Am I going mad?

[David Johnson]

You know how it is. Sometimes on here and in everyday life, you post or say something and you get a reaction that makes you think "Fuck am I going bonkers?" Simple enough point I am making. Why such an unbelievable reaction?

This is one of those moments. I merely ask Sam to clarify what he means not only for myself but other forumites reading the thread, when he says people like me are "wrong" and "out of touch" and these are the reactions I get from Mr. Slater.

"It's a shame he spends more time having a go at me than sympathising with innocent people who are killed by the religion he defends with such gusto. I guess we know where his priorities lie."

"I've said it before and I'll say it again: he's obsessed with me"

" find it disgusting (an often overused word, but which I'm using in all sincerity here) that David will use the response and anger at the death of 12 innocent people as an opportunity to troll me. It's distasteful - but, sadly, all too predictable."

"Yet more questions from David about me, when this thread shouldn't be about me and he knows I will not engage with him due to his constant disingenuousness and, on a few occasions, outright bully tactics in trying to ostracise and turn other forumites against me."

And all of this simply because I have asked him to explain his point?

Sorry, but I find this reaction, scarcely believable and almost beyond comprehension.

Yes. Next question?!

Going?

You've been fucking barking mad for ages.

(hope it helps)

Thank you. The views of a couple of medical experts always helps with diagnosis. I will nip down to the pharmacy forthwith.

You walked straight into that one! My late father had a colleague, who after a breakdown and treatment was certified as sane. Not many of us have such confirmation.

Don't worry David, I'm not commenting on Sam per se but in general where I'm concerned.

I get this all the time and in truth it comes with the territory of dealing with random people in the public you don't know.

I've got responses so left of field to my initial post it had me wondering if the other person was just way out there past Pluto ka-blooey.

I've generally found your response to my posts reasonable and you've corrected me a few times. Some people just will not accept they are at fault whereas I feel its human to make mistakes. I ont claim to know everyting as my critics seem to suggest

If youre bonkers then maybe I am too. Takes one to know one. Just roll with it. We're all a bit bonkers if we post on an off top forum on a porn database and worse, take it personal.

Maybe the sane ones have left already

[David Johnson]

Lovely post. It's why this is the only social media site I can be bothered to post on. Where else would you see such a cross-section?

Cheers!
