This is my olive branch.
Edited on Wed Jun-04-08 10:45 PM by izzybeans
I'll pick this one back up, as it was broken off during the heat of the Primary battle...because it was sincere and because I think it is emblematic of the tu quoque (or tit-for-tat) that defined this primary season.

I urge that you, in your self-reflection, discover the reality of your granfalloon and return to your true Karass.

In short, overcome our differences of identity and unite on our shared goals, values, etc. We have a lot vested in our separate and diverse identities, but that investment alienates us from each other and the things we share. Or even shorter, Kurt Vonnegut was a wise man.

5. I spend most of my time here making jokes.
Edited on Wed Jun-04-08 10:52 PM by izzybeans
Every time I try to say something serious, it ends up dropping like a stone.

If you or I have ever met in flames, I truly apologize.

And if you saw one of my jokes that were most likely in poor taste, even tonight (because I've been drinking) I apologize as well.
