I can think of over 50 million good examples every four years of why this is either completely foolish or the hallmark of democracy - take your pick.

please note that the aforementioned post was in no way intended to demean the bible or christians. if i'd wanted to do that i'd have drawn a cartoon. the bible reference was intended purely as a utility for peace.

My husband's cutting into roof trusses, and the house hasn't collapsed. . . yet.

"What's your problem, e?"

{Editor's note: Here's what's bugging me, as I would tell it to a friend of mine if I gave my internal editor the day off.}

Ya know, Xxxxx, I'm about out of empathy right now.

You were married to a total prick since before we became friends. Until you decided to walk out on him a year-and-a-half ago, I never once said a bad thing about him (to your face). I never thought he treated you like his beloved wife; in fact, more like his FWB. Why you stayed with him I never understood, but never felt it was my place to question you.

When you started having an affair 4 years ago with a married man who made you over-the-moon happy, I was nothing but supportive. You also knew that I was once involved with a married man, but that I simply don't have the stomach for it. Still, I never judged you about it. If anything, I was envious that you found a fantastic love, probably the love of your life.

When he died so young and so very suddenly and you were destroyed, I was there for you every day. I held you, cried with you, walked with you and just listened. You feared that you'd never, ever find a man again.

Guess what? I carry around that fear, too, for all my independence and self-confidence. Yup, even me. It's been 8 years since I've been seriously involved with anyone, and the most recent man who rocked my world I couldn't have because he was my professor, and then engaged. Yet I've never bitched, whined or moaned about this frustrating dry spell. Until today.

You tried personals, and after only one or two dates you would find so much to nitpick about that you'dgive up, bleating about how "there's nobody out there." Yeah, a couple of them were real nutters But there were two men right in your nose, right in your office, dying to ask you out. One didn't "dress right" and the other you just weren't "attracted to." But when you finally gave them a chance it wasn't so bad, was it, all that attention? One of them you described as sweet, attentive, demonstrative but "he dresses like a geek."

When I saw you and your geeky dresser together for the first time I was happy for your good fortune. He's a truly wonderful guy: sweet, attentive, demonstrative *and* charming (and I find nothing wrong with the way he dresses, btw). Imagine, finding two men you're wild about in the space of only four years, and *before* you're divorced. Do you even realize how rare that is?

~~~~~

Five days from now is that one day of the year that I've dreaded for the better part of my adult life. It's fine when you have someone to share it with, but even then it never seems to live up to it's billing, at least IME. V Day has generally been a huge disappointment. Thus, my dread for it.

So, Xxxxx, please don't take offense .... but SHUT THE FUCK UP about Valentine's Day, what you're going to make your BF for dinner and how you're going to try "fixing" the way he dresses with your V-Day present for him! I'm really fed up with your whining, your hypercritical diatribe and your lack of tact when it comes to this topic of your love life. I may be single, but I'm not dead.

As I said, my empathy quotient is running on fumes when it comes to you.

:::rant over:::

I'm turning into all the pet peeves at the top of my list: pettiness (#1), whininess (#2) and mean-spiritedness (#3). God I hate how ugly I feel right now. :::sigh:::

{Time to nip this pity party in the bud ...}

i didn't want to start a thread about this because it's kind of an embarrasing question...

can you get pregnant from filing your taxes? i feel like i've been fucked by the entire federal government... odds would favor that at least ONE person in the IRS is potent. so i'm just wondering... should i be using birth control while i work on this?

[EJFan]

I don't think it's possible to conceive when you're getting fucked up the ass.

i knew i should have taken sex-ed in junior high.

how sure are you about this? i mean... do you have supporting documentation?

EJ needs to fucking get on aim so I can serenade him. He knows he loves it.

 

[EJFan]

I know everything there is to know about taxes, and less.

well, except for whatever the hell a dual-status alien is. I suppose it's their way of saying area 51 does exist.

btw, do you take a deduction for semen depletion?

LMAO!

actually, i took advantage of the earned nookie tax credit too... and i still feel sodomized.

can the semen depletion be accounted for with the accellerated depreciation formula?

 

[Guest]

 

[EJFan]

see, this is where people make mistakes.

depletion is the reduction of a natural resource, thereby reducing value.

depreciation is the reduction in value due to age and/or wear (meaning it's useful life has reduced) Problem for you here is that it had to be useful in the first place.

thank god i came to you... the good folks at H&R Cock. i would never have known this otherwise.

I understand the choice you made, but I am heartbroken nonetheless. I will never forget our friendship, and all the things I learned from you. And I will always regret being robbed of sharing good things in the future. I wish you well, my dear friend. I wlll always be here should you change your mind.

Is anybody around to give me a hug?
