URGENT

Question:

I can only rationalize her accuracy with the tarot by assuming her chemical imbalance was allowing her to tap into something and to access parts of her brain that we don’t normally use everyday.

You are the FIRST person whom I have heard ever say that theory.  I’ve been saying that for years.  Wow.  We actually AGREE on something!  Mark it down folks–  historic day here…  I think that other 90% of the brain that we don’t use, taps into the kinetic/psychic energy, and because of obvious cultural and religious stereotypes, we remain closed off to it.  Wow.  This is cool DQ. I think though, that the psychic connection probably only takes up another 5 or 10% of the brain, and the rest, we haven’t even begun to understand or fathom. — Opus (: "I wish the stage were as high and narrow as a tightrope so that only the most highly trained would dare to venture out upon it." –Goethe http://www.carla.coble.com -Acting site http://members.home.net/coble/OpusGraphics -Original graphics http://scoobydoo.acmecity.com/witchdoctor/345 -Alt.Acting Newsgroup Gallery

Sooo now, What does that make you??????

The only women I think are whores,   are the ones that I – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -pay to have sex with me on a daily basis…oops i’ve said too much. Matt W. Listen whore,  if you have enough money for a computer and the internet, then you better start taking care of those kids before I send the police to your address I know that you are probably responding to a scam. But why would the word Whore have a part in your rebuttal? I realize that subtlety isn’t for the weakminded, but if you feel that women that are in abusive situations are whores, then I certainly hope you remain under your rock. angie southern cali sure is warm!

Response:

       I can tell by your post that you were made fun of alot as a kid, and I could of guessed that you were abused somewhere along the lines of your life because you have a desperate need to try and sound smart and get people to feel sorry for you.

Who feels sorry for her?  She’s got everything together.  It’s you I sympathize with… having never gotten far enough away from puberty to keep yourself from making completely idiotic judgements, accusations, and basically acting like a 3rd grade bully.  The fact you haven’t gotten over the tendancy to use foul language to try to get people to laugh shows this: In the adult world, the only people who actually get laughed with on this are the ones who use the derogatory or vulgar words properly.  In this case, you did not.  As Opus said, your attempt ot humour failed. DEAL. Somone got on an ACTING newsgroup and asked for us to send them money because they are being abused,  anyone who has a shred of common sense can see that it was just a scam,  so I decided I would use harsh words against them for posting something that I didn’t like.

In a time of need, anyone would post anywhere they could.  Do we know if it’s a scam?  No.  There is no positive proof until someone does some digging.  It’s not your place to say "IT’S A SCAM!", and it’s definately not your place to come on and basically offend everyone with your childish attempt at getting attention. After you read my post,  you decided you didn’t like it so YOU post harsh words to me telling me to, "shut the hell up" and that i had no right to say that to her…so what you are saying is,  that if i don’t like somones post then I need to shut the hell up, but if you don’t like somones post then you can say whatever you feel.

I think it was: "Shut the hell up if you have nothing intelligent to say". Once you use to word "whore", your credibility goes through the earth’s crust straight past the core and out the other end. Sorry, "whore" but unlike your therapist,  I won’t give you the sympathy you are so desperately seeking.  So how about you stop trying to sound smart,  get a sense of humor,  (which was robbed from you though all of your abuse)  and quit trying so hard,  cause it’s just not working.

You really know not too much about this group yet do you?  You have set a bad example: therefore you are flamed.  Apologizing for setting a bad example, or showing that you can make a GOOD example is probably the only way you can redeem yourself at this point.  Fighting with Opus does not help.  DEAL.

How about you deal with your issues in a positive manner and we’ll deal with ours. Just bend over, and pull that 2X4 from your rear orifice.  You’ll find your disposition is much better and you might actually get some respect. <Grin CJ.B

         I love myself so much, I don’t care *who* doesn’t like me! This is a tactic taken on by alot of people who have come to the realization that they were born a loser,  and the only way to cope with it is to say,  "I don’t care who doesn’t like me".  Give your therapist my compliments,  she has done a wonderful job.       Just shows how out of touch with reality you really are. The message to which I was responding wasn’t even there last night.

