Thanks, but that won’t happen. And no, as I’ve said repeatedly I don’t want any sympathy. It is a joyous thing to go home. I do fear the process of dying because it may be painful. (I will basically be suffocating.) But I believe Jesus when he says that though I were dead, yet shall I live. Please understand, I really do believe Him.
Not at all. As I’ve said many times, what is real is what is eternal, necessary, and essential. The universe is none of those.
I love this google ad.
“Are you sick or stupid?” Addiction is not a disease. You can do something about stupidity.
Perfect 
I had to drop out of a Buddhism class in college because I couldn’t handle the teacher or the class really. I needed a humanity credit and it was the cool thing to do, but little did I know. I prioritized studying for a major calculus exam over doing the homework reading for the buddhism class only to be asked to stay afterwards and explain why I was unprepared. My explanation didn’t pass muster because HER class deals with enlightenment and exams and grades are just a meaningless construct created by the human mind. (never say this to someone after a 12 hour adderall fueled calculus 3 studying bender) If math homework doesn’t exist than neither does Buddhism homework. I wanted to throw up on her desk and then tell her it didn’t exist. I dropped the class that day.
Now I’m feeling that surreal ‘cough-syrup-with-codeine hangover’ that I always get when I’m really frustrated with Lib, and he’s once again put on that maniacal grin and started up with the ‘put on your new Nike’s and grab a glass of coolaide; the mutha ship is coming to make us one with the non-existant universe!’ spiel.
If he’s ill, I’d want him to get better, no question. But Lib intentionally maneuvers people so that they suspect that maybe he’s making it up, and at the right moment he hops on his high horse and looks down on anyone snared in the trap.
He believes the J-Man is some psychedelic shepherd, and one day Lib going to unzip his body like a tracksuit and run off through tulips hand-in-hand with big-J. That’s great too. I hope it’s true for him. But once again, he puts it out there all purple and flowery knowing people are going to want to puke on it. At the right moment it’s back on the high horse to look down on the anyone so base as to mock his beliefs.
Kinda sick of it. Anyone else?
Lib is in the center. Otto is off to one side. I think he’s about to ask, “Why do you not save yourself and us?”
When Cameron was in Egypt’s land…
I think the next to die will be brazil84 when his wife finds him with the 19-year old hottie in bed.
Liberal, let’s be real (or whatever you call real in your universe). You were begging on your knees for this. You are like a bakery in Christmas, with your fruity nuttiness all over the boards. Funny that you are being called on it on this thread which was about someone volunteering info and then asking for privacy.
Clearly he wasn’t getting enough action in his “they’ve adjusted my meds, I’m not crazy any more” thread.
I must confess some bafflement as to how somebody who talks so much could possibly suffocate.
Delicious…
You know, I was initially going to respond to the comment by Waverly, but you pretty much beat me to it.
We’re ALL dying. That’s the nasty little side effect of being born. Some are going to go sooner than others. Some will have a long, drawn-out process, some will have a “lights out!” moment. This is what makes the whole “play nice with me because I’m sick/dying” thing so bloody stupid. By that reasoning, we should be nice to everyone.
Hell, by that reasoning I should be extra-special nice to Mr. Kitty, who has CF and is about 20 years past his multiple-doctor-assigned expiration date. But despite the fact that his pulmonary function score is 19, and his oxygen saturation is in the low 60s, I can’t quite bring myself to cut him a break. Especially since he can manage to get his ass out of the house every day to work and doesn’t go around throwing his illness out like a shield of protection when things aren’t going his way.
[tongue in cheek]
Anyone wonder if Otto and Liberal conspired to turn the thread this way? Lib gets his much-desired attention from the masses, Otto gets attention taken away from his misguided attempt at a joke… win-win situation all around?
[/tongue in cheek]
Who said ventriloquism was a lost art?
Except for the woman who is out $20.
Ah, well… this is true. Let’s see, then. There must be a silver lining for her as well.

Anyone wonder if Otto and Liberal conspired to create this whole situation? Otto first gets ideas on how to salvage his misguided attempt at a joke AND gets attention taken away when things get too hot by Lib stepping in and derailing the Pit thread; Lib gets his much-desired attention from the masses; Otto’s friend finds out who she can really trust to be honest with her (note that I am not weighing in on the steal/not steal debate) for the measly price of $20… win-win-win situation all around?
[/faux edit of my own post, still tongue in cheek]
There. Not bad, I think.
Not exactly, but I was surprised by how long this thread had gotten, and then surprised and irked by the degree to which Liberal was now the target. (Irked at Liberal by the way, more so than at his detracters). I thought the pointless pitting focused on Liberal was mercykilled yesterday. (The one he started, attacking What Exit?).
I’ve never seen this ad. Are you sure this comes up for anyone else? 
(sorry, I couldn’t pass this up. . . I don’t even know you)
Well, can’t we go back and continue a pile-on of Anaamika, at least?
Oooh, do me next!
Jesus Bryan, always chiming in with a “me to” post. Can’t you add a little content. I swear sometimes you make me want to scream.
you wish.
