OK, I've had it. Time to vent. STOP WHINING LIKE BITCHES.

[rpgamerd00d]

(Warning: This is a Vent Post. Ignore at your leisure.)
========================================================

JESUS FUCKING H CHRIST ON A POGO STICK, STOP YOUR FUCKING WHINING.

"Oh god, the end is here!"
"That it, its over!"
"I am sad for our country.."
"Filibuster is dead, we are doomed..."

OMFG, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Look, I understand that we are Liberals, and being Liberal we actually have sympathy and compassion, and that having those two emotions leads to these types of thoughts. Thats ok, don't let anyone tell you what to think, and don't even let anyone tell you what to say. (Free speech and all that.)

But for CHRIST'S SAKE STOP WHINING LIKE A BITCH. Its ok to feel sad, its ok to post your thoughts, but for FUCKS SAKE TURN YOUR NEGATIVE ENERGY AROUND AND MAKE IT POSITIVE. Sympathy should become Righteous Indignation, Compassion should become Balls-to-the-walls Resistance.

Look, WE ARE CORRECT IN OUR BELIEFS. Stop DOUBTING THAT just because the world isn't the way we would prefer it to be.

Self-Pity

I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.

by D. H. Lawrence

KNOCK OFF ALL THE SELF-PITY AND GROW SOME THICKER SKIN. GIVING UP ACCOMPLISHES **NOTHING**.

========================================================
(OK, rant over. Thank you for indulging.)

1. You're gonna get sick if you don't stop repressing your feelings...

:)

[rpgamerd00d]

2. Yes, I have trouble relating my feelings to strangers... :)

:rofl:

[DoYouEverWonder]

15. Wow Merc

Starting to loosen up in your old age? You should come out of the dungeon for some fresh air more often.

:hi:

[MercutioATC]

17. Hell, I'm reduced to coming to GD for some sanity!

How troubling is that?


:)

:hi:

[DoYouEverWonder]

19. Then why do you hang around?

Do you just love abuse? ;-)

[MercutioATC]

21. I've been asked that question many times...

...I hang around because every once in a while there are some people in the dungeon who're basing their opinions on misconceptions about aviation or air traffic control and I can help explain things. Actually, it's also increased my knowledge of 9/11 a lot, too.

[DoYouEverWonder]

23. So what do you think happened?

n/t

[MercutioATC]

28. Ask me in the dungeon.

I don't want to clutter up this thread, but I'll be happy to share my views.

[DoYouEverWonder]

29. Cool

See ya after dinner.

[rpgamerd00d]

20. Whats "GD" ?

[MercutioATC]

22. "General Discussion"...the forum we're in right now.

(generally viewed as one of the most contentious forums at DU)

[rpgamerd00d]

25. Ahh, ok..... wait, there are other forums here? wtf?

:rofl:

[Just Me]

27. LMAO!

Too funny! :rofl:

[JeffR]

3. Yeah, but

Uh... but... but... oh, OK.
B-)

[MakeItSo]

4. Amen to that --- people have had it rough since the beginning of time

We've had it really really really easy. Now's not the time to cave. Courage in the face of adversity is our most powerful weapon.

[leftstreet]

5. STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[tkmorris]

6. What exactly is a "bitch"?

And how does one whine like one?

[rpgamerd00d]

8. Its a female dog, and when they are in heat they.... oh nevermind

:rofl:

[patrice]

7. There are larger issues than SCOTUS at work here.

We want victory against Alito, but our actions are affecting the (Much) Bigger Picture too. The "proof of the pudding" will be found in Commitment.

[cry baby]

9. Haven't given up!! But I feel a bit of panic setting in.

Here is a question for you: Do you think that the American people are waking up and the media is mis-representing that fact, or do you think that the media is accurate in pushing the notion that people aren't paying attention or don't care or are OK with everything that's going on?

[rpgamerd00d]

11. I think everyone that voted for Kerry is onboard, as well as many that...

... voted for Bush.

No one wants a Dictator.

[cry baby]

14. Polls tell me that the media isn't telling it like it is.

They are spinning furiously as a desperate measure to help their corporate guy, bu$h.

I think people are waking up a little bit.

[zippy890]

10. jesus christ on a pogo stick

is that anything like jesus on a trailer hitch?

if so, I'll stop whining


:rofl:

[Just Me]

12. *LOL* 'kay.

Your welcome. :hi:

Seriously, though,...you're right. The pity party can only go on for so long before it drags down to desparation and despair, which is not a place where one can make a difference.

[Armstead]

13. "It's my party and I'll whine if I want to, whine if I want to"

(Apologies to Leslie Gore)

[DoYouEverWonder]

16. Remember the Whiners from SNL?

I think they have a few descendants on this board.

[MakeItSo]

18. I had a Welsh Terrier bitch who took on German Shepards all the time

I grew up with her. She weighed less than 20 pounds but she would take on anyone or anything. She was really protective of us kids and in a weird way, did her bit to raise us.

Don't pile on the bitches!

[welshTerrier2]

24. ahhhh, a kindred spirit ...

someday a welsh terrier will run for office and things will get better ... count on it ...

[mandyky]

26. Fan of GI Jane's tormentor, huh?

I haven't seen _that_ much whining on DU, in fact, I think DUers spend less time whininng than the GOP spends on fake indignant outrage. We'll live if Alito gets the position, hopefully Dems in the Senate will take things as far as possible.

Even though aboout 40% of Americans seem to have shit for brains, I still have faith in America and Americans in general. What we have to insure is that Diebold and other voting machines are rendered unhackable.
