Thrive to spite them

What I was trying to say Fay, is that no matter what I try or how I try to explain I can't because it ends up coming out wrong and I end up sounding rude or hurtful and that's not what I want.

I don't know how to explain, I'm sorry.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

It's all right. You're upset - I do understand that. It's a difficult time. I'm glad I misunderstood you, because it upset me - but we're cool. It's all cool.

Go Team Cookies, say I.

Also, {{smonster}} because I just like hugging you, and also because I respect your bravery in coming forward when you still felt like a wee little newbie

The thing is Fay, I'm upset because I can't be articulate.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

askye, Fay, stop. You're upsetting yourselves, and getting upset that the other's upset. which is both a good reflection on each of you, and counterproductive. Kiss (with tongues) and make up.

There's a dropped tag in Buffy 3, in Cindy's post above the one where she's requesting that Zoe stop trying to provoke Darth. Do Stompies pick up dropped closing tags, 'cause the rest of the page is italicizing for me in Netscape.

Thanks!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Got it, Monique -- thanks for catching it.

Thank you for the fast response!

Oh, and Fy - good intervention in UnAmerican. Very elder statesbird.

Jim, I appreaciate your concern but I'm not saying anything bad to Fay at this point.

I'm not mad at her.

I'm not mad at anyone currently.

I'm perfectly fine and not upset or in any kind of emotional upheaval.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Is there a line for the people enraged at having their username misspelled multiple times, on purpose, in response to a kindly-phrased request to spell said name correctly?

Cause if there is, put me in it.

That's just fucking rude. And I'm sorry I was rude in return. No, no, I'm not.
