the eternal

Agreed. All these women look like stupid nasty trash. Throw them and their idiotic men on an island, and have Paris Hilton be their queen

Happy Birthday!

Talking about incompetence, this is our lawyer--- There's an understatement. Lawyer said to sign this and that and protest later. Apparently, the court doesn't work that way. Now I'm committed to paying almost my entire paycheck, because my lawyer's an idiot. I'm working 55 hours/week at a job I no longer like, with a shitty boss and stupid co-workers, and I'll be making sweat shop wages indefinitely. How do you survive on $2/hour? How do you pay for for $200/week camp or $200/month utilities? And if I quit my job and give plasma, (which would be a net gain in income) I'm told that I will never get to see someone very important to me ever again. I don't know what to do.

I'll be double-posting. I would PM this person, but I'd rather broadcast my incompetence, to clarify for all future people--- I NEVER drop any friends from DGN, primarily because I don't know how to drop or add friends, nor care to go to my messages or my assistant or whatever, to figure it out. There is literally no one on this board I hate (though I do at a few) As a matter of fact, the people that I disagree with the most on this board, like in the Politics section, are among my favorite DGNers personally

1. I used to post a lot. 2. I speak in paragraphs. Although, there are people who have thousands more posts than I do, no one has wasted more characters than me. 3. I fucking hate when shallow people say they are completely open, and warn you that they will blow you away when the most soul-baring thing they've ever said is "I like toast" or something "shocking" like "I have a snake tattoo because I like to bite" Oooh scary. 4. I don't believe marriage is a bond between one man and one woman, but I do believe that the definition of being gay is one man liking another man or one woman liking another woman 5. If you were wondering, the definition of a woman who likes women AND men is this: you are not gay, you are not lesbian, you are bisexual. (And when you proclaim your ability to act as such, you are not really shocking anyone at this point-- not on this board, at least) 6. I find it fascinating that in this culture we celebrate women loving women, or even women loving men BUT fucking women, AND YET we are still absolutely freaked out by bi-curiosity among men. 7. I am a hypocrite, since I love hugging women and listening to their feelings, but usually are uncomfortable doing either with men (though there ARE notable exceptions) 8. I am not comfortable around tough, guarded women. If you can't let your guard down, we may not get along. 9. If you like hugs, expect big "energy hugs" from me, which are different from the half-hearted bullshit "I look like I'm hugging you, but am actually looking past you to the person's ass 10 feet in back of you" hugs in that my hugs involve two hands, two arms, and a warm embrace 10. I like quotation marks. 11. Um, hai. Unless ur bein a lolcat, use sentences and spell check. You learned to capitalize your Is in the first grade. Now's not the time to go back and become Billy Madison. Oh, and how are we really supposed to take you seriously, when you don't even take the time to spell "sreusly" right? Seriously. 12. Oh, and can we make just a little effort with grammar. You don't even have to get it right. Just try. If I talked the way some people type on here, I'd shoot myself. 13. I'm feeling bitter tonight. 14. Every time someone answers the question "What kind of music do you like?" WITH "I like everything" they are really trying to say "I have unbelievably shitty taste in music" 15. Don't ask me what radio station I listen to. I can't listen to more than three songs on any given station without attempting to smash my car into a wall. 16. I am a hypocrite again, since I listen to NPR every morning and secretly dream that for one day, every person's voice would sound like Terry Gross. Now THAT would truly be a breath of fresh air. 17. I love bed. 18. If I come to your house/apt I have one rule: Keep Diet Coke stocked, or warn me ahead of time, so I can bring my own. It is a love that has sustained me, and will never die. 19. bean water's love sustains me now (though it has not replaced diet coke, rather it has simply relegated diet coke to a complementary role) 20. I have an unhealthy relationship with food, and if not for a good metabolism I would be 500 pounds. 21. I always feel at least 50 lbs fatter than I am. 22. I often think of developing an drinking problem/gambling problem/drug addiction so then when people ask why I'm such a failure, I can blame it on that, the way others do. 23. I have low self-esteem. It will not change, but humor can lighten it. 24. I once thought about being a stand-up comic, since most of them seem to be cynical, bitter self-loathing people who decided to use humor as therapy. 25. One reason I hate stupid people who think they're so "different" or "shocking" is that I actually AM open and make people uncomfortable with my self-disclosures or critical observations of them. I won't tell you you're an asshole. That's too easy. You can shrug it off. I will tell you EXACTLY what I think is wrong with you, and you will either hug me and thank me for my honesty or want to punch me in the stomach. 