On Many Subjects

Just so everyone knows, it is not just family who got upset by things I said, but friends, too. OPERA friends, to be precise.

So, henceforth, I am going to write what I think and feel because there is no way to keep everyone happy, and I am not going to try... even at the possibility of loosing fans.

I have become positively BORING in my blog.

I have a blogger blog and one of the ladies who regularly comments there said, "If someone gets mad at me because I poked fun at them, then I poke even MORE fun at them." Not bad advice, really.

It is sad that I have lost some good friends and I don't even know why. There was a case a few months ago where someone stopped commenting on my blog because someone else said I said something bad about them. It was a case of he said, she said, he said. The person, who I thought was a friend, stopped commenting on my blog, when I actually said NOTHING to ANYBODY about ANYONE here on Opera. I don't have time to play those kind of gossipy games. It was sad really. I almost never send PMs to anyone (and that is verifiable with Opera) and if I had a problem with someone on here (which I haven't ever had a problem with any of my friends) I would confront that individual, directly.

So, being the vicitm of gossip from an unknown quarter, I decided to take the low road and stay quietly in the corner. I am not doing that any longer because I would go for days and not blog at all. I would think, "Well, I can't say that or this one will get angry. I can't say that because that one will get angry. Oh, here is a nice safe innocuous subject. Maybe I will blog about that, even though it is so boring it is making me go to sleep."

Therefore, if you happen to get your feelings hurt by something I say in my blog, then YOU are the one with the problem, and not me. If you choose to listen to something someone else says and you are not a big enough person to ask me if it is true or not, then YOU are the one with the problem. If you decide to never read my blog again, then that is your choice and it will not effect my life in any way. My life will go on and I will continue to find funny things everywhere. I will even report them to the world in this blog. If you want to have some fun, stop by and see what if going on in my life and around me. Maybe you'll get a laugh or two along the way.
