Yikes. That was yucky. Then again, there are greater ills going on in the world. Like vacuuming unborn babies out of the womb.

And there are plenty of people protesting that. However, the dogs have little to no chance at all.

Because that's a completely relevant point. Truly. I applaud you. :rolleyes:
I'll never understand the "Oh that sucks, but (insert favorite cause here) is more important (to me), so the (insert not favored cause here) doesn't matter" frame of mind.
Evil is evil. And no matter what you think of abortion, it is LEGAL. The slaughter, sale and consumption of dog meat, however, is not.
For the record, though, I don't have a particular problem with the eating of dog meat. I don't consider a dog's life to be any more valuable than those of the countless cows, pigs, chickens and other animals that we slaughter and eat in this country. However, I do object to the methods used to collect, transport and slaughter the dogs.

i don't see anything wrong with what she said ... dogs are no more sacred than cows or chickens or pigs. i think victoria's talking in more general terms than this case. obviously people's pets shouldn't be stolen from them ... but not every dog is a pet :shrug:

Did you not read the rest of my post? Or did you just not understand my reasoning?
I know that many of those dogs are pets. I'm not stupid. That's why I said that I object to the way the dogs are collected - meaning the stealing of family pets. But - AS I CLEARLY STATED - I don't find the killing and eating of dogs to be any worse than the killing and eating of cows, pigs, chickens, etc because I value the lives of all species equally.
And just as you abhor the idea of eating dogs because of your emotional attachment to that species, there are cultures who feel the same about many of the species our country exploits for food.

In other news, I agree with Vicky. If anyone took offense to what she said, I suggest they reread carefully. Naturally I am totally more grossed out by things that are common beloved household pets here in America being eaten. But that is a visceral rather than a logical response. It goes without saying that people's pets shouldn't be stolen. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, catdancer.
Speaking of logic, mylittledemon - you're a nice guy, but I think your logic and priorities here are questionable and perhaps...tragically knowledge underfunded?
Perhaps not, who am I to say? Nevertheless, it struck me as an odd opinion to express in this thread regarding this subject. It's like you jumped the "logical comparison" Grand Canyon, but didn't make it to the other side.
As an aside, maybe if less people were born, less people would need to, or want to, eat dogs.

Honestly, the dogs are more important to me than babies. :o
Babies grow up to be people. And people suck. Dogs are always cool, unless people tamper with them.
I realize some people might get pissed about me saying that or whatever, and I can appreciate that babies are important to people. But I don't like them; I will never like them; nothing can change my mind.
I'll sign the petition, and I'll pass it on to my friends in other communities. People who eat dogs are ****ing vile. Way more vile than people who eat chickens or cows. The capacity for pain may be the same for each and every animal, but the cognitive processes are not. Dogs are smarter than cows or chickens. They are a greater loss. That's my .02.

Yeah, what she said. I really don't have to clarify any further. I didn't make a link between the cognition of babies and dogs. Dogs are probably smarter, I mean, mine is... but, I didn't come out and say that until just now. ;)

I completely agree... the thin, long babies have a stringy type of meat, whereas the chubsters are much more thick, juicy, and tender. I especially like mine with glazed carrots and wild rice.

Ooh! A litter shower!! I like that -and our friends would totally go for that (provided we give them enough booze at the thing) :p
Not sure I could handle the dead baby jokes - as much as I dislike them and wish I could see less of them in public I don't like hearing of harm coming to them. I guess I don't hate ALL babies - but the minute it starts crying or oozing something unpleasant get it the hell away from me.

