Title: Confessional---Anything To Get Off Your Chest?
Post by: ER on April 08, 2010, 12:53:35 PM
Years ago when my cousin came home from rehab and was trying to turn her life around, her doctor gave her an assignment and told her to get a plant and take care of it, and if the plant was still alive six months after she got it, she could get a pet to take care of. Well, she tried but after a while her plant started dying and I felt bad for her, so I bought a plant that looked like hers and substituted it without telling her. She was thrilled her project worked and so was ready for a pet. She bought a little blue parakeet and named him Louie, then got back on cocaine and into the party life, and the bird literally starved to death in his cage. I still feel a little responsible for my role in leading up to that.

Confession: After spending the last decade on my twenty-something elitist soap box harping about all the reasons I hated Walmart and how it was so evil and bad, I bought a coffee maker there because the one I wanted was eight bucks cheaper than it would've been at Target. I mean eight bucks? I feel like such a traitor now.... Like I have joined the dark side. (And they didn't even give me cake!)

Years ago, I had a school assignment to write a speech on a topic. So I went on Google, and copied a witty article about it, because I forgot about the assignment and I was desperate not to fail. I was voted for best speech in the class, and the English teacher thought I was one of the best students.

Sometimes I think of this and I can't sleep.

Ok, here's a doozy of a confession.... I probably shouldn't bring this up, but hey, I'm a glutton for punishment...

Last year I broke up with my girlfriend, who I have been dating since high school (over nine years!). While this act isn't exactly anything to really confess over, the reason I broke up with her was. I fell for (and was seduced by) a gal at the workplace who was married. Her hubby was away in Japan, and I guess I was the next best thing. To quote George Thorogood "I done let the deal go down" and eventually I found myself very, very alone and wishing I could go back and stop myself from being a farkin' idiot.

I am happy to announce that I have since gotten back together with my high school sweetheart and all is well, but my mistake cannot be forgotten and it still haunts me to this day (since it gets brought up during almost every argument! DOH!)!

On a lighter note, back when I was in middle school, I used to steal packs of gum from a local convenience store before getting on the school bus to fit in with some of the "cool kids." I would grab a few packs to buy (in order to not arouse suspicion) and then stick another three or four up the sleeve of my jacket. This was luckily a short phase I went through, so I stopped long before I could ever be caught.

Don't judge me too harshly based on these tales of woe; I'm a nice guy and typically have high moral standards. I just sort of stray from the right path from time to time and do stupid sh*t.

Don't feel too bad, I can't keep a plant alive for six months because my pets keep eating them.

I don't think I have anything to confess that I haven't already confessed, OR that doesn't involve other people and I am bound to secrecy.

At a party we once turned off the lights to see what will happen in total darkness. I was crawling and touching my way through the room until I felt somebody laying on the floor on his back. I squatted and made sure this persons face was right underneath my ass and yeah, I cut the cheese. The person was totally upset started yelling, coughing and cursing. I crawled away as fast as possible before the lights got switched on again, and acted in "shock" as how somebody could fart somebody in the face!
I never told anybody that I was the farter. Funny enough I was never a suspect either  :teddyr:

Oh, I wouldn't.  She threw me away based on the advice of her "big sister" within the brainwashing sorority cult she'd joined, said "big sister" hating me for disagreeing with her (granted, disagreeing with her in a rather belligerent fashion while drunk off my ass) on what NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD "really meant."

Plus there's the distance factor, the fact that I didn't get along with her family, hold her in complete and total disdain for joining this sorority (her personality completely changing within hours of pledging) and the fact that she's got a beard. 

Weirdly enough, she (the ex) just commented on my review of TWILIGHT, a film she screened for me.

After many years of chuckling at the memory, I actually do finally feel pretty bad about this one....

In the summer of 1993 I was playing in a tennis tournament and the girl I was about to go up against in a semi-final match, a slightly older girl who had a reputation for being a mouthy drama queen as well a a dirty player, said something EXTREMELY impolite to me as we walked on court together, so I deliberately aimed my first serve right at her, and to my surprise actually hit her HARD on the forehead. It was so wrong of me to find satisfaction in watching her stagger around, bent double, holding her holding her little blond head in her hands, deer-in-headlights look in her eyes...

