That is not a kind thing to do.

who tokes pretty much every 20 minutes (I'd no idea it was that bad) I'm touchy.
JBK's god is his god. Whatever. We all die alone in the end and life is only a borrowing of bones.

For me, Briana comes very close.
And like Dana, I started to write something and then backed away.
But why back away ?
My issues with Sexobon's postings comes from experiences I had as a kid,
when I realized it's not a good thing to go after someone
who has an illness or some other sort of unique situation.
Calling names has been an issue for me, and I try very hard
to avoid the "you" in sentences like "What you need to do is..."
The word seems generally to provoke only anger, not understanding.
I asked for the feelings of others because this particular exchange went on for so many postings,
with nothing really new being said, except the ridicule getting more intense.
Maybe some people felt as I did that the exchange was going badly, or maybe not.
And @Clod: Yes, I (usually
) do want to know what others are thinking.
So, from me to JBK... hang in there with what you do best, and ignore all the rest.
