Personalities
FOUND by Nichole in the corner behind the trashcan
My friend and I were picking up trash in the school when we came across this.

Oh yeah, shell in Oz. It's the answer to life, the universe and everything...but 10 times better.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? I say, "Nay!" Just means you've run out of original ideas.

Kinda my point...We're becoming cookie cutters of ourselves.

I went to the drive-in with my hubby last night...had a great time until I visited the restroom. Two preggo 14 yr olds having a ball. "When are you do? Whus your babbys dady?" (they might have been the same) One had a t-shirt that said "don't hate me because you want to be me."

It's sad.

oh yeah, it's all simulacrum these days... I'm not trying to be "like" you, I'm trying to be like you 3 times removed.

In 5th grade a nun told me I was a nonconformist, thus relieving me of a lifelong social stigma that others must adhere to. I did not know that they had such authority but now I am glad she did.

I resolve to start conveying my thoughts with one sentence as opposed to entire paragraphs. And I will write my one sentence across an entire piece of paper as this person did. I think this could be my ticket to being better at communication.

And I know that I just wrote a paragraph but bad habits die hard.

Oh, I almost forgot.

@ Dog breath in Vernal/Homer City UT/PA;
This strikes me as an odd thing for a nun to say. Was she saying it in a negative way or was she actually complimenting you?

I was going to ask you the exact same thing!

Why wouldn't you try to be like me?




Heh...Don't answer that.

Lauren, are you saying that it's not like a nun to say negative things to children? you obviously didn't go to a catholic school. These are women who have to wear ugly dresses and not have sex. They're cranky. Of course they say negative things to children.

I still don't know. I appreciate that I did not grow up to be a semi-celibate priest though. Some nuns were cranky, some genuinely kind.Just like normal conformists.

I'm tired of monkeyin' around!

Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You'll see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be humen too

@shell-were you just typing fast or is english not your native tongue? When are you "do"? Do what? "Whus your babbys dady?" and you're criticizing the pregnant teens? If you're gonna throw stones, you might want to read what you've typed before you hit send.

Golly, Living. Aren't you going to call Shell for using "kinda" and "hubby" too? who peed in your wheaties this morning?

If you read the post, the only time those words that so offended you appear is within the quotation marks, indicating, to me at least, that Shell is trying to capture the "omigawd!" (or something) nature of the teeny bopper preggo chicks' chatter.

Dog Breath, I am impressed how quickly you moved.

~sigh~ I wish I could be like me.

sorry I in terupted the comedy
maybe I missed the joke, but it wasn't easy to see. My "babby's dady" thinks I'm too judgemental as well. I guess babbies having babbies isn't funny to me.

Thanks for the defense Deck/Klingons That's exactly how I meant it. I don't find babies having babies funny. I find it ridiculous...and sad. That's why I said "It's Sad."

living in glass house throwing stones. pretty ironic.

So now can we mark living in glass houses down a grade for not paying attention or properly analyzing the post in question?

It's only fair.

I'm more interested in what did he and his friend did to have to pick up trash at the school.
+ August 19, 2009 08:43 PM +
No one in particular
ya know... some people just pick up trash out of the goodness of their hearts, and for lack of anything better to do. Granted, those people are few and far between in this day and age, but it happens.

(every time the kidlets and I go to play at the school playground on weekends or during summer we do litter patrol. It's part of the deal, and it's a good policy. Not to mention fertile Found ground!)