OK - this week a very nice friend of mine, a salt of the earth fellow, called me on his way home from the river because he had found the best point of his lifetime - a KILLER  4  1/8" Scottsbluff type spearpoint.  He came by my school to show it to me, while I was waiting for open house to start.  Of course, I congratulated him and told him what a great point it was and how happy I was for him.

But I secretly wanted to knock him over the head and hide it and see if he would forget finding it when he woke up . . . .

OK, here's one that involves breaking a federal law, but it was a long time ago, and I was just barely still a minor. The fall of 1988, there was a federal election in Canada. Being maybe a year too young to vote, not to mention opinionated and full of teenage stupidity, I convinced a friend to go with me to the edge of town at night and steal the election sign of a particular candidate - one of the big hardboard signs. We then scribbled a lot of the sort of filthy stuff that teenage boys find funny on it with magic markers. At that point, we didn't know what to do with the thing, so we left it on the front step of the local newspaper, thinking it might get some attention.

The story doesn't end there, however. The following morning, I heard about a part-time job opening at that paper and applied. Seventeen years later, I left my job as editor to move north. Never told anyone.

After the sudden death of a close friend of mine in 2000, I became, over time, good friends with his sister, whom I'd not known well at all before her brother's passing. (In fact for a year she didn't know about my connection to her brother....long story.)

Two years ago my deceased friend's sister had a little boy whom she named after her late brother, same first and middle name, even giving him the same nickname her brother had. She asked if I'd be Godmother to her son and so I said....okay, sure, thanks, what an honor, thank you for thinking so much of me to ask me to do that. (Which was only partly reflective of how I actually felt about it.) But now every bit as much as then, it disturbs me when she calls her son by my deceased friend's name. Sometimes it sends a chill down my spine, not least of which because it reminds me of some odd things that happened shortly after my friend's death.

Now, to put the topper on the cake, this little boy, my godson, shows every indication of looking like a young clone of his uncle, and even though I try hard to feel otherwise, between the name and what sometimes seems like his mom's almost subconscious efforts to make him a surrogate for her dead brother, something in me is feeling increasingly disturbed by it all and I probably have no right to be.

Mea maxima culpa.

I guess I could confess something...
Three years ago when I was 14 I used to go to the local supermarket and steel 4 bars of Toblerone chocolate EACH time I went. I did this for 2 months in a row and I sold the chocolate bars every day at school for 1 euro a bar. It was 1.25 in the store so people always bought it. I must of made over 100 euros with this... until I was at another store, I was still smoking pot at the time and I was semihigh and a little drunk. I put a bunch of magic markers and lighters in my pockets. 2 of my friends, who stole nothing, were with me then. As we walked outside the alarm went off. I ran but my friends just stayed put. The people from the shop stopped them and my friends gave my name (  :hatred: ) I drove my bike home and threw the stuff I stole in a river. by the time I got home my parents knew and my life was really messed up then.

I'm a relatively " good boy " now though  :drink:

Whenever I am in line at the grocery store, I always look ahead at what the person in front of me is buying to eat, and then based on that I make a guess at what health problems he or she is likely to develop due to diet. Even EYE think that's a bit morbid.

Wow...I thought I did some bad stuff...but after reading some of the things on here...buying some drugs now and then doesn't seem too bad.

On that note, there's a small 'confession' but it's nothing bad.  I've yet to have a date or a relationship yet.

Mind you...some women even tell me how funny and attractive I am.  For some reason, I just can't pull it out... :question:

Guess it's like they say...nice guys finish last.

At a house party about 20 years ago I peed in my friend's clothes dryer.

I was so drunk one night back in 1997 that I stumbled into my friend's bedroom where his girlfriend was sleeping and p**sed all over her brand new coat.  She woke up and started shoving me into the bathroom...with me peeing all over the place along the way.

I paid to have her coat dry cleaned.   :wink:

To this day I still have no memory of doing that.


That's not all...

Back in the summer of 2001, my girlfriend at the time got completely wasted with us at the bar.  When we got home she literally passed out on the toilet.
She was laying on the floor with her chin resting on the porcelain.
I tried to get her to move but she flailed her arms in drunkenness and would not budge.

