Nice. "I don't care" and "Have a blessed day" all in the same paragraph!

I think this message board is a great way of communicating with other slugs, but just like Nikki if other people bother you that much RIDE BY YOURSELF!!! I have a brother-in-law who feels that way, so he wouldn't dream of picking up slugs, he'd rather spend 2 hours on 95 every morning trying to get to DC. I bet on 9/11/01 there were hardly any complaining, everyone was just wanting to get home the best way they could, regardless of language, perfume, messy car etc. Why is it that people can't just learn to appreciate other people and life and accept the fact that everybody is DIFFERENT. There have been plenty of times when I was either too cold, the car was trashed, it was smelly etc. I was just thankful to God that I made it safely to my destination. Tomorrow is not promised to any of us, there are more important things to do than complain.

I know some of you will respond with alot of negative remarks, but guess what I don't care and this too will pass!! I also say, HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

I agree! Also, it sure beats having official rules. I've learned alot from hearing all the various points of views. PJ is right - sometimes we are unaware that our behavior has a negative impact on others and this message board has served to bring such issues to the forefront. There may be those who choose to ignore it, but it still has an overall postive impact on the slugging system. To follow Nikki's advice in the context it is presented is to maintain a stagnant way of thinking and that type of acceptance will never encourage growth and betterment of anything!

Difficult topic. Solution: Make it clear, using visual signs hanging on your windows, what are your requirements for slugs to ride with you. Peace!

...And plenty, like me, who would take offense to her silly, preachy, small-minded sermon.

Nikki, Well said. Just to let you know, there are plenty of slugs who feel the same way you do.

QUOTE FROM NIKKI
I have been reading this board and it really bothers me that people have so much time on their hands to sit and complain about very minute things. You dont want people to talk on the phone, you dont want people to sleep, you dont want people to wear perfume/aftershave, you dont want people speak their native tongue. My goodness!! Ride by yourself. I cant believe this. People are that picky or maybe I am too easy going. I just like getting home in 30-40 minutes as oppose to 1.5 hours. Maybe its just me. Come on guys take it easy. Enjoy the day that God has given you. Stop worrying about things that are not important. Have a blessed day!!!

I'll second what Tkest says. This "everything is rosey" attitude is not reality. May be fine for you but don't tell the rest of us we should be thinking like you and that it is not right to complain. The issues brought up on this board are valid - at least to some of us. I for one want to know what irritates others. If you don't care to know, don't read this board. Take your self-rightous, pious view some where else.

If you are going to complain about people complaining, may be you should take your own advice and don't read this board. Complaining serves as an outlet for folks. Let it be and find another board to participate in if you feel the need to preach.
