Awwkk!
I second that!
Fnarb!
Glurk!
And Fladladladladladl! for good measure.
Hey Paddy,
I say being an errand boyfor DEB-Bile has to be one of the worst jobs you could have.
rabbit -
Whatt Shoveler at the Little Shack of Horrors has to be worse.
I'm just sayin'
Dudes, dudettes, and dudarinos!
I have to go to bed now so I can pick my mom up from the airport at 3AM, so have shot of teh WTF vodka™ for me!
Also, welcome Beau and Filch! We're all still havin' fun, ain't we?
Rabbit,
I truly don't understand your post. Would you please clarify so I don't inadvertantly take it the wrong way?
Thanks.
Aw man! I finally catch up on the posts, and you're leaving? Who's going to play dueling avatars with me now?
Brenda,
I left a last message for you at the end o' the last thread.
And Day-ummm DHD'ers! Vodka:Thirty really stirred up a hornets nest today with the link to AbbeyWeb!
yoda -
It's amazing how many people think they can mimic us. They really believe a few misspelled words and a 'gun rack in the truck' will do it.
T'aint no edumacation down hereabouts.
Paddy, I didn't mean you,Paddy, personally. I mean anybody. When I started writing, you & I were the only two here. We left DEB-bile's errand boys on the last thread.
BK:
Shoveling teh whatt is part of their job & they gave us a fine demo of it.
paddy -
Regional differences or not, I will defend y'all (and the correct damn spelling) to the death!
Don't tread on teh y'all!
(My family is texan, arkansan and alabaman -- tempered by a life growing up military)
She's got 29 comments up now.
Hey there Hawksp
Rabbit: Thanks for the clarification. Beaudisregard got me riled up.
Brenda: I spent a good part of my growin' up years in the south. The regional accents that I grew up with come back pretty quickly. I won't try to mimic any others - it's just disrespectful.
Thanks Yoda.
I've been laughing all day.
Dude:
Sorry I gotta go to bed, but Mom's bringin' back a lot of souvenirs and they need thunder thighs over here to be there mule.
Arggh!
their mule.
Dude - alrighty, shoot. Give Mom a hug for me.
So I guess the post I put up about how attorneys interested in this case have been lurking at my site...which has listed what Deb has done...really hasn't meant a Gdamn thing to her, and she thinks sending in the clowns is supposed to help. Damn...
I wonder who she will blame for her evil deeds next?
I guess it will be Blogger for allowing this and other blogs to post about her.
no...wait...she tried that already.
Hawksp - Google Images, look up bald eagles...tons of them.
paddy -
I don't mind a good natured ribbing, and I'll give the same. I just didn't much like beau-peeping and still think he was a fake.
I make no apologies for my first post to the jackass, nor my follow-up post at the bottom of the thread
Hose - Hey there.
To paraphrase (mostly for BrendaK's benefit) Danson from "Clone Wars"
Must type faster! Must type faster!
NOBODY is rude to a lady in my presence. Especially one from my personal stable.
She likes to move her posts around, fighting off the voices that are telling her to blog. I'm telling you, it's a dope addict ritual she's doing.
Brenda,
I don't blame you. I just want you to know that any dialect I adopt is an honest one, borne of experience.
I could use a bowl of field peas, some cornbread, collards, and sweet tea about now - that or a little something from a mason jar.
She admitted to tequila and meth induced posts in one of them. I harken back to one of my first posts here where I said she sounded like a meth head e.g. my ex-wife
Brenda, Paddy, Yoda - I can't say I spent much time in the South. Closest I got was when I did my grad school at UVA in Charlottesville. Except for the very southern gentleman barber who cut my hair, C'ville was more college town that southern town.
Hawksp - the working theory is that she's trying to hide more culpatory posts from prying eyes.
paddy -
I would never think poorly of you! Or suspect you of being a poseur.
You are my brownie connection.
"Howdy. Name's Hosedragger, and this here's the main filly in mah herd."
You've more than earned your spurs, cowboy. My hat's off to you.
All y'all are hilarious, profound, and better looking than the national average. I'm honored to be allowed to associate with you, and you rarely mention the humpback or the pronounced limp.
Nine Forty. SANCTUARY!
And Hose is our knight-at-arms.
the working theory is that she's trying to hide more culpatory posts from prying eyes.
too late. screenshots of the more incriminating language at SWP are already in the hands of the Goldsteins' attorney.
One law Deb cannot violate with impunity is gravity, and she's about at terminal velocity.
Sorry Meriones unguiculatus for stirring the pot.
