Can you clarify? I do not see how that invalidates my assertion. [English Wikipedia says it’s 12](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_Europe#Vatican_State) but its only cite is a German book I don’t have access to. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps some other aspect of Vatican law supersedes the age of consent.

How about go fuck yourself, Lynn? I admitted that I made a mistake in that I merely copied and pasted the text from the title of the YouTube (changing ‘hiding’ to ‘hides’ and removing the extra hyphen in the process) video in my own title without really giving it much thought, but I don’t troll, and I think my history on this board reflects this.

If you want to change it, change it, but the thread title was not meant to inflame. I was focusing on the meat of the post, and truthfully, I didn’t give the title enough attention to notice how it was worded. I take full responsibility for that, but you don’t have a fucking clue what my intentions were. kindly get the fuck over yourself.

It’s HIPAA, not HIPPA. While HIPAA guarantees a lot of confidentiality, but not in all cases. Child sexual activity is exempted from it, as are gun shot wounds amongst a few other illegal activities.

Did you type that with a straight face?

Don’t give **Lynn** shit because you fucked up. Admitting (sort of) that you made a mistake doesn’t magically make it go away, and it’s the sort of mistake that pisses a lot of people off, so she told you to make sure not to repeat it. With which I agree. I know it’s hard, but taking the time to write out an actual thread title before mashing the submit button is that little extra touch we all appreciate ever so much.

I’m not giving her shit because I fucked up, you idiot. I’m giving Lynn shit because she accused me of trolling.

Well, La dee fucking da, I give a sideways fuck about what you agree with or don’t. Will all of my future interactions with Lynn (if any are to be had) require you as a sycophantic middleman, or can her and I get through it without the stink of an officious, low-rent, Shawn Eckhart puppet lurking at the ready?