    When I said,  " took you all night to think that one up" it was being used as a way to paint a picture of how I feel about your wit,  or lack of.  Thanks for proving my point even further,  by not understanding this use of speech.   .it is an insult used by actual whores to describe people like you. I simply chose to borrow one of their phrases

         It seems like the only thing you can do is take things other people have said,  and toss it into your paragraphs in the hopes to cover up your stupidity,  get some self confidence,  some creativeness,  and in turn you can quit making a fool of yourself.

      Are you a lesbian?  Not that this is a bad thing,  but most people who say things like,   "girl power"  were either raped by grandpa as a kid,  beaten as a wife,  or are lesbians.  Whether you are one of these or are not,  I would suggest you stop using that phrase cause it points to somone that needs a large group to make themselves feel more confident.

Hey, don’t knock the tarot that badly. There are those who know how to do it. I once knew a girl that used to read tarot cards. She was so accurate it was freaky. She’d predict some of the most "off the wall" things, and they’d come true. She was also chemically imbalanced too. That’s my PC way of saying she was a brick shy of a full load. I can only rationalize her accuracy with the tarot by assuming her chemical imbalance was allowing her to tap into something and to access parts of her brain that we don’t normally use everyday.

Bad analogy Matt, …logical, but not accurate. I wouldn’t exactly call me & Carla buddies.

     My analogy was only meant for the person I was posting to,  and that person was NOT you.  The analogy only works for the person it was directed to. Lord knows she sometimes gets on my very last nerve,

     Why is that?  Becuase she has a different opinion than you do,   and i’m sure you post how you feel about the subject.  If you can post how you feel about her opinions,  then so can I.  My opinion was that it is a scam,  so attacked it,  just like you think i’m a jerk,  so you and opus attacked me. but she was right, & you were wrong. for you to call her a "whore" was just plain wrong.  

     So you think that me calling her a, "whore" is wrong because it’s calling her a foul name.  Ok,  i’ll get back to this in a second. Which is everyone in the NG you moron, …otherwise you would have sent it directly to her. *gee whiz*

         After this sentence I realized you are slow minded. Yes other people read it,  but it was only meant to get ONE persons attention,  and that was the person I quoted it to.   Is this the type of attention you want, …or were you such a badly neglected child that any kind of attention will do?

         Now you are taking almot exact quotes of what i said to opus, and writing them to me?   If you are not smart enough to come up with your own logic,  then don’t waste my time posting to me.       The way you did with Carla? Good grief!         Boy,  I guess you just really like to be wrong.  I responded to something that in my opinion is a money scam,   she posted that I should, "shut the hell up if"  and I defended myself.  On the other hand,  we have somone asking me to stop trying to get so much attention,  but fails to realize that if that is what I wanted,  he is only giving me what I want and in turn making the matter worse.  You may need to read this a few times to fully understand the concept.       OK folks, how many guys are now embarassed to call themselves male?          I can tell by this sentence that you felt proud of your response to my post,  if you felt proud of this incredible display of slow mindedness then I truely feel sorry for you and the family you represent.         Matt W. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text –            Actually I don’t ever use any kind of, "foul" language like curse words of the four lettered kind.  I can understand you defending somone that you see post on here regularly,  because i’m sure you have built some kind of relationship with her just as we have, (only our relationship is a bad one, where yours and her’s a good one) . It’s like me walking into your group of friends and pointing out that one of them is being loud and obnoxious and asking them to be quiet…even though everyone in your group most likely thought the same as I did,  they would still defend her and shoot me down, just because they are her buddys, well it’s the same deal here. Bad analogy Matt, …logical, but not accurate. I wouldn’t exactly call me & Carla buddies. We are always getting into it for whatever stupid reason that neither of us can figure out. …and Lord knows she sometimes gets on my very last nerve, …but she was right, & you were wrong. You don’t know jack shit about the subject, and none of us are qualified to definitively say that this person is scamming. She just might be telling the truth, …but even if she wasn’t, for you to call her a "whore" was just plain wrong.    I am not trying to get anyones attention,  except for the people I am posting directly to,  and NOONE else. Which is everyone in the NG you moron, …otherwise you would have sent it directly to her. *gee whiz* But the funny part is,  I AM getting attention becuase you and others have posted to me,   Is this the type of attention you want, …or were you such a badly neglected child that any kind of attention will do? so I have a good idea for you Corky,  stop trying to put out a fire with gasoline…. The way you did with Carla? Good grief! OK folks, how many guys are now embarassed to call themselves male? Drama Queen — I don’t know what your problem is, but I’ll bet it’s hard to pronounce.

