My life is utterly fucking stupid and boring

I am sure I could fill this thing up with AWESOME WORK STORIES but really, who wants to read that

Bobby, you're asking me to ask a guy that I see every single day, work with, whose apartment I crash at sometimes to let a guy who calls him a prick on his own forums and every other name imaginable to let him begin posting on forums that he owns

[ovalescent]

I dunno, Jeff. I re-read the entry and I'm pretty sure he DIDN'T ask you that. He was just, as I said, griping about something over which he had no control.

But thanks for your input there, I'm sure that was entirely necessary.

necessary

It was necessary because Bob is my friend and it if he's unhappy and I'm partly responsible for his unhappiness then I need to explain what's going on (and he has complained about where I stand in the situation; I read the logs sometimes).

Your sarcastic response tells me that you don't care about this, and if the time I take to try to make my friend feel better isn't appreciated then there's nothing more I can do.

Sorry, Jeff. I guess when I interpreted your post as saying "Well, you had it coming because you're an asshole, so sack up," I missed the part where you were trying to make him feel better.

All I see is you dredging up old grievances in what's probably an attempt to make YOURSELF feel better about the situation. If you feel guilty, then deal with it. Don't try to rationalize it by demonizing Bob.

I appreciate ANY time people take to make him feel better, but as I see it, all you've done is post inflammatory, unwarranted comments that are just going to make him even more upset.

If that's you trying to make a friend feel better, I'd hate to see you trying to make a friend feel like an asshole.

Christ I was basically just reiterating what O said here http://www.livejournal.com/users/internetemperor/22551.html?thread=89367#t89367 TO Bob.

And yeah I am upset about this because everytime I say anything about this and try to mediate I just get snide disdain from people who say they support me but call me a "pushover" behind my back.

And yeah I do feel bad about it, bad that my friend can't do what he enjoyed doing because of something I'm caught in the middle of.

Forget about it, I'm sorry I said anything. Sorry about all of this.

PS I am sorry you got ganked, O, that must have been awful. Now I must return to T-shirt whoredom which, as it turns out, is a hundred-hour a week job.
