I doubt it...I don't think she's been on the board much lately. Like everything revolves around you. :)

what, it doesnt;?

what the fuck. I was assured that i was the center of the universe.......
well, i'm still the center of my own attention. alone, restless, breakfast table in an otherwise empty room.

Actually you're the only one on the buddy list.

i am truly honored. no really.

This is a message board, what possible difference could it make if someone else is on at any given moment? If you post, anyone that cares to can read it, even lurkers. Buddy list? Ignore list? It's all a bunch of bullshit, Christ I feel like I'm in High School.:vomit:

yeah, those lurkers freak me out man......

c'mon, lurker, show yourself.

I agree and I hereby deeply apologize to Radar for making fun of him. Radar, your wit and eloquence are something we all (myself included) should emulate. Hats off to you, big guy. (teehee):p

i feel like you went to high school with christ. ;)

......newsflash.....

it's getting very dark and stormy right now, and the salesmen are standing on the stoop clapping for the brilliant flashes of lightning. like it's a fireworks display.........

and you guys wonder why i'm wierd......i hang around these retards all day.

Hmmmmmm.:rolleyes:

Oh, give it a break, Bruce. I'm just kidding around. In all sincerity, I actually would be willing to agree to disagree with Radar, but he shut off that option. (shrugs shoulders) Besides, I was going to take a ride in the mountains today, only instead it rained, so I'm stuck here with nothing to do. You know what they say about idle minds... ;)

Well if he is blocking off most of th people he disagrees with to the point of annoyance ( and thats what his list looks like to me ) then he isnt willing to engage in flamefests at all. If he just flips a switch whenever someone pisses him off so that their posts are no longer there for him to read, then he seems to me to be studiously avoiding getting into any flamefests.

.......Seems odd to me. I dont much see the point of engaging in forum communities if you are just going to sieve out anything you dont like. In the real world RADAR and I could not share air within 100 metres of each other without launching into hostility I am quite sure....But on a forum it's a chance to hear an entirely different point of view......It's also a chance to play out some of that hostility (against the "enemy") in a semi friendly way .....

I'll admit I am actually surprised to find RADAR of all people blocking posts ......I figured him more open to the fight than that.

*remove head from ass* continue conversation. Radar - i am not a big supporter of entitlement programs paid for by tax money - but damn dude - taxes are not a violation of your rights, not all services are evil, and noone is stealing from you.

well, you know what they say about people who only play with themselves???

I agree with you, on both counts.

When a family takes care of a profoundly retarded member, they should watch out for them, in every sense of the word, because they can't watch out for themselves. They're too trusting and can be taken advantage of too easily because they don't understand the consequences of what they do. But when the people are in an institution, there should be a safety net. I know that when I worked at the mental hospital, a few of the patients got pregnant, even with staff members watching them.

One thing I've noticed is that once family members put someone in an institution, it's like that person no longer exists for them. I saw a few family members visit some of the patients, but for the most part, you'd think these people hatched out of eggs and didn't have family. One girl had been there for almost 20 years, and her family just abandoned her there.
