What I have learned as I mature http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

I've learned that you cannot make
someone love you. All you can do is
stalk them and hope they panic and
give in.

I've learned that no matter how much I
care, some people are just assholes.

I've learned that it takes years
to build up trust, and it only takes
suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

I've learned that you can get by
on charm for about fifteen minutes.
After that, you'd better have a big
weenie or huge boobs.

I've learned that you shouldn't
compare yourself to others - they are
more screwed up than you think.

I've learned that you can keep puking
long after you think you're finished.

I've learned that we are responsible
for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

I've learned that regardless of
how hot and steamy a relationship is
at first, the passion fades, and there
had better be a lot of money to take its
place.

I've learned that no matter how you
try to protect your children, they will
eventually get arrested and end up in the
local paper.

I've learned that the people you care most
about in life are taken from you too soon
and all the less important ones just never go
away.

I've learned to say "F--- 'em if
they can't take a joke" in 6 languages.

A lot of what he wrote, in my opinion is true. I just won't tell which parts! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

then this kind trust is nothing but an illusion

I trust my friends, and nothing can shake my faith. think with your brain, not with your emotions. by using your brain, you delay the impct of fear and doubt and anxiety. think, not react!

skywalker 09-05-2001 03:47 PM

Just because Mouse has learned these things from life doesn'y mean they are all true for you! These are just his lessons, agree or not, they are his (or hers) alone! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Are you serious 250?

sorry, I got too frustrated, because I don't want those to be true. i dont want those "passion fades" crap

skywalker 09-05-2001 03:54 PM

All I was saying is learn your own lessons and hopefully they will be more upbeat than those of Mouse. I hate to say that a lot of them, I've learned myself...I try not to dwell on them though. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

Woah - hold up there guys!!!! This thread is one in a long tradition of lists of witty/cynical/vaguely amusing stuff that circulates around cyberspace. It just so happened that it landed on my pc today and I thought I'd share it with the rest of you.

Do not get bent out of shape by it!!!!!

Oh, and to you 250, it does my old heart good to see someone who is so vehement in the defence of his beliefs - more power to ya http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

this might clear things up:

I am in love with someone

nothing I said is against you.


"I am attacking the idea"

alright, http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
that is very nice of you

Ladyzekke 09-05-2001 09:28 PM

TwoFiffee - You really see the humor right? I truly mean no offense, I have a HUGE serious side too ya know, just that I kinda know Mouse, and he likes to joke about is all.

When you said "that is very nice of you", you weren't being sarcastic were you? I just don't want to seem flippant or insensitive, just trying to keep things light and humorous, but if this type of subject means a lot to you in a serious manner, I want you to tell me. As I can jibe with that too 250.

thank you, and thank you very much, Ladyzekke
nope, I am not being sarcastic. I am just kinda curious, how can you always remain so calm and sensitive?

as you might know, I am in love. so I am very very sensitive to this kinda thing, because I so not want to screw things up.

and I have no (nope, never once) ill feelings toward you, how can anyone do?! once again, thanks

Ladyzekke 09-05-2001 10:07 PM

250 - http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

I know you are in love TwoFiffee, and I just have a feelin that you won't be screwing anything up, you are too observant, and sensitive, and all around a great guy, http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Guess I just have a certain sense of humor, Mouse makes me laugh. So did Stealthy. Heck, so does Jerome. Mmmm, maybe I am partial to people who live in Scotland LOL! Funny... :-

I have to say though, that the very first post I saw from you months ago, you addressed me while I was in a conversation in the infamous Moon's Hope Inn. Your post was hilarious! All that off-kilter spelling LOL! Then I accidentally called you "205" (was truly a typo LOL), and your response to THAT was even funnier! Don't take away Messed up Angry Fire Man please! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif hehe! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I would say something here about someone spamming, but I'm nobody to talk. LOL. I too fell victim to attaining the rank of Drizzt. Then, because I was able to post 150 messages in a 6 hour timeframe, decided to take on our glorious CloudQueen. LOL. For a few short minutes (cause she was MP'ing) I passed her. This was still when Memnoch was ahead of her too. LOL. After I passed her, I realized that spamming for numbers really wasn't so fun. I look for threads that have meaning to them or are really fun/ny now. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
