Things that Irritate the 'Narti, #42:

Disappearing from the Internet with literally no explanation. Or a really crappy explanation that can only be called an excuse.

You see, when you disappear from the Internet? People are left behind. Spending too much time on the computer? Okay, I can respect that, go out and get a life if you feel that's what you need.

But don't you DARE bloody forget that there are FRIENDS, real PEOPLE with whom you have formed a bond over the last year, two years, DECADE even, who you are just ditching and leaving in the black nothing. If we live over the other side of the world, and our only connection to you is through LiveJournal, email, AIM/MSN or whatever, then what the hell are we supposed to think when you suddenly cut off all connection? Is the computer broken? Are you in a coma/dead? Do you hate me? Were the last 10 years of friendship really that contrived?

Leaving without a word, except maybe in three or four months' time to say, "Oh yeah, I was spending too much time on the computer," is the one of the rudest things you can possibly do. Why? What do I hear from that statement? "Oh yeah, I was spending too much time talking to you."

Well, thanks a bloody lot.

If you're pissing off of the Internet, at least have the guts to say why. Then at least I can save my worrying for someone worthwhile.