During that entire time, I had to go #2.  Like really, really bad.  It was around 1:00 in the morning and was one of those urgent dumps where you know that if you don't get to a toilet in the next 60 seconds, you're gonna s**t yourself.   :buggedout:

I couldn't get her to move so I grabbed the entire roll of toilet paper, went out onto my large balcony, dropped my pants, and took an explosive dump right off the edge and onto the grass below.    :teddyr:  (we were about 3 stories up)
I had to watch myself because there was no railing to hang onto.  Kind of had to hover over the edge and keep myself from falling backwards and off the balcony.

As I'm cleaning up, there's a party going on across the alley and a bunch of people standing outside start looking over and pointing at me!
I threw the dirty TP down with the s**t and went back inside in a hurry.

I had to do it.
It was either off the balcony or in my pants.

I got her back for it, though...

The next day I told my girlfriend what happened.  She thought it was hilarious that I crapped off the balcony so I had her look at it.
There were tons of flies buzzing all over it.

She was totally grossed out!

Ash's story reminded me of my "dump" incident many many years ago. My sister's female friend and I wanted to meet the rest of the gang at a funfair/carnival sort of happening in another town, but we had to hitchhike to get there (this was in the late 80s when hitchhiking was en vogue). We caught a ride right away and I noticed while we were driving that I had a painful urge to take a dump. Really bad. The driver dropped us off at an intersection and we still had to hitch five more miles to get to our destination. I was about to run behind bushes to take a dump when another car stopped. My sister's friend was yelling and waving at me to get in so I literally bite my tongue and got in the car. By the time we got to the fair I was in agony. I could barely walk and was about to let "go" any minute. They had toilets at the fair but they were located farther away and no way I was going to make it on time. There was however a small "open" men's room at the entry of the fair but it had no actual toilets. It was an open room with a sink to wash hands and tiled "pee-walls" with water running down to urinate. I told my sister's friend to stand guard, while I dropped my pants and took a hefty dump on the floor in the corner. All this took place in less than one minute and I tore off my underpants for wiping. I was lucky not getting caught in the act because there were hundreds of people walking to the fair passing the men's room.
After relieving myself I cleaned up properly at the other toilet though  :smile:

Oh, geez.  I'm really not that bad, though I was a horrible kid.

I made fun of special kids one time in junior high.  Like, horribly, me and some other guy.  I still feel awful for it.  :bluesad:

The only other thing I can think of was going to my friend's funeral after he died in a car accident.  I bumped into another mutual friend there.  A female.  And this was after I lost about fifty pounds.  She looked me up and down and I thought, "Dear god, we're going to have sex."  Thankfully, it wasn't in the funeral parlor, but it did happen.  She was also a single mom, which netted me the title of "Motherf**king Funeral Crasher" for a short time with my friends.  I sometimes feel like I desecrated my buddy's memory by screwing a girl I bumped into at his funeral.

I admit that it's mainly my fault since I don't look at the rules and just assume what to do after reading one or two posts.

The worst thing I ever did was smash someone in the head with a rock. Grant you, I was just a kid at the time and didn't fully realize the consequences of my actions...luckily the boy I struck, who was a bit older than me, didn't have any serious damage although I split his head open. The action was taken in response to this kid's beating and bullying my cousin. I did take things too far that's true. Later on, all his friends and family ganged up on me and gave me the beating of my life. I didn't fight back. I admitted my wrong and we never really had any trouble with each other after that.

Out of curiosity in my late teen years, I did once sneak into a ladies washroom (luckily there was no woman in there and I wasn't ever caught) and discovered just as I expected, that it was immaculate while the men's room was a pig sty.

Yeah, it's like going into a damn spaceship when you go into the ladies. It's all so clean and clinical, plus they have all sorts of goodies and things to make the place more pleasant; There's nice towels, good lighting, real hand cleansers and lockable doors!

I know this, because on nights out years ago, my ex used to drag me into the ladies for sex and so I could do my makeup. With the way I dressed then, nobody had a clue I was a guy...

This has to be the worst thing I've ever said to someone in my entire life. Just horrible. Granted I was caught a bit off balance by the suddenness of the moment but to this day I feel terrible about it and should've been tarred and feathered for saying it. What happened was:

In our last week in college, a guy I'd been close to since our first year there asked me to marry him, and my reaction was to say, "You're just trying to get laid."

