All I'll say is that I had a bad binge last night that ended in me throwing up and losing the rest of my dignity.

Thank you.

4. It appears to me that you have a lot of dignity remaining.
Anyone smart enough to be a Democrat and a member here has much more dignity than you could lose in a hundred bad nights.

37. Talk to your neighbors. Talk to the birds. Talk to the person behind the counter when
you're buying gas or a burger or groceries. Talk to the mailman. Talk to all of them: they'll talk back. They may not always be right but they'll tell you what they think. The birds will bitch after midnight that they're trying to sleep and you oughta turn your lights out. The guy in the convenience story will tell you how he never recovered from the hit and run. You'll hear if you listen. Talk

40. Dignity is overrated anyways.
I should know, I ditched it decades ago! :)

:hug:

And this reminds me of Red Dwarf. If you're not familiar with the show, it has a android named Kryten. In one episode they find out he's going to be terminated when his replacement arrives, so the Red Dwarf guys throw a party for him. This is what he says the next morning...

"Dehydration Level: 45%. Recall Of Previous Evening: 2%. Embarrassment Factor: 91%. Advised Repair Schedule: Reboot Startup disk, offline for 36 hours, and replace head." Boy, what an evening!
