You appear self-destructive to me, but if being Ms.Goody Two-Shoes one minute and making nasty sewer-type cracks about your fellow posters the next produces a result that makes you happy, carry on. Something is definitely making you appear to be quite bitter in this place, and bitter isn't all that much fun (imo), and would be unnecessary if you didn't continue to solicit the hostility you used explicitly to enjoy but say you no longer do.
Some people enjoy feeling victimized. I don't know if you are among those. I do know that you appear to be seeking hostility and reacting, when you get it, with bitterness, which seems to me both unreasonable and unnecessary.
People here are getting along pretty well, X. Haven't you noticed? For a political thread with lively disagreement, there's rather a minimum of ugliness here, actually. You might consider the just-a-person role instead of the superior-victim-seeking-persecutors one. Just to see what would happen?
But given your intransigence, I suggest you put me back on Ignore. Then you won't notice me noticing when you make nasty cracks. If you do continue to make them. Maybe you will stop! It is all the same to me (though not really; because we used to be friends, i wish you'd get a clue), but would be much better for you, I think.
If, as you say, you truly weren't "exempting" yourself from your hypocrisy, sewer etc type characterizations, then that's hopeful evidence of nascent self-awareness.
Look. You seem unhappy and bitter on SI to me, except when you seem like the nicest person in the world. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe you like the odd dynamic you create around you. If so, well, enjoy.
I'm off for the rest of the day. BTW. |