26. I don't remember the last time I talked to my family. 27. I know I'm better without them, but it still hurts me how easy it was for them to let go of me. 28. I made one of the best decisions of my life last year in forming a union with bean. 29. My ex has made it her mission to make my life a living hell ever since. ...And she's winning. 30. I don't believe in hell, but I do believe in the devil. I know where she lives. I can point it out to you on Google Earth. 31. It's painful to hear how smart people think I am, since it just reminds me how little I've made of my life, and how the stupid people will always run this planet and make more money than me. 32. Tell me I have a nice ass instead. 33. Be sure to have a good health care provider before you do that though, as bean is very protective and will kick yours if she hears you say it. 34. I have absolutely no ability to control my feelings or keep from expressing them. I wish I could, but it's futile to start now. 35. I have been hurt a lot because of that, and everyone can sense my insecurity, and most people make fun of me or take advantage of me, feeling there will be no repercussions. 36. My abusive boss was mighty surprised when he almost got fired when said repercussions involved me going to my HR director after he threatened my life on a regular basis. 37. I am not a physically threatening figure, yet somehow, all my bosses have been threatened by my ability to know when they are full of shit and question them. 38. I find it stifling that the politics of most of the people who express their views on this board is libertarian. Social justice, gay rights, freedom of/from religion. AND Economic Darwinism. No taxes. No welfare. No safety net. I'd love to take a moment and ask all the Ayn Rands on this board to: never listen to NPR, don't go to school, don't drive on the roads, kick your grandparents off social security and Medicare, tell all the fired autoworkers that their pussies for collecting unemployment, and ah yes, go fuck yourself, since you can't get through one day without enjoying the benefits of this "socialist" society 39. That the irony is, I personally like most of the people I'm referring to in 38. And I secretly admire them for having the balls to make a point (even if I don't agree with it, or find it fatally flawed) 40. What I really hate, are: People that don't have an opinion at all. They, of the mindset of the Goth Ostrich. Always putting their heads in the sand because of the pointlessness of humanity. "Oh everything's fucked, so do nothing" I think we're all fucked too, and I hate myself, but I still try to change things, because I know change can only come when you fight for it. More people I hate: People who agree with EVERYTHING. Every opinion gets a and a . BULLSHIT! I allow that behavior in one person, and that's ONLY because I believe that it's actually his individual personalities agreeing with each poster's opinion and if all his personalities were in a room together they'd fight to the death. I also hate: People who are fake. Tell me how you feel. It's just going to piss me off more when I find out the truth later. AND I leave a special place in my ass for------- Young people who think they are sooo different I'm talking to you. Lean in closer. Now look up. Over there. NO. There. Look at that woman. No, not the one with Manic Panic mohawk and the barbed wire tattoo. That one. RIGHT THERE. With the short dark hair. And the two kids tugging at her skirt. Yeah, her. Last weekend, she was being suspended by two fish hooks and whipped with catofnine tails. Last month, she was having a threesome with the pastor's wife and the bagger in aisle 10 in Kroger's. You know the cute innocent one who alsways says "please" and "ma'am" while he's carefully making sure the eggs don't get crushed by the grade A, choice cuts of round, blood red meat. He was singing a different tune with a leather mask and handcuffs Last year, she was in a shelter for battered women. Five years ago, she had her hair dyed in five different colors, played bass in a band named Plasticne Pussy and was dating the middle man heroin dealer. Not the main guy of course. She could never get that lucky. Always with the mediocre choice, the almost there. The guy that would take the drugs from the house downtown and bring it to the kids in Troy and Birmingham and Franklin so the Preppy jocks could have a totally kickass party with the pompom girls (because everyone know they are the real sluts--not those snotty cheerleaders) A party not seen the likes of since Nickelback burst on to the scene giving lame people everywhere a reason to open a Natty Light. The same guy who gave said woman the two kids and put them in the shelter that they gleefully left after he was put away and who are now pulling on her skirt. LOOK! We've been there. We've cut that. We've whipped him. We've OD'd on that. We've watched our friend die from that thing you just found out about, because you're the first one ever to try it--- EVER. Get over yourselves. I'm no one special. I know that. It's just that you're not either. And one day I hope that you will figure that out. Then we can be friends. I may even give you a hug.

