Peeps, I feel I should apologize for having exposed you to the deleterious spewings of the imbecile known as ken863 for such an extended period. I really don't like me when I'm in thrash-mode and I imagine you don't think much of that version of me, either. I think I'll go back to being my normal, empassioned and sometimes witty self.
And I refuse to harbor hatred toward ken and his ilk in my heart. I have nothing but pity for them. Why? Well, I believe it was Malachy McCourt who put it best:
"Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die."
Yeah. That's spot on.
Cthulhu is my Copilot 
All will be forgiven if there are cute cat and dog pix.
You shall have your pix. Oh, yes…
I get more of a kick out of him than anything. Laughing at that sort of tool is the best way to get back at them, anyway. And we all need a way to vent once in a while. It just so happens he's a good target for it.
In other words, nothing for which to apologize.
Kudos on the sales increase during the ordeal!
Bah! Negativity is fuel for the jet I say. Anyhow, I'll likely have a FTP server thing set up for you to get new stuff by day's end. No risk of junky spam folder nonsense then.
Yep, scraped off my shoe, blocked him, and life goes on more quietly.
I think I've just found my new tattoo. Thanks, Kirk!"Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die."
I'm sorry that you spent so much negative energy on that fool. You did what you needed to do at that time but you came back from the brink. Hooray! It's easy to get caught up in other people's venom. No need to apologize to us. I almost went out for popcorn while I was watching the show. π
It's all a process, Kirk. You had to go through it before letting it go. Not a moment before. People like that are a whirlwind. The more debris/sh*t they pick up on their spew, the faster they go. Soon as you slow down, it all drops. So be it. He is not worth your astute and hilarious comebacks.
Your smarts are much too valuable to be wasting on someone who doesn't know the difference between "its" and "it's" and apparently is unable to locate the shift button.
However, I'm with Amy– it was entertaining watching you give him that verbal lashing. Kudos on being able to even find things to argue with him about in all that drivel. I couldn't read most of his messages– it was starting to turn my brain into pudding.
Which is fitting, considering he seems like he probably smells of tapioca π
Hehehe… You said Tool…
Is this why we are warned not to turn to the dark side?
"It's all a process, Kirk. You had to go through it before letting it go. Not a moment before." Right. And as Marley recently reminded me: Control yourself. Take only what you need from it.Thanks so much, jaypo.
I see no need for warnings. I kinda like it over here.
Kzinti: Is this why we are warned not to turn to the dark side?arbed: I see no need for warnings. I kinda like it over here.
Yeah, and I think I know why…
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Yes, but no pizza… Dammit…
Oh, it was great fun! Sort of like the spin cycle in the washer, and ken is the lone sock. Shake him off for a bit, but let the wit continue! π
[γγγ§γγ]
Actually I'm glad you called him out on it for a short while. People can't be allowed to get away with that nonsense – especially since he was targeting the gay community and young women. Glad you stepped in. But thanks for reminding me to let it go too, it's just too agonizing to not speak up, but I'm done.
Yay cookies!
'nuff said. π
I'll have pizza soon. I still want the cookies.
No no, it's not that I didn't like you at all through all of that. As others have said, it's kind of nice to see someone stand up to the numbskull, albeit a little frustrating to watch in its inevitable futility.
Here's something to get you back on track. π
"Here's something to get you back on track." I asked Karin if she could knit me one of those. Her answer was, "That's not knitted; it's crocheted."Was that a no, do you think?
Absolutely not a "no". That was just a lead-in to the next obvious question: "Well, can you crochet one of those for me?"
Of course, being the difficult being that I am, all that response would elicit from me would be the question: "Well ok, that one is crocheted, but I asked can you knit one for me?"
π
Besides, I just found an online pattern for a knitted one, so now she has no excuse…. really.
OMG – I found something most awesome.
Time to brush up on the old leatherworking skills, eh?
"I just found an online pattern for a knitted one, so now she has no excuse…"You are my bestest fwend!
OMG – I found something most awesome. I saw one of those a while back that was all black, but this one looks a bit nicer. The lacing up the back is… how do you say… freakingcreepy!
I know. The lacing made me feel claustrophobic judy looking at it.
Kirk, I'd rather read you in lambastatory mode than 99% of people at their shiny-happy best. Plus, take ten points for Miskatonic U for using "deleterious" casually in a sentence. You're the best.
