daf_peace_offering silentbob hmmm i've felt bad the last hour or so you and i have butted heads in the past over things we've said or done, or responses or arguments those are in the past but lately i've felt good towards you, i've had a good attitude about you, like the last few conversations we've had but then you responded and turned it around and accused me of being fake? or something? or... artifial, superficial, something...and... i dont know what i did really to make you think that, but i apologize and offer you this peace offering. 3 its a heart. i've been told they look like crooked nutsacks, but i think they are keen. lets be pals, ok? 030723 ... chandu it's nice to see grudges put away for yesterday, but i'm still going to keelhaul you from my rv daf. 030723 ... chandu someday...some sweet day. and if it's a mistake, well i can always justify it since others will learn from it. 030723 ... Dafremen S'Bob. I call em like I see em. But I DO NOT hold grudges. I react. I'm a friggin U-shaped to0b, a mirror with attitude. (You have no idea how many times I've said this to the missus. You get what you give.) Bob, I've NEVER harbored a grudge against you, but YES, after the times that we have "butted-heads" (which involved me grinning and standing still while you ran into me) I of COURSE am suspicious of your motives. Hey pal, my chart is Scorpio strong among other things. The truth is Bob, I've always liked you as a character here and since you've emailed me, I've grown to care for you as a friend as well, whether it is reciprocated or not. I've never required that someone like me for me to like them. Hell man, we've been here together for 3 years for gawd sake, that HAS to count for something. It does with me. Even dax doesn't get it. (brief message to dax) Dig woman, your attitude toward me has no power to alter my opinion of you other than to make me think that you're wrong about me. Period. Good people don't like bad people. Good people like you. Good people like Bob. Good people even like ME if you can believe such a thing. The logical conclusion? The three of us are good people that simply have different reasons for being here and different ways of expressing ourselves here. That's what I've always thought anyhow. Bob, the piece offering is accepted and I would like to reciprocate with a peace offering of my own: When I get the blather tape, I will make 3 copies. If anything should happen to the blather tape after it leaves here, I will send the other two copies to you and you can decide what to do with them from there. Put me somewhere in the middle of the list. (Typical Libran huh?) Also, my heart is easily reached via email as anyone who has emailed me (minus criticism or venom) knows. You have emailed me Bob. You've already seen my heart. You know what its made of. Your bud, Daf - - 030723 ... Dafremen Chandru - GOOD LUCK chicklette (do0d?) You wouldn't be the first to try and you probably won't be the last to fail dear. Apparently I'm unKEELhaulable, although my old KEESTER could probably use a slight overhaul what with gravity taking its toll and all. Eventually, someone will come along that will smack me into oblivion. Course I'll just come back from oblivion to congratulate them. Hopefully that someone will be you. We'll see, like I said GOOOOOOD luck. 030723 ... x I really don't give a flying fuck what you think about me, and so I have never attempted to change your opinion on the matter. I am unaffected (similarly! to you) by your attempts to change what I think about you. Very plainly, I see you as someone who says "I am not doing (behavior x)" even while doing it. I have no doubt that you arel ying to yourself about this matter, which is why you try to lie to us about it as well. You tout your maturity while performing exactly like that of a clever child. The things you have said about your childhood, I can see clearly manifested in your current behavior. I can also see that you have made progress as a person, but I can also see that you are grossly overestimating yourself at this point. If I were to suggest anything (which apparently is something you believe in, telling other people how it is and what they should be doing), I would suggest that you take a step back and start looking closely at yourself again before continuing to spew your unique misture of shit ad sunshine over the rest of us. You won't do this, of course, because you decided that I was wrong long before you started reading this, but I am letting it be known that I know the score, regardless. 030723 ... Dafremen I believe you said it all right there. You might want to take that step back yerself dear. Honestly. As I am so fond of teaching my children...don't let ANYONE tell you who you are, not even me...YOU know who you are and that's all you need. I KNOW who I am, I have spent long months in isolation, out in the woods, meditating and contemplating the whats whos wheres and whys of what and who I am and what it is that I need to do while I am here. It's somewhat sad to meet a human being who is so out of touch with who THEY are that they project that onto another whom they not only don't know, but really never took the time to and likely won't. As I said, take that step back that you suggested. It's very good advice, that you obviously have never followed yourself. I say that with all the love and respect that I could have in my heart. Whether that sprays sh*t on yer shirt or not is up to you I guess. In case you hadn't noticed in the 4 or 5 odd years that you've been here..this is also a creative writing site. You might try reading it like one some time. Daf 030724 ... critic maybe you should go back to the woods.. 030724 ... x you've proven my point beautifully. thanks. :) 030724 ... lost its nice to see that your still stirrin' things up daf it's been a while since i've posted nice to see that some things don't change. 030724 ... Dafremen Unknown blatherer - If you think I didn't see that coming from about 20 miles away with my glasses off when I first wrote that blather, you've mistaken me for someone you're qualified to rip into. I assure you that you're not and I'm not. Dax - Cute, but an avoidance and you know it. If all you have to offer are snide little digs and glib responses, I believe it's MY point that stands proven. Time will vindicate that statement. lost - I don't stir things up, I write and people react and then the little cyclone gets to spinning and my brain wants to write some more and WHEEEEE!!! Missed you around here too kiddo. Where have you been? 030724 ... x actually, no. that's just your opinion (maybe, or maybe it's just you trying to save face and fool the monkeys). 030724 ... Dafremen Apparently at least one semi-anonymous munkey was fooled long ago...huh? 030724 ... Dafremen By the way folks, you heard her. I'm an @sshole and any of you that don't believe that, well..you're monkeys. 030724 ... Dafremen You realize that this petty bickering can't be good for S'Bob. 030724 ... Dafremen I'm going to withdraw from this for just that reason. You've got yer opinion and yer free to express it. Have at it. I won't be back here. Again Bob, thanks for the hit off of the peace pipe. 030724 ... critic as to unknown, i've popped my head in every once in awhile and put my two cents in...as do you. we're all unknown, as you exemplified, "If you haven't emailed me, yer fictional characters in the blather_book. Period." just because i don't write as copiously as you (i believe it's been called blather diarrhea) does not mean my two pennies are less value than yours... 030724 ... lost well right now i dont have any internet access. until i move which i have to do in a little less than a month so i'll be online more then. 030821 what's it to you? who go blather from
