But negative, discouraging feedback makes me || just want to say "screw it". Anyway, I'm gonna try and not feed || these || trolls. Thanks. Slight correction: It's not your thread...it's PD...when you post, anyone can reply as they see fit. You, OTOH, have complete freedom to ignore or not. You choose not to. Also, they are not trolls. |

You're too stupid to know what an attack is.

That must be the group for the Adkins diet ;-) It's beyond me how someone can come on this group with some very basic, didn't-do-my-homework questions -- which we all know a number of people have been patient enough to answer in a nice way for other new posters in the past -- and then cop an attitude when he doesn't get the answers he wants to hear. it doesn't surprise me at all. most people are ignorant and lazy. I'll guarantee you that I'm much more intelligent than you, bitch. is that why you have to resort to name-calling? Nope, I just don't react well to being attacked by a bunch of strangers for no real reason. |
