Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Janie Date: 01 Jun 09 - 11:13 PM I confess I often show up at work in winter with socks that do not quite match, or will have one or both of them wrong side out. I'd like to blame it on poor eyesight and the need for new glasses - and that is part of it. But mainly, I just don't notice except at odd moments. Finally realized that I just need to buy and wear one color and style of sock. One or both may or may not be wrong side out, but at least the color and style will match. YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT! |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Janie Date: 01 Jun 09 - 11:15 PM Little Hawk, I gotta tell you, your benign acceptance of what is REALLY PISSES ME OFF!!!! |

I bet you have the uppety one that doesn't keep a sock as payment LOL still trying to figure out the program thing you said ... mine has no keyboard |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Little Hawk Date: 01 Jun 09 - 11:25 PM The utter wrongness of your entire argument here is strikingly apparent, Janie. You are wrong, so wrong. I have seldom encountered anyone wronger than you. You should wear a T-shirt that says "I'm Wrong" everywhere you go. You should get it tattooed on your forehead. Does your dog still talk to you? If so, he must have the patience of Job. |

Let's get with the fockin' (Sorry, I know Spaw, wouldn't sugar-coat it!) program and have an all out slugfest! Sling some mud...it is the MUDcat, after all...let Cletus and the REG boys help you out...they'll drag any sorry ass Chongo Chimp, broke-dick mamalucca, Little Dick-Hawk or what have you down the backroads, through the mud and let you beat 'em up...just say the word!" |

That is why I am a liberal. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: olddude Date: 01 Jun 09 - 11:32 PM cause we really dont have feet we have cloven hoofs ... we hide them under our socks when we wear sandals sometimes we do it just to annoy the women . it usually works |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Janie Date: 02 Jun 09 - 12:07 AM Dachshunds are well known for their sock fetishes. No amount of programming of the dryer (sure, blame it on the dryer) can compensate for the deviant behavior of a weiner dog. You may go to sleep, Olddude, but your weiner dog is at your socks, even while you dream lyrics to new and wonderful songs. Confess, your socks have no mates because you are constantly having to throw the odd sock into the trash! |

I'd take you apart like a dollar watch. So, you have a 15 year old? Whose fault is that? Don't come to me with such a silly complaint, I'm not the duty Chaplain. Just having a 15 year old is a good reason to be "rasty". So, pull yourself together and kick his ass. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: freda underhill Date: 02 Jun 09 - 07:37 AM I don't feel at all quarrelsome, and I'm surprised at the immaturity of some of you, who seem to want to deliberately go looking for trouble. It mildly surprises me to think that anyone would seek a cyber-path to conflict. There are wars, famines, people blowing each other up with bombs... and there is another, gentle world, where the wise ones take their harp, wander along the green path and play shimmering music to the stars. I look at these wise ones, as I wander down to the gully, pick up rocks, imagine evil thoughts onto those lumps of inanimate density and throw them into the vast abyss, SCREAAMMING LOUDLY - AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH......... ... aaah... |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: freda underhill Date: 02 Jun 09 - 08:22 AM In australia if we're feeling grumpy we're cranky. now some people in other countries think that cranky means eccentric or something. but here, in sydney, in the centre of the universe, I'm feeling cranky. and I'm cranky that me feeling cranky is to someone else, a different concept. can't you guys speak english? |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 02 Jun 09 - 08:43 AM I don't know about other places, but here in Maine, cranky means irritable. Not eccentric. And, we DO speak English. So there! |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: SINSULL Date: 02 Jun 09 - 08:46 AM And Kendall IS cranky! |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 02 Jun 09 - 09:10 AM Not really. Being cranky is a condition for which there is no good reason. I have good reasons. The most troublesome word in our language is: EXPECTATIONS. When we perceive that someone is taking us for granted and just can't be bothered with our needs, that goes beyond cranky. It borders on verbal ass kicking time. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 02 Jun 09 - 11:35 AM The problem, Janie, is obvious. You are allowing yourself to entertain the illusion that you are the center of the universe. Well, illusions are bad. The problem with them is that, on some level, you recognize their illusory nature, so you're continuously torn between the part of you that wants to accept the illusion and the part that knows the illusion is not true. To rid yourself of this paradox, you simply need to rid yourself of the illusion. Let it become a fully fledged delusion! Forget the part of you that "knows" you're not the center of the universe. Throw all doubt aside! Immerse yourself fully in the glory of full-blown delusion! Of course, I don't know why I'm telling you this when, in fact, you can't be the center of the universe. I already am. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Amos Date: 02 Jun 09 - 11:47 AM Janie is, in fact, the center of the universe. So if she is cranky, the possibility of waves of crankiness spreading ripple-fashion to the furthest edges of the memesphere are very high, especially since she has often demonstrated her remarkable horsepower as a psychic generator of influence both positive and negative. It is therefore quite conceivable that these waves may be picked up far beyond Deneb, and will destabilize the proceedings of the Confederacy Congress of Connected Conglomerations of Stars and Planets by irritating all the representatives and assorted ambassadors, regardless of their chemistry, form, or plumbing. I leave the consequent conversations to the imagination of the reader. A |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 02 Jun 09 - 10:35 PM I saw a bumper sticker yesterday morning that said "My dachshund is smarter than your honor student." My first reaction was, "They must be making honor students pretty damned stupid nowadays. I've got compost that's smarter than a dachshund." But then it occurred to me that honor students have to get up early, ride a bus to school, pay attention in class, take exams, and do homework. All dachshunds have to do is eat, shit, and hump furniture. So who's smarter? |

I've paid my bill three times for May, finally got it to stick. Diligence is not rewarded--they want to penalize me for their faulty system. The main trouble with taking it out on folks like this is that it isn't their fault and it will just raise your blood pressure. ;-) |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 03 Jun 09 - 12:58 PM I used to automatically skip over posts without capitalization because it indicated laziness, and I don't care what lazy people have to say.

