It is everything built to borrow
made of a moment or two of sorrow
with a roof pitched of tar and nicotine
and everything good that is in between
that has taken three hundred days
sometimes filtered through a painted haze
while holding breath without suffocation
there is love and hate, anguish and elation

«Oldest ‹Older 3201 – 3400 of 4101 Newer› Newest»No, Elena, did he really? He looked like a "young'un", too. Tryin' to get him some hot mama? Nah, I have no beef with the valet service. They don't even work for the hotel; they're contracted.
My concern is with this girl, who, while L and I were discussing things with her supervisor, stood about 5 feet away, maybe, and stared sullenly at the counter in front of her.
Apparently she didn't enjoy having her "guest services" personality trashed in front of her coworkers. Well, girlie, you shoulda thought about that before you raised your voice to me.
Ergo, I thought it was fair too. Makes me not want to go back to another Hilton anywhere. But we shall see.
"Nine ran" reminds me of Eddie Izzard's routine about British horse racing. "They always tell you how many ran, like anyone cares. 'Blah de Blah wins, X places. Five ran.'"
oh thanks elena!
she is looking forward to it arriving
and seeing her name on it will be extra special!
goodnight carrie sweet dreams
good night carrie. i hope tomorrow is better for you. :)
Night Carrie. Hope to talk with you soon.
J - I sent you an e-mail
Goodnight Carrie, sleep well.
Goodnight carrie sweet dreams.
Where did everyone go?
I'm lonely, people. Talk to me.
wow we all said goodnight in a row
i was writing you an email, you demanding person, you. :)
I'm here elena!!!!
so you're feeling better?
I'm not demanding, I'm needy. Big difference.
Hello again Ergo
I'm feeling okay. Not good, not bad. I am however eyeing the cold medicine again. I don't want to take it but I do want to breathe.
maybe not take quite so much?
don't want you seeing objects moving about again
well, needy girl, you have an email in your inbox now. :)
I'm off for the night. Goodnight everyone. I hope you guys have a great weekend.
Elena, I hope you feel better.
Pickles: Well, here's a hug. Just cause. Have a awesome weekend you sneaky possom ^_^
Miranth: yep, guess what? I miss you. What's this I hear about you possibly moving? *hugs*
Sugarplum: Be careful and stay safe in case you get hit by Ike. It's supposed to be headed mainly towards Texas so I think you should be safe. At least I hope so *smothers with sloppy kisses and hugs*
Sweet dreams!
Amy: Good luck in case you look for a second job.
Night everyone!
Thank you TJ
I shall reply tomorrow. I have some definite ideas.
Elena, I have finally replied. :D
And no, you're not demanding. That's Flighty's job! heeheehee Just kidding. She's a great girl. The picture is too cute.
TJ, did you find the Hamilton book online?
Goodnight BC, have most pleasant dreams. Kiss that bunny for me!
Night BC
Take care
goodnight Bc sweet dreams
you may be better off without them, carrie. especially if that is the so called friend resorting to name calling. some people just don't know how to handle social situations. they don't realize that things should be discussed in a mature manner. how can you be expected to help fix the problem if the other party won't tell you what the problem is. you can't. don't beat yourself up. it sounds more like their problem than yours.
good night bc! sweet dreams. :)
elena, looking forward to it.
j., i think i'm gong to see if i can get it at the library. plus, right now i'm powering through a huge fantasy series, so i've got some time before i would be starting her books.
oh geez. i hate typos. going was the word i thought i was typing, treacherous little fingers.
"Powering through", wow, sounds official and all boardroom-y. Must be good, then?
`The Twist' is top song of Billboard Hot 100 era
09/11/2008 5:00 AM, AP
Nekesa Mumbi Moody
How's this for a twist: Of all the No. 1 songs in the 50 years of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, Chubby Checker's "The Twist" ranks as the most popular single.
Elvis and the Beatles didn't even make the top five.
Checker's ranking may come as a surprise to some, but not to the classic rocker.
"I'm glad they've finally recognized it," said Checker of his early 1960s hit.
come on baby just like this round and round and up and down
He compared "The Twist" — named by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum as one of the 500 songs that shaped rock 'n' roll — to the creation of the telephone as a groundbreaking moment because he said it was the first time people were dancing "apart to the beat."
lol, j.!
yep, it's a great series, crown of stars by kate elliot. (first book in the series is king's dragon) powering through because each volume is about 700-800 pages, and i just can't stop reading. :)
zoom!
anon very true
oh cool for Cubby checker!
it is a great song, fun, simple, catchy and longlived, and it was a turning point and spawned so many "dance" songs after it
hey anon what was the top 10?
do you have a list? if it's not too much trouble?
You know, I never knew why he was called "Chubby". He wasn't that chubby, I don't think. But YOUNG! Wow, he looked to be about 18 or so.
The Twist: the one dance I can do. :D
oooh blog is gone quiet again
i was twisting in the corner.

