Empathy, Compassion, and "Walking in Another's Shoes" on A2K

You don't seem very sneaky, Snood...

Somehow we believe you, snood.

Snood is military and I work for the federal government. Both of us would have noticed illegal activities by now. I can't believe TTH is talking like this.

Hi everybody! I just found this thread and read through the entire thing. I'm not here out of pure curiosity and nosiness but to understand better what is going on. When I first posted here about a very sensitive matter that I am highly ashamed of, I posted because I was in fact too ashamed to talk to people that I know on a personal level. Some of the initial responses I felt were slams and it took me a while to get to know some of your personalities. Now I'm aware of who is just being humorous by making smart alecky remarks. I have also learned that this is somewhere that I can come to obtain some very valuable advice from people that I have respected opinions of.
I too am trying to figure out what happened and if it was from a thread I have been involved with. At first I thought it was about a first timer but it is becoming evident that it is not.
It was also painful to read the back and forths from someone trying to get in the last word. I can go upstairs and get that from my kids, thank you very much.

Jane, quit sending me private messages.

Well, I dunno if my particular mode of employment would make me more sensitive to signs of being surveiled or not, but I definitely smell a huge horseshyt pie re: this TTH thing.

But some of us talk in code, so the people who are not involved will never know!

Yeah, like "mah-jongg"! <broad wink>

sozobe, you're funny.

Marty, this thread took a big turn, or dive, if you will.

Most of it was about a member being hurt by comments on a personal thread, and then, another person took it to be all about her, and that worked with her river of diatribe against a third member, not all so old, but respected.

Consider the book, and then the movie...

Presently, we're dallying with absurdity.

What? You didn't object to the first 10 naughty messages,
and now that I am talking committment, you're dissing me.
You, you....swamp macho!

ok, you can still send them, but add some steam, will ya?

Who would make a better underground snitch than I?


And all these years you never noticed.....




Just a harmwess bunny wabbit, that's what you all thought....


HA!

Bunny Bond, I knew it!

No, not necessarily. Didn't you know that there has been alien life forms with us on this planet since the '50s?

Reyn- Is your new avatar a secret signal?

Hmm, bet when you have a bag of chips, you can't stop until you get the last one. :wink:

Everybody keeps telling me they're seeing double?

[scratches head]

I only see one.......

Oy, I leave to watch a movie and come back to a better show than the one I was watching ~~ shoulda stayed here to begin with.

Who's got the popcorn?
