    Murph’s Baclofen (or should that be BacloFUN) diary

    As to the general threads...
    Yes, I agree. It's a nicer place to be. I'd live there too if I didn't feel like it was a matter of life and death (literally sometimes) to reach out here.
    I still resent that rather than attempting to participate and share and support, some people choose to spend their time away from here and simply hang out catching up on the day's news in general. And if it's because of me, I will feel worse.
    But if it's because they choose to abstain, and many choose to moderate, they are shorting a lot of people...

    Gotta go.

      Ne, you are not the only person who makes it uncomfortable for people to post, not at all. In fact, many people respond to you extremely well, and love you to pieces, which is a testimony to the amount of effort and time you put into these boards.

      I'm pretty bummed out to hear that DG didn't find me by herself but was "rescuing" me at your behest. Thank you for her, she's a gem, but its depressing all the same.

        I swear it is a testament to my own weakness and lack of character that I cannot let this go.

        Bruun, isn't that a lot like gossiping behind someone's back? Alluding to PMs that are about a woman who makes people afraid to post? That's rather hurtful. It's rather mean, too.

        And now, if there is any backbone in me, I am going to take a break and figure out why the fuck this bothers me so damn much.

            Actually, the times it occurred, the intention was for support so no, I don't feel like it was meant to be gossipy.

            And I never meant to hurt anyone, that was not my intention here either. My intention was to say that meds is not comfortable and open for posting and I needed to back that up because I obviously feel okay about posting and felt proof was necessary.

            Edit: I'm really sorry you were hurt, Ne, didn't mean to point at any single person. Edit: I also don't want to contribute negativity to meds or this thread ... AND I don't always feel comfortable posting due to what happens after. Only in meds, to Zen's point.

              What, what, what....

              Murph, no way would I be here without you..I have to read now. Guys, spell 'what' that many times in a row and it makes me feel uneducated!

              What?

                You're absolutely right Bruun, I'll make sure I tone it down in future.

                So, have the angry, men-hating, closet lesbians left yet? Hopefully they're getting a good hard shag. They obviously need it. I'll check back later.

                    Because I might think that you were reacting to a comment on a different thread. One that labels my friend, a man I know to be both gentle and very caring, as (I have a hard time writing this) abusive. Because he told someone that they should 'get a grip.' Or something to that fact. And I, in fact, concur. That getting a grip, or whatever, is very much called for around here.
                    Because my take on that is that if the person responding to that comment was a man, let's say for just a moment, and got pissed off about it, they might say something like, "Say, bugger off wanker." But if it is, as it is in this case, a woman responding, and she starts using words like abusive, I would have to think that the woman in question has NO idea what that term means. Or perhaps there was something else I misunderstood.
                    I did actually take this, my confusion and my concerns, off of the forum. Because I want to tread very carefully. We are all very fragile. And this is beginning to feel an awful lot like a...witch hunt with an unruly mob.

                    So, on the assumption that one would never gloat, or taunt, or make light of such a situation, I'm just going to return to studying. And I'm sure that I will be embarrassed, maybe even mortified, about the assumptions I've made about that simple little sentence.

                    Where are those chicks from the General Discussion area? Maybe they'll just stay a while. It would be really, really nice to laugh instead of groan. Or moan. Or foam at the mouth. When I visit beloved MWO. Ya' know?

                    Alright, folks. I hear you Bruun. Despite my best intentions. Despite the fact that I am not a bully. Despite the fact that I would really, really love constructive criticism, have openly asked for it and responded with due diligence when I felt that I was wrong or hurt someone's feelings.
                    I am not, when it all boils down to it, only-bac all the time. In point of fact I asked Doggygirl, lo those many months ago, to step in and visit you when you found you were unable to take bac. I knew I couldn't help, as it was the last ditch for me. And you and I had already had a "discussion" about it that only made it worse...

                    If someone had a problem with something Murphy said the honorable and decent thing to do would have been to take it offline. Every single time I have "attacked" some one, I've started by trying to find understanding and common ground off line. And ftr, I make no apologies for calling bull shit when I see it. Whether it's Bill P or someone about to quit bac because they have a fucking cold. In spite of the fact that it is working for them.

                    Abrasive, maybe. Attacking and hurtful? Whatever.

                    I've got to be done here. It's painful. And expletive expletive infuriating. Bleep and beatle had the right of it.
                    Ok - I do not like drama, nor do I want to do this on this thread or offline. I will respond to this on another thread.

                      Just as well I'm not a lesbian... I'd REALLY have a problem with it then. I know of at least one person on the site that is... with any luck she won't find the post. (
                      Oh I'm sure you'll point it out to her.

                      Of course you're not a lesbian, lol. How could you be a lesbian? Men can't be lesbians.

                      Whoa! Hang on a minute, you're not saying you're a woman are you? Seriously? Oh God, I'm so sorry, I just assumed you were a bloke. You're by far the most aggressive person on the forum and always looking for a fight, so naturally I thought you were a man.

                      Have you always been a woman? Just askin'

                          Zenstyle, you really need to lighten up and stop trying to pick fights all the time. Geesh, life's too short.

                          BTW, I assume when you picked that screen name you were being ironic. :H

                            Interestingly enough the 'lesbian' line is one often used by men to women who have just spurned their advances. Followed closely thereafter by accusing them of being a man.

                            Because of course no straight, genuine female could possibly ever say "No" to them...........
