Well. Evidently a certain post of mine made well over a week ago has been making the rounds, like a mailman bringing chain letters and tuition bills.
...Forgive me, Godot, my metaphor-fu is off today.
Of course, I was only aware of this when some kind anonymous soul linked somebody's rather upset journal entry in a comment to my last entry. I won't link it here - y'all can go dig it up if you're curious.
(And really, Anonymous, I don't killunless I have the time and patience to hide the body, which I don't. There's no need to log out of your own journal.)
My response is threefold:
ONE: I don't lock stuff unless it's An Issue. Those of you who've seen my locked posts know what kind of Issue I'm talking about. I generally leave stuff unlocked because I see no reason why I should hide my opinion. People don't like it? Bring it up with me.
TWO: To the person who made the upset post: Although it was not my word, I apologize for "fucktard" and for the context in which it was used. Some things should just not be riffed, and I realize both the person who made the original comment with that word and my reaction of it went too far. I apologize.
THREE: Finally, a few matters need to be cleared up, I think. No, I am not still following Econtra. As I mentioned in my post, I found an entry on
dear_mun, my curiousity was piqued, and it went from there. I made that post because I'm a natural sporker and the whole plot was just too damn funny to pass up. No, I'm not angry at anybody. There are a couple of people I wouldn't mind settling a few things with (via a calm, collected chat), but the person who posted the upset journal entry isn't one of them.
So! I'm all done cleaning up the results of the shitslinging. Let me know if I missed a spot.
