    more like radicalised by fascist lunatics, but yes its worrying - if you look at the way a lot of people on facebook are talking about muslims and replace the word muslim with jew, you could be in Germany in '36

    You can say over and over again that IS and AQ are as representative of Islam as the KKK and Christian Identity are of Christianinty but it just doesnt go in

    (also the IRA killed for more people on mainland uk that these latest fuckwits, but we didn't deport all the Irish or ban Catholicism (admittedly we did try internment without trial in ulster - but that was collosal mistake))

    Sorry, being overly artistic in my posting. My friend is being turned against all Muslims, and civil liberties, by the actions of a few Muslim extremists.

    The gap in between dimensions
    My sisters friend was over and her friend is having issues with her baby's daddy and is going through a custody dispute with him regarding her child. Mom was talking with her as well because she's had her own experience when she fought for me and my brother..... But there is a world of a difference between the two situations.

    She cheated on my dad, and when my sister asked why did she pick such an ugly bastard as a " sperm donor " my mom answered that she was drunk and didn't know better. As if that makes things better.

    I couldn't even talk, because everything my mother said was sugar coating her faults and poor decisions and listening to it was pissing me off so much I started shaking a little as I was trying to eat my cereal which was starting to bother my stomach because I'm getting angry and trying not to show it. WOW!!! My day just instantly went to shit because of somebody else's conversation.

    OH and mom was talking about kicking me to the curb and how I needed to find a woman so my mother didn't need to take care of me anymore. Yep. That pissed me off. Right in front of someone I barely know too. And when did I EVER have the opportunity to meet a decent woman that would have loved me enough to not ruin my life the way my mother ruined my fathers and mine? Any girl I tried to get to know either never gave me a chance or worse yet they ended up dating a loser and I was so offended by it I didn't bother talking to them anymore. That's gotta be how my dad felt when he met my mothers boyfriend.

    But I don't expect anyone who is normal, healthy and capable of looking after themselves to understand how frustrating it is to depend on people who can only pretend to be good people, but actually are screw ups. Normally this is where a person would ask themselves how their life ended up this way, but looking back on how my life went I'd say I'm actually doing a lot better then what most people in my situation would have done. After all I'm still alive, not on hardcore drugs and never been to jail. All good things.

    I feel ya on the dating thing, sir.
    It happens, but you just got to
    keep on keeping on.
    I am divorced, but it was her
    fault. But I know what you
    mean. The women I seem to
    attract are either crazy or
    are middleage guys.
    I don't get it myself, but hey
    thats life, and it can get kinda
    weird. :p

    (I want a sugar mama):p
    (And also not to have to live
    alone in a house in the middle
    of nowhere) Come on lucky stars
    don't fail me now! :D

    If it isn't one thing, it's your mother. The only person capable of ruining your life is you. Suck it up, find a way to get your own place and start living the only life you'll ever have.

    • Trump supporters trying to tell me that Kathy Griffin is a disgusting traitor who needs to be in jail and waxing lyrical on how liberals are destroying the country.

    • Being yelled at by the secretary for something I didn't do.

    • I'm turning bigoted against Catholic people for no goddamned reason. GREAT! As if I didn't have enough flaws I needed to fix. >:[

    The worst part is, if I dared strike back, if I dared act like an ass, I'm the big bad guy. But it's totes OK if they do it.

    I picked out a delicious lunch, queued in the proper British way, got to the till... and realised I'd forgotten my purse, with all my cards and money in it. It's at home. I'm at work.

    I don't eat breakfast, I can't buy lunch, and I won't be home for another four hours.

    I'M HUNGRY.

    Let's all help @Tenderiser out. Surely looking at pictures of food will ease those hunger pangs, right?

    That's why the last one was a search for "gorgeous vegetarian meal".

    Yes, I am that evil.

    Yeah but imagine it was one of your co-workers in the same position - I'm sure you'd want them to ask you rather than GO HUNGRY! And borrowing a fiver till tomorrow cos you forgot your wallet is no biggie. Really.

    O, MS Word 2016 on a Mac, how do I hate thee?

    Let me count the ways...

    Your "Smart Look-Up" function for spell-check sucks donkey schlong since it doesn't work without internet connection, something Macs laugh at since all applications on a Mac do (or should, you insufferable twit) have access to the same set of internal dictionaries, thus streamlining resources.

    Get thee to the edge of the balcony, that I might push thee over with greater ease. Go on, now. Go.
