This was an opportunity to come back from an absence and simply say "thanks for asking about me. I needed some time away" and leave it at that...but where would the drama be? Instead there has to be a tap dance and backstory and bullshit to wake up what was said and done.

I am not ashamed of anything that was said in my PMs. I am fully entitled to my opinions and my perceptions. I don't feel the least bit compelled to defend them or subject them to even more inaccurate interpretation.

Shit stirrers gonna stir. Drama queens gonna drama.

Ask me something in a PM, I answer in a PM and that is the intended place for the exchange to stay.

I was asked WTF my problem was, and I answered. End of story.

There is no argument here to be had.

What is wrong with this steak?

It is overcooked and tastes like shit.

Am I supposed to argue with myself until I change my mind?

I always thought Pete was a cool dude. And I figured he's one of those guys that if you were out and about in his company, sure enough someone would walk up and know Pete. Especially if in Tejas.

Sure you are entitled to your perceptions, but there is something to be said if they are grossly wrong. I just don’t see how somebody can be around Pete for well over a decade and think that he’s faking his illnesses. If your perception is off this much, where else is it off is what I would be asking myself?

He and I have had our differences, but I can never imagine thinking he was fabricating his medical horror story.

My friend and now deceased neighbor was just like that. Seemed to know everybody in town. We were at a local cruise in night in town, and I saw a friend's dad there, with his '57 T-Bird. So I'm thinking, hey, I finally have a chance to show my neighbor that I know somebody. So we're walking up, and my neighbor says, "hey, you know xxxxx too?"

Damn!

I don't limit the comment to myself. Who ISN'T entitled to their opinions? Should I tell you what food you like, what movies you like?

It's not a battle cry. It's actually more of a Captain Obvious statement.

I could have said all I had to say in full confrontation to share with the class, but it was an offline exchange.

You didn't have to out yourself you know. Given your confrontational nature you just turned up the heat to 1000. (I know. You don't care)

I don't necessarily agree with

But partly because another member who shall remain nameless
as it invites drama and it's a little, I don't know, high-schoolish?

Here's my observations. You drop this 'I'm entitled to my opinion' bomb with some regularity. You play that like a Get out off Jail Free card when you're climbing up someone's ass. Sure. You're entitled to your opinion just like everyone else.

You however don't seem to understand the concept of diminishing returns. You argue and argue (Yes argue) with UD and couch the whole thing in why should he be allowed to spew his bullshit . Excuse me but who make you the Sheriff of Righteousness? And more importantly, who gives a ****?

Since I am the most impartial judge of our peers, I recommend each sending the pm;s to me and let me decide right/wrong. There, I said it.

Or, now hear me out first, they could send each other bags of dicks and sing kumbaya. Oddly enough, that would probably be the most peaceful solution. Sad, huh?
