> [@kidchameleon](#): > > More dye. **kidchameleon** , I have issued a warning for jerkishness, only because there’s nothing stronger I can hit you with. This is one of the nastiest posts I’ve seen in more than eight years at the Dope. **liberty3701** , wishing you peace and strength at this difficult time. ---

I’m so sorry, **liberty**. My mom just passed on Sept. 10th, and her birthday was Nov. 26th. It was a tough day to get through, but I managed. Just remember all the good stuff. That helps a lot. ---
