Gift Wishes, Continued

Oh yes, one other thing I'd like to receive for the Big Overhyped Fake Christian Holiday - just for one day, couldn't random strangers stop coming out of the woodwork to deluge me with a dozen angry flame emails for my queer by choice opinions I expressed weeks or months or years ago on random bulletin boards I didn't even think anybody read anymore?

Apparently not.

You might feel better about the qbc thing when you read this:

Okay, first, here is this really ignorant, insulting, homophobic post. The initial one isn't that bad, but the guy's comments to what people say are worse.

So I was reading through the comments, trying to decide whether I had something worth saying, when I come across a comment that was well-written, but used the "homosexuality is not a choice" excuse. So, I called her on it. And, lo and behold, she replied with a very civil, polite, open-minded comment.

Yes, actually I saw that URL on my counter earlier today, and I immediately though "oh NO!!!" because whenever people on LiveJournal link to me and it shows up on my counter, they're almost always saying something absolutely horrible that I just dread even clicking on . . . and then when I clicked on on that one it all turned out to be so wonderful. I was greatly relieved. :)
