My brother sent me some music to listen to by Nana Kitada. One of the songs is a cover of GreenDays "Basket Case".
I think my brother might be interested more in what she looks like than any musical talent she might have! LOL

I figured it out... what tripped me up was the friend request and I had sent a message asking if you were Husky (I should have worded it differently-lol) before I would respond to the request…and then the tavern came back up and you said you don’t send friend request…so I thought it must not have been you on FB. I was only concerned someone was impersonating you on FB- I’m a slightly paranoid person at heart -especially when it comes to the internet! Sorry if I made a mountain out of a mole hill! I would very much like to drop it now please and thank you

Yeah, I think Husky sent me a friend request on FB but I wasn't sure (duh!-I should have asked if it was Husky)? I'm sorta a paranoid person and I don't 'collect' friends on FB, so I only have friends and family on there and I don't think anyone can see anything on there.

FFF, if the ducks start talking back AND you can understand them...then you have gone crazy! lol
I live on a farm, I was out talking to my little calf before the sun rose this morning!

Me? I try to treat others as I wish to be treated myself. I have nothing against religions, just not for me, thank you. I have been told by many that if I don't practice THEIR religion, then I will go to hell. OK, so be it. I'll find out when I die, won't I. Personally, I think that I will die and decompose and that will be that. I will leave a legacy of children and grandchildren behind to carry on as they see fit with whatever teachings that I have been able to give them.

I do not want to get into a religious discussion here, because I think it is pointless. I won't be changing my viewpoint any. If you wish to follow and believe in a religion, then that is your perogative, enjoy.

====================================
I enjoyed Elfen Lied, but it did seem a bit big in the bloodletting dept, eh?



I agree with you Husky (mostly).

I'd like to think that I follow Gods Laws pretty well, but I don't listen to preachers and as a rule, I do not like any religion. I'm not going to try and change anybodies minds to think the way I do... I'm nice to people who stop by my house (even Jehovah's Witnesses), but no ones going to change my views. They can think I'm wrong and Damned, but then they would just be proving my point-which is-here on earth, we are not the judge... The Hypocrisy thats what really gets me!

False-I don't mind motorbikes, I can take them or leave them.

quote:

As for how to deal with it: I don't. Simply put, I have a philosophy of doing something to the best of my abilities, and only when I cannot advance do I ask for help. Occasional small favours aside, if anyone asks me to do something they can clearly do on their own, I refuse flat out without bothering to give any explanation. If they demand for one, I just say "because you can do it yourself."

I can come across as cold because of that, but I seriously hate people who won't even try.



Often I do just tell her no, but her son, some of her nieghbors and most of her friends are so used to her demands that they either (A) don't answer their phones (B) just agree to the task or (C) stop being friends with her.
Nausicaa_Cat said everybody has a reason, but I'm not sure why this womans is the way she is... Her only sibling was 10 years older than her and it's my understanding growing up he never really gave her the time of day, her father was an alcoholic and died when she was 9, her mother though, was a very headstrong woman, she owned/operated grass business for over 30 years-she did hard labor on the job.
I'll just tell ya'll, the woman I am refering to is my x-husbands mother, her and I are better friends now than we were the whole 9 years her son & I were together...go figure. Anyways I have 3 daughters and they get aggravated with her too. I try to teach my girls to be independent and self reliant. When I change the oil on my truck, do a tune up, use a circular saw or just paint a room, at least 1 of my daughters is around to help/learn.... I gotta say my main reason for doing this is because I do not want them end up like my mother in-law...
Stepping off my soapbox now!

I found the music to be annoying, but I knew it wasn't Bridget Mendler singing it because my 10 yr old likes her music and she doesn't sound anything like that.

I don't agree that chivalry in all its forms is incompatible with equality for women. Take opening doors for women example, a classic example of chivalry - I hold doors open for people all the time, I see it as simply a polite thing to do, I don't see why being chivalrous in such a manner would demean women at all. Equally when I'm at work I often have to live heavy boxes of rubbish and try to get into these high cages - a task for me which is extremely difficult and often painful if I drop it on myself. I don't think there's anything wrong with allowing/expecting a nearby guy who is obviously stronger and taller and could easily complete the task to help me. I'm not saying women should be put on this pedestal and helped and nurtured in every way, but it's still nice when men are respectful and helpful.

It is hugely annoying when women though, without immediate help available, feel themselves incapable of taking on an unpleasant task. You can't rely on others to help you all the time.


I agree with you, it's nice when a man sees a woman struggling with something and offers to help. For example last week I was carrying a new car battery and my wiggly 4 year old nephew out to my truck and I was taken by surprise when a man came up took my battery and put it the back of truck for me. It was a super nice thing to do and I thanked him for it profusely. If your having trouble and someone offers to help-great, but using men for menial tasks because you think it's their job-thats not cool.

Good point! I'll have to borrow that last line from you sometime

Manipulating "damsels in distress"… Go to Thread Search for Posts by Mokiepoet Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I know a healthy 55 year old woman that literally cries to try and get things done cheaper or calls family or neighbors for simple things like taking out the trash or setting a mouse trap. And she wouldn't even think about doing something like mowing her lawn or or fixing a leaky toilet (according to her thats mans work)...

It really gets under my skin when a women plays the “I’m just a helpless woman” card all the time! Come on it's the 21st century for crying out loud! I am by no means a women’s libber, but I defiantly believe in this day and age after all the demands for equality and everything- women of all ages should put on their big girl britches and do simple tasks around the house and on their cars. Open a book or learn by trial and error. As the old saying goes, Knowledge Is Power!!

What do ya'll think? Do you know any women that act like they shouldn't get their hands dirty unless they are making a garden?

Is this a hobby of yours Jeff44? I made a video last year for a Birthday present for a friend of mine, it took a while, but it was a lot of fun!
