I need no applause...it is quite obvious in the thread's "Title" and content.

I think it is cool that our younger forum members have a place to rant.
Much healthier than holding their anger in.

Someday, when they all grow up and (perhaps) feel sorry for some of the things they say there and want to apologize, it will be too late because some of their targets will be dead and/or gone, myself included. At least this way they know ahead of time that they have my blessings.
Heaven knows how bad I felt for treating older people badly when I was a child...with the help of schoolmates, we caused nervous breakdowns and influenced teachers into going back some grades, transferring to other schools, or quitting altogether. I can't make the apologies I would have liked to once I grew up and realized how wrong I was. I never had these people's blessings to speak ill of them or to them either. But I did learn forgiveness...toward others and myself.

I am not offended at the fact that other people have opinions that do not match my own, to be so would be too childish. (You know I can respect others opinions, but statements made as fact should be just that).

I will, however, address any insults made to my ingegrity here and I promise, Ziroc, that from here on out, I will try to maintain a written composure that reflects my sweet demeanor LOL...people always get the impression that I am far more upset than I am.
But, like I said, I won't post there...a site for hatred does not serve my purpose. I deal with anger when it hits me, in a more direct manner, and then I get over it.

My apologies to anyone who feels the need to walk on eggshells with me, it is certainly not the case...I am just blunt...been that way all my life and it never has served me well with people who need a "gentler" approach to things, but even in my "old" age, I am learning...I credit this board and its good members with that.
