Aw, look, I was hoping you'd put your foot in your mouth again sometime when I am under fire, to take the heat off... now what will I do? Cuz truth is, I get as much grief for positivity as you did for negativity! I was hoping we could sorta switch off when a break is in order!

And hey. How else do we gain gray hairs and credibility as old farts if we don't make mistakes along the way? Your boo-boo can be someone else's friendly helping hand, later on, from what you learned. If you buggger off now, you won't be able to earn any more gray hairs here! And you may find later you need them.

Also I HIGHLY recommend you read all the old threads on embarrassment, faux pas, etc.-- then you will realize that you simply did, here, a fraction of the harm some(most) of us have owned up to doing in the 3D arena!

Finally, saying you just wanted to join the fam-- look out. Talk like that and you may be nominated for a big old group snog, and then you'll be stuck with this lot for good. These Catters don't give up easily!
