Ummm... so when are you coming back?

Oh my goodness. Apparently I forgot a smiley in my post. Now I'm a villager with a pitchfork.

You apologized to me, silly. For being so, uh, whatever that was about my religion. I didn't say you should apologize to Eral for anything you wrote. I meant it should be workable out, considering I didn't even notice what had happened.

Lordy, I told Eral I was sorry if I offended her, because I didn't mean to, and it had nothing to do with me!

You can feel apologetic for hurting someone, even if you didn't do anything wrong, you know. It's sort of a way of life for me. I step on toes I never saw - sometimes still don't see - on a regular basis.

Sometimes people mis-take things. I usually say, "Sorry, didn't mean to offend you, I was joking." They say, "Sorry, I was being oversensitive." Then it's over, and it's bloody easy.

But I'm still not saying you have to apologize.

I'm saying you're being silly.

And if that offends you, well, that's silly, because I like silly people. Silly.

If you just have better things to do with your time, that's different.

And I meant what I said about agreeing with you about most things outside of the fundamental reasons for living.

Stop hiding your hurt behind flippancy, you. It's unbecoming.

Oh, and I hope you're not now ticked at me for being such a mom. I am a mom.

You know, I never intended this thread to be a real "Leaving Forever! :angry: " topic.

I'd like to add that at this point I have taken my Spider Jerusalem action figure and tied his wrist to my Cassidy (from Preacher) action figure just so I can work out which positions are feasible with them and which aren't.

Read that and weep, internet. Weep!

Firstly, despite appearances to the contrary, I'm not coming back.

Secondly, my speech did contain such an apology for causing unintended 'fallout' offence.

Thirdly, I still have yet to receive my apology for having the finger of accusation so firmly and equally as unjustly pointed my way from the accusatory party. Since after all this time it has not been forthcoming, and is unlikely ever to be,

Fourthly, your case was different. I was out of order in the remarks I made toward you, however you will note the same person who accused me was most vocal in pointing it out and insisting I apologize - which I did because it was the right thing to do. So the hypocrisy and to my dismay the implicit acceptance of this situation by other forumers has been noted. I see little point in staying around people that accept this behaviour.

Fifthly, the only offence you caused me lara was not to give my speech a "Magnificent" vote, but I understand when compared to the great literary works you peruse, it is not surprising it falls far short of their standard.

Well, it seems I've unintentionally upset someone that I personally had no problems with and liked very much.


That is such a relief. Glad to hear I have just been over-sensitive and we can all carry on as usual. Please pardon me for being so wussy.


:whistle:

Krazy, I asked if you've got a problem with me. I explained my problem clearly, and without rancour. Your response has answered my question - but a simple 'yes' would have been fine.
By all means hop on your high horse and ride off. After we've finished being upset, we shall enter this event into The History of CT, and recall it mystifiedly in later years.
"Does anybody know what that was about?"
"Nope."
"Nup."
:grim: (That'll be BR)
"Nope."

Enjoy your dudgeon. You are being a complete dipshit. :rip:

And you've got more than 8% of the forum posts already! You certainly passed me in short order.

Eral, whether you were aware of not, (and I think it stretches credibility that you weren't aware that your posts were upsetting to me on some level), I did find your posts upsetting.

No doubt, you could claim no small measure of faux righteous indignation on my part, which I wouldn't deny, but the fact remains I was hurt on some level that you thought I might be provoking you for up until that point I believed our 'relationship' for want of a better word to be amiable and I certainly held no animosity towards you.

To that end, I was seeking an apology from you, which would have promptly ended this matter. It was not forthcoming and this stupid and quite frankly absurd squabble has now escalated to the point where I don't feel like posting here. I believe there is a principle here and whilst I can and do forgive your actions, I am still somewhat upset that you felt no need to apologize.
