Nope its just aimed generally at the name callers.....but also yeh it could go for the thread too, people call people because of their ignorance, own in security & having a narrow mind - one thing that took me a long time to get in line was my own reaction to it [ask your tinks about my school years!] people say hurtful stuff to make themselves feel better & to gain reaction in hope others join the bandwagon so makes them feel GOOD or popular [saddo's] - so whats the worse thing you can do is fuel their fire with a reaction!!! I do the absolute opposite & well practised on one person i feared & it works cos it takes the power off them to yourself, like i said i dont take offense to name calling in fact immune had it too long over my life & like i said above i've yet to find someone to be original & call me something i haven't been called before if they have to, i will give em a round of applause - only happened a few times tho & it shocks them more that i aint bothered but clapped em for it with a
