the expert has spoken - let's let this go. why aren't you responding to that wonderful poem by danny? or maybe making up a poem of your own? I give danny credit there as long as he let's it go himself. quite funny actually. can we all take a break and hopefully some normalcy (if there ever was any) returns to the forum? I gave RB grief because he seems to get on every topic with no value added. yet you are just as bad or worse. wanker!
What I was talking about was important to me. When I started that thread last year, my gf's father was having heart problems. Therefore, even if the subject was a little off, which I still don't believe, I would still find a way to change it. That's just me. I look at the past posts, and it was you who got irked first when you called me a knucklehead. That's when I got irked.
excuse me for a second wanker -- RB - what thread you started last year???????? what does that have to do with anything here??????? that is what I'm talking about. I am sure nobody follows what you post or talked about last year. this is another example of how you make things irrelevant. I am not 'lashing out'. I am only hoping to help you realize that no-one is keeping tabs on your life. maybe there are a couple who give you crap about your supposed girlfriend or how you have been scammed. that does not have any relevance or any interest to me and many others. It appears to me because you continually bring up your posts from the past that you are seeking validation for your being. great. but don't get on me when I question something you say (type). If you feel the need to have everything explained to you or try to defend yourself by asking non-relevant questions - actually assuming you asked a question - then it is beyond me to assume I know what you are talking about. I will say I thought about you today. I was sanding some patio furniture - Philippine mahogany - and listening to Taj Mahal. The song - "People Are People" -- yes, people are people no matter what. So I realize that I must have more tolerance for those who get on my nerves.
My post last year was about why FSU men die early. I found it a few days ago, but it was in the heat of the moment and I decided not to bring it up. I will look for it again later.
Why would that topic not be of relevance in this forum or in this thread and why would anyone not want to know that? That is my whole problem with this thread. It looks to me as if it was changed from the original purpose. Russian women don't have a continuity in a life partner is the calamity? I don't see that as a calamity. You are ignoring the elephant in the room.
The thread "turned south" with this post:
"go back forty years and live in my dad's time ??????????????????????????????????"
You might have wondered why I posted what I did and I wondered why you posted that. But even then, if I was not on the subject, of the Russian women's partners as you stated, neither were you. Then, you called me a knucklehead. It is clear that you wanted to post about your father. I would have not protested. But, you became intollerant.
By the way, Ralph. You mentioned that you re-read this thread. That is why I thought you knew about the thread I started last year. It is the fourth post on thread.
This will be my third consecutive post, but I am at work and I am doing it in increments.
You say you have no interest in my woman and it does not have any relevance on this thread. This is your post from the other page on this thread. It was an answer to your question. Now, you say it has no relevance or any interest to you and many others.
(I can also say that about your posts, but I will not. You are not a spokeman for many others.)
"Lately I am trying to figure out what it is you are doing here? Are you searching for a woman? Are you seeking advice on how to find a woman?"
I am not asking for validation on my being. It is you who is asking that. I intend to go back to Ukraine and this forum is helping me prepare.
Ralph, there are other people worse than me. Of course, I don't feel that way, but you mentioned it a little. Why is it that it is only me that irk you or that respond to.
Here in Scotland, we drink far more and consume way more non healthy fatty foods than any other European country, but Scots are generally happy, live well into their late 70's and know how to show the rest of the world how to party. It's not what you eat and drink but how you live that has the greatest influence on the years you'll spend on this planet.
sorry. I suppose I am not one for statistics. I will offer this. Man 'A' has a .200 batting average. man 'B' has a .200 ba. Man 'A' swings at pitches out of the strike zone and strikes out 4 times as much as man 'B'. Man 'B' rarely strikes out and hits the ball hard. He is robbed of many hits but also has many rbi. he moves runners over and does not swing at bad pitches. he walks 2x as much as man 'A'. Yet they have the same batting average.
What that has to do with dating women - nothing -- but it sort of gives my view on statistics.
Man A has made a name for himself. He had a great season previously and hit the winning hit in the World Series. He is therefore well liked by his team mates and manager, and was given the fourth spot in the batting order. The first, second and third spot in the batting order are those who are good at getting on base, therefore when man A gets a hit, more than likely, the men on base score.
But now, he is hitting .200. He will not swing at what he thinks are balls out of the strike zone although he swung at them during his championship season and got hits. Although he has many RBI, at .200 there are many missed oportunities for the team to score when he hits. Many times, it is because he elects to walk and leave the runners on base for preceding batters in the line up.
Man B swings at balls out of the strike zone, and therefore does not connect much, but when connects, the ball usually drops in between the fielders for a hit. There are others on the team batting below .200 and don't care, but Man A constantly blame him for the team's loss. In reality, everyone on the team is to blame for a loss and should be praised for a win. But, even if the team wins, Man A seems to find fault in man B. He is eight on the batting order because he is considered the worst hitter on the team although he is also batting .200, like Man A. The fifth, sixth and seventh hitters on the team are not good at getting on base and therefore there are usually no men on base when he gets to bat.
Many on the team thinks Man B should not be on the team, but he remains. He does not care when his man A and his team mates blame him, especially when he contributed. His contributions do not show in the statistics and therefore not realized. He thinks he can make it and make a difference. He believes he too can contribute and have a championship season.
RB- if you are into 'counting' do me a favor. I got married the last day of April. I incurred an injury beginning of July. Give me the stats on how many posts I made in May/June compared to July/August. I'm just now starting to get out again and going places. I still get out of bed 5:30 because it is uncomfortable as hell with this bulky brace strapped to my arm and I still experience much pain. I explained my reason for spending an unusual amount of time reading the 'forum' - Netflix has run its course. It is not an excuse. It is just a diversion for me. But I think I contribute something now and again. Remember my quote, "It's my funny paper..." ?
It wouldn't be as funny without a few people who visit occasionally with some absurd question or comment. Or without the core group of clowns who are either bickering with someone or just saying really ridiculous things. - how can I resist???
I had plenty of time yesterday, but I am at work now, so I cannot count now.
You got back into the forum when I was in one of those moments. Believe it or not, it started by my telling Martin why people hate and make fun of him. He did not get it and I persisted. Then, all hell broke loose. He did all of the this I said about the RB nian flu. Then, Nasfan joined in. I couldn't let that one go.
I am living alone. Because I am a one woman man, I do not date. I do not have cable. I am therefore alone with my computer many times. There are other forums that I belong to, but this one suits me for now.
unfortunately I typed the 0755 post before your yesterday 1713 post made the board. I would have kept quiet if I had known you were going to explain the situation with such insight.
They are moderating my posts. Nasfan made up stories about me and my woman. I did the same to him, and I guess I went a little overboard, although it is probably true.
