There was a 60's movie called "Little Shop of Horrors" with a plant named Audry (I think), who said "feed me" & he was fed ppl. Is that it?

You never cease to amaze me, lady!!! You just have to get your two cents in on everything don't you!!! Why don't you learn to mind your own business and let others work out differences between themselves without you sticking your nose into their business!?!?!?!

Why don't we all just let this thing die and go on sharing our experiences with what we are all here for, bananas, and other plants that we all share a common interest in. If I want to talk about other topics with folks, I use a site like Facebook or MySpace. This site is for sharing information on growing and caring for bananas and other plants.
As far as pictures go, I have been amazed at what some people upload in our, bananas.org's, picture gallery! Why don't you use a photosharing site like Photobucket to store pics and save this site's gallery for its intended purpose. Photobucket is free and is easy to use that I can even use it!! You can always link a pic off photobucket to a thread and not have it downloaded here. Sure would have kept this crap from ever happening in the first place!!!
I am trying to be nice here and voice my opinion that I have held back for quite some time, but can't keep quiet any longer!!!
People get a grip and shut up and get on with other topics for which Jarred has so graciously provided this site for!!!!
Jarred has tried to be impartial and provided some explanation of what he expects and many of you are more or less "snubbing your nose" at him and keeping this thread going!!!
Sure do miss the way it used to be here when there were people who respected each other and agreed to disagree! Many VERY knowledgable people have left this site because of how some of you are acting right now and I honestly cannot blame them, but I am still hopeful that there are enough of us "old timers" here that can help get everyone on the same page.

All I want is for people to respect one another and treat each other kindly!!!

Okay, now that is off my chest, have a good day and lets talk BANANAS!!!
Wow! You obviously think you can read minds and either don't care or did not read my post about offending people by asserting motives in their post. It offends me when you assert that I am a mean person that is snubbing my nose at Jarred--nothing could be further from the truth.

I believe that I have been respectful (as well as have most of the people posting here). I have continued to read and post on this thread because I find it enlightening and at times humorous (like the part about snipe hunting (the imaginary kind) and the recipe for snipe--"truss the legs of the snipe" lol). I like chatting with most of the people on this thread. There are other threads in the Tiki Hut I have not read or posted to--I am not interested in them--so I do not read them.

Wow Randy, I was trying to lighten you up a bit. I never said a bad word/thing to you. Everyone here has been posting their opinions, including you. If it was just between you 2 maybe it should not've been posted for all to see. Sorry if what I said offended you - I didn't mean to.
I don't know why, but you seem very angry.

Dear lady, I suggest you reread the thread where I posted my FIRST OPINION and then Momese dissected it. I, then responded and asked him to pm me if he would like to discuss it in private, which he did and we have discussed it and all is good. This leads me back to you having to throw your "2 cents" in where it was not needed or asked for. I am NOT angry, just been sitting by watching and felt I had a right to voice my opinion, which I did.

sbl, I never mentioned you or even thought of you when I wrote it, but if the shoe fits.... Maybe you feel I was directing this toward you, which I wasn't, for a reason!!!

Now, I am completely done with this thread and will not respond to anymore comment on here. If someone wishes to discuss this with me in private, I am more than willing to do so in private via pm.....

You did not specify who you were addressing, so in that case your post appears to be addressing everyone that has posted on this thread.

Everybody should refrain from making negative comments about others, but I believe that everyone has a right to express their opinions about subjects or their feelings and does not need to be asked to comment.

The point that I have made several times is that it can be offensive to people (all people) to have their motives misrepresented--that is probably more offensive to most people than the subject that started this thread. Nobody but the person making the post knows what their motivation is.

"with things like murder, suicide, child abuse, spousal abuse, domestic violence, accidental drownings, gang violence, etc., "
None of this was topic here, ..so go to your friends and talk of this.

Clare! Touchy Touchy.
I never addressed/judged you or your views. Pot meet kettle.

Hunting/Fishing are accepted hobbies. Murder, suicide, child abuse, spousal abuse, domestic violence, accidental drownings, gang violence, etc., are not and no pictures were posted of such. Please do not assume that I equated the two.