You certainly don’t deserve this explanation, yet I feel compelled to share it, as I hope it will make you more aware of your insensitivity the next time this situation arises. *I* was in an extremely abusive situation for almost three years.  He was a secret alcoholic, and was the textbook definition of a clinical sociopath, or psychopath, which is the only psychological disorder that the Psychiatric profession has no idea how to cure.  At least that was the case 9 years ago. He wouldn’t work, and he made me hold down two jobs to support us.  When I finally enrolled in college, he used my off-campus money to support his woman/drinking habit.  He began abusing me verbally, which is how it begins, then it moved into physically, including two rapes, one of which I can’t even remember.  Yes, we were married and it was at a time when the law didn’t recognize marital rape. He put my cat in the microwave once when I wasn’t at home.  Luckily, I got home just in time to get him out of there. Why didn’t I leave, you ask?  Well, it’s certainly not that simple. Battered women who have been battered for years on end, have been worn down incessantly by their abusers to the point, that they begin to lose all self-esteem and they then believe the heinous insults that their abusers hurl at them.  Dreams begin to die, along with hopes for a normal life.  So A, I didn’t have the confidence of making it on my own, and that’s exactly what he wanted.  It was his goal all along to keep me in that situation and feed his hunger for control.  If I wasn’t there, he would have no one to control. B, I didn’t have any money to leave and set up house myself.  One day after he almost broke my jaw, I called a friend crying, saying that I couldn’t take it any longer.  Her husband, who still works for the Corrections Facility there as a K-9 officer, drove over to get me.  He knew my husband wouldn’t dare try to kick his ass, as he was a corrections’ officer, along with being a drill sergeant in the National Guard.  So for the first time in my life, I felt safe.  He drove me to my Pastor’s home, who then accompanied me to the Women’s Aide in Crisis Shelter, where I began assessing my life. Shortly thereafter, he left for 6 weeks.  By the third week, I was beginning to see the light of day, realizing suddenly that I could be a lot happier without him.  It was during that time that I noticed a particularly hot guy with long blonde hair in my chemistry class. (Later, after the divorce we began going out; it was awesome, as he treated me like a lady.)  On the sixth week, he returned in the middle of the night, begging me to take him back.  I felt that I needed to perhaps give him one more shot, so I let him in.  We began arguing, and he hit me, knocking me down to the floor, where I lay for thirty minutes before being able to get up.  I took it for two more weeks, as he seemed to have changed and was trying to make some sort of effort, but by that time, I had gotten my taste of freedom, and it stuck in my mind.  So I asked him for the divorce. 3 months later, it was final, but only on paper.  He then took to stalking me with my grandfather’s shotgun, which he stole, for a full year.  I had to have police protection to and from my job, and college. Finally, he got the message, and left me alone.  Years later, I was still finding out about people that he slept with in MY bed. So.  If you get the urge to call someone else a whore for NO GOOD REASON, shut the hell up and remember my story.  Because until you’ve been in that situation, you don’t know squat. — Opus (: "I wish the stage were as high and narrow as a tightrope so that only the most highly trained would dare to venture out upon it." –Goethe http://www.carla.coble.com -Acting site http://members.home.net/coble/OpusGraphics -Original graphics http://scoobydoo.acmecity.com/witchdoctor/345 -Alt.Acting Newsgroup Gallery

Response:

The only advice that I feel that you could benefit from is to call the police or a womens group and get out of the situation with your husband. If he really is this dangerous, throwing money at the problem would not help you or your children. If you are genuine about your circumstances you will do this immediately. If not, then you are breaking the law and your message will be acted upon in a way that just might make your husband really mad. Over to you….

