No, you didn't touch a nerve, but brought something to the surface of which I was unaware. As I said in my post, I did not know there were "in" and "out" groups.

It is very interesting to me that not only would someone promote ostrasizing and gossip, but the fact that it is a male is fascinating.

It is very rude, divisive, and childish behavior.

Well, I suppose I am called upon to repeat myself: "Irony abounds".

There's nothing ironic about it.

It's O.K. if you don't understand. I wish you every success in your search for inner peace.

I "understand" that you are smug and think you're especially clever for alluding to me, apparently, in your childish gossip . . . there is no "irony" in that - you just got caught being immature and snarky.

If you want to gossip about someone, just do it - don't make a big production out of it.

I am glad I have this information.

Thanks for being so indiscreet.

Totally classless and immature. Especially disheartening in a "Retirement" community. Some people never grow up.

Gee, I hope you feel better now. You're pretty good with invective. Actually so am I, but I can choose when and where to employ it. I have chosen to leave the field to you in this case.

Wow, I've long respected your posts, didn't expect this of you. The ugliest part of internet forums, imo, is how folks gang together privately to pile upon others. Very junior high. I'm sad that you buy into that.

Default Can anyone help me find this thread?

Ever had the experience of intending to reply to a post and then coming back later only to be unable to find that post? That happened to me just now. I read something about women being better at multi-tasking than men, and I wanted to say there is scientific evidence that indeed they are. I looked through the thread about male versus female attitudes toward retirement, but no, wrong thread. Maybe my problem is that the thread was not in the Retirement Forum. Does anyone recall seeing something about men being poor at multi-tasking?
