Hey you, reading this right now. Yes YOU. Do you want to read the ramblings of an insane psychopath? If your answer is yes than look no further than Lester Cathans posts. Just remember if you start pounding your head against the wall don't come crying to me. I did warn you so don’t come whining to me about your newfound brain damage. Anyway, here is the link:

It's a good start. Upgrade the barbed wire to poison-coated razor wire. I'd also grab a few of those chain guns like the one used in Superman Returns.

We should also wage some psychological warfare.

1. Ban any image or mention at YABS of a certian "Highlander" actor...

2. Next find and constatly play the Buggs Bunny episode where Buggs calls Elmer Fudd "Nimrod." It lead to the sarcastic mockery of a once great Assyrian hunter.

This will keep the strike alive. :eek: ;)

Not in this case no. The seller has only had two complaints since 2001 and the buyer has his own ebay computer store that sells nothing but computers. Both are legit. What does get to me is that I don't know what that high bid is. For all I know the winner bid is only ten dollars higher than mine but I doubt that as all of the products they sell are just below retail.

I'm sure there is a computer term for this, but in order to get the best deals I have what I call the diving hawk approach. I watch an item very closely, and then right when the action going to close I bid at the last minute, which avoids a bidding war.

I've heard of this - some people calling it sniping. I've done it too when I really wanted something at a low bid. Usually, I enter my highest amount right off the bat, then I avoid any bidding wars.

As a long time ebay user,i have used it for some of my hobbies,mainly Collectable Card Games. I have at one time or another played hundreds(literally) CCG's starting for Magic Alpha. I even sold my collection a few years back to buy a NEW car(was not playing anymore...sigh). As of now,i have,due to money concerns,play one game now: Raw Deal,based on WWE.
Due to the allocations of ultra rare cards(they release about 30 ultra rares a set,yet only put 3-4 in a box),i have to turn to the secondary market to get my full sets,namely EBay and private sellers. I just look up what i am looking for,mark down the ENDING dates,and then when those dates arrive i check to see how much it is selling. If it is in my price range,i buy,usually at the last 2 minutes. THIS saves me the anxiety time of wondering if i am going to win the auction or am i going to be sniped out of it,since i AM the sniper. I took the time,ahead of time,to arrange myself to be there,have the funds to purchase,and to spend the time to buy. I also REFUSE a credit Card purchases,so i make sure that i either make arrangements with friend to buy any Paypal auctions or i make sure i buy items that will accept Money Orders or Western Union. Or Cash.

So ANYWAY....!!!

Yes, I'm back!!!

So, here's what I dealt with ... we had these two kids come in, they were like ... geez, some bizarro Romeo and Juliet type double suicide pact. If you add in a couple gallons of alcohol and crack. The girl died, the guy is barely hanging on, prolly won't make it. Buncha other things. Couple sex crimes. OH and worked on a kid yesterday, poor thing. She pulled through though! I made a card for her, she's prolly gunna wake up sometime this week with all the medication she's on though! One of the kids in ped that I play den mommy too!

MEANWHILE, Looks like Kris and Sam are bonding!!! I mean, I looked outside my window and geez they're shooting arrows into the wall! They're SUPPOSED to use a straw target! OH and MacQuarrie ... YES WE GO SHOOTING!!!

ANNNND ... looks liek a certain member of the community has gone nuts! Oh well! Not really sure if I should put him on ignore or not! I mean ... sure, Kriskris did, but he's kinda ... entertaining! I dunno, prolly will put him on ignore, I guess!

AND THEN I COME HOME AND SEE MY BELOVED THREAD LOCKED!!!! Sooo ... I'm gunna have Sam make up an OzBat voodoo doll! Guess I'm lucky I have a sister who knows how to sew!

AND THEN THE CROWNING INDIGNITY!!! Gaz and BlairH were HUMILIATED by DX! How are they gunna get the tag gold now!!!

Oh well! At least I had some great sex with Kristin when I got back! Although Gilda was too! I guess we're ALL happy tonight!!!

And WhiteRose is here too! AND I made a drawing for Karen El who really liked it! Yeah ... good times!

Given the topic of conversation here, I thought this a relevant repost:

"I like to look at naked women. I love breasts, any kind. I love 'em! Boobs, bazooms, balloons, bags, bazongas. The bigger, the better. Nipples like udders, nipples like saucers, big pale rosy-brown nipples. Little bitty baby nipples. Real or fake, what's the difference? I like tits. Who's kidding who? Tits are great!"

