I'm sorry for the stress, Fred.

Oh no, Fred! I hope Teddy pulls through... hugs to you all.

Do any of you have a different reaction between offering to do something, very publicly and very often, and between someone assuming you will do the exact same thing?

I'm asking because yesterday a teacher assumed I would do for her what I had offered to do the week before (before a deadline had passed) for another teacher and it just chapped me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm so sorry, Fred. I hope things work out for the little guy....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck to all of you, Fred.

Do any of you have a different reaction between offering to do something, very publicly and very often, and between someone assuming you will do the exact same thing?

Yeah, absolutely.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Definitely, Kat. I also have a very different reaction to being asked if I will do something, even if it is a fairly perfunctory request, and it being assumed that I will do it.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I get all twisted about "we" as in, "We need to get some estimates and work out a budget for this project."

"We?" Do you mean, "me"? Because if it's me, it'll take a little bit longer than if we are ALL working on this project. So let us be clear that we is me.
