She’s tougher than you think. From as far as I can tell she’s been like this for at least 3-4 years…anyway, suicide would place her in hell. And since we know she’s not living with me, she will be fine. 🙂

ETA: see what I mean?

Perhaps, it would be better if you actually quoted the message you’re responding to than going “^^^”.

Holly

P.S. That is what we were told to do at another forum that I used to go to. It wasn’t a forum that I was banned from, but I don’t go to it anymore because its for something that I am not interested in anymore.

Hey Holly I have a question. Where do you learn all this stuff about James? Where have you heard him say stuff about what he likes and doesn’t like?

Holly, If I were James Otto, I would be more than a little afraid of you. You come off like some crazy, stalker chick.

^^^ There isn’t a reason for him to be scared of me. If anything I am scared of him. James grew almost one foot more than me and his hands are huge when they are right there in front of you! 🙂 🙂 🙂

God bless you and him always!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Holly

P.S. There is still no restraining order in the picture. 🙂 🙂 🙂

I got news for you, sweetheart. No one has “the right” to say anything at all on a _private_ message board that they don’t own. You are here _entirely_ at the sufferance of the board’s administration, and if they decide to take into account their user-base’s opinions on who can say what, then you _are_ subject to that user-base’s opinions on whether or not you should be _allowed_ to continue annoying them. Sorry.

Satan curse you for all eternity!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

**An asshole with bad news for you**

P.S. That would be why you keep getting banned from message boards. It doesn’t pay to piss off the other users.

Won’t protect him in a “Misery” (by Stephen King) type situation. He’ll be picking locks with lost bobby pins, drinking mop-water, and picking up penguin figurines in no time at all. It’ll only end when he finally manages to stuff his burning guitar down [del]Annie Wilkes[/del] Holly’s throat with his fingerless hands.

Satan curse you for all eternity!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Good, but they have the right to ban you if they like. Freedom of speech applies to the _government_. A private organization can do what they like. Freedom of speech isn’t going to stop your boss from firing your ass if you call him a douchebag right to his face.

It may conserve space, but it makes it harder to follow, particularly if someone got in between your message and the one you are replying to.  
May Satan curse you into the deepest pits of Hell for all eternity. :mad::mad::mad:
