Self-righteous, condescending c-words!

[thispego]

It's REALLY simple.

Don't post on Facebook.

Problem solved.

goddamnit cc when you're right, you're right.

anybody who uses facebook and posts their thoughts for all to see deserve whatever they get. and frankly, I dont really want to hear anything else about facebook, myspace, or twitter on this forum anymore.

I understand your frustration. And you're right...I deserve whatever I get on a public forum like that. Same as on ST.

I guess my real problem is just this holier-than-thou at ude that's still prevalent amongst seemingly everyone I come into contact w/. To this day, it infuriates me. Well, that, and when I first posted this thread, the parking situation.

But again, you're right. If I want to remain a part of that kind of...whatEVER...I set myself up for public/private ridicule.

most people are dumb. if you know you are above them then why do you let them bring you down?

Insecurities? A guilty conscience? Who tha knows?

People keep telling me to "sweep the leg". Maybe there is something to that?

Personally, I don't care what she would have said to me. I would have just flashed her a goofy smile and start an explanation on why I was so angry using the same kind of condescending tone.

Quite often you will find that people who have religion a huge part of their lives will often act that way. They are thinking they are using a kind tone, but they really are just using a tone that you would use for little kids. It really irritates me.

Sounds to me like you have a guilty conscience. You're trying to run away from God and the people at the church - but then you let them be your facebook friends and that means they can see whatever you post. I have a nephew who is 26 and he's one of my facebook friends, but he's hidden because I don't want to read about his drunken escapades or read the profanity-laced comments of him and his friends.

Facebook is a public forum - so don't put anything on there that you don't want ALL of your "friends" to see. And maybe that woman didn't use the right tone - but I think she cares about you and is disappointed in your life choices.

One last thing - you can't run away from God.

usain bolt would beg to differ.

facebook can also tend to carry a more casual internet user that has not yet been desensitized as most of us have...

[BacktoBasics]

Every time I read like that I laugh.

[Bukefal]

Facebook sucks

[ploto]

So the worship leader who bought a cell phone for the 11 year old daughter, who is discussing with her what kind of car she wants, and who is considering having her get a Facebook page is judging how you live your life?

Desensitived......great description...

That's what is so very cool about Spurstalk...you can say exactly exactly what you want and not have to worry about some mod with a corncob up their ass slapping you.

I also post at a bow hunting website that is so over-moderated it's ing laughable...even on my absolute best behavior I get slapped down frequently hehehe...those guys wrote the book on sanctimonious assholes.

"Praying for you and have been for some time. In fact, praying for all the prodigals to come home."

Reading that reminds me of how the crazy Islamo-fascists use the word "infidel." Very religious folks are the ones that draw the divided line and put themselves on the good side to make themselves look like beacons of hope and examples of "good" living...they just want to make the rest of us feel guilty, don't fall for it.

[Dro210]

I feel you man... I've had people like that, old church people, conservative family members, co-workers, people who wouldn't "approve" of what I'm about... I've just denied their requests cause I knew this is what would happen.

Also gotta hate the friends that have gotten themselves into this situation, and then try and act offended when you say somethin controversial on their status or something. Puttin on for those other people. off.

[pawe]

I have some of my church leaders added in my facebook account and they wont be happy with the " s", " s" and "re s" status updates when Matt Bonner starts to up his defensive assignments. Point is: forget about them. They have no idea on what kind of sick perverted things their kids see on the internet anyway.

And don't tow the car parked in your space, they will key the out of your ride.

I had responded to my coworkers reprimand with this:

Chris Chaffin
What. tha. ? Eating hearts is pedophilia? Whoever wrote you that is completely mental. Did he think that "eating hearts" was a metaphor for "touching penises"?

To which he replied:

Joe
Maybe she confused pedophilia with cannibalism. Both are mentally disturbing. It is wise to be careful what you say about kids. Thank you.

I suppose it was an honest mistake. I mean, who DOESN'T confuse the two on a daily basis?

If it IS, in fact, a guilty conscience, it's doing nothing to rally me in. I've been dealing w/ condemnation and the fear of DAMNation since the age of about 5 or 6. At this point, I resent everyone for who played a role in instilling that in me...even my father to some extent, whom I love dearly, and has since passed away.

That kind've "reaching out" is just about as effective as the loon shouting on the corner of the grassy knoll at school, yelling at students walking to their next class that " IS REAL!"...only w/ the volume turned down.