I was, thinking outloud, as I am often wont to do on these forums. But a woman hater? I am, of course, not one. I harbor no disdain for women, nor have I ever.

lol, I had that reasoning in response to someone who'd said something about dogs and cows and whatever else being equal. I can see that to some people they might be, but I don't consider them equal game for eating at all. The babies had nothing to do with it really, because most people don't eat babies. Except Deanna, Carrie, and I. But that's probably just because homos are evil and a threat to society as a whole............. :laugh:
Yes, please don't buy me a baby. But if I ever am "gifted" with immaculate conception, I would be willing to accept a trade for a dog. Or a hamster. Or some doritos. Anything really. Hell, I might even give you $10 bucks just to take the damn thing away. ;)
No seriously.. I have 2 godchildren, and I absolutely adore them. But, I didn't like being near them when they were babies, and it's good to give them back to their parents after, say, ten minutes. Unless we're playing Nintendo. Then they can stay as long as they want, 'cuz it makes me feel l33t to pwn 7 year olds at Mario Party. :P

jeez sarah - just when i really started to like you :eek:

but respectfully i submit - babies that grow up to suck are generally tampered with by the same people who tamper with dogs that suck.
nothing will change your mind, as you stated, but open your mind to the thought of their being some cool babies. Yes they can suck the life force out of their parents and surrounding people but they also give great joy.
And just as you are so proud of your dog because you raised him to be a cool dog, many people are raising some cool kids. they are, trust me. lol

Equating rounding up full grown dogs to use as food and aborting a 3 month old fetus for reasons unclear doesn't seem off topic?
and using imagery such as "vacuuming" etc doesn't sound like you are pushing the discussion to an agenda item of yours?
But if grace affords you the chance to do something about such things, admist times where the world weighs so heavy on our shoulders, then good on ya.
are you saying that if someone is lucky enough to have time to care about dogs being butchered and eaten when other tough things are going on in the world then they are to be commended? I would think that people not making time to give a minimal effort (signing a petition!!!11) would be condemned for their inactivity on an issue they could directly affect.

I am just not sure i understand that last quoted line of yours.
Agenda item? What am I, a politician? Some guy standing on the street corner of an abortion clinic with a sign? Hell no. I have utter disdain for people who do such things. I'm "one of those people" who feels that abortion is wrong. Now, I'm not a woman...so that decision for me comes easy doesnt it? But I would never be against it under certain circumstances. What if the mother's life is at stake? Who's to say what the right thing is to do. In the end, as someone has already pointed out to me, it IS legal. So my thoughts on the subject are simply just that...my thoughts. Tripe, to quote Carrie! But I am no woman hater, so to imply that is just simply ridiculous.
Praise...sure. If its deserved of course. We live in times where "me and my own" is typically the only concern of your fellow man. Sometimes its not even a fault of your own. Many people have families...children...work two jobs...all these things keep you from "making a difference" in other areas of the world. And there's nothing wrong with that.

It wasnt completely off topic. I was relating the butchering of one species to the butchering of another. Someone said "fundie"...hardly. Just merely stating my thought on THAT particular subject that I brought up in the first place. I dont like seeing animals harmed in any way (except bugs and snakes)! haha...
Not worth bothering about isnt what I meant, although my comment did seem dismissive. But if grace affords you the chance to do something about such things, admist times where the world weighs so heavy on our shoulders, then good on ya.
Oh come off it Brandon. What about the people around the world who are being butchered as we speak because of war and intolerance? You knew exactly what point you were trying to make and it had nothing to do with cruelty to animals or any so-called connection to it, you chose the most controversial option in an attempt to start preaching about your beliefs.
Your statement reads as, why should I care about animals dying when babies are being killed. Even taking the argument of abortion out of the equation, that says a lot about you. Even though I know millions of people live in poverty around the world and that is far worst than say a starving animal at my door, doesn't mean it's not important to show animals some kindness. If I saw an animal abused my first thought wouldn't be, you know that's terrible but while kids are being beaten it's not worth thinking about, it would just be that's terrible and wrong, full stop. Obviously your mind works in some kind of ranking system.
Also "if grace affords you the chance to do something about such things, admist times where the world weighs so heavy on our shoulders"? Who the hell talks like that? Just so you know it comes across insincere, patronising and preachy.

