Well, maybe *I* was the one who reacted. I am a little angry about it. There is, in my opinion, NOTHING more maddening than someone putting words into my mouth.

Heh -- all this time I've been pontificating about how 'untriggerable' I am, and I just realized that 'putting words into my mouth' is a sort of trigger for me. My dad, who is one hell of a martyr, does that to me all the time and it is a big red unprotected button that I give him access to push, for some reason.

Anyway, back to you. And really to GG, since I wasn't really annoyed at you in the first place, but she kind of exasperated it (although I think she and I are cool now -- right? I hope? GG?).

I'm not sure what kind of tension or anger in my post you feel is directed at YOU, because there was none. Yes, there was some anger in it (and why wouldn't there be?) but it was in reaction to someone else, not to you.

Sorry if I hurt any feelings here.

I apologize, you're right. Your post was directed to gg and not to me. I just felt that since you were discussing me that I would like to respond to your comments.

I am also triggered by someone putting words in my mouth. They're most often wrong when they do that so I certainly understand how that is upsetting and triggering for you. We're on the same page.

You said before that I have twisted your words. I didn't get an explanation to how I did that. Am I the one who you feel 'put words in your mouth'? Are we talking about the same thing as when you say that I twisted your words? I really do need further clarification so that I know to what you re referring, otherwise I'm unable to make any 'proper' comment.

BTW, as far as I'm concerned, everything is fine between us too. We're discussing the situation, not how I feel about you personally.
