Call it the Bovine Law, and it tied the record, being about Julie in the
first post.

I think it fair and natural that she be able to write about herself -
what's your excuse?

That sounds awful! What are you going to do about it?

I lost track. Who gets the credit for throwing that at Julie when she
posts about her problems and then rejects every suggestion given? That
is brilliant.

There ARE certain subjects she doesn't comment on - except to give an inane "me too."

Even when she doesn't take it in that direction.

I have noted this from time to time, but when Julie became the
topic of my BLT thread, I decided I had to document it.

Let's be honest. It is usually her that takes it that way, and usually
by posting something that is obviously total bullshit.

Not that.... I meant the answer to Julie's quest for suggestions ....
That sounds awful! What are you going to do about it?

It does seem that way and I seriously do not get it. My life seems rather
ordinary to me. I'm going to go shower and get dressed soon then go to the
store for a few things that I couldn't get yesterday. One of which is a
bell pepper for my chili. I did order dried ones but they won't arrive
until tomorrow. I cooked the beans last night so all I have left to do is
cook the meat and other veg and put it all together.

Yes. I have noticed that too. One of the threads (I forget which one now)
has them talking all sorts of smack about me and for no reason.

But I'm not the one doing it. The dog pilers are making stuff up about me,
then laughing about it and conversing back and forth as if it were the
truth. Then they will accuse me of lying when it wasn't even me who said
whatever in the heck it was to begin with. It's sick and sad.

Don't you start with me! I have a new car and time on my hands. And you're
near me! How would you like it if I got out my trusty old alphabet magnets,
put your name all over my car and drove through Seattle? I don't think you
would. Don't tempt me!

There are many threads here that I never comment on because I either don't
have an answer, don't eat or like that food, never made the food, etc. I
don't usually even venture into those but once in a while I will
accidentally click on one and there they are, discussing me. They don't
even seem to have notice when I leave! Which I did do recently. I got so
fed up with the crap going on in another newsgroup with some of the players
here that I just didn't post a thing on any newsgroup for days. They were
still going on about me.

I guess I missed that! I did make a few comments. Sheesh.

As it goes, smart people talk about ideas and concepts, average folks
talk about things and stuff, and stupid people talk about other people. :-)

LOL It sounds very childish. It was childish when my EX-husband pitched
a hissy fit and scratched nasty words in the paint on my car door. (I
had him thrown in jail for that.) At least alphabet magnets might only
slightly damage the paint on her new car.

I wonder why a 55 year old woman with a teenage daughter has alphabet
magnets.

I didn't hang on to them. I actually used them on my old van. For a time.
Some years ago. For a reason. It wasn't a bad thing.

I noticed that you were gone for a few days, and I imagine it was very hard
on a few of the juvenile gang members.
