Most Commented HowTo Blogs (280)

As with banning, Nazi Krystalnacht Jewish bookburning, and many other cowardly fears of others' ideas and free expression of same, to what end?
Recently, another CS political blogger of my own ilk, said they complained about written abuse by another, and asked for my support. I said several things in my reply.
I wrote that I have never done these things, even though I have suffered vulgar abuse from a few here, even as to my physiognomy, writing, knowledge of foreign tongues, and much more. Perhaps someday I will draw the line at threats of physical violence, but have not yet done even reporting to CS of such. Usually, the latter display fear and powerlessness, rather than courage, especially given the anonymity, and great distances involved. One poster, misunderstanding my writing, threatened to tear off my limbs--he seems long gone. A female, also likely under the influences of some substance, and perhaps untreated serious illnesses, said she'd like to put a red hot poker up my glory hole, former station of delight, for criminally deranged homosexuals, in the church of my boyhood.
I did comment on how many of these folks display serious syndromic disturbance, as I've often said. Often couched in silly humour as to my Institutet, the finding and charge still stand. As evidenced by the endless strident America/Trump hating obsessions and compulsions, support for fascist one party States, failure to track in all but one rigid direction, and much more. Sure, all show weakness of character as well, likely low levels of information, and likely stem from many admitted, even virtue signaled, personal failures in life. Beyond pathetic, and perhaps without remedy, given the seriousness and longstanding nature of the challenges.
So I will let the banning stay with that hottie CS cyberscrutinizer. We all know, but only some admit, that banning is the height of anti democratic mindsets. Practiced routinely also in Communist, one party states, and often by selective "journalism", also by many media outlets.
But as always, we invite your free comments.

Perhaps, once again I'd like to heard opinions from members here about a situation... and sorry in advance that it is going to be about Crocodile again!

I think I upset a lot of members here by keep posting my sad love story... in fact, I know that my love to Crocodile is a tragedy. I want to stop. I want to look for someone else! But the problem is that over 2 years passed, I still can't help myself think of any one other than Crocodile! :(

I have been on this site since broke up. Exchanged emails and skype nick with few people long time ago but after just several emails or one time chat I recognized that I don't want to go further with anyone because Crocodile is still fully inside my heart, so I deleted and blocked all!

I love Crocodile a lot... and I think Crocodile does love me too! But Crocodile has special reasons from his kids that he has to choose leaving me... :(

So, the question is: if you were Crocodile, mean you have to be in the situation that you have to leave your love for your kids, do you want your love being a single forever to keep pure friends relationship with you? OR, you prefer your love find someone else to be with so that you don't feel guilty as if she is abandoned by you?

I think I know what I want and what I should do. For sure I don't need an advise what to do and what should I do in this situation. Just I'm curious about how people think and do in the position of Crocodile in this case... I'm really curious about this... so, I would be appreciated to hear your opinions....

Thank you and goodnight!

I even don't understand what I am missing in my profile no any girl response me yet I really need help ,...??????

In the unlikely event that anyone would like to reply to Lee's rant, this is the place to do it.

Outburst No.1
Yes it seems like a simple thing to do, but sometimes they pose as a regular poster, someone who wants to just have a laugh and join in, but in time their true agenda is revealed and they start to attack others with personal attacks and they always try to justify their wicked ways to everyone…they will play the role of the harmless victim, while at the same time throwing disgusting insults at their target….

They start to stalk their target and try to provoke them, but some targets are smart, have seen it all before and learned from the experience, so those trolls must walk with their devil tails between their legs, because their spineless tactics don’t work….

..Don’t let them get into your head, don’t allow them to feed off your reactions, your angry reply posts is like gold in their hands, your emotional outbursts are like heaven in their hands, because they do want to break you down and make you blow a gasket….
They want you to be their puppet and be able to pull your strings, anytime they want to, so watch out for their tactics….

Enter the magic - buffed out completely with toothpaste

In my chequered past I was once a letting agent so have known for years that white toothpaste is the handiest and most effective way of filling nail-holes left in walls (sets harder than concrete) but now I have another reason to carry toothpaste in my DIY arsenal

I have been thinking lately have things seem to be quieting down on CS; how not as many members blog or post, and how many have left.

With the advent of Proficiency's blog, one of a personal and yes, controversial spiritual nature, it occured to me that perhaps others among us would like to write our thoughts in such a blog but feel this is not the appropriate forum for it, that our blog would be criticized, not understood, suffer from non-participation or worse ignored...in summation, it takes bravery to post a blog because of unspoken assumptions about what is acceptable or interesting, and what is not.

What if we gave everyone a blanket free pass to write a blog freely on things important to them or that they'd like to discuss, nothing profane or hurtful, but just allowing true creative juices to flow.

Seriously, how many really good conversations do we have going on here? What would be some good topics?

Comment freely, for in keeping with the current, I will probably delete this blog soon.....

After 10 years, Ive decided to post a blog so I can keep track of my blog comments!

The meaning of life

Looking at our purpose of being here, find a mate, procreate and live with the basic necessities of life which are food, clothing and shelter.

However, this world of ours is full of greed and deception, Sickness and starvation, most of us strive to be the best we can within our own individual circumstances, none of us is alike and our expectations and the reality of our lives are very different.

What’s missing?

What else do we need to ensure our lives are fulfilled and how do we achieve them?

The obvious answer is happiness and a sense of wellbeing, once we have the basic necessities of life we each need to find our own way, other people’s expectations seem to dominate what we are looking for, we need to find our own way.

There are some steps we can take:-

Friendships- Having friends who are there for you when you need them and vice versa are a must.

Give, don’t just take- Be charitable and help others in need, be kind and generous.

Communicate- We get this wrong all the time, take some time to speak to someone, on the phone or in person, emails and texts are fine some of the time but we tend to either type too much or too little to convey what we really want to say, this leads to confusion or misunderstandings.

Be Realistic- We all live in a bit of a dream world, high expectations and peer pressure are the cause of so many problems, from finding an ideal mate to an ideal job and more...Be yourself, live within your means and stop worrying about what others have.

How about emoticon free comments?( Not a rule)

Keeping a dog brings responsibilities. It will need attention, shelter, food, and most importantly, water. Dogs need a lot of water. Being away from home for a full day sometimes can easily get your dog stuck without water. The other day I took insurance against that.

I rescued the discarded toilet cistern that was replaced with a new job and, at the flea market, I picked up an old wash-up basin going cheaply. The odds and ends in my garage made up for the rest.

I started by removing the flushing mechanism from the cistern. Then I mounted it and the wash-up basin on ground level against the wall (in the shade), right next to each other. I connected the two outlets with each other using PVC drain pipes and sealed the joins with silicone sealer. To complete the job, I connected the installation with the cold water supply via a stopcock. Job done in less that one hour.

It works like a dream. The cost? All in all, with our crummy exchange rate, probably under US$10. Ah, that reminds me: Our finance minister got a nomination for a Nobel Prize in chemistry. He managed to turn our currency into a ball of poo! The contraption is a bit unsightly at the present but I will paint it when I paint the house and it should blend in with the environment smoothly.



As the dog drinks water, the water level drops and the ball in the cistern follows it. The valve opens to let more water in until the water is replenished. My dog has a steady supply of water, even if the water supply should be interrupted for a few hours. No more worries about water.

All I need now is a contraption to dispense his food at regular intervals and a gadget to scratch his head from time to time. Any suggestions? Just don’t bother me with royalties. I will modify your design enough to circumvent any copyright laws.


Have a great day, will you?
