You're beyond bored. You're comatose. What business is it of yours how many posts anyone makes? Are you the Post Police, now, too?
Some of us are well-educated, well-travelled, read at least one book a day in another language, and write several at once. There's a clue in there: the word write, as in WRITER. One of the things writers do is write. Amazing, isn't it? |
And some of us like to toot our own horns, like Moonie.... |

distiller,
I wouldn't say that moonraven's response to the following subtle-but-snide comment could be called "unprovoked".

| It's unprovoked in the sense of her responding with such vile to what was in my mind a good natured ribbing at the self-congratulatory nature of many of her posts. |

Do you mean bile? That's a noun; vile isn't. |

I'll consult with my evil handlers to see if I'm allowed to grant you a dispensation just this once...

I resent that. It wasn't snide. I consider moonraven a online pal--I might even say confidant. No vitriol here, mates. |
