249. You don't care so much you keep coming out to play, hoping to get away with more shit.

Don't feel bad. You just got caught posting thoughtless crap. Lots of those who don't know what is going on do it too. You have company.

You did let us in on your life. You let us know that you can't admit you can't follow your own postings, that you really don't have anything to say other than attack other DU'ers who do, and that you have way too much time on your hands.

How about doing a little volunteer time at a food bank? Meals on Wheels could use some help. I know a group that can put you in touch with your local volunteer coordinator to take people to their chemo sessions. It would make you feel so much better than just manning the internets barricade trying to maintain the status quo.

Sorry if I can't come play with you more often. But sometimes I actually do things during a week. So go ahead and post some crap snark - the best you can come up with - and I will get back to whatever inane whining you have when I can.

(Oh. Just some help. Before you start with the lame complaining about spelling and typing - check your own posts. That kind of childish pedantry is really bad form, but especially if you screw up that way in the very post where you call someone else to task for it. Makes you look really silly. But thanks for the giggle.)
