Look, BITCH. I've had enough of personal attacks from you and the others here. I'm not neurotic and I'll kindly thank you to stop saying that I am.

I AM nice; anyone who knows me will attest to that. I will remain nice UNTIL people start their crap with me. When I post an opinion about something I do it in a generic way. I don't single people out, yet some descend on me like vultures, acting as though I DID single them out.

I have the RIGHT to post my opinion and I have the RIGHT to find distaste and disgust in certain behaviors and I have the RIGHT to state that fact.

Lori and I disagree on a lot of issues, yet we remain civil to one another. That's because she knows that I don't have anything against her personally, and vice versa. She is a great person and I like her and value her intelligence and wit, even though we may not agree on all of the issues all of the time.

If you need to start a site called "Only One Opinion is Welcome -- Mine," then, by all means, have at it.

I've been attacked by you absolute MONSTERS for at least two days now and I'm quite freaking sick of it. I have been called stuck up, rude, thinking that I'm smarter than everyone else, had my profession insulted, my looks insulted, my body insulted, and everything else under the son, all for expressing an OPINION that DIFFERS from yours. You can disagree with my opinion all you want, but you're crossing the line when it comes to these personal attacks. It's getting beyond old, and I want it to stop.

And don't even try to say I started it, because I didn't. All I did was say that I find certain activities distateful and objectionable and, in typical fashion, those who do those sorts of things get SUPER offended by it..like how DARE she judge us? and launch one of their vulturous attacks, tearing my "theoretical" flesh from my body until they've had their fill.

What the HELL is WRONG with you people, anyway? Is attacking people personally how you justify your low self-esteem? I can't figure it out. I have not said or done ANYTHING to deserve this constant barrage of smart-ass quips, digs and downright vicious treatment. I've not said anywhere NEAR what I've wanted to, what I could be saying. I could tear every single one of you apart in the same way you are doing me, if I wanted to.

However, it's relatively clear that you're goading me in an effort to get me banned. Some people just cannot understand that not everyone thinks the way that they do. You people think you're liberal. You're not the least bit liberal. You have the audacity, the unmitigated gall, to say that people should have the freedom to do what they want, say what they want, but that's ONLY if they agree with you and jump on your "anything goes" bandwagon.

People think that they have to engage in all kinds of disgusting behavior and talk about all kinds of trash in order to be accepted. Well..I don't. Like I said, I don't "walk the wheel." There was a time when I did things that were contrary to what my conscience said I should do, but I grew up and I realized that how I think, what I believe, is PERFECTLY OK. It's OK to strive to be virtuous; it's PERFECTLY OK to want to do the "right thing."

And if you guys don't like that about me, if you can't accept that about me, then you can just kiss my ass.

No, I bring it up when people make snide remarks about it or references to it. I did bring up the fact I just landed a new account, because it included very rigorous testing and I was proud that I got through all of it. In fact, I passed two of four phases and got hired already, even though I haven't done the other two phases of testing yet. And I'm damn proud of that, too!

And how does bringing up what I do in any way suggest that I'm smarter than anyone else? That's a mystery to me.

When someone called me on my use of the word "genitals" instead of "gentiles," he suggested I didn't know the meaning of the word. So I stated that I'm an editor...in other words, it's my JOB to know meanings of words, so it's highly unlikely I don't know the meaning of such a simple word as "Gentiles." Hell, I AM one!

So ...by my bringing up the fact that I'm an editor and that's why I know meanings of words, that makes me think I'm smarter than everyone else???

WhatEVER!!!! Some of you people have some serious issues to contend with. You should work on your own self-esteem, and you don't build up your esteem by putting others down.

There is a big difference between self estemm and ego trips...





------ THIS THREAD IS LOCKED AND DOES NOT ALLOW REPLIES ------

it is indeed disappointing when I allow myself get drawn into a "I know more than you do" discussion mentality, be you and editor, carpenter, or a mother of 4, be you a electrician , mathamatician, or hairdresser. One thing isstands out and is obvious, we all either LOVE what we do and will defend it or we excel at what we do and will defend our right to do only that.

Those of us who "write essays in response to "threads" why do we do this..... when other its only one line remarks /opinions???? who frigging cares.My words get read by many more than the few who respond to threads... many more.

If someone chooses to use their chosen profession as a reason for what and how they read or write....thats good too...the ideal of reponding with CB lingo (citizen band radio)and comments can be annoying yet amusing, same as a construction trades terminology.

Acknowledging anothers opinions by using the cliche of what you do for a living... as if it grants your posts more validity is classic narcissistic behavior
Am I calling anyone a narcissist?? I currently cannot think of anyone who at one time or another has not been one.

I was getting my stomach pumped out after attending an "all you can eat seafood outing... these words where said by an angel or someone..was not in the =most alert state at the time but they said. "too much of anyhting is bad for you."

"I do not respect someone for what they do for a living... I respect them because they are making a living."

final remark its not what is written it is how it is written... some of us use enough space that kinder words can be used.

The Meaning of a Bi^%CH

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a bitch. When I stand up for those I love, they call me a bitch. When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts, or do things my own way, they call me a bitch.
Being a bitch means that I am free to be the wonderful creature that I am, with all my own intricacies, contradictions, quirks and beauty. Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart. It means I live my life MY way.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it, I am defined as a bitch. The same thing happens when I take time for myself. Instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish, I am proud to be a bitch!

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated, and determined. By God, I want what I want, and there is nothing wrong with that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won't succeed. And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

HOW TO RECOGNIZE A GOOD WOMAN
A good woman is proud. She respects herself and others. She is aware of who she is. She neither seeks definition from the person she is with, nor does she expect them to read her mind. She is quite capable of articulating her needs.

A good woman is hopeful. She is strong enough to make all her dreams come true. She knows love, therefore she gives love. She recognizes that her love has great value and must be reciprocated. If her love is taken for granted, it soon disappears.

A good woman has a dash of inspiration and a dabble of endurance. She knows that she will at times have to inspire others to reach the potential God gave them.

A good woman knows her past, understands her present and forces toward the future.

A good woman knows God. She knows that with God the world is her playground, but without God she will just be played with.

A good woman does not live in fear of the future because of her past. Instead she understands that her life experiences are merely lessons meant to bring her closer to self-knowledge and unconditional self-love.

Back to the subject.... opinions

You asked if one could be paid for opinions, and how much that opinion is worth. Earlier I stated that there should be no price on opinions.

You also asked how smart do we thing we are.

So I'm going to dress these questions.

Opinions are equal. No one person's opinion is more valuable than another person's opinion. Take all the modern day marketing strategies out of this, if you will. Opinions are as personal as each person, and everyone's opinion is as valuable as everyone else's.

As for the smart question.... I think you'd need to be more specific. There are many forms and definitions of being intelligent, and there are many types of intelligence. Some people are musically gifted, or athletically gifted. Some are street smart. Some are good at expressing themselves. SOme can do any equation in their heads. Everyone is a genious at something.

The true test of intelligence is simple. As long as you know who you are within yourself, thats all you need to know. Know who you are inside.

That's just my point. I'm not on an ego trip. If you knew me, you'd know just how absurd a notion that is. It's not MY fault if you or anyone else here has that perception of me, but I shouldn't be put in a position of having to defend myself because of your erroneous judgments.
