Unfortunately I didn't get any nice cookies for the holidays, does anyone have a suggestion as to what kind of artisan cookie I should buy myself?

I'm thinking something along the lines of a medium size tin or package, I haven't had a good sugary biscuit in a while.

When I was eight or nine, I helped a friend steal a cigar from her grandmother's general store, and we smoked in the back. I took a single puff-- it was foul and made me vomit.

*WHEW*

Glad to finally get that off my chest.

When I was a boy growing up in England, stationary was very hard to come by at my preparatory school so rather than go without I would actually forge one of my instructors signature. Then it was as simple as going to the school's supply master with my forgery and I became known about the students as the boy who always had proper stationary to trade and barter.

... Wait, that wasn't me that happened to Niel Gaiman. I keep mixing those stories up.

How dare you. Apologize to me at once.
 
Posted by Rakeesh (Member # 2001) on :
 
She was clearly speaking to me, so rivka, I'm going to demand apologies for months and months, and months after THAT I'll bring it up out of nowhere when everyone but me has forgotten about it, even almost forgotten I exist.

Orincoro, of course, owes me a double-apology for attempting to appropriate *my* apology, as well as interrupting rivka when she was speaking to me.

So that's three so far. I'm sure the rest of you slack-jawed heathens owe me apologies for all kinds of stuff too, probably for cowering before moderation, so get started. None of you want to owe me still more apologies for not apologizing when commanded.

That's an extra apology owed by both of you! I'm warning you, now that you've each been warned about my warnings about your requirement to apologize, the number of apologies will begin to increase exponentially unless I see some serious groveling right. now.

And I do mean 'see'. Flights are cheaper than they've been in years.

About ten years ago, I was living in an apartment in Nashville. Just outside my door was a trapdoor opening into the attic of the building. It was partially open. There was a bird that lived in there. For weeks, it made a lot of noise in there, and it was very annoying, especially in the early morning when I was trying to sleep. One day, I waited until if flew out, then I closed the wooden cover a few inches, just enough that the bird would not fit back into it. Problem solved.

A few days later, I came out of my door, and I found the carcass of a baby bird lying under the trapdoor. I realized then what I had done. The adult bird was a mama bird, and she had babies up there. When I closed the trapdoor, she could no longer get up there to feed and care for her babies, and she was forced to abandon them. They starved. I killed baby birds. I just wanted it to go away and stop making noise. I didn't want to kill baby birds.

I cried.

When I was 14 or so, it was my job to keep the bird feeder full of bird feed. The local squirrel would jump up on it and dump out 90% of the seed to get to the few nuts. I had just finished refilling it from the last squirrel attack and gone inside when the little bastard hopped on the bird house and completely emptied it in a matter of minutes.

I decided that meant war. I grabbed up my scoped .22 lr, and laid in wait. Boom, I got the bushy tailed little menace. But once he was dying and twitching and looking cute, I felt bad. So I shot it in the face 3 or 4 times, and then it wasn't twitching or so cute anymore, and I felt really bad.

I cried and buried him in the hay field behind the barn in an old shoe box.

When I was like six or seven, I lost one of the little plastic guns from my transformers toy and opened a package in the store to take the gun from it.

After two days of playing with the new gun, my guilt was sufficient enough to beg my mother to return me to the store, where I slipped the gun back into the same package I'd opened.

And it was the perfect crime, too.

Well, they were the little tiny 1 cent kind. You put two or three in, get them going, and add more one at a time. Six makes a fairly satisfying wad of gum.

We knew the machine would give up gumballs if you jiggled it just so, so we waited for the cashier to go to the back of the store and got as many out as we could. She caught us in the act and we ran out of the store.

I later returned with 6 pennies for the gumballs. I don't think I've consciously taken anything from a store without paying since.

I'm actually 22, which is also the age I tell everyone here I am.

