Oh, and on the OP.

First, be an individual. Be yourself. If you are happy with yourself no one else can change you.

However, sometimes realise that this will call shit down on you. Grow a spine, you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Make your choice, conformity or individualism. They both have benefits. If you pick the latter, prepare for some rough spots with others. (The former gives you rough spots with your self.)

On your individual preferances, go for it. I know I’m going to refuse to “grow up” in some ways for a very long time. I’m grown up enough in others, it all averages, right? I too love cats and hate beer. (No, really, its gross, even my die hard friends have stopped trying me on new beers because its a waste of “good” beer to watch me hurl.) Pain? Different people take it different ways. I bruise my finger and you’ll hear about it for a week, but when I rolled my car over my hand after putting it through the window (breaking a finger, smashing glass into my hand and ripping out my thumbnail) I was pretty fine with it. Clothing? If you have covered most of the X-rated bits, I don’t really care what with, though I will decide if I want to talk to you from what you’re wearing. ( dirty “Kill Osama Bin Laden” t-shirts don’t get much from me, while A Gary Larson or other witty shirt will.)

And, lastly, feelings/gender issues. Chill. Seriously. If I put as much stock as you do into what my gender is “supposed” to do I’d go batty. Seriously over the edge. I’m in engineering. I don’t wear make up. I role play. I’m not “girlie” yet I do see myself as feminine. Its how I am. And I love being me. Be who you are comfortable and happy being, no one beyond you needs any justification.

TIGGER –

:: JODI dons her fire-retadant panties, and steps gingerly into the minefield ::

No, Mormons are not “mean people,” they are by and large nice people. But many of them (especially in rural areas such as Southern Idaho, as compared to more urban Utah) tend to be quite conservative. They are rather buttoned-down, and mostly conformist. They are great believers in people being productive and responsible. And they tend to be rather insular, especially in Idaho. So an outsider who is 30+ and acts like a child would probably not receive a warm welcome. You would not be mistreated, but you would not be welcomed with open arms, either. I doubt very much that it would be much different than Kansas but if it was, it probably wouldn’t be better. Hope I haven’t pissed off any Southern Idahoan Mormons, though in truth I think they would have to agree with me.

Survivalists, Freemen, posse comutatus are all types of people who tend to live off the land and outside of society. (And these terms are not interchangeable, in that the last two groups have quasi-politicaly agendas while the first one does not.) They want largely to be left alone and they are extremely suspicious of outsiders. They also tend to be very conservative, politically, religiously, or socially (or some combination), and they would find you a true oddity.

I agree about the white supremacists, I have had a personal run-in with a KKK member because my buddy I was playing with at the time happened to be brown and I told the kkk boogerface to go eat boogers and threw a rock at him, then a cop came and busted him for heressing me.

Based on the above, it is my considered opinion that you are full of shit. Grown people may watch Rugrats and drink Kool-aid, but I know of no one over the age of six who communicates in such a way. I think you’re yanking our collective chain, and I want no part of it. Let me rephrase that in a way that your persona will be able to process: I think you’re probably a doodyhead, and I don’t want to play with you any more.

Toodles.

Strange, I often get that reaction from women.

44

Gonads and strife, man.

45

You know, I think I’d like to see those. Care to model…? :smiley:
D&R for my life…

46

Sorry, TRANQ, they don’t do a thing for me. Maximum coverage for maximum fire protection, you know. And I’m finally old enough to know that if I have to ask “does my ass look big in these?” the answer is probably “yes.” :slight_smile:

47

I do NOT share my kittys litterbox,
you just assumed I do because the
names are similar, so I’m sorry
but your wrong.

I don’t know what kind of reaction
or reply you want to the rest of your
post, but I see you like to falsely
accuse people of all these things
out of the blue just because I wanted
some answers, so I pist you off, GOOD!
Deal with it, if you don’t like
what I post then don’t reply, go away,
and go drink some sulfuric acid.

I don’t wonder about weird, I know
I’m weird, and dang proud of it,
I just don’t know why some people
seem to go out of their way to
walk into my garden/yard to heress me
when I don’t make any loud noise,
I don’t have loud parties (or any for that
matter), I don’t go knocking on peoples
doors or tramping through their yards/
gardens, so why would they all of a
sudden come over to heress me? I
was doing NOTHING to them and they
just BUTT in!!! I DID NOTHING!!!

All I wanted was some answers but
no, you had to make up some buttfart
story that I don’t even know what your
talking about.

If I think someone is too weird for me,
I JUST LET THEM BE AND GO ON MY WAY!!!

