Well to be fair I did get a note on a day I was stuck at home with a sinus infection and was rampaging all over the boards indiscriminately and spuriously on meds and stressed over not being able to be working on all the things I needed to, so I'm not sure your statement in regards to me is totally true and the note was honestly deserved.

I don't.
So, I make sure that I don't change anything about the way I post.
If it makes me one who is headed for a train wreck; then I'll hit head on doing things the way I always have; and not with my fucking tail between my legs.

I agree. I have always been one to advocate freedom of speech. We (In America) have lost so much, does it have to extend to on line message boards? I am who I am. I make no apologies for who I am and what I say. I feel sad that it has come to this, but I do understand why. I have to question it though. Isn't a thread hi-jack subjective? Who is to say what is a hi-jack or derailment and what is a conversation? Most conversations take a left turn with no one batting an eye. The only kind of thread hi-jacking I can't stand is when it becomes a free for all party and the OP is almost forgotten.
Sigh..
I don't want to walk on egg shells. But like Mick Jagger says "You can't always get what you want....but if you try sometimes, you just might find..you get what you need.."

That's because some play both sides; to be safe or because they would like others to think they are unbiased, which is, of course, impossible.

Status: offline 		Don't get me wrong. I don't fault the moderators. I actually like them quite a bit and don't question when they make decisions like this. What I am up in arms about is the insunation that we are doing this deliberatly to ONE person and ONE person only.

That and only that is what has me pissed off royally to the point that I really don't give a flying fuck at this point. If the moderators wish to believe that I would actually limit my humor to a single person...hey, go for it. I don't truly don't give a flying fuck at this point.

MoGa, of course you are right and we have all said the same thing here, a thousand different ways and none of it matters. It is not a free society here. There are rules; subjective rules, but rules nontheless.

So walking on eggshells will now become the new black. Unless you want to go on an uplanned vacation.

You can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs. Not that I like omelette eww what a mixture egg and cheese.
 

Actually in Littlechef they make omelettes without eggs because once someone asked for fried eggs and the person said they had none but they could do him an omelette; obviously it was one of those frozen microwaveable omelettes.

How about a baseball bat?

There really should be a synopsis somewhere. For people who have a hangover. Not me. I didn't go to a club with friends and disgrace myself. That was someone else. Who isnt me. I don't care what you're thinking.

Miss M - even with an alleged hangover, you are definitely one of the popular girls. Err.. unless that gets you in trouble, and then you are not?
