5555 Everyone gets the question... did you picture his robe open or closed...

A subtle but significant difference in visualization.

mine was a rant. it has all the hallmark elements.

Posted late at night, over 250 words. Emphatic punctuation. The classic rant call out "Shut the F Up", the possibility of beverage choices influencing the tone, and the sudden emergence of the OP in a group that's unaware he exits...

yeah it's a rant. but in a good way. 555

I am standing up for human decency. This is as much of a group issue as an individual on. And I don't care to get into one on ones with a bunch of people who have openly demonstrated their hostility and disdain to people asking for help.

a nice attempt at a couplet from a failed poet?

on one hand I agree. on the other you could say that every pereson's situation is unique to them... as it is a situation that belongs only to them.

it is a literary device used to create a mental image of the jackwagons I was referring to.

Thanks m8. Well said. I may hit you up to be my editor the next time I decide to fire off a Leo fueled late night rant.

You seem to be doing your best to pull the boys together and have a go at me. Take a number for a place in the que, there's gonna be a bit of a wait. 555

Best decision Ive made in my time here> Do not Read Thai Visa Forms unless as a last resort. Without that toxic noise in my head, I lost the bitterness and predictive situational stereotyping created by other people's experiences.

The urge to prejudge everyone is a scam artist, a liar or a cheat, was slowly replaced by my personal interactions.

Rude assholes bring out the rude asshole in people they meet... most problems could be resolved with a look in the mirror

@Todd ********

If you have a moment free, read my response to a similar comment as this early in the thread. By the nature of the dialog the only way I can respond is by keyboard. Or I suppose I could post a YT video rebuttal.

I think my message may have been a little blurred by a couple Leos I spilled earlier.

I am just saying, have some of value to add, or be quiet. No reason to dog pile on someone for asking a question. no matter how stupid the question
