TAN 75: Yanti wouldn't start me. (Page 12)

Spokes - 2009-05-12 10:16 AM I just love how some 'old time' BTers beat on me every chance they get. Hell with it. Next time someone asks a vanity question, I'm going to keep my fingers shut. (see the tanline question).

We live in such an incredibly insecure society. As long as you practice good hygiene, brush your teeth, take care of yourself and don't let yourself blow up to 400#, who cares about what you look like or what flaws (physical) you may have as a person?

Yanti... I'm so sad that you are leaving... one more obstacle for us to overcome... *sigh* oh my...

TriAya - 2009-05-12 8:24 AM "I'm going to Carolina, in my mind"

Actually, I'm headed back home to Indonesia. Time to take care of the 'rents before they croak.

Spokes - 2009-05-12 10:27 AM I wasn't really talking about the 'other' thread as much as it just slays me - especially after seeing the Trek movie last night - overhearing other people complain about the most petty stuff. 95% of the people I see walking around don't *have* problems, particularly in the burbs around here. Go downtown - or into Midtown - and you see street people, bums, folks with obvious psychological problems or handicaps, and yet most of them are nice people simply trying to struggle through every day (aside from the obvious panhandlers who *could* work but choose not to do so. So I choose not to give them $$$ when they ask for it).

Its like there's this whole generation of individuals - although it isn't a single generation, just affluent people in general - that walks around with a plastic collar - you know, like the ones they put on animals to keep them from scratching their heads/eyes/ears etc - restricting their entire world to me me me me.

I care.  I want to look the best I possibly can at all times.  And I do that for myself.

akustix - 2009-05-12 10:30 AM

ooh ooh.... I have a plastic collar... several in fact... some are little white tabs... one goes all the way around...

Oh, darlin'. Don't be a stranger. We is gonna miss ya!

TriAya - 2009-05-12 9:34 AM

{{{MELON PRESS}}} for you, too.

Last I heard, they still have Internet over there.

crowny2 - 2009-05-12 9:40 AM

Good. Remember that.

Otherwise we might all have to come over and kick ur butt.

TriAya - 2009-05-12 10:44 AM

That could be fun.

I just realized ... who's going to take care of my tarantula??? I could sell her and she's worth some money, but ... but ...

olliedawg - 2009-05-12 9:44 AM I won the Tri Training Bible raffle!  Sweet!  Does anyone else have this?  Is it something to be excited about?

crowny2 - 2009-05-12 9:40 AM

olliedawg - 2009-05-12 9:50 AM

Call your local zoo. We take tarantulas all the time.

Sprint_DA - 2009-05-12 9:52 AM
I'm with Crowny on this one. We'd miss you if you were to disappear.

Chaderbox - 2009-05-12 9:51 AM Whoa, a tarantula! Everytime I take a shower after Mrs Chad, and there's a huge hairball in the drain, I run screaming out of the bathroom that there's a tarantula in there. I figure if I keep doing it enough, she'll eventually think it's funny.

I'm gonna agree with Dan here (yes, Hell is freezing over as we speak). I care about how I present myself. And it has nothing to do with my being affluent (cuz I'm not) or it being all about "me, me, me" (cuz it's not). You can do stuff for yourself without being selfish, if that makes any sense.