I'd agree with some, not others, but that's the whole beauty of music isn't is, different things appeal to different people
*helps J to chair*
Have to agree with most of those choices, Anon. I'm not too big on Springsteen; some of his songs are really good, but others not so much. (Besides, the speech pathologist in me can't get past that underbite!) And Michael Jackson? Never did care for him much, either.
Where, I ask you, are the Sex Pistols? The Clash? ANY punk band? Mmm-hmm, I smell discrimination!
Oh wait, no, that's beer. :D

The Billboard Hot 100 chart measures airplay and sales information (and more recently digital downloads) in determining the nation's most popular songs. To determine the most popular song of the Hot 100 era, Billboard used a formula to determine the top song — not always relying on weeks at No. 1 since the data was reported differently in its early days.

So did you make those three random people happy today? I hope so. Doing such a simple thing that can make someone’s day is pretty cool. I spent my day sleeping and reflecting. Heck, maybe I was even reflecting while I slept. I’m not sure. At least I didn’t have any dreams about the Bates Motel so that was pretty good.
Mayo, do you remember what you were doing when the Twin Towers were hit? I bet you do. I don’t think there is anyone who was over that age of five that day that doesn’t. It’s a day that will always be remembered. It changed all our lives. Our innocence was lost that day. My children watched at school on TV’s brought into their classrooms. It was so hard to try to explain to them what had happened. Seriously, ever try to explain to a child something like that? I mean their questions were so simple, “Why would anyone want to hurt those people like that?” Why indeed? Yes, there are so many ways to answer the question but none that really make sense to a child. Things to them are black and white. There is good and evil. Right and wrong. I think they are a lot smarter than adults at times.
Okay I don’t want to talk about that anymore tonight. I’m tired and still sick. That cold medicine is calling to me. Tomorrow I’ve got an easy one for you. Read, “To Kill a Mockingbird.” If you’ve read it, read it again. What a wonderful book. Harper Lee is one of the most talented writers of our time. She can mold her words to make you feel. The message behind her words is one that should not be ignored. See, I’m giving you an easy one and no I don’t think you can read it in one day. I mean I’m sure you do have other stuff to do. So take the weekend and read it. I’ll give you something new to do for Monday. Driving you crazy, aren’t I? I can be an annoying woman, Mayo. But then I’m pretty sure you realized that months ago.
Night Mayo
Elena (with good intentions always)
Mmm. Only ones I'd vote for are numbers 2 and 8. Come on, Mariah Carey? Olivia Newton-John? DEBBIE BOONE? Oh me. Well, it's like Ergo said, there's all kinds of music for all kinds of people. Music is a form of expression; it shouldn't fit a mold.
Personally, I think "unning" suits the subject matter to a T.
goodnigth elena sweet dreams
thanks anon :]
*drags legwarmers off Tj*
*hides leotard*
Oh man, look at the time! Elena, you prompted me that it's time to hit the hay. Goodnight to you, and to you too TJ and Ergo and Billboard Anon! A little bit of fun for the wee hours.
I'll see you guys tomorrow some time. Take care, enjoy your Fridays!
love, faith, hope, Peace On Earth, Good Will Towards Men
*whew*
thank you so much, ergo. that was a close call.
good night j., good night elena. sweet dreams you guys! :)

lewis you are very cheeky :)
those little internet kisses are so cute. :)
Mayo, SS, and BlogBelieve--
As I write this, we're on the far side of the 'anniversary' of one of the most tragic events in the history of Man. 9-11 made us all realize that, just because we live in "the land of the free and the home of the brave", that doesn't give us the grace to believe we're untouchable. Our borders can be, and have been, breached. We're a target for any group with the organization, the firepower, and the hatred to take us by surprise. 9-11 told us, Hey, we're not invincible.
The saddest part of that day for me was knowing how much unnecessary death and destruction took place in the span of a few minutes. I wondered how the passengers on those planes felt when they realized their lives were almost over. I wondered if I would have been as brave as those people in the Twin Towers were, jumping to certain death or waiting for the fires to claim them. How many men/husbands/fathers/sons/brothers/uncles/friends had perished, knowing they weren't getting out alive. How many women/wives/mothers/daughters/sisters/aunts/friends left this world afraid, not yet ready for the next one.
How many families waited for word from their loved ones, for hours, days, weeks, months...then stopped hoping altogether because to continue hoping was futile, painful, a denial of the horrendous reality.
My sympathies lie not with our government, but with the real heroes: the ones who gave their lives--unwillingly--because of hatred, envy, control.
Makes me look at this blog and wonder how some can be so wicked and cruel to others when things like 9-11 happen. Our generation's equivalent of Pearl Harbor should teach us lessons, not create more cruelty.
Goodnight, and God bless.
As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin for light in the darkness of insanity.
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?
And each time I feel like this inside,
Theres one thing I wanna know:
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding?
And as I walked on
Through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.
cause each time I feel it slippin away, just makes me wanna cry.
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding?
So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.
cause each time I feel it slippin away, just makes me wanna cry.
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
Whats so funny bout peace love & understanding?
Peace, Love, and Understanding

