If all agree that the BP Forum has indeed "gone weird", then my work here is done.

Off to help others!

My Daddy always told me never to play cards with a guy named lefty, you will never win and to never eat at place called Mom's
Is the not winning part true?

I don't play cards, friend, but I could sell you some nice ones. I've never eaten at Mom's, either.

I hope you haven't eaten Moms.

Regarding the cat dying thread, you're fine. I think it's appropriate to share grief on here, especially if empathy helps you.

Lefty, you're a nut. Let's make this forum even weirder.

Posts like that are wonderful because you're sharing your experience and how it affected you. I'll speak for myself and say posts that are more along the lines of "I do this, do you do it too?" or "when I went here, I did that, what do you do?" are the ones that are bothersome when there is no meaning or relation to mental illness whatsoever. When we all make posts about events in our lives and the effects they have on a deeper level, it's what make this community supportive. So you sharing your heartache with us cannot be annoying in my opinion.

And really, isn't that why we are here? To share our heartbreaks, heartaches, happiness, joy, euphoria...and all states in-between.
