I have found that those who take things angrily and post harmful comments have been hurt badly themselves. Some folks need to simply keep their thoughts to themselves.
I've had to block a person for being ugly. Sad.
I guess since that post of mine hurt others, I felt compelled to take it down.
I sought freedom here, and have found its just the same as everywhere else. Again, sad.
You are facing a tough life, pal....and you have no one.but your own outlook to blame

@JustLuAnn I do not sugar-coat, I do not make believe. The truth could set you free....but probably not
Keep searching for utopia and maybe you'll find it. Or maybe you'll end up wondering what you could have done, instead of wasting all that time.

                                        Passive Aggressive Queen here. Maybe I should change my name...
Also, can I change my comment of "Sad" to "Sigh" as I cannot abide to be thought of as quoting HIM (45) I can't even say his name.
@JustLuAnn you can do one name change, use it wisely.
Posts can be edited after posting for X amount of time depending upon what level you are:
"Q: How can I edit or delete my posts?
Since members are commenting on your posts, we limit how much time you have edit a post. If there are no comments, you can edit a post for 4 weeks. Once there are comments, the amount of time given to edit a post grows by your member level (Level: 1-4 can edit for 6 * level hours, Level: 5-7 up to 5 days. Level 8+ up to 2 weeks). "

                                        Gosh....you're like the most adorable guy I've ever seen. Can I scratch you behind your ears?
@JustLuAnn Sure, can I lick your ear?
@PondartIncbendog hahahaha too cute.
Depends ....how old an old dog are you? Or are you a young pup?
@JustLuAnn I'm just a shade over sixty. Young still.
@PondartIncbendog I will turn 65 this December. Nice to meet you dog.
@JustLuAnn Rarr. I'm actually 64, but I like to lie a little to keep in practice.
@PondartIncbendog Yes I know. I checked you out lol
They are out there. You should see my blocked list. I'm pretty fast on the trigger these days.
No reason to feel bad. The spectrum of hooman behavior is endless.

                                        dog...where have you been all my life?
@JustLuAnn Under the house scratching myself?
@PondartIncbendog Come out Come out .....Let's play.
I feel sad that you’ve decided to take your post down, but realise that is your choice. I don’t think we should feel responsible for other people’s angry or abusive comments though, and allow their adverse reaction our posts to compel us to curtail or remove them. The fact that some people can’t handle seeing contrary views to theirs and lash out negatively, does mean that a nerve has been touched, but they need to keep their responses civil, and if they don’t I suggest blocking them. It would be a pity if we couldn’t feel free to air views and ask for opinions without the thread being taken over by someone with an axe to grind (as I’ve found out several times just lately). That’s just tolerable as long as they don’t become personally abusive, which unfortunately sometimes they do when they can’t win by reasoned argument, and then they often resort to personal attacks...that’s when the blocking option needs to be used. Sadly, there is no reason to believe that this site is any less prone to knee jerk responses and immoderate language than any other.

Well...you spin an eloquent word. And, I like what you said. A lot.
