Shit, I can't get rid of 23 valentines by myself
PM & give me a link to someone who needs 'em.

Then below here, post a prediction of how long it takes me to unload all that little chalky candy.

7. "Cruise the boards". Ew. You make it sound like I'm picking up a floozy at a singles bar
If I enjoyed doing that I sure wouldn't be sitting on DU the day after Valentines Day

But you have me on ignore.

I need to shut down my PMs again anyway.

4. I gave you a "smile" heart, but only because Skinner didn't make a "shut up you tramp" heart
<== Just blink. The image burned on your retina will be the truth

13. Yeah, me too.
Ironically, my students consistently outscore district averages, even though I'm teaching non-honors classes at a "disadvantaged" school. Only thing I can figure is that my kids are so eager to get away from me that they study extra hard just to get out of the 10th grade.

18. None that I can tell. Whenever they start crying I tell them to shut the hell up.
See? Problem solved.

21. I'd like to say something before I log off...

..regarding your "tramp" comment to me tonight. It came at a very bad time. The only "incident" I ever remember having with you on DU, Bucky, is when you copied my pic from a pic thread and plastered it in a reply. Recently, though, I thought we'd resolved any differences. Well, I guess not. Honestly, the list of people who don't like me on DU is too long for me to keep track of any longer.

Still, though I'm sure you'll find this amusing too, your remark came at a very low time in my life. Very low. You don't know me... any more than I know you. You have no idea what I might be going through right now. And you'll never know how much that particular remark hurt. It wasn't funny to me. But I guess that doesn't matter as long as a person gets their laughs.

I just wanted to get that off my chest.... even though I'm sure it gave you some kind of sick rise to know how upset you made me tonight.

22. My bad
Edited on Sun Feb-15-09 08:46 PM by Bucky
I didn't even think we had any differences. I do apologize.

For what it's worth, until this last post, I thought you were playing with me the way I was playing with you--in a sort of dry "Dumb and Dumber" type of fake argument. I just read into your comments what my mood predisposed me to expect.

I certainly didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I assumed that me not knowing you from Eve pretty much negated any possibility of me sincerely calling anyone on line a tramp or any other serious insult. I was just being blind, I guess. Please feel free not to take anything I say seriously. I don't.

I hope you have a good week.

3. Cruise through GD for a bit, and you'll see tons of folks who could use a little love.
That's very sweet of you, too! :hi:

5. The whole point of this thread is that I don't HAVE to do the hard work of being nice
I'm a philanthropist, not a social worker

12. They probably need some hearts over in the DU Bereavement Group, or...
the DU Coping with Divorce or Separation Group

Here's one to you Bucky: :loveya:

17. Great advice. There's some hard stories in that forum
It's crap like I read there that makes me glad I'm so detached these days. I unloaded a lot of hearts there. Some people just need to be run thru a hug machine. People who fuck up other people's lives suck.

20. Yeah, it's rough and not easy reading...
I'm glad you found a way to use some hearts in a directed fashion and I'm sure you brightened some folks up.

You're a great DUer, Bucky! :loveya:

19. Find good DU'ers who don't have one, and give one to them.
