    It's you.  I couldn't think of any way else to tell you.  HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NO never. 

    You are like our AM member,  Baba.  Always nice.  The difference is Baba has made it to serene land and you and I have yet to get there. 

    I won't go there without finding you my friend and taking you along, because I know you would never leave me behind if I asked you.

    Love

    Just like our guy who is trying desperately to be a bad ass but cannot pull it off.  That is a compliment to him.   He is too nice underneath it all.

    To be blunt, it genuinely hurts my heart, especially when they do it here. I have seen it a few times with different people. The difference is, I don't think these people are genuine trolls. They just have unpopular or misguided opinions. But here, when I respect the person and I care about them, it's twice as sad. If I think they'll listen, I'll pipe up, but otherwise I just let them be. There is nothing I can say to change their mind and I can't put myself into it. 

    We're never going to see 100% eye to eye on every issue with anyone. I just try to keep my distance and avoid being involved in the topic with them. As is the case with anyone else, they have the right to an opinion, even if I wholeheartedly believe it's wrong.

    I stop adoring them and start abhorring them, that's what happens. One thing that's guaranteed to terminate my friendship with someone is a split personality. There isn't a word in the English language that's strong enough to express how much I hate people like that, and once it happens I do not forgive and forget.

    Truth is, there's no unringing that bell. I've actually had it happen when one of my oldest net friends flipped out and called me an Obama-Commie or something like that. 

    I lmao, what else can you do? Certainly didn't fight with him, just observed the meltdown in wonder. And reminded him that I don't do other people telling me what think.