Agenda item? What am I, a politician? Some guy standing on the street corner of an abortion clinic with a sign? Hell no. I have utter disdain for people who do such things. I'm "one of those people" who feels that abortion is wrong.
Well you certainly come off as pushing an agenda when you can equate abortion (using graphic language) with dogs for food in a "save the dog's" thread.
I was not arguing your opinion or mine on abortion.
I was arguing with your statement that you were not off topic when you equated abortion with this "dog for food" thread.
But I am no woman hater, so to imply that is just simply ridiculous.
i am guessing this isn't aimed at me because i never suggested or implied this.
Praise...sure. If its deserved of course. We live in times where "me and my own" is typically the only concern of your fellow man. Sometimes its not even a fault of your own. Many people have families...children...work two jobs...all these things keep you from "making a difference" in other areas of the world. And there's nothing wrong with that.
and i guess i don't agree that because someone decides to have children and then they have to work extra to provide for the life choices they made, this does not exempt them from the responsibility of working to make the world a better place for all and not just "theirs and their own".

I think it might just be your unrivalled knack of saying what you think in an incredibly patronising way. Whether you do it on purpose to wind people up, or it's just an unfortunate by-product of your way of typing whatever comes into your head and then not checking it afterwards, it really does result in almost every sentence appearing to be a snide dig at someone's point of view. I really don't think anyone has anything against you personally, but the way you say stuff really does come across badly. Like when you talk about "greater issues".. why is your idea of what constitutes a greater issue more valid than anyone else's? Because it looks like you think that.

'greater' issues like abortion? that deserves our attention more than the topic of this thread in your opinion. you seem dismissive of others concerns (eating dogs) in light of what you think is important (abortion).

I did bring it up, but for it to turn into what it did was not my aim. Somehow that always manages to happen on this board. Everyone gets panties twisted and what not. I've never been told I was patronizing. EVER. Not in person, nor by any of my friends. I dont believe that I am. And I've met plenty of patronizing bastids.
How about we just stamp out anything I've previously said? Maybe can all agree that there ARE greater issues (and when I said greater issues, i meant my OWN mind pondering greater issues...not everyone here...yeah, everyone here has the knack to completely dissect what one says and make it mean something different than intended) that needs more attention than aborting babies, or eating dogs.

That has NEVER EVER been my intent on these boards. Those of you that know me know that. Its like when someone asks you "Whats wrong?" "Are you mad?" "Are you ok?" And everything is fine, and it gets irritating. So when people do that to you, that gets annoying right? Same situation here. A certain few say I'm trying to rile, and its simply not true. It seems as though I make simple comments, and they get blown up past what I MEANT them for. I think certain people like the argument that somehow gets created, then blame it on me. I've seen it done in the past with other people on here. They get run off. Not the case with me. I just end up defending myself, playing the martyr, explaining myself...and in the end I suppose it all boils down to the fact that I dont HAVE to explain myself. But I do it because it seems the courteous thing to do. I could just say "BLOW ME" and put an end to it. Would that be the preferred response? We all have discussions and we move on. Maybe thats "riling" in someone else's book, but not mine. I've learned everyone here, including myself, are hard headed as they come. So can we move on to my next "hidden agenda (HA!)"...ridding the world of Chris Crocker!

People who don't care about animals, or anything besides humans, are short sighted a-holes. And although I was surprised and not pleased by your original abortion comment, and disagree with you vehemently, I think letting it go is cool. I don't really think you have an agenda, per se. I do think you are a nice person with icky ideas, icky priorities, and not enough information.
Which isn't as insulting as it sounds, as you are probably thinking the same thing about me, or others. Like people who don't care about abortions and who do care about animal abuse. And, of course, "icky" is a subjective term. :laugh:
Even if you have no agenda, you must have known, or at least realize now, that if you mention abortion as wrong, and an important thing to think about, you'll get some serious guff. It's like (an abortion), 4 cells, whereas a dog is already a whole dog.
Also, there is a population problem. Also, there isn't enough people to take care of the kids that already exist in the world. Also, no one wants anyone to have and take care of some kid they don't want or know how to take care of.
It's cool, though, really there is no harm done by you expressing your opinion. I'm not going to accuse you of agendas, I'm just going to say that it appears the bulk of us <s>think your opinion sucks nard</s> disagree with you.
As far as I'm concerned, you've always been pretty nice. I'm sure we all have ideas from our upbringing that stay with us and resist logic. I'll notice the good about you, and largely ignore the bad. It would be nice if everyone thought like me, but it's not going to happen, and that doesn't necessarily mean the person doesn't have anything of value to offer. JMO.

