LOL, I was wondering how long it would be before someone commented, ignoring the entire first part of his post and blames the victim. Not that long it turns out!

As I was wading through paragraph after paragraph where the author acknowledged fault and berated himself for it, I was thinking, "This is annoying, but I know if he doesn't write all this crap, someone out there will just ignore everything else he writes. They probably will anyways..."

And sure enough, here you are!

Moral of this story for people who write things online: Don't worry about the critics. You can't please them no matter what you write, or how much you bow and scrape and beg forgiveness for your human frailty up front, there will always be someone who will be a jerk.
