I guess I can be a little obtuse at times as it never occurred to me that someone might introduce a topic to this forum of proudly upright and enviably stiff individuals for no other reason than to “drop a Baby Ruth into the punch bowl.”
Take the Testosterone topic, for example: the fact that it may have been a baited topic, introduced for no other reason than to get a...rise...out of everyone—well, that fact obviously snuck up on me from behind and banged into me like a screen door in a hurricane! I’ll admit, sometimes I can be as myopic as a one-eyed snake, and this was one of those times. I’ll be honest, like having something in the back of your throat that is just too big to swallow, it is a bitter pill for me to admit just how naive I can be.
So if I said anything that offended anyone (like when I made the observation about the high number of posts to the testosterone thread relative to the uncomfortably low response rate to the prostate thread—and snickered afterward) or if I hurt anyone’s feelings (like when I laughed out loud at some of the pet names you have for your appendages—“Mr. Wiggles” and “ding-a-ling” come to mind), I apologize.
Clearly, I blew it.
To the Moderators:
Once again, my tawdry sense of humor has gotten the better. If I’ve screwed up or have somehow run afoul of the rules, I’ll humbly take my licks for my terribly base behavior. Just know that no appendages were hurt I’m the making of this reply.
Thanks for all you do!
To the OP:
My apologies for having fun at the expense of your post—I just couldn’t help myself! When you mentioned “testosterone” and talked about “getting a rise” out of everyone, well...
All joking aside, I agree with everything you said and I thank you for pointing it out (because I really am THAT obtuse!).