giving two ****s about animals and giving to peta aren't necessarily related but thats a different discussion.
ok then, seems to be splitting hairs but . . . let's restate my earlier question to you, but modify it a bit to take into account those folks who don't give two ****s about animals. . .
'why bring a divissive issue like abortion into a discussion where MOST people can agree that it is wrong to be butchering/hunting/eating dogs?'
The alteration doesn't seem to change the point i was making with that comment.
and i didn't call you patronizing did I?.

Let's use beliefs instead.
I just think expressing your beliefs on abortion in a fashion that was seemingly dismissive of the original topic at hand made some eyebrows go up.
It was a combo of an off topic comment with some very descriptive language often used by the hard-core anti-abortionists. If you use the language of that group then you will be assumed to be part of that group. I am surprised that you are surprised that you are gettin this response.

Yeah, exactly. I just know him, so I'm giving him the BOTD.
Um..I just wrote this huge thing, with all these points and ****, you know, super insightful points? and bunches of other stuff? With words for the ages and shizz? But in a nice way?
And it totally got erased in the process.
The worst part is I don't remember it just now.
It's not the end of the world, I was just so suddenly disappointed when I hit "back", and nothing was there. None of my insightful multiple paragraphs survived. As in, the last 20 minutes of my life and brain wasted, never to be recovered.
I may never live to think that same, same beauty ageyhn.
Sorry, that JUST happened, and I was feeling some angst about it. I mean it just happened right now, that I lost millions of cool words. I'm still angsty. Really, I'm pissed. I will let it go, but it just happened, so I haven't yet. Also I'm pissed that I won't have my Deep Thoughts on record to look at later. It can't be proven that I have even had these deep thoughts. And should I need them later, I can't access them. It's like they never existed. But I spent time figuring them out!
Oh, cruel ledge world. Do not sucketh my intellectual soul thusly, with nary a crumb to look back on!
Oh, plus, there is a spider here. It just webbed across my screen, and alighted on my desk. Now it is gone, lost in the folds of my mess. Weak.
Now it is a devil, for me to come upon later, in a most unpleasant, surprising way! Will my soul never cease to be tormented?! Bitch?!

Had you said something more interesting then what was being said, we would have gone with it. Sadly, that was not the case. Talking about people threadjacking does not count as "interesting", BTW. Unless you include something interesting with your complaint of threadjacking. Which you did not.
Look, I'm not laying blame, I'm as sad as you are that you didn't say something interesting enough that it had the power to thwart our threadjacking. :( I still think you might be a good person, though, despite that. I mean, it's possible if not probable. Take heart. You may have something interesting to say yet!!! Keep in mind that it has to be about the subject at hand to not be counted as threadjacking. According to your rules.
So, in summary, you have to say something interesting and compelling about the subject at hand to qualify for your own standards, the ones you have expressed here.
Aaaannnd...Go!!! Seriously, I'm waiting with baited breath. I'm sure you have it in you, something really interesting to say, that is not off topic!
I can only conclude that you have the goods, since you complained and all.
Show us your insight and rapier wit! Show us your never before heard of thoughts! The points of view no one has ever thought of! We await your wisdom...I know how hard it is, to express yourself originally and interestingly. The work that goes into arranging your thoughts as no one else has before, in hopes of amusing or informing your fellow man! To present them with something they haven't heard a million times before! To say it in a new way!
I'm sure you are up to the challenge, at least I assume so, from the desires for learned and fulfilling exchange that you have just expressed. Your crying out in angst about topics not being adhered to!!! Your pain sears my soul, I feel it in my very Stevie-est heart. Your pain at people not talking about rote topics in the same time tested way they have always been talked about before! The philistine way we let our minds stray to whims and fancies! Saying things other than what has been proscribed before as the proper thing to say!
We are like naked boobed Caribbeans, and you are like the civilizing Christian missionaries. Teach us the boring way, so that we may know the beauty of restraint and denial! Of not letting thoughts stray!! I look to you, oh pragmatic one of whose thoughts will show us the way.
Bestoweth, and stuff.
We're all just human. Supposedly.

