I don't think it's nice to dismiss Rete's outpouring on her personal diabetes issues with ' it's not proven', hardly shows someone in touch with people's feelings. You will see a lot of people have disagreed with Sally's 'knowledge on genetics'.
Again Ray you are acting as the self-appointed arbitrator of the site.
People in glass houses, I have seen you consistently place less than nicey nice posts to Willmore, Desdomona, Emily the maid and pretty much anyone that dares mention moving to Florida

No No ... You have been picking on her for a long time ...
Willmore deserves it ...Desi is ok now ....and if you come from Cleveland
you deserve it .. (no idea myself)...

And of course you know I'm right cos you bothered to reply
to my minor comment

self-appointed arbitrator... well somebody has to try ...


And now you edited.... Elsie the Maid you mean ....
thats a whole other story... Thing are not always as they appear ..

That's because she talks bollocks. Emily the maid was the person from Cleveland. Then there's the naive Brits that ask about moving to Florida.
I think I'll storm off and take down my avatar after pontificating on molecular genetics

It makes me feel sick seeing people eat so much canddy all the time. Then you get people putting out plates with little collection boxes asking for donations to the candy bowl. Am I a scrooge for not contributing.
I feel often that living/working here I am in some weird children's universe where adults behave like children (specifically regarding eating). I still see eating burgers as kids food and something one grows out of when you get older. Here people always moan when they have some 'adult' food like roast chicken or spinach something or lentil something, they always look forward to the days when they can have 'comfort' childrens food like a hot dog or burger. (we get free food at my company!)



I just love broad generalizations.
Now please pass the bowl of mint M&Ms.

Read the thread, again I was very restrained, did not name call, dismiss other people's feelings on their medical condition and then storm off like a spoilt child. Like everyone I have people I gravitate to and click with, others just post insufferable nonsense in every 'victim' thread going.
There appears to be some nastiness going on in the slavery thread, you need to get your old arse over there.