The thought that someone actually believed they could post on a listserv and throw some half-assed language on the bottom to protect it caused a small embolism in my carotid and thus prevented proper (although temporary) perfusion to my cerebral cortex.
I'm better now.
cdr dtw,
Glad you're here on the front lines of cyberspace.
Our thoughts and prayers will certainly go with you as well to the sandbox.
If anybody missed Barney Copperfield's comment near the end of the last thread, please go read it. Mr. Internet Tough Guy LOL
Yoda - thanks for that. UVa is where I learned how to drink bourbon at football games by sneaking it past security with sandwich bags of it down my socks.
I guess you CAN learn something in academia that isn't just abstract theory.
Hawksp - do you have a picture editor that you can just downsize the pixels to make a smaller copy?
Thanks Sulla - appreciate that! I actually for this one - want to go out (retire) the right way.
Hawksp - you mean like this?
Well it's been an interesting night. Thanks for all the entertainment yous guys!
Got soccer and football games in the AM - opening day for both kids seasons.
Fight the good fight!
Convert the bitmap to jpg, and Blogger will support it.
'night barney
The thing is, we already have resident attorneys on staff with us. I am sure were we to be doing anything illegal, they would smack us around a bit. As they are for the same cause, I seriously doubt they would let us hang our collective asses out the window.
And speaking of attorneys...no this is not shameless self-promotion, go check out my latest post on the ol soapbox.
Hawksp - this one's more my speed, though.
Hose - as long we attribute the source, we can post under "fair use"
Hawksp - I see the change. Hit F5.
Hawk -
The eagle is teh hott®!
BrendaK - Look into these eyes...could you ever hurt poor widdle me?
cdr dtw,
I'm so glad to hear you say that; despite the Code Pink types, a lot of us believe this is a fight worth waging, and I'm so grateful to those who serve.
I love that we're not just taking it to the bad guys, but we're finding ways to help those purple-fingered people who are trying to build a country they can be proud of.
If you want to drop a line to armyofdavids@gmail.com with your contact info once you're there, we'll make sure you get hooked up with the beef jerkey of your choice, and a fine selection of reading material.
pet-mo -
Ooooh, whose a pretty baby? Kootchie-koo!
Believe me...I am not scared of anyone...especially Beau Beau, from that site. I meant in general about anything concerning this site. I'm pretty sure the attorneys are finding it a very valuable resource.
She just can't figure it out. And she STILL thinks that deleting posts that she either wrote herself, or allowed to be posted through her moderating the site, will protect her in any way shape or form.
I'm telling you, NOBODY I mean NOBODY can POSSIBLY be this stupid without the over use and abuse of illegal substances. I mean I'm talking about schedule 1 narcs.
This stuff is way beyond simple alcoholism. Trust me. I lived through it.
Hawk -
Also teh hott®!
Hawksp - teh Yay©
Another dueling avatars partner!
I like it, is that you running down the checklist of the helicopter?
Y'all,
I gotta go to bed.
At least I was able to stay up long enough to see the "Dudes" post in real time.
Take care & here's hoping for good Frisching tomorrow.
'night rabbit! Yep, 'tis a pity Joe and I are usually playing to a crowd of 2 or 3 when we get the avatars flying fast.
He and I need a better booking agent! LLOYDDDD!!!
Hose - when yer right, yer right.
The Hawk man...flyin the rotating birds. Outstanding
Hawksp - that's cool! Sounds like our military is getting better equipment at better cost than what we had in the '90s.
See...the evil Bushitlercochenyrovericeliburton Cartel is so cheap, they have to have equipment donated. If they really supported the troops, all the equipment would have been purchased by them way back in the 60's. It's a conspiricy. A c-o-n-...um...spiracy
Hose - the military industrial complex needs a better name...that's quite the mouthful.
Hose -
I dunno. She has no cultural references, no business sense, no concept of civility or civil discourse. She thinks help is criticism and criticism is justification for vileness that is actually criminal.
She could actually be that dumb. I think it's possible.
Oh, and speaking of conspiracies [shameless plug], read my latest blog entry!
Too much paranoia and coherence to be drunk, although at the rate sh is thinking I would almost bet a paycheck that she is a crankster-gangster..and she admitted as much in a post at AW.
I'm not saying she isn't that stupid. Lord knows I have never made that insinuation. I'm just saying that the whole thing is fueled by a little freebaseing washed down with the booze and a doobie to even her out.
Hawksp - put a president with an MBA in office, and red tape seems to melt away...hmmm...dat Bush is tew dum-bh
Hawksp - I was a lone dissenting voice in a sea of like-minded knee jerk liberalism in college and grad school.
