I avoid saying nice things just to say them in my comments here and everywhere. I'm blunt. You can get your niceness elsewhere.
I used to be The Fat Lady in Accounting and I still am even though I am thin now and don't do people's numbers now. Being obese since I was four years old means people weren't nice to me, so I never developed that skill back at them. Plus I went to 16 schools before graduating HS and have kept on moving since. I'm always the new kid, and I'm probably not going to see you again.
So, basically I have no time for your nonsense; time is valuable; let's get to the point.
And I'm deciding to stay out of the big kids fighting here. I have no power except to help those around me succeed in this nuthouse and so that's a better place for my efforts.
"And I'm deciding to stay out of the big kids fighting here."
You and me both. Even more so this week, now that I see it has escalated into sending the FBI to each other's houses and specific threats of violence.
How much worse can it get before something changes?
