Those weren't harassment.

Your posting them for about the thousandth time insisting on putting your false spin on them which arises out of your repressed sexuality is.

You need help.

Get it.

I don't care what he says about roller skates
or keys
I don't see that as harassment
I see it as INSANITY
and not on his part

Your position is crazy as far as I'm concerned
but you're certainly entitled to it
but I doubt I will ever see it the way you do
I'm with Justice Cardozo on this one
The Timorous May Stay at HOME
you cannot make the world safe for the most fragile people- there are laws, there are TOU, but making people tailor their lives to accommodate extreme fragility is too much of an incursion into the freedom of others

If you are willing to tailor your life to so fit people, fine
but it is not the duty of society to make everyone like you

I could post that to a dozen people from that era and it would invoke in them immediate nostalgia for that song well unless they'd forgotten the song, it was a while ago. But, so were roller skate keys so one would either not get the comment at all or associate it with the song. Especially in light of the other comments.

Opinions on harrassment? Well we all have them. Then there is the actual litigated version that "logical" people are bound to when making a general reference. One person can claim her own standard if she likes and apply it how ever she wants; but, that isn't really logical in a discussion where such a universally accepted definition is available...well maybe it would be logical if the person was angry about something or had a vendetta against some of the participants in the discussion...

A new problem occurs when an obvious interpretation for ungentlemanly behavior is clear...and the ungentleman says something like "it depends on what is, is," or, song, what song?