That said,i am not posting alot,and lot less healthy,and need less stress,not more,and not allowing myself to take sick leave or miss work(and going into my hell months,November and December VERY soon),i am not going to post much here at all anymore.

The Vagina Game is funnier when played as The Cooter Game -- mainly because "cooter" is a funnier word than "vagina." The Vagina Game, I imagine, is played by white-gloved society mavens while sipping Earl Grey and dining on cucumber sandwiches -- their twinkling, snooty chuckles evaporating in mid-air like misremembered daydreams. The Cooter Game, on the other hand, belongs to The People and is just as at home in the back-alleys of the working classes as it is at an ice-cream social.

In the many years my friends and I have been playing The Cooter Game, nothing has beat Fried Green Cooters.

(Incidentally, "cucumber" spelled backwards is "rebmucuc.")

Nice one.

Unfortunately, you're stuck with just me for now. Those are six sweet little letters. Well, five, but one repeats.

:)

By the way, here's the Bloom reference Noah was talking about from the old thread:


Hmmmm... the interpretation I've always preferred is that ninjas and pirates are the two fundamental archetypes of humankind, and that ultimately one must be one or the other.

It's kind of like Harold Bloom's thesis in Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human except that it makes more sense.

That joke was mostly for Gilda, I admit.

The basic argument being that Shakespeare in effect invented what we think of as human personality and it's through connection to the basic archetypes he created and which became models for humanity, chiefly in Falstaff and Hamlet, respectively the pirate and ninja of the modern iteration, that we define ourselves. These archetypes have become so profoundly intertwined in human society that we instinctively connect to them not recognizing that they are deliberate human creations, not a basic condition of human identity.

The key to Bloom's thesis is that Shakespeare invented these archetypes rather than capturing them better than anybody before or since. Bloom is much smarter than I am and knows much more about Shakespeare than I do. He's also wrong.

However it is a nice parallel in that the modern conception of the pirate and ninja aren't reflective of any kind of realism, they are conceptualized forms on which modern ideas are imposed, and therein lies Bloom's major flaw. Shakespeare didn't invent the aspects of personality as Bloom gives him credit for doing, he rather recognized and depicted them in such a way as to give them focus and definition, so powerfully that subsequent iterations in artistic depictions came in line with how he saw them, and such depictions in turn have managed to focus personality and societal development in profound ways.

Think of it this way. 30's gangsters did not initially talk and dress like movie versions. Gagster speak was invented by writers, to make their gangsters sound cool. However, it did come to be a reflection of real life eventually, in that real life gangsters saw and loved these movies, and would emulate the manner of speaking and dress and mannerisms, either because they thought it was cool, or because they thought other gangsters really behaved that way. In any case, it actually became part of the subculture, and permeated throughout, eventually taking on a life of its own so that gangsters did speak and dress and act like movie gangsters to an extent. So it might be said that gangsters were invented by the movies.

This is what Bloom is saying, that western personality and thought were invented by Shakespeare, and society over the centuries came to reflect his inventions. If we return to the gangster movie example, we can see the underlying flaw. Gangsters weren't invented in the movies. They already existed, and their stylized portrayal in the movies in time had an effect on the perception of real life gangsters, both by the public and by the gangsters themselves, but at most we can say that the movies gave focus and influenced perception, both from outside and inside to something that already existed.

Shakespeare did the same, but to a lesser degree, and wasn't the only one. Others did it before him. He's the Isaac Newton of Western thought regarding language and related arts, sure, but somewhat less influential than Bloom claims.

Bloom has some wonderful ideas and insights, but there's some serious fanwankery going on here.

I enjoyed writing that. Dear lord I am actually the dullest person on the planet.

I went back and found it for myself, but thanks. I pretty much agree with everything you wrote regarding Bloom. I love reading Bloom, but some of the time it's like watching Fox News, except I yell at paper rather than glass.

You should check out Geoffrey Klock's HOW TO READ SUPERHERO COMICS AND WHY which, as the title suggests, looks at some superhero comics from the '80s to about 2001 or 2002. Its a nice balance of keen observations and sheer craziness, much like the guy Klock takes his cues from. I tend to dismissively refer to it as HOW TO READ SUPERHERO COMICS I REALLY REALLY LIKE AND WHY, but it's still an engaging read (even if he relies on Bloom way too much, and tries to shoehorn Bloom in where Bloom doesn't quite fit).

