I’m sorry to have offended you. That was not my intention.

You seem to have this same apology for several people.
Maybe you should look deeply at yourself, and why you find yourself caught in this pattern.

At some point, people have to take responsibility for their response to being offended. The world has no obligation to construct its opinions to expressly avoid offending you or me or your sidekick PChikn. Mature adults accept apologies graciously and move on. Others continue to play the martyr and be passive-aggressive. It remains to see what you choose to do. I’m hopeful for you.

Yeah, beautiful redirect.

Heads up, I don't have a side kick.

I do, however, kind of follow along with folks that don't seem to be complete assholes to others. I take no responsibility for you falling into that other group. Ultimately, that would be your cross to bear.

A lack of empathy seems to make you...in some really fucked up way...feel superior.

I assume, as you take your last breath...and the stench of regret comes over you....you will most likely wish you had been less of a D-Bag all this time.

Of course, with your head up your own ass, you may never even sense it's presence.

He's been an asshole for the 12 years that I have run across him.

You know, there was a time in my life when I did feel pretty superior to others. That got beat out of me over the last decade - most of it well-deserved. I can honestly say that I don't feel superior to anyone, but I am committed to doing what I can to make sure that I don't get screwed over moving forward. If that looks like superiority to you, there's not much I can do about it.

What I do know is that I am not the one cursing at others on the bored. I am not the one calling names. I am not the one being overtly hateful, nor am I the one wishing bad things on others here. I state my opinion, period, and that is consistently in the face of wave after wave of all of the above from you and your posse.

I'm not here to fight or fling poo. I'm sorry you feel the need to be that person right now.

Just another unbelievable story of how the Trump Administration has little interest in the well-being of Americans. But, "Dowdy....."

In the early days of the pandemic, the U.S. government turned down an offer to manufacture millions of N95 masks in America

It was Jan. 22, a day after the first case of covid-19 was detected in the United States, and orders were pouring into Michael Bowen’s company outside Fort Worth, some from as far away as Hong Kong.

Bowen’s medical supply company, Prestige Ameritech, could ramp up production to make an additional 1.7 million N95 masks a week. He viewed the shrinking domestic production of medical masks as a national security issue, though, and he wanted to give the federal government first dibs.

“We still have four like-new N95 manufacturing lines,” Bowen wrote that day in an email to top administrators in the Department of Health and Human Services. “Reactivating these machines would be very difficult and very expensive but could be achieved in a dire situation.”

But communications over several days with senior agency officials — including Robert Kad­lec, the assistant secretary for preparedness and emergency response — left Bowen with the clear impression that there was little immediate interest in his offer.

An unbelievable story. It's almost as if the administration was acting incompetently, with intent. I thought about posting it yesterday, but couldn't imagine trying to decide how to pare the article down.

As I often do, I decided to see what our President felt the need to start his day off on Twitter tweeting about.

Yep, didn't disappoint. My apology - for those who get upset by people posting tweets on here.

I am confident that he is clueless to the exact same meme possiblity with Fox news and his clan of shitheads.

It’s a decent point he makes. Granted, it’s not at the top of your priority list, but it is undoubtedly shaping the news that goes out every day. Whether that’s good or bad is dependent on your political leanings, I suppose.

Who wants to alert Psych about the relationship between Clarence Thomas, his wife and all sorts of unsavory businesses?

So, "shaping news" is more egregious to you than rigged Justice/jurisprudence?

"Heads up, I don't have a side kick."

Color me bummed out. When exactly were you going to tell me you were thinking about a solo career?

Two sides of the same coin.

You’ve been a sidekick as long as I’ve known you. Kelly Fenton, Copperhead, and now Plano. I’m guessing that’s been a pattern for you since about middle school. You don’t have the ego strength to manage a solo career. Few people do.

I know Mrs. Thomas has been a conservative activist, starting various coalitions and working for Heritage.

But what "unsavory businesses" is she affiliated with?

Being Conservative. Duh.
