@pof Her crusade against the right was golden. She tried to get me but I could tell what she was doing, loved every minute of it.

I think even her crusade against the Left was staged. She was brilliant! I didn't catch on until after she switched to the Righties.

phalnx - just for future reference - cowboy wouldn’t get a notification for the tag you made below because there’s a comma immediately after it. There has to be a blank space both before and after the @username construction. (It can also be at the beginning of the poll question, comment, or a new paragraph.)

I’m not sure that a tag in the answer field works either. I was going to test that but then I decided I didn’t want to set up a poll just for that purpose. Even if I used a beta-testing account (so my followers wouldn’t all get notifications for it) and closed it almost immediately, there’d still be some users who would see it in the Tap list. I’m really curious about that, though. Maybe I’ll try it in the middle of the night sometime.

I think cowboy probably responded to the tag that Robert posted. (I guess I could ask him if he got one for the poll itself too, but it was a couple days ago & the notifications have probably scrolled off for him by now.)

And as long as I poked my nose in here, I agree with those who say cowboy isn’t a troll. I knew him on another app before I came here (almost 6 years ago) & I used to see him on Instagram as well, plus in a couple of music videos on YouTube that he linked to in polls.

As far as I can tell he’s a human being expressing his true feelings & beliefs. He used to use photos of his daughter as profile pics & I’ve seen similar photos of her on Instagram, in context with him & others in their lives, showing her growing up at an appropriate rate over time. Comments from him elsewhere fit well with his ideas here.

We may not agree about much of anything (except that I believe he is a good & loving dad; his daughter’s face demonstrates that quite well), & I have trouble understanding why he often doesn’t seem to comprehend things that people (like, um, me) take the time & trouble to explain to him, but I honestly believe that his statements are purely his own real thoughts.

D'oh! I knew that, susan, but my typing finger didn't :p. I've been on the receiving end of @cowboy 's trolls...yeah, he's a troll, and a great one! That is said with admiration, not scorn...I appreciate someone who can put one over on me the way he did 😂. I also know we share more than just the bad choice of professions...I'm sure he loves his daughter as much as I love my kids.

Thank you Susan. I am very proud of my beautiful daughter. I wish people were less mean but after the awful things they, including pedophiles who said they got off to her picture and called her fat, I did what any father would do. Damn the consequences.

Leave children alone. Period.

06/03/18 6:55 pm

I still believe you completely misinterpreted what that user said about the picture of your daughter (your profile pic) but other than your comments about him then and since, your *response* - to remove the photo and not use pictures of her again - was smart, and a good instinct: protectiveness of your child. It’s very obvious how much you care about her.

I hope she’s doing well. I do miss seeing picture of her, but I understand.

No, I really don’t. I’m in the middle of organizing myself for a trip later this week, and I have a heck of a lot of things to do before I go. I may well find some time, but at the moment as far as SOH is concerned I’m trying to finish up things I’ve already started, answer polls that don’t take any “research,” and not get into anything new.

06/03/18 7:52 pm

I can pack pretty fast; I have a great list that I’ve developed that works well for almost any kind of trip - flying to another city to visit friends; staying with my daughter and son-in-law for 5 days; housesitting for a month. It’s a check list and I just run through it and check off everything that doesn’t pertain to the kind of trip I’m going on (those items disappear, but can be un-checked & brought back again), and work with the rest. It includes errands, things to buy, things like having mail held. Food to bring, for some trips like housesitting.

That’s not the time consuming part at all. I have to pot some plants I just bought, move my tomatoes from small to big pots, do a bunch of computer stuff, clean up a bunch of stuff, and a whole lot of other things.

Packing is the easy part.

North Carolina. To visit an old friend. Long story, but I was friends with her and her 1st husband in Michigan; lived with them for some time, then across the street from them. Knew both their children from birth; both are grown up now, will see one of them and *his* two children in NC, as well as the ex-husband.

Her 2nd husband died 1 year ago; she’s having some kind of event to commemorate his life, mostly for the benefit of her oldest granddaughter. Me, I’m mostly just going to see my friends. Haven’t seen them for 7 years.

06/03/18 8:01 pm

I wasn’t really a “government” scientist unless you count the years I was in graduate school and did research at NIOSH. No actual publications came out of that (although my name is on some other papers that I contributed to in other ways). I did most of my (published) research at a medical school, and a tiny bit at a small college.

I’m really not all that busy. I don’t have any real commitments, except I housesit for friends occasionally. I’d like to find some kind of volunteer work or maybe take a class or something.

Who is leaving what behind? Not sure who you’re referring to there.

