I assume you think foreplay isn't part of sex.

Cooperstown is not:

Yet Salamanca is in New York, as are Cuba and Poland, not to mention Warsaw and Belfast. And . . . ease the seat back . . . Panama.

Speaking of board productivity, I went through the userlist and culled anyone whose last visit to the board was the day they reigstered. We're now down to 1100 users. Half of which are Penske socks (retired).

Yea us.

And the great sock rush of 2006 is on!

Fine, then she should assert that and not be all passive agressive about it by posting here.

Do you know what passive agressive means? Because this post tends to indicate that you do not. Posting about her irritation with the hour of the call here is not passive agressive.* If she were to make "joking" comments about the hour in Los Angeles on the call, that would be considered passive agressive.

n(hepful!)cs


*unless... is someone here the lawyer who set up the early call?

I dissent. Posting here complaining, while saying nothing to the firm/atty about the call or not giving clear directively initially about the preferred time when asked, is to me, passive agressive.

It is actually passive (or is it passive passive?). But keep throwing around terms you don't understand if you like.

We are not a part of the exchange. Mere observers! Yay us!

The agressive part is to still complain about on an anon chat board.

Thanks for my daily dose of condescension. I can't live w/o it. And yes, I still like to throw around terms "I just don't understand because I'm the board dunce" yeah.

Actually, a good example of passive passive is when you? posted about that luncheon with the new recruit and the litigator steamrolled the conversation with her war stories and you let her. passive, passsive, indeed.

Yay us indeed! I am passively enjoying this exchange, or at least I was until just now, when I started aggressively enjoying the exchange by letting you all know about my enjoyment. PPNYC, do I correctly understand the terms?

Indeed. That was passive of me. You think you are insulting me? Passive is always bad?

That reminds me of that Joe Pesci line "you think I am a clown, I amuuuuse you?" heh.

Why is everything construed as an insult? That was an exemplary example of passive.

This is an exemplary example of passive-aggression. Well played.

I assumed you went back to work, went into her office, and tore her a new one; you were only stifling it with a recruit in your presence. Aggressive-aggressive!

Fringy, you should try the white beer. It's Belgian, called Ho-something.

I have never found in white beer in the United States. What white beer brands are available here?
