The "Not So Pro" discussion thread...of course Pros are welcome!

[slowp]

Wow.

 

[treeslayer2003]

This one... the last couple pages... way too funny‼
Unwelcome?? Seriously??
Ruffled feathers??
Just too much‼
(yeah, I read 'em all from time-to-time)

no spidy, i don't have ruffled feathers nor do i get butt hurt if thats what your thinking. and yes i read almost every where as well. i really could give a chit less if i'm welcome or not.......however i do think twice as to whether or not to reply to a question on the wood forum as it seems y'all do have a problem with a logger giving advice there. by the way, i have heated with wood most of my life.........i work in the woods, wood is every where.

I just annoy them. Can't help it.

I'm thinking about starting up the Barbie Saw tomorrow. I haven't touched a saw for a few months. Tomorrow is supposed to be not as wet.

First I find out axe men is fake, now this!

My dear slowpy wopy. You were my first, internet pee fight, ahhhh you always remember your first. Your off topic random rants and don't move here/come hither speak as you commented on various threads with me reeled in my heart like a turn to the landing. I thought we shared a moment there, felt something special. Two hearts beating as one, pounding on our keyboards, shaking our fists at our monitors in the heat of the moment. But alas it seems this was just a game to you. My heart has been trampled like a slash pile under a skidder tire, my ego deflated worse than my blow up doll after the "woodstove incident" but i digress, true love is fleeting
I fear I might never complete my novel, fifty shades of slowp.
Till we troll again my sweet mountain vixen

LOL. That right there is funny. Thanks for posting.

no spidy, i don't have ruffled feathers...

I was not suggesting you did.
It's the whole "us" and "them" thing I was laughin' at... and y'all are tossing the word "respect" around like it's something ya' can rub off on someone else.

I can appreciate the job a person does, how hard the work is, how well they do it.
But it ain't actions that earn my "respect"... it's the character of a person that does.
I can venomously disagree with a person and still "respect" them... it ain't what a person says, it's how they say it.
And since the topic here at the moment seems to be slowp , and respect due her...

I've never questioned the abilities of slowp ... but I have had disagreements with her.
She always reverts to the same tactic of personal attacks, denigrating comments and general belittling... acts of a person who believes themselves to be above you, acts of low character.
Then I come here and see these sorts of comments (I might add, not just from her... but that's where the thread is)...

Just been glamping on the dry side of the state and pissing off the firewooders on their forum, which is not hard to do.
I just annoy them. Can't help it.
Oh no! They've escaped and entered here.
Actually, what has them ticked off is my Don't Move Here campaign. For some reason, many find that extremely insulting.

...which only reinforces my opinion of her character.
I don't... I can't "respect" low character... it don't matter what else there is about them.
And she sure-in-hell don't have the power she gives herself credit for.

I don't post here because I ain't a pro... I don't pretend to be... for that reason I don't really have anything much to add.
But I do come here on a occasion to read, maybe pick up a tid-bit of info I can use.
But the truth is... I'm just a firewood hack with a little firewood saw, most of what I read here doesn't apply much to my activities.
I can appreciate the danger and difficulty in the job y'all do, out in nature's elements daily... but appreciation ain't "respect".
"Respect" is earned from character, which is a whole lot more than just blood and sweat.

^ Talks a lot. Doesn't say much.

OK... I'll make my point using a lot fewer words.
I can't help but notice her "don't move here" campaign, that she takes so much pride in, does not extend to this forum.
That says more than I could using 1000 words.
It-is-what-it-is Gologit... it-is-what-it-is.

[northmanlogging]

Uh.... it extends here... it started here

DON'T MOVE HERE...

^ Talks a lot. Doesn't say much.

That's half of as.

 

[BeatCJ]

Half? You are generous, sir.

 

[slowp]

Uh.... it extends here... it started here

DON'T MOVE HERE...

I'm glad my coffee is too hot to have had it in my mouth whilst first reading this.

Now, is it snooty to not use ' instead of ing? It's just easier to use ing instead of ' for moi. Oops, moi might be too hoity toity too. Ooops hoity toity might be French also and therefore snooty and therefore sounds too educated...oops used...which is a math thing.

Back onto a happy subject, Northman: are you going to Farley's again this year? If so, any chance of the super secret lawnmower project happening? Sounds like you are too busy razing trees that have been raised. I do not have the skills to do it. Or the equipment.

 

[northmanlogging]

Probably going to pass on Farleys this year, was fun but a long drive, and I kind of miss going to the Demming Log Show...

 

[northmanlogging]

As for the super secret, skidder project, found a chassis that needs minor work to make werk... but no cash, and no time.

 

[Whitespider]

Uh.... it extends here... it started here
DON'T MOVE HERE...

And with that... I rest my case...

We will miss you and The War Dept.

 

[treeslayer2003]

lmao! because don't move here is a joke nobody seems to get. i get it........its to late for here.......move away maybe?

 

[slowp]

I think it is too late for here too. I decided to get a fishing license last year. I knew things had changed when the book of regulations was an inch thick. We've got traffic jams that back up miles on an interstate on some Sunday afternoons. Traffic can start slowing down on the east side of the Cascades--miles from Seattle as the city people return. We used to go across on that route with no problems. On I-5, around Olympia, the lanes would be deserted and we would goad my mom to change lanes so the car would go over the little lane bumps. Now that is only a memory and another lane has been added or is in the process of being added and there is still congestion. We now have to make reservations months ahead of time to go stay in a state park during the summer months.

I helped Brian and Janie move. In the surrounding woods are signs about a change of land use--more suburbs will be replacing forest.

It's just something that is hard to understand unless you've grown up here and seen it.

Oh, and the immigrants don't understand the time honored tradition of "It Rains All The Time." They send sunny pictures of mountains to their friends and they move here too.

Sadness.

 

[treeslayer2003]

they made some laws here about development..........only seems to effect small land owners who want to sell a lot or two, the big mega developments keep right on going up. i can't understand why they want to move here.......then again i never stayed in a city any longer than it took to drive around it.

Yeah... regulations suck.
I person should be able to fish without half'n to following any.
