said, I'm not going to cater my sense of humor to anyone and I accept whatever "punishments" the staff decide to give me. Since I left the staff, I've received four infractions for jokes. All of which I have been accepting of. But this message isn't really directed to the staff, it's directed to the members.
