297. oh so it's ok for YOU to get "nasty and hostile"

Tue Feb 11, 2014, 05:49 PM

Feb 2014

when you feel you've been mistreated. got it.

but not for anyone else. if they think they've been lied about or mistreated, well they just need to shut up about it. shove it down deep like a good woman, then let it out inappropriately later

you still haven't proved where i lied, have you.

you've been shown by me, by Sheldon, by Ohio Joe where you have lied and misrepresented...

i direct you again to posts #54 where bella insults sea, in a post to you; and to post #62 by sea where she refers to this post by Bella that insults/calls out/attacks her; to post #81 in particular the comments of Juror 6, who is the one who has "nailed it"; and to post #183 by Sheldon.

but you keep playing the victim, misrepresenting, whining and complaining about how you are oh so mistreated on this board. you are very good at it, and should take pride.

buzz buzz buzz busy bees.
