Iā€™m not defending anything or saying anything specifically posted by Broomstick is true. But I can 100% believe she has been told some weird and bizarre shit if people saw her husband, being out in public and standing out or not being the norm seems to attract assholes and whacked statements and questions and advice. ---

But if you donā€™t necessarily believe ā€œanything specifically posted by Broomstick is trueā€, why would you believe she has been told some ā€œsome weird and bizarre shitā€? Because frankly some of the things she claims to have been told in public are the hardest for me to believe. ---

I canā€™t say whether or not **Broomstick** ā€™s husband has a burned bum or not, because I wasnā€™t there when it did or didnā€™t happen, and even if I were there Iā€™d probably be too embarrassed to admit looking at a manā€™s bum. But, I am here to say that human skin does burn easily and symbols or words do occasionally get accidently imprinted on it, branding-iron style. I can say this with authority because it happened to me a long time ago, and I live with the physical and mental scars to this day. In my case, it was a war injury, one that earned me a Purple Heart. I was in Korea at the time, dug in with my troops for some R&R just a click south of the 39th parallel. I was standing outside the mess tent, studying my map, with wild Yak roasting on the grills. The military had recently shipped these newfangled Char-Broil grills to all the mess tents in Korea. As you know, in times of war, all messages must be written in very sophisticated code, lest the enemy learn sensitive information, like battle tactics, troop positions and product brand names. In Korea, the military used a particularly effective coding algorithm: writing everything backwards, mirror-style. Try as they did, those North Koreans never did break that code. Then, just as I looked up from my map and yelled, ā€œfellas, I think I made a mistake, weā€™re supposed to be just below the 38th parallel, not the 39th, the gates of hell swung open and the onslaught commenced. A regiment of North Korean foot soldiers and Hyundai tanks swarmed over the hill and stormed toward us. We started to eat very quickly, not wanting the enemy to confiscate our precious food. But, many of us werenā€™t fast enough. Before I knew what hit me [del]2[/del] [del]5[/del] 15 North Koreans had me surrounded and began poking me with their bayonets, some even managed to unravel a bit of my cashmere sweater (it was casual Friday). I grabbed a Yak leg and started swinging it furiously, knocking them all down, except for one. That one mean-looking sombitch solder (he looked a lot like Psy) then charged me and, catching me off balance, made me stumble backwards, falling on to one of the red hot grills. From that day forward, my troops, the ones who survived, called me olā€™ Sizzlinā€™ Sgt. Rump Roast and now my kids do, too. And, you guessed it, forever branded (non-mirrored) on my left buttock cheek is the word ā€œCHARā€, and on my right cheek, ā€œBROIL.ā€ Embarrassingly, I get snickers and sarcastic comments about my ass every single day, even from children (I live in a nudist colony). So, donā€™t be too quick to judge the veracity of other peopleā€™s stories even if they seem a little far-fetched, because sometimes, as in my case, theyā€™re true! ---

This kinky couple decided one day to have sex in a graveyard. So they go and start doing each other on a headstone. After they are done the woman starts complaining of back pains. She then goes to her doctor and he tells her: ā€œWell Ms. Jacobs, your back is fine. You only pulled a muscle. You should be worried about something else though. Your ass died in 1942.ā€ ---

I used to think she was just creative, but after her rambling in the MPSIMS thread about what kind of pilot she is, Iā€™m calling BS. Sheā€™s not a pilot, or if she is, itā€™s limited to paper airplanes.

I canā€™t help but think even somebody with spina bifida isnā€™t going to stay seated on a round-topped hot grill long enough to have ÉæɘɗɘW permanently branded on his ass, no matter how drunk he is. Plus, his ass crack would have kept the ɗ from imprinting, leaving just Éæɘ ɘW. ---

I get the strong impression **Broomstick** is a lair on some things or at least a heavy exaggerator. She seems to like the pathetic attention she gets by being a ā€œvictimā€ of society or circumstance. However, I can believe she was a pilot at one time. Then again, I wouldnā€™t be totally shocked to find out it was a lie based on playing flight sims. ---
