I hate to do this. I _really_ hate to do this. However, it seems I owe **Diogenes the Cynic** an apology. Blech. I have been a jerk to him. This is partly because I feel he insulted the 80+% of the world population which I fall within, but that does not excuse my behavior. Actually, I am not a jerk. I am a dick. Partly this is because I am under quite a lot of stress now, which no one on the dope would or should care about. This also does not excuse my actions in any way, shape, or form. Therefore, **Diogenes the Cynic** , will you accept my apologies? ---

Um…is the “embarrassing” part the fact that **Diogenes** didn’t even post in that thread? I mean, you behaved rather impolitely to **SentientMeat** , but not **Diogenes**. Daniel ---

Hi, **smiling bandit**. As much as I would like to graciously accept your apology I think I am forced to return it unopened. I believe you sent it to the wrong address. As far as I know, you have nothing to apologize to me for. Are you sure you didn’t confuse me with **SentientMeat**? ---

That’s… that’s… actually a very good point. :o OK, just pretend that refers to **SentientMeat**. I’m just going to slink off into the shadows and pretend I was never born, now. ---

It’s ok. Confusing the two is a common mistake. After all, their names share…what, 4 letters? 😃 ---

The suck with Nutrasweet has a surprisingly nice taste however. Remember when they had suck with lemon? Gave it a nice tangy taste. I wish they’d bring it back. ---

Ok…I’m confused. What’s the difference between Suck, New Suck, Classic Suck, Suck One, and Tab? ---

The diet suck is OK if you put a lot of whiskey in it. Man could I use a super-sized suck right now! ---