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Little Hawk Date: 03 Jun 09 - 01:02 PM There used to be a site you could go to that would automatically generate abusive and insulting tirades toward whoever's name you plugged into the subroutine...1, 2, or 3 paragraphs of hilariously funny, often quite witty stuff would be generated in a couple of seconds.

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:00 PM Where I come from, the Canadian Maritimes have a reputaton for cursing, and it seems like they really are the winners. quote from a certain friend from New Brunswick" "The son of a woore looked like he was in the middle of a sex change and the power went off." Pure poetry. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:28 PM I dunno, K. Seems to me that The Maritimes, and I include Newfoundland, have common ground with ye fellers from just south. Cursing properly is well respected here, as I assume it is "down theyah" stateside. Perhaps it comes from our recent past connections to the tough environment of the "wood, wind and waters"? Or, perhaps others from far and wide could edify us on regional customs with regard to oneupyership? |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:33 PM There have been a few cursing threads in the past, but, I didn't go back and read them with respect to "regional flavour". Perhaps a thread to that effect might be educational. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:37 PM "blue suede"? Now, that would be a compliment. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Rapparee Date: 03 Jun 09 - 05:23 PM Cussin' -- don't get me started. Properly done it takes wit, intelligence, and imagination. 99% of people cuss like little old ladies at a tea party, and they're repetitious at that. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 06:40 PM Proper cussing involves no "swearing", as Kendall's post so eloquently demonstrated. Little old ladies do just fine. At least, the lassies I goes wit knows how ta make a pair of orchids wilt in early spring. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 03 Jun 09 - 07:21 PM I know curses that I would never place here they are just too crude. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 07:45 PM Perhaps a rude cussing thread with a warning? A "fuck off'? Then again, even with eloquece and decorum thrown to the wind, such a thread might be futile, given the SPAW factor. I dunno if I could go down, up, that road. |

I could stop laughing captain |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Rapparee Date: 03 Jun 09 - 09:47 PM REAL cussin' needn't be crude or vulgar to peel the paint stripe off of a hundred miles of highway. What could be nicer than to say to someone, "When you get home I hope your mother runs out from under the porch and bites your tail" -- but that's merely name-calling. REAL cussin' -- well, I leave such discussion of someone's morals, hygiene, ancestry, and personal habits to your imagination. REAL cursing needn't be crude or vulgar and indeed a curse can sound quite tame, such as "May your children grow up to be disappointments to you" or one of my favorites (from Ireland) "May the grass grow tall before your door." |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: katlaughing Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:32 PM My dad would start out with a "you sorry son of a..." He used quite flowery speech with a lot of archaic words gleaned from reading the Classics all of his life and being able to recite them by heart. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Janie Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:59 PM Now I'm really mad. My post just got lost in cyberspace - which seems to be happening more than usual. Must be those vibes I sent out to shake up the cosmos backfiring on me. I have never, ever, heard my Dad curse or use foul language. I'm sure he has, but never, ever, in front of his girls or women, and once mature, probably very little in exclusively male company. I was in my mid 20's the first time I heard my mother utter an expletive in a moment of extreme frustration. She was mortified, and apologized every time she saw me for the next 3 weeks. There is, of course, a real difference between the use of foul language and the fine art of cursing. The difference, I suppose, between cussing and cursing. However, when I stop to reflect on it, (which I rarely do,) cursing bothers me because it nearly always incorporates derogatory connotations of women. Cussing may do the same, but tends to be more egalitarian, dealing with raw body functions or sexual connotations that are not gender specific. Now I'm really being quarrelsome. But not trying to be the PC police. Just something to think about. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: GUEST,Will Fly, on the hoof Date: 04 Jun 09 - 03:48 AM Take care, dear friends, before using salty language - doing it well is not easy. Mark Twain was a frequent, elegant and seasoned cusser, but his swearing used to annoy his wife. One day, irritated beyond measure, she walked into his study and let rip with a string of high-flying words. Twain calmly took his pipe out of his mouth, lowered his paper, looked up at his wife and said, "My dear, the notes are all there, but the melody is missing." |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: freda underhill Date: 04 Jun 09 - 04:41 AM Note: There are some deliberate mistakes in this piece, designed to lure the unwitting perfectionists into cyber-exposure (of the theoretical kind). An unctuous pedant, named Pratt was concerned about commas,and crap, a well-punctuated maze strangulated each phrase he transformed every "which" into "that". when informed that his couplet didn't scan he engaged a set square and a ruler and said, what is worse, a non-rhymthmic verse, or a sentence missing capitals, that's peculiar. Somewhere lost in a cacophany of letters some ideas, not all for the better transformed into space by italics and case into an onamatapaeiaic vendetta. If you're reading to check up on grammar I suggest there's a blockage (a hammer?) stuck somewhere intense It's advised you commence a verbal colonnic, or the latter. To all who adore a good phrase be it particular, painful or praise I suggest you withdraw from the verbiage war and do something useful with your propensity like teach english as a foreign language to refugees. f.u. |
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 04 Jun 09 - 07:47 AM Anyone who has spent much time at sea knows that cussing is a sort of contest. Whoever comes up with the most gauche' disgusting rant wins. |
