Will you consider forgiving me for my behaviour in the last 24 hours?

I posted a question the other day, about becoming more mellow since I joined Fluther.http://www.fluther.com/101066/do-people-become-more-mellow-the-longer-they-participate-in-fluther/
Since then, I have gotten a serious edge-on, and I think I may have let my emotions get the best of me. I have been a little “in your face” with some of my Fluther neighbors, and perhaps a little provocative, if not insulting.
I would like to blame @ETpro. I think he encouraged me in the comment thread that followed the above question.
But, I guess it is just me.
I know I have probably hurt, annoyed or even insulted some of you.
I did not mean it personally. Still, you have a right to be put off by me.
I would apologize if I could guarantee that it would not happen again.
But it probably will.
I can only hope that you will consider forgiving me.
Thanks
J

You’re alright in my book :)
I have no idea what you might be apologizing for, but the fact you are aware that you need to makes you okay with me.
@josie Wow, here I was all ready to kiss and make up till I learned it was all My Fault! I would just like to say this is not a proper modern apology. There is no “if” clause in it. It needs to begin something like, “If anyone took offense…” Leave it all the fault of those offended that you even need to issue an apology.
I have no problem whatsoever with you :D Hehe we all have emotions that we need to let lose sometimes. in my opinion it is best to let out your emotions rather than bottle them up and release them all on one person, or never release them at all.
I feel like I missed something. Whatever you supposedly did, you made it a point to say that you were wrong, and apologize. I can’t see how anyone that was affected wouldn’t accept your apology.
Sure, sure. I guess it’s my lot to continuously miss all the hot & heavy action.
Well, gee Josie. I just thought you were funny so if this is a public apology to ET, I think you got that done. Otherwise, I don’t think you owe anyone any apology.
How can you blame someone in an apology? Isn’t an apology accepting fault?
and I have no idea what is going on
Apology accepted. But not needed.
Whatever. . . .
@Blueroses If @josie needs to apologize directly to me about something, then I absolutely refuse to forgive till I know what it is I’m supposed to be upset about. :-)
I’m forgiving, no grudges…unless someone calls me a bitch…heh! lol
You’re cool. And perfectly correct to blame @ETpro for any number of the world’s ills, including global warming, the failure of the economy and most especially the increasing size, intrusiveness and “efficiency” of the US government. You can blame me for overpopulation.
Actually, I thought it was a pretty good question.
@CyanoticWasp MuaHaHaHaHa. Send $1 billion dollars and I will make it all better!
I’m so glad I have @ETpro to blame now for everything. Thanks, Josie!
I’ll forgive ET when my dishwasher stops leaking
@Blueroses Your dishwasher will fix itself as soon as the check clears. :-)
Miraculously, I was not one of the people you offended.
@ETpro Actually, it isn’t…people just think it is and it’s fun to let them.
@ETpro the check will clear when you tell me what to write in the “pay to” line.
My bank would not accept dude in overcoat selling the number “8” btw, the next time you’re in Denver I’d suggest going to a different number… 4 perhaps.
The fuzz is getting suspicious about 8s
@Blueroses You mean your bank won’t accept “Pay to ET”? They can see me in the movie!
Could this have something to do with a certain “mistaken phone call” that happened earlier this week? Hmm… I wonder
Dude !!!!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING ??
LMAO#
I understand where youre coming from, I once became friends with a group of respected individuals on an msn QnA site, then I fucked up my rep one night by being over offensive and argumentative.
Now Im not too stressed about what I say, b,cos I dont care too much about how others see me, as long as my words dont cause serious harm , then I am entitled to say them.
As are you
No fuckoff!! XD…......yeah, I too have no idea what you’re on about. Just know this, if ever anyone on here is “provocative” or “insulting” towards me, it’s immediately laughed off & forgotten. Couldn’t care less, far better things to be doing. Happy days :¬)
I disagree with you on pretty much everything. But I respect you for posting this.
No can do @josie not until you can first forgive me for blaming @ETpro for our expanding Universe, for the purported existence of God, for the Tea Party and for grizzled gray-haired guys doing rock and roll! I will eat a grapefruit and wait your reply!
I was absent yesterday and missed whatever you did, but this question proves what I have always thought of you. You’re a good guy @josie. :)
@josie, I wasn’t one of the people you mentioned, but because we are all, I would guess, intelligent people, it is hard to imagine any of us being offended. ;o)
But I also have no idea what answers you refer to.
I aplogized for mis-interpreting a question yesterday and my apology was modded as ‘unhelpful’. lol
I hope my acknowledgement was seen by the author. :-)
I agree, it’s not in the toss it’s in the catch.
We all can fall from grace momentarily, but, a good catch saves the day.
