Okay, I’ll admit it, I was wrong. That is definitely a line that Helen Mirren would say more than Judi Dench or Glenda Jackson (though I see Martha Stewart saying it more than either of them- but she’s not an actress). In the movie of this thread you get Helen Mirren (with Linda Hunt and Marlee Matlin as ladies in waiting).

**Rubystreak** , you win the thread, no sarcasm intended. You dont come off bitchy at all; in fact this is how we, (we being everyone), should have been discoursing all along.

You have many valid points, so if you dont mind I’ll comment on a few of them.

> [@Rubystreak](#):
>
> I do wish your threads on serious topics were actually serious, so there isn’t this feeling in me that you’re in denial, only want to talk about things as you see fit, and don’t want to face the implications of what you say. Those implications seem really clear to me and apparently to others, but you don’t seem ready to face all of them.

My defense mechanism is humor. I’m not saying that as an excuse, merely as an explanatory statement. I could have easily written a chillingly serious post about my blackout that day, but I feel much more comfortable ladelling along some jokes. A valid argument could be made that I have been very insensitive in such posts, but I honestly had no idea that many people would be sincerely concerned about me. I posted to get things off my chest and ask for advice and support; I never expected either really. I guess that’s the cynical bastard inside me.

I feel strange already talking about myself in such detail, as I’m inevitably going to be bashed by somebody for attention-whoring and revealing too much about my real persona. Kinda my personal Catch-22 if you will. If I say nothing, then I’m not making progress and worrying the people that care about me. If I put forward serious effort and make a rational, mature post about my life, then I get accused of being puerile and inappropriate. I hope with time that will change…

[QUOTE=Rubystreak]

This is why people want you to post less, probably, if I can assay a guess. You make people uncomfortable because your posts seem to reveal a pretty messed up guy, who is lonely and wants attention and has screwed up his life. You want to talk about things, but not actually discuss them. It’s frustrating. I’m not trying to piss you off or hurt your feelings by saying this. I honestly have this impression of you, and I think you should know it.  
[/QUOTE]

You can and you may 😉 In my defense, in a few past threads, I have discussed my life at length and with less juvenile humor. In some I could have attributed more blame to myself than others, and for that I was justly chastished, but I think it’s unfair to claim I’m being one-sided.

Also, the persona I’m portraying online, one that I was unaware of here but am now most painfully the contrary, is quite different from my real persona. That’s nobodys fault but my own, and I guess I have no way of proving this other than my word ☹ but I say this in order to allay the fears of those worried about me, and to perhaps temper the wrath of those who hate me. YMMV.

[QUOTE=Rubystreak]

I also think that a lot of people are laughing AT you, at the spectacle you create rather frequently. God, I hate watching that happen. I work in a middle school, and I witness it personally all the time.  
[/QUOTE]

I hate it too, and you bringing it up was the major reason why I started this thread. I’ve experienced firsthand and secondhand that very same phenomenon many times, and it really angered me to think that I’m possibly guilty of the same thing on The Dope. You may very well be right though… it seems I over-estimated the percentage of people innocently chuckling.

[QUOTE=Rubystreak]

I don’t know what to tell you, and I can’t really offer advice. I hope you can take this message in the spirit that I’m offering it, which is someone who is really a stranger, a 3rd person observer who is trying to give you some insight. Take it or leave it as you will. I hope someday you can look back on this phase of your life, shake your head ruefully, and laugh without being laughed at.  
[/QUOTE]

QFT. And thanks.

I totally agree, and for that, I can only say I’m sorry.

I can see that. I guess, though, the OP of yours that started this was only funny because you subsequently started talking about the things you put in your ass. This is what people call attention whoring, and I called the monkey boy act. Rape is pretty fucking serious, I know you know that and wouldn’t demean someone else’s concerns in that situation. Why do you do it to yourself? It says to me that you can’t face the implications of drinking so much that you seriously feared someone sodomized you without you knowing it, so you trivialize it and yourself. Now, for all I know, you have faced it, but it doesn’t seem like it. And that, my friend, is disturbing. It makes me sad for you, and mad at you.

> [@](#):

My feeling on reading it at the time was, if you were really worried about having been raped, there would have been no ladling of anything. I do understand the humor defense, but that leaves me wondering… do you want to be taken seriously, and have your concerns, problems, and pain taken as such, or do you want to be a clown? I think you want both, but unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way for other people. At least, not all in the same thread.

> [@](#):

I totally understand this and it is a valid point. If I knew you in real life, it would make a difference to me and I would vouch for you until the end. But all I can speak to is your intensely personal and revelatory posts here. I believe that you are different IRL, and I’m glad to hear it. 😉

Some are. Some aren’t. If you don’t want to be That Guy, you have to rethink what you post and how you post it. If you don’t give a fuck, which is also a perfectly valid attitude, then, as you were. A lot of your shit is funny, when it’s not all personal and frankly, kind of unintentionally tragic.

You know it’d be really more dramatic if you stopped making as many ex **I** ts (there: are you happy TomnDebb?). We’ll fix it in editing and include the others on deleted scenes.

