If you do not care for other people, other people will not care for you and
since you seem to be a cabal of people who are insensitive jerks, how CAN
you feel anything in life?
I never went to Lugnet to talk about myself. If I wanted to talk about
myself, I would have accomplished one of two tasks on my computer. The
first task would be to ask whoever wants to help me out in my life to please
help me in my life. The second, and more obvious task would be to take this
discussion off of Lugnet.
I came to talk about LEGO sets, LEGO creations, and LEGO ideas, and NOT to
be ridiculed and backed into a corner by a group of heartless creeps who
think because there is one degree of difference in Lugnet that they should
punish this insolent infidel for violating the sacred laws of the LEGO brick.
Who made YOU God? Have you created a planet lately? Do you know how a sun
operates, let alone a solar system? Do you know the prescise location of
every tree on the planet Earth? Then quit attributing the same attitude to
me on Lugnet, Mladen and other people who have a problem with me.
