blathin: I'd pull in that neck of yours Deedee if I were you....
I saw you post that you had some sort of mental health problem so I'm being mindful of that and letting a lot of what you say go...but there is a limit .
Go back and reread that post, blathin.
You have a problem with your English comprehension there, but nice effort trying to stigmatise mental ill health.
jac_the_gripper: No, it's you who is making a mockery of GS losing her little dog by using her loss to try and point score against Merc. That's reprehensible.
Referring to an 80 year old woman's beloved pet as her baby is not.
^^^^ Classic twisting of facts to suits one's own argument.. seen you do that quite a few times now, deliberately misread just so you can make a point or argue black is blue with someone..
Undermining your own credibility there you know...
bodleing2: I'm sure all this will be most upsetting for GS, I'm also sure it would be proper and right to drop it now.
I obviously don't know her that well, and could be totally wrong here. But the little I did see of her I found her to be a smart woman who could see through most people's BS. So I can't imagine she'd be too bothered by this.... curious intrigued and amused maybe..but upset? I'm not so sure...guessing not.

Give it a rest Jac, you know fine well I have no problem with comprehension, or made any effort to stigmatise mental health. Both ridiculous claims on your part.
Once again you are twisting what was said to suit your own agenda..and it's getting tedious at this point.

Really...?
Having claimed to be viewiing posts from a linguistic and academic perspective, you call viewing things from a different perspective 'twisting facts'?
This is the second time you've tried to undermine my abilities, or 'credibility'. Why is that, blathin?
Why did you try to undermine Merc because she referred to GS's little dog in affectonate terms?
Why did you try and undermine deedee by claiming she had mental health issues?
Why is it women you try to undermine, while being as nice as pie to the fellas?
Try looking at it from a different perspective: what is your problem here?

The one where you think deedee said she had mental health issues.
And think about how you tried to undermine deedee on this thread using mental health issues as a weapon. That stigmatises mental ill health.
jac_the_gripper: Well, that's not an apology on your part, is it blathin?
That post of mine is NOT a tool for you to try and stoke the flames, so give it a rest!
It's also a dirty underhanded stunt to pull on someone you claim to be friends with as well becausee all you're going to do is wind her up again, not me. And if her last post is to be taken at face value then she's clearly in a bad way and making it worse is flat out wrong.
How would you like to be in those shoes and have some so called internet friends trying to stoke things up on you?? At least I have the back bone to put aside the crap and see the human being behind it.
Seems you might have a little problem there with comprehension too...Note the word "Lets"

No, I'm not trying to stoke the flames.
I just don't think it's appropriate to be post a long comment being mean to someone and then say 'let's aplogise to each other' like you're the great peacemaker.
I don't think you should have the opportunity to blame Merc for not replying to you again, whether that's because she's offline, or because you've been mean and then expected her to apologise.
Merc isn't in a bad way, don't try and make out she is. She's pissed off with lockdown and she's pissed off with you for spoiling the fun on here which is a bit of light relief for all of us who are isolating due to covid.
If you really want Merc's thread to go back to the fun it usually is, then respect her wishes and go away, at least until you work out that the fellas prefer it when we women get off on with each other.
I'm thinking I might move to Africa. The amount of interest I'm getting from some really gorgeous 30 to 40yr olds is unreal. Some of the women are nice as well ....

So what you're saying (see bold text above, assuming I've done it right) is that she was just throwing a tizzy fit tantrum because things werent going her way and being an attention seeking drama queen too ?
Should've known I did wonder alright, but was giving her the benefit of the doubt. Seems you're now telling me I was wrong...which is fair enough..Tizzy fit drama queen it is!
The rest of your post is just you trying to start another argument with me, You might want to stop that too Jac, you're getting predictable and it's getting reallllly boring at this stage too...
Why doesn't everyone listen to Merc, it's her thread after all.
Set up a "lets bicker and insult each other" thread if that's what keeps ye happy.
Merc comes on here to vent her own frustrations, to chill, to have a smile put on her face, and to meet some likeminded people.
Continuing this is disrespectful, not only to Merc, but to the rest of us who come here to chill with her.
None of us really knows the others. We are just internet stranger friends/enemies ..
That's my opinion for what it's worth. It doesn't require replies, either positive or negative. It's just something for you all to think about.
Maybe you missed the really nasty things she said to a couple of other members on here that were deeply personal and totally uncalled for?
Quite frankly, given the above, she doesn't deserve any respect. I was concerned about her yesterday but it seems (according to Jac) that concern was misplaced.
True, none of us do, and all the more reason why that kind of spite and nastiness shouldn't be tolerated..
