I saw this thread begin on J+, but by the time I read it it was already in lock down with very few comments (mostly confused ones). Didn't really understand it. Just thought who/what is this about?
Now that all references to Jodo have been changed to Jodo (
), I get what this is about and it's bloody hilarious!
Stu mate, So someone unfriended you on Facebook... Don't worry man. I've done this to loads of people... even by accident sometimes
(hey maybe there's the answer to all of this).
I heard rumours that an ex-girlfriend had let herself go after I dumped her and put on loads of weight. I get onto to Facebook to discover she's blocked me outright and I can't even see her in the friends list of our mutual friends
. You can only laugh about it. To take this sh*t personally will only serve to run you down Stu. You mustn't let it. Life's too short.
If Jodo has un-friended you because he thought there was some genuine beef between the two of you over a f**king video game score then get a life and take the higher ground. Ignore it and let him show himself up for being a tit. You will come out the moral victor (even if you can't beat his score
). Throwing a strop on two open forums about the matter will get you nowhere mate. Especially as loads of people here are miserable old farts who don't like Facebook
. They're only going to make fun of it all.
However, before you went telling the world about this, did you speak to Jodo? You know, message him and just say "mate, I see you unfriended me on Facebook? I hope you don't think there's an issue between us over that interview. If I've upset or offended you, please tell me as that's never what I set out to do..." and so on. Life's problems are easily solved through open dialogue between those directly concerned.
Why do you think no one ever tells anyone anything up front when something's going down on Ramsey Street or Albert Square? Because if they did, there'd be no drama to sucker the audiences in.
So with that in mind, Jodo, get you're sexy ass in here and respond, and the rest of us can post Michael Jackson Eating Pop Corn gifs
.
Long may the UK's Arcade Collecting scene be full of hilarious disputes and fall outs over rotten wood, blown capacitors, corrupted ROM, dry solder joints, leaf switches, JAMMA, Pre-JAMMA, Medium Res CRTs, high score willy waving and GORF.
Wouldn't change it for the world...