*My* children? I have only one, my daughter. She’s 50, close to 51 now. She lives here in Colorado, about 10 miles outside of town, up in the foothills of the Rockies, with her husband, in a small house. (I live *in* town. That works out better for me since I don’t drive.

I moved here because they suggested it; urged me to consider it when I retired or was looking for another job. I lost my job when I was 64 and decided it was a good time to retire. (I’d be competing with newly trained PhDs if I tried to find a new job then.) So I moved here.

Are you still on Instagram?

My 51-year-old “child”?

In six and a half years you have never included me in a beta test or friendship with the makers of this app despite turning you on to it. What is the problem?

susanr Colorado
06/03/18 8:42 pm

The problem is that I don’t have anything to do with any of that - as I’ve tried to tell you, and yet you still talk about me being part of the “SOH Cabal,” whatever that is. Apparently *you* know, but I sure as hell don’t.

How would I “include you in a beta test”? Here’s how beta testing worked: In Dec 2012 or Jan 2013 Tony posted one of those not-really-a-poll informational things where he announced that SOH was looking for some beta testers for the app. If you were interested, please email.

I did that. (I’ve beta tested for software programs and some other apps before, & thought it sounded interesting.) Tony didn’t leave the thing up very long; I guess he got enough interested people pretty fast. I was accepted, along with half a dozen or maybe a dozen others. Tony talked about what we would be doing in a poll that only we could see (remember this was before user polls were a feature, but we could see them).

.

susanr Colorado
06/03/18 8:47 pm

Eventually we were all given access to a Google+ page at some point where the developer, and Tony sometimes, talked to us about the upcoming version (that would included user polls) and how the features would work. We were able to download a test version of that (the “beta” version) to *test* (thus, beta testers). We discussed on the G+ page what worked well, what didn’t work so well, and what was broken. The developer worked on fixing the broken things and making the so-so things better, and making the whole thing look nicer. Then he made a new beta “build” available and we tested that. We repeated that, over and over and over, until everyone (but especially the developer and Tony) was happy with it. Then that version was released in the App Store on 3/28/13. (And presumably others were testing an Android version too.)

This process went on for about 2-1/2 years, even after the app was sold, until the last versions when beta testers were used, in 11/2015.

Sure you don’t. I believe you sweetie. Good luck on your Government trip. Must be nice when everything is paid for. First class all the way.

Where do I sign up?

susanr Colorado
06/03/18 8:52 pm

At no time did I have *anything* to do with “including” *anyone* in a beta test. We weren’t even supposed to mention any of the features we were testing - unless it was obvious because we could do something that other users couldn’t, which happened sometimes, or unless we were told to mention them. *None* of us could just “include” anyone.

I have *never* had any special powers or privileges other than having access to the beta builds and having access to the G+ page (and the ear of the developer, Tony at first, and jaysin later, which has been helpful when SOH suffers a server issue) or bad troll attack like the one where some bozo was making fake accounts that looked like other users’ real accounts).

I couldn’t “include” anyone. That was all Tony.

“Government trip”? What utter delusion is this?

I’m going to visit old friends. I’m paying through the nose for it, since I waited so late. I almost didn’t go because of the expense, but decided to commit to it anyway, because... friends.

First class - what a joke. Economy all the way. On the return trip my seat is in the very last row, next to the bathrooms. It was about all that was left to choose from that wouldn’t cost me more money for an “upgrade.”

Posting a poll about a *news story* is not “stealing your ideas.” How many times do I have to explain that to you?

How many news stories of any kind have you seen as featured polls?

And why do you hold *me* responsible for any of this? I have utterly nothing to do with any decision SOH makes about *anything*.

And no, I don’t have to pack until Wednesday night; I’m not leaving until Thursday morning. But I do have to go eat some dinner.

(Sorry, guys. I will really try to leave now, and just ignore any more of this, since it’s degenerated into utter nonsense.)

RT is lonely because he is homeschooled so he spreads lies about people on SOH because resident bullshiter TomLaney1 and braindead housewife 4JC tell him it makes him smart.

He doesn't have any friends, so this is the best it gets for him.

If he were to die, I don't think anyone would notice. Would his family even care? I have doubts.

pof
06/02/18 9:00 pm

"You hate me because I'm a Jew!!!!!!" is a learned behavior he has obtained likely from braindead housewife and the bullshitter, who routinely tell everyone that if you don't fall to your knees everytime anyone says "Israel", you are the reincarnation of Hitler.

He uses this behavior to justify anyone who criticizes him. If you don't worship everything he says, you must hate him. Why do you hate him? It must be because he is a Jew!

I consider RT to be SOH's Christian Weston Chandler. A lolcow easy to laugh at, but enabled by retarded religious folk. When RT grows up, he'll learn how cold the world is. Will he survive? Doubtful.
