Dammit. I got one too and assumed it was like Facebook and just accepted it without thinking. Now I'm singing show tunes and speeding up instead of slowing down whenever I see a cute police officer on the highway.

haha nice.

The friend request feature is JI's equivalent of a bathhouse invitation.

The thing is, I cant make this "1" go away unless I accept or deny.

Iffin I deny...I run the risk of insulting an well meaning poster.

Iffin I accept, I run the risk of a choke-hold corn-holing from a long bannded poster waiting for revenge.


This is troubling.

Already too late hombre. Said poster probably read this thread by now;l feeling extremely insulted about your dilemma. Only option now is accepting the cornholing.

I accepted it because I thought he thought I was special. Seeing as how he sent one to everyone has taken me aback.

Thus I have severed all friendship ties with ganggreen.

I must say, today hurts.

Freaking Gangrene. Got one too.

A few years ago I said I'd never accept a "Friend" request.

So immediately Paulie, Raoul and Crash "Friended" me, just to call my bluff.

Have not accepted, even though Paulie has, apparently, been band for life, Raoul is still french and Crash was made a mod.

Still not accepting.
