Oh, how un-funny is this year's April Fools 'joke'...... again.
I posted something very personal as a friend to two people I cared about, who I thought needed help. Yes, I was given the opportunity to remove my post early, but decided to leave it where it was as it may help someone who genuinely needs an alternative angle on their situation. I wasn't alone in wanting to help a friend, and that hurts too.... how many people's feelings were messed with in the name of 'fun'?
April Fools are supposed to be harmless fun - not with the intention of potentially causing upset or harm. There is a difference. And no, I don't have a sense of humour failure ...... I just don't want anyone to ever feel like I did last year on April 1st as a direct result of the 'joke' on this forum.
I'm sorry Chris, Dottie and the others that were involved in the planning of this, but you have lost the level of respect I had for you. Messing with peoples feelings isn't funny, it's cruel and hurtful. I thought better of you.
