I think her “ignorance” and huge habit of ignoring downright facts and cites is an act. I also think part of her “act” is to always (and this has always been the case so far) have the last reply/say in a thread. Because she never stops. Never. How this can’t be an act, I don’t know.

Another thing some of you all do that just makes you look dumb. I believe that I have had the “last word” in one thread, tho I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if it was two. Considering that I am subscribed to over 150 threads, and almost all of them I posted to, it is obviously not true that I “always have the last reply/say”.

As for “only here to get attention”, well it is the Pit, but since I post in other forums here, and it is only when I say something about children and/or healthcare that you all think is wrong that threads go on and on, I’d say that it is you all looking for attention. The kind that makes you feel that you have vanquished a dragon or something. Pretty silly - God forbid that someone not agree with you.

Now, if you have some burning need to have that precious last word, you just let me know and I won’t respond. Or, get boring and I won’t respond. Your choice! 😃  
For **Fear Itself** - :rolleyes:

What’s the matter, cat gotcher tongue?

There are people with _actual shit_ for brains that listen to **curlcoat** and say, “Whew! Thank Jebus I’m not as fucking stupid as that gibbering bag of hammers.”

No, just bored with your dancing around.

Sorry…but don’t you live by sucking taxpayers cash out of the government’s tit?
