I was really surprised, given my posting history on this and many other threads, to find that at least some people took my posts as serious rather than satire.
I don't really eat children (well - not often).
You played it so well Davflaws. I don't really know your posting history so had to read twice to see if it was just another nasty post in line with some on here or it was a wind up. And I thought, surely no one is that callous. 🤔

It wasn't satire when the pair of you laughed at and belittled my experience with two people who took their own lives.

Fair enough. Good to have the old davflaws back.
Its just - satire is very hard to convey through textbase media ... better be frugal using that.

Stop making things up.
I have already asked you to show me where I laughed or belittled your "experience" and you couldn't, because it didn't happen.
Playing the victim for something that wasn't even posted is devious & pathetic.

Why are you putting experience in quotes: "experience" ?

So you are just skimming over the fact that you made the accusation up and that you are using a tragedy to somehow try and score points.
What sort of person does that.

I'm not trying to score points at all. You are a sociopath, and people can just read what you wrote, starts from here:

And you did it again; more disrespect, more belittling; answer this:

No that's BS - and you know it. Those are air quotes. You're suggesting there is no experience.