It's like sometimes demons take control of my vocal cords.

At a house party about 20 years ago I peed in my friend's clothes dryer.

I have to ask, was that a "drunk" thing, or a "the bathroom was full and I needed to go" thing or something else?

To share a similar experience. I was in a band in the 1990's, and our band was hired for very little pay to play at a frat house party at UCLA. When we got there, we found out that we were to play two sets, interspersed with sets from a dj. The dj was a cool guy, we had no problem with him. However, when you got a frat house throwing a big party (and it was big), and of course, all trying to get laid so they invited plenty of college babes, how interested do you think the crowd was in hearing live music? We would play a 40-minute set, where nearly everyone disappeared from the main room to go do whatever, then the dj would do a 40-minute set of typical party funk and hip-hop, where everyone would return to the main room, then we would play our second set, at which point more than half the crowd would disappear again, coming back for the dj. We had played a frat party at Berkley before that was a great experience, so we figured we would play this for next to nothing and maybe sell a few cds and get a bunch of people on our mailing list. Yeah, right. We all smoked weed at the time and even the local frat house "pot guy" was a total a-hole who had no interest in hooking us up or even selling us any. You would think the pothead would at least appreciate the band.

Anyway, we were so disgusted by the experience, and I got plenty trashed on the free beer (at least that was a plus), and when we were loading up to leave, I noticed a small fridge nearbye, that didn't have much in it except for some canned beers. Clearly it belonged to the frat house. Anyway I was in such a surly mood over the whole experience and was really needing to pee, so I opened up the little fridge and let it fly. Then we finished loading up and took off.

There's my little confession. I don't think I've ever told anyone about that, although two of my band mates saw me do it, so it's not like nobody knows

When I was in elementary school I stole a lot of toys from other kids, even those I considered my friends.  Usually small stuff like action figures, Go-Bots and whatnot.  Wish I could say I was a klepto and didn't know what I was doing, or just doing it on impulse, but that wouldn't be true.  I guess it's partly cause we didn't have a lot of money around that time, my allowance was very low (even by the standards of that era) and I just got wanted more toys to play with, or maybe part of it was my way of getting back for having two of my toys stolen when I left them in my desk during lunch, I dunno.

I still feel bad about it to this day

Out of curiosity in my late teen years, I did once sneak into a ladies washroom (luckily there was no woman in there and I wasn't ever caught) and discovered just as I expected, that it was immaculate while the men's room was a pig sty.

I work in a library, and have to check the bathrooms most nights we close, including the woman's.  I gather it varies from place to place, but at our particular library the woman's restroom is usually grosser than the men's. 

Hmm.  I don't really have anything particularly awful to confess.  I used to steal change from my dad's change tray in his room.  Usually enough to buy candy.

Yeah, I was addicted.

I have nothing to confess.

I don't drink, smoke, take anything illegal.
I've never stolen anything, I've manged to avoid fights, I've never been two faced.

I don't even swear unless I'm scared.

Oh, man, I'm boring, aren't I ?

It wasn't a one time thing.  I spent all week in another state entirely.  I'm mostly disappointed in myself, and that's my main concern.  I was doing so good.  And just like *that* I gave it all up for momentary bliss.  Again and again and again.
I tried so hard to stop.  It's not so easy.  The physical side of addiction I got over.  The mental side beat me up.

It's tough.  You should be disappointed in yourself for not meeting your goal.  My concern is that by being too tough on yourself you may be tempted to give up.  I say just keep trying, don't give up.  It may take several times before you get it right.  Ask a doctor for advice.

It was a drunk thing.  Unfortunately, I wasn't drunk enough to use that as an excuse . . . I knew very well what I was doing.  There are other stories about peeing in a bottle of mouthwash and peeing in a box of tissues, but I won't say whether I was directly involved or merely a spectator.

Well, this is a familiar story.

Here's a thing to remember, and I hope you can make it work for you. It isn't drugs/alcohol/etc. that makes a conversation, or a fun person. It's you. You don't become a new person by ingesting something, but it may bring certain personality traits to the forefront. But behind it all, it's still the just the person you are.

I'll go back to alcohol. Alcohol has always been a potent tool to lower social inhibitions, and has been used that way for years. If you're shy, well why not some liquid courage?

