not voting for trump and still being called a right wing nut.

[SpursforSix]

Specific would have been dead puppies in a trunk with their paws cut off before they died.

Well then what the . I can't think (or don't want to think) of anything sadder than dead puppies in a trunk with their paws cut off before they died. How ing far are you wanting to go with this thread. Because anything much more sad, I'm going to have to start drinking.

What about a group of kittens that were left on the street by an alcoholic dad. They escaped and made their way back to their cancer stricken owner (a young girl) but they got run over in front of her house. And she was dying and her last vision was seeing them get run over. And one of the kittens knew the cure for cancer. And it's last words were, "I got this".

Old man (Fred) is in his kids way so they ship him off to an old folks home to simply fade away. While there he starts to play an old beat up piano. After a year or so of playing every day for hours he is getting good, really good.

One of the other old timers there has a son in the recording business, unlike Freds kids this guys son comes to visit him once a week. While on this visit he finally hears Fred playing. He couldn't believe what he was listening to, what a talent.

After a couple more trips he talks Fred into signing a recording contract. After Freds debut album...."Shades of Grey" the $$$$$$ starts rolling in, now Fred will be leaving Sunnyview to live in an apartment in New York. He has a mega $$$$$$ deal recording contract.

His kids all of a sudden want to get back in his life, funny how that works and very sad.

So you were sad before your birth?

Ok, let me rephrase it: the current thought of not being able to experience anything, for eternity, after death.

rich kids grew up rich because of their snobby dads/parents, and I didn't.

I have posted some ed up in the past that may have been offensive to certain posters on this board.....

I would like it to be known that I have a drinking problem. Some already know this.

I sometimes drink a 12-pack or more a day by myself.

During those periods I have posted replies and topics that the next day I regret... sometimes avoiding certain locations like "The Club" because I have embarrased myself speaking out of tounge.

Ohh, I remember what I post, dont get me wrong... but I think on it the next day and feel really embarassed about it sometimes.

I have this same problem in real life... I speak my mind when I shouldnt be so forth-coming. I piss people off even when I dont intend to. It's in my nature to be fourthcoming.

I wont go into detail but I will admit I have a problem with alchohol, I cant remember the last day I went without a drink, and thats been over 10 years. It scares me, but I am not ready yet to face it.

I plead you to keep in mind this though... I Do NOT smoke cigarettes at work... It makes me sick having a cigarette until after 5pm and without a beer in hand... and as far as any alchohol is concerned, I dont have drinks during lunch unless my boss himself is buying them....

Its hard to explain... I can control myself during the work day, no problems, no cravings at all during the day.. either cigarettes or Beer.... but once work is done, all bets are off.

Im not some plastered that caries a flask to work... I can do without... But I know I also have a problem with it.... The main problem with that is that I dont feel like Im ready to take the addiction on.

Im going to be 31 come March 10th.

I have sky dived, been mountain biking all over Texas and other states, Been Kayaking for the past 2 years on some of the best waters Texas has to offer, raced at Alamo Dragway and the new San Antonio Raceway... But here I am, still ting my life away on alchohol....

Damn, I really need to take a hold of my life.

So before your birth was just a blip in time? Time did not exist for you before, and it won't after. So what's the difference?

Why are you trying so hard to be dense? Didn't you read the "current thought" part? Are you kind of slow or something?

So you noticed that also? Yep, the guy doesn't get it most the time.
