@ultraslacker...I truly and sincerely appreciate your take on this matter! You hit the nail on the head when you said, "you couldn't fathom where the "creepy" was derived from. It was that and that only that made me thing WTH? I get it that people might claim that they know someone, but how many times in real life have we heard / seen when something bad like murder happens, neighbours or friends coming out of the woodwork with the lines...."that person is not like that", "they are from a good family" and other BS like that.
The people that jumped in for the poster failed to see the impact of the comment, and instead for some weird reason speak on behalf of the poster. Only Mark.AU had the decency to point out the obvious. To me, that is good bystander intervention if people have heard of it.
Anyway, again thanks for your post. I'm just a person that enjoys running, as opposed to dramatics or wanting virtual strangers to like me online.
