I would like to use this thread to issue a personal apology to any and everyone who were offended by the thread, 'The 'Never Trust' thread.'
I would also like to apologize, too, for my bitterness in recent days that I have, unfortunately, taken out on everybody.
I am a firm believer that everybody has a right to be what they want to be, and be the forgers of their own destinies. What they wear, how they talk, whether or not they believed in a higher power, it didn't matter. When I wrote that article, I had a lot of pent up anger inside, and all of a sudden, I became a loathing monster that lashed out at everybody.
I despised stereotyping of people with all my heart, but, as you can see, I went overboard and became that which I despised....a person who judeges on looks and appearance rather than what is on the inside.
I felt so wronged by the prople who have betrayed me in the past, that it clouded my mind, and caused me to write such a stereotypical mess on the GATT forums, and in the process, generated a lot of feedback that showed me that not all people who act that way are like that, that there are those in society that just try to fit in the best they could....and I think that's something that all of us strive for.
On the bitterness issue, I'm apologising not only for my bitter ways on the forum, but outside as well, when I seemed a little more seething than usual when I dueled and battled in MvC2. KajunKid, you and Rio are very worthy competition, and I would be happy to face you again. Please forgive me for the biting comments....
To tell the truth, a lot has been on my mind in recent days.
The stress of handing in those God forsaken assignments had gotten to the point where I was kneeling on the floor of my home, begging the Good Lord above not to fail. I even did one of those assignments at the very last minute [and with a 40 hour timeframe assigned to each, it ain't easy], and still managed to get through all right. But all of the late nights I spent on them, all of the days wondering if I would ever get through, and all of the time I spent grumbling under my teeth that they were so God damn hard nearly drove me to the breaking point. It was so pent up, I took it out practically on everybody who crossed my path, and now that I look back on it, I realise that you guys were wronged by my anger.
And now, I emphasize once again, on my personal behalf....
I AM SORRY.
