I'm dribbling just thinking about that chocolate cake. mmm, caaaaake.

Goats are cool. I remember there was a discussion on here about fainting goats a while ago... I have no idea why. But goats rock, especially pygmy goats, 'cos they're so wee. We have goats up at the uni farm; they were far more interested in trying to eat our boiler suits than the hay and food we handed them.

When I was a kid, Neptune was of far more interest than Santa. Mostly 'cos Neptune and Nurse Jean used to throw us all in the pool on christmas day (for sweets) whereas Santa was just crap. Seriously. Neptune had an elephant. Bugger reindeer.

Did anyone else ever read "politically-correct fairy stories"?

Ah, what a pair of little bastards we were. Perhaps you are my long lost twin. You being the evil one, heh.

But yeah, you rock my socks. *doing an interpretive dance to show my love for AP*

[auralpoison]

Look, I thought I was a tiny Woodward & Bernstein. Bring forth the tooth fairie! I'll bust her shit, too!

The first year I hid in an auntie's I hated closet. The next year, I referred to the guy by his name, Brent. Santa Brent. Viscious beard pulling ensued.

[yuefie]

I went so far as to rip off Santa's faux beard when I was three & ruin it for everyone else. I was a tiny little jerk even then.

Hee, I was too AP. I ruined a christmas party one year because I noticed that Santa was wearing my grandfather's wedding ring. Of course I had to announce it to everyone, and then search the premises for gramps. I new they were pulling a fast one on me and I was not going to stand for it. I think I was 3, maybe 4. In fact I'm pretty sure I still have a picture of me sitting on his lap looking at the camera, all smug and satisfied.

Yufie, Pixie, what pompous asses you are. You know nothing of psychics or spiritual gifts, except your mindless stereotypes and prejudices. I see it fairly knocks you over to find yourself bested by someone you feel should be more humble. And I suppose a woman's place is in the home? Children should be seen and not heard? You are walking anachronisms--thoroughgoing reactionaries in the trappings of feminists. For shame!

And as far as my gifts are concerned, I have not cheapened them by bringing them into this conflict. I have helped several people here, and have offered to help more. I really do offer something unique and positive to this community, and will continue to do so. I'll not be dissuaded or put off by the rantings of a reactionary lunatic fringe consisting of 5 or 6 people out of 7000 members.

Hey, I was terrified of both Santa Claus & Ronald McDonald. I went so far as to rip off Santa's faux beard when I was three & ruin it for everyone else. I was a tiny little jerk even then.

hey pix, i directed her to the community forum. seems like it's just the considerate thing to do since there were NINE views already (sheesh). at this point it doesn't matter what's legit or not, i'm following the "rules" and letting new peeps know what they are so they can follow them too. the mess in here is getting ridiculous already. no one seems to read the intro at all, gah. it would have been so great if the new forum had a time resitriction on starting new threads or at least a manditory intro page (is there even one? huh, i have no idea). whatevah. if we're all just nice and welcoming to the new chicas (and occasional not-an-asshat dude) everything will keep on keepin' on as usual.

oh, goats. their eyes are so strangely wonderful. i really, really loved the petting zoo when i was little. though my little one is absolutely Terrified of most creatures at first. then he just can't get enough of them, but the screaming up to that point just wigs all the animals and other people there right out. seriously, it's like someone is pulling his dang arm off. screechfest.

[auralpoison]

Um, I don't think Mornington looks like Beck. I'm not sure where that came from, I'm guessing it's asshattery. I wish I could rock her sweet little pixie haircut. My head is too lumpy & my hair too kinky. Side topic, interestingly, pixies were mean little motherfucks in folklore. That's why Black Francis settled on the name for the Pixies. It sounds so innocent & innocuous, but they were supposed to be nasty wee pranksters.

It's weird, but this thread put me in mind of fairy tales. I had (have) a book that is the Brothers Grimm on one side & HCA on the other. Unabridged, all the nastiness intact. I had almost completely forgotten the Three Billy Goats Gruff. Must dig it up & reread. Even though the "Ice Queen" gave me night terrors.

I feel my arteries hardening just thinking about that chocolate cake. To think I merely had a simple, perfect peach for dessert tonight. Sucker.

Goats! I loved going to the petting zoo when I was a kid, but I found that the goats were more interested in eating the dixie cups than the goat chow. My best friend lives near Lewisberg, TN & we go to the Fainting Goat Fest almost every year. Goats are weird. My friend is afraid of them. Last year I bought a jelly candle with a plastic goat in the bottom. Good times.

[yuefie]

yuef, what's your take..where the heck did everybody go?!

I dunno, seems legit enough to me, like they are really just looking for some recommendations. They don't seem to be peddling anything, yet. So I say we give suggestions if we have them and see what happens from there.

[pixiedust]

yuef, what's your take..where the heck did everybody go?!

[pixiedust]

Hey guys, do you think the new thread in AB Fab is legit. It started out sounding like spam, but? I might have a legitamate answer to their question although I'm pretty curious about why a massage therapist who doesn't know what minerals are would be looking for new cosmetics that contain them. Especially since just about every day spa I know of is pushing "pureology" right now.

