[Rant Alert]
So I was curious on your opinions of “vomment” etiquette. And for those of you who aren’t familiar with the term, it’s basically online word vomit.
I ask as a recent vommenter.
I was talking to this very cool, witty, smart guy recently, and after a slew of shitty events last week, I was online (it’s like being drunk at a wedding—you just need to excuse yourself and go to bed) and I accidentally vommented. So I haven’t heard from him since. And I even apologized for it after the fact and still, nothing. It wasn’t crass or rude…or even creepy. Just out of left field (though a topic we had actually talked about once before).
I believe if we’d known each other a month more, it’d almost have been endearing.
So what is the *right* way to handle these situations? Or did I just f*ck things up and need to move on?
Thanks for your advice, and companion stories are welcomed, too!
