    Fuck it. I'll bump this post again just because somebody dropped a meme on my page that was fucking rude. Ain't no sense in cowering to assholes. Read it until you puke, like I did for six months.

    Wow, someone did that on your page here? Report that to Admins. There may be a wide variety of people who are PJ fans, but there isn't room for targeting someone with rudeness or meanness here, at least I hope there isn't room for that!

    I just read this today. I was at The Home Shows. While I donated to United Way, and made other charitable contributions while there, your essay made me realize that I can and should be doing more. Good read, good perspective. Thank YOU for sharing.

    The thread already got shut down by admin. It's my fault because I said some candid things to some folks who were seriously disrespecting the band. More of that "ticket-holder syndrome" nonsense you and I keep discussing. Some folks agreed; some folks agreed to disagree. 

    Anyway-- one person decided to passive-aggressively drag me with a meme because I stated how difficult it is for disable people to attend PJ shows. Kind of like a "sorry, but not sorry that happened to you" vibe. Then the gravy train started, a few more people took cheap shots and admin swiftly closed it. Not really an exciting story. Just another typical day.

    Maybe I shouldn't have expressed my opinion yesterday. So it's my fault for attracting flies with a shitty post.

    I hope you and your family are doing well, JH6056! Thanks for checking on me!
