Gee, Twink, I was trying to give you some helpful advice. How was I to know it was your childhood nickname, for crying out loud? I never heard the term before.
You started this exchange. You jumped right in and felt free to make those remarks. My post was decent and polite, and you responded in an obnoxious way. If you’re going to dish it out, you have to be able to take it.
I see you pinged someone else to the discussion. I may be away from the computer for a day or so. If your friend jumps into the discussion, I will address any comments when I return.
But my position falls on the conservative side of this issue, and it’s right in line with the purpose of this forum.
Childhood pet name. :) Save the advice.
I never heard the term before either. But you needed to google it and make a comment about it...duh. I’m computer illiterate but I’m far from stupid, Tired of Taxes. Nice save.
I was obnoxious? Is that the new word for honest? I have no sympathy or empathy for the whiners, those wallowing in the victim mentality so prevalent today. I really don’t give a damn about anyone’s racial make up or hyphenated crap. You seem to be the one with the racial issue here. IMO of course. But I have been called obnoxious so there’s that.
I can take it, that’s not in question here. You’re the one whining to the mods about posts.
Heh, I pinged Eaker, because of the screenname thing. Nothing else. The screenname has been an issue for some and we talked about it, so I pinged him :) I thought he’d find the exchange funny (about the name). Thus, I pinged him. It was “here we go again with the screenname thing” and nothing else.
