How about a straight forward Chatty Cathy whatever thread...where the yellow brick road leads to Munchkin land...when the mind gets boggled it really doesn't seem so idiotic. Ah the sound of Angels singing!

enchanted,
Perhaps if you had asked me, instead of assuming, then you would have gotten the correct answer. Instead you assigned meaning to my post that was utterly false.
I suggest next time you either ask your questions in the open. This email conspiracy crap is really old news and does nothing but cause trouble.

We might have been I can't recall, been spending too much time other places...I think I just need a dose of real life...I thought doing my taxes would suffice but I need to be able to see expressions, and hear a tone of voice so that I can understand the meaning of some of what is said. Bye.

enchanted,
I have done a search on the words "maggots" "carcass" "fresh kill"... I have yet to find any post that sounds like what you attributed my post to talking about.
Would you please explain your accusation about my post to me?

What did your buzzing post and flies post refer to inside? I'm asking you straight out.
I never said you said those things, someone else did elsewhere, and I thought it might have been an oblique reference. No more than that, I raised the question, I did not accuse.
If I'm wrong, I'll apologize. However, I would still like to know why you were saying 'shoo fly' and "buzzing around" to another poster here.
If it was innocuous, then my post was meaningless and didnt' apply to you and I don't understand why you think I was talking about you.

Perhaps that flies & their buzzing are everpresent & annoying? That is what I took Inside's posts to mean...

Maybe I read it wrong, and if I did, I apologize. I'm *sorry* if I made a mistake in reading it. It happens sometimes, at least I'll say I'm sorry if it's warranted.
Thanks for pointing it out bunnicula, maybe I was overly wary and suspicious because of the possible connection. I didn't think of your explanation. Inside's explanation is the one that matters most tho, I guess, and I haven't heard that yet. One of my buttons got pushed maybe, I dunno and I raised questions. Just questions. Again, sorry.

Enchanted,
Had you bothered to ask on that other thread I would have told you. Bunnicula is actually about right on target. The words I used came from a children's book about a very annoying fly that bothered everybody. "He ate the crust on the apple pie...Bothered the Baby and made her cry... shoo fly...shoo fly...shoo...He coughed on the cookies with the chocolate bits... Drove the Dog nearly out of it's wits... shoo fly...shoo fly...shoo..." As I read that thread a real fly was buzzing by me and the story came back to me. Ironically it was entitled "Old Black Fly". Sort of fitted. Of course, had I known that every word I posted had to have literal interpretations and be assigned to a specific user, then this would not be an issue. Live and learn.
Since you didn't ask, and your post there made no sense to me, I ignored it.
Then I come here today and get blasted by HJW. Who now thinks, because you said so, that I was directing some post about maggots at her. Now I really don't care what she thinks, but I do care that my words were misconstrued by you and I am now being jumped on by her because of you.
I appreciate your apology and I accept it. Thank you.

Inside,
Enchanted has absolutely nothing to do with
my interpretation of your post. She
is one of the most courteous,
considerate and intelligent posters on the internet.
You however need to explain just what
you meant by your constant harassment with your irrelevant comments. Everybody here is waiting.
It's rotten behavior to try to shuffle
the blame for what you did to Enchanted.
bunnicula
"Perhaps that flies & their buzzing are everpresent & annoying? That is what I took Inside's posts to mean..."
Now just what in the hell do you mean by
this...It's clear what you are trying
to say in an oblique manner. Are you such
a coward that you can't just say what you
mean?
It's my opinion that if you can't say what
you really think, then you should just keep your mouth shut.
Helen

You are responsible for your words, inside, including the interpretation made of them. This attempt to blame enchanted for your usages is untoward and slimy.
I guess you mean in your clarification of sorts that in a thread about race your references to shoo fly of a black fly fit. That too is a sleazy reference, demeaning to anyone who is black.

God, Helen. I wish I could find a way to convince you that not everyone here is playing games...or is out to get you. No matter what you've been told.
I know you don't believe me, but they're not.

toke,
I don't need any advice from you.
I don't believe anybody is out to get me
but I refuse to be insulted.
I'm sure that you can understand that and
if it happened to you, I don't think that
you would take it lightly either.

I am now seeing the light, after reading other threads here in RT. No. It seems we CANT talk. Someone might be offended and complain and the ever present PTB will agree and kaput.
I am finally getting frustrated.

I have tried to totally ignore HJW, KRS and a few others who are favored with the ability to be as rude as they like to anyone they dislike.
I do not have to "prove" what I mean by what I say. This is a chat board and that is all. I have my opinions and my style of writing. If you don't like what I say, you are free to ignore me. I try to ignore some here, but they just have to keep getting in my face.

Hello Everyone,
History shows that threads like Can We Talk? only serve to make things worse and this one is no different.
Please make use of the ignore buttons and take any personal issues to email.
I'm locking this thread.
