Meistersinger, you don't owe the world an apology for your existence, and they don't deserve the satisfaction of driving you out of it. I know I said something really snarky to you a few years ago (pot debate), and I didn't mean it kindly. I'm really sorry about saying it. From what I've seen of you here on WP, you're a really decent guy and that takes a struggle on your part. People who act degenerate are doing the easiest thing they can do, while having the audacity to call it firm, bold, blunt, or whatever nonsense they use to justify their actions.

Auntblabby, that premise reminds me of "The Wanting Seed" it was written by Anthony Burgess, the same author who wrote "A Clockwork Orange" War was like a selective population control. It's a pretty dark notion, but look at the taliban, they were composed of veterans who had to get their way, and they're monsters who behead women for refusing to marry them. Then you get vets here who think they deserve more privileges than other people, especially praise. Hell, the other day, I heard a guy brag that he "shot a ret*d in the chest" while he was in afghanistan, why the hell do these people deserve praise and the ability to guilt the populace into agreeing with them?

^^^it is that a lot of 'em get screwed over by the powers that be [especially the VA] after they are finally sent back home after umpteen deployments. so the people who are sent into that nasty place, bullies or not, deserve in full what VA bennies they get. I just avoid them as people, however, having been surrounded by them when I was a gov't employee in uniform and out over 2+ decades.

Yea being so cynical is not good to keep, maybe I'll look into some tai chi or akido to get better exercise. That always clears up the hatred. Hope you've been well btw, the WP crowd is my longest running group of friends.

Its so easy to overlook how useful cardio is too, it really does clear a lot of cobwebs.

the independent article from months ago was a good read and interesting expose but unfortunately it didn't do enough justice for me, for exposing certain cosmetics and jewelry shop workers for the bothersome pestilence they are
.
when i leave the house and mosey on downtown i would enjoy not being called out to sample expensive lotion number 57828 or indistinct men's cologne number 674928, especially when i believe i've made my body language quite clear by taking the effort to walk at the complete other side of the walkway (or as near to the road as possible on the sidewalk). i don't care if you lack patrons, they simply know not to be sucked in.

i do not care of the woman calling me over looks good, and i especially am irked by the fact that one of them, from a distance and without my glasses looks like someone i know. i was seriously misled. i hate, hate being misled in this specific way. leave it ALONE.

they operate without a permit, some of them. those that do have links to each other, no doubt. their products often conain "dead sea salt" and fittingly enough, some of the staff are Israeli themselves. (not that this irks me, but i find it interesting). it is culturally acceptable for post IDF israelis to work illegaly here, and the convoluted corporate structure of these shops often involves ties to that state.

they sold $17,000 worth of products to a man with short-term memory loss who couldn’t remember purchases he had just made. what the hell?

the owners are shadowy enough to be enigmas.

this is weird. israel aside, DON'T MESS WITH THE PERSON RECOGNITION CENTERS OF MY BRAIN, EVER AGAIN.

I'm so lonely and sad.

Same here. Have a hug.

((hug))

i'm tired. I wanna sleep, but I can't fall asleep. I can never get my schoolwork done. I don't do anything. It sucks. I don't know. I don't know what I'm good at. I don't know what I like to do. I feel like I don't have a life.
It feels like I don't know anything. I don't know what to do. I'm confused. I never have the motivation to do anything. I don't know what I wanna do in the future. I don't know what to do with my time.

I don't know what's going on. I am really, really tired.
