I always try to take the Eleanor Roosevelt approach - if I may misquote her wildly .... 'no one can make you feel like an idiot without your consent' - I think we can safely make them the stupids - with or without consent : )))

And what is it I don't know about you yet that makes your friends scared of you? (Having met you all of about twice I think in person :) ) I find you are fascinatingly superaggressive in discussion - but so keen on what you're arguing about that I kinda took that as simply how you are ... not an indicator of your latent psychosis oooer - was I wrong? (will remember to bring the tranq-gun next time ...)

And do you have a good migraine medication? If so - I'd love to get the York notes on it - as mine (zomig) is becoming less effective of late ...
