[[/quote]I must say, though, that a figure of speech is just that - it's not meant to be taken literally. It's like when someone says "f**k me!" in response to something surprising or shocking. They don't generally mean that they want someone to f**k them at that precise moment... It's interesting how many people seem to want to do that around here, though: f**k someone when they're not really asking for it (metaphorically speaking, of course)...
[/quote] If I say that it's always a deeply heartfelt request. Sigh. Never any takers, though. Never any takers.
P.S. Somebody riddle me this: How do you quote just part of a posting? My way seemed rather awkward.

Was a question asking if, You had gotten yourself attached in describing that which you saw, in another. Maybe not, it was a question in regards to the end of your post(And now I have become the thing I loathe. Oh, the irony...) I'm really sorry, acewall: I still don't get it! Whatever I said was said out of anger, frustration and little bit of mischief (maybe a lot of mischief), so I wouldn't take all of it too seriously (except the serious bits ;-)).

I got your energy fine... I was trying to make sence of yourselfs ignorance by asking you a question to see if I might be useful in your process. Its good to have a friend that you can empty-out on!
