Weeds Bugs

… on making a fool out of yourself (again) with your useless comment and your nonsense vote. I get that you don’t have to be so interested in all of my work that you might have first found out elsewhere at this site the explanation for what you wrongly perceive to be “bug language.” One piece and one vote is not that big a deal. But the fact is that your ongoing willful misunderstandings-s-s-s of my pieces is getting tiresome. You are often quick to judge negatively and to vote punishingly while you yourself admit you don’t understand something, and I’ve been letting it slide for too long. To my memory, I’ve never voted on anything of yours, and with good reason. I’m sorry I offered a couple of suggestions on your rain piece, and I wasn’t fooled by the terse politeness of your response nor by the acquiescent subterfuge in your subsequent poem about a day in Neopoet. (Did I read that right? What's up with the "in" there, anyway? Sheesh.) I’ve never posted any work at this site (whether a “cute write” or otherwise) to warrant a lowly 3 from you or from anybody else. I think it’s immoral for you to vote on something you don’t trouble yourself to even try to comprehend, and I think your child-scrawled crayon marking of a 3 is shameful. Sometimes you give me a 4 tied to praises but with no helpful remark as to how I could earn a 5 from you. Other times you express your complete and utter puzzlement over something that I’ve written, yet you proceed to vote anyway when you have no business judging what you do not grasp intellectually and emotionally. That recent too-good-to-be-true 5 you gave me was a first, wasn’t it? Pained you into now sliding in here first to smear my page and slap me with this undeserved conspicuous 3? Really, Jess. If you can’t offer positively constructive advice for substantial improvement (and I think we can agree that you can’t), your vote is hollow and should be more embarrassing to you than it is to me. Your vote here is nothing more than a show of blatant ignorance. Do you still feel good about it? I’m not overreacting. You and I just do not connect on any level, and I can live with that. I really do not benefit from your hasty comments, and I’ll thank you to refrain from commenting and voting on my pieces in the future. Chuck

cede important ground to the bugs, they're actually quite helpful. I know (usually) that if the bugs like a plant ... that probably it's an edible for me, too. (Don't get the same service at supermarts, I'm sad to say.) Don't have much have much use for God, but if I did, I would likely say, "May God bless those bugs that guide me/point me in the right direction." Hugs back, Chuck

about to boot me off the computer. Virus troubles, evidently. I think we can handle this further by PM (perhaps tomorrow). And thanx for responding. Yours, Chuck
