    I feel strongly that men shouldn't be wrestling in the jello.

    I think they need a separate wrestling area filled with either whipped cream or pudding. Marshmallow optional.

    I agree that men should not wrestle in jello.

    I'm not sure about the whipped cream or pudding, though, so we may have to agree to disagree on this point.

    I'm with BP on the Marshmallow idea. Has anybody brought up cotton candy?

    I've got this weird apprehension at that idea...like maybe they'd not wrestle and just eat themselves.

    And, to avoid being accused of getting on my high horse, I'm not. I've certainly crossed the line and played the *kitten* on occasion. I deeply regret it. No good ever came of it. There are plenty of good people on here, and frankly, there isn't a single person on this site for whom I've developed any sort of deep personal dislike. It's the interwebs. Try to fight fair and treat it all with a grain of salt. Just my humble two cents. You're certainly entitled to yours.

    I really feel like you haven't taken the time to get to know me well enough.

    Hmm, but not so with the whipped cram or pudding?

    I'm down with the whipped cream, I think, the more I think on it. Not pudding for some reason.

    What about mashed potatoes?

    Agreed.

    Whipped cream > pudding

    Mashed potatoes? Ew.

    I will compromise and propose butter.

    I have been there. Both putting myself between and being thrown between.

    It isn't very pleasant.

    It isn't fun.

    If I do it, it's on me. My choice to get in the fight. I don't do it often, but sometimes there's an important reason.

    When I find myself getting pulled into a disagreement, I ask myself who is pulling me into this situation, and exactly why are they doing it. Why do they feel a need to put me in this situation? What is their motivation for dragging me into this mess?
    I would also consider if what they're saying is actually true or if it was a lie or half-truth told in an attempt to use me as a pawn to hurt the other person. Because that's how some people roll.
