I'm not terribly fond of mocking people, and I'm not certain why the phrase "I believe it's said 'Don't go away mad; just go away.' Do I see light at the end of the escape hatch? Run for it mav!" is so much of a mock as an attempt to point out that getting mad at someone who tells you to speak less leads to conflict. I was simply suggesting that we shhh about being confused. I hate being mocked and I hate mocking. However, I was greatly amused by the idea of smocking someone. Can't you picture some nut running around town handing out smocks? Terribly amusing for someone who has a mind as simple as mine... I hope my comments of late were not misconstrued.
As for anyone else who would like to make a show of Mav, leave the fellow alone for goodness sake. I'd hate to have my hind quarter rapped on whenever I say something someone else doesn't agree with or thinks is stupid. That wasn't the case here so much as someone just making a snide comment, but all the same no one likes mockery and criticsm I would think.
"PSSSST! Keep it on the DL!"
