I'm starting one.
I am looking to recruit members, but not just anyone gets in...only the truly misunderstood.

If you answer yes to more than 2 of these questions, you may be a Misunderstood Orger.
1) Are your playful jokes often mistaken for cruel jibes ?
2) Do people often assume you are the opposite gender ?
3) Do you post things that you find hilarious, yet they drop to page 2 quicker than Abierman's zipper at an Org invasion ? (this comment was made to illustrate #1)

Please tell me how you are misunderstood and I will consider your application for membership.

There is, of course, a $50 non-refundable registration fee.

Meetings will be held once a week, in the hospital cafeteria.

I often say things without thinking...

'Piss off'

There, I did it again

*illustrates point one perfectly... maybe

During the last few weeks some people have sent me orgnotes or made comments saying "oh my god, you're older than 16! " or "you're not innocent"

I find it kind of funny and am very willing to correct these prejudices, but still I think these are just as well big misunderstandings. Luckily they don't hurt anyone.

But I guess Fleshofmyflesh won't take me in as a member once again...

Maybe if people misunderstand you, it's cos you aren't communicating clearly enough?


Or if a joke is taken the wrong way, maybe it wasn't funny..?





Jus' a thought...

What, some people think you're a woman?

MarieLouise said:

psssst..MarieLouise....it's really not that hard to get in, as long as you have the fifty bucks.

Fleshofmyflesh said:

If we change 'bu' into 'di' I could have a chance.

Ok, bad joke, I'm trying to hard to prove my point, sorry....

rocknrolldave said:

Thanks Dave, but that was a really shitty application.
We must decline to accept you.
And again, the $50 is non-refundable.

Hi!

Freespirit said:

You, My Dear, are not misunderstood.
You are a sweet soul, and that is exactly how you come across.

(I will still allow you to come to the meetings, though, as long as you bring the coffee.)

Fleshofmyflesh said:

I know this (are you a dork too)... I was just saying Hi... which reminds me... I have not had a cup of coffee yet. I will make plenty.

Does the $50 bucks cover all screennames?

I will prolly misunderstand everyone today..

REDFEATHERS said:

I know, you even snapped at me, and you LOVE ME !

madartista said:

Sorry, it's PER screen name.
Thanks for reminding me.

DAMMIT. I knew I should have registered before I asked.

I don't get along with 99% of the men in the org, and 1/2 of the women.
Mostly misunderstanding. But also because I'm weird.

I definitely belong here because, as I've been told, I suck.

Most people misunderstand me because they don't know enough about me. I don't bare my soul as easily as others may, so it takes longer to get to know me. It's just a preference of mine, as I've been screwed over by less honorable people in my life. My standards, admittedly, are unrealistically high. This comes across as arrogance. There are also times when I say what's on the top of my head without thinking of how it may or may not affect someone else.

I've got a smart mouth, and I can be a total bitch. Apparently, these are flaws But I can also be nice to an extreme degree, which confuses most folks who deal with me on a daily basis. I blow hot and cold, but its because of an emotional sensitivity rather than a calculated desire to hurt.

I think you're wonderful

I think that's true of a lot of Orgers. It reminds me of my favorite Joni Mitchell song, Come in from the Cold. here's a snippet:

I know we never will be perfect
Never entirely clear
(when the moon shines)
We get hurt and we just panic
And we strike out
Out of fear
(you were only being kind)
I fear the sentence of this solitude
200 years on hold
(for my loving crime)
Oh and all we ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold

I seldom have had stuff stay on Page 1 very long. I always think that the stuff that I intend to be funny drops like a lead balloon and the stuff I intend as poignant comes off as pathetic and depressing. I go back and read my own posts and go "Damn, dude, they must think you spend all your time sipping hemlock or something." I am actually very happy about most of my life. I just always feel like a forgotten member around here but then again I don't post that much (even though I am up to almost 800 posts) and I don't really know any of you personally. I guess I expect my words to speak for themselves and when these posts come up about which Orger is this or which Orger is that, I think my name will pop up but it never does. Oh well, all I can do is keep trying and hope that one day you will find me funny or insightful or...well, hell, just tolerable.

I answered yes to one and three, but I don't have fifty bucks.

Oh come on, this thread has Nero written all over it.

retina said:

Number two is certainly, any way.

And I can't help it if no one besides me wants to give JoeyMfinCoco love.

Sometimes im sarcastic and serious at the same time but that is open to interpratation like all great art


I can be an insulting fucker without meaning it

Will the $50 go towards the therapy fund?