num num num.
that is the ugliest baby i've ever seen. I'm not having one just from the fear it might look like that :eek:
Praise...sure. If its deserved of course. We live in times where "me and my own" is typically the only concern of your fellow man. Sometimes its not even a fault of your own. Many people have families...children...work two jobs...all these things keep you from "making a difference" in other areas of the world. And there's nothing wrong with that.
There's nothing wrong with that, but that doesn't mean the people trying to make that small difference are bad because they didn't pick the issue that is more tragic :shrug:
I think issues like this are very personal. I don't judge anyone because they do or do not donate to charities and do volunteer work. I personally do (and btw...I donate to PETA AND the United States Humane Society, AND I volunteer at the local humane society. But I don't think that makes me more or less of an animal lover. It's just a personal choice, and something that makes my life complete) because there are so many more other things I wish I could do, so I just do what little I can. But to insinuate it's less important and we all should be fighting for something grander and better is offensive. I'm sorry that you didn't mean it that way, but that's the way it came across :sorry:
Another thing about animal rights: I don't love babies, but they are just as innocent as animals. I would NEVER in a million years want someone to abuse children or hurt them in any way. But the fact of the matter is, they have a voice. They have more people fighting for them. Animals do too, to an extent, but kinda like you hinted-there are other more important things out there. (more important to other people, not myself). So the overall thought of society is that it's not a priority, but to me it is. Someone has to do it, and that's what I think of everytime I go to the shelter and help, or every time I pick up a stray on the side of the road. someone has to do it. It's just that not many do :( :( so it's kinda like fighting for the underdog. no pun intended.

I think letting it go is cool. I don't really think you have an agenda, per se. I do think you are a nice person with icky ideas, icky priorities, and not enough information.
Which isn't as insulting as it sounds, as you are probably thinking the same thing about me, or others. .
Well isnt judging me as a whole by saying "you have icky priorities" a little short sighted? I mean, all that everyone knows of me is what they've seen on these forums. No one knows me in person, nor I them. What you see here on these forums is only a tiny bit of everyone. Icky ideas? Hmm. Well I dont feel that way. I think most people thought that my "descriptive" abortion comment was to cause a rile, and sway the topic that way. In complete truth, it wasnt. Maybe its just the way my mind works. I never sat back and thought "OH, I cant wait to see where this one goes." And maybe because I even responded to the comments, I kept the dialogue going, which made it seem as though that was my "agenda." It indeed was not. It wasnt intentional. If I cant convince anyone of that, so be it. But thats how I feel about it. Besides...nothing i say really has any bearing on anyone's life. And there arent many on here that agree with a lot of my "personal beliefs"...so what does it matter to those here anyhow? I guess next time I'll just made glib comments on most things, if I am even capable of that.

