I'd probably stare and you say, "Jesus, I know that guy somehow....how do I know that guy."

Then you'd start talking with me and I'd act like I knew you, because I mean I know that I know you, but I have no idea who you are.

3 days later I'd realize who you are.

This happens to me, a lot. Seriously. I have the worst memory in the freaking world. I remember really weird details about people, but can't remember their names or how I know all these weird details about their life. Like I'm more apt to remember that you're a Portland commuter who is based in Cleveland, flew C-130's in the Marine's before you came to X company and you have a wife named Stacy than to remember a persons name.

See I remember names pretty well, and I NEVER forget faces; but it happens to me a lot where someone will walk up to me, know my name and stuff about me, but I can gauran-damn-tee I have never met this person in my life. Usually they know who I am from somebody else that I actually do know, but it creeps the hell out of me when I get the "Hey Ben......." and the long pause as they expect me to have a clue who they are.
 
Jtrain, the fact that you actually believe that I care if I impress you or not merely soldifies my position. You are full of yourself. As am I, as are most pilots. But when you pretend you are not, that your are above criticism, that your opinions are superior to anyone else's you're being full of yourself on an average pilot level translates into pure jerk. And you come off that way, to me, and to many others, nearly everytime you post. Me, just some of the time. Grow up kid, you are human just like the rest of us.

And for validity sake meritflyer, as if it's any of your business, I fly to Marco Island and back from CVG two to three times a month. It's about 7 hours round trip.

That drives me nuts. Used to happen to me a lot in college.

Yeah it happened a whole lot then

"Oh, you don't remember me, you dated my room mate two years ago"

"Yeah we were in the same Microbiology class (200+ students) last fall"

"You were the guy that did CPR on Dr. Jesperson"
 
I hope everyone enjoyed their pissing match this evening. If you have something to add to the topic which was originally posted, feel free to start a thread addressing that. If you have issues with another poster, try the PM function it works quite well.
 
to add to that....if you have issues with another poster and can't or don't want to take it to PMs, you might want to learn how to use the ignore function. :)