Gail has never banned anyone. What happens is another mod, whose idenity is usually a mystery, comes in realizes what's going and bans a person on Gail's behalf. It's a miracle that hasn't happened to me yet, but I odds are it will due to the fact my inhibitions tend to dissapear while I'm online.

And geez, if ANYONE needs to be traumatized, it's jr. high kids! But Daddy is a pretty good teacher, so they were all well behaved and all. I bet if we brought WhiteRose in to yell at 'em, they'd be silent until their mid-thirties!

Why is it that all women own a billon pair of shoes? I own three pairs of shoes. One pair is for work, One pair is for chruch and fromal occasions (which to be honest just sits in the closet) and the final pair is for when I'm on the street. Every girlfriend I've ever had has had more pairs of shoes than their are days in the month, and I was always afraid to ask for fear of not getting laid. I've also never been able to ask the question after a break up, because it's been my experience that just becase you break up, doesn't mean that there still isn't the possibilty of sex from time to time.

WhiteRose
09-28-2006, 12:23 AM
Dude, the new pair brings my total up to...five. Two pairs of joggers, a pair of kickass heels, a pair of boots and sandles. I don't understand women with fifty thousand of the same make in different colours.

I pretty much wear my joggers all the time. The boots and sandles are for work, and the heels are for formal stuff. There's hockey boots and thongs too, but they're pretty much exclusive for sport or beach stuff and thus not counted.

WhiteRose
09-28-2006, 02:03 AM
And now, in loving memory of the Ann Coulter thread:

I first met it through Lester, I think, after it was ravaged by lesbians. From what I knew of it, it had been a grand thread of wacky hijinks perpertrated by that even grander fool, Ann Coulter, thus making me steer clear of it completely for the first 100 or so pages. But it wormed it's way in and touched me, deep down, much like tapeworm, and I grew to love it so.

'Ann Coulter is not a very nice person' was born on the 8th of June, 2006, at 10.52pm AusEST. It weighed in at a controversial 120 lbs of stupidity, and quickly grew into 60-or so page monstrosity of politics and gay marriage, before Gail asked for it's execution (pg 68).

Her futile pleas went unheard, however, and Sabrinaset RetCon punched it the very next page (69) (HAH), and the boys found themselves as the cast of the Disney Princesses. TC was very proud of his new boobs, and Spike-X was proud to be covering them. And there was much rejoicing.

Then WatsonGlen returned with his bible, but this was quickly headed off with the appearance of Man-Faye. And there was much rejoicing...I think. I don't know. Was it truly THAT necessary an evil, Lester?

Jesus, then he came back again. Bear in mind, I'm typing this while flicking back through the pages. Fuck, that boy didn't know when to shut up. Ugh, and he goes on and on...

Holy crap, Sabrina gets naked on-thread for the first time, after finding the Adamantium +5 Glove of Retcon-Punching didn't take as she'd hoped, Cam and Red Berens failing with their drunken antics, and SK's 10+ Boots of Butt-Kicking didn't threaten those still bible-bashing into submission. Gwah. PAGE 80!

WHAT IS HE? MADE OF FUCKING STONE? Ugh. Gilda...also gets naked. There is trends of nekkidness beginning to run rampant. Kris is mentioned in nekkid posting, and most men stopped in their tracks. Because no one could fight Sabrina's logic regarding two naked lesbians in the same room.

There were webcams. Paul McEnery decided to get in on the nekkid action.

Finally, Watson is banned. And the lesbians succeed in the takeover by page 83....for a while. Then there was gloves of irony. It's all pretty damn funny, actually. BAM, right in the nose!

Then they took over for real...with orgies. Dear lord, I missed ALL THAT!?

And it became forever known as that wacky lesbian hang-out thread cleverly disguised as politics.

If the thread taught me anything, it was that all conflict could be solved with nekkidness and boobs. Sadly, the thread perished on the 26th of September, 2006, at 10.48pm AusEST aged 3 months and 18 days and 6976 posts.

All right I will admit that probably the only typical 'girly' trait I have is that I probably do have an excessive amount of shoes. I have a job for all of them though! I mean, I have three pairs of sneakers but that's because I have one 'everyday' pair, one pair to work out in (so I don't ruin my everyday pair) and one pair that I walk/jog in. I could use my jogging sneakers to work out in but the gym requests that we have shoes that we don't wear outside so that the mats in the gym don't get ruined. So there's three pairs right there!

