Sardonic observation about the need for individuals involved to suffer their own consequences, and to have others who are needlessly involving themselves to detach. ---

Roll eyes smiley interjected. Semi-witty retort about OP’s lack of outside interests. Casual mention of band-space problems, hamsters, etc., that could have done without OP and non-linked OP. Snide remark about poster’s lack of vulgarity. Rating of rant in the pathetically low numbers. ---

Quoting poster regarding lying of other posters using smashie, followed by gentle, yet snarky suggestion that smashie using posters may be remembering erstwhile Temp Board. Again, roll eyes smiley and sub text suggesting that quoted poster refrain from being so sanctimonious, and that above lists are passe, bordering on tedium.
