Quoted: I hear you! I was raised by my grandfather so I got the pin dropped when I said It was colder than a witches tit on a fast broom. I was in the 2nd grade and had no idea what it meant. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: When our daughter was 7 or 8, my wife and I got a call from the principal of our daughters school. She and the teacher wanted to see us about some horrible thing our daughter had said to another girl. The four of us sit down in the office and the teacher says, "Do you know what your daughter said today?" "No, that's why we're here." "She asked a little girl if her face hurt. When the girl said no your daughter said 'Well, it's killing me.' <--- me "Yeah?" "Do you know where she heard that?" "Yeah, from me. I tell her that all the time." Much ado about nothing. I was in 6th grade and it was raining hard at school one day. So they canceled PE class. There was 3 classes that they would separate with dividers for different subjects throughout the day. But PE was the one thing that we did all together. So instead of PE the teachers decided to ask us what were some popular sayings. Not knowing any better, I raised my hand and was called. I said "It's raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock"..............pin drop I was not called on anymore. Things you pickup from your Dad I guess should stay between you and Dad.

When someone close to me lets others take advantage of them, over and over, I start to not care and actually get angry with them.

Quoted:
I was in a 3+ year relationship with a girl and it eventually went bad. Really bad. She became what I can only describe as verbally or mentally or emotionally abusive. She would do and say anything and everything she could to get under my skin and upset me. Highlights include Telling me i should kill myself (several times and by the way my dad did kill himself...in front of me when I was 8 and she is aware of this) Telling me she is going to go fuck random guys. On and on other stuff the most vile and horrible things you could say to someone. Why did it last 3 years? Because I'm an idiot. I believed in trying to fix things and get her help. I researched alcoholism and potential drug abuse as possible causes. Begged pleaded tried everything I could to get her to go back to the nice girl I first met. None of it worked. So I ejected. She was a member here and I am told posted some pretty interesting threads while I was overseas and unable to view them. Why am I posting this here? She emailed me the other day (despite my multiple requests for her to stop contacting me) and informed me that she has breast cancer. Here's the part where I am taking advantage of the no judging. I do feel sorry for her and fuck cancer. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. That said, karma's a bitch. Good on you for not wishing cancer on her. She will have to answer for her transgressions, but that doesnt mean you cant be a better person. Glad you didn't take her advice, and glad you are out of the relationship. Sounds like you are better off. Oh definitely in a better position now. The shit she put me through wrecked my brain for a while. Ended up costing me a job. Sent me into bankruptcy.

Life is good. Nice recovery man. I remember that chick and at least one of her crazy threads she started. Do you think she honestly has cancer or it's another sad attempt to screw with you? From what you said and her thread I saw, I'd venture to guess it's the later. |

I sometimes think of getting out of tactical guns entirely and ignoring the politics of it so that I can just go back to blissfully enjoying life, rather that worrying every day will be the day that it all comes unglued and I'm officially labeled an enemy of the state. I could concentrate on weight lifting and playing in my band and working on my company, and not have a constant rain cloud over my head.

It does start to wear on a person who sees all of the constant daily attacks on our personal freedoms. It is literally something else every single day, and you always have that fear that another "big one" is going to happen as far as a mass shooting at a school or something, and it will be "the one" to push things over the edge.

Quoted: I wish I could go back as a kid and unlearn a bunch of shit. Than I could just go through life blissfully ignorant. No shit. Somedays I really do. Ed View Quote A couple days ago, when I was walking my dag, I smelled something good, but not something that others would say smelled good. It had a scent of deja vu. I realized it was a pecan tree. As an anklebiter, there was a pecan tree in my backyard. I spent many hours of the day playing in the dirt and on top of the old cellar next to that tree. Rain made it smell even better back there. Then I thought "What are the other smells of my childhood?". At that time, my parents, who were smokers, were fixing up a neighboring house before we moved into it. Until recently, I kinda liked the lingering after-scent of secondhand smoke. Pine always smells good, but, especially when combined with cigarette smoke, it hits me in the feels. |

You can do it Tim, engage her in small talk a few times, if she's receptive ask her out for a coffee/ice tea or something. As Billy said you can do it, it's easy to spot if a girl doesn't like you & is filled with contempt. If she's talking to you & smiling, finding excuses to touch your arm or hand ever-so-lightly you are GTG my friend.

You gotta take time for you. I do something I like to do at least every couple of weeks. I may go shooting, driving around the countryside, go to a few garage sales, or sit around doing absolutely nothing productive. I make time to do what I want to do.