you know, I've sympathized with your plight (in principle) from the beginning (even tho I abhor your abortion statement). I know firsthand exactly what you're talking about re: the dogpile mentality on this site. You make an unpopular statement and you might as well build yourself a bomb shelter because you will get slammed by the pack mentality.
This aint National Geographic and we dont need to see a wolfpack in action thank you very much.
I may not have agreed with Brandon's statement, but I dont agree with Sarah either that babies shouldnt be allowed to grow up to be adults because adults suck......of course, she DID say that Stout mellowed her attitude somewhat (please tell me how your constant drinking references protect you from the "drunk" moniker)
I DO agree with Amber that we have too many people to support now, and that indiscriminate procreation is irresponsible. That said, however, not every baby born is an unwanted baby (or an unprovided-for baby). My personal opinion is that the CHOICE to have a baby belongs to the parents involved, not the STATE or the FUNDIE PROPAGANDA JUGGERNAUT.
ok. carry on.

"constant drinking references" ? the fact that in random chats we've discussed beers and what not makes me have "constant drinking references"?
con-stant adj. -
1. not changing or varying; uniform; regular; invariable: All conditions during the three experiments were constant.
2. continuing without pause or letup; unceasing: constant noise.
3. regularly recurrent; continual; persistent: He found it impossible to work with constant interruption.

You are the first person to insinuate that I am a drunk. Other than myself, when I openly acknowledged - at least twice that I can remember - that I have had drug and alcohol abuse problems and have significantly cleaned up my act minus a beer or two and a joint. I don't know anything about your drinking habits, other than that fact that I read it when Rickypt called you a drunk. I've not seen anyone else say it.
I don't know anything about a Les be Friends club. I don't know anyone's orientation here, except for Carrie's. Although I did see Deanna mention something about a "partner" earlier, so I assumed, but that's neither here nor there. There is no club to speak of. It's not a band of dykes. My sexual orientation has almost nothing.. NOTHING.. to do with any aspect of my life other than my involvement with my partner. I have to admit I am slightly annoyed at your insinuation that I choose my friends on the Ledge based on the way that they swing. I don't really know anyone's orientation and I'm not that superficial. I chit chat with and befriend the individuals who make me laugh.
Oh, and nice way to edit your post to get in a cheap "sheep" shot, Miss Morality. I'm not a ****ing sheep and you should think twice before you start ****talking me. Perhaps we should invite you into the club so that you will, in fact, actually go eat dog ****. That is a hell of a good idea that you had. I support it.

IT WAS PLAINLY OBVIOUS WHY HE CALLED YOU A DRUNK. He took a cheap shot at you after you practically spit in his face about his depression problems! I didn't take it as, "ohhhh that Irish downs 3 or 4 bottles a day and he threw it in her face, how rotten". I took it as, "ohh hell, that's some nasty fighting going on." I didn't know - and DON'T KNOW - if it was rooted in fact or not.
There's no pack mentality going on with me right now. I have been objective with you. We've agreed a couple of times and we've disagreed a couple of times. But now, because I'm not standing beside you crying, "wahhh they're ganging up on soandso", you've lost YOUR ability to be objective, and that causes me to pass judgement on your posts.
There are instances of groups of people backing each other up - on whatever side - on random things. But if you'll put it into perspective, there's no Ledge war here, so there aren't any sides for me to take. There's nothing to win, and nothing to fight over. Really, it's just everybody chatting over random stuff, in agreement or not, and then you come along with your little schtick of namecalling. You're clearly instigating in almost every thread these days, and it's just freakin old. If you're so clever that you don't dare sink to the level of "us sheep", why don't you think of some new phrases to use, instead of beating the same drum every.damn.post?
Or better yet, why don't you just ignore everyone you don't like and only associate with those who you do? Why do you have to invent an issue? That's rhetorical. I would venture to guess that it's just fun for you to rile people up and to stir the pot a bit because you're bored. I guess that's okay.. every board has someone exactly like you. If you left, someone else would just come along and do it.
I feel really lame and dirty for even participating in this back and forth with you. It's pointless. You'll just respond with some sort of weak bitchslap that doesn't have any content of value whatsoever.

it wasnt "plainly obvious" at ALL. that was an inside job and I know it. If you dont then you arent part of the "in crowd" baybeh.
fyi: Ryan was making "drunk" comments long before that thread blew up. Keep up.
btw. I can see I riled you. I wish I could say I was sorry ........

