All that, when a simple (sincere) "I'm sorry" would have thwarted this whole drama at the beginning. | thrifthtml

I have said at least five times that I regret what I said in qualification. But you either haven't accepted my remorse, or haven't seen that I said that. Quite frankly, I don't give a damn about BrianW because it wasn't any of his business to begin with. I feel like you two pushed this way out of proportion, all I did was say you aren't very smart. People name call every day, it's a part of life that you just have to accept and move on with. I've wasted too much time and energy caring about what you're doing so I'm just going to leave. | jkiehart

You may regret what you said, but that is not an apology. Perhaps you're not sorry, and that's your right. It would be swell if you could say, "I'm sorry I called you brainless (or whatever it was you said, I don't remember verbatim)" but, whatever.
Because I'm not brainless. And I'm at a sensitive time in my life right now where I'm doubting my skills and abilities (sudden unemployment does that to a girl), and being called brainless (again, don't remember, blah blah blah) isn't helping me much. 99.999% of my fellow SC users are rooting for me, are encouraging to me... and then you have to come along.
I'm 29 years old, I won't stand for a young boy name-calling me. I will defend my intelligence tooth and nail.
Look, even I don't want you to go away. The more, the merrier; it really does take all kinds. But in order to feel comfortable here, you're going to have to be able to take constructive critcism and jokes. I recall in my last message to you in the infamous "Marijuana" survey, I made a joke: "Don't question me... ever." (ooohhhh... scary) was followed by me asking "Why." Jokes. Lighten up. I had also wished you a Happy Independence Day. That's a nice thing, see? "Have a good holiday!"
You keep asking me to let this go. I'm trying, but it's very hard for me when you're the one who needs to take the first step, and you're not. This is not Bill's problem, and I feel bad for him for having to run a daycare center rather than a User Community. Stop pestering him. I can't "let this go" if you're going to beat it to death. Look at all these posts you've written about little old me. I'm only responding. You're antogonizing.
I, Justina Kiehart, do solemly swear to judge each and every one of your surveys based on its merit, and not by its creator. | thrifthtml

If you had told me right after I had insulted you that you were having a hard time with life outside of SC then I would have apologized. But, unfortunately I don't feel the need to apologize after you've done so much to hurt my SC 'career'. Sorry  | jkiehart

STOP IT! JUST STOP IT ALREADY! | juliw

I feel the need to get in on this. The survey creator said something like "this guy jkiehart is brainless". Because I considered that an unkind remark with no element of truth, I said that jkiehart is not a guy, nor is she brainless. I also said the survey creator had somewhat of an attitude problem. The survey creator replied to me that I was allowing my "hatred" for him/her influence my vote. I never stated that I hated him. In the first place, I don't hate anyone at SC or elsewhere, because hatred is not a part of my nature. He went on to make a very crude remark (jkiehart is not the smartest peanut in the turd, to be exact). I just voted for the survey as I normally would have, and replied that I do not hate anyone. Brian W expressed his opinions, too, which he had every right to do. Now, there is this big deal. First of all, I wonder about someone who decides in advance that I hate him, and that all his bad votes are coming from two people in particular. This has gotten way out of hand, and I apologize if I stirred something up. I was just trying to stand up for jkiehart. I can tell by some of her comments in other surveys that she has been going through a difficult time right now, and I felt the unkind comments might be hurtful. Sorry this is so long. Thank you.

Like i said before, I would have apologized if jkiehart had told me she was having a rough time with other things. But instead she just kept quite and then started getting angry like 3 days after I had insulted her. | jkiehart

Not surprised you have no concept of time. You're nuts. | msgman

Nobody can "hurt" your SC "career", because SC isn't a career, it's just for fun.
There are other people here who started out with a bunch of bad surveys that got slammed, and then got into a fight over it. But they've come through it - if I remember correctly, one of the earlier "bad boys" managed to top the rankings for a while, after dealing with the problem.
You, too, can become a valued member of SC if you're prepared to put some effort into it. But it will have to be your effort - you can't expect everyone else to change just to accomodate you. | thrifthtml

Um....this probably isn't any of my business, but thrifthtml, for your own good, I'd just like to comment that the fact that jkiehart is having a rough time should make you apologize. I think after a nasty, uninformed comment was made to her intelligence, it deserves an apology no matter who the person is or how they are feeling, not that the nasty, uninformed comment should have been made anyway, but it's too late for that. Her situation now should not change that you should apologize. I think you should apologize whether a person is having good luck or bad luck. | thrifthtml

i already apologized like two days ago. get with the times jemmy  | Frostbrand

In addition to putting down jkiehart, he's also verbally attacked me. I suggest you go the AdvStats of thrifthtml's marijuana survey. | thrifthtml

Would you drop it already? I've made up with jkiehart and things are good now, so please just leave it alone. It wasn't any of your business to begin with either. | Frostbrand

When someone I like is being unfairly assaulted verbally for a stupid reason I MAKE IT my business! I would've been a lot harsher on you if you'd done it to bill or Twistermime. | thrifthtml

I'm glad that you stick up for your friends. But it didn't make it any better for jkiehart when you acted the way you did. She's a big girl and I'm sure she can handle her own issues. | Frostbrand
| | #17 posted July 7, 2001 at 10:49pm (EDT) |
I'm sure she can too, but it's not in my nature to just sit there. never has been, never will be. And I wish you could just accept that. No one else seems to have a problem with it. | thrifthtml
