Is this your way of defending your lady?

Its good to give straight forward hard advice but when one resorts to insults it all becomes anti helpful. It just creates attacks all around.

Nefer is the best example of giving good advice and being a hard ass when she needs to without resorting to being a total cunt.



You pop off with enough asshole remarks of your own to make you a total hypocrite. You know who hypocrites are Days?

In any event, I don't endorse tearing someone down just for the sake of it. There is a difference between being blunt/honest and degrading.



You didnt answer my question. And no I am not a hypocrite. I am an asshole yes, but I dont tear people down just for the hell of it like some people.

You aren't an asshole. Italian, yes, but not an asshole. I have a deep suspicion you might be in possession of one. An asshole that is...okay, having entirely too much fun with this.

Oh, and Days.

One of the keys to victory when attacking someone is knowing more about your opponent than they know about you. You've made repeated posts about my woman trying to gain my attention and you have it now. The thing is, if you want to make this personal and drag personal shit into this discussion, you should consider whether I know more about you, than you know about me. In this case, I can humiliate you, but I have more class than you so I chose to refrain 🙂

this thread is ridiculous.

it all can be explained by mercury....

when i talk shit.........(sag merc)

a sag in merc understands exactly what i'm saying (sarcasm and tongue in cheek for the most part with some serious points put in there when i give a shit to really contribute)

a virgo in merc will immediately take offense and start a debate

an aries in merc will jump into the conversation and compete with my sarcasm, while trying to outwit me

a libra in merc will try to bring the conversation to a fair and even balance so everyone sees all sides

a scorpio in merc will reiterate what i said and then add sexual undertones 😛

a cap in merc will just leave, annoyed

an aqua in merc tries to figure out what i'm really saying and usually is spot on to the point i'm trying to make. he'll repeat it in his own words so everyone understands.

a leo in merc will ignore my comments and talk about themselves

a taurus in merc will just watch and throw in witty quips and make points i want to argue

a pisces in merc will take the shit way out of context and start another topic out in left field somewhere

a cancer in merc will call me a bully

a gemini in merc will take notes and use my words against me in another thread that has nothing to do with anything

so, my point being. NOBODY GIVES A FUCK AND HAS THEIR OWN AGENDA ANYWAYS.

thank you, thank you very much for your time 😄




All this effort and minimal responses? Ahhhh, I'll stroke your extraordinary ego since none else has bothered.

A poor and inaccurate summation of the various mercury positions.

Please, I'd fast for two days to experience that.

Steak, lots of steak and eggs plz.

Toast too eh? Buttered. Fuck the jam.



How dare you say 'eff the jam', I make it homemade. 😛 LOL

I like sweets on the occasion, but I'm more inclined to hearty sauces and meats. Steak/mashed taters and some steamed broccoli are a fine meal to me. I don't need my plate done up pretty if the the flavor/texture have been given due attention.

I do think it's awesome that you prepare your own jams. I have some questions for you!

Canning meat and anything low acid requires a pressure canner. Have too. Water bath canning is no good for it, you need to blitz it properly so that bacteria levels are as low as possible. Botulism is nothing to screw with. And yes. When I put up sauces, ketchup, chili sauce, BBQ, etc. it'll keep with no flavor loss for up to a year ( like it lasts that long ). Green beans, peas, corn and so on is easily blanched and frozen. Quick shock in boiling water, plunged into an ice water bath, drained and bagged in good freezer bags. 6 months I think is optimal use time for best flavor. You can preserve any meat you like. A bit of beef base popped into venison is nice, cuts any gamey flavor. Fall apart tender and has its own stock for Bambi and noodles or whatever else you'd like to use it for ( like pulled meat for BBQ sandwiches ). I've not canned fish, but it's done with good results. And any meat you can put up stew or chilis with. Just crack a jar or two, make some fresh bread and call it dinner.

I like this topic. Who is the "right" audience?



The people that reply with sympathy to a poster embroiled in a ridiculous situation. Why would you reinforce someone's internal dialogue of bs when they actually need to get slapped across the face by reality. There are many people here that get labeled as mean and brash when the reality is, they are the ONLY mother fuckers trying to REALLY help. P-Angel is a fine example. She's consistently branded as mean and bitchy when the reality is, she was trying to help.

People get so ruffled over the delivery that they fail to see the real message. Who cares if the words were "mean" if the message actually helps? I'm not trying to glorify anyone here, I'm simply saying that being nice is dumb when it harms other people.

IE, if someone posts about how much their life sucks, what the fuck is the point of posting some fake ass "Im sorry your life sucks" when the reality is, the person needs to hear someone that may actually help them out. Even if that something isn't necessarily nice. Does a drunk need to hear sympathy and nice words about their drinking problem? No, they need to get their drinks taken away and become the recipient of a swift kick in the ass.

That's what I mean about adversity. What does being nice actually amount to when it's really harmful?
