Kate, I remembered reading this post from Nic:

I have a lot blocked as of today. I want to be able to be myself without worrying about who's gonna get undie bundled over it. So, in spite of the fact that I don't normally block because nobody bugs me enough to just make them "disappear" and I think it's stupid, anyway... whenever someone blocks me, I just read it, anyway.
BUT,I've blocked people to protect
their feelings... for lack of a better way to say it. If they can't see me, they'll have nothing to complain about. If they complain in spite of it, I'll unblock and then REALLY be myself!
