Sorry to hear this. It was nice to meet you, and you were very cheerful. In my own selfish way, I’m glad that that colored my impression of you. Come see us again June 26th. First drink is on me.
Trunk, fuck off. Yes, thank you, even at the time of posting I was well aware of the irony involved in my posting about the futility of posting. Basically, it was a non-sensical rant, as I acknowledged. Perhaps a bit insulting, but I’d assume that the ironic element would lead one to believe that it wasn’t a serious and literal rant against posters at the SDMB, but just someone shouting who felt like he needed to shout for a bit. In fact, if you read the very next post of mine I even said that I wasn’t ranting about the boards, which you chose to ignore to support your own sense of righteous indignation. Well, fuck off. If you can’t be bothered to use a little sense when you read a post, then that’s not my problem. Cecil’s been fighting ignorance since the '70s; maybe you’d better sign up for his 12-step program.
Likewise to ZebraShaSha. Sure, emotions are selfish. I’m being selfish. Whoopty-fucking-doo. As I said, I was venting. Now is not a time where generously keeping my feelings inside is going to do me much good, so I guess you’ll have to deal.
Ok, value is irrelevant. In the grand scheme of the universe, I am naught but a man futilly lying in front of a bulldozer to save my home from demolition as the world itself is coming to an end. Nothing matters. So, for me, for this moment, the fact that I’m hurting is in the forefront of the relevancies of my life. It won’t be forever, but it is now. And, frankly, the fact that billions of other people have been in my exact situation does not have any bearing whatsoever on what my feelings should or shouldn’t be right now. If I was an impassionate fuck who didn’t care about anything because it’s all been done then maybe I’d agree with you, but I’m not so I don’t.
I’m sorry you’re hurting, Eonwe. Hopefully soon you’ll feel improved enough to go out and be with ‘real people’ instead of annoying ‘internet folks’ who don’t seem to get what you’re going through. Or else don’t give a crap.
Be well.
Eonwe would you feel a little better and get rid of some pent up anger if we all piled on Trunk for being an insensitive wally?
Oh, see, here I was thinking that this was some girl you’d just met recently and so you were being a wuss about it. I didn’t realize you’d been together for so long. 5 months and a week and she just hangs you out in the wind like that.
That’s gonna take a long time to get over.
Take it from me, decades from now you’re going to look back on those 5 months and realize the pain hasn’t faded and its never going to. That’s a long time with one woman. By 5 months, it’s deep, like the ocean. Jack and Rose had but a week, and she still isn’t over him. Your souls have melded into one. You lived and loved and shared so many memories. . .anniverseries, trips to the beach, those long summer nights you spent together gazing up into the sky, seeing the leaves change color, that halloween party, Thanksgiving and Christmas with each other. At least you’ll have your memories of all that.
Man, I bet she hasn’t even farted in front of you yet.
Titanic was in the theaters longer than that.
And, just to set the record straight, my indignation is never righteous. It’s just plain old garden variety indignancy.
Eonwe, you’re a smart dude, you know what you are in now, what is ahead of you, and what gets better after that. Got the t-shirt, and all.
Doesn’t do squat for you right now, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness. So you got that goin’ for you, which is nice.
Trunk, you are being an ass, which is within your rights in this forum. But an ass nonetheless.
Quit being such an ass, Trunk, and quit pissing on this thread for NO good reason.
Go away.
I’m sorry you got hurt, Nate.
Trunk, do us all a favor and shove your condescending attitude and your “hahah ur sfuffering si gay u suk lol” tone up your loose asshole.
Ugh. Been there. Hang in there, Eonwe.
Jesus, dude, because hurt is completely dependent on the length of the relationship? Nice job you insensitive fuckhead.
Eonwe, its Tuesday night – get thee to the pub! There are so many hot chicks there, I’m sure you can think of some way to assuage your pain… I know I can. Spill some beer on your buds, leer at the girls, and have fun.
Remember what I said about residuals? Heartache is the number one motivator of music authorship. Harness that energy (yes, I know, it’s negative energy), and get to work!
I’d give you a hug, but having met me, I’m sure you can understand my reluctance – I might hurt you. Take care.
arrrgh, I’ve so been there.
much sympathy.
What in 'the HELL is wrong with you???
jeez, you’re complaining eonwe is bitter and an ass? Hardly, he merely ranted about a hurt, and in quite a normal way for the pit, insofar as old regular dopers do, but you certainly are, and then some.
Boy, you must really set SOME store by your brilliantly worded political rants to take offense at such a basically UNOFFENSIVE thread such as b]eonwe**'s.
YOU’RE the one who needs to “step away from the computer”, since you seem to have taken a mere rant to heart and so personally so as to launch WWIII on one poster.
Do us girls a favor, identify yourself in real life so we don’t waste our breath on so much as a "get lost loser"should you deign to speak to one of us.
You mis-spelled “ignorance.”
I feel your pain, bud.
Well, actually, no I don’t. My pain is entirely different, deriving from a tooth extraction I had earlier today. So, now the hole where one of my wisdom teeth used to be hurts like hell, as opposed to the vacancy in my heart.
Then again, at least I got lotsa good drugs to help get me through it.
On the other hand, you’ll notice I’m still awake… :eek:
Ouch. Let the poor man grieve the loss of his relationship. We all get to the acceptance stage sooner or later so in the meantime, don’t be an insensitive lout. I’m sure eonwe will be happier again as he digests everything but we all need time to get there. While I agree with the premise of your statement, this is not the time to tell him to “get over it”.
Eonwe, I wish I could say something profound, but I’m all out of profundity for this month (and it’s only the 9th!). I just wanted to post to your thread to say it was a genuine pleasure to meet you at the fest-a-que, and I’m sorry for your pain.
Oh yeah, and take erislover up on that free drink! You* don’t get those offers every day! 
*Well, I don’t. YMMV, and all that.
Trunk, you are a small bitter fucknugget of a “man”. Maybe you should feel indignant at the fact that you probably haven’t been laid once in your life without paying for it, but don’t take it out on Eonwe. It isn’t his fault you are an insensitive, socially inept, fuckwad, immature loser.
