4. I look like Claire, so I can lure helpless people
into my clutches and do naughty things with them.

37. did i freak you out?
i'm very versatile in many an area. Not only that, I look like Claire from SIx Feet Under.

But really, I simply googled it (since your question was cryptic to me), and assumed that's where you got it from.


anything else, dear?

10. Why have I had the urge to spend every waking moment in bed lately?
Edited on Mon Jun-06-05 03:41 PM by primate1
I don't necessarily want to sleep...just to be in bed. I need a laptop so I can achieve that goal.

19. Well....
Lemme see primate, how's your energy level been? You're iniatiative?
You're either lacking two legs, you're currently in a stage in your life where you're desperately seeking comfort, or, you're stuck under something heavy.

18. Why are people so mean? Even here, on the greatest website on earth,
Sometimes people are mean, rude, sarcastic and .... mean.

Why are they like that? Has the US lost its civility?

i think calling for the murder of family pets, regardless of any lack of history of violence is pretty mean, don't you?

52. Yes, it sure is... If not for the machinations of man, we wouldn't have
such a terrible thing in our society to come to decisions about, would we? Those poor dogs didn't get that reputation out of thin air.

If it weren't for men who used and bred and taught generations of these poor working dogs to fight each other to the death, to rip out eyes and entrails, you and I wouldn't be faced with having to discuss their detriment on our lives and our children.

What is wrong with people that they are so mean and would do something so savage to what were once good, hard working, loyal animals?

Sometimes the visciousness of man really, really saddens me.

25. Unfortunately
Why? For the same reason any one of us have ever been mean, rude, sarcastic and mean: it's an easy mask for insecurity and fear.
Also, we learn from those we love.

But take heart, radwriter, I believe it was the sociologist Durkheim that once said that a society couldn't exist without deviance. Even more, the positive experiences we have will be even more happy because they're contrasted by those assholes we meet in life.

I guess, my only suggesstion, and this is the only way I can see to treat this situation progressively, is to be civil to these assholes and laugh it off.
The reaction they (the assholes) create is only found in your mind, so don't let em get to you, and you wont even bat an eyelid.
Finally, to be even more Pollyanna-ish, take heart that the people we see as mean and indifferent can be life lessons for all of us.

Did any of that make sense?

26. Well...
Getting out of the restaurant industry and transferring to regular 40/wk hours, really helped my lifestyle, that's for sure. Also, savings, and I only spend money on good food, good alcohol, and good entertainment.
Without clothes/furniture/presents adn the like, you can buy some really shi-shi rockstar items.

33. Well, I remember dajoisey cat
who said a lot of random stalker-ish comments which were then all deleted.


so, to answer your first question? i'd say you're related because you're most likely the same person.

do i know you?
maybe, are you fucking with me?
definitely.
