ICQ
is more like I C U?
Last night about
11:30pm (CST), I noticed like every other night, my niece got on the internet
and went to a chat room to speak with people from all over the world about
religion and politics. I decided to join in out of curiosity. So I signed into
to this chat room call ICQ. After two minutes, I was blasted with all these
different private IMs which I found out they were from men all over the world.
I am not stupid by
compare but I just detest men and women that think this sexual exploit is
exciting! Not only is it not exciting it is boring by far! [Or so I thought.] I
wanted intellectual conversation – politics, religion, worldly culture. The
first opening statement I received was “asl?” [Age, sex, location] Well of
course being a “smart ass”, I explained that American Sign Language is a bit
hard to see on the internet without a cam. Big mistake saying cam in private
chat room. Everyone wanted to show me their “Polly that needed a cracker.” I
was not offended. But a few of these men I spoke with I had to ask if they
talked to their mother, daughter, wife or sister in that manner? How would they
like it if someone did? I received several apologies. I also spoke with a 15
year old boy. I asked him if his mother knew he was in an adult chat room and
that he should be careful as not to get hold of a predator of some sorts.
I even had a person
state that “the USA sucks ass!” I agreed that it does suck canal water out of
the best asses—look at corporate America. Las Vegas has a great system for
water conservation using waste water I had ever seen. I was censored by the ICQ
police who felt the word “FXCX” or “TXTs” is appropriate but not what I said.
(?) I think it is wonderful when we are censored in the US. It is okay for the
vulgar use of slang words but not okay to be a smart ass!
Sometimes they try
that censorship on FaceBook, and of course I pull the Constitution bit – yes I
am one of those liberal’s that believe in the ACLU—you know the bunch that
defends the constitution to its height for all citizens.
I had one young man
tell me he was a 23 year old male turkey and ask me if that bothered me? Why
should it? I was curious though as to why he called himself a turkey? That is
rather an old slang word from the past. It ended up I was the turkey because he
was from the Country Turkey. I spoke with men from Illinois, Nigeria, Moscow,
Turkey, someone from the Ivory Coast of West Africa-Ghana, and a man from
Washington, DC. The man from DC was lonely and a marketing specialist. Oh please open that door – lobbyist or
congressman. I was so hoping to get hold of one or the other. If it was someone
I could have identified – what a public copy of the post it would have been to
the press this morning!
All I have to say
about all of this is people have definitely become disassociated with reality.
