Put it down to the fact that I hate this weather, or th fact that I've had a stonking headache all weekend, but I just want to have a mini-whinge and get this out of my system.
OK, back to the sofa for me with a cold flannel, some water, and a bunch of Numb3rs episodes ~![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

It only takes a couple of seconds to type the words "thank you", right? Something that's bugged me for a while is when people don't bother to respond to feedback they've been sent or left ~ this could be for a music video, icons, help with links, whatever. If someone takes the time to leave/send feedback on something, or help out in some way, it's common courtesy to say thank you or acknowledge the feedback/help. Now, I know some people get large amounts of feedback, but like I say, just typing two words (ie: thank you) isn't exactly going to take very long, is it?
For a while it's bugged me in relation to feedback I've left people that's not even been acknowledged and help that I've given/offered, but just lately I've spent a helluva long time helping many different people by uploading all kinds of stuff, across various fandoms, sharing links, etc, and whilst most of the recipients have been fantastic in thier response, a small few don't even bother with an acknowledgment .... or worse still, skip the "thanks" part and go straight to the "now I want" part (and yes, there is someone who has done this more than once to me recently). And it really pisses me off. As most of you know, I really like helping people out and will go out of my way a lot of the time to do what I can, and I will continue to do this. But those people who've pushed me to actually voice this ~ no more. I won't even bother naming them, they are only a very few, but next time they email me for help, or I see them requesting help, I will just skip past it. Meh. See now that makes me feel mean. Meh.
Just for clarification ~ this rant in no way applies to ANYONE on my flist .... in fact some of you absolutely amaze me with your generosity :) I'm kinda cautious with 'friending' new people, but I think that I have an amazing bunch of people on my friends list xxx

Re: Mini whinge & other topics.....
Glad to hear the HA is better! Maybe you'll rest well tonight and catch up...assuming they don't completely hack you off at work today.
As for the big trip, expect the hand delivery of the little, colored confections during the week of November 26th.
Gotta go squirt some caulk and slap some paint so I can afford the big bags...
Later, my friend!
