Sorry for the inconvenience

I hope this is not a huge pain in the ass for people - please tell me if it is. But I've gone ahead and changed the settings on comments. I hate to do it, being a big believer in democracy and all, but I'm also a big believer in accountability, and it seems to me that if someone is going to go to all the trouble to look up words in Webster's in order to ineffectively insult me, he or she ought to get due credit.

I will change it right back if it proves annoying for people. Just let me know.

Brava. Your blog, your rules. No reason you have to put up with anonymous fucktards.

I think it would be enormously satisfying to post his email address somewhere that all the penile enlargement spammers can find him. It is clearly a product he is in need of.

Hey babe, glad to have you here, believe me, and you're going to have to sling a lot stinkier shit than you have to get me upset. Just think everyone should be at least sort of on the level, is all. Because anonymous trolls come off as cowards, even if they're kind and generous and brilliantly intelligent people. As I am sure you are.

Though I do wonder why you keep hanging 'round if you have such contempt for me. Don't get me wrong - I get off on other people's contempt. Makes me hot. Just curious, is all.

Love,

Julie

You must be doing something right. The tree-dwelling mouth-breathers are all worked up.

I'm not much for erasing comments as a general rule. For one thing, Snatchycakes is right - I've certainly said some untoward things that didn't come out right. I blame the interviewers plying Spanish rose at lunchtime. But one thing this life long accomodator has learned is that you can't please all the people all the time, and if you did you'd be boring and write a book no one on earth wants to read. So, roll with the punches, I say. If it gets too obnoxious, I'll edit out the more repetitive/abusive comments, just for the sake of civil discourse.

You actually make it seem so easy together with your presentation however I find this matter to be actually one thing that I think I’d never understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely broad for me.
