Attached: 1 image Pinned. It's my biggest pet peeve on social media, one you've heard me discuss here often. And I see I'm in good company. The various versions of "surprised" replies (I get them constantly) are, IMHO, lazy, condescending, and/or meaningless. Enraged? Yes. Alarmed? Yes. Heartbroken? Yes. Even shocked? Yes. Surprised? Hardly ever.

To respond to your VERY kind, sweet, generous replies (bc of those of you who I adore, I'm not deleting my account):

👉🏼My account will be here, but I've run out of patience with Reply Guys, "not surprised," Debbie Downers, trolls, and know-it-alls who debate everything to death.👈🏼

I'll lurk.

But I know when to step away: It's when I find myself reluctant to check in. I've reached that point.

But thank you. Hugs. I'll be around. You can always follow my Bridgy account. xo

@GottaLaff Very pleased to read this news.

What a blooming asshole. We see your hypocrisy, Spit.
Kindly use a discreet spittoon, please. A far, far, far away spittoon. Like Timbuktu far.

@SherBeareth @GottaLaff I don't know what initiated the little flow of bile from you and others, especially after making a positive comment about another decent person, but neither do I care, as I'm endowed with the hide of a Rhinocheros.
And now I'll simply block you in case what you suffer from is contagious.
