  1. Oh hon, I’m sorry- I totally didn’t keep it clean *snort* SO SORRY 🙁 You can delete my bad words…. so sorry!

    LOL. Nah, you’re okay. Some people can be really obnoxious without ever using bad words. It’s kind of a judgment call that I, the proprietor, get to make. 😉

  2. I completely agree with you. I just posted something about comments and how important they are. Comments and replies add depth to a post. I also agree with you that the comments should be constructive and respectful even if they disagree with you. Now I don’t agree that comments should be editted, but I do agree that they should be cleaned up especially as in your case with the video, when there is something just blatantly rude or disrespectful.

    1. When I reserved the right to edit a comment, it was particularly with that video in mind. If I feel I have to clean something up, I will, and I’ll note that I did so. At the moment, that video is the only example I can recall. And I’ve blocked one commenter who, after being allowed to post many lengthy, contentious comments, finally called me a liar for disagreeing with him.

      1. I understand your point. I don’t like people who want to try and discredit someone simply for having a different viewpoint. I would have blocked the commenter as well.

... and that's my two cents
