How could I possibly have repeated myself so much in an hour and a half that it necessitated closing the thread without warning? ---

What was so ranty about what I was saying that it necessitated the thread being closed without warning after an hour and a half? I think only one person here is embarrassing himself, and it’s not any of the rest of us. ---

Urgh. Just admit you’ve treated me shittily. Admit your first reaction was outright disbelief. You actually refused to believe me. And you did not want to hear it. But it’s true. It’s not the end of the world. ---

No no no, what’s not the end of the world is the way you treated me. I actually predicted it, I’m trying to find the post. I told you word for word that I didn’t believe it for hours afterwards and that I didn’t blame you for not believing me. ---

_sigh_ Good god, chill the fuck out. Calling the bus driver, a “scandalous CUNT”, getting upset when people disagreed with you, posting thread after thread after thread about it, yeah, that’s why people thought you were ranting, to put it mildly. Go take a fucking nap. Do we think you were wrong, as in, “wrong that that was what happened?” No, I believe you when you said that’s how it went down. But whether it was racism or not, there’s no way to tell. I wasn’t there, but from the way you described it, there’s no proof. If you want something done, you have to accept that you need to be patient. (And don’t call her a “cunt” when you talk to the company – they’ll be far, far less likely to take your complaint seriously) ---

Does anyone else have Billy Joel’s _Angry Young Man_ running through their heads right about now? _And there’s always a place for the angry young man With his fist in the air and his head in the sand He’s never been able to learn from mistakes He can’t understand why his heart always breaks His honor is pure, and his courage as well he’s fair and he’s true, and he’s boring as hell And he’ll go to his grave as an angry old man._ ---

> [@lucid-nonsense](#): > > Stop making jokes and answer the questions! Yes, you were given a “fair listen” as you say, and the only logical conclusion to come to is that you’re bat-shit insane. If you don’t except that for an answer, well, seek help. ---

I’m sure lots of people have some really interesting things to say, but sorry, please don’t say it’s not a big deal. Just one simple thing. I came up to you and told you it put me in the hospital. You’re an incredible dick if you use that against me. Is that how you normally treat people with mental illnesses around here?
