[quote user="Tracklayer"][quote user="animal8526"][quote user="Tracklayer"][quote user="Lynda"] <p>[quote user="Tracklayer"][I'm an extreme Misanthropic for which the meaning can be found in most dictionaries or on the web. Regards, Tracklayer [/quote]</p><p>Well, no, Tracklayer. You can't possibly be "extreme misanthropic." <em>Misanthropic</em> is an adjective. On the other hand, you could be characterized as <em>extremely </em>misanthropic, or you may be an extreme <em>misanthrope</em>.</p><p>I, however, am extremely didactic. <span class="smiley">[:D]</span></p><p><span class="smiley">It would appear we're all anal about something.</span></p><p><span class="smiley">Lynda (and all about configuring proper sentence consists <span class="smiley">[;)]</span>)</span></p><p>[/quote]</p><p>So I stand corrected Lynda... But the fact still remains. And this will be my last reply on the forum. I don't know why I ever joined in the first place. I've not ever applied anything that I've ever read here to the hobby due to the fact that I know all I need to as far as I'm concerned, but hope I've been of some help to someone out there with what I've offered. Good bye and best wishes to you all with your hobby and your modern world. Tracklayer</p><p>[/quote] </p><p>well, if thats you taking your proverbial ball and going home, sorry to hear it. I'm new here, but I have to think that a person with well over 1000 posts had to help someone somewhere. couldn't have all been just about detesting us other humans. infact, I have to think the evidence would prob lean toward your other misanthrope buddies (there's a funny image, and extreme in oxy-moron) casting you out of the club... I would think helping another one of us human scum may be against the rules.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>I'm sorry animal8526, Lynda and everyone. I'm not feeling well at all lately, and blew my stack about something that was said on another thread that offended me that most of the time I would have ignored. Please forgive me for shooting off my stupid mouth. As for my being a Misanthrope. I work hard to try and overcome it every day, but if you only knew how hard it was for me to leave my house just to go to the grocery store maybe you would understand. The truth is, it's not so much that I despise the modern world as I am afraid of it. I suffered a head injury back in 1981 on a construction job accident and this is one of the long term problems that it's caused me. I guess we all have our crosses to bare. This is just one of mine. My sincerest respect to you all. Tracklayer </p><p> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Tracklayer,</p><p>though I did not agree with the specific views you had presented earlier, I honestly gave you some respect for being fourthright. with this last post, you have gained that much more. no apology needed. I just want you to know I meant no disrespect or offense... my comment about you prob not being as huge of a misanthrope was intented to convey to you that I didn't think you could be nearly as bad as you thought.</p><p>lastly, as far as distrust of humankind, I feel you. I've spent almost 4 years in the army, the last of which was spent in Iraq, and I have seen some of the worst things people can do. tracklayer, you have my sincerest respect for dealing with what you deal with. and nothing but my goodwill. I hope to be able to tap into your knowledge at some point. till then, take care. no ill will here my friend.</p><p> Tim</p>
