Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Inappropriate, sure, but probably not a hanging offence. And it is possible to smile and care at the same time, no?
I sort was thinking it myself Andy, but someone pm'd with a comment on why even bother to come to the forum and pointing me in the direction of this topic where I saw Harry sticking his foot in his mouth. Harry Im sorry if I offended you, my comment has been edited.

Is it me, or are more people getting irritable with each other at the moment?
Sadly, being English I have to shy away from the group hug. The thought of physical contact with someone who isn't married to me is obviously anathema. But if we could have a rousing group chorus of "For (s)he's a jolly good fellow (-ess)" I'd feel much more secure.

at least it makes a change from the usual mutual back-slapping and tedious self-congratulatory smug bollocks that passes for conversation round these parts lately.........

yeah but that's only because you and her haven't been posting that much recently
Depression can be a killer Snub. I speak from experience. A very good mate of mine was severely depressed. There is a group of us who hang around together - half of the group were of the opinion that he was attention seeking, the other half of us realised he was down - but not the extent of the depression. We took the softly, softly approach - i.e. left him alone when he said he needed space, didnt pressure him etc. This didnt work. The last time he told us he needed to be alone he hung himself.
Your mate needs to be handled with care - but firmly. She definitely needs professional help Snub.