He wouldn’t work, and he made me hold down two jobs to support us.  When I finally enrolled in college, he used my off-campus money to support his woman/drinking habit.  He began abusing me verbally, which is how it begins, then it moved into physically, including two rapes, one of which I can’t even remember.  Yes, we were married and it was at a time when the law didn’t recognize marital rape. He put my cat in the microwave once when I wasn’t at home.  Luckily, I got home just in time to get him out of there. Why didn’t I leave, you ask?  Well, it’s certainly not that simple. Battered women who have been battered for years on end, have been worn down incessantly by their abusers to the point, that they begin to lose all self-esteem and they then believe the heinous insults that their abusers hurl at them.  Dreams begin to die, along with hopes for a normal life.  So A, I didn’t have the confidence of making it on my own, and that’s exactly what he wanted.  It was his goal all along to keep me in that situation and feed his hunger for control.  If I wasn’t there, he would have no one to control. B, I didn’t have any money to leave and set up house myself.  One day after he almost broke my jaw, I called a friend crying, saying that I couldn’t take it any longer.  Her husband, who still works for the Corrections Facility there as a K-9 officer, drove over to get me.  He knew my husband wouldn’t dare try to kick his ass, as he was a corrections’ officer, along with being a drill sergeant in the National Guard.  So for the first time in my life, I felt safe.  He drove me to my Pastor’s home, who then accompanied me to the Women’s Aide in Crisis Shelter, where I began assessing my life. Shortly thereafter, he left for 6 weeks.  By the third week, I was beginning to see the light of day, realizing suddenly that I could be a lot happier without him.  It was during that time that I noticed a particularly hot guy with long blonde hair in my chemistry class. (Later, after the divorce we began going out; it was awesome, as he treated me like a lady.)  On the sixth week, he returned in the middle of the night, begging me to take him back.  I felt that I needed to perhaps give him one more shot, so I let him in.  We began arguing, and he hit me, knocking me down to the floor, where I lay for thirty minutes before being able to get up.  I took it for two more weeks, as he seemed to have changed and was trying to make some sort of effort, but by that time, I had gotten my taste of freedom, and it stuck in my mind.  So I asked him for the divorce. 3 months later, it was final, but only on paper.  He then took to stalking me with my grandfather’s shotgun, which he stole, for a full year.  I had to have police protection to and from my job, and college. Finally, he got the message, and left me alone.  Years later, I was still finding out about people that he slept with in MY bed. So.  If you get the urge to call someone else a whore for NO GOOD REASON, shut the hell up and remember my story.  Because until you’ve been in that situation, you don’t know squat. — Opus (: "I wish the stage were as high and narrow as a tightrope so that only the most highly trained would dare to venture out upon it." –Goethe http://www.carla.coble.com -Acting site http://members.home.net/coble/OpusGraphics -Original graphics http://scoobydoo.acmecity.com/witchdoctor/345 -Alt.Acting Newsgroup Gallery

My husband nearly killed me two weeks after having our third child. She is now three months old. He was in a rage because I was not up to tending him, the children, and the house. He forced the children to watch. Now we could lose our home which we fought so hard to keep. If anyone can help us PLEASE send anything you can.  to: Brenda Jean and Children P.O.Box 26035 260 St. Paul Ave. Brantford, Ontario N3R 7X4 Canada We thank you in advance for your help.

      Listen whore,  if you have enough money for a computer and the internet, then you better start taking care of those kids before I send the police to your address and have them taken to somewhere they can grow up like normal humans.  Most likely this is a money scam though up by a lazy computer nerd, either way…you are a loser.

I know that you are probably responding to a scam. But why would the word Whore have a part in your rebuttal? I realize that subtlety isn’t for the weakminded, but if you feel that women that are in abusive situations are whores, then I certainly hope you remain under your rock. angie southern cali sure is warm!

If this is NOT a scam, and your husband forced your children to watch while he almost killed you, then you don’t need money to help save your house (I am assuming your and your husband’s house) you need to get the hell away from his this minute.  Go to a shelter…the minute you read this. If this is a scam, shame on you. Before you buy.
