Just a WAG, but is is possible that **Can of Pineapple** was **Kaitlyn** ’s sock? Decided to end the charade, but needed an anonymous accuser for cover?

This comes as one heck of a shock, first being told this story firsthand about someone who achieved something so wonderful, and now finding out they’re BANNED and not knowing whether the story is even true or not… :eek: 😕 :smack: ☹

You can click on my username in this post and get a dropdown menu with the option to “Find all posts by this member”. Can guests do that, too? I really don’t know, so I’m asking.
