Point of Interest



When it comes to online chatting there are two kinds of people:

People who type up the whole megilla out and then press enter 
and then there are people who send what they say as they say it.

Which category do you fall in and why do you choose that method?

    Depends who im chatting with. Usually i like typing the whole thing before hitting enter. When you send it as u say it, too often ur interrupted, making u backspace and redo the thought. I like being able to say my piece fully without being forced to revise.

    Ya but cym, you are a quick sayer only cuz u want them to remain interested as ur talking and not get bored watching the 'so-and-so is typing...' and wondering if they were accidentally signed out.

    It all depends on who I'm chatting with. But usually, if I have a lot to say, I'll type the whole thought and then hit enter. Unless I'm trying to say something so quickly that I'm kind of 'catching my breath' in between lines :-P Then I'll say it piece by piece...

    I don't deny that. I'd rather get off a few words, keep it going in the next batch, etc.

    I prefer to type quickly and spit out sentence after sentence than writing entire paragraphs. Unless, that is, I've informed the person I'm chatting with that I'm about to write a whole long "megillah." I find that they won't get as distracted if they're constantly reading as opposed to waiting for who knows how long for me to get the whole thought out. And, depending on the type of conversation you're having, many short sentences provides plenty of places for the conversation to go after the current topic you're having is done.

tonight

so basically it comes down to this, i dont have anyone to talk to..and i really need to get this out. A family I am close to has a son you could call " at risk." I hate labels but just so you know what Im talking about. The parents..have no clue what they are doing and are making text-book classic WRONG moves. They seem to be intent on completely pushing the kid off. Issuing ultimatums. Telling him they wouldn't care if he died. Kicking him out of the house. Yelling. Screaming. The works. The sisters reached out to me and i told them how important it is to love him, and be warm to him. To let him know that he is wanted and that they are there for him unconditionally. I mentioned in passing something you learn in Psyche 101- you can never force anyone to change..people will change when they want to. You can change yourself but that is about it. Anywhose..the crazed dad called me yelling at me that i am in no position to tell his kids anything...especially such sill
