An Apology

[giza]

A friend of mine once said that "assumptions are the mother of all f*ckups", or something similar, and he's right. Sometimes I just jump to conclusions and open my mouth without thinking.

I did it again yesterday. Someone made an offhand comment to an LJ entry, and I just went nuts. I made all kinds of assumptions that were flat out wrong, and I acted like a complete jerk. I said rude, hurtful things that I wish I could take back.

It doesn't matter "who started it". What matters is that I kept it going by adding fuel to the fire. I am as guilty as anyone for making the situation worse. It makes me feel like crap that I did some of these things.

Preyfar, Phil: I am sorry I caused you guys distress yesterday. You were right Preyfar, my decision not attend the event was mine and mine alone. It's stupid for me to be angry at you for that.

Tango: I'm sorry about the mess in your LJ.

Assumptions

Yeah, assumptions are bad things all around...lead to way too many misunderstandings, at which point pride, apathy and ignorance have a horrible knack for taking over
It's good that you at least after the fact realized you erred though, and it speaks well of you that you apologize for it, even if it's possible the apology will avail you nothing.

Bad Kitty! Use the litterbox next time!

Sorry, I just could not resist. Hope you're feeling better soon!

... they make an ASS out of U and ME

Your friend must be the main bad guy in Under Siege II.

Sometimes we don't always feel better after letting off some steam. Hope all parties are ok.
