RE: UN(dis)TALENTED: 10 Random things about me
howdy there fitinfun! you are one really strange lady you know that? lol.
I'm surprised by a few of these, like being an electronic idiot but a expert with complex numbers, I thought those two traits would go together.
You can't be insulted? I don't know a female that can't be insulted and I don't know a female who doesn't care what she looks like either!
You don't lock your doors? come on, that one drives me crazy! you gotta be careful out there!
The sleep one of course makes everyone jealous. lol.
The only thing on here that I don't find bizarre and I know I can be honest because you can't be insulted, is that I too like to wash dishes by hand.
This is a great post though because your answers are so unique!
lol - I am unique I think!
The door not-locking thing makes most people crazy, but I just don't do it. The bad guys are getting in no matter what, and there are not very many of them anyway. One time a random drunk guy walked into where I was living and asked if I had a light for his cigarette, used the burner on my stove, and then left. He did not even notice or care who I was or where he was lol.
The technical things have nothing to do with numbers.
I was a fat kid who constantly moved, and a fat swimmer, and
the Fat Lady in Accounting. When you are standing between people and money they think they should have, and you are fat - the insults fly. "Whale on the Beach" used to be one of my names. I learned long ago not to be insulted because those people do not matter to me and I will not see them again anyway. It's my super power.
I get insulted at least 10 times a week online due to what I post about natural weight loss. I don't even read the insult part and just find the point they are trying to make and respond to that.
I know I look bad and I do not care. At least in SE Asia they think my clothes are eccentric instead of insane :) I go for comfort over everything.
I hope you will post to this challenge very soon! I'm glad to know you like to wash dishes too, but you cannot use that one now.
haha! oh man fitinfun you are something else! I mean I love it, except the not locking the doors thing. I don't think you look bad either! not at all.
But why in the world would anyone on steemit insult you? That is shocking to me!
ok so you are unique! I figured since you can't be insulted that I could call
you strange just to be different than everyone else and I like strange but I like unique too!
I think you fit right in here on steemit.
It's kind of rare to be insulted on steemit but it definitely happens. I go on posts where people talk about how great it is here and talk about the minnow kill rate for example.
And anytime talking about natural health is a chance for someone to come tell me I am an idiot for believing in results instead of peer reviewed studies.
More often it's on FB or twitter.
Thanks for you compliment! Maybe I photograph well :)
howdy again fitinfun..the "minnow kill rate?" what are they talking about there, what does that mean and why would anyone want minnows killed off?
If you look at daily reports by @arcange like I do, you will see that 1M steemers are called Dead Fish - this means they have not posted in 30 days. Then you see 100k struggling redfish and less than 10k above that. So there are only 10k in "people who matter"here after 2+ years.
Some people here think this is just fine and that it is the problem of the dead fish, not the platform. They think all those million people are idiots and good riddance to them.
I disagree.
oh my gosh that is so short sighted! we need numbers, bit numbers. They totally stopped the growth with the new rc system and most big players aren't even aware of what has happened. they have no idea that small accounts are stuck and can't grow so most of them will eventually give up like so many already have.
Yup - you got that right. Some are trying to help now, but no one is saving the fresh minnow who makes 1 post and 5 comments and then has no rc - so they just quit.
In fb groups, I see the questions and people tell them to "invest." If that does not sound like a scam, I don't know what does. The content creator says, "Are you telling me to invest so I can write comments????"
And then they go back to fb and instagram for free.
Then you read Big Fish posts here about how great this fork thing is and will be.
exactly fitinfun! there's a huge disconnect. I've delegated to two accounts with sp so they can keep going but there are alot more people than that who need help, I'm starting a list.
Dave McCoy told me someone who will help if I have a list of struggling members which is good but they've already lost who knows how many.
