Ho Ho Ho - NEVER Drink and Drive
Posted by Lorraine (Gatineau, Canada) on 15 December 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual.
Ok folks, I have a pet peeve, apart from the title here.
AM3 is a wonderful community. I know people don't all have time to answer comments and I get that. I also know that sometimes only those that have a question will be answered. That makes sense. Or sometimes there's a language barrier, and a person will only answer those comments they understand. Nothing wrong with that. But when someone chooses to answer one here, one there, ignore the one in between or pick and choose who they want to respond to, well it's rude! Answer all or don't answer at all. It's rude. I'll visit you anyway, but it's rude ;)

Ian Bramham from Manchester, United Kingdom
inappropriate and/or cynical advertising!.....one of the richest untapped veins in photography today - well spotted Lorraine!

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom
Once again, a truly superb and fabulous image, dear lady, really spot-on especially for this season. And oH, oH, oH, a very true and timely reminder! This is something I certainly need to bear in mind too. Sleep deprivation definitely helps breed rudeness in me, I find, very regrettably! :)
15 Dec 2007 4:05pm
@Rebecca: Thanks so much Rebecca, you leave such lovely comments you can be rude ;)
@riesenriel: LOL, have a good one riesenriel ;)
@«miguel.peixeiro»: Hi Miguel, thanks :)

Love the irony, toots!! Great eye. I'm trying not to be one of those rude people... hopefully, I'm succeeding as it does annoy me as well.. ;-)

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom

@Richard_Irwin: Hi Richard, you're the second person who mentions a xmas beer, is there such a thing? Inquiring minds want to know ho ho ho ;)
Ras from Plano, United States
The picture has so much in it. The wink says it all with the background amplifying it.

@Ras: Thanks a lot Ras, gald you enjoyed it :)

Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan
I think if you stick to American beer you can reduce your chances of over-intoxication...
16 Dec 2007 12:37pm
@Daroru: LOL Good to know Daroru, thanks ;)
Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada
Santa looks like he has had a couple already.
I answer all comments but by email if they leave an address. Some people don't leave their address and occasionally leave a comment on the blog for them.
16 Dec 2007 6:27pm
@Michael Rawluk: He's just happy, that sounds like a smart way to do things Michael ;)

Jasp from Plymouth, United Kingdom
cor blimey ! ... was that me ? .. .sorry if so ... been very busy lately !
17 Dec 2007 7:30pm
@Jasp: Jasp, no, not you, you never answer ANY comments ;)
Damon Schreiber from Toronto, Canada
Cute juxtaposition. I'm probably kind of rude in the answering one or two comments kind of way, and you know there were many months when I answered each and every one, but it became like a full-time job, so there you are. I just like to pop in randomly. People should understand that it's nothing personal!
17 Dec 2007 10:26pm
@Damon Schreiber: I never noticed you doing that Damon...Must have something to do with your photos ;)
