I thought what you said about offending others not being 'silly' was gratuitous.
And yes, it *really* was hurtful I'm not getting on a soapbox.
It was hurtful Because I try not to offend,and I think the fact that I don't think offending others is silly should be quite apparent.
I don't know why you felt you had to point that out to me
after I had already said,
'Its okay, I'll just use stubborn its not that big a deal"And somehow it seemed okay to make me feel very put down, to somehow defend others who may be offended by the term that is *not* donkey.
Reactionary? perhaps. But I think I'm probably not so different from any other babbler in that I'm on disability, my prescriptions were not filled properly again! I'm out of food, and have now had macaroni for 3 meals 3 days in a row.
A pipe in my apt exploded, but I need not bother the manager cause its a welfare apt, and nobody cares that my apartment smells like a sewer.
I'm dealing with a mental illness and shoddy medical treatment as best I can while trying to stay somewhat positive.And I tune in to find myself being nitpicked for using the term *ss instead of donkey after I've already voluntarily said I won't do it AGAIN!!
I'm afraid it just brought out the devil in me
