I'm supposed to be nice to the paranoid cripple

pity routine now? I only mirror back what you
give; your being paranoid and crippled doesn't
change that. In fact, here on usenet you seem
to enjoy flinging your feces just like all the
healthy monkeys. And now you want
compassion? Hah.

Will the "compassion" squad do anything?
Will the "right speech" squad do anything?

Feeling a little defensive?

Actually, I can't help but stick up for the Tangster at least a little
here.

My totally awesome rational and scientific sense of objectivity
compels me to admit that it does seem a bit of a double-standard here
that Tang bullies people and and has been taking heat for it, but when
I have fun and do some of the same things, nobody is jumping in and
getting on my case. Maybe it's because I just returned to the list
and am still a novelty. Or maybe I'm just cooler than Tang. Heh.

You don't give the (albeit unspoken) impression that you are an
exalted teacher. You don't keep telling others to be serene while
being hung up on "crashed" people. You don't fling crap while
saying that if it sticks to someone, it's their fault.

And besides, what's wrong with a double standard? It's all made up.
It's all fluff. Better just relax and be serene.
