Bob, you're acting like a jackass.....
You show yourself to be nothing but mean spirited and completely tactless, not to mention a cranky-assed bitch (as you so correctly put it). Your arrogance in thinking that you shouldn't apologize when you hurt someone's feelings because of your status, is nothing short of a huge entitlement complex, and is what I've come to expect to hear from you. And if you think having AIDS is a rightful excuse to behave the way you do, then guess again. What ticks me off is the flip side of you is a funny, funny man who can be quite entertaining and informative in your posts. Where's that person gone?
I've known Shane personally for many, many years and to call someone like him hateful is so over the top and ridiculous, but again, typical of the way you think (if that's what you call it). You've lashed out before at Robert for no reason, and he, least of all, deserves that kind of treatment. If you can't act like a civilized person, then don't post. I guess I can't blame people for sending you hate e-mail, though I think it's downright cowardly to do so anonymously.
Not trying to insult you, but come on man...you have no problem doing it to everyone else.