I started High School when I was 13 years old, so I lied about my age to almost all of my friends. (it's easy to pull off when you're 6' 2" as a 13 year old)

Also, when I was 13, I told everyone online I was 18. (which seemed incredibly old and grown up at the time) I suppose it had a positive effect - behavior and opinions that would be tolerated or seen as amusing coming from a 13 year old were very quickly and thoroughly exposed by people who thought I was an immature 18 year old. It let me develop the conversational skills to appear far older than my actual age, which helped a lot in school.

I've never fully understood this. When I was a kid around older people, I reveled in the fact that I was so young and able to converse with people older than me. And then it stopped mattering. In fact, once I hit my twenties and beyond I was sort of sad because nobody ever did a double take when they heard my age.
 
Posted by Dogbreath (Member # 11879) on :
 
Try this,

Before they know you're 13:

"That's an interesting point Dogbreath, I disagree because of blah blah..."

After they know you're 13:

"I realize in many ways that's how it seems to you, Dogbreath, and I support your efforts to express yourself, but I think as you grow older and experience more of life you'll come to see blah blah..."
 
Posted by Dan_Frank (Member # 8488) on :
 
Oh sure, but then you know who's an ageist D-Bag and who isn't, and can proceed accordingly!

I guess high school is a different boat though, what with the bullying and stuff. I skipped HS altogether, so I can't fairly comment.
 
Posted by Dogbreath (Member # 11879) on :
 
High School is a much different boat. The sort of things girls want to do and say to a little on the skinny side 15 year old are things they'd never dream of with a 13 year old. [Smile] It was mostly an issue of respect (bullying was never an issue) - despite what they may claim, teenagers have an immense amount of respect for age. And so do adults.

Were you home schooled?
 
Posted by Dan_Frank (Member # 8488) on :
 
Public school as a child, home schooled for a year or two after school became progressively lousier and lousier, then college courses replacing what would roughly be junior high/high school.

I was not especially big for my age (always been decidedly average sized, except perhaps these days, where I am average sized with an above average midsection [Wink] ), so there really wasn't any way to hide the fact that I was 13(or 14, or even 15) in classes mostly full of 20somethings.

I absolutely agree that ageism is pretty pervasive in our society. I do find it to be the worst in young people, though, who have a tendency not just to dismiss people trivially younger than them, but also dismiss themselves out of hand. "Oh, I used to think t hat back when I was a stupid teenager. Weren't we all stupid teenagers?"

Also presumably because publicly wanting one provides opportunities for the community to come together and derail your demand into an amusing thread.

(Note: I really don't know what BB did to you, so for all I know you really are completely justified in wanting one, but frankly at this point I'm not sure I care much. Making a thread to declare that you're owed an apology seems much more like a cry for attention and less like an attempt to rationally state your case. It's passive aggressive and whiny, which ultimately wins you very little sympathy.)

You did get me to look at your posting history (since I surmised from your member number and your registration date that you are not just new to all this) and the majority of your posts (in the range until I lost interest) are about this perceived injustice.

Well, it's not quite up there with the worst thing I've ever done.

I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, I made a noise like I was puking, and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

Posted by Dan_Frank (Member # 8488) on :
 
When I was about 7, I stole a dollar bill from an unattended donation jar at a Buddhist center my mom worked at. I bought ice cream. It was the bitterest ice cream I've ever eaten. The next time I was at that center, I put all of the allowance I'd earned in the interim into the jar. I remember feeling like it was a lot of money but it was probably in the $5-$10 range.

I would love say that was the only time I ever stole, but it's not.

Just a few years ago I was at a little kiosk getting a copy of a key made. The employee was very rude, the price seemed unusually high, and I was in a hurry. I set a small pack of elastic cords on the counter with the actual copies, nonverbally indicating I wanted to buy them. I realized as I was paying that she hadn't rung me up for them, and I didn't say anything when she bagged them up with the keys.

I felt sort of bad walking back to my car, until every elastic in the pouch broke as I tried to use them (while still sitting in the car). I decided it was pretty much a wash after that.

