Seriously, people lose their minds during the drama.
Someone here said something to me in the heat of the moment that I found so offensive that I temporarily removed them from the list of people I’d like to meet one day. One of those things you just look at the screen and shake your head.
Sometimes good people let that **** person inside themselves out. It happens to everyone. It’s not who they actually are just like it’s not who sunset really is.
I added the spoiler so you that don't enjoy the drama don't have to read it.
I disagree with its not who they/we are. It might not be who we are most of the time or even often, but we said or did it. I could see it building up in Sunset back when he first brought up the iron skillet thing. He backed off because Volly agreed about not using soap on it. I believe he had a hard on for me because I didn't let it go. My bad, I should have.
That dram you get involved in with Rex and BigO is a different type but it's still drama and you say some stuff that gets under my skin. I believe you have done the "work" and genuinely believe what you believe, and that's who you are and I accept it.
I always liked Sunset, still do. For his sake he should have apologized and moved on. I don't need him to, but it would have made your statement about "it's not actually him" easier to argue.
Anyway, none of this is a big deal I just wanted to add my thoughts. My problem is I don't see it as drama. I've always been interested and fascinated by human behavior and when I found a message board, I felt like I hit the jackpot.
I get what you’re saying but I just don’t care for real drama anymore. Pretend drama is fine. For example BigO and I text. That drama isn’t real. Rex I genuinely dislike so I Tanked the drama with him. I don’t know if you saw our last interaction but it was my last with him ever.
I think you’re right though. I saw the iron skillet thing. I cook every morning on one and never use soap. I had no problem with you continued humor on that subject. It was a strange reason for him to escalate from. That’s why I believe he’s struggling in real life. I guess with my dad I’ve learned that I don’t have the energy for the real drama anymore
That drama between you and BigO ain't fake to others. Just so you know. That said, it doesn’t really matter. Joking or not if I wasn't who I was and know who you are, you said some things to him that would have caused some big drama. Lol. I guess my point is, its easy to misread on here. Just like that thing with Nev during the OM game with me not knowing what "Let's go Lane" meant.
And on your dad.
Long story short....I see your posts. I get lumps in my throat. I pray. Just like I see posts about H, Mojos wife, Tiffany etc. I still pray for Wylo (Keith) and his sister Melissa. I'm just not one to talk about on here unless it's really tugging at my heart. I don't feel like I need to constantly remind anyone that I'm praying for them. If I say I am, I am.
Pretty sure you knew that, but I felt it "tugging". I've got a dad too and he's pushing 80. What you're dealing with has had a positive effect on me with my dad. God works in ways we can't comprehend.
Heard a song Thursday I'd never heard before by Cody Johnson. If you haven't heard it, try it. Called Til you can't. The part about dad got to me.
Okay, lol, I'll shut up now. Good talk.
I think you misunderstood my point, but it's not important anyway.with all due respect I really don’t care if others think the drama I’m in is real or not. My comment to you was I didn’t really pay attention to sunsets drama because I’m trying to stay out of real drama. What that means is I’m keeping myself out of real drama for my own well-being. If fake drama doesn’t effect my well being then I’m all in as that is still fun for me. If that appears as hypocrisy to others then they’re entitled to that opinion. It doesn’t affect me in any way.
Like now for example. Outsiders would think this conversation is or is leading too drama. It’s not. You and I have proven that we can have conversations that may seem on the edge and nobody gets their feelings bruised.
As a final thought, notice my post that started this spoiler conversation was an attempt to defuse that high strung exchange with humor. That’s why I addressed Exie and asked her what was happening in her thread.
Anyway it’s all good brother
City told us this Monday that they plan to cut down every tree, healthy or not, from ..., and put 6’ wide sidewalks on both sides of the road. And that since that would be so expensive (!!!), they can’t afford to extend the sidewalk beyond that down to the park, forcing everyone to walk in the street.@VolNExile, what’s happening with the street side trees?
Our city does not appear to understand the concept of “sunk cost.” If something has been funded in the budget, it must be done, no matter how impractical, loathed, useless, contrary to established policy, and downright stupid it might be. Note: this mindset is definitely not confined to our city administration.