But at its base, it does not change who you are. Are you a fun drunk (or whatever drug you like) that everybody enjoys hanging out with? You still are that person sober, you just may not be as willing to share it with other people. However, if you get used to only being that person under the influence, you begin to think that the drug is the causative, not yourself. You begin to think you need the drug to be the person you want to be.

Well it's not true. You can still be "fun" when sober, because it isn't the drug, it's yourself.

I've been down that road, and I'm not saying it's easy to go out to parties without your "helper." But don't sell yourself short. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised if you really work at it.

You have to think about what you yourself want out of life and ask like Mofo suggests, do you really truly need this drug to be who you want to be?

I was reading this book about serial killers and their MOs and whatnot, and they had a picture one of the victims of this serial killer (can't recall his name) who's body was left right next to a "No Dumping" sign.  

I feel horrible admitting this, but I found that to be funny.

Not that murder is funny mind you, and I feel sorry for the victim's family and stuff, but still...

1.

2. It seems to me you are being a bit of a defeatist.  The fact is, people in your situation, and those in worse situations, quit abusing drugs every day. Particularly when they are as young as you are.  You made progress for a while; don't let a relapse convince you it can't be done.   

3.  I was in a somewhat similar situation in my late teens/early twenties.  Now, I drink moderately and never use illegal drugs.  I've been prescribed a ton of vicodin myself for my hernia surgery and it's still sitting in my medicine cabinet.  Largely, the change was a change in my circumstances, getting help for depression, and changing the way I view recreational drugs.  Not only can it happen, but I would say the path I've taken is the common one.  As you grow older, recreational drugs will be less rewarding; most (obviously not all) people grow tired of them at some point.  That point will probably come to you.

I can't really see a doctor or therapist.  No money.  I'd have money if I wasn't paying all the bills.  The little bit I have left after bills don't even cover an office visit to a doctor.  And I have no friends to turn to.  I'm just a sad depressed little man and I don't have anyone to turn to.

I'm with you on the no money bit. Can't say I enjoy it myself.

Don't sell yourself short just yet. Remember, when you feel all alone, we're all on your side, and we're always here. There are a lot of us here who have been where you are.

I spent quite a few years feeling alienated from all and everybody, a nigh shut-in. I spent almost as many years working my way out of it in incremental, near-imperceptible steps. It was tough work, and it wasn't fun at any point. Small comfort, I'm sure, but I'm at a point now where I'm feeling very good about myself and where I'm going. Part of that was the communities I participated online.

Do what you have to do, but remember, you're not alone.

It's quite possible the killer meant it as a joke.

I think he did, and the caption was all like, "This picture shows the contempt the serial killer has for society and it's basic rules" etc, etc.  All scholarly and stuff, and I'm just like, "The sign said, 'No dumping' and he dumps a body next to it! HAHA!  Oh, s**t, I shouldn't laugh at that..."

On a similar, but less grisly note, we had some people who stayed in the room of your hotel (which is non-smoking), they threw the "no smoking" sign into the taste can and smoked in the room.  Found that kind of funny too.  (Oh, and we charged their credit card extra for smoking.)

I can't really see a doctor or therapist.  No money.  I'd have money if I wasn't paying all the bills.  The little bit I have left after bills don't even cover an office visit to a doctor.  And I have no friends to turn to.  I'm just a sad depressed little man and I don't have anyone to turn to.



Most cities have low-priced clinics you can visit.  I visited one in Vegas when I had no money or insurance to get a prescription for antidepressants.  I am not a doctor and I'm not diagnosing you as suffering from depression, but your story does somewhat remind me of my own.

I found that when it comes to women, being too "nice"  wasn't the way to go. Women I learned in most cases seemed to think of that as me sucking up trying to get close to them and they were probably right at that time. Now I'd be far more likely to joke and kid around with a woman and I found once I started kidding around and teasing, the women seemed to take to me better because I was engaging them in conversation and not merely looking to flatter, suck-up and get with them and just seeming like someone desperately seeking attention. By not caring whether they would go for me or not and just kidding around, it tended to perk their interest a lot more. Well that's my experience anyways.

