El Ciber – not to sound like the bitch from Jerry Maguire – but truth is – you had me on that wrestling post/vid. When I say I want to piss you off, it is really more ‘friendly’ as opposed to hostile. Kind of like teasing your retarded, gay brother, ya know? Got nothing against you. You tell it how it is. Much respect.

absolutely not you knucle dragging Mexican ,bean eating whatever)))))

I have just been working crazy hours due to one of my managers was on vacation , then boom 2 of my managers had deaths in their family , sigh, and I am covering for them actually .

I see daylight in my work schedule in about 2 weeks . I hold to family first at work . Tho sometimes it eats me up with a vengeance lol .

Speaking of smarts , which I am average , Someone who posts here , I will not name, actually used damn near my word for word response to a topic on TBP on a financial website. . It was almost copy and paste . I do not know if that is a good thing or a bad thing .

Only thing that pisses me off , is that when someone here posts something that I would like to use , I ask permission . I do not think it is right to use other’s words without permission .
If permission not given , I do not use the phrase or whatever .
But it is on srsrocco report , on comments , with someone ‘s particular avatar . Just seems kinda snide or something .
To the person that copied my answer , you have no honor if you do not reference TBP ,which is as close to a free open source website as I have found . Shame on you sir , if you do not give ADMIN that courtesy .
Wasn’t you EC .

If I see you ,the offending party , I will call you out , and be a SFM par excellence .

PS – I love that scene from pulp fiction. I just watched Kill Bill 1 & 2 these last few weeks during the lunch hours on my day job. Quentin Tarantino is a genius. I still think Reservoir Dogs is my all time favorite tho. But then again, Scarface was flippin awesome as well. IDK. I guess I’m still deciding after all these years. Later. G’nite El Ciber.

I may use another’s excellent phrase or expression after complimenting them for it.

Point 1. There is nothing new under the sun and you may see your ideas repeated elsewhere.

Point 2. I have the same sneaking suspicion that the MSM guys read TBP for ideas. I can’t be just coincidence, can it? I mean within days you see the comments here appearing in the MSM.

Point 3. I don’t post anywhere else. I read the comments on ZH sometimes but they have no purpose other than being silly.

You should have posted your comment and referred everybody back to the appropriate thread here. That’s total dickiness and juvenile to steal another person’s work and take credit for it.

JFish says: I will admit to being a freaked out by that “commenting too much / slow down” message that KB, Admin & I referred to above. I was afraid I broke TBP.

1. Provide a clue as to what issue you are responding to.

2. Proofread (ask yourself if you can live with that comment if your mom saw it), correct spelling errors, copy your comment, remove the blue highlight, then:

3. Wait until the page stops loading before hitting submit comment, otherwise you get that WP smartass message.

4. If you get a CAPCHA, go to another page for a bit and then come back and try again.

8. Review Maggie’s article on posting pictures if they apply to your topic, if not, just post boobs – sans nipples – and pray for approval in the form of thumbs up – almost guaranteed with a boob pic.

So you posted a comment and nobody cheered, you even got a couple of sympathy down thumbs from somebody pretending they read your comment. What to do:

1. Consider easy ways to commit suicide while writing a long screed blaming everybody on TBP for your demise.

2. Promise yourself that it doesn’t matter and your mom still loves you, hopefully she doesn’t read the crap you wrote after your demise.

3. Flip off everybody, blame them for your lousy sex, work, golf, life and let them have it full force, finishing up with: How you like me now, motherfuckers?

Ah, when I was a young lass I dressed all in blue
Because I believed in the red, white and blue.
And as I observed those around me I knew
That all I had thought was not close to true.

Now that I’m old and can see through the mask
I sometimes want God to call those to task
Who have stolen my dreams from my blissful young past
And caused me to stare in an abyss so vast.

Well, carry on.

Oh… OK… I guess since this post combines the dual nature of Andy Griffith along with the concept of the Patriot Act – that it only makes sense this thread goes on eternal.

1st El Ciber says Maggie is “controlling”. Then he says “Maggie said we could bullshit here all we wanted, we are safe here.” as if Maggie is the “Vice President of Comments & Posts” on TBP. Seems pretty funny to me!!

In now considering Stucky’s “rude, banana gif’s” along with “The Seventeenth Amendment and Federalism in an Age of National Political Parties” (which links only open up in the my brower and not in the PDF format, FYI) – I thinking this thread is going from SK’s Langoliers to more towards “The Three Faces of Eve”.

I am also starting to wonder if El Ciber just might be Stucky’s alternate Mexican personality. Quien es?

@EL Cibernetico, I look at that picture now, thinking back to how much “older” I was than most of the other recruits in basic training, when that photo was taken. I was at least 21 years old, having already bombed one year of college, worked in Texas in an oil refinery when the oil boom went bust, returned to college for a very successful academic year, struggling for dollars to pay rent and then decided that my high ASVAB scores might get me into an interesting career in uniform.

