Back in '31, when I was pregnant with my third child, I went for a long, desperate cross country run through enemy territory. Waving my arms like a madwoman, dodging the droppings of crows flustered from the heaps of corpses left over from Napoleon's second last stand, trying to catch the eye of a sniper, searching for grenades in the deep muddy foxholes.

I've not been on Hatrack for a couple days, let's open this thread and see what's been poste- Oh. Oh. Did I interrupt something? I think I'll just uh, step around and go this way...

pps yes this. yes this is me. e/n is everything. did you wholly ingest the Pixelante thread, that was amazing
Yesssss I did. I think the whole situation lasted for what, 2 years? I was almost sad when she finally wrapped it up.
Did you get to see the Fascinator Eddie/Natalie thread before they archived it? It was like watching a train wreck in slow motion, I actually shrieked aloud at one point. Usually I stumble into a thread during the aftermath (like now!) and read the whole thing unfolding in one go. I got to observe that one evolve in real time, because I'd already been reading her other thread in A/T.

No, and I eventually have to get the archive upgrade. simultaneously to go back and watch those threads as well as be able to read people's rap sheet and bans with impunity.

Do you mean NerdyNautilusGirl's thread, where a goon ended up sending her a ticket to New Mexico because that was the only way she could get far enough away? It's still in the live forums.

My favorite thread was the man who adopted a kid who thought he was Goku, and that his girlfriend's baby was fathered by a "Vegetable" (Vegita) and the guy tried to clean him up off drugs, and set him straight only to find out the adopted boy was insane and plotting to kill him. I can't find it anymore.

quote:the reason why you see defending yourself from other people's lovely behavior as "----ing people over" is because you have literally been trained your whole life to accept being taken advantage of by other people. Until you can get yourself in therapy, you need to remind yourself that your internal compass for how to treat your family is wrong because they have abused you until you started thinking that was acceptable.
sad but true oh my god

This means, of course, that she loving broke it. I made sure the gas is of already, checked for gas leaks, and got it all sorted, but gently caress if I'm gonna pay for the repair. Neither she nor Jeanne have the money to fix the drat thing; I've decided that they can suck it. I went out and bought a space heater with my plasma money. They can just pile on the blankets. I'm not loving paying for it. I wasn't even at the house to stop it. They can go ahead and be cold.

To me, he's the least of Hatrack's Angry Teen Boy Squad because it seems like the only thing he has is his pseudo-intellectual hostility. The others may lack the maturity/self-control to act differently and at least one I'm pretty sure chooses to act that way. But they have other stuff going on. With Ori, I don't think he's got anything else to offer.
Yeah, I have no opinions about you... Like at all.

Yup. Good lord if I had been around when her sister moved her mom back in with her I would have pretty straightforwardly despaired.

My second child, carried in my matrix over the sturm and drang of the ice-age, cougar-pelted, covered in flint-chips, sigh... the thalidomide finished him off (according to the magnetic resonance). God, how I loved to paint the trichinosis, the rhinitis, no, the rhinocerii (we were pre-literate, after all) on the cave walls. Augustus, I called him. They buried him with blueberries. Primitive to those distinctions.

So now they're all saying guy fieri is a jerk, but honestly don't we all have the right to be squicked right the heck out by homosexuals, whether or not it is relevant to the murderfood carb-hindenbergs we're cramming down our gullets for quality food television

God, Sam, that video was painful. Why would you inflict that on us?
It astonished me when I realized he actually has a cameraman. That means he has a friend with him watching what he's doing and not telling him to please stop. What kind of friend would do that?
