Oh man... you are just **trying** to launch me into my next rant on the diffences between "reasons" and "excuses", aren't you?? XD Like forgiveness and absolution, they're two different things and people rarely realize it.
That kid sunk his own battleship from the moment he acknowledged that what he did was "mean". There's plenty of "mean" in the word that's not deliberate - why bother with anyone who doles it out for their own amusement?