goodnigth J sweet dreams
love to L too
TJ the "ON-J effect" is a well known condition, the potential sufferer must be helped immediately or they may progress from sweat band, leotard and leg warmers to skin tight black leather pants, top and foofy blonde hair witha penchant for fairgrounds,
i wouldn't want you to suffer that
i had no idea i was in such danger, ergo. to think how close i came to utter ruin...
*shudders*
*weeps a little*
*hugs ergo in profound gratitude*
oh gosh! the mantel clock just rang...i had no idea it was this late. i'm gonna be dead in the morning. *groan*
i'd better say good night and skedaddle!
ergo, don't know if i'll see you tomorrow night -- it's my little sister's wedding anniversary and so we're all going out to dinner. i have no idea when i'll be back and on the blog.
so good night to you tonight and maybe tomorrow night too!
and good night to all the lurking anons. :)
sweet dreams all!
Tj I'm glad to help
It's just part of the job of...

that's fine TJ you have a lovely time, wish your sis a happy anniversary, enjoy the dinner!
my friends wife's memorial service is tomorrow at 11 am (they are having a private cremation after), I'll be going down to that, it'll be really sad
makes you realise how fortunate you are to have every day
'Our generation's equivalent of Pearl Harbor should teach us lessons, not create more cruelty.'
Tell that to the US Government and the 60 million people who voted Bush in for a second term.
oh meant top add goodnight Tj and sweet dreams
anon it sure seems that way, but I think that J meant, in a small way, we should try and heed those lessons ourselves.
We can't control governments nearly as easily as we can control our own actions and attitudes
mayo,
for some reason tonight i have this feeling that takes me back to my college days, and college all-nighters.
it's not the "oh-crap-i-have-to-write-a-paper-on-this-book-that-i-didn't-read" feeling, where you try to decide if you can scan the book or if you should just spin some b.s. from your imagination and the blurb on the back cover (i always went most successfully with the latter option).
it's more like that staying-up-late-because-you-were-on-the-phone-with-friends-who-only-live-across-campus feeling, or that reading-the-book-for-oneself feeling. i can almost pretend that if i leave this room and go down the hall, i'll come to the tatty lounge where people are still studying and everything smells like microwave popcorn.
it's not the bar-crawl feeling...that was weekends, and anyway, by the time i got to college, i had done most of my partying. it's definitely a staying-up-because-you-can feeling, when the world is quiet.
well, what the hell am i saying anyway...what a ramble this is and no point to it whatsoever. i stay up late all the time, later than i like, so why this nostalgia has come over me tonight, i don't know. (and why i've written a long paean to college all-nighters i'm not sure i want to know!)
i hope it's not a side effect of the olivia newton-john earworm, because that song was old by the time i was pulling my all-nighters and eating cold pizza out of the box on the floor for breakfast...
i'm not even describing it well...but it's a good feeling, and maybe the companionship here tonight brought that warm feeling up from the depths.
in any case, i go to bed with a smile, and a certain freshness of attitude, as if tomorrow can be anything.
good night, mayo. sweet dreams, and warm memories.
♥
Will do, anon. When you tell the thousands of 9/11 victims and their families why the Clinton administration did nothing about Bin Laden and the terrorists after the first attack on The Twin Towers and all the threats that followed.
Wait, that's right. He did do something. He sent a bomb costing millions of dollars to blow up a tent and a camel in the desert. That worked well. Allowed the Bin Laden network to grow, spread their hate and raise more money to plan and execute the 9/11 and other attacks.
Also explain why the US military was muzzled and castrated by the Clinton administration. Why the benefits of veterans were cut so drastically and the veterans hospitals allowed to deteriorate into facilities that make crack houses look good?
Then, go to one of those VA hospitals and scream at the veterans for voting for Bush.
If the problem had been dealt with properly during the Clinton years 9/11 and the following war on terrorism and in Iraq would probably never have happened.
Think what you will of Bush and his policies. He did do a hell of job handling 9/11.
There are 2 sides to every coin, 4:10.
Hi!
Anons - For the record, I blame Bush (though he wasn't the only one responsible, obviously).
Goodnight/day everyone!