You are obviously nothing but a freeper and a paid shill foe Bushitlercocheneyrovericeliburton.
Nothing you say is the truth. We know that the poor military are forced into murdering babies, cats and korans because of the needless stress brought about by being forced to use Civil War era muskets and running around in the underwear they had to have sent from home. I read it in the New York times. Why do you have to be such a racist? You homophobe. What a hater.
Hawksp - wasn't in the military, but I was a CNN newsjunkie my senior year of high school during the first Gulf War. After seeing what our military could do in realtime, it was a shame when Clinton came in and gutted it.
hawk -
I have no actual experience with people like that, I'll take your word for it.
Impeach Hawk. Hawk lied, Baby Buddah cried
Hose -
BWAHAHAHAHA
oh man...that was good.
pet-mo -
Clinton didn't just gut it directly. Many, many good and experienced military personnel left the service rather than serve with him as CIC.
The oath is to the office, but the man in the office makes all the difference.
Hawksp - Oh, and I was an avid reader of Clancy in high school, too, so par for the course with all the wiz-bang techno-jargon...it was all too cool.
I blame my Star Wars obsession, of course.
BrendaK - I remember all the retirings in the first 2 years of office. Where I was going to school for undergrad, the rich-kid libs were practically cheering that our military would be too inept to fight effectively in any future deployments.
Sickening.
hawk -
People who take drugs - like crank or crack or meth.
I have a deep, abiding and passionate hatred for those kinds of drugs and can't stand to be around anyone who uses them.
If only they were issued Remington 1100. Kerry would have issued them...and everyone would only have to serve 3 months, and get one medal for each month served.
Hawksp - yup, Rummie sure got the wheels spinning really fast when he got in.
BrendaK - that was Hose talking about personal experience with a user.
Brenda meant me Hawk
Hose - right, John "it's only a flesh wound" Kerry.
I wouldn't know drug use from psychosis because I don't know what to look for. If it is pointed out to me that someone is an addict, I don't feel any need to help them or direct them to help.
I just don't want to be anywhere near them. I don't feel compassion so much as disgust for the waste.
Of course that was before Kerry wouldn't have sent them.
Oops, I did mean hose.
Sorry, hawk, that must have been confusing!
Meth doesn't make you Teh Crazee...it amplifies and brings out hidden and underlying Teh Crazeeness
Without help and medicine on a continuing basis, it never gets better...only increasingly worse over time. The psychosis is permanent. The trouble with medication, though, is the patient will start feeling better..normal, so they stop medicating thinking they don't need it. Soon they start self-medicating again, and Teh Cycle starts over anew.
Hose - I hear what you're saying about Deb maybe being a user, but to me, I don't see it. She makes bad decisions, and exercises bad judgment because of a she's disconnected from the image of how another person might see those actions.
Joe had some good points the other night about the studies on teenagers' brains, how they weren't fully developed in the center of the brain where empathy rsides. Lack of empathy, really, is what cause a lot of a-hole behavior. The less developed your empathy, the bigger an a-hole you are.
Hawksp - thanks, sir.
And yep, dueling avatars takes some practice. Fast fingers, multiple browser tabs open, fast cut and paste, cropping. Totally gotta get your geek on for it.
Sorry, sorry, sorry all. I really do know the difference between a hawk and a hose. It was a slip of the brain-to-hand coordination.
BTW, I like the term 'libetardals.' Try it -- it rolls trippingly off the tongue.
whew, lots of typos in that last post. Sorry Hose.
"With chronic use, tolerance for methamphetamine can develop. In an effort to intensify the desired effects, users may take higher doses of the drug, take it more frequently, or change their method of drug intake. In some cases, abusers forego food and sleep while indulging in a form of binging known as a "run," injecting as much as a gram of the drug every 2 to 3 hours over several days until the user runs out of the drug or is too disorganized to continue. Chronic abuse can lead to psychotic behavior, characterized by intense paranoia, visual and auditory hallucinations, and out-of-control rages that can be coupled with extremely violent behavior.
Long-term effects can include:
Dependence and addiction psychosis
paranoia
hallucinations
mood disturbances
repetitive motor activity
Stroke
Weight loss "
Hawksp - about Yates, it was little more complicated, but yes, she was off her meds, but not because she felt better. She didn't like the side affects.
Yup. Going off the meds is especially common in the "bi Polar" crowd.
