[quote user="Willy2"][quote user="zardoz"][quote user="Murray"][quote user="Willy2"] <p>Do any of you have any idea how pathetic you all are? This topic has been discussed numerous times over the past several months. Each time, it ends with the same result... some railfans are obsessed with waving and their day is ruined if the engineer or conductor doesn't acknowledge them, some like a wave but don't need one, and some could care less. Some crew members are happy to wave if they aren't busy, some wave only sometimes, and some never wave for various reasons. </p><p>I just summed up the last 60 posts in a few sentences. Now let's see if we can get 60 more from this topic, plus about 10 more topics on waving before the year ends. I'm not saying that this topic needs to be banned, but it seems very frivolous to go through this time after time. Don't you have family and friends to spend time with? Maybe a beer to drink?</p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>I sense anger and stress coming from you Willy.</p><p>Do you need a hug?</p><p> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Maybe school's getting to him.....</p><p>Willy: lighten up. Nobody forced you to read all "60" posts. </p><p>Yeah, I know it's a silly discussion; yet.....here we both are reading it and replying to it......</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>What we have here, is a failure to communicate. </p><p>Let's get this straight: </p><p>1) No, nobody forced me to read this entire topic. I did it of my own accord. </p><p>2) I thought I made a very reasonable statement. I still believe I did, but in the eyes of some people, it was not reasonable. Those who seemed offended by my recent posts have my most sincere apologies. I acknowledge that "pathetic" was not the best choice of words. </p><p>3) The fact that school ended two weeks ago means that it isn't "getting to me". I'm sure that it's fun to discuss what might or might not be happening in my life, but I would appreciate it if you would be kind enough to stop doing so. To be honest, there aren't any ongoing calamities. </p><p>4) A hug would be nice. </p><p>5) I'll now leave all of you to continue your animated discussion on waving and I won't interrupt again. I've learned my lesson... it's not right to break into a discussion about waving. </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Relax will ya? You're gonna be ulcer ridden before you are 20. <span class="smiley">[8D]</span></p><p> </p><p> </p>
