What IS their problem????

[Anjaffm]

This is why we need an "LOL" button

*giggles*
I could use a "LOL" button for several postings in this thread

.. it is so cute when some people try to wave their.. whatever it is that they like to wave.. but then.. if it gives them satisfaction.. let them wave their.. whatevers... to their hearts' content....

Good thing is that several good links to several good articles were shared - and read - in this thread

I presume that was directed at me. Stealing a page from your book....

it it so cute when people deflect an issue that they don't agree with in a semi-humorous manner, it just shows how closed-minded they really are...whatever...deflect until your heart's content

I really wish for the bullying of Anja to stop. Not only is quite ridiculous, it is OFf Topic.

 

[Anjaffm]

I do appreciate your support, Uma
However, I do not feel bullied in the least. I feel amused. Very amused
Looks like I am doing something right

Seriously?? And her response was on-topic? What about the posts with avatar pics, were those on-topic as well?

 

[Anjaffm]

I think it is a shame what happened to the OP.

But - every cloud has a silver lining - some of us were able to show newer vapers what we are up against, and why.

Rampant Antismoking Signifies Grave Danger

The Tobacco Control Industry

And that is not limited to smoking, or to vaping:
THE DISEASE OF ‘PUBLIC HEALTH’ - We are in the midst of an epidemic of lifestyle moralism.

It is a little unsettling at first, when one starts reading up on the subject.
The truth about things does have a tendency to be unsettling. But it can also serve as a wake-up call.

Yes, every cloud has a silver lining. And if the nasty episode that the OP experienced and told here has helped only one new vaper realize that they are not alone, then it has served a purpose.

Vaping is 99% safer than smoking.
We are the good guys

Ardent, this is the best I can come up with. Use it until you find something better. You write too well to have a generic Avatar.

EddardinWinter, I am honored and grateful that you took the time to pick out this avatar picture for me. I attempted to use this image but ECF keeps complaining about the file size. When I find some time I shall edit it to ECF specs.

Thanks again.

I can fix that for you in the morning. I just need to compress the file. I am only on a phone this evening, which can't edit photos too well.

Glad to do it, Ardent!

I see some poster has an issue with this avatar activity. I suppose some people are just so miserable with themselves they need to try to drag others into their misery. Better luck next time!

It seems to be a common thing here to read just want you want to, and disregard the rest. Claim my posts are off topic when I respond to someone who I understood was responding to me, about a post that was relevant to the topic. I simply pointed out the absurdity of it by questioning why my responses were off topic, but your posts were considered on topic.

Frankly sir, I feel your post to be libel.

You need to look up that definition. Your grasp of the word is quite flawed, so don't bandy it about in an attempt to frighten me.

Leave me out of your agenda with Anja.

Libel - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Libel - a written or oral defamatory statement or representation that conveys an unjustly unfavorable impression, a statement or representation published without just cause and tending to expose another to public contempt.

Nope, my use was spot-on. My use of the word was not to instill fear, wasn't my intent at all. I have already been inferred to be a bully simply by responding to someone, and now you come out and infer that I am miserable with myself.

Secondly, I have no agenda with anyone here. Anja and I have opposing viewpoints. When challenged on my viewpoint, I stand up and defend it, not deflect with some half-arsed attempt of humor. I don't care who is challenging me on my viewpoint, whether it is Anja, or Jesus Christ himself.

Ardent, I took the liberty of resizing that image. If you download it, and then upload to your avatar, I think it'll be good to go. Well, at least I hope so.

Diogenes, libel can only be proved if, among other things, you can demonstrate that EddardinWinter lied in his attempts to defame you. "Unjustly unfavorable" and "without just cause" provide clues to the above statement. I believe that he was entirely sincere when he called you "miserable" and that he did so with conviction.

Be that as it may, let me apologize for my part in taking this thread asunder. Can we not use our aggression against the ANTZ instead of on each other?

Let's PM about this so a certain poster is not inspired into snitching us out to the mods, or writing another lengthy dissertation on it, Jman.

I would rather stay out of pointless and senseless drama whenever possible. It would be cool for you two to have nice avatars with as little fuss as possible...

The new av looks sharp on you, bud.
