The GF has gone so far down the rabbit hole recently that you are starting to sound like the voice of reason.
Look in the mirror when you say that and wonder why? 🙂

I'm not complaining. I like being down the rabbit hole.

You seem like an odd fellow to me!

I only like posts, never posters. I even liked some - in fact, quite a few - of Her Who Shall Not Be Named's posts. And I downvoted some of... someone else...'s posts.

I don't claim to be impartial, but I am willing to swim against my own stream once in a while. Nullius in verba.
“This above all: to thine own self be true
And it must follow, as the night the day
Thou canst not then be false to any man
Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!” -- Polonius, Hamlet, Act 1, Scene III

Who's upset? Maybe in your dreamland. Maybe you didn't read what I just said.

I'm thinking that you continually pontificating about my life shows that you're upset... about something.

Fair point.
Unless you are a serial killer. Then don't be true to thy self and stop killing people.
Strangely although widely quoted Polonius was a thoroughly unpleasant character.

He got this part right, at least.

Too many people concern themselves with lying about themselves, even to themselves. So, even if you cannot be true to anyone else, at least be true to yourself. This is the way to mental health. Even if you're an abhorrent, morally ambiguous person, knowing and understanding the truth of oneself means that at least you won't be crazy. If you're ever on trial for your life, if you're morally ambiguous, you could fake being nuts, but at least you won't actually be nuts.

I believe you see the results of what it says about what it does to you in the amount of red thumbs. You probably have as many or more red thumbs than I have in 15 years.

Even I noticed the amount of red thumbs you been getting. These are just random red thumbs no one went out and said lets give the gooster a bunch of red thumbs. They have been well earned. How has that affected your reputation on the site?

I just answered the part of your quote I had a comment on.

I don't think you could find anyone with a bad word to say about HandyAndy. Can you say that?

I miss Andy too.

He has always been one of the more straight-up users on this site.

A compliment from him carries weight, IMO.
