me: no, stop being stupid, I've recruited people from that very long just now
Karen: When you call people a faggot YOU look stupid.
me: you are not qualified to assess what I'm doing
me: Go look at what's happening
me: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/1/18/937219/-Lets-help-Tunisia-achieve-liberty
Karen: I know that you make a fool of yourself when you blog like this. YOu said the other day that you weren't going to blog anymore.
me: sweetheart
me: seriously
me: you don't know what you're talking about.
Karen: I read all that. But you should just stick to that -- not arguing with people on sites where you are becoming a punchline.
me: I'm not becoming a punchline, go read the comments
me: they let me guest post there now
me: three or four people are hard-core conservatives and don't like me
me: the others used to be my enemies but now admire me
Karen: You sound grandiose -- stop making it all about YOU.
me: go read it before you bother me with hostile nonsense, please
me: I'm not
me: no one thinks that
Karen: I am not being hostile. I am seriously worried that you are coming off as unbalanced and someone not to be taken seriously.
me: no one else thinks that
me: my stuff is being sent around by Hastings and Eisler and others at this very moment
me: and I'm working directly with a large number of Tunisians
me: you are misreading the situation
Karen: Stop making it all about YOU
me: you are talking about me
me: I'm responding
me: other people talk about me
me: sometimes I respod
me: you have not followed this closely enoguh to assess it, please knock it off
me: you are too busy arguing with me to stop and tihnk if you're wrong
Karen: No, I mean in the BLOGS don't make it all about you.
me: I'm not
me: only you and a couple of my conservative enemies even claim that
Karen: I'm telling you that you have to be careful not to sound grandiose.
me: that blog discusses me, mom
me: they write posts about me
me: they've done so for a long time
me: just stop, okay?
Karen: You need to answer in a more measure tone and not use words like faggot.
me: I usually do
me: but I've called people faggots dozens of time on the net and very few object
me: I do so for a reason
me: I'm very good at what I do
me: and what I do includes this stuff
Karen: And the reason is.... to sound like a 7th grader?
me: and you need to start understanding that
me: everyone else does
me: and they see even more of my work than you do
Karen: Everyone else doesn't know that you are not paying your own bills, that you have paying assignments just waiting to be done -- like Skeptical Enquirer.
me: we've gone through this several times in the last couple weeks, please see our prior chats
me: mom, I'm working on an op-ed for al0-Jazeera right now
me: and getting other assingments regarding this very axtivity
Karen: Yeah, are they going to pay you for it?
me: Yes, now please leave me along, I'm busy
Karen: Please try not to sound so immature and grandiose.
me: okay
