I’ve heard the claim that when they do that, they’re trying to teach you to hunt, like you’re a giant kitten they’re raising.
The Spam Women just can’t keep their virtual hands off me.
First I got an e-mail invitation to “smell the body of adorable Alfy Pember”. Now I am informed that “Buffy L. Doidge will do anything for me”.
It’s getting harder and harder to resist temptation. :smack:
Wow, some fuckhead on Facebook just called me “hateful” and said I “relish in the pain of others.” Why? Because I said that someone losing his job for shouting an abusive comment at a woman was the “best news I’ve heard all day.” Goddamn asshole.
I reported the mean comment guy to Facebook authorities, but don’t know if they can do much.
Well, yeah, your comment was hateful. Pretty much when you enjoy someone else’s suffering, we call that “hateful”.
Sure, sometimes the hate is deserved. But “best news I’ve heard all day” goes beyond a violator getting their just desserts, it goes into enjoying that punishment.
Moron (after a while of incredibly frustrating and increasingly pointless argument): ‘This referendum has nothing to do with equality. It’s just about gay marriage, which has nothing to do with equality. If you were actually in favour of marriage equality, then you’d believe that adults should be able to marry four-year-olds! And you don’t! HA!’
Me: ‘Forget it. I’m not even going to argue with that one, because it’s several orders of magnitude too ridiculous to be worth it.’
Moron: ‘You’re not going to argue with it because YOU KNOW I’VE GOT YOU CORNERED YOU’RE JUST LYING ABOUT IT BEING RIDICULOUS TO GIVE YOURSELF A WAY OUT I WIN HAHAHAHA GOTCHA!!!’
You’d think I’d be pitting the moron, but actually I’m pitting myself. The moron was just being its utterly predictable self, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end, amen. But me, I should have fucking known better than to waste any emotional energy there. I really fucking should.
It was a very abusive comment that the guy who lost his job said to the woman, and I figured that he fully deserved to lose his job over it, so I was glad to hear he lost his job. Besides, I haven’t heard much good news today, and that news had indeed been the best news I’d heard all day - up until the time that the Facebook commenter guy decided to call me hateful.
You can agree or not with the fact that the original guy should’ve lost his job, but that Facebook commenter was just mean.
Ok, what the fuck happened today? Full moon with Mars in retrograde? Asshole Toxin dumped into the Earth’s atmosphere? Unspeakable tension bubbling up as Cthulhu awakens to consume us all?
People have been just total shits today. Far too many of them.
Not necessarily. For someone dealing with chronic depression, it doesn’t take much to clear that bar.
That part was BETTER?
No, what I meant was it kind of took away some of whatever good feeling I had about the guy getting fired. (Apparently I wasn’t supposed to feel good about it.)
Sigh.
It’s That Time of the Month.
Which lead to way too much time spent in the bathroom at work, swapping tampons or pooping.
Not to mention time spent fretting about how I got blood on my KNEE (spoiler: not blood. chalk–off a box, don’t know why they put bright red chalk on the outside of a box)
Sign me up.
A quick memory about forgiveness. When I was about 18 and had been living on my own for a couple of years, I remember saying to my mom, hey I forgive you for all the crap. She looked me dead in the eye and said the equivalent to " I never did anything wrong." We then devolved into an argument on how many times she sent me to the hospital.
Good times.
Never let anyone or any event define you. Don’t give anyone that power.
I’ve never done anything well in my life. I’m getting really fucking tired of sucking at everything.
Emphasis added. WE don’t call that hateful. You might. I call it Schadenfreude. If it’s deserved, I don’t feel bad for feeling good about it. Sorry/Notsorry.
Seriously, FUCK that guy. If you are dumb enough to make stupid, misogynistic comments on TV, screw you. Lose your job; I won’t feel bad about it.
We foster kittens, lost one last year, and one we got adopted out died too. Sucks.
I cant understand how anyone, male of female, could not know their ass crack is sticking out. Buy a fucking belt, its gross.
If it was the bit about the Hydro One guy in Toronto (I just saw something about that in another Pit thread), please go right back to feeling good about it. 
Yes, kaylasdad99, it was. Thank you.
I’m dogsitting today and waiting for the chimney people.
It’s gorgeous outside today and I’m stuck here waiting