Do you think I go out of my way to
walk into their gardens and heress them???

Gee maybe thats what I should start doing,
maybe I should walk into their gardens
and start making things up about how they
do things, they don’t mow their grass right
or they are throwing that frisbee wrong.

Maybe I should just start putting everything
down I see.

Gee thank you for making my DAY!!!

>:(

Fine, then I will leave.

You are just like all the rest,
FUCK YOU ALL.
Is that more growed up for you?

I hate you all, I hope you all die.

Hey, I think it’s loverock’s older brother.

51

Well, shucks. Worth a try… :wink:

52

Can you get those in the Chicago area? That would make a great Festivus present for the missus.
BTW, I smell troll, and the only good troll is a dead troll, I think.

That boy ain’t right

Wow, 25 posts and the “Fuck you”‘s are flyin’. Either this clown is serious about the Peter Pan crap, or he is a fake persona trying to cause trouble. Either way, he has major damage. Yeesh!

Or it could be Michael Jackson crying out for help :smiley:

Say what you will about our new friend, but his profile sure is a classic:

AOL Instant Messenger Handle: screw you whore

Yahoo Instant Messenger Handle: fuck yourself

Biography: fine i hate you too.
delete this account,
i am going to just go some
where and die
::runs off to find a violin::

55

Well, heck, I feel that way inside just about every day, but you don’t catch me admitting it to people.

56

ah Little Tigger. You rugratlovin, jellybean eatin’, koolaid drinkin’, kitty sodomizing’, litterbox usin’, boy lovin’ kook!

Shine on you crazy diamond!

57

JAR, you slay me. You really do. “Shine on, you crazy diamond.” Damn, you are one funny chick. :slight_smile:

58

Hmmm. I am going to throw my two cents in here.

I am not going to defend LittleTigger. I think LittleTigger’s tastes and hobbies etc are not the problem. I think the problem is how LittleTigger reacts to other people’s reactions.

Here is some of what makes me who I am. Though LittleTigger and I share some similarities, there is one major difference.

[li]I loathe all sports. The closest thing I watch that even vaguely resembles a sport, is WWF. I have tried to watch sports, but they just don’t do anything for me. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]I love cats. I have five of them. I also have a dog. I love them dearly. It’s the fuckers that go around deliberately abusing and killing animals for sadistic pleasure that have the mind of a demented juvenile. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]I rarely drink alcohol. I can’t say I totally dislike alcohol, rather I just don’t see any point in getting drunk. Personally, I find drunkenness stupid. I’d rather have Coca~Cola, or coffee. When I am at home, I drink about a quart of chocolate milk a day. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]I prefer a relationship over meaningless sex, by a factor of 10 over 1. I have had both. Relationships are much more enjoyable. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]I don’t watch toons exclusively, but I love The Simpsons, King of the Hill, classic Scooby Doo, Flintstones, Johnny Bravo, and so on. Why? Because they make me laugh. That’s what toons are for. Everyone likes to laugh. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]I mostly listen to “girl” music. I like Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Garbage, Joan Jett, Bjork, etc. Why? because I enjoy the sound of a womans voice. I also listen to stuff ranging from Sinatra to Rob Zombie. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
[li]And lastly, I bawl at emotionally intense movies. Why? Because I am a human being, not a fucking robot. That doesn’t make me any less of a man. IMHO it makes more of a man. If Mr, Stereotypical Macho Man or anyone else has a problem with that, I don’t give a shit.[/li]
Little Tigger… Perhaps you should do as I learned, the hard way, long ago. Stop worrying what the hell other people think of you. If they can’t accept you for who you are, then they are not worth your time, or frustration. If someone is truly interested in you, they will take the time and attention to learn why you like what you like. It’s not easy being “Mr. Nice Guy” but its far more difficult to be “Mr I’ll Be What You Want Me To Be.”

I have two lines of advice for you Little Tigger:
[li]Grow up. It’s not your interests that are the problem. It’s how you present and handle them that is the problem.[/li]
[li]Nice guys may finish last, but those who try to live up to other’s expectations never finish at all because it’s a wild-goose-chase![/li]
Good luck, Little Tigger.

I picture Little Tigger stomping out of the room in feety-pajamas that are three sizes too small with a stuffed animal under his arm. The toy he carries was inspired by the works of A.A. Milne.

Buck up, little camper! Your kitty will still love you as long as you feed it regularly.

Hmmm, I guess that doodyhead comment really set him off then. Okay, carry on.
