Ah, nothing like the smell of burning hearts and egos to make one look around
\nand go "damn, I want a burger!"<\/p>\n

I’m gonna keep it short, but I want to say something<\/i><\/b> because
\nanything that gets Flagg to post a simple, clear, straightforward post in
\nEnglish is something worth commenting on. Of course, if you would prefer to read
\nthe post in something more like his usual style please follow
\n
\nthis link<\/a>. If you want to read it the way I usually hear it in my head, go
\nahead and check out
\n
\nthis link<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Anyway, let’s be honest for a moment. Flagg stole a woman. He maybe
\ndidn’t mean to at the beginning but we all sure as hell knew what was happening
\nby the end. I’d try and apologize for it – but I don’t see the need. Hell, I’ve
\nstolen a few women in my life and I sure as hell am not going to apologize for
\nthat either.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Even now as I am having some issues holding onto an important person in my
\nlife I still<\/i><\/b> don’t moan to the fates about it all… because I
\nknow the truth: If I am the biggest dog around I can hang onto anyone I want
\nto. The thing to do is stop looking for excuses and get your shit together. In fact, to
\nbe brutally<\/i><\/b> honest…<\/p>\n

\n

No one ‘steals’ your woman from you, you lose her.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Anyway, the young lady in question is a good person, and I know (because I
\nwas there) that it was absolutely not her intention to get stolen… she acted
\nin good faith every single step of the way and when it became clear there was a
\nreal division in her loyalties she informed everyone involved of that fact. <\/p>\n

\n

It doesn’t change a damn thing that some of the people she told it to
\n chose not to hear it.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Understandably, the people she left are hurt. They are lashing out and they
\nare looking to hurt her, hurt Flagg as much as they can. I understand their
\nfeelings.<\/p>\n

\n

I just don’t see any reason to tolerate it.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    \n
  • You’re hurting? You have my sympathies.<\/li>\n
  • You want to delude yourself about what happened? That’s fine by me.<\/li>\n
  • You want to try and attack people to make yourself feel better? I think
    \n you might want to think again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The [[wp:BDSM]] community, like many small and incestuous groups, is
    \nnotorious for its dramatic and public relationship flame outs. It is a fine
    \nsource of a kind of tedious melodrama and no doubt the final act of this little
    \nopera will occur in some spectacularly stupid confrontation of political power,
    \npopularity or sheer persuasiveness… almost certainly at the most embarrassing
    \npossible time.<\/p>\n

    I doubt seriously Flagg will be first on stage for the final act, but I know for sure he
    \nwill be the one with the flowers when its all over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
