took alittle cruise to the grocery store

I'm really sorry about hijacking your post for this OP, but if RRR is going to ignore my PM's trying to talk this out and post back here about it instead I have to reply here.

Rusty got me once something exactly like this before (where he said I really hurt his feelings) and I immediately opologized to him in public and told him I was just messin with him and didn't mean or wish to hurt anyone.
Afterwards he told me he was just messing with me, and that it was all in good fun. (or whatever) and everything was fine as far as I knew for a long time.
I took it as he is just a smartass kidder like I am and that he could take as good as he got, but I guess not.
I took it as his sometimes seemingly hurtfull comments were just his way and I was ok with it although I felt bad for some members who might not realize he was the way he is.
Now apparently I hit a nerve and things aren't funny any more, but I'm not opologising this time, because for all I know he's going to come back and say "I got you again"
Actually kind of wish he would in a way.
Bottom line is that if you're going to dish it you should be able to take it when it comes back to you, but I guess it's a one way street all the sudden because of a sensitive subject.
If I would have known that this was something he was basically forced into because of health issue's I would have been more sensitive about it. (but I didn't know because neither he or anyone else told me)
Now I'm the Ahole, "Putz", the insensitive dick all the sudden?
I don't think so.

If ya can't take it don't dish it out.

Get over it (that's what you tell the rest of us all the time) or don't, but I'd rather you did Rob.
