TDS Social vs. where Darksiders come to play

Not open for further replies.
Read everything I wrote, and note my very first response was to an disrespectful individual who took today as an opportunity to start *belittling* and disrespecting OUR country, we who fucking live here, and we who've watched fellow men & women get killed while trying to defend ourselves at home & abroad.

How am I wrong for that?

But I guess nobody else here will get scolded by name, or censored for having a real reason to be righteously defensive, and then have the sack to respond publicly to those who publicly disparaged mine & my nation's values, purpose, sacrifice, and honor.
I don't need to defend myself on any of this; it's not a matter of right vs left, it's a matter of right vs wrong.

Interrogative:
Hiding behind freedom of speech, location, and board-rules doesn't allow for selective immunity to reprimand, or does it? Censorship in the name of "fairness", right?

This isn't a lighthearted, fun, social day for me & millions of other Americans, and for good fucking reason.
Excuse the shit out of me for not being "fair", and for meaning EXACTLY what I say..... but it's apparent that it's acceptable to piss down my back for not keeping my mouth shut. I may be a prick, but I'm not for it's own sake. I don't run my mouth about things I have little grasp of; nor have I been mean, hurtful, or rude just out of spite. Those that receive my ire, have truly fucking earned it.

I'll take my licks, but now that I my suspicions have been confirmed about the double-standard here, I don't expect that I'm going to care much about what happens after.

The Love & Light, polite approach doesn't always cut it when dealing with brutal reality, and peoples' feelings are going to get hurt along the way. They'll either cry about it, be paralyzed by fear, begin to hate everything, or just fucking move on and learn to live their own lives.

Me? I'm moving the fuck on. If people can't respect others, handle naked truth, or take what they dish out, it's not mine or anyone else's problem but their own to deal with.
I appreciate those mods who have attempted to save me from myself and keep the peace; but it's evident that I'm not on equal terms with everyone else here, so their efforts are ultimately wasted.

This is my final social statement.
Any "help" I have for people here, is for those who ask alone. I'm not offering up any more of my experience for public consumption, since what I say largely falls by the wayside anyhow.
So read this, digest it, and I hope y'all have a long, happy, safe life. Just don't ever forget those who stood up willingly & died, so that y'all can even have the possibility of enjoying those things.

Ix. Im deeply sorry that i offended you, it was not my intention and my post upon reflection was rather nasty but bein an aussie i suppose i cant really know how deeply the event impacted you as Americans. I was more angry @ the government im taking it this ceromony was to honour the fallen yes?
I feel terrible iv'e opened a big can of worms here.

I am not racist however i strongly oppose many of the "systems" in which we live in throught the world. I'l be tha first to admit i got it fucking easy comapred to say south america or the lower block UK countries, where you can get shot for running down the street im in no way ignorant to the atrocities carried out by these govts/systems and its probably the fact im where i am coz i do have shit easy and see such torment in the world and am very oppinionated or outspoken on them.

Anyways again any people whom i offfended im truly deeply sorry and scar over those thousands of lives lost also.

On a lighter note its a nice day outside, im gunnna get out there today and put my feet in the water, feel the sand, and try and embrace nature a bit. :)

^ thank you. To say that takes more sack than most people possess.

And it takes a lot to get me white-hot angry, you just happened to step right on it.

I have a special affinity for Australians, as both our nations started off as colonies for fuckups, criminals, and people who wanted only to keep what they earn by the sweat of their own brows.
Plus y'all have damn good beer, people, and scenery.

All the police, fire, and military servicemembers already get all the appreciation we could ever hope for, and don't desire stage recognition. For the most part, we'll politely refuse, unless we don't have a choice.

Im glad we could sort it out bro, I have met thru hospitality many Americans and Canadians and yer all very cool people %) . Untill just then when i tried to put myself in those shoes, i didnt understand properly your last statment about the police/fireies/ any one effected, already get all the recognision you could ever hope for and now understand how much of a personal thing it would be to so many. Peace bro. Thats what good in tha end;)
 
^ that man would probably be me, i need to get fitter:|
But fuck it im about to head out for that walk just finished watching Home Alone (dont ask me why)
started watching this movie the guard last nite didnt finish it so walkies and finish movie, cant pack much more till i get an ok an a house.
 
