Re: Dining does and donts
To bad my friend that took his own life didnt realize it.
You have NO idea what the people you are talking to have gone through. Keep throwing out reasons that you're a special person who should be treated with care... there will be someone on this board who can beat you at your own game. So I recommend you give it up now. Nobody is throwing sympathy you're way because of bullsh1t you've gone through. We've all been through bullsh1t.

And with this... I finally confirm that I've wasted my time responding to MUD.
At least it was entertaining for awhile!
Currently Reading: Don Quixote by Miguel De Cervantes
But I didnt ask for sympathy, nor did I say I was special, nor did I say I knew what any of you have been through. If you can only respond with being hateful or spiteful thats not my problem, thats your heart.
I dont know your problems with god. You have to live with yourself. Some people I dont know how they sleep at night.
What, that he didnt realize what a good person he was. This is a pact we made long ago to do good. I dont see what is wrong with giving people 500 dollar scholarships in the music department. People using those scholarships are the ones that are special, they will probably be endured loved for thier gifts. I treat others with care. It takes all walks of life, I think all cultures should be celebrated thats what makes our country great!
When that girl was raped and left for dead & she tried expressing what had happened to her & how bad it made her feel, do you know how some people responded to that they said it didnt make her special, I met her at the Vagina Monologues, her theatre performance was real & true to women in violence. I think its how people over come there struggles that makes them special.
I use to live near Walmart corporate head quaters & they have this hidden motto, not in my backyard. It seems Ive been to everyones back yard, when i come I plant a tree so to speak.
There is a saying guys say that I thought was funny 'pretty doesnt mean much when you are a b*tch', I dont know why women have to be so cattie.
So sorry me typing with one hand doesnt impress you, with friends like that who would need enemies, feel sorry for some of your friends if being negative & mean spirited is cool. Its the good qualities that people say about me in real life real time, nothing Ive said about myself.
Its nice to have people come up & say they could never say a bad thing about me, it goes along way if its people I admire. I like seeing others happy & doing well! If there is something I can help with I am all for it.
too sandy for me.

I think l was leary of people I met when I first lived there because there was not anyone of color, the town square had something about the South, I heard so many things. I worked at a tanning salon at the time in a yuppy town. It seems when people where talking about immigration I was over hearing what buisness owners where discussing if they would hire illegal immigrants, that is there buisness. My motto people have to start somewhere.
I thought to give the blue collar scenerio it was more to address the class issue. I think if people work hard no matter how rich or poor they should enjoy what they have & do with it what they will, if its doing good then there is no wrong in that. Every contribution counts no matter how big or small, if its monetary or through back breaking work.
you speak nonsense.
and can't spell.

What ever the case may be it wasnt directed towards you so I dont know why you would be so concerned? Someone implied that he baught me. If I go fishing its at the pond, & there is a really cool catfish farm not to far from here. I was just bored, the cast comes off next wednesday no more motorcycles for me. Swoon come on please, anything would be good other than conden-send-ing and not nice. Tell me some good things about yourself? Can you decorate? When your friend is having a bad day do you uplift them? I would hope so!
most words DON'T HAVE HYPHENS IN THEM. and baught isn't a word at all.
My Shopping Blog
It's Con-de-scend-ing, or condescending.
And, I'm aware it wasn't directed at me, or anyone else for that matter. Throwing out this information has no purpose other then seeing what response you will receive. A lot of the information that you have decided to add doesn't have anything to do with your original post, or anything else for that matter. What exactly are you looking for, other then posting it and seeing what people say?
People have only been responding to your need to put useless, unnecessary, random information in all of your responses. It's been coming across as "look at me and what I have in my life". So, if you aren't ego boosting, and having fun with creating drama, then what are you looking for? What advice/responses are you wanting?
you speak nonsense.
and can't spell.
~Then you live there. So I have my own stereotypes to overcome. Just because people live in the South doesnt mean they are prejudice. If all you can do is nit pick, then pick on. There are so many people who are adults that have literacy problems, why not take some time out & help at your local literacy center & lend a helping hand.
I try so hard not to point out constantly how people are flawed. That my dear is what makes us different. There is someone i know that even my son has to help spell the most simple things you can think of & he exhibits more compassion and patience. Actually I think this would be a neat thing for you to check into, its a fun job! http://www.oxfordseminars.com/
I think you would like teaching English over seas, the travel is good! They are in high demand. Shut up & live.
Then in that case your response is loook at me im being a jerk, I dont feel like being too rude back to be honest. Im not being as personal in attacking people. Again if you had a bad day dont take it out on me. DK this was my post your responding, I was just commenting on race relations & class issues that go on in the family in general. I dont need a deflate, its hard to disarm arguments when people are so wanting to argue about what I have no clue. I get out of animal chores & yard stuff til next week so its a holiday !
You doth protest too much.
Your FI is a douche your future MIL is a racist and your are willing to subject your children to such nonsense. "Queer rights"? Sister you're no prise yourself. Come to think of it - you three probably deserve each other.
Hope to heaven this is MUD.
After reading the rest of the thread I would like to amend my comment to...
Liar, liar pants on fire!
who are you calling a cootie queen, you lint licker!!

