I assumed you were joking. But then again, you and I don't have any history of animosity, do we ? Suggestion:The next time you are joking, put a smily face for insurance. Sometimes humor is mistaken for sarcasm on message boards. Example: "Shaddup Pep!" .... Is always a joke to me .... unless proven otherwise. There are always little tools to try to add context to text... In Japan, the number of emoticons (smileys), or emoji, are critical to the success of a cell phone because the Japanese language is nearly devoid of context when written. Emoji play a HUGE part in granting text messages the proper context. I've always liked the forum standard of /sarcasm

I'm learning Japanese and can wholly attest to that.
Good lord it's difficult to learn.
In some ways. In others it's easy...

I will not spend my life this way.

I have had three colonoscopies. All were as Pep described.
In 2009, as he was waking up from his colonoscopy, H invited me into the hospital bed for some hanky-panky. I declined as there were many hospital staffers floating around.

I don't need to expose ... I will humilate them ... the wayward is remorseful ... that from the mouth of someone's whose first marriage encountered serial cheating and now whose second marriage has fallen into the same pattern.
But it is different with me ... then go and do it your way. It's only your emotional health we are talking about. Geesh!!!!

"Stop stalking me on the Internet!!! ", or "stop looking at my pictures, posts, etc.! We're not even 'friends!'"
Ummm...stop putting things on the Internet as a whole that you don't want 1 billion people to see?
Good Lord. My niece asked me how to get her great uncle to stop "liking" her pictures. She thinks he is creepy (he's just old). 1000 ways to fix that problem.

Hey, what if the BS know that that may have transmitted an STD to the OP? Like a cancerous HPV? Should the poor OP be informed? Hahaha

In 2006 I discovered that my WXH had infected me with HPV16 (the most aggressive strain). I had just discovered the affair so I hoped OW would get what she deserved.
Of course now I don't give a damn. Not my life, not my morals, not my problem.

Yes. At a minimum the other persons name and contact info should be provided to public health authorities.
On a separate matter my ex wife took her dog with her. And I'm glad she did. She had left months before the divorce and the dog had a terrible flea problem I tried to treat unsuccessfully. I smiled to myself when she took the dog because I knew that OM had lots of dogs and that she was living with him.

Weird, it has been that way all day long! But if you click on the link, you will see all the actual names that are reading. I clicked on it around 2:00 today and there were actually about 50-60 registered and 200 anonymous reading.

People who choose to be weak and complacent, thereby enabling affairs. Nothing spikes my blood pressure more than that.

Yeah well you can get mad and threaten people Mel, and even smack a few if it will do them some good. But some of us have to watch out cuz certain people just might wake up dead, and we don't want to be blamed for it. I still have kids to raise, and to help support until I am certain I am done.. Of course I would gladly trade the last couple days of my life for their lives, if that's is how it works out. I just don't want to be a burden on the working man or the tax base. We will see how it works out..The last one was the crack king and although he is worthless, I have plenty of reason/excuse to take him out. With smiles...I could deal with the baddazzs in the jail if I had to. Don't want to be negative

We wouldn't want someone to "wake up dead!"
