ive had a few as well, who swear that they didnt add me and had a go at me for adding them! i was like "What?!?!?!"
If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

Loads of people add me, specially from the forums I go to, always asking for help.
FAQ:
How can you tell when you are blocked?

And then, I had to go over it again and again, every day, till I blocked them all and removed my msn id from many sites.

All the time. When you're AIM screen name as mine is, you get plenty.

Pet peeve: People who add me to their buddy list, then forget who I am and feel compelled to IM me and ask "Who are you?" I don't know who they are, and they don't know who I am. They have no business adding me to their list! Arrrgh.

Oh damn. Just pulled out another clump of hair out of my scalp. Good thing for 'high foreheads.'

that doesn't happen to me very often...
side note: there is no way to tell if you've been blocked, right?

I couldn't agree more. That is by far THE MOST annoying thing ever. Well, what's even worse is if you get these types of people calling your cell phone.



I've had a few phone conversations like:


Me: Hello?
The Caller: Hello? Who is this?
