If you were me, I think that would make for an interesting "Freaky Friday" spinoff.
I've done nothing to deserve that.

My view is that in conforming yourself to such a harsh milieu, you yourself have become one of the monsters maintaining such a milieu.
If you don't get the point, just say so and stop boring everyone.

Pretty sure you misrepresent yourself all day, every day. 😉
The Misfit Queen certainly does not need defending - her contributions to this website over the years stand for themselves. She is one of the people here that make many of us come back again and again.

But I am having a super-crap day and this just struck me why many of us leave again and again.

Enough. If you need someone to badger day after day there are so many candidates. Why try to destroy what is good about the forums.

There is content and there is tone. If you want to disagree with content that is fine. We all have different experiences in this life and gloriously we all see the world differently. Tone speaks volumes. There is disagreeing and there is being disagreeable.


Hear hear!

Sequins catch the light—

knuckledraggers in drag.

You're not supposed to have a super-crap day on a Sunday.

Save it for Monday. I schedule it so all my super-crap days are on a Monday.

That way I'm not disappointed.

Kevin,
What do you know about Martial Arts? 😉

Dear Rusty, only this: to show less than I know. 😉

Deserve what?

Well, I have expressed my view.

What's the point from your side of things, if you don't mind explaining?

TBH, despite seeing several batches of a dozen or so notifications about your replies, in recent times for the sake of self-care I have decided to just delete those notifications for the sake of my tender and sensitive soul.

I hope even a crusty and battle-weathered character like you can understand.

I disagree with you, but I will take you at your word that you are (were) having a crap day at time of writing, and therefore I will leave my rebuttals for another time.

Non sequitur. (Again.)
Back at you, Mz. Non-sequitur.

And I think maybe I should go further and say outright that you seem to trot out "non-sequitur" when perhaps I have made a valid observation and at the time you could not come up with a cogent response. Otherwise you just come across as haughty and dismissive.

Maybe give it a little more time for the rebuttal to formulate itself, if you intuit that a valid rebuttal could be made?


@Suzianne said
You keep on telling yourself that, if it makes you feel better.
Would you like me to compile a selection of your recent posts and send them to Russ?

If you were just a little more adept and didn't stir up so much trouble for yourself, you might have fewer "crap days", Ms. Pottymouth.

And I hope (despite mirages and misinterpretations) you "know" me well enough to get that I don't mean that in a "Women, Know Your Place!" way.

P.S. -- I hope you haven't been attempting some kind of R. D. Laing-esque mind-scrambling game on me without my consent, because I would consider that rather impolite.

It seems you joined a year and a half ago -- or were you here before?

If so, may I ask if RHP used to be more of a hetero-whatever boys' club?

If that were the case, then of course I would appreciate Suzi's efforts to make RHP more inclusive.

The problem is that she seems to be exclusive and controlling in her own way.
