Beardy,
I think your post to Shar was a bid heavy-handed. She doesn't like the expression, "pity party", but I didn't get any sense that she was trying to make anyone who had previously used the expression feel bad, guilty, or otherwise, as she added her good wishes.
I think this is one of those occasions where the spirit and tone of the post mean more than the specific words used. I believe you misread the spirit.And, while Shar's judgment was against the expression, your judgment appears to be directly pointed at Shar. Just maybe a little too personal, and and not warranted from Shar's post, of course, imo.
That said, I'm wishing everyone, including you, Shar and all babblers, a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow.