They have to be continually monitored and tested for Lithium levels in their blood. As soon as they feel better, they think they don't need the meds and are done with all the hassel, go off it and start Teh Cycle all over again.
Each succesive time, however, is generally worse.
Okay, now I'm really going to bed, but just had to say one thing about James' post about that Jones guy from BYU. He's the wanker that came up with cold fusion, which nobody could reproduce, and he never admitted his data was wrong. That's the number one reason not to listen to this guy. I hate that guy, and so does Caltech. Idiot.
Alright, physics hulk done smashing, hulk sit down, hulk go to sleep, zzzz...
Hose - she's generically near those meth user symptoms, but she's not there.
What she needs isn't "talking therapy", but a lot of hours of community service with hands on work with less fortunate people. Battered woman's shelter, homeless shelter, Special Olympics. Something to connect her to a broad range of people and in such close proximity that she can't just wish them away and not think about their humanity in connection with her own.
One of the major side effect of Lithium is hair loss, which can be pretty devastating for a woman.
Dude - "Hulk tired, Hulk sit down"
'night, again, dude.
Dude - shit, forgot about that! That is the same Jones that hoaxed us again with cold fusion.
Yay! Somebody reads my blog...even if he is family.
Sorry, but those people have done NOTHING in their lives to deserve associating with her. What she needs is a padded room to scream at the voices, and dry out. Then a nice job cleaning ditches on the side of the freeway wearing an orange jumpsuit and reflective vest, or maybe washing clothes.
g'night, joe. Sweet green dreams.
Hawsp - yes, Yates was someone who should have been under close care of a psychiatrist, not a woman having to care for 5 young kids.
Hose - it may be gratifying to know she is reduced to manual labor as punishment, but if she wants to get better, that would only fuel resentment and isolation. Working with a lot of people in a team environment where she would depend on people and people depend on her is the kind of constructive pressure that may actually develop her empathic ability.
hawk -
I thought the husband should have been in prison as well.
I can't believe the Bobsie Twins are bailing out.
Hawksp - cool avatar changing! See, just a little practice.
And Yates' husband, I think he bears some blame in the way their family life worked. It wasn't healthy, and she was isolated as a homemaker, and he really shoulda just stopped schtupping her. I mean, 5 kids in 5 years, wtf?
You make it sound like after falsly accusing me of murder and attempted murder as well as malpractice that I want to see her living outside a building that houses her with cement and bars ever again.
pet-mo -
Empathy is part of having a conscience, and you cannot grow a conscience. It is either there or not.
I think she could talk the empathy talk, but I also honestly do not think she could ever truly develop it.
Hose - nope, still here. Joe needs some zzzs though. Mom is bringing back goodies from Hawaii, so he needs to treat them...I mean...HER well!
Wait, I'm getting confused.
Pet - are you talking about Deb? Because I was.
Hawk - you are talking about Yates, right?
And Leo's getting laaaaaarger
BrendaK - If she can have people that actually call her friends, then it means something is there to grow. she needs to be forced out of her comfort zone.
Hawksp - Yes, about Yates, she was extremely isolated raising those kids. Having kids all around you doesn't mean you have peers all around you. "Loneliness of command" kind of thing.
Hose - naw, I know you're just exaggerating. I can see how manual labor could lead to humility.
BrendaK - talking about Yates with Hawksp, yep.
Uhm, ok:
Yates - knew what she was doing was wrong, chased one of her kids down. Should rot in prison.
Yates husband - knew there were serious problems and kept piling on. Insisted she homeschool and ordered her to keep having more/more/more kids. Should rot in prison.
Special Deb - no conscience, so no empathy development. But the orange suit she'll wear while picking up garbage on the roadside might shake her into at least keeping her mouth shut.
BrendaK - and talking about deb with you and Hose.
Must type faster! Must type faster!
Hawksp - Nope, no ownership in Hawaii, Mom was on vacation with friends. First time in a long time that she was on a vacation without Dad (both retired), so I think she really enjoyed it.
pet-mo -
Does Debbie have any friends, or just people she hasn't sufficiently alienated yet?
BrendaK and Hose - If Joe were here, he'd call me the softy Humanities major, so there ya go. I tend to give people more chances than I probably should...like Joe! Hah!
BrendaK - I was about to say an OTOH.
Her friends may not be human to her at all, either, but simply an extension of her personality, so perhaps, there is no empathy in friendships with her, but instead projected narcissism.
This comment has been removed by the author.
Hawksp - Hawaii is awesome. I haven't been back since '95, but man, that was the best vacation I ever had.
I think she should be locked away and all memoies of her erradicated from the planet.