I was right and yes, Bea… I have always been pretty good in the technical realm. Unusual for a female, I suppose, but I grew up with an avid interest in what makes things work. Could repair my own POS Lemon Yellow Vega at 16, including installing a Holly 4 barrel carburetor in it.

Up late tonight because a damned fly was buzzing around. It is unseasonably warm here in the hills.

Hi Maggie! Still here! I enjoyed your post on the “male wussification” gig.

In the meantime, have a great evening in the “hills”! 🙂

PS – I just left a post on the “Wussification” link as well. Indentured Servant (on the “Trump / Hillary” post from yesterday) has told me to focus more on “quality” as opposed to “quantity.’ He was right. Since my first post on last Saturday, I might have got a little carried away this week. Was having too much fun. But, I think I get it now. Is cool. In the words of El Ciber – was just a ” noob” mistake, I think. Gnite

Don’t sweat it… I told you to just jump in and you have. A few sharks around, but they aren’t fatal. You are doing fine.

My life is changed somewhat with my new situation unfolding. I took care of my Poppa G… (father in law) during his terminal time in assisted living and nursing care) but had hoped my parents’ paid attention to that.

Was wrong.

Nah… I like Stephanie too. She’s a bright young lady. A few years older than my son, but if he brought a gal home like her, I’d be jumping for joy. Some of the old assholes here can’t stand the fact that they really aren’t in charge of all knowledge and power.

Is why our country is in trouble. The assholes are everywhere.

Am doing okay. My parents made the same poor decisions as most others, based on the bad input of greedy doctors. America the Beautiful.

Hi Maggie – For some reason the comments from “pussification” post from yesterday won’t load. The screen is all grayed out and can’t see the comments?

Did El Ciber insult my wife or something? Is OK. I can’t handle anything. Or – do you think it was because I insulted the Mormans?

I don’t recall ever seeing this before? Is weird. When I said on the “Question / Entrepreneur” post “can’t we all just get a long”? I was just being ironic.

Or maybe its just on my end? Let me know if it loads for you. Not a big deal?

Don’t sweat the small stuff, Jfish.

I’ve been kind of busy today. I haven’t left the house, but lots of things to deal with. I’ve glanced at the computer a couple of times, but couldn’t summon the energy to actually read anything, much less comment.

In all honesty? I don’t want to do the nursing home thing again. I took care of Nick’s Dad and put a smile on my face, a song in my heart and a no-nonsense attitude with the caregivers in my stride so they never neglected my Poppa G. But, it was not pretty. Nursing homes are like the waiting room for death and the smells, the sounds, and the suffering is overwhelming sometimes. We had better choices, but my oldest sister was afraid there were hidden costs associated with them and so I feel like she can handle this one. When it is time to die, why is it that everyone else is more concerned about saving the soon to be deceased person’s money rather than spend it on quality care?

Never mind. I know. We spent Poppa G’s money happily. He was worried about whether he had enough and I told him that if he ran out, he would just have to live in my basement here or the treehouse. We laughed and laughed about that since he was in a wheelchair and could barely stand, much less climb stairs. But that was two years ago, so I knew what was coming for my own parents.

But, the eldest sister gets to make all the decisions and so she can do the nursing home thing since she wanted to save a few dollars.

One of my rabbits appears to be getting ready to have a litter. Which is odd since she hasn’t been bred since I brought her home 26 days ago. I suspect I was sold a slutty bunny who was already impregnated by some cavalier rabbit. We’ll see what we get.

My friend in Oklahoma called to tell me her youngest sister was killed by her estranged husband. She’s black, but that doesn’t make it less tragic. She is the one I filed EEOC charges for when a manager called her a little monkey.

My old friend here in Missouri was hit head on Thursday and has broken ribs, hip, two legs, a crushed ankle and is probably going to lose one foot.

It’s been a hell of a day.

So not much goin’ on then? Ha, ha! Dang! Like I said before, one day at a time. Whenever my daughters or wife would get stressed out, I would repeat that old cliche: ” life is easy by the inch, but hard by the yard”. Hang in there! Usually, at any given time you only have to choose one of two decisions to make. It’s like a flowchart . Just pick the best one and you will be flush. I got my black belt in this stuff, if you ever want to pick my brain with specifics let me know. TTYL

And the right thing is that thing that deep down you KNOW is what you are supposed to do. All the other rationalizations try to crowd it out, but it is really obvious.

Now? The right thing is to move the damned bunny into the basement and let her give birth sometime tonight. I’m having hassenpfeffer in a couple of months.

A furry little dumpster. That’s pretty good.

The rabbit is continuing to act as if she is going to give birth, however, no progress has been made. As for the albino squirrel comment? That squirrel has some mighty long ears, you know?

I planned on raising meat rabbits, but wasn’t planning on breeding the rabbits until after the new year. Soooo Prize. And I have NO IDEA what the sire looked like and since it was a favor from a truck farmer pal who made a special trip to bring me the two females and the not mature buck (then) I assume one of his bucks got in with her before I bought her.

Ordinarily, I’d be fine with it, but it is really bad timing to have an unwed bunny giving birth.
