Anesia, I hope your not trying to hurt the feelings of ‘Wun-Phatt-Pratt’? Did you know that he recently said he liked you and what a good person you are. Well after this I am sure he will withdraw that, and find some nasty but what he feels are appropriate words for you.
Well done Anesia, against all the spite, malice and hate aimed to destroy you, you have come through in a shining light.
Like seriously?
