In your world... in my world sound advice is most welcome... would I
be more acceptible to you were I to respond with disingenuous
Duh'Wayneisms... seems you and Duh'Wayne derive great pleasure from
other's stupidity because you somehow feel their greater failure than
yours elevates yoose, that's just plain selfish. I try to help people
to help themselves, not by offering sorrowful pity. Your ****ing on
the drowning may give them a brief warm feeling but is no kind of help
in the long run... you're more into relieving yourself than in helping
others, you must be Duh'Wayne's evil twin.
