Well, I don't REALLY think this was paranoia:
"I've been on a short trip....(see travelogue ;^)...it seems as if the
schoolyard bully waited until I left the country & then tried to start
something."
Especially when the one below was addressed directly to me:
So, I'm wondering, if your name-calling allowed when it's "only"
"schoolyard bully" and "petulant" and "worse than Ed ever was"
And while we're on the topic, who are YOU to decide that Ed was even
BAD? You didn't like it, I understand. He doesn't like some of the other
things that are said here, that's fine. Neither one is good or bad, but
if folks don't want name-calling, I suggest that before they start in on
someone else, they take a good hard look at their own actions.
You included.
Now, I promise you, no more ritualistic humping from you, and you won't
get it from me.
Frankly, the thought of it is rather disturbing to begin with. I'm
surprised you used it.
"
The discussions are enlightening. Your rants and
namecalling are not.
I am beginning to sincerely suspect your capacity for
intelligent discourse in light of your aggressive and
uncalled-for attacks on anyone who does not share your
philosophies.
Enough.
Robert had a name for this behavior in the past: ritual
mounting.
You are not top dog. No one here is.
Get used to it.
Behave.
I am interested in the debates; NOT in your petulant rants
when you have nothing else to say.
Jeez...you are worse than Ed ever was.