Now, on that happy note, i am signing off. i gots better things to do than sit around here with the likes of youze guyz
Hose - Heh
G'night!
Good night all, I will see some, if not all of you darn gerbils tomorrow.
Have a wonderful nights rest,
And Brenda...next time someone treats you like that, you come and get me. Hosie don't play dat.
Hawksp - maybe "Nuts but organized"
hose -
Good night, sleep tight.
Time for me to trundle off to bed, too, I think.
It's been a while since I chatted with you all (yankee spelling), glad more people were around.
Night Hose, BrendaK, Hawksp, Paddy, and any other Lurky McLurkers!
This comment has been removed by the author.
And Hawksp - Aw, I was just giving you a practice round. Whenever you're ready, you let me know *heh*
Hawk -
Yes, I consider what she did nuts in the sense that "she's a total nutcase". I also think she met the legal definition of sane.
sbh - 'sokay. Edward Abbey does have the label of ecoterrorist attached to him, so any fans of his are going to be sensitive to that.
and hawksp - love the karaoke hamster, that's cool.
g'night!
Paddy -
My extremely limited exposure to addicts has been horrible, scary and looked more like madness than anything I could imagine. Your son sounds like a functioning and non-destructive person, and that is not the kind person I'm talking about.
It was never my intention to sound like I thought all drug users should be shot on sight.
And, hey, I ate the brownies, right?
nite hawk and pet.
You folks are hilarious. Seriously misguided but very funny. And Bendak I never claimed to be a southerner. I can't stand the south. What I am is a chap derived from a seriously long line of white trash. We hail from the Arkansas and Oklahoma areas and I too am a military brat so we have a lot in common. Except of course that I get quoted on the front page of this here site and call you on your sneering about the proper way to spell slang words. And you seem to coo a lot over all the big boys who hang here.
sbh -
You can use y'all. Everyone should use y'all. But no one should claim to be a Southerner and not be able to spell it correctly.
I just don't much care for liars, and I absolutely believe that troll-bo came on this site specifically to antagonize and was not truthful about his regional history.
Why anyone would lie about that kind of thing is beyond me, but there you go.
Beau wasn't lieing in any way shape or form. Geesh anyone who thinks they can derive regional dialects from written text on the internet has a serious screw loose.
filch -
It is so interesting that you hate an entire part of the country. Did we all make fun of you in high school, or what?
And yes, you bet I coo at them. I like and admire them. I also like and admire the women who are regulars here.
You caught me, absolutely.
Is anyone at all here but me and filch?
And I already told you sweetums in my house we spelt it yall. We didn't need no damn '. Course we never wrote the damn word down except when morons wondered what we were saying.
Sorry but it's not all about you dear. I hate the south for the same reason I hate the east: too much damn humidity. But you just keep thinking it's about you.
Brenda,
My oldest son takes a prescribed schedule II drug - a mixture of stereoisomers of amphetamine. He has ADHD and this drug allows him to stop and consider what is going on around him, rather than just reacting to it.
filch -
This one is just for YOU!
That would be lying and spelled.
There you go, no charge, glad to be of assistance.
Run along, hon, you are out of your league here.
I personally think it is all about Brenda.
And that's fine by me. (except when she says my brownies are "seedy")
Yes because I come here to practice my spelling. Thanks!!!
Paddy -
Whole different matter. I'm so glad that works for him. I've only known one person with ADHD and it was a such misery for him until he was old enough to take medicine.
It made a world of difference for him, too.
I was specifically talking about the people addicted to street drugs. I honestly wish I could find more compassion for them, but...it is a prejudice on my part.
That's okay Bendak your prejudices are hanging out all over the place.
New thread.
Props to James for his smackdown of Dr. Jones.
filch -
Really, if you are attempting to insult me you are fighting a losing battle. I would have to respect your opinion in order to be insulted by it.
Checking...checking...nope, no respect for you here.
Brenda,
I understand completely. It's just somewhat of a sore point with me.
A: Drugs are bad.
P: No they aren't
A: Yes, they are!
P: No, drugs gave my father-in-law another 7 years of life and allowed him to know another two of his grandkids.
A: That's not what I meant.
P: But that's what you said. If you didn't mean it - don't say it.
We need to separate use from abuse; good from bad; and it starts with language.
and what a loverly pair of prejudices they are, my dear.
sbh,
a gaelic lullaby sounds divine.
And thank you for your comment earlier. the posts were flying fast and furious and I ddidn't get a chance to say so earliere.
sbh,
Aye lassie!
