Actually, you make my point in your #252.
Cursing and name calling directed, especially directed at a woman old enough to be your mother does not present you as a upstanding man of character.
Stick to the high ground and your reputation benefit.
Love it! I have four sons 13-20. My heart has no trouble being stimulated.
I prefer red wine . . .
I certainly wasn't offended, sorry I came off that way. I just disagreed that two of the men accused had necessarily done anything wrong. They were at a party where there was drinking, but I can't get worked up about that. A stripper came and two of the guys left. Apparently, they didn't want to see her.
I don't want to upset you, and I clearly don't think having a few drinks is no big deal. If your son lives away at college, unless he's got religious reasons for not drinking, odds are pretty good, he and his friends are drinking. Not necessarily to excess, but drinking. Ask him if the parties he attends are usually centered around a keg. Most college parties are.
To paraphrase you, “Miss Moderator! Miss Moderator! Waaaaaa...”
What gives you the idea that I’m as young as you imply?
People deserve the reponses brought on by the stupid notions they offer to this and any other forum, regardless of their gender.
Please save your sanctimonious advice for someone who cares to hear it.
I didn’t report your comment. I actually hoped it would stand.
I assumed you were a student—I didn’t think someone older would say such a thing.
If it’s sanctimonious to avoid expletives and to expect others to do so, especially in public, then I am.
I would prefer any discussion be in the public forum, rather than FReepmail. Thanks.
My son is at a service academy.
You’re so testy. Thought you would appreciate a private reply. My bad, I guess.
Since when are mere letters — letters, not words, mind you — expletives?
I thought I gave a cordial reply, so I'm not sure why you inferred testiness. I just think my posts are too good NOT to be shared with an audience!
