Welcome to the brave new whirled, where bored idiots do such things “for the lolz”.
I posted a welcome [along with a link]to this troll and s/he went on a rant projecting about how I was *cynical*...blah......blah....blah. S/he never even bothered to look at the link and think. Completely ,missed the point and projected the quote to me.
S/he wanted to play in the sandbox on her terms. LOL
So sad....too bad. Instead of acting like a bull in a china shop.....some finesse would have gone a long way.
As someone said, up-thread, maybe lurking for a while and see where you fit in.
