Well, that was about 95% tongue-in-cheek. My mama didn't raise me to be rude and careless about people's feelings, even if they deserve it!

As I said, it would be reserved for those "special" people who think they are entitled to an explanation, than proceed to tell me what I SHOULD be doing ("It isn't good for you to stay home all the time") or tell me they know EXACTLY how I feel, right before they start trying to raise the symptom ante, etc.

Mostly I either try to explain to those who really care and want to know, or just say "Sorry, thanks anyway" to the rest. But there are a couple of people I really, really want to use my new theory on.
