Holy hell, beastie. Are you talking about the volunteer go screw yourself thread?
Yes. That is the thread where I told Josh to "get help", which, in his words, is the equivalent of calling him a "depressed, diabetic fool".
Josh now denies that my telling him to get help was the trigger for this whole episode. But he repeatedly made clear it was.
Now I'm getting pissed and aggravated. This is what you stated about the screw yourself thread:
You are incorrect in your chronology. Scratch posted about FAIR rejecting Josh long before Josh ever arrived on this board.
For the love of Mike, beastie! Look at THE DATE of Scratch's OP and then look at THE DATE of josh's first post.
Look at those and tell me again if you think that Scratch posted about FAIR rejecting Josh long before Josh ever arrived on this board.
Did I miss something or did you? Go ahead and look, beastie. Take five seconds of your time to search what I just suggested.
You did miss something. You were confused due to the fact that I wrote that OP almost exactly one year ago. That thread was posted in 2006, Jersey, so you may want to re-think what you've been saying to beastie, and indeed you may want to rethink your entire evaluation of this whole thing.

Holy hell, you're right! I might want to rethink my "entire evaluation of this whole thing" but let me tell you something buddy, I'll never rethink my evaluation of you. You're a pathological dirt digger extraordinare. Enjoy the personal attack fest!
I'm not sure anyone disbelieved you before you dug up those posts.
You may be right, but due to the spin Josh was putting on my statement, I felt it was important to provide the background context of my statement.
In retrospect, I should have remembered enough about Josh's personality to realize how badly this would go down. But at the moment, I was just reacting to his red flag statements, which coincided with the statements he's made repeatedly in the past. Next time, I will just avert my eyes and look the other way.
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

What am I guilty of Josh? What is Jersey Girl/LSD guilty of?
*Sigh*.. Ok....... I give up... Not fun when everyone takes things out of context..
I apparently misunderstood you then. It seems that you meant "everyone" in a figurative way. My bad.
If I'm not mistaken, you probably think I am guilty of taking things out of context. That may be so, but I assure you I was not doing so intentionally. I simply wanted clarity in the hopes that perhaps I could reflect better on the situation from another perspective. There are things I can be blind to.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy. eritis sicut dii I support NCMO

He resurrected it when Josh arrived. Obviously, he was interested in his comments.
Like I said, in my opinion, you're allowing your personal dislike of scratch to color your perception of what happened here.
But I'm not pissed and aggravated about it. ;)
He resurrected it when Josh arrived? Hmmm... I might have to reassess. My personal dislike of Scratch is based on current history, beastie, not something he/she might have said or disclosed 5 years ago in the past. The mob scene here was totally disgusting.
And now I'm done with it.
Feel free to continue hammering away at Josh throughout the day, into the night and the middle of next week if you feel the need. I won't participate in this further.

Could you stop pretending you know me, you don't. Until you meet me face to face, you don't know me. And quit with the "red flag" psychobabble. I hate to tell you, but a lot of folks here, including YOU are throwing up some massive red flags. Obsession is dangerous, and when someone is so obsessed they keep dragging up old dirt to make their point in stinky desperation, that links to many clues on someone's mental state.

Everyone is perhaps something I overuse. As you can see, Beastie is exploiting it to the extreme. That one statement has lead her to ALL SORTS of conclusions on my mental health. Look at that other armchair psychologist in the other thread. He saw my video and it confirmed a lot about me. TO think, usually it requires so much more. These people are pioneers in the field of mental health.
Like I am lonely. I have a very large and extended family. I have lots of friends.. I am part of many clubs and organizations. I do play Dungeons and Dragons a lot... Do D&D people all get lonely?
Matter of a fact, sometimes I was to BE alone for a few hours. But hey, these powerful pioneers in armchair psychology have figured me out.

My mistake is giving in to the desire to defend myself against Josh's accusations, ie, that I was simply attacking him (calling him a depressed, diabetic fool, in his own words). I should simply shrug and walk away. My attempts to defend myself by providing context have been interpreted by Josh - and you - as hammering attacks.
In addition, I'm iced in this weekend without my boyfriend so I have too much time on my hands.
