(here and up there with killjoj) but here is the thing, CB DOESN'T post under other names in the course of discussions on this board. (One BIG hint is the "your" "you're" mistake that killjoj made and you failed to catch while incorrectly mocking hizzer use of "paranoid" as a noun* is not one that CB would make w/o correcting it. Another clue is the sentence structures in general, the people you are saying are CB use different writing styles than he does.) You seem to be so devoted to the idea of your own righteousness and rightness that you can't imagine multiple people might actually disagree with you. Whether you are actually right or not I can assure you that there are more than two people who have read through this thread and think you are a nattering wack-job. Welcome to the internet. Here you could say "Sky is up, ground is down" and still find 30 people who disagree with you. When you start discussing cultural mores and passing judgement that number grows exponentially. *paranoid CAN be used as a noun, it is short for paranoid schizophrenic.

Are some kind of a lunatic? Making up the facts you like as you go along just to suit what you would like the situation to be?

Which means this isn't the first time GM didn't get a prompt thank you. Now, I'm going to go out on a limb as ASSume that Megan and her cousins don't move residences regularly, so there is obviously a pattern of not getting back to GM quickly. So no, I don't agree that this incident was an exception in Megan's usual behavior, caused by a move. Look. You can take issue with GM "demanding" written thank you for unsolicited gifts, and you can take issue with her snotty post card, but that doesn't excuse the fact that Megan has a pattern of dissing her GM. I'm thinking it's just to jerk the old girl's chain, but that's just me.

Puh-lease." There was no excuse just a series of given facts. Your the one making things up to fit your worldview. The facts are there for all to see. She moved and as a result didn't get back to her grandma as quickly as she would normally get back to her so grandma sent her this card. That is what it says right? @18.20 no you did not address what Canthz asked with “So now we’ve segued the alleged excuse for Megan’s faux pas from a mail delivery delay to the stress and chores of moving.
