No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

or they could go positive:

Or taunty:

"I'm More Christian Than You And I Don't Even Go To Church, Neener Neener"

"For A Guy Who Believes He Evolved From Monkeys, I Seem To Follow Jesus' Lessons Better Than Some People I Could Mention, But Won't Because I'm So Much Nicer."

I want those! Especially if I ever go to a town hall.

msbelle is one of the nice people. I should be more like her.

As the Reasons can attest, the nice-guy lessons bounce right off my bitterness-skin. Jilli sometimes despairs - the whole point of her book is "be nice", and it's mostly-lost on me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not true! I am a big proponent of making the distinction between nice and polite -- they are not the same thing at all.

"Polite" is the behavior that makes assholes act in a socially acceptable manner. Which, you know, we need to do.

I can't define "nice". Not enough experience.

Edited for clarity of statement.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

msbelle....nice

I am, in fact, the nicest. I haven't pointed that out recently, it should be noted.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

You're so nice
You're not good
You're not bad
You're just...nice

I'm not good
I'm not nice
I'm just right

I'm the Witch

You're the world!

ETA: That's for Miracleman, not msbelle!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm the Witch / You're all liars and thieves / like his father! / Like his son will be too / Oh, why bother?

I'm not that nice. People usually find out when they mistake courtesy, for, like, being a punk, and a doormat, and going along no matter what. It usually surprises the hell out of them, too.

You...you're singing "Into the Woods" near me.

I adore you all even more now.
