166. Now you're finger wagging? And playing the SHAME game?

Take your own advice there, pal. You're the one who jumped in out of the blue and called me "fucking weird." I didn't get personal with YOU -- but your "go to" is to head straight to personal insult territory. If anyone should be "ashamed" it's you.

And go ahead and "block" me if you don't like me. I don't mind. Not one bit--more power to you. I won't have to endure your out-of-the-blue insults for no good reason.

USE the tools that the admins have offered you. It's better than you playing these strange word games, mischaracterizing my intent and attacking me for no good reason.

Since you're giving me advice about what to remember, I tell you what--you remember this--when you come after someone and start insulting them, maybe you should make sure that the person you're accusing is one who actually "did you wrong."
