@darlicious You are the bomb! Thanks so much, it was driving me nuts. I thought dementia was setting in lol.

Here is a great example just happened. The first pic shows my reply successfully posted. When I clicked on go to your post the second pic happens. You can see the message is nothing that I would consider spam triggering. First time in over a year I've been here that I have seen this.

This is slang. It means "You're awesome", "You're cool", or "You're great".

@kb_mv lol I didn't know exactly what it meant as my kids never said to me "Mom, you are the bomb! Well now I know why. 😒

@darlicious I agree with @kb_mv , you are the bomb! You also helped me find my lost posts. thanks so much 🌹

@RosieR @darlicious It's very similar to "You're the bee's knees" lol.

Apparently the older we get we channel our inner clean freak requiring meticulous order in our lives or chaos will take over and the inmates will run amouk casually inserting humour where only help is allowed......serenity now, serenity now.......!!

This is a cell phone service support site. The rewards program is a way to provide a discount for members for helping others with service issues. Humour is allowed and no one said that jokes aren't allowed to be made, but The Lounge is the the category that was created specicially for such socialization.

@computergeek541

We both know that the lounge was created for that purpose but its hardly practical when making a funny remark in a thread to pull up stakes and beat it to the lounge to make a comment. Sure if turns into 3, 4, 5 or more posts by 2 or 3 members.....2 comments by 2 helpers or helper and OP his hardly disrupting the thread. Just let it peter out naturally and if it doesnt then move it. Humour is a great healer and diffuser in difficult situations. Do we want the community to be cold and sterile like so many other communities.....? Part of what makes public mobiles stand out is its diversity and personality.

Doctors that have good bedside manner have infinitley better patient outcomes than those with more skill but poor people skills.....

Any more personal attacks against me that you wish to share?

@darlicious "Doctors that have good bedside manner have infinitley better patient outcomes than those with more skill but poor people skills....."

Have lived long enough to experience both, and prefer technical to people skills by a large measure.
But do enjoy some humour, especially running jokes as they are an indicator of effective relationships within a team.

@Luddite

I dont know about that....my surgeon is at the top of his field. If he had a bedside manner and taught that or have someone who has a good bedside manner teach it to his students im sure we could have avoided at least 1 of the 3 surgeries ive had on the same hip. Communicating effectively, listening and taking constructive feedback from your patient is important for any doctor or professional to continue to learn and improve.

@computergeek541

I'm sure you'll be the first know about it......constructive criticism we all have our own ways of looking at it and deciding how to use it if at all.

Re: Koodo prepaid port

computergeek541 — Sun, 22 Nov 2020 14:11:30 GMT

Constructive criticism is fine. You can agree or disagree with me moving content that I decided was not Public Mobile related. Comparing me to a doctor with no people skills isn't constructive criticism, but is a deliberate insult and offensive to me as well as medical professionals.

Re: Koodo prepaid port

darlicious — Sun, 22 Nov 2020 14:28:04 GMT

@computergeek541

My surgeon is a brilliant man who has changed many many lives for the better but he still has terrible bedside manner.....i shouldnt have said poor people skills as that was incorrect. For that i apologize.

I have an open mind but this will be a tough row to hay for the two of us to ever understand each others motivations but its not impossible.......

@darlicious : Maybe a path to reconciliation is to not post all the sniping, snark directed, thinly veiled or overtly, at those people trying to keep a semblance of order of all the chaos. You mentioned in a long ago discussion about defending your honour and integrity or something. Well you throwing crap around is causing just that in others.

I've had multiple bits of off-topic asides moved around. Oh well. One of them could really actually have been properly moved to a different category. I said my piece privately. Oh well. It doesn't matter enough to care enough.

@Anonymous

Since you seem to seek a response.....you could look in the mirror with yours. The two initial responses by @computergeek541 and @Luddite perfectly proved my point. Every person has their unique good or for that matter bad qualities. We cant always possess the ones we want or think we have.....

Admittedly perhaps others read more into what i say than i realize im saying or intended to say. Or what starts off as opinion with humour turns into the very opposite. You are very good at voicing your opinion to stir the pot all over again....

In regards to my initial opinion.....moving two posts....one from me and one from @kb_mv i felt and still feel was overkill. There are plenty of threads filled with socialization that can be spliced and diced......and plenty from the past......
