    I am totally convinced that you are irrational. I have better things to do than to argue with you.
    Mark Twain was credited with saying" Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".

    The Equine Fun Fact Of The Day: Secretariat's first foal was out of an Appaloosa mare named Leola, as a " test" breed. The foal, a stallion is registered with the ApHC ( Appaloosa Horse Club) with the name First Secretary. A bonus fact : The equestrian boot and clothing company Ariat , took their name from part of Secretariat.
    There should be a comma between Paul and Ben and another one following Carson.

    Quotes take the form comma space quote mark quote as in

    Saying, "Never argue...

    Not

    saying" Never

    There should not be a space between ( and Appaloosa.

    In your last sentence the comma and space preceding it are improper and disrupt the flow of the sentence.

    Implying I am stupid when you are the one repeatedly making errors I learned to avoid in the first few years of elementary school is a good example of psychological projection.

    Sometimes it is tricky to properly titrate medications for mental health problems, especially when you have to deal with multiple interacting medications. Or with changing environmental circumstances.

    I do wish people with those troubles success in achieving balance.

    Boss Mare, thank you for the fun fact of the day. Learned a lot since I had to check them out and went down the rabbit hole of additional information.

    Implying people you disagree with are mentally ill trivializes mental illness. Would you say someone who has different views than you hold should properly titrate their chemotherapy medications? Here we see the stigmatization of mental illness compared to physical illness.

    3. "And people not be to so belligerent" is completely ungrammatical.
    4. "You" as the first word in a sentence should be capitalized.
    5. "Kid ... eating their veggies" would be better worded using the plural "kids" instead of "a ... kid".
    6. There is no such animal as a tarpir although there is a tapir.

    And you want me to believe you've got the details of a multi layered covid approach down? Detail doesn't seem to be your forte.
    This response is the classic example of ‘what the person said is dead on accurate and irrefutable so I will randomly attack the messenger about something completely irrelevant.’

    Smart doctors don’t go to crowded, maskless, indoor parties hosted by known super spreaders during a pandemic, sending themselves to the hospital and near death. They also don’t take jobs that they are completely unqualified for and then spend the duration of their time at that job achieving nothing more notable than a large decorating bill for the office.

    JP, you’ve made several statements in this entire thread that are quite WTF and they affect your overall believability.
    I didn’t mean to upset you so much with my comment about Rand. But what can I say, I love it when a bully like Rand escalates a situation and the bullied person stands up to them. I couldn’t find anything to indicate that his neighbor was habitually violent so without proof I have to assume he’s not. I’ll be happy to revise my opinion of him if I’m inaccurate about that.

    Rand Paul’s attacking neighbor is named Rene Boucher. This opinion piece tries to suss out why the neighbor was so angry at Senator Paul.it may have to do with lawn practices. It is true that some men take grass care very seriously, enough to cause major injury to their neighbor, especially if they are easily angered and perhaps a little crazy.

    “…At Hilligans, a popular sports bar by the campus of Western Kentucky University, the same woman who told me about Boucher's fussiness toward his yard also called him a "hothead" and suggested he may have a sort of "little man's syndrome."

    "He gets really stuck in his own head, and he's known for his temper," she said. At the same time, "Rand Paul's not the most-liked man in Bowling Green," she confided.”

    “…Later, at the mention of Boucher, an older man pointed to his temple to indicate that Boucher is nuts, while his wife protested that she knows Boucher better and that he's "just different, that's all."

    as an aside, this is the description of their physical stature:”…an acquaintance of the two men estimates that they both stand five-foot-six and weigh about 140 pounds…

    In the end I assert:

    1. you didnt “upset” me. That is silly
    2. Rand Paul was seriously hurt from an illegal attack by his neighbor. He has ongoing physical problems from that attack. The attack was WRONG. His neighbor justifiably served 7 months in jail and will pay $580,000 won in a civil suit
    3. I am not surprised that you can’t simply admit #2…you should be able to simply say it was wrong.

    I can, for instance, say that Rand Paul’s support of Donald Trump on some of Donald’s ridiculous and harmful positions very much annoyed me. That doesnt mean I completely dislike senator Paul and his politics.

    I can’t help but think a reasonable person of your political persuasion could say Boucher’s attack on
    senator Paul was obviously WRONG while continuing to dislike Senator Paul and his positions. That you can’t make this simple declaration says much about you.

    No, it is more than bae or anyone else “disagreeing” with you.

    Your repeated one-note posts about masks and now this new kick of attacking grammar, spelling, and punctuation, are not the actions of a mentally healthy person.

    Now it's my turn to ask what are your medical qualifications including CE in psychiatry that you feel you can diagnose me?
