My apologies for my recent boorishness
December 10, 2017 at 10:21 pm
The last 10 or so days have been trying ones for me for various reasons including unexpected car repair costs, home maintenance issues I am unqualified to deal with myself and the death (though not unexpected) of a beloved pet. I've come to realize that my darkened mood is reflected in some of my posts here during that period and I apologize for that.
I guess it's best to avoid engaging in any kind of debate when you feel like the Wicked Witch of the West during that unloved time of the month. I'll take a break until after my fucking mood improves.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I can relate. I'm so sorry to hear about your recent troubles. Hope things start looking up soon. ❤
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Sorry for your troubles.
I never actually noticed any difference in your behavior.

You have nothing to apologise for.
We all have our off days.
Sorry to hear about your troubles.

AFT, sorry about your car, your house, and your pet. Seems like life piles it on sometimes.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Really? You must have missed the bit where he contended that vorlon deserved the same level of respect as a disease ridden plague rat, and told me 'Fuck you, asshole' for calling him on it.

Wow. Way to kick a person when they are already down, guys.
