Perhaps his personality fits, and is appreciated, elsewhere, but for whatever reason, on this thread, it doesn't. We've all experienced this at one time or another in our lives (I certainly have): not everyone, or every group is going to love you . . .so in the interest of maximizing our opportunities for happiness, and minimizing those for conflict, we choose to move onto "places" where can enjoy ourselves, and hopefully, bring joy to others. Is this a radical notion? I simply don't understand JLA's compulsion to continue with his disruptive schtick here. (Maybe he's "working out" some playground trauma from his childhood, but all he's managing to do here is underscore the reason he was never invited into groups--he doesn't care enough about the group and his prospective role in it.)

Thanks for the post. But don't get involved. You'll be a marked person with the "old regulars". Perhaps that has something to do with bowel movements. I keep wondering about the significance of the term. JLA
