A fray caused by lego parts and goose excrements.

Someone needs a girlfriend, and not you Chewy.

I had the exact opposite response. When I saw this thread title and who authored it, I just had to click. Like slowing down at an accident. You did not fail.

To your post; I'm going to have to say goose excrement. I am assuming you don't mean gander feces. I don't know where you would be stepping in it, but if I were at the park barefoot with a goose's deuce smeared under my foot, I might be stuck with it until I can get home to clean it. I am picturing myself dragging it off on grass and making it worse. It can abruptly ruin an afternoon.

As far as Legos; I think we need a little clarification. I have stepped on numerous pieces and the pain scale differentiates depending where it landed. If I caught it in the arch, I'm okay. If I caught it in the heel, I would suffer that momentary "Son of a @#$%" experience but it would dissipate and I can continue on with a clean foot. Sort of like getting a shot. Pain for a second, a slight 3 minute lingering ache, but you can continue with your activity.

So I'd endure the Lego over bird stool.

Thank you for allowing me to use 4 synonyms for defecation in a mature, scientific manner germane to your inquiry.

I doubt it’s his surname to begin with, and if so, judgement matters. And fwiw, there should be no reason to even have a privacy policy like that when it comes to threats.

Simply don’t threaten people... how’s that sound?

And don’t blame people on the receiving end either.

However, I will edit it as a gesture of goodwill because I’m sure our friend has cooled down and given his actions some sober second thoughts.

Your call. I was just pointing out I have seen the Mods react to that action in the past.

PM rec'd...

"I feel bad for you. Please chill out."

Best, CJ

What threat? I never threatened you, I just don't like your condescending attitude. And you need to chill out. You are always angling for a fight rather than posting anything meaningful.

Please read your messages to me again.

I feel bad for you, because, you’re clearly aggressive.

I didn’t report you.

I didn’t bring others into this.

I didn’t block you.

Etc
Etc
Etc

So ya, chill out.

Here is a general suggestion to everyone.

If you find a particular thread distasteful, a waste of time, useless etc. Then simply:

Don’t participate.

There was no malice in Cjs thread, was it enlightening? Meaningful? No, probably not, but it is not hurting anyone so just let it be.

At least I think that’s simple.
