If you don't want strangers commenting on the details of your personal
life, stop revealing so many of them.

We can all live our lives without knowing anyone's personal likes and
dislikes, the foibles of their family and friends, etc.

Then why have a newsgroup at all? Why comment that their husband is cooking
chili for vegetarians? Do we really care? Why comment that they are
cooking for a sick neighbor? Do we really care? Do you see what I am
saying?

However, in my experience on rfc and other groups, NOT knowing
anything about someone is often just as much a cause of
misunderstandings as knowing. When posters take a dislike to
someone and suppute scenarios about their lives as though they
could read them like a book, they are often talking about
themselves and their own shortcomings.

Then there are the hypersensitive (and you know who you are) who go
off half-cocked with wild accusations when someone for example (no
names please) mentions they have not eaten deep dish pizza before
or any other such triviality they seem to think is a deep offense
to them. The only thing you can do is to laugh and consign them to
the bozo bin in perpetuity.

Oh the memories, LOL. I once posted that I made a fabbo Phad Thai and the
trick was adding a dollop of Laura Schudder's chunky peanut butter to
dissolve in the sauce. It really made a difference and chopped peanuts are
an ingredient to begin with. You'd have thought I'd bbq'd a puppy. The
vitriol and hate was nothing short of mental illness.

Expecting the usual suspects will be crawling out from under their rocks any
moment now.
