Yeah, but once she finishes her jog, she’s supposed to iron my socks.

**cuauhtemoc** , 'tis fine. Just a misunderstanding on my part.  
Oh, and hi **Osip**!  
**Green Bean** , first of all, thank you for thanking me, and second, I am childishly amused by AE and I have no idea why. It’s just funny. 😃

Oops. :o I meant to erase that last comment from my Notepad draft of the post. I sincerely apologize to **Green Bean** … I meant to cast no aspersions on your character.

Cool someone linked to one my threads, I feel so popular 🆒

Incidentally I couldn’t think of a title for my thread, I din’t mean it as a slam on women.

I’m trying to fathom how **anyone** could _accidentally_ have proper UBB coding, in Notepad, and cut and paste it, and hit “Submit Reply,” and NOT know that was there.

More than that, though…I’m wondering what that was doing there in the first place.

I’ve never seen a shred of hypocrisy in **Green Bean** , so I have to assume it’s some sort of _joke_. But…I don’t get it.

I would dearly love to have it explained. I can’t think of a single angle at which it can be viewed that has an explanation which is not, at the heart of it, shitty.

I actually can, but I’m not going to because you don’t like me.  
It has been mentioned, however.
