Yes, I saw you quoted it before in the very long post.
What I was trying to say was that you suddenly (apparently) casting Pat as the cat (not even sure if that was correct) and then mentioning the cat needing help to get out of the tree did *not* translate into - "I see potential/actual uncivil words here......" etc. Not even close. You had just said the cat remained civil....so I wasn't even thinking about civility anymore, and didn't know what you were even talking about.
I still find this sort of thing unecessarily winding and requiring too much concentration to follow.
I'm too dense to understand this style, or the need for it, I guess.
I won't ask any more questions, but I do wonder if Fayeroe understands she is the "cat" that might need to do something...
(I actually can't believe I just wrote that sentence)
I mean, I have been acquainted with you around the topic of civil or uncivil posts for a long time, and I was baffled.
