whos is this guy and what did he do?
Octavis= blkscorpion

He got a hold of Aaron's account and password and posted naughties.

BUT... This was in retaliation of Aaron stealing O's B, A, C, O, and N keys from his keyboard.

They are feuding. All is good.

See... I differ on this Jeff...

If someone calls me and im busy, I try to answer, cause you never know how important it is, or if its a quick questions.
I personally hate voice mails. You have to call to get them etc...

SMS Email etc FTW... the message is right there, and I can respond in a second.
But why? Cuz now I have to tell him again because I am sure he forgot. Not on that, I didn't get the chance to explain the full situation. If he had the voicemail, he could listen to it at his leisure when he can deal with it.

I would just text it to him but this particular person is not at all tech savy and has NO idea how to retrieve a text.

Okay... So... HUGE pet peeve of mine...

You call a person to ask them a question or to share information. They answer the phone only to tell you they can't talk right now and that they are really busy.

WTF?

If a) you can't talk and b) you are really busy, why did you answer the phone? I could have just left you a message. Because you answered the phone, we have now both wasted time.

doesn't happen anymore since it is the 21st century and all, but I hated it when I would get a call and it is misc. friend calling:

misc. friend "Hey"

me "Hey"


misc. friend "sooo what's up?"

me "ummm not much. ?"


misc. friend "really? me neither"

me "yeah well, nice talking to you - I gotta finish not doing anything"


I like you and all, but seriously...

My thing is the value people place on time. Especially when they think that their time is more valuable than mine. By shutting me down like that, he had valued his time above mine and will now expect me to repeat myself when I see him again or he calls me back.

Now, if I had just left a message, he could have listened to it and neither of us would have wasted a second; I would have said it once and he would have listened to me once.

But now, since his time is more valuable, all he did was shut me up, made me feel bad for interrupting (like I could have known I was), and wasted all that energy.

I guess I just don't understand.