IXchellian-
Just so you are aware, I agree with what you said, just not how you said it.
I actually stand with you- but my post was meant, not only for you- but for everyone involved in the conversation (as I stated). I posted it here rather than in PM b/c everyone taking part in that conversation was getting over the line or walking the line with what was being said.
My brother is doing his second tour right now. What our soldiers go through touches VERY VERY close to home for me.
My brother is my best friend. Seeing people dismiss what they do pisses me off too but I know TDS is not the place to make people feel bad by calling them naive, or making them feel small for having an opinion.....like you said, it is a free country and people can think what they like- but TDS is one place on BL people should never feel bullied or belittled.
I'm sorry if my saying your name in the post made you feel bad, that wasn't my intention.
 
I know what causes the trouble.... I charge across lines when things need to be said or done, especially when nobody else will. My experience & mentality is just not compatible with the majority of BL..... and most especially TDS. I forget that it's not my job or part of my life, to still be operating on that level.

But this time, I entirely expected to get ridden hard and then kicked out the back-door, especially after rising up like that and not holding back.
It's not often that I've seen not one, but three serious mods <snip> someone, and warn them off in the space of a few hours, on the same thread..... and not have them end up busting out the ban-hammer shortly thereafter.

I certainly hope none of y'all were holding out on me, on account of yesterday's date and my status as TDS's token hardass war-scarred head-case.

Like everywhere else I've been, it feels like I'm just being politely tolerated & humored here; but with most having the hopes that I'll stfu and go away..... sort of like how people treat a petulant, unstable, and irrational street-person.
Yeah, I've been dealing with a short fuse ..... and its not getting any better. I don't see that as contributing much to anything, besides possibly a reputation for my being a pugnacious and unpleasant chud.

As BL is the extent of my socializing, I'd have to be content with being the disturbed ex-military guy in the dark corner who makes people uncomfortable by staring into space for hours over a plain V8, and who chainsmokes enough to use up everyone's carbon-credits within a square mile. Those who want to approach can do so at their own risk & discretion (fuck knows why).... and it'll never be very a pleasant experience.

I'm damned either way..... I can't live with the squares, nor can I live with the the groovy people.

Oh.... there should be a fuckin' great superhighway to hell by now, given all the good intention around here. All I know is that I've been cruising hell's frontage road for a while now, and I'm running on fumes.
When they finish it, feel free to visit me on the nth layer; I should be off near Exit 665-ish, sorta near the Waffle House with perpetually cold & coagulated grits...... but I hear they have decent coffee, so I got that going for me which is nice.

why would you watch a whole different movie after not finishing the previous one??
i figured i would ask "why question" in a different fashion...

A good question indeed but also one i can only answer with Why not? It just kinda happened:\
walking today took off shoes, got in the sand, made fists with toes in grass n shit, water fucking cold as.
got a visitor, bout all to tell.
 
One night short of a full moon here but you could have fooled me---huge, golden orb hanging low over the city. Went down to the beach to see the sparkles on the water, saw the blue light from the jetty lighthouse making its way through the waves and thought how strange and crazy life is---me coming here to BL to talk about losing my son and now all these other lives drawing me out of my own sorrow for these little respites where I feel someone else's pain instead.

My boy loved the ocean. Haven't paddled his ashes out yet, but will. Still, the ashes don't have to be there that's just symbolism for the living. The ocean is already holding him and always has. Felt so close to him tonight with the black waves and the big old moon and the smell of eucalyptus and kelp. No pain tonight, plenty of tears but closer to peace. In reality it's short for all of us, no?
 
Well Bleulighters.... Im off on internet holiday, just aint gonna be able to afford it this week:p
got a phone with net but it sucks to post with, I'l be lurkin on that till i get enough to get some more net credit:\
Probably a good thing in a way that i'm somewhat silenced online for a while anyways, I latley been not thinking things thru properly and its caused some grief....But thats life, will just get back up dust off and go again. Look foward to checkin in on whats crackin n will miss postin, But i'l be back... Gotta go stack that motherfuckin paper now:|
 
See ya in a week S.M.F.G :) I guess it's probably for the best we ALL take an internet break every once in a while. I'm just not really willing to do it yet ;)
 
Best song for day 108 without my beautiful boy:

Goatpath by Ferron

(tried to find a link but don't know htf to do that because my beautiful boy was my in-house computer help!)
 
Today didn't suck.
got a bit of exercise and it felt good.
pretty soon its hibernation time. got to stock up on fresh air.
 
^ I hear that. It went from +30 here on Sat to around +15 on Sun, and it's been hovering there since. Autumn hit in a day. Soon it'll be 'no exposed skin' time. Got to enjoy the awesome autumnal sun while it lasts.

Which, of course, is why I'm inside, posting on BL.
 
Ahhh... I've seen it in the sky the sun looks like fall is near and the end of this ridiculously hot summer will soon be to an end my heart always fill with joy when the sun changes. <3
