For one very brief moment when looking at message view I thought, and yes, I was amazed for a split second, I thought Barry had written, "There's a compassionate way of seeing things..." but then he goes on to say: > but I see > them a little differently.

I just know Barry has a small notebook of catch phrases that he opens up and uses all the time. Here is such an example above beginning with the numbered points. How many times have we all seen these hackneyed, unsubstantiated, inane generalities thrown at people here? And of course they are categorized in his notebook under the chapter, "Overused Phrases/Definitions For The Cunts at FFL". > > The fact that Share CARES what any of these bitches > think of her makes her a perfect victim for their > assaults, and from her side SHE keeps restarting the > arguments and thus *making* herself the victim every > time it dies down, because that gets her attention. Note that Barry uses the occasional upper case word to get his (unsubstantiated and couch analysis) across.

Either a fascinated voyeur or the the fifth grade pimply-faced dork who just can't stay away from the bitchy clique? Or are you the mature poster who divvies out admonishments to Share (stay away, ignore them!) but who certainly can't follow his own advice? Mr I'm-so-bored-you-assholes-preacher man needs to take a better look at his own obsessions, methinks. Let's apply this little theory of mine to the advice Barry gives Share below. Let's imagine he is speaking to himself and not Share here (try it, this is fun). Hint, where Barry says Share insert his name and where he writes "she" insert "he": > > Share could stop it at any point by just *letting* the > cliquebitches have the last word and moving on to more > sane topics.

You know so much about computers and you did help Emily out (I was a little jealous, by the way). Bye Barry, it was fun. Maybe we can do this again sometime, in fact, I am positive we can and will. You just can't help yourself and neither can I. >