As to your more immediate concern, I think Rev's advice is top notch. I'm sure others out there are going through the same or have been through the same. Important to know you're not alone. I had a friend who found religion helped him quit smoking....that might be even be another option to consider...at least starting to talk to someone, especially someone with training to help you.

I've been depressed.  Problem is, it'd depend on what anti-depressants I get prescribed.  I've gone through a pill addiction.  Alcohol addiction.  Cocaine, etc.

Believe me, that's not an issue.  Prozac and other antidepressants don't get you high, there's no reason to take them recreationally.  If you're clinically depressed they just make you feel more normal.  They're not at all like cocaine, etc. which just make you very good for a short time, then bad thereafter.  You just take them everyday to feel more on an even keel.

I gotta see a doctor then.  Cause I'm two steps from running into a wall.  I dunno if it's genetic, but apparently Depression, Bi-Polar Disorder and Addiction run rampant in my family.  My dad, his brother, a cousin of mine, a few others all had em.  I dunno.  I see shows like Intervention and I'm not too far off.

When my sister-in-law died, she had seven cats living in her house.  Teddy was the oldest or nearly (16) and had a droopy mouth because of a tumor in his jaw.  I instructed the Popcorn Park people to put him down.  I always regretted not stroking him and telling him that he was loved.  He had been a mean cat that over time turned and became quite friendly with the largest dagger-like claws ever which you'd feel every time he climbed into your lap.

For years I have mislead my mom about why I didn't go to Homecoming my senior year, but the truth is I just didn't want to be there.


The only person I cringed at knowing I was pregnant and not married in 2008 was the nice old country lady who lived next to us in the house where I grew up. I was otherwise almost completely unabashed.

Monday I played on the guilt I knew would be there when I asked my friend's father for a second donation in six months on behalf of the organization I support that battles human trafficking in Cambodia. If need be I could have brought up the Dominican Republic in casual conversation to subliminally prime him, which would've been slightly evil on my part, though I was prepared to do that.

The other day I gave my daughter a lecture about how being good is almost impossible in life and failure and wrongdoing can lead to wisdom, and now I think that was probably the sheer dumbest thing I've ever said to her, given she has her teen years ahead.

When she and her husband visited us from Ireland, I took my morbidly obese cousin to all you can eat buffets not once but twice. I figured she might as well have fun on vacation but I knew that was enabling her.

For a time in seventh grade I used to watch Dead Poet's Society every morning when I was getting ready for school, I'd just hit play on the VCR and watch whatever scenes came up next til I was ready to leave.

Well one night Verity, this awful girl my dad was always trying to get me to be friends with, was staying over and she asked me if I'd ever thought of the order of the boys in that film I'd make out with if I had to make out with them, and I said no, not really, and she said but you'd start with Ethan, right, and I said probably not.

Well she bugged me until I finally just named one of the boys on there as the one at the top of the hypothetical makeout list, not really caring about the subject. Then that girl went and told my parents, my friends, everyone I had a thing for that particular boy, embarrassing me very much at that age.

The confession part is when Verity came over again later that summer I think maybe I halfway tried to drown her while we were swimming, and almost succeeded.

I don't trust bees because they're so single-minded they cannot think of any thought but their inborn purpose. Ants can deviate but bees don't seem to be able to, they just go into a frenzy if something comes between them and the one all-completing thought that dominates them. I think a bee would overheat inside, go insane, stroke out, if it was prevented from pursuing the one and only function it knows, the task it was born to undertake. For that reason I have decided I do not trust bees and have never been disabused of the correctness of that voluntary personal policy.

There’s nothing bigoted about condemning a racist organization that exploits black people like Black Lives Matter. You just gotta love all of those white folk burning, looting, and destroying cities all in the name of Black Lives Matter; thus making black people look bad. That’s nothing new for white Democrats though, who boldly call themselves “allies” of the people that they’re exploiting. We get our fair share of “allies” up here in Alaska too; it’s always some white liberal that thinks that they know what’s best for us too. I think Malcolm X summed up those “allies” quite accurately:

I wish you and your family had not had to live through that. Your father sounds like a horrible person but from things you've said in here I know you love your own children and were never like that to them, so you rose above your father's conduct and not only is that to your credit but it's also a great victory, that no matter how bad he got he didn't break you and he wasn't able to destroy you like he was destroyed.

