Things Are Not What They Seem

..on the crazy interweb.
I am not a web newbie. I got started with my first Prodigy account back in 1992 (I’m old - shut up), so I’ve been around the series of tubes a time or two. I’ve had my life threatened by someone who mistook me for someone else. I’ve been flamed by all manner of nerd.
But, I’ve also made many a friend here, at least one girlfriend (that I know of) and got a very good business partner.
I realize the pitfalls of the web and I know that people exist for the sole purpose of messing with those online - usually veiled in anonymity. However, until today, I had not realized the depths to which a person would sink to deceive people.
I’m not going to bother with the details. Suffice it to say that I found out that there’s a jerkoff for every good person surfing the information superhighway, possibly more
And just to show I’m a good sport, here is me in all my overly trusting gullible black and white fabulousness.
You know when given the choice to take or leave the “drama” in life — I leave it 99.9% of the time. Not confrontational. Not mean-spirited. Not a natural side-taker unless someone undeserving is wronged. All that said…
The person you mention is the scum of the earth. And the great thing about it is that they know that about themselves on a very deep, painful level. It must truly suck to be them.
Jeffe, the wonderful thing about really shitty human beings is that because there are some people who are just so unbelievably sad and awful out there, it highlights, emphasizes and underscores (with lots of exclaimation points!!!)the really fabulous people in the world.
You are a good egg. A bit scrambled, but a good egg all the same.
I imagine I’m lucky not to know what this is all about, but it is a nice picture! And sorry for whatever it is that it is about.
I agree with Cid - and you can be more than a bit scrammbled but that is why we love you
