A447, Youre one of the handful on here that I like and that's why this nonsense is so disappointing.
IF (and I don't know if this will even happen) Joe returns from his trip and posts a report featuring a pic of him, Matt, Leo, and assorted canines - are you seriously going to refuse to apologise because you haven't seen an extract of his medical records? Something you have absolutely no right to demand btw.
You say you are not questioning his actual existence because you know somebody is pressing a keyboard, but that is not what's meant and you know it. What is meant is Matt's persona, his lifestyle, his situation. If Joe confirms all that then surely you must accept it.
This is rather like when it was suggested that I post photographs of my trip to Thailand - which had to include a dated receipt, a thistle, and some other stuff. I did so in 2016, but still I have MiniMee posting garbage doubting variously whether I've ever been to Thailand or whether I've been in the last 5/10/15 yrs
Please don't turn into MiniMee Mark 2
