Ah, yup all good

I must have missed something, although I think I actually did see that one about it being disgusting, but had been thinking it was on Facebook, no here, so my bad. Yes, that is troubling...And regardless of it being there or here, I found it very hard not to react and ask them if they'd even stopped to think about what Mouse mentioned the other day. That there are 3 sides to every story. For the ones who said this, it appears that they didn't even spend much time thinking about it at all, and almost instantaneously decided "Meat's the bad guy". In the case of that situation, I am 100,000% with you, and if that's all you meant, then I believe we are both equally wishing that those types of things would be left unsaid....And that the people who said those things perhaps spent a little more time with their thinking caps on
