The Vent and Rant Thread - Page 724

I picked up some pork ribs for grilling --- that's dinner here in a few hours...

recluse · 07-11-2010, 02:24 PM

This is not a vent. This is not a rant.

This is goodbye.

Here are your chains and choke collar.

I'ed rather spend my days alone and free than as the caged monster who gets a pat on the head when he plays the clown.

Tell Kindlekitten I'm going to find that time and place where I belong.

Let MobileRead's cyberbullies know the Forum is theirs. Let them find another whipping boy.

*hugggg*

Recluse, if you don't come back - thank you for the time you spent here. I'll miss you.

What happened to the green guy? What set him off? I didn't see any cyberbullying in this thread!

Not a clue, Pooh, I was wondering the same thing.

I'm really sorry, recluse, but the following sign I found in the world outside of MobileRead clearly states, that you are not allowed to leave the forums. Here, look for yourself:

Roadsign, "Walking away from MR prohibited"

So much for the fun part. Would you like to share the pain that made you write the above goodbye message?

dreams · 07-11-2010, 06:14 PM

recluse, don't go. What happened? What did I miss? cyberbullies?

Joebill · 07-11-2010, 06:18 PM

I wear different shirts to work. I have even been known to wear a Hawian-style bright short on a 'non-casual' work day. It upsets the Puritans at work. Which I enjoy doing. They get all bothered about tattoos as well.

I then get to point out their Puritan Attitudes are fake.

The Puritans didn't wear black/white clothing, and never wore silver buckles on their hats. That is due to Americans in the late 1800s trying to 'pretty up' the colonial past.

Son!
You can't leave now! I did not teach you...how to...

Joebill · 07-11-2010, 06:20 PM

Heyo Recluse,
it isn't time to go,
please come back,
we will miss you !

Sorry, my poem muse seems to have left me for the time being, but I think I got the point in there.

Part of me wants to say don't go.

Part of me wants to say if going will make you happiest, then... goodbye & you'll be missed. It was nice knowing you whilst you were here.

I just read a great joke, but I fail the language skills to translate it in english, without loosing the "spirit" of it. A native English speaker willing to help? Btw, if you don't like jokes from the tom and jerry type (where the cat is the loser), you might want to skip helping me

Going to bed now, good night

LCF · 07-11-2010, 08:51 PM

I found it!!! see the joke thread if interested

Minor rant. Farking mosquitos. Both the yeti and I got bitten whilst attacking the garden. His were maybe 10mm across on the largest, and got a bit swollen. The smallest I got is about 35mm across - the largest is about 50mm or so. His have basically gone, mine are still very visible, itchy, but not quite as rock hard or glowing red as they were.

On the plus side, we seem to have a lot of house martins in the area, so maybe they will do something to reduce the population.

Mosquite repellent! Deet! We don't go out without it here because of mosquito-born infections!