Now my mom, she could put Imelda Marcos to shame. She has to have twenty pairs of dressy shoes but she and my dad go out maybe twice a month.

I have about 30 pairs of shoes. I go through four to six pairs of runners every year, and I wear heels to work nearly every day, and most of the time when we're going out somewhere other than an amusement park. Shopping, the mall, a restaurant, a movie or concert, I'm in nice shoes with some kind of a heel for all those.

Why? Because dressing nicely and femininely makes me feel good about myself, even if on occasion there's a slight physical discomfort involved. I wear a bra for the same reason.

I dunno. I think I had a mini nervous breakdown today during lunch. Started crying and shaking and everything, and well, I was thinking .... if it hadn't been for what happened to me when I was 13, would I be where I am now ... and I was like ... SHOULD I be who I am? I mean, maybe I shouldn't be here, should have really been an artist or straight or whatever ... and I'm wondering if I'm living a lie or something. I was totally shaking and all.

So, I asked for a lighter load for the rest of the shift, and the super said "sure", cuz I'm usually trying to take up the slack when I can anyways, but I was verrry shaken for the rest of the day, and called up Kris and cried to her. So she'll be home soon and all.

AAAnyways, I'm feeling better now, maybe my brain just misfired or something. I'll cheer myself up by writing something bizarre on le blog of WhiteRose. That always makes me smile.

And, I only own six pairs of shoes.

You feeling ok now girly? *hugs*

Seriously, don't doubt where you are at this moment. You got to this point and are meant to be there, regardless of what happened in the past. We'd all go crazy if we started thinking about where our lives could've ended up if we'd made a different decision or took a different action somewhere along the way.

Heck, I could probably be on my way to some kinda phD if I hadn't dumbed myself down a bit in highschool to fit in. It happens. But you're a good kid and you do good work, so never doubt that Bree.

Okay, I just posted on le blog. I feel better already. But I think S(heila)J prolly hates me. Prolly already thinks I'm insane. Sooo ... I think I'll stop posting on le blog for awhile. I'm scaring WhiteRoses girly.

Great, I depressed myself again. Now I better post on hellokittykats blog. She never judges me!

One thing my momma always told me: We don't get to look into the Book of Alternate Possibilities, and that's probably a good thing. Maybe you wouldn't be who you are, but how do you know that this other you would be happier, more successful, or above all, a better person?

Maybe you would be an artist now instead of a doctor... and maybe that artist would be feeling dissatisfied and useless, saying "I draw pictures; other people are saving lives, and I sit here drawing pictures."

If the grass is greener on the other side, it's because there's a bigger pile of manure over there.

Would you be straight? Nobody knows. Maybe, maybe not. Female sexuality appears to be more influenced by experience than the male of the species, but really, it's a moot point. Would you be happier if you were straight? Probably not. The really important stuff doesn't depend on gender. You have somebody who loves you, and whom you love. If you were straight, you might have a guy instead. He might be a jerk. He might not understand you the way Kris does.

We play the hand we're dealt, and the surest road to misery and despair that I can think of is to get caught up in "woulda shoulda coulda." Don't waste energy or emotion on what might have been. Be here now. It's all any of us can do.

Or, to put it in geek terms, maybe Bruce Wayne wouldn't have become Batman if not for the murder of his parents. He would have been spared a lifetime of trauma. But maybe he would have ended up a useless, self-absorbed, shallow, materialistic jerk who made other people miserable. Maybe. Or maybe not. Who can say?

I'd give anything for you to not have gone through what you did, but it happened and it's part of you now, and it's part of what makes you special. Nobody's ever going to say "thank God you went through that", but I will say thank God you turned that pain into something positive. And maybe that pain won't ever go away, but at least you have friends who can try to help you bear it.

She doesn't hate you at all. Believe me, she deals with weirder in her classes. In fact she finds you quite amusing, if a little obsessed with vibrators :p

I don't know where you're getting this 'hate' thing from.

I was going to say something about the breakdown thing. But really, almost everything I wanted to say, Mac's already written and way more eloquently. All I can add is that the only thing I think anyone can do is be the best person they can with the circumstances life throws at them. And with what life threw at you, you've become a wonderful, smart, funny, quirky, sweet, silly, cool chick, with a kickass family, a wonderful girl who loves you and you do a job that means people are alive to spend time with their loved ones that wouldn't have been otherwise. That's pretty awesomely amazing to me. :)

2 weeks after never. No new tag team can win the belts if they don't do so before the next new team debuts.

