over 4000 posts in one year. I bet you would be grateful for some sunlite or fresh air.
Go to the range, blast a few hundred rounds and enjoy the smell of burnt powder, the glimmer of the sun thru a cloud of gunsmoke and the soft shimmering heat off of a slowly cooling rifle barrel. OHHHHH, I am getting a stiffy I better quit. Two weeks ago some phucking 50y/o drunk woman slammed head-on into my 16y/o daughters car at 4 in the afternoon, totaled both cars and gave herself a serious/permanent brain injury. My daughter is stiff and sore and has a few weeks of PT to get straightened out. But she is otherwise fine. Thank you God I spent a Christmas at Basic, a Christmas overseas, A Christmas alone after my son died of cancer, a Christmas eve in a bar with lonely drunks. Things these days are pretty damn nice. I have learned to never say, "how much worse can it get?" because it can get lots worse. You are in the best country in the world, where they keep the best looking women and the coolest guns. AND they keep them next to the fastest cars and motorcycles. I have been to the third world several times. Your worst day is a wet dream for the rest of the world. |

......that Colonel Franks made it all the way to 4 stars. When I saw his picture in the paper, I took it to everybody at work, sayin' "You know that 'Col Franks' I keep tellin' stories about? THIS IS HIM! I used to work for this MF!" I was as proud of him as if he were my old man. I'm thankful he's runnin' sh*t, 'cause he always looked out for the guys who served under him.

I am thankful for my wife and new daughter, that we have a life together, that my family and friends survived 9-11, and that our nation is stronger now than it was before. That the American people showed what they arre made of through this crisis.

Quoted: Thank you for you input Mr. Ad Hominem. So there is any other way to debate someone who says "I have nothing for which to be thankful" than to argue against their personality? If so, I can't think of it. You're devastatingly pessimistic in every post you make, you take the most incredibly negative view of every situation and you can't see a silver lining without looking for the dark cloud. I don't know you in real life and frankly don't want to, but that is 100% how you come across in your posts. |

I am thankful that my nephew is alive and was able to celebrate Thanksgiving with his family today. He missed a curve night before last on a dark country road, flipped his pickup into a creek, was trapped in the upside-down cab of the truck, totally submerged, and managed to kick the door open and swim out. If that isn't something to be thankful for...I don't know what is. Thank you, God!

Imbroglio, you may not have any womenz, but at least you didn't lose your girlfriend the day before Thanksgiving. I did. My whole day sucked! The only thing I could think of to be thankful for is my X and I are still friends. Christmas is going to be a bitch! I need to find someone quick.

You can't think of a single thing to be thankful for?
How about your miserable ass not being in the WTC or the Pentagon or on one of the 9-11 flights that crashed? You have thousands of sunrises and sunsets that thousands of people had stolen from them! How about the fact that there are strangers (firemen and policemen and EMS) that would crawl through a disaster area with only the slightest hope that they might be able to pull you out alive... or would continue to do so if for no other reason than to make sure your family could have peace of mind in laying you to rest properly. How about for the freedom to spew the garbage that comes out of your mouth and annoys the living shit out of the rest of us. How about the fact that you are doing well enough to be able to afford a computer and Internet access when so many others couldn't even hope for a meal while the rest of us feasted today. How about the fact that the you didn't lose the woman who was the love of your life five days before the holiday. Went through a couple of cancer scares with and was prepared to marry even though the prospect of losing her at any time was real, because it would be better to have her for six months than to not have her at all. How about you shut the hell up you miserable excuse for a human being. |

*rereading MY post* Nope, didn't wish your death anywhere... Did tell you to go to hell, but we're all going to die anyway at some time, I'm sure the other wretches can wait for you... no mad rush to hades just yet...
As far as calling you miserable... well maybe those words hit home and you're getting defensive because you know they are true. Take a good hard look in the mirror someday, might do you some good! |
