He's so jealous of and inferior to Stevie, according to his detractors, that I don't even know how he managed to crawl out of bed all of those decades -- I guess it was only to be mean to her.
yway, you soon forget whatever was said, no matter how antagonistic it was.

This. I have read on countless occasions where people have flat-out called LB an "asshole" as if they knew him. I don't think I've read anything nearly as harsh about Stevie, even when she goes on those magazine interview tours where she brings him up and slams him for whatever mean thing he did to her in the 1970s, 1980s, in the studio, the SYW tour, the hallway, etc. I get truly annoyed with her then-where she goes on about things that I personally feel could be left more private. Not because they're irrelevant or boring but because it would be a much classier thing to do.

But I don't really bash Stevie over it. She has her flaws but she's still completely herself. She will always be someone who goes on interviews and says whatever and I've come to expect it and even warmed to it. Lindsey is far, far more private and has some kind of mental mnemonic device to never forget to say the exact same thing in any interview he gives. Even to the sentence structure. That's annoying as well but, for the most part, I find the fact that he doesn't talk smack or slam as often as the others quite endearing...probably because it all had to be well thought out as only he does best.