Typical.
1. I don't claim to be part of the in crowd. I fully realize that certain people here are closer friends because they've met. In all honesty, my very best Ledge friends don't come here anymore - and haven't since the Say You Will days at the latest - because of **** like this.
2. I don't keep up. I don't read every thread. I don't care to read every thread. I don't care about your feuds (or feuds of others), your personal life (or that of others), or anything like that. You are text to me. Annoying text, but text all the same. I just find it damn pathetic that you felt like you had to take a shot at me when I had not addressed you in any way shape or form. Free country, I guess. Freedom to be a jerk via freedom of speech is guaranteed, I guess.
3. I'm not riled. I'm just saying. If you don't know how to read my tone, perhaps you should revisit some of my other posts. Keep up. And of course you aren't sorry. You're completely devoid of the ability to empathize. Honestly, I'm sorry for you. Bless your weak little heart.

And I'm done doing this with you. I've told you before that I'm not going to get in catfights with you. And again, I feel dirty for participating in this. It's beneath me at this stage of my life.
You'll rejoice just like you always do, I'm sure, but I'm going to put you on ignore now. Take your little parasitic self over to your next host; maybe you can get all 3,000+ members to ignore you by the time the next FM tour rolls around! Woo hoo! :woohoo:

you dont keep up? you dont read every thread? your'e not part of the "in crowd?" why am I not surprised????
is there a site where we can register our disbelief? as in: I KNOW what they're saying is heinous but can I go somewhere and PROTEST????? like with a brew??? (personally, I think registering your discontent with a brew is a quintessentially IRISH way to protest.) at any rate, it just seems like you're throwing stones. at glass houses and such.

It may be outside your ability to understand, but some people consider themselves loners.
Some people don't care if a majority of people like them or not. Some people don't cry about not getting picked, take their ball, and go home.
Some people don't purposely alienate themselves to cause a stir.
Ugh. That's what my curiosity gets for clicking view post. I was hoping you'd accept the fact that this is useless. I was hoping for too much.

No joke, dude. No joke.
Some people would think that little online spats are funny and entertaining. I just find their deliberate creation to be quite sad. It's very small minded, especially to bring someone's orientation into the mix.

oh, one more thing. the "les be friends club"? as far as i know, there are only 2 other homo girls who post here on anything close to a regular basis. the only one i talk to is sarah, and i didn't even know she was a 'mo until, like, last week. because like sarah, i don't read every post and every thread here. so that comment was just a blatant, sad, ridiculous, ignorant attempt at a bitch slap founded in absolutely nothing.

oh. and here i felt like it was so obvious. :distress:
and you're exactly right. hate and ignorance, hand-in-hand. the more i think about it, the more sad and pissed off i get. i know her intent was to hurt me by throwing it in my face.. but it didn't hurt. it just looked very small and disgusting. and then to have my "moral fiber" questioned. completely incoherent chain of thought processes. :confused:

I know what you've read, so I know exactly what the score is. But you know what? I don't really care. Anything that you've read I stand behind and would say it right here if it weren't for me getting banned.
Let's just call off all the cryptic bull**** and get to the point. The reason people call you a drunk is because you post all this nonsense that resembles you completely losing your mind, then come back the next morning (after you've sobered up-IT APPEARS-read: speculation, i'm not accusing, before you get post-report happy) and edit half of what you said the night before.
I cannot believe this has turned into yet another "waaaah, sheep and cliques hurt my feelings" waaaaah f*cking wah. Be an adult. get over it. I can't help it that I am friends with people on this board.
but something I'd like to know. Please give me your definition of a clique. I'm waiting on the edge of my seat. Actually i'm not. I have to go to work because I have a patient that was in a car accident and broke her front tooth. You know, like, something serious. I don't have time for this **** anymore.
