Anyone here have a magic 8 ball?
Question is " Am I going to get out of this?"

9. I hope you do.
When I think about stuff like that, :shrug: I think of it more in the idea of where I should be and not getting out.

Getting out sort of implies anywhere, but that misses the concept that only acceptable situations are acceptable.

So weather out or in, :shrug: doesn't matter, but I will get the 'correction' to move forward, and the crap that happens often will be replaced. I have a pretty good idea what is going on and have some good communication.

And patterns show alot of stuff, so it is just a matter of changing things till they are acceptable.


The easiest thing to do is know those that mess with you, or think they control you are actually under your control, but by choice you don't control them, although you don't let them bother you either. They really have no control or power, they just want you to think that.

10. I used to use this site for fun -
Edited on Tue Aug-24-10 12:11 AM by haele
http://www.facade.com/
- Various free quickie divination methods, from bio-rhythms and numerology to tarot, iching and rune readings. They also pushed floaty pens, back in the day...

I ended up there back around 2000 when looking for inspirations for tarot deck designs.
As I once told someone who was bugging me to teach them some of my more pagan family traditions as if they were weird and mystical magik - symbolism is as symbolism does. One year I batted about a .420 at that site. :) Woo!

11. "FUCK no!" - I still have mine from when I was a kid (somewhere) and the girls have a newer one.
They still make them and it is one of the few toys that hasn't changed.

14. no eight ball,
but I would gladly lend you my "Affirmation Ball" that my best friend gave me... it displays phrases like "relax, those dishes can wait" and "I bet you're proud of that" and my favorite:

"Have you lost weight?"

:loveya:

26. How smart are you?
In Texas, can you find your rear end with both hands, and WITHOUT a Ouija board??

Then you are smart.


:rofl:

That was one of mom's favorite phrases: "So stupid he couldn't find his ass with both hands and a Ouija board". Mom was a good ole gal born in Carrizo Springs, TX, parents imported from Mississippi.


:rofl:

30. I always use the "can't find your ass with both hands", but never
heard of the Ouija board included there. Now THAT is really stupid. You mother was a wise woman (or maybe just a wise ass, but who am I to say). Funny phrase.

:rofl:

31. I have not used the board in about 20 years, and only for
entertainment. But I do still have it. I always was a little freaked about it, because we often would have results and both people involved swearing that they did not move it---and with several different people. All I know is that I did not try to move it. I remember the last time I used it was when I asked it how old I would be when I died, and it started moving really slow in a circle, then faster and faster and faster, then went right off the board in a flash. Creeped me out too much. Now how I can be creeped out more than if I would have gotten an answer to that question, I don't know.

24. LOL That they are, but I really
like it better than the magic 8 ball. It even holds up to being dropped in a glass of juice and it still works.

23. Funny, post, how many people in the world you going to try and get
to scream no to stop me.

You already have an entire political party in the US doing it, how many more you going to try and add to that to stop me from collecting what you owe to me.

You owe society justice and compassion.

You owe me financing for beer and travel and good times without your crap.


Why not try to get a few more million people to shout no, is that all you got :rofl:


(not to poster, nor about politics.)

25. Okay, sure.
Magic Meatball doesn't say that much, it's just a McDonald's happy meal toy.
