Aubvey's Netiquette

Miss Aubvey Winslow shares her Wise Words of Wisdom with the Web

Dearest World Wide Webbin' Keyboard Warriors
Listen up, cause Miss Aubvey's got something to say

Those of y'all who are goin' online and tellin' folks to kill themselves
Cause they don't agree with your thoughts on whatever and what have you

Bless your little hearts!
That really ain't very nice

I ain't here to tell y'all what to do
I only ask you to think twice

How would you feel if someone was to say to you
That you oughta cut your wrists
Or find a tree and hang yourself
That really just ain't right

Now, maybe it wouldn't bother you too much
Maybe you're all rough and tough

But some folks ain't had an easy time in life
And maybe it wouldn't take much 
To make 'em actually take a jump in the drink
Some folks are standin' on the brink

I ain't sayin' you gotta agree with every ole body's every ole thought
I'm just askin' you not to let the rotten come pourin' out
Just 'cause you disagree
With someone's religion or politickin' or sports team or what have you

Do like Miss Aubvey
Put a little spoonful of sugar on it
Let it melt in your mouth and mind a while
'Fore you let it come pourin' out on your keyboard.

Love,
Aubvey

  1. If there is something I contempt beyond anything is people poisoning others life with contempt... talk about throwing stones in house of glass.

    1. Aubvey truly agrees, and adds that the people throwing stones must be terribly miserable folk to behave so awfully.

  2. Loved the colloquialisms. Also the sentiments.

  3. Point well taken, don't understand why some people feel the need to pass on their pain,,,

  4. Yes, very good point, stop it, people. (Though I might think of myself as a keyboard warrior of another stripe)

  5. I agree, some people are so hateful, full of hate. Wish your words could help.

  6. Being from the south, these words really resonate with me. We all need more kindness. :)

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
