The B3TA ConfessionalWith the Pope about to visit the UK, what better time to unburden yourself of anything that's weighing on your mind by posting it on the internet? Pay particular attention to the Seven Deadly Sins of lust, greed, envy, pride, posting puns on the QOTW board and the other ones. Top story gets to kneel before His Holiness's noodly appendage, or something

Why DIDN'T you yell at your kids? They should now how much they hurt you.
I'm sorry for your loss.

They knew.They were there as I buried the bird. They saw my tears. They knew how much she meant to me.
A wise man once wrote:
After a bitter quarrel, some resentment must remain.
What can one do about it?
Therefore the sage keeps his half of the bargain
But does not exact his due.
A man of Virtue performs his part,
But a man without Virtue requires others to fulfill their obligations.
What could be gained from yelling at them? They knew what they had done. Haranguing them would not bring the bird back, it would only make feelings worse. What benefit would that bring?
The lesson was learned.

Fair point.
What I plan to do, when the kids get older and have children of their own, is buy those grandkids every noise making thing I can lay my hands on. Whistles, drum kits...you name it.
Fucking kids...I'm playing the long game.
