existing posts.
Besides making me laugh, it is a reminder that the things you say
about people will be preserved online.
Anyone searching message archives for "idiot" or "troll" (that would
be sort of sad too) will turn up this post. It won't actually have MY
name on it.
And you, Michael Adams, will remember your "(what a sad sense of
humour)" remark every time you see either "troll" or "idiot". I
expect there will come a day, with increasing maturity, when you'll
stop thinking it was a clever put-down.
No put-down intended, if denegrating yourself makes you laugh, then
fill-yer-boots-mon. I tend towards seeing it as self flagellation, and
find it hard to see it as mature, less so as i speed towards retirement
myself.
Until then, lighten up! Laugh at yourself; you can be sure other
people are.
Actually the way we have twisted this thread around reminds me of a Lou
Reed song "Growing up in public, with your pants down"
Well, if by denegrating you mean denigrating, I don't see it as that.
Perhaps you mean to say it's self-deprecating.
I'm sorry I misjudged your age. I guess it was the nature of your post.
