So what's the endgame here? You want them to suddenly change their minds? You've been watching this play out for a year now... they don't want to, they won't, and honestly, maybe they never will.

Why don't you just tell them to go jump in Lake Michigan? 🙄

And seriously, when are you going to stop pushing Dad to visit his brother? It’s obvious he doesn't want to go, and frankly, being there is doing more harm than good for his brother anyway.
Stop falling for that whole "family is everything" cliché and just look at the reality of the situation.

What you're doing takes a kind of strength most people just don't have... let alone the willpower. And they've already shown you who they are.
You should be proud of yourself, really... you've done more for Barb than anyone ever has.
Keep doing what you're doing, and if anyone gives you grief or tries to judge you—don't second-guess yourself. Just give 'em a piece of your mind.
Actually, you could probably just do it verbally... though I'm sure you're tempted to do more. 😁

Hang in there. 🙂

They do.
I don't know... were they actually decent back when they first started handing them out?
Pretty weak.
No.
Honestly, even the ones we've seen so far are just a waste of time...

Rachel Gonzalez7 said:You can't even bring yourself to insult a tiny baby anymore!

Well, maybe I’ve grown a bit, but it’s hard to stay sharp when my intentions aren't even aimed at being difficult... 😁

I mean, what else is intelligence for if not for being arrogant?

That’s more for the fools... 😂

Rachel Gonzalez7 said:Once these qualifiers wrap up, maybe the two of us could battle it out for third place.

Hold on, let's aim for first. 😁
I’d split the glory in a way that makes Alexander Parker69 look like he’s full of himself, while you come out looking like the smart one... 😂

hollowviper72 said:By the way, Jack Harris3 and Nestlé have been chatting my ear off... they owe me a massive favor now, those two lovely souls.

Man, I can't believe you don't see the sheer depth in our discussions. So ignorant! 🙄😁

And where am I supposed to find a truly lovely soul? 😢 Do you actually know anyone who fits the bill? 😁

Larry Hayes5 said:Parsifal would probably just say, "Shut it! You haven't even studied this!" 😬

I mean, what does he actually know? Up in the Midwest, we’re basically working jobs by the time we're in fourth grade, and we finish college before we even hit preschool... 😁

Anyway, reading through your post, it sounds like you’ve definitely had some run-ins with certain weeds before... 😉
But hey, if that's how you feel, I guess... though I really think you nailed the last part of that second sentence. 😁

Anyone else feeling this way? 😁
It’s pretty funny watching people get all defensive when you suggest they don't actually need to smoke...
Honestly, I think I’d be a lot more functional if other people just had a bit more faith in me than I have in myself. 😛

shadowgardener12 said:It’s really just that same primal instinct driving everything... whether it’s reaching for a drink... or finding peace through yoga... it’s all coming from the exact same place, just different ways to get there 😉

Not being able to even take a step without relying on sticks. 😁
Just pure Klecovix... 🙄😁

See, I’m telling you, yoga doesn't do a damn thing for you... 😁
But then again, if "licking your own backside" was actually the goal, the target would probably be a lot easier to reach... 😁

Larry Hayes5 said:Think about it... even without any substances involved, people constantly lose touch with who they really are. They go down these paths of total alienation from their own sense of self, just trying to build up these walls to protect themselves from the absolute circus they create for their own lives.

So what? Everyone's out there living life, and everyone makes mistakes along the way... 😁

So, what kind of emotion actually drives someone to just blow up and completely lose their sense of direction?
Is it just that raw fear of having to face who they really are... and everything else out there? 😛

Ryan Wilson2 said:Plus, most people just find some kind of purpose within their own little bubble.

But then again, I guess that's also part of the whole "meaning" of being alive... just keeping the species going... 😁

Paul Campbell3 said:...so yeah, I probably should've just kept my mouth shut.😁

Oh, please! You should've just told them you were Pesica and you could've held your own for a good thirty minutes. 😁

Dragonfly said:I could say just about anything at this point, but if my gut is right, I might be on my knees by tomorrow...

And then what? Is it the end of the world for the 3,876th time? 😁

It’s pretty obvious you haven't learned much from everything that's happened before... 😛
The whole point isn't about refusing to kneel... the real trick is wearing good knee pads. 😁

Paul Campbell3 said:... that’s just what growing up looks like😁😁

Honestly, I’m more worried about accidentally making the same stupid mistakes down the road...😁😁

I’ve never seen anyone act less mature than you... 😉

What exactly are you so afraid of? Why is the future suddenly so high-stakes and different from the past that you felt okay doing things then, but now you can't?
Don't you see how ridiculous that sounds? 😁
And to say that right after giving us that whole lecture on "freedom"... 😂 🙂

Maybe spend a little more time thinking about that one... 😁

Give me some details. 😁😛

P.S. The casual chat threads are down below! 👎

Paul Campbell3 said:over time I've learned that you can only look like a fool in front of other people;

Dragica Fly ( 😂😂😂 ), listen... once you get to be as old as I am, you'll realize the only person you can actually look like a fool to is yourself, or maybe to someone even more clueless than you are. 😁
If you're smart, you'll just count that as part of "growing up"... 😁

Is that really how you see it?
Then the whole theory just doesn't hold water. 😁

One of the defining traits of a fool is simply being unaware that they're a fool... 😁

Exactly. 😁

(Basically just coming to terms with the fact that you don't know anything at all. Or maybe that's just philosophy? 🤔😁)

EQ = Keeping your eyes peeled while you read. 😁

SQ = Delta Air Lines = Finally grasping what actually drove a poet to put those specific words on the page... 😉
