Wow, Mom, Wow.
Cubs, is it true the squeaky wheel always gets the grease? And if someone, anyone, disagrees with you on any topic, do you always make certain they know you do NOT LIKE THEM! and they IRRITATE YOU! and are ON YOUR LIST! Do you toss your Cheerios on the floor, too, and then stomp on them until someone responds to your tantrums and cleans up your messes? I'm an Aunt, and that doesn't even work with me when my two-year-old nephew tries it. And he's still cute!
Flopsy is certainly not a "snippy Brit" and who are you to judge? I LIKE Flopsy quite a bit, but I don't LIKE you insulting her. Do you kind of see how this works? It's not all about you, all the time. You just think it is, and for the life of me, I cannot figure out why.
I've seen you flatout threaten people in here for not agreeing with you. I realize the worst you could do is "type them to death," but still, it's rude, crude and socially unacceptable to threaten people, on or offline. I have no clue how or why you continue to get away with it. You baffle me. And I'm certain you do NOT LIKE ME! and oddly, I'm okay with that. What would it say about me if you actually liked me? You're entertaining in an odd sort of way, but my feelings are ambivalent.
I think we all understand your undying love for RJ, and since he's played on just about all our teams in the last year or so, we all know and love him, too. But he has to be the yin to your yang. While you are close to, if not fully hyperventilating, trust me, he's out in the stock tank, smoking a cigar and drinking a beer. Or maybe some Cuervo. I'm all for throwing a bucket of cold water on you, but probably for different reasons. But hey, anything that will get you breathing in AND out again, and maybe cause a wee bit of separation, and ease your separation anxiety.
Ever tried to herd cats? It doesn't work, and mine just love to tap dance across my laptop keyboard just as I load a timed quiz. Luckily, they generally are very fast and extremely accurate, never forgetting to hit submit, so it works out well for me.
I hope everyone can calm down again now that RJ has returned, especially Cubs. Geaux Big Red! Geaux Cowbeaus! Geaux whatever team you are now playing on! Upward and Onward! Let's all have a big, fat, fun year in Trivia! And Kyle? I am being nice, I swear I am! I'm always nice, dang it. Ask anyone.