[yuefie]

Psst Yuefie...we don't have to use Cod or Maude anymore!

Oh I know, I just prefer it. I am seriously going to do some extra laps at the pool tomorrow. My ass don't need no help from that damned coma cake!

[pixiedust]

Sounds yummy yuefie. I think I got fat just reading that. It sounds like you had a decent time this evening after all.

Good grief GGG! Now I have this mental image of a petting zoo with trolls and goats.


Psst Yuefie...we don't have to use Cod or Maude anymore!

[yuefie]

Oh. My. Cod.

I had the best chocolate cake tonight, ya'll. Seriously. I am not really a cake fan, I prefer pie most often but was the shiznit! It was beyond any "death by chocolate" cake I've ever had. I have to find out where my sis got it from. She brought it home for dessert, as we were hanging out to celebrating what would have been our mama's 54th birthday today. PJ and I both agree we've never had any cake this moist and chocolatly. It was a really moist cake, with a deep, dark chocolate icing, and a lighter chocolate filling between the cake layers, and covered in shaved chocolate. It was a serious chocolate coma cake!

[girlygirlgag]

AP, that remonds me on Sunday when we took the toddler mayhem to the petting zoo................. good times!

Mornignton has cute hair and good MySpace bulletins!

I like pie.

[pixiedust]

Yep pepper..it's almost like we can start copy/pasteing whole "discussions". And yes, very odd to miss half the posts, but then again "miss " is definitely sujective! There certainly does seem to be a pattern or template.
And I agree with you yuefie that most psychics are a fairly humble lot. I think it helps to get more in touch with the spiritual gifts. Most people who have true gifts don't want to become carnival freaks.

AP you crack my shit up! Mr. Pixie had to ask what was sending me into peals of giggles!

[pepper]

hee, ap.

it's so wierd to go into a thread and only see half of the posts.
but i like it.

mornington, you're cute. but you don't need me to tell you that, i'm sure.
what a dinkus he is eh? i ignore him entirely, not even tempted to peek so reading that post in adfab was funny(ish). love how he starts off with how tired he is of being here and then says something really horrendous in the desperate hope that someone, anyone will give him any little teensy scrap of attention to brighten his lonely, pathetic day. i feel a bit sorry for him, really. not enough to read his tripe though.
it's a bit funny how so many tr*lls follow the same modus operandi to the point of being mistaken for eachother. it's like dating an abusive boyfriend, they all act the same. it's eerie how similar they are.

oh, i lurves me some ignore function! it's a pleasure to read in here again. so nice.

[auralpoison]

Y'know, this thread just gets funnier & funnier with time. Volley after volley, salvo after salvo. Lunge, parry, riposte. Touche! I keep looking for the coin-op machine that dispenses dixie cups of troll chow, but then I realize I don't have any change. *AP wanders off absently mumbling & waving a lone dollar bill*

[psychicfemme]

Eufie...you're a riot. Victim role? Are you kidding me? It should be pretty obvious to you I can take care of myself. I did encourage some closure to all this, but I see you busties (or should I say falsies) just can't deal. So alrighty then. The fact is this place is pretty dysfunctional, and it's pretty clear why. Your previous post to me was condescending in the extreme. Who do you think you are to presume to instruct me on how to better interact with a lot of prima donnas? The people I have desired to interact with have benefited from it. They are who I'm interested in. But the rest of you can't seem to butt the f*ck out. You really can't. You truly can-not. It's amazing. So, I encourage you, take care of your own issues...believe me, that will occupy you for a while.

[yuefie]

Well, I've had to reply to busybody interlopers from my very first day here. The truth is this all would have spun out differently if certain people in here could have had the self-discipline to hold off on their bad attitude, labeling, and caretaking of others long enough to let the actual person I was speaking to reply to me. Now, you all have created such a hostile environment that people here who appreciate me are having to PM me so as not to incur the wrath and drama that's being dished out. Taking an ironic tone of "he-LLO?" is not condescension (if it were, every gay guy in America would be considered condescending...heLLO!). But you probably feel it's condescending of me to tell you that! What I'd like is a cease fire and maybe an apology from I think it was girly girl who set this whole thing in motion (and pixie was not far behind), and then maybe we could start to put this behind us. Hell of a way to welcome a newbie to the board.

Now I've tried, like others here, to give you the benefit of the doubt and explain why you stepped on some toes around here. Instead of trying to gleam some knowledge from this, you insist on being a defensive know it all. You've been asked by several people to back down and just try to not be so abrasive, but instead you continue to be more so. You do not seem to posess the maturity to step back and see what role you may have played in offending others, so I seriously doubt you are really psychic. In my own experience, real psychics rarely used their gift for glory or feel the need to make it all about *them*. And they don't usually play the victim role so willingly. In fact, they are generally a humble lot. You, not so much. You enjoy antagonizing. It's clear you get your jolly's from being abrasive and riling people up. So yes, you are a troll by definition. And I am sure you've made several ignore lists by now. Congrats. Keep it up!