The key I got there wasn't great, either.

Sometimes you make up lots of stories just so the real story doesn't seems so weird, so that nobody really notices it when it comes out, it's just another one. In other words, most of it's just camouflage, or mainly bullshit--depending on your privileged or poetic diction, that is. What does comes as a surprise, after the years of accretion, is how that one real story, buried deep and so obscured that it's even hard to remember how it went, or what actually happened, well I wanted to say how the very shape of that story has turned out to inform the shape of all the others laid upon it. In fact, it might turn out to be just the shape of one sentence, or a word: Run.

Sometimes you make up a lot of obscure words and post them on forums just so everyone thinks you're an eloquent cyberpoet.
 
Posted by Samprimary (Member # 8561) on :
 
seriously, 'accretion?' 'diction?' 'inform?' all clearly made up words
 
Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :
 
Interestingly, the one made-up word in that exchange, as far as I can tell, is "cyberpoet."
 
Posted by Rakeesh (Member # 2001) on :
 
I think she probably meant 'made up a lot of obscure words' in the sense of 'made them up as a post'. Not in the sense that deerpark is actually attempting to create new words. If she meant that, I doubt she'd have described them as 'obscure', as that word directly states they have a meaning already.
 
Posted by Dogbreath (Member # 11879) on :
 
The only word in that post that was even slightly obscure is "accretion", and even if you don't know it, the meaning is easy to deduce in the context given. Deerpark uses it effectively, by which I mean succinctly and eloquently.

Also, we're on the Internet. While I'm not necessarily promoting the use of obscure words just to be abstruse, looking up a word only takes a few seconds.

The elder brother could not help but wonder when his little sister would grow up and act her age. He had certainly never vidcorded himself doing cartwheels. No, at the ripe age of seven, Ivan knew everything.
Celeste quickly put herself between him and the corder as Ivan erupted into her room, already surveying the work to be done. “Stop being silly Celeste, or Captain Greybeard will choke you dead in your dreams.” I wish the old geazer would. The old sailor peered down fiercely from the painting on the wall at all that met his gaze. His eyes seemed to assure a swift death to those before him, after he finished the tobacco in his pipe of course.
The spectator to this spectacle watched apathetically in silence. He of course remembered these events, and what he thought when he first witnessed them, but it was odd to “hear” the thoughts left unspoken.

Well then, don't hold back, champ!

I said I wouldn't use his email address even if I knew it, so you respond by explaining how to get his email address. Brilliant.

Hey man don't worry, you can just let it all out!

We can all read what you have to say here!

C'mon tiger!

No. Brilliant is acting (Post edited by Janitor Blade), year after year, alias after alias, and then expecting people to still care what you have to say. Particularly when talking about a respected moderator.

Kwea: Please stop attacking Ace of Spades. He's clearly trying to get people to break the TOS so I am forced to moderate in his favor.

AOS: I'm really getting tired of this game. If you have no intention of actually talking about your supposed grievances with me via email, then your bringing them up again and again constitutes not posting in good faith. Stop posting about it here.

I guess I can jump right to the punchline here too.

Saying "I have nothing to say that I wouldn't want everyone to read" and then declining to do anything of substance publicly is a great way to say the same thing: it's not posting in good faith, it's pointlessly agitating.

Hooray?

Pointlessly Agitating would be a good band name.

I remember how appalled I was when I found out someone was already using the moniker Fatboy Slim. That felt gravely unjust.

I haven't posted about it since January 10, almost a month ago. You're the only one bringing it up now.

Could this be a Telltale Heart situation?

No it couldn't. And it doesn't matter if you bring it up triannually. If you aren't serious about discussing it in private, where it should be discussed, if at all, then I'm not permitting you to troll people by posting about it here.

I hear-by vote for a Hatrack ignore button. I think everyone in the thread knows why.

Until then I'll just post IGNORED. [Big Grin]
