People have been telling me my whole life that I am standoffish. And I'll admit to being judgemental and a moralist. I never have figured out why using judgement was such a sin. I guess I didn't realize the extent to which I brought my personal defects in relationships to Dinah. So thank you for pointing it out to me so succinctly. And all along too. Not just that particular post. Oh well. I guess you lug yourself around with you wherever you go.
Remember however that as an overweight American from an area with a poor educational system but a lot of really decent people I was responding to the following statement.
"Duh. Most people ARE stupid. Why was "Rosanne" so popular? That's America. Fat, lazy, stupid."
I guess my sense of humor is grossly lacking. Sorry for that too. Sorry I take things at face value. Sorry I am too literal. Sorry I like America and Americans and don't see them all as fat lazy and stupid. Sorry I saw Roseanne as a family that may have been rather sarcastic at times (golly, what a sin) but also showed caring and commitment towards one another. And sorry I don't take constructive criticism particularly well. And sorry I appear prickly to you. And sorry you found my posts likely to push you away. And sorry this post seems a bit overwraught. And sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry.... for everything.