[/QUOTE]

On the contrary, for a while now I’ve accepted the implications of my behavior and, upon reflection, have become so worried about them that the only way I could even bring myself to talk about my past was and is to joke around. Like I said, I was legitimately worried about being raped, as silly as that may seem to those who are more knowledgable about life. The TMI was a most unfortunate lapse of judgement, brought upon half by relief and half by insecurity. Hey, at the very least we got some good jokes out of it :smack:

This made me think. I guess I do want both. I never really thought of it that way, but I suppose all my life I have been a strange comedic, tragic smoothy. Next time I’ll try to express myself more clearly in my OPs as to whether I’m looking for laughs, sympathy, or a blend of both. If some readers cant handle laughter and tears in the same thread, then so be it.

Dwarf? Deaf girl? Whoooooosh 😕

I realized a long time ago I shouldn’t have even opened that thread. I had just read Kite Runner and was in no mood. Also, I’m obviously not your target audience in general. We can agree to disagree about such discussions and I won’t read your threads with titles whose content I can’t deal with being addressed with your sense of humor. If that makes any sense. Now, this doesn’t take are of all the other people who think like me, but hey, that’s an occupational hazard for you, eh?

I know, man, but sadly, in my view, YOU were the joke. Now you’re going to be Ladle Boy, at least for a while. I’m still not sure if that’s what you want or not.

[QUOTE=Autolycus]  
Fuck you. It is that simple.

In defense of myself, I was not booted out from school, merely put on leave. I am not sponging; I work a full-time job soon. As for the attention whore part, I guess you got me there :rolleyes:

But yeah, your post is indeed simpler. Kudos to you.  
[/QUOTE]  
Now there you go again, lashing out at others when in fact you are the one who is messed up.

Being put on leave from school against your will means that you have been booted out. Perhaps you will get your boozing under control and be re-admitted, but as it stands, you have been booted.

Living with your folks as an adult, and not holding down a full time job to pay the freight, means that you are sponging off of them. Perhaps you will get your act together and someday get a full time job, and then move out, but as it stands you are sponging.

As far as being a drunk and an attention whore goes, your posting history stands for itself (particularly your having posted about being booted due to being a drunk).

Starting a pit thread directing a person who has called you on your behavior to fuck off, and then telling another person in that thread who has called you on your behavior to fuck off, simply confirms that you are messed up.

To bad you can’t act more responsibly, in your personal life, your academic life, your home life, and your posting life. The least you could do here is to not pit others, but unfortunately that suggestion simply causes you to say “fuck off”, like a pull-string doll: [pull] “fuck off” [pull] “fuck off” [pull] “fuck off” [pull] “fuck off” [pull] “fuck off”.

Really, it is not too much to ask: do not pit others.

Hypothetically speaking, if one was to make an anonymous name to bash the actions of a person on The Dope, and if this was a group activity done by many other anonymous people, who then all engage in vicious contests to see who is the most mean, there could possibly be such a place on the Internet. If a person was to be interested in where such a site could be found if it existed, one could maybe PM this person with a guess of what the URL may be. Of course, that’s all just a theory.

Actually, it’s a lot to ask. EVEN if all you say about me is true, how does that correlate into me giving up my abilities as a Dope Member to express outrage over wrongs I feel have been committed unto me. Please correct me if I’m wrong; your argument is that because I’m a complete fuck-up kid, that I lose my freedom of speech? That’s silly. I dont understand how you can make that argument with a straight face. Are you for sterilizing sexual predators too? Obviously that’s an extreme example, but I think it’s a similar line of reasoning.

Apparently you think I’m just a wind-up doll though that can only say “fuck you,” so your wish is my command: Fuck You.

Right back atcha buddy. But, for the sake of this new concept you mention called responsibility, I’m willing to agree to disagree. Doesnt do either of us much good to just bicker like this. So, we have a deal?

**Hal Briston** was the victim of a prank. He takes his shit. You, however, keep coming back and offering up more and more personal info which certain people on this board are filing away under the “ammo to use against **Auto** at anytime in the future” box under the guise of “I was really just concerned about you.” You really want to be their bitch the rest of your time here?

Mark your calendars, kids-- levdrakon actually has a point mixed in with his usual. People here have long memories. Some will use this shit against you, and you will have a hard time living it down. It will get brought up. People will not take you seriously when you want them to. True in life as well as Dope. Worth thinking about.

I will not be one of those people, though. My concern for you is not under the guise of whatever the fuck levdrakon is implying, and I’m not toting up grudges(interestingly, levdrakon is, apparently, over fucking BSG threads… ah, gotta love hypocrisy). But I think you know that, and that’s all that matters.

Oversharing here has a way of biting you on the ass. I know the ladle might get in the way of that 😃 but really. Learn it now, memories will fade.

Hm. Yeah. Like this:

[QUOTE=Rubystreak]  
I’m sure people like levdrakon, who can’t really throw stones at the personal lives of others, and who have axes to grind with me from their own pathetic behavior in threads about BSG, will back you up.  
[/QUOTE]  
Now what on earth would you know about my personal life which renders me unqualified to cast stones, Ms. Long Memory?
