Near-DIR diving: Are there DIR things you would probably never do?

[ScubaAndDreams]

I wonder if Jeff...cares? Do you? I like mint-chocolate ice cream by the way.

Holy stroke dung.

You're gonna die.

Ooh me too. You can join my club.

damn...but some DIR guy on a boat told me it's the approved ice cream...

Did you miss the part where I said that I don't care? or the other part where I said I was amused.


and again. Who cares? If someone writes off a system because someone was "mean" to them is a very shortsighted person. They probably wouldn't like DIR anyways.

Dude, I didn't miss it. You seem to take snippets of what I say it put it into your own context rather than the intended. You care enough to continue this and be rude about it as well.

The guy on the boat showed me this patch by the way...so chocolate chip mint ice cream it is...

ALOHA FRIDAY TO EVERYONE BY THE WAY!

It amuses me (until I have to go out anyways.)

Here's a good thread to read

Yeah, it is a good thread. And it's a good point as well. I want to take fundies because I will be going tech. I've reiterated that many times. If people feel that it's something that other divers should find out on their own, then let them. Don't make obstacles!

Well, on that note. I'm going to be leaving my office now and so I'm done with this conversation as well! It was good way to kill productivity and time for an hour or so on a friday afternoon!!

Hope our next conversation is less.. adverse... let's say.

Also, I didn't say all DIR folks, I even said it could be majority or minority (either way). And some DIR folks, or a few or whatever DO go around telling people they are going to get hurt or die. That's not a myth or rumor, it happens.

Now, if we took a poll or something of divers that have had bad experiences with DIR people being arrogant and getting rubbed the wrong way, there will be people that respond as yes.

I've seen "DIR folks" tell "non-DIR folks" that they'll die if they don't use xxx, and I've seen "non-DIR folks" tell "DIR" folks that they'll die if they do.

If a donkeyhole supporting something is enough to turn you off of that thing (and yes, I did read that you may someday take GUE-F), then you'll soon be turned off of everything because there are donkyholes everywhere.

Bottom line is: don't categorize people as DIR or non-DIR. There is no point in doing so, and in some cases it is even counter-productive.

unsolicited hate PM.

lol. Is there any other kind?
