Do people on other forums think that your annoying?

Pfft... make your own damned food. I'm busy eating my sammich.

I'm not hurt anymore, but I've still got to say this. If anybody is annoyed....no, feels threatened by my posting about The Kinks, speaking my mind, being myself and using my liberty and freedom to the fullest, there are other forums that they can go to. I won't stop them.

I was annoying people on the message board for the band "Great Big Sea" about 4 years ago, it's a long story, but anyway, here goes:

There was a website about one of the band members, that had an offensive name and had some offensive content on it. Anyways, it was meant as a joke but I didn't know that, I thought people were just saying that, and the people who made the site just said it was a joke because they didn't want people to get upset about it. Everyone else on the Great Big Sea site liked this site, except me. There was another site like this too. I told people that I didn't like the second site, but they thought I was referring to the one with the offensive title. They told me that I couldn't be upset about the site because it was joke. I mentioned that even if it IS a joke, it's not my kind of humour. They didn't like that very much. They just said that the world could use more of that humour. I also mentioned that it was OK if they like the site, but that I didn't like it personally. This is what one of the other members said about the incident:

"I'm only saying this one more. M. is almost 40 years old. He's a big boy, and is behind the b***dy most of the site. It's a JOKE, and M. KNOWS THIS. If M. were that much of a baby, he'd have jumped off the bus years ago.
Do you have any idea as to the nonsense a bunch of guys can come up with? M. is a grown man, here." (M. is the person they were talking about)

So, I decided to tell people that I had Asperger's. Big mistake. I was nervous about posting this was I wasn't communicating all that politely when I posted the message and someone, I guess, got offended it and mentioned so in a rude way. I told her that I didn't meant to be offensive. Most everyone took the other person's side. A couple days later, I posted something and made a few spelling mistakes as the Great Big Sea site's spell check doesn't work on my computer and I can't use a dictionary to save me life. They corrected me in a mean way so I responded saying the at I KNEW that I was a useless speller. I also made another mistake that I don't really want to get into and people told me that it was basically a dumb mistake and I shouldn't have to their advice and listen to them because they are older. The person who responded to me when I was talking about my AS, wrote a really, really, really nasty post saying you-don't-want-to-know-what. A couple nice people and moderators put an end to it. I stayed off the site for a little while.

When I went back on, I mentioned that I thought of one of the band members Tim Horton's (That's a Canadian dount shop) because I saw him eat a dount in a video once. They said that I wasn't allowed to have any thoughts of that type (they thought I was thinking inappropriate thoughts about the band member, but I wasn't). They told me that I wasn't allowed to dislike people who didn't like the band. (I said something like, over-exaggerating) and I HAD to listen to other music as well. (I do, there just aren't any other bands that I really like, what can I say, I have Asperger's! ) , so I was over-exaggerating in that aspect too. People were insisting on me listening so I became contrary. (Real life incident) That's all that happened. She said "It's a world full of different people". (Which she didn't seem to be understanding). Again, some nice people stopped the fight.

There were some other incidents too, but those one's were really bad.

OK, so now that you know my life story.............................

I would also like to apologize for the misconduct that I've used in my closing post in this thread, last night. I don't have to explain myself. All that people have to do is look at my ranking. That explains it all. It seems that the sensitive people have to work at keeping it together, while everybody else gets to kick back, having a big party and relaxing.

Deep down inside, I feel I've probably annoyed various people here on WP if not the intermet mainly through the fact my use of the grammar rules is hideously bad.Still, I don't type the way I do out of the notion of trying to pester anyone.No, in fact I do my best to get my points across in a meaningful way as possible but, if I screw up then I take accountability of such..

Of course there are people k'vetching about me on other forums, I've read it.

I think I'm annoying here. I'm always either a joker, or completely insane and unstable. I have no sensible intellectual middle ground.

I fly under the radar on every other forum I'm on though.

is saying you find someone annoying a personal attack now? confused..
