All you know is the exaggerated inaccurate version I give on here mostly for effect. How about ignoring me if you find my posts not to your tastes? Or just not saying anything? Roll your eyes at my post and go on with you awesome healthy life and leave me to mine.

Yeah, that's totally how we do things here, no one ever gets mocked for revealing stuff about their personal lives.

"When, however, I know there is a grain of truth to it, even if it's exaggerated and blown out of all proportion, it rankles and I have a hard time letting it go." - see below.

I'd say it's illustrated by that fact that I'm not overly happy about the Lithium gags because I have some genuine history in this regard (although I think I have the sense not to get obviously would up about it) but the steam-punk gags are more of less water off a duck's back.
unless I got the wrong end of the stick..

but my real point is that you were criticising PJ for revealing anything about himself which could attract piss-taking, when you've done much the same and then taken the hump about it.

In my defence I'd say I'm criticising him for getting the hump when I quoted his own words back at him. Although before that I was criticising him for banging on about his HOT WIFE.
as for my getting the hump about stuff I've revealed, have I? you could well be right, my memory is shit, but AFAICR most of my life I don't reveal on here (as I know the shit would get ripped, this being what happens here).

usually the better aimed stuff and like fuck will I point out what that is. Although I will say that is annoys me that because I may have been a bit *swiverly finger motion* in the past people people tend to write me off as a nutter whenever I have a go at someone. but, hey, whatcha gonna do

and when you suddenly act out of character - like today - then people will take what little they know about you and (perhaps unjustly) leap to the conclusion that you're having a funny turn.

I forget that some people are relative newbies. I used to talk a lot more but most of the people I liked talking to left. these days I only tend to come here when I'm bored, which probably adds to that impression.
ETA: I think I did always rant though. it's just that now most of the pleasant conversations that used to happen in between don't happen as I'm either not here or not talking.

and you get annoyed when people mock you for being an erratic mentally ill person, so you come on b3ta and act like an erratic mentally ill person by attacking people at random for no apparent reason and then try and take the moral highground?
Am I ready this right?

So, you have a history of erratic behaviour due to mental illness
and you get annoyed when people mock you for being an erratic mentally ill person,
would be closer IMHO

and just as no one takes me seriously due to my mental history, I'm not going to take you seriously due to your history of saying any old thing, just to wind people up.
