Again, I don't care right now, I just hate to watch you spin.

hmmm - when Tower referred to going to Vegas - he said he was staying in CP and getting a limo to and from the airport - not to mention his recent Hawiian trip.

Sparky often discusses his wardrobe, expensive taste in Tequila, and that he has rental property in LA

Pip ( I think ) posted several pics of her new car.

Diss has a $500 dog

ummm - how many people posted about spending how much on front row tickets?

should I go on?

In the end, I think you all are just gunning for me and it pisses me off. If that was your goal, you got it.

Note - I begrudge none of these people any of this. I just think you are a hypocrite for getting only on me about it, esp. when I do not always live that way and you damn well know it.

Also, little Ms. I am allowed to sit in self-righteous judgement on you Jason

You went to Vegas for how many days. Doesn't your bragging about that fall in the same boat as me? Or is it okay when you do it and mention it, but if I do the same I am an a$$hole.

Finally, and listen carefully this time - I do not defend the wealthy. I am sure many of the wealthy, poor, and medium incomne people of the world are jerks. All I have ever done is say that saying "all" people in any class are good or bad is wrong and that the numbers show really rich people donate. Is that too hard for you to comprehend? But, feel free to show me some quotes of mine where I said any differently.

I tell you what Strand, many times I have felt gunned after too by quite a few ledgies on here because they dont agree with my views. Tough S##T on them its a free country and everyone is entitled to what they earn and believe. I try not to engage in their crap, although occasionally I get sucked in! People need to remember that we are Stevie/Fm fans, lets try to get along.

Well, they don't do it as much. But again, I don't care. Or if I do, not really. Here's how I look at it: Diss usually talks in a certain way, Ryan usually talks in a certain way, Hillary usually talks in a certain way, Towie usually talks in a certain way, Sparky usually talks in a certain way, Lux usually talks in a certain way, Amber is perfectly original and fresh with every statement she makes, Brn Eyes usually talks in a certain way...
You just talk in a certain way. And why should you feel any less entitled to talk about your life than anyone else on here, just because it is different, or more, or whatever. I mean, people don't usually call me out for being poor.
It may not be fair for you to be called out. Although everyone can say what they want, and you responded, and whatever.
So - that's my point with that. Sure, sometimes I could be a bit jealous, but since I like you and everyone else I try not to be bitter about it. For instance, it's not your fault that I have less than you.

However, I do regularly take issue with you defending other wealthy people for various reasons. Usually just the same reasons as I would take issue with if anyone else did it. But that is because I think that in some cases you are misinformed about how some economic things really work. But that's the same argument I would have with any republican - it is political, not personal.
I'm sorry if I had a part in hurting your feelings. And this is just my opinion. And I'm not saying anyone else didn't have a point. In fact, in this post, I'm not addressing anyone else's point at all, just giving you mine.

Whoa, dude!!! If you read back, I didn't judge you. I just sought to clarify other people's points, and just now called you for spinning. half jokingly, too. Just the spin, not the subject of the spin.
So, just like I didn't offer an opinion before, I'm not offering one now on my bragging, and not being called out, and and how everyone was unfair to you. I can't speak as to all that, and I won't.

Not a single mention of your big brother?
I'm disappointed in you, Joe Hardy.

Thank you!

By the way, Joe, when I have a tie hung around my doorknob, that means I've got someone in there with me... so stop busting in, yelling, "we have a mystery to solve!"
I'm already trying to solve the Mystery Of The Buried Bone.

I'm just glad I'm not the gay one. I'll be in my room banging Nancy Drew.
Oh, and Chet called - you left your underwear in the back seat of his jalopy...

Ha! The joke's on you, because those can't be mine -- I don't wear underwear!

Wait a minute! That means Chet's two-timing me!
That fat bastard!

Yep - looks like Chet is working on "The Mystery of Pirates Gaping Cove"
although, I will knuckle box you to get the front seat next time. To the death.
