To Err Is Human
And some errors are unforgivable. I understand this better than you think. When I'm overstressed or having an anxiety attack, I sometimes have these verbal eruptions. I don't mean what I say. It's hard to explain. My mind tends to store the little things that bother me until they become a mental critical mass. In the "real world", with no one to vent to, I blurt out this toxic garbage to the dog. This time, I posted it. My fault. I was in a bad way. A neighbor was gunned down, in broad daylight, by MS 13 gang members. In his own driveway. He was 56. I heard the shots. I just wanted to get that off my chest.

Yay recluse is back. Let the fun begin.
I know you will keep the dark passenger under control from now on. How is the new medication going? :_ |

we all need to be forgiven our occasional slips of letting our humanity show

Yea, verily, I say unto thee there will be more joy in MR over one poster who says sorry than over ninety-nine lurkers who never post.
Nice to see you back. |

Well sure as Hell, I'm no divinity, and so I'll never forgive you, recluse. I still haven't got the stain out of my Safari Suit - next time, you bring your own suit to go pub-crawling with us, or else you go nuded up (rather than like last time just ending up that way, in the gutter getting your morning shower from a street-cleaner).
Cheers, Marc |

If I had a nickel for every time I've said things I've regretted, I'd have lots and lots and lots of nickels! I'd be like the King of Nickels!

You are not the only person to have had a verbal eruption on MR, Recluse. However, not many people get as far as apologising.

Well the Iceland volcano is still ERUPTING and look at the havoc it is causing. At least verbal spewage (bet I could take on Tom as "king of the nickles") doesn't disrupt Air Travel.

beppe succinctly points out the real victim of this spewing! Perhaps we should send recluse's dog to pshyrnk? We can use Tom's nickels to pay the laddy at the door.
Somehow I don't think recluse will ever (or should ever) change - so let's all be sure to have our genuine asbestos spewing shields ready. And keep the iron cage door on latch for those time outs! |

I missed your verbal diarrhoea so I don't have nothing to forgive you.
But just in case - I put on my fire resistant, bulletproof, toxic scotch guarded suit - just don't leave. Your posts entertain me most of the time. If not, I just ignore them |
