So this is what's going on between loveumore and me.
Currently she believes I'm Chance Deveraux, who in real life is a buddy of mine whom I've given content to put stuff online for money. And she thinks I'm chichikilla, some kid from a gaming site. She "sleuthed" this info by looking up links from my online web presences that I told Lit about. (Mind you, she hasn't even investigated my Travoltus account at Slashdot. Or my theltothet account at lulu.com. Heheheh. See, loveumore, I'm willing to HELP you here, to make it a challenge.)
On a side note, I wonder if loveumore noticed that I don't get in fights on those websites like I do here, even though I am just as adamant there. Bah, I doubt many people here are smart enough to realize what it means when I bring the exact same attitude to at LEAST 3 or 4 websites and only ONE website has a problem with it. That's probably why we have the NEXT problem I'm about to address.
My case against loveumore's sanity is, she gloats about making an animal suffer before it dies. No normal person brags about drowning a mouse. Rosco Rathbone said it well: he did it with great remorse, because the alternative for the mouse in HIS story was to die even more slowly and painfully, on a glue trap. THAT is what a normal person would do. But not loveumore - no, she's happy to see that mouse suffer a frightening death by suffocation (which is basically what drowning is) PLUS she brags about filming it.
Movie production companies go out of their way to point out that no cruelty was performed on animals in their movies, because the public hates to know animals died to make a film. Go watch Hidalgo's ending credits if you think I'm bullshitting you. But then you have this crazy woman from bumfuck podunkville bragging about filming an animal's slow agonizing demise. And only a small handful of people here think that's crazy?
And then there are the holes in loveumore's story. First she says she sees the mice in her apartment as a threat worthy of being drowned painfully and cruelly. On film, mind you. But then she keeps her kids in close proximity with these creatures while padding her story with claims that she's called in someone to take care of it. Hello, McFly's of Lit. A normal parent would get their kid out of there and to a motel, preferably one they've vetted to make sure it has no rats or roaches. Or she'd take them over to her in-laws or family and keep them there until this pest problem is resolved. THAT is what a normal parent would do. I dunno about the rest of the country, but in California you can recover costs from your landlord related to getting out of proximity with mice - especially if you just moved in and noticed the problem. But when it comes to your kids' health and the dangers of disease from mice, does money matter? Hell, no. Bring on the unpaid bills and bill collector calls. My kids' safety matters first.
On the other hand, consider the shitstorm that erupted when a big dog came up to my wife's feet on our porch and started snarling and growling, and I posted about shooting it in the head. Quick and painless. No suffering, no slow agonizing death. Suddenly now everyone is talking about how I shouldn't have shot it. What was I going to do, tell it "nice doggy" and pray it didn't jump up and take a chunk out of my baby or my wife? Or run inside and get Turd Ferguson's "miracle dog repellant" and PRAY the dog didn't jump on my wife or kid? And how was I to know if it was rabid or not? Why should I take the chance? How many people here would not shoot someone or something that is right there, not even 12 inches from your spouse and child, baring its teeth? Hello, what happened to the Ulaven "I'm gonna perforate you if you come anywhere near my family" Demorte approach?
If a dog bites someone you betcha animal control will kill it. But I guess on the General Board you have to let the animal bite you first before you take action.
What a load of hypocrisy. Subjecting an animal to a slow frightening cruel death by drowning, and failing to remove your kids from the proximity of others of its kind is okay, but swiftly (and thus humanely) ending the life of a big dog whose teeth are bared within 12 inches of your wife and baby is wrong?
And you wonder why the General Board is laughed at by other Lit forums and the net in general?
Now, cutebrowngirl, watch the trolls go crazy.
