Okay, public it is...
I agree. Opposing views are what makes this place interesting. I don't appreciate getting scolded in my visitor messages
I tend to disagree with people on my friends list in private. I also left you a couple of messages in your profile over the last week or two?
and then the person changes their profile so I can't send one back.
That happened after you encouraged Tam in her litany of low insult. In light of that, your silence about the remarks I'd sent your way, etc. I thought it was clear enough that you'd moved in another direction. No idea why that would bother you.
I have been abrasive and angry in my posts lately because of the rampant unfair criticism of our President, the mainstream media and entertainment industry and every democrat politician.
I understand you feel that way. I don't agree with you. And my difference shouldn't be something you take personally.
There's a group of Republicans that aren't much better. I didn't come here to make friends and I have very few but this is the second time Town "cancelled" our "friendship" as if he can't be friends if I thank certain posts or take somebody else's side in chiding him.
You left a public thanks for this one liner by Tam:
That's not a friend. Not to me and not to Tam.
No, it wasn't. That's reason to end a friendship you'd already strained with the public comment that I wouldn't live near a black person, etc., a general silence and the above.
He won, I am angry about it and I gave him an earful in a rep message, stooping to new low here and a well deserved ban.
What do you imagine I won? I'm sorry to see it and I neither reported anything by you or have any interest in your being banned.
I've been stressed out about my health and other things in my life this year and I don't want to take it out on other members but I guess I do.
I'm sorry to hear it and I'll keep your health and general situation in my prayers.
I'm a jerk and I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer and I accept that.
If any of us were as smart as we think we are we'd be running more than our mouths. Don't let it bother you. Feel better. Anyone can be a jerk. I know I am from time to time. The rest is what we do about it.
I hope your life improves in every meaningful measure. That said:
Town Elton keeps sending me VMs to tell me I'm not a friend to anyone and he has given up on me again. What a wuss. If he can't control what people say and think, he takes his toys and goes home. Townie boy got butthurt by your lack of deep admiration and limitless respect for a left wing protester, and since I sided with you, he got butthurt again. The little girl peppers me with VMs and changes his profile so I can't send any to him. He's the biggest crybaby snowflake on TOL
Almost nothing in that was true. I sent you a message after I read the remark you thanked, above and I answered a comment you'd made. Before that I tried to nudge you off a tendency and did what I believe someone trying to act as a friend should do, which is give the best counsel I can, out of sight of others, to help. I left because I'd reached my limits and you weren't responding or appearing to listen. Nothing more or less than that.
I never peppered you with VMs. Don't be dishonest.
