I suppose I am lucky I didn't read the post! I can't even offer a "should have not" or a "why did you" response. My opinion probably doesn't matter to many, but to those that understand what I am saying, it is valued.
Right is right and wrong is wrong. The only gray areas I allow for myself is in quilting. If I offend anyone, then please PM me and I will adjust my attitude if I think it is necessary. Ha! I was actually asked to leave an online college class because the instructor did not understand the "tone" of my written word in a class discussion board. Sarcastic remarks will come back to bite you in the arse every time, unless you personally know the people you are speaking to.
I do know that I did not read this initial discussion topic. I do know that I did not respond to anyone about their puppies. I really wish that I could have seen it. I have been told that I should have been a Psycho-analyst. Mom says I analyze things too much. Dad tells me I am a psycho. Go figure!
