No, I don't mean Richard or Judy. I specifically meant you, Barry, when I referred to 'mean people'. Your posts are often gratuitous jabs at others. They create enmity, and tension, which you apparently enjoy, when it is aimed at others. Then, all the falsehoods and digs in the world can't stop you.
But ya see, Barry, what that sort of behavior also does, is make you hair-trigger sensitive, when others give you a taste of your own medicine. So you howl like a cat, with your tail stuck under a rocking chair, without recognizing why.
