We can't afford to lose you. Glad you're sticking around. And yes. By all means take advantage of the Ignore button! That way you have some sense of control over various annoyances or meanness that may pop up.

And keep us posted. Let us know how you are, and how you're doing. DU will buoy you up.

WOW! Generally people who write 'goodbye cruel DU' posts end of staying. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #8

It's pretty predictable that HappyMe Feb 2015 #13

Such is DU culture wyldwolf Feb 2015 #17

No, I don't believe I have to. HappyMe Feb 2015 #22

Actually your only recourse would be to use the 'ignore' function wyldwolf Feb 2015 #25

And yet, you seem to be unable HappyMe Feb 2015 #31

I'm not complaining. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #33

Poor you. HappyMe Feb 2015 #45

A great self-assessment you just did. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #51

So you can post anything on DU you'd like to post Tsiyu Feb 2015 #105

typical wyldwolf Feb 2015 #111

Now you are the victim here? Tsiyu Feb 2015 #115

nope. I don't have that complex like you and others do. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #120

perhaps the snark is a cover guillaumeb Feb 2015 #59

Wish I'd read this first...very insightful Tsiyu Feb 2015 #108

Perhaps the armchair psychiatry you're known for got old the first time you used it. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #112

am I known for armchair psychiatry... guillaumeb Feb 2015 #146

Yes. You should charge a nickel for it. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #147

I knew you would use that rationalization for your comment. If she was picked on rhett o rick Feb 2015 #18

Ah, another example of your psychic ability. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #20

Actually no. It's very predictable for certain people to rationalize that the victim rhett o rick Feb 2015 #90

Maybe so but I never commented wyldwolf Feb 2015 #92

Almost as inevitable as the petulant snark coming from half-wits and others... LanternWaste Feb 2015 #24

Which is almost as inevitable as the over-dramatic poutrage wyldwolf Feb 2015 #29

You can just as easily leave the thread. HappyMe Feb 2015 #34

I'll stay and argue with you. wyldwolf Feb 2015 #38

---- HappyMe Feb 2015 #49
