Broke up with my GF not long ago - and I'm not in my normal place.
Besides, I get sick of the suffering going around - and sometimes it seems I talk to people all day long who contribute to it, with or without intent. I even contribute myself.
I wasn't fishing for an apology and you know I didn't take it personal. No worries. Hang tough. I leave you with the infinite wisdom of the only liberal we allowed in my college class (one of my best friends back then, and to this day I still say "kwatta" instead of "quarter" because of his bad influence):
"Oh for the days when men were men, and women were chattel."