That's beautiful (even if it is expressing personal pain) I hope things get better for you. I feel like the only place where there is bad prose is in the Your Creations section I feel that it's so ironic that with all the Sunday shows warning about the devil and his whereabouts, that if anyone wanted to take a moment and ask a dorky Jew, I could point them to EXACTLY where her lair is, right now!

I did. I'm way too tired to do a full list, but I'll say that, as an affection junkie, I loved all the hugs and great people I got to see. The music was pretty good too and they even played all our requests, which is a first. Special thanks to the DJ that played Phee's request of Ministry Thieves. Everyone but Phee and I hated it. Note to DJs: play that one before last call. It'll clear the floor faster than any of the slow shit played in the past.

Sorry to hear that. I like seeing people in quieter, more subdued settings too, but I'll keep going to City as well. It's fun in ad ifferent way than DGN functions.

All of my sensitivity has come from Qantas travel promos, Kung Fu Panda, and Coca Cola ads, so I'm probably unfairly biased on this subject. That said, I do hope the woman made it through okay, and gets the help she needs. In the meantime, go rent "Grizzly Man" It's a doc about a man who thought he was a kindred spirit to grizzly bears, until one said spirit ate him and his girlfriend for lunch.

I am so scared. I just maxed out another credit card. It doesn't seem to matter how much my income goes down, the same fucking amount gets taken out of my check. Can someone please tell me and the court how I'm supposed to take care of utilities, and food, and medicine, and everything else on $10,000/yr???

Any time. Glad to help

Then it's a good thing you are typing and not speaking. I find that talking while biting your tongue can be quite difficult to do.

FIXED

Troy, I'm sorry someone betrayed your confidence. Know that we care about you. Sometimes people can just be insensitive, but don't let it lose your faith in people. We're all we've got

Ah yes. The swastika. With a Star of David. It's always brought a good deal of peace, luck, and prosperity for my people Just look at all the PROSPERITY here NOT TO MENTION--freedom

Why tell people that when you can just give them the gift of Sybian. Sybian. Let the people you love go fuck themselves over and over again Brenda, you've got a lot of shit going on at once. Many of us here think you're wonderful. I think some of us would like to be there, but are not sure what to say. As for me, I just don't feel comfortable satisfying your needs, you know with Jeff and bean around and all.

I loved her first! Brenda's the best rollskate teacher an uncoordinated dork could ever have!

about to get ready for CC, hoping: A The music doesn't suck B Aequorea brings the jellyfish from her signature

Sleep, I have heard of this thing you normal humans call sleep. What is it like? Tell me all about it

The ring is so unique! You must be very happy. I think that's wonderful the way you are including your mom at your wedding.

bean and I just took them--- Considering our present state they're total bullshit, but at our best I suppose it's true HERE'S ME--- You Are Blissful You are passionate about life and thrilled with the world. You aren't just feeling good... you're feeling great. Happiness comes easily to you. You are a truly radiant person. People feel your warm, jubilant vibes. You truly make the world a happier place. And a better place too. What Kind of Happy Are You? Reading that seriously makes me want to buy a gun. Oh, and HERE'S BEAN You Are Engaged You feel completely absorbed and intrigued right now. You're cheerfully busy. You're alert and completely involved with everything you do. You don't walk through life half-asleep. If you're interested and engrossed, then you feel incredibly happy. You are constantly curious and never bored. There's too much to be fascinated with! What Kind of Happy Are You?

Me- No words at this point. I think I've said enough for awhile. It's not as fun as it sounds. Trust me! Besides you need to work your way up to that. Start with playing this and see where it goes Here you go---

I find it interesting that the people on here who say they suck, are among the least of the board's offenders. There was one DGNer, who shall remain unnamed, who was so absolutely, comically, ridiculously awful, that I started looking forward to his posts. bean and I would be on the lookout for his classic musings He only posts occassionally now, but for some reason, he went away completely for awhile and when he returned, his posts were almost devoid of errors, and I have to admit, it mayd mee mis teh oled days wehnhee youset ah spel liek theisss.

That's wonderful! I'm really happy for you two.
