     For starters, putting "Keywords: sarcasm"
in the header does not give one carte blanche
to write hateful articles without fear of
justified criticism.

     That said, even giving the benefit of the
doubt as to its intent, the article gypsy flamed
had no redeeming features.  As far as I'm
concerned, it failed as humor and it certainly
failed as an antiabortion argument since the
analogy drawn was completely illogical.  And
note that I'm not saying the article wasn't
funny because it concerned rape -- while rape
humor *is* by definition in poor taste, it is
*not* by definition not funny.

     This is rarely an appropriate response to
someone's anger.  True, sometimes people on the
net will whine inappropriately and deserve to
be told this, but I don't feel that's the case
this time.

     I'm not saying I always find gypsy's responses
appropriate.  I daresay you could probably find
one where your remarks above were justified.
This isn't one of them.

> What's with the knee-jerk responses around here?

     It wasn't a knee-jerk response.  One could
argue back and forth as to whether the responses
to ata boy's first article were knee-jerk, but
his having followed up with several more articles
in the same vein leaves little room for debate
as to whether gypsy's response to this latest
article was knee-jerk.  It wasn't.

> Did it get renamed to talk.bizarre.serious?

     No.

> Or will it be twenty-eight days till the next nasty post?  (Couldn't resist)

     Well I suggest you try.

     While there's no arguing that indeed many
women do become somewhat irrational due to PMS
symptoms, unless you can show that gypsy posts
nasty articles every 28 days your remark is
either very hateful or very stupid, with not
much thought behind it.

     I don't think you'd enjoy never being being
taken seriously and being patronized like that
everytime you got angry about something.

There's a WELL group that has an enormous thread on 
Short Shameful Confessions.

Should I start Rictus Hepping there?

I enjoy thinking that NONE OF YOU SLUGS WILL EVER SEE
