The original TICTH thread was getting too long, so it has been archived.
Unfortunately, I don't have anyone to consign to hell right now, because after yesterday, they're all dead.
But at least I have begun the thread. [ 10. March 2003, 01:44: Message edited by: Erin ]

What on earth do you mean, "trains you can understand." Every train conversation I've heard is always, "Hi, I'm on the train, I'll be home soon. Goodbye." Some people, I'm not making this up...update their friends with EVERY STOP! "Hi, I'm at Park Street, on the train. Oh, now I'm at Downtown Crossing" except those stops are underground so they CAN'T call on their little phones there...but fortunately They're planning on installing special lines so soon you will be able to phone from anywhere on the subway! Hooray!However I would like to reserve a special place in Hell (if I'm allowed) for people who phone from stores, i.e. video stores, "Hi, I'm at the video store, what do you want to see? Well, they have [reads off the names of EVERY title].

TICTH - people who can't stand me using my mobile phone - and people who don't have one.

TICTH - people who refer to the Newcastle area as 'the north east' - when in fact it is 'the north east of england'.

TICTH people who offended by the fact that I do not have a mobile phone. Why should they dictate how I live my life?

The people who annoy me are the ones who assume because I have a mobile phone I am available twenty four hours a day. This point is insufficiently appreciated by those people who say things like: "What's the point of having a mobile phone if you don't leave it switched on ?" To which the only adequate reply is "You are confusing me with the emergency services". [fixed UBB code] [ 24 August 2001: Message edited by: tomb ]

TICTH all those who think that someone who has failed to "accept God" in their life is somehow at fault just because some bloke in a black dress has told them there is a God out there.And while I'm at it, I want anyone who thinks that commiting suicide is a ticket to Hell in a handbasket down here too. Oh, yes, and anyone who has the immense gall to tell me that I am lying when they don't like my life not fitting in to their nice, comfortable theology. The Shadow Lover & & & !!! & &c. .c& 0 ^

This whole thread is a joke, isn't it? I mean, we're not really consigning people to Hell, and nobody who has any modicum of charity would wish to do so (which is why I don't think God does so but that's a subject for another thread!). It's shorthand for "this really irritates me." And Howard Ingham's column about St. Mary of Egypt really irritated me. Let's make fun of other people's sacred traditions. Let's hold other people's beliefs and practices up -- not for scrutiny, which I welcome, but for ridicule. That really bugs me. We have a television show here in the States called Letterman or Late Night with Letterman or something, and he brings people on who are maybe a little slow mentally, and then makes fun of them in such a way that the audience is howling with laughter, but the guest doesn't realize they're being made fun of. I hate that show for just that reason, and never watch it. He's a mean-spirited little man. As Howard Ingham strikes me. Alex

They are, aren't they? Just steal a Gideons one from a hospital... BTW, we only charge a 'fortune' for them because the publishers charge us a fortune for them to start with! [fixed UBB code] [ 30 August 2001: Message edited by: tomb ]
