We were chatting over MSN, and I suggested that we have a huge arugument on here, staged and everything. But now, I think it may have gone overboard [Somethings that Ive said, aswell as some from Furball], so this is a good time to REVEAL THE HOAX:p :p

Hope you all enjoyed the show;)

you do realise you just killed furball right? ok that's it *jumps into ring,grabs vamp's head and slams it on floor of ring until he is dead* ok now i wonder if Stone COld found Hate_Breeder yet

furballothrills 01-22-2005 07:41 PM

hey, decapitated and mutilated furballs can still work, however dead penguins wouldn't work too well.

Just wondering.


Btw, I go into denial usually. Pretend it doesnt bother me. Hey, it works, I always stay friends with my ex's, so I guess it works...

My biggest coping methods for troubling times is taking it head on, soaking in the misery, and just flat-out accepting it and understanding it. I have had way too many of these incidents within the last few years, the hardest being a divorce from my partner of 10 years.

The marriage itself only lasted about 2 years...but it was a tough time getting over that because we really didn't have too many problems compared to most married couples. But, everything happens for a reason and I just literally listened to every possible sad song, read old letters from her, looked at pictures...cried when I needed to, and then BAM...it is now all in the past.

So, anyway...I take the same approach with everything bad in my life. I take it on...and knock it the fuck out! I also have a thing I do called "Black Tuesday," partly because I hate Tuesdays. But, I sit in complete darkness in my room, turn on some mood-heavy music, and I draw whatever comes to mind...not being able to see exactly what I'm drawing until I have finished "coping" and turn the lights back on.

This accomplishes some much needed time alone, and some insight into my feelings. Then I assess my mood and try to change things in my life that may be causing some problems.

Damn...I didn't realize I was rambling so much, sorry.

But, good topic.

I_Still_Know! 01-22-2005 09:18 PM

Not rambling. Very good way to deal with things.

I should take a leaf out of your book...

I am gonna try!! Tackle things head on instead of hiding from the world until it goes away.

And what about your little Secret Window obsession? Ive always hated that movie, Im glad you're dumb as a brick so you couldnt tell that I was only pretending to enjoy it when you forced me to sit through it. Dont believe me? Ask Jay, he was there the 1st time I saw it. I hated it.

Happy now, Princess?

LMFAO!!!!!! :D

2) You had a choice whether you wanted to go or not, I didn't force you to do anything. Oh and don't bother trying to act as though you hated it. If you did, would there be so many insiders? I know when you're laughing at something funny and when you're laughing at something when you hate it.
3) Who the fuck do you think you're calling Princess? If I were you, I'd at least go for Bitch.

Good enough for your standards, Oh Mighty One?

still LMFAO!!!!!!! :D you young'ins are quite amusing at times. You would think you two have been married for 30 years!!!!!! :D

Trust me...he WILL get over it.

No ONE person is that god damn important to waste your time/emotions on. (no offense).

'zactly.

And when you're together...you have to act like they are the most important thing. (well, I had to, at least).

Yes we were, and if I knew how much hassle it was to get out of a marriage would have never done it in the first place :rolleyes:

Agreed.

Well, I don't have any kids...but, I can see how the focus would shift.

But, it is truly all about being with the right person. Then nothing is forced.

But be glad that you did. There are so many people out there who remain unhappy just for the sake of not rocking the boat, or fear of uncertainty.

(or for the sake of kids, if they are involved).

Well I have never been dumped.. Only ever been with Cheeba.

I have only ever lost one person in my life and that was my dad, who died about 11 years ago. But I never really went through a sad stage with that, I just let it go. My brother helped me with it also, he took me ski-ing shortly after the funeral and because I was pretty young it didn't affect me that badly.

As for coping with things. Well music helps me heaps. I dont care what kinda music just anything. I also have a diary which I can let everything out. Just being on my own helps to. Having heaps of animals is a great thing too. They seem to know that something is up and wanna help ( I know that sounds stupid but I love my animals greatly).
