I have been having a hard time lately and it is one of those situation where you really ought not say much to the people you have issues with. You try and guide them but that is the best you can do.

I do want to apologize to anyone I have gotten uppedy with in the last few weeks. I have just realized how bad I was getting.

Again sorry.

Anything I said or did more than a month ago still stands though. So does some of the other stuff. I need to be a little more tactful and thoughtful.

I kinda like it. :chair:

Hey, I don't get on general forum to preach the gospel according to oakstave. I just express my opinions, and I'm fascinated by people who don't agree with me.

If everyone comes onto this forum with that spirit, we will all learn something and hopefully question views we haven't questioned before.

In other words, I don't post here to win, I post here to learn.

Agreed Oakstave! I LOVE spirited debate, as the results that come from it usually strengthen my own opinion, sometimes it changes it.

I just post stories i find from Fark.com, which REALLY makes me laugh, because too many times, they post stories that really are stranger than fiction.

My main issue is I don't want agreement but I do want understanding. Many times I have expressed a view that differed from others yet also admitted that their point was valid. I have a point of view just as others but for some reason I get peeved anymore when I can't get people to accept my view as a legitimate alternative. I then force the issue and become just like others and making a fool of myself is some pointless crusade.

I have a lot going on and I am in a constant futile battle around home. Not in my home though. I should be more mature than that and not carry my baggage with me to these forums, at least not all of it.

I've changed my mind a few times too, or at least developed a more nuanced opinion.

Heck, recently I practically did a 180 degree turn... the weird part? The person I was debating didn't even register it.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't get personally angry at people I know online. You're going to have to come over for a cup of tea face-to-face to get me riled up. :)

Bigelow I hope, Vanilla Chai latté or some spiced Chia would be great.

There again Earl Grey with cream and sugar will suffice.

LOL... I used to hate alcohol before I got in the union. I used to hate beer until I journey'ed out of the apprenticeship..

Now an ice cold Bud before bed does the trick :D

Guiness is the weakest taste of brewed beverage I will touch. Tequila for the rest. I did down a bottle of wine the night before last. Yummy. Not cheap stuff but it tasted just as good as the cheap stuff.

See, now your talkin'!! Latte ********, you sound like one of those prissy women in the Starbucks line (and FTR, I hate that place, but my wife loves it :( )

Well I have them with my daughter. I love the taste of only one type though and that is "Vanilla Chia". Besides I buy what I want and drink what I want. ATM I am watching Voltron with my daughter and I like cartoons. I like barbie cartoons and I am 6'2" ~250 so I dont care what many people have to say about it.

A guy did run his mouth one time and I took him shooting with some heavy loads. Never heard any critisizim out of him anymore. His hand was brusied for a week.

88154

That is a medium load for me.

I have loaded them up one time and the cylinder popped open:cry: Man I thought I had killed the gun.

I just express my opinions, and I'm fascinated by people who don't agree with me. I've never been too interested in abnormal psychology. :p

If everyone comes onto this forum with that spirit, we will all learn something and hopefully question views we haven't questioned before.

In other words, I don't post here to win, I post here to learn. I agree and thanks for reminding me! :beer:

Unfortunately, I occasionally forget I'm on stage ... :(
