There is absolutely no offense intended in this rant...but I have to get it out of my system!!! The whole "silly Starbucks fiasco" has left me reluctant to communicate with members of this group...I like this group...I like it very much...but when all I do is express an opinion regarding "corporate bullshit" and it "blows up in my face", causing at least one member to quit the group, I can't help but feel very badly...even though my remarks were entirely misunderstood. NOT ONCE did I refer to ANY PERSON...I spoke of "Starbucks" and other corporations in general...yet somebody somehow managed to take it personally...So how can I enjoy participating in the group when I'm afraid that any remark I might make could cause another ridiculous misunderstanding??? This is the kind of thing that takes all of the fun out of a group...I have never shown disrespect towards another individual online, and I doubt I ever will...so being made to feel as though I intentionally hurt somebody's feelings really defeats the purpose of participation in a group...it also begs the question: What have they got against me???
