Shadow has a question.

Howdy Gang!
I have a small question to ask of you all.
I was sitting here wondering why you are all becoming so upset over that Troglodite? (He is not a Troll yet Vader Darling, I am pretty sure his stones have not dropped).
A very good friend once told me that YOU are NOT responsible for ANY one else's happiness. That NO one else can make you feel the feelings that you feel. (Yes, I admit that I have to remind myself about this statement of wisdom on occasion as well).
Why are you allowing some tweenager to dictate whether you leave the board or whether they can stay?
The answer seems quite simple to me. Don't read any posts by said Troglodite. Honest, it is THAT simple. If this "Maynardworshipingbadbassplayingskunkweedsmoking" Troglodite upsets you so.............back away from his threads.
I admit, I have read them, as well as others, and allowed the words to tell me I was upset, then I sat back and thought. ..Nah.....they are bored and have no friends or life and this is how this person gets attention. Like a child tossing a hissy in Toys R Us, I pointed, laughed and went about my shopping experiance.
Honestly, We have gone through this before, and because the Internet does not have a "Stupid Person's" detector, we will continue to go through it. Don't read the posts, but if you do.......DO NOT allow someone else to make you feel from their words. Words are words, cant hurt ya, unless ya include sticks and stones with them, thrown at ya at about 35 miles an hour, then they does.
I do care for most of my KnoxGothic family, and I can understand why some of you are reacting to the Troglodite's words, but consider this....If the "target" of these words are attempting to educate and have patience..........shouldn't you?
Don't let the Troglodite get to ya...........a flick on the nose usually works. That and a Camel Light and a bottle of Wine.........then ya will understand true apathy.
Can ya dig it?
