   In the last quarter-century I have dealt with him, he has not once   
   contributed anything positive to a conversation I was in.  Instead, he has   
   constantly insulted me and has had a filthy mouth.  I'd say after 25 years,   
   I know more than what I want to know.

   I can be a real PITA also.  I know this and, I hope, that over the years   
   I've tried to improve myself and my signal-to-noise ratio.

   As I said earlier, 25 years of insults and filth have caused me to fire up   
   the twit filter again.  Some things are not worth the stress and I sure the   
   heck am not going to let anyone give me another heart attack.   
      
    WD> Diabetes is a still misunderstood killer.   
      
   It's what has caused nearly all of my physical issues from my heart attacks   
   to my Charcot foot (main physical disability) to my deep vein thrombosis and   
   my pulmonary embolism to my ever-painful diabetic neuropathy.  I cannot   
   express strongly enough in words about taking care of one's self to avoid   
   diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