When I was 6 and 7 we lived in Marolboro NY. My Dad would be out drinking and come home and beat the s**t out of my Ma. Me and my brothers would hide under the bed. My brother Richie would be screaming in the crib. The next morning after Dad passed out, their would be holes in the walls all over the house. She would have black eyes and fat lips. I hated him.

Was this the turning point for you? Keep going man, it’s a long road to recovery. Please don’t beat up Tiana over this either.  :bluesad:

Gang, this thread is for confessions. CONFESSSSSSSSSSSIONS. It's refined here. It's.....quasi-religious in its undertones. Throwing turds at each other like it's the monkey house at the Bronx zoo is best taken next door to the politics thread. Again, let's review: it's sacred in here.  Like warm pie. Like Grandma's lap. This is where you tell about the regrettable choice to lose your finger-bang virginity to your friend's brother. Jeesh.

Sacred. Solemn. Serious. Refined.  Jesus H. Christ.

This summer a friend asked if I would help him with his online college classes, and I said sure, thinking he meant maybe answer questions that arose, proof-read his papers, suggest research sources or the like. Thing is, he really meant, "Will you do these classes for me?" And I wouldn't go that far because it's lazy on his part, an unfair demand on my time, and it's not only unethical to cheat like that, it's surely illegal. Well today I got an email from him that said, "I'm dropping out of college, and I partly blame you for backing out on me. Thanks a lot."

I wrote for the underground newspaper at our college.
The official newspaper was called "The East Texan."
Ours was "The East Texan Lite" and the tagline was "One Third Less (something) Than the Regular East Texan."
We wrote whatever we wanted and said "Hey, it's all satire!"

"Try to find reasons to be happy," I said to my mother this morning after a long listening session on the phone, sharing one of the tricks that works for me.

Judging by her response I guess that was the wrong thing for me to say.

I called my other parent and said, "So having tried a psychologist, at what point do we call in an exorcist, Dad?"

He.... didn't laugh. Scary.

When I had to explain to him Switzerland was landlocked and I didn't think there was such a thing as a Swiss Navy knife, his disappointment made me feel so guilty I Gorilla glued a Zippo onto a regular Swiss army knife for him, and he was impressed.

Sometimes I think the strongest evidence I have in my own life for a person not being entirely in control of her own direction but under the influence of fate, karma, dharma, destiny, or God is the sheer amount of time I have found myself for the last almost thirty years enmeshed with the lives of one particular family, not my own. Sometimes for the good, sometimes for the bad, sometimes delightfully so, sometimes tragically, but seemingly inescapably have they been part of my time on this planet, as I have been in theirs, as if I have had little to no choice. I could create a map that might suggest a chain effect of causation that would require no higher plan to it all, yes, but the profound nature of their lives mixing with mine seems to defy something in arguments I could make for either chance or free will.

So what it is?

My body on the other hand reminds every so often that I'm not, occasionally people remind me, recently I had to have blood drawn at the local Kaiser medical clinic, to verify that you're the right person for the paper work the phlebologist asks for your date of birth.

I found an antique  glass motor oil jar with a hard rubber spout in the basement. Theirs still some oil in it.
I never noticed until just recently that there is the blackend oil soaked corpse of a mouse lying on the bottom. It's like he's in his own little La Brea tar pit. It's sitting on a shelf on the front porch. Got one of those little American flags sticking out of the spout; the kind you see on July 4th. That's where I got it.
So Tiana passes it every day- I never told her its a pickled mouse.

Based on the last presidential debate I would like to demand, at least for the position of president & vice president, a none of the above box to check or maybe if a majority of the registered voters in the country could vote no confidence in the sitting president & vice president they would be replaced by the leader of the senate & the speaker of the house for the remainder of their terms, of course given the current crop of career politicians they might not be any better.

This happened to a friend of ours (Caz). The symapathy she got consisted of Clare saying “If you love me, you’ll swallow that.”

Oh, have I heard that line before.....

I've always thought the scene in The Shining when Dick gets axed was vaguely humorous.

I was so horrified by the sh*tshow I had just witnessed (being a huge fan of the book) that I laughed too.

Although I like to make fun of the videos, I must confess, I seldom miss an episode of the paranormal YouTube channel Slapped Ham.