FYI, I have plenty of friends that are for & against immigration laws thats there buisness. So that deems them as rascist if they are for it, Im not for it myself yet it deems me as whatever you are implying. No I dont subject my children to such things one of his godparents is one of the main advocates for a state, fairy wings in all. If someone is gay that is their buisness dont want my kid to be homophobic. We do murals. Im not your sister. I said I only see that lady a few times a year. Seriously his family has thier own cell phone, I never answer it.
My son learns world history & cultural experiences 1st hand, and has been introduced to alot of different things when I was working in Anthropology & Archeology mainly on society structures.
I dont see where name calling is relevant and being so mean & spiteful is. No wander why people as a whole will never witness progress. I cant wait to go to Sanfran to see my old art friend who happens to have AIDS & do alot of work in the Latino communty. He took me to an actual Day of the Dead ceremony which was a great honor the one he took me to they rarely let outsiders come to.
So yes my son my finace & I do deserve each other the three of us, Im so glad we spend our time trying to figure out different prototypes on cars that run on water making these things affordable, recycling old cars.
If I express that I did address some issues even with my own family, & friends I dont see why I am the bad guy. I feel like Im caught in the middle sometimes. I cant justify what other people do, you are responsible for your own actions.
See, this I understand. Sad, I know, but true.

OK dont get it

must be some kind of inside joke, cootie queen lint licker never heard that before you learn something new everyday.
when i first read it with my dyslexia lint licker had a new meaning.
Haha, okay, and your point with all of this is?... I love how you keep taking people's responses and adding more to your fabricated stories. I don't know you, but your statements keep getting more and more over the top. What are you trying to prove?
And people making things personal? Who's post is this again? Who keeps throwing out nonsense and being confused as to why they are getting the responses they are getting? You keep saying that you aren't arguing anything, but you definitely are. If you didn't feel that you needed to prove something, whatever it is, you wouldn't keep responding. BTW, you have not answered my questions about what you are looking for in terms of advice/responses. Also, "look at me being a jerk?" Did I mention myself in all of that? Nope, only was pointing out what you are doing, and apparently hit a sensitive spot that you didn't want to deal with.
Bad day? I had an awesome day! Taking it out on you? Nope. Speaking honestly? Yep.
I Love this commercial!! And that's the only thing I have left to add to this thread.
Actually Im sitting at the computer editing some footage. I dont know why you say its fabricated? Well it seems some for you think I should prove something, why no clue. I was commenting on race & class relations & wanted to know if people would ever get along? No I just dont know why some people feel like its there job to snicker (wish I could have a candy bar).
I reserve the right to say you know thats not cool thats kind of whacked, but I dont crucify people for saying that to me. Its like some people want to get some kind of rise & no matter how I respond things are taken out of context & loose the true meaning. So truthful yes.
Or maybe people are like man I wish the person I was with would buy me a MINI, or I wish the person I was with was a multi millionaire, things like that dont impress me. Good people do. I may have spent some of my childhood in the ghetto, but Im not ghetto nor do I have that mantality. I think black folks call that triffl'n.
Really? Because if I do recall, you were the one who found it necessary to tell everyone these things. Get a grip, and get off your high horse. People taking your responses out of context and twisting them? I think you have proven that you are the master of doing that. No matter what anyone says, you respond with some sort of useless information. Fabricated? You betchya. Anyone that wasn't trying to prove anything would not have went to the lengths you have in trying to explain themselves.
Have fun night in your fantasy world, because I'm spending mine with my real fairy tale.
wrong on all accounts.

Wow, xiolablue coffee, you are quite full of yourself, aren't you? You are very passive aggressive. You want to act like you aren't arguing points with PPs, yet you rebuttal with these outlandish claims of everything you have in your life. Anybody that feels they have that much to prove, actually doesn't have anything. So, by continuing to push, what you have, who you know, what you are surrounded by, you are only proving even more what you don't have.
This is an internet board, and whoever you are, whatever you have, and whoever you know does not matter. You can say anything you want and no one is going to be any wiser. If I wanted to tell you that I own 3 homes, drive an expensive car, have traveled around the world, and a billion dollars, who's to say I'm wrong? But, who's to say I'm right? No one needs to know these things, and simply by presenting them makes it very difficult to believe that you actually have done/seen/have all of these things. We just don't care.
People where being so disrespectful, & acting like I held some of those horrible views. Being overly critical just as you are now. I take critiques but I think constructive is good. I dont see how passing judgement on someone is practical when its so harsh & extreme based on a post and is passing judgement on how others pass judgement hipocritcal. If I dont like what some people say or doing in real life I just dont go around it, If I have to be around it I address it. I dont incite arguments, or belittle the person I have a disagreement with but reserve the right to respond sarcasticallly when other do.
I think you learn more from people you disagree with. Of course not everyones life is peaches & cream if I thought so it would be a fantasy world.
If I could delete this post I would, because I wasnt looking for negative feedbacks that rested on some immature issues like name calling and all those other things, everyones a know it all I never said why yes I know everything. At least I admit it. Some people sound as closed minded as some of the things I had to address. If I had to address it once with the people directly involved that should be enough. I shouldnt have addressed it all.
If I walked around like every societal ill was my problem, its ok to say its not my problem everyonce in while. Personally people can only do so much. That is a reality.
Passive agressive no, thats more of the behavior I have witnessed or maybe reflecting some of those assumptions. . I think people are full of themselves if they are so brave to put people down via internet. Sorry like I have no need to do so. Thats what they have, I have a life that people cant buy, I do not rest importance on Monetary it seems others do. I drive things that I can put a canoe on & put the dog in the back to me that is complete.
I spoke with a Latino friend & I asked them if people where for immigration laws does that make them rascist, they said not neccesssariily. We agreed that It would probably promotes racial profiling though.
Yeah, everybody, cut her some slack! She doesn't hold those horrible views -- it's the man she's going to marry and have children with who holds those horrible views!
