Thanks for steppin’ up, 0p2n. It is much appreciated. ~berurah</p>
<p>Back to the issues at hand…the weighty matters of gender and anonymous posting.</p>
<p>Anonymous gender posting?</p>
<p>Posting gender anonymously</p>
<p>I’ve spent the last 20 minutes skimming through this thread–some fun stuff. I think most people know that I’m a mom, so not too much guessing there. My DH used to make me think I was the only one in the world who used !!! in great quantities–he and our 2 Ss have always made fun of my overuse of them!:rolleyes: Then I met berurah, and now I know I have a kindred !!! 
spirit!!! But she puts me to shame with her color technique!!! :D</p>
<p>See…^^^???</p>
<p>Genders posting anonymously. ;)</p>
<p>IRISH!!! Yep, you and I <em>ARE</em>
KINDRED SPIRITS!!!</p>

<p>Anonymously posting gender :D</p>
<p>did I bring this back to the original topic??? I’m happy to oblige p2n, and sorry to say we were very happy that D’s BC Eagles won at FSU Everyone has to have an off year occasionally–sorry 
FSU does have amazing traveling fans!!! </p>
<p>berurah~ {{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}} for being a girl buddy !!! and a kindred spirit!!!</p>
<p>Ouch We were at that game. </p>
<p>Oh well, that’s football…as I bang my :eek: head on the desk!!!</p>
<p>BC’s a good team. :)</p>
<p>i did read the thread, and I understand ariesathena’s reaction, having been the target myself on a couple of occassion, and yes, one does feel like a target</p>
<p>“trying” to be supportive - you either are or your not</p>
<p>
DAMN!!! You sure know how to impress a girl!!! :D</p>
<p>
You can support a person without agreeing with everything they say or supporting everything they do. Some people consider not condoning their every action to be “unsupportive.” That is not necessarily so.</p>
<p>Being supportive does not always mean saying ‘yes’ or facilitating weak choices. Sometimes, it means saying ‘no’ and redirecting behaviors to encourage positive outcomes. Usually this is with kids, not adults. </p>
<p>(This does not pertain to the above discussions with Aries)</p>
<p>Wow. I’d really have a problem with people discussing me if I wasn’t even here. :mad:</p>
<p>hh~</p>
<p>Unfortunately, even after we leave a thread, our contributions remain, fodder for subsequent discussion. Nevertheless, my comment was a generic one in response to CGM.</p>
<p>Just because someone doesn’t post, that does not mean they are not present (right all you lurkers out there?)</p>
<p>…spirits in the material world…</p>
<p>ok, virtual world.</p>
<p>Virtually lurking…or lurking virtually?</p>
<p>or…lurtually virking?</p>
