You're right.

I don't despise anybody.

Not here, not in 3d.

There are some people here I feel very sorry for. They are people here so consumed with hatred that they can't lead healthy lives. There are people here so fixiated on one unattainable goal that they have lost all sense of balance in their lives. There are people here unable to express themselves in simple English, but who need to resort to potty mouth to express themselves.

Yes, I feel sorry for these people and their obviously unhappy lives. Sometimes I wish I could take them aside for some counseling and see whether I could help them.

But despise them? Nope. Hasn't happened yet. Never will.

"They have a lot of people fooled then. I assume you're being facetious here."

No. They have become partners to put on a public face. I don't believe for a second that either of them would trust the other with anything of value to them. The marriage is contrived, and survives only by the judicious swallowing of huge quantities of bile. Just my opinion, of course...
