I was married to a sexually molested christian fundie and recognize many similarities. Sexual confusion, bad-mouthing the ex...
The woman I'm talking about has many wonderful (If slightly crazily employed) traits though. She's a very attentive mother, has very high moral standards, but cannot get her life together at all. She's 41 now, and has never held a job, or any close personal relationships. It's sad to watch.
We share the kids equally and do our best never to bad-mouth the other (doesn't always work, as the frustration boils over).
Having children may not have been carefully thought-out choice at the time; but, once you're there, you gotta do the deal. We talk every day, sometimes do things together, and right now; I am baby-sitting her child by another man. So she can make a court appearance, for yet another of her mis-guided descisions. I pay for the entire deal though I am not a rich man by any means. People call me an enabler; but I know that her life would fall to pieces in a month if I didn't contribute the way I do. I just think some people are SO damaged by the traumas of their early lives that they are doing the best they can.
I agree with others about the bad-mouthing in such a public forum. Watch out! You are repeating old mistakes.
I have long heard that marijuana stays "positive" on a blood test long after (Days? weeks?) use. Does anyone know if this is true?
It would explain the gov'ts reluctance to de-criminalize, because it could not be proven whether the driver, machine operator etc. was actually "high" at the time, or had used the drug days ago.
Ass-wich? Hilarious, particularly from a supposed Austrian. Borat was OK though I found myself cringing at times; the dinner party was hard to take; though I loved the line about all the women were hot (except the reverend’s) “maybe not so much”. The expose of the rodeo homophobe was priceless. SBC didn’t do it to him, he did it to himself. I haven't seen many of the Bruno appearances on AGS, but by all the same standards you could criticize the AGS which is original and stingingly apt. Reminds me of Monty Python as well as Peter Sellers.
I wonder about all the indignation though; Kasakh’s, gays? I’m a typical WASP and it doesn’t bother me when ethnic comedians bust on my type at all.
Does anyone really argue Catholic doctrine anymore? You know them blacks are subjagatin' owu chillin' into the devil's music!
Here’s a real deep dynamic for you to ponder. Try to keep up. The reason why fascist nutjobs get attention from people like us is that there is an alarming number of people in this country willing to listen to spokespeople like Palin, Limbaugh, Malkin, Hannity, Dobson… the list goes on and on. These people don’t care about their fellow man, they are filled with invective and hate. Whoops, forgot to mention GREED. Afraid of paying their fair share of taxes, so married to their usurous business hegemony, so scared of completely non-threatening minorities that they see boogeymen under every bed. You know; gays, Jews, Mexicans , Doctors, liberals, Kool-aid drinkers?
It’s fun to see them discredited, it’s fun to shine a spotlight on their abject ignorance and intolerance. It’s also way cool to watch the moral grandstanders shopping for sex in public toilets, abusing their wives and children, and while preaching fiscal-responsibility, running the richest nation on the planet into bankruptcy through war and reckless military spending, but hooking-up their corporate buddies on the way out the door.
I guess it's just fun to call-out bullies and watch them piss their pants.
"A marginal topic" to be sure. It was not the letter-writers of Salon who catapulted this highly-unqualified person into the limelight. Nor were we the ones who constantly intimated that this "pit bull with lipstick" was, perhaps the future of a national party.
You make those kinda claims, you gotta take the heat. Or, if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Something like this?

Funny stuff. Maybe she could double-dribble and head the puck over the uprights. Four points!
... with that crazy woman blathering on. Nice crowd too; what was the cast of "Deliverence" not available?
Let me hear one , just ONE, of the trolls admit it, and I'm done.
Will NEVER happen. Therein lies the problem; exactly who is the aggressor?
"This river don't go to Aintree boy, you done took a wrong turn".
What is an "ought" statement?
Larry Craig! Trolling for any kind of sex (with anyone wearing shoes) in a public restroom, then trotting out his wife for public humiliation.
Really, are you Repub. apologists trying to say that the ledger is even?
Jeff "Cut" Gannon/Guckert, slimey ho with pictures of his hard-on widely available, but none-the-less given a white house press ID? By whom exactly?
Foley's predation (For years and widely known) of Congressional Pages? Covered up by whom?
Tim haggard's claim of "total heterosexuality" again trotting out the wife as a "proof". Dick-sucking on meth, a simple lapse in an otherwise distinguished career.
You guys could not get enough of murdering Bill Clinton for a fairly tame dalliance. Now own it you weird, constapated, closeted self-haters.
I'm thinking about changing parties; you guys have all the sex... Oh that's right; never mind.
