I love you.
or rather... I love your post. LOL I don't want your S.O. kicking my ass or anything. ;) This is sound advice and I'm glad to see that 200+ people have read it. My favorite is the rage quite "noose" option. They go away for a couple days and then slink back like they didn't have a fit. Oh, the drama!
I personally like to keep my negativity to my fictional characters where I can kill them off without being on some watch list. :)
Ha!
Good call on the fictional characters taking the negative brunt!