And I sorta like the gag, but good lord/lady, I don't think you've responded to a single post of mine genuinely since you started it...

Not a huge deal. But it is mildly annoying when I'm being totally sincere. Partly because i don't see it happen with anyone else...

It's strange how we as a people always focus on the things we have no control over. We let that which can never make us happy anger us the most, and thusly are usually pretty misserable. But if you want to be truely content, and this includes times of illness, physical pain, financial debt, and heart ache...

All you'll ever have to do is center yourself on what you can control. There is a remarkably small amount of things we have in life that we can excert control over, if you focus all your worry on those, you will not only feel less of a burden but see a more positive impact from your efforts.

I started this a long time ago, and altho I still get frustrated a lot, I lead a much more contented life. I can't control my health, the fact that I cant work and thus will never be able to offerd to live on my own, or the fact that I've never spent a single day where I wasn't sick or physically sore due to medical conditions I was born with or got by the age of 2 from medical treatment.

I never complain about any of that, it in all truthfulness doesn't bother me. I put my priorities on family, friends, what games I play, what I read, what I'm writing. And over the past 10 years (since I was 16) I really am content with the life I've made. It's by no means great, but its the best I could do with what I had and thats all that really matters.

Yeah, I mean, it's not like she makes constant references to my shoes, is it?

Bree, you are successful because you chose to make yourself so. Whether the event in question precipitated that, we can never really know. We can know that how you chose to handle that has made you the person you are, that you are successful as a result of hard work and focus and determination, and wherever those things came from, they are a part of who you are now. You are a good, strong person who does good things for other people. You have a bright future in front of you. You didn't let events in your past destroy you, as they might have some.

I do the same thing sometimes. Everyone does. On the good days what I see is that my past led me to where I am, and where I am right now is a good place to be. As time goes by, maybe I'll have more good days.

In the probably temporary good news department, I talked to my brother, and it seems my mom left stepfather #3. She and their kids are at my brother's place for the time being, which means they're safe. Alas, I say temporary, because she's done this twice before, and she always goes back. I did get to speak with my brother for the first time in two years, and my sister for the first time since last Christmas, so that was nice.

Wow!

I've never figured out why women do that. I mean, go back to abusive males. Must be some flaw in our genetic programming or sumthin. I mean, I must have treated ... uhm, more than several women for domestic abuse, going back to when I was an intern, cuz when a battered woman comes in, it's either myself or the couple other women doctors who haveta be there ... and there aren't that many where I am, relatively speaking, so I deal with a LOT of sexual issues here ... and every supervising doc says the same thing ALL THE TIME: "She'll be back with the perpetrator next week." And they're always right! OR they won't press charges.

Oh, and I'm on a first-name basis with ALL the female police officers here for pretty much the same reason, as I'm sure you can guess. I'll bet if I was pulled over by one of them I'd get a pass on a ticket by now. I'm ... well not part of the Blue Shield. I guess I'm part of the Pink Shield!

Look at it this way.
1. You are with in love with a person that loves you back.
2. You have an absolutely wonderful family.
3. In addition to making a shit load of money, you have a job where at the end of the day you can say with all honesty that the world, thanks to your own two hands, is a better place. Think of all the people who would be dead, or will be dead if Dr Sabrina is on the case.
4. You mentioned before that your artistic work brings joy and comfort to children that have been horribly burned, which makes you a very important artist in my opinion.

If you focus on what could have been, you'll drive yourself insane as there were an infinite amount of variables that contributed to who you are as a person. It's much more rational to focus on who you are and where you are going and, heaven forbid, ibut f you die today, you can do so without regrets which is more than most people can say.

As someone who has totally gone that route, I think, as a social worker, there is a part of me that wants to 'fix' people and help them.

Yes, I'm quite aware in the end people can only choose to help THEMSELVES, but I'm an idiot.

Well, we're not sure if this one hits her or not. She says no, but she's said that about boyfriends and SF#1 also, and I know #1 hit her and me on a pretty regular basis, and at least two boyfriends who lived with us.

The scarcity of female doctors seems a little strange to me. Female enrollment in med school in the US reached parity with males in 2003, in and now there are slightly more women than men.

You know, that's actually the worst part of being where I am. I mean ... all I can do is help patch up the body, but fixing their attitudes or lives ... nothing I can do about that
