**featherlou** , I beat you to this one. 😉

I posted this in his thread before he came back to tell us the obvious, that he was listening to his small head. You could see the trainwreck coming down the track in slow motion.

As\*\* jsgoddess\*\* noted, there have been way too many “sneering OPs” lately. I can think of at least 4 in the last two months that were annoying. That word sneering really describes them wonderfully.

But the most annoying part is that when he comes back to MPSIMS to tell everyone how a girl broke his heart, it will be seen as heartless for people to point that thread back to him.

I’m reserving that right. This is my proof.
