Perndog Sorry, it just gets hard to notice jokes when it's way out of character for the person to even try to be funny.

I should really donate some money so I can get that "I get jokes" title.

There is a big difference between reality and a joke post.

No shit, sherlock. I'm a libertarian. I HATE OVER HALF THE LAWS WE HAVE. I'd break a ton of laws in a split-second if I knew I wasn't going to be caught.

Helm I didn't read this thread very carefully but if I understood it correctly, I don't get what's any of your friend B's buisness what friend A has on his computer. It's that tramp that whore of a girlfriend A used to have but now B has that's the one that likes it when people take nude photos of her. I say friend A should keep the fucking pictures and jerk off to them every day, and you know what, he should call after every time and inform her of that. Nobody should be able to take that away from him. It's his right as an ex-boyfriend with a camera

FS I never expect any of my friends/family/loved ones to pick between me and people I hate, and when they expect it of me I don't accept it.

Of course, the only logical course of action would have been to break into the computer and paste headshots of Friend A over the pictures.

Anonymous Funny you say that, Friend Q.
Dec 13th, 2003 05:43 AM
Dole I am now only going to call my friends Friend A, B, C etc.

I misread the whole dating situation. I thought Chojin meant they were from when the fiance and Friend B started dating.

Chojin had me read this thread when I woke up.

Anonymous He removed the pictures when asked. He was a little upset at me going through his stuff, but only because I did it while he wasn't around.

Yay.
Dec 12th, 2003 04:34 PM
kellychaos I don't know if it would necessarily solve the problem but what might, for the sake of comedy, be a fun thing to do is to have Friend B's fiance approach Friend A and ask why he still has nake pictures of her on his computer just to watch him stammer and stutter. It may even happen, under this type of coercion, that Friend A might decide to remove them on his own. This is assuming, of course, that Friend A and Friend B's fiance are on speaking terms.

Anonymous How would it grab you if I were to violate your property rights? In stock.

You have to admit that would flatter you a little bit.
Dec 12th, 2003 04:10 PM
The One and Only... I would not delete the pictures, because that would be a violation of property rights.
Dec 12th, 2003 02:35 PM
Protoclown YEAH, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA

POST NAKED PICTURES OF A GIRL BECAUSE THOSE ARE SO HARD TO FIND ON THE INETERNET
Dec 12th, 2003 01:42 PM
AChimp And had good wank material, too. :D

You should post some of these pictures, Chojin, just to get them back for getting you involved.
Dec 12th, 2003 12:50 PM
Royal Tenenbaum You should have made a copy of the pictures for yourself, deleted Friend As copy, and then made your two friends bid over the control of them. You could have made some dollars.
Dec 12th, 2003 12:33 PM
Protoclown Precisely. If you don't want something to come back and haunt you someday or don't want to end up regretting something you've done, then DON'T DO whatever it is you were debating doing.

Now, it would certainly be the gentlemanly thing for Friend A to delete the pictures, but I'm assuming that he obtained them in a fully kosher manner. In which case, they're his to hang onto if he pleases, even though Friend B's fiance may regret it and not be altogether happy about it.

Protoclown That's a damn tricky situation, but I try to respect other people's privacy, so I don't go through other people's things, particularly their computer where they may have personal information they don't intend for others to see. And that goes double for my roommates since I have to live with them and see them every day. I'm not going to stick my nose in their shit and I appreciate it that they stay out of mine.

I understand completely why Friend B doesn't want Friend A to have the pictures, but obviously the fiance in question here agreed to have her picture taken while she was going out with Friend A. If she regrets it now, that's her problem, not yours.

Talking to Friend A about it is probably as far as I've have gone. I would have made the effort but I would have explained to Friend B that going into someone else's personal shit is just something I do not do.

You went a little further than I would have, but I still don't think you're too far out of bounds. But you can damn sure expect Friend A to be annoyed...though at the same time it's good that you're being honest to Friend A about what you did.

Of course, the dishonest thing would be to delete them, see how long it takes him to nitice, and then deny the whole thing.
Dec 12th, 2003 10:54 AM
Anonymous Okay. Cool. What I did was refuse to delete them, but compromised and gave Friend B copies of the pictures. I intended from the beginning to talk to Friend A today about him deleting the pictures when he gets home, and that is still what I'm going to do.

I guess I'm looking for a 'you did the right thing' pat-on-the-back bullshit because I know he's going to be hurt by me giving Friend B anything on his machine, even if it is nude pictures of his own fiancé. I mean, the guy takes it personally when I ask him to not tailgate people when I'm in the car, so this is bound to be an ordeal this afternoon.
