Lol @ your attempt to shame me. It doesn't work because I regret nothing, and apologize for nothing. It's not illegal to seek feedback about self from others. It's not illegal to be tall, young, male, english speaking. And most of all, it's not illegal to think a woman with a beard emoji is ridiculous.