elena - I am glad to read that you're feeling a bit better. I hope the trend continues. :)
Do we know how cupcake's grandfather is doing? Good luck and *hugs* if you read this cuppie!
Naughty MissT :) and BC - I am not sure I am moving. I have to coordinate things with my best friend, and she may have a job offer coming up here, but its iffy. I don't want to move so far alone, as I don't know anyone at my destination.
Also, my niece still has an infection, but not a serious one. The problem is that my other niece is cruel to her and they would be spending a lot of time alone. I worry about that situation. Their father thinks its funny. Go figure.
Wendy - See above and I shall call you!
Mayo - Good luck (though I may need to borrow some) and thanks for the space!
Take care, everyone!
:)
PS - and *hugs* BC! I miss you :)
*comes in singing*
“The purpose of a man is to love a woman
and the purpose of a woman is to love a man
So come on baby let’s start today
Come on baby let’s play
The game of LOVE!”
^It’s Chubby Checker’s fault^
The Twist led me to that one!
:P
Good *insert time of day here* Mayo, SS, Miranth, Ergo, BC/Sweetcheeks, J, Elena, TJ; the probably soon to arrive FASC, Possum, Sdock and hopefully Lewis; various anons, watchers and lurkers; all singles and those coupled in the land o’blogbelieve (see below).
How are you all today? Did you all have sweet dreams last night? I hope so!
Did all you singles out there hear the news? The #1 city, in America, for singles is now Atlanta! San Francisco is 2nd, followed by Dallas-Fort Worth and Minneapolis-St. Paul (tied for the No. 3 spot) and Washington, D.C.
I wonder why New Orleans is not on that list? Hmm...
Well, it matters not! T’is the funest city in all of the United States of America. Where else are bars and clubs open 24 hours a day/7 days a week, I ask? Where can you walk out of a dark club into direct morning sunlight and go O_O “Oh no! Sunlight” and then ask yourself “What happened to the night”? Where else can you carry your alcoholic beverage out into the streets (in plastic 'to go' cups, of course)? Where else can you dance till dawn in those abovementioned streets with that aforementioned plastic 'to go' cup in hand? Nowhere else in this country (I answer myself)!
:P
*apologies for that ramble*
*still trying to recover from enhaling all those gas fumes*
It could take awhile to recover. I did enhale a weeks worth!
Miranth: I’m sorry to hear your niece still has an infection. Please give her a big hug for me. I’m looking forward to chatting with you again and catching up on what’s been going on in your life! I’ve missed you!!!
Mya: Tonight! You know me. Always late! ;)
Lucy: Thanks for watching my videos!! I did get some Ike footage. We had the most gorgeous moon last night. I’m calling it “The Hurricane Ike Moon”. I will let ya’ll know when I’ve uploaded those videos!
Ergo: How’s your friend doing? :(
*smooooooooch* to cheer you up a bit
Amy!!!!! That is all! ;)
For pondering consideration today:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alabaster Boxes
Author Unknown
Do not keep the alabaster boxes of your love and tenderness sealed up, until your friends are dead. Fill their lives with sweetness. Speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear them and while their hearts can be thrilled and made happier by them. The kind things you mean to say when they are gone, say those words before they go. The flowers you mean to send-use to brighten and sweeten their homes before they leave them. If my friends have alabaster boxes laid away, full of fragrant perfumes of sympathy and affection I would rather they would bring them out in my weary and troubled hours and open them, that I may be refreshed and cheered when I need them. Let us learn to anoint our friends beforehand. Post-mortem kindness does not cheer the burdened spirit. Flowers cast no fragrance backward, over the weary way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wishing you all a day filled with the delightful, comforting and kind fragrances of friendship - and opened alabaster boxes!
Have a great day/night, everyone!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Wahhh, I miss S(S)S. >_<
Hey guys! Happy Friday. I have to take my birdies to my friend who is minding them. It's going to be way too quiet here without Havoc. :(
Something is going on with Cupcake. She may really need our help right now.
L.
link her blog please
Yes, please do. What's going on?
No, they would rather just be dramatic and leave it at that. Then come back and tell everyone how they saved her life and no one else did anything.
anon at 10:52
Shut Up
it's okay, i found it.
(that was me nsi, btw. sorry. was in a rush)
Here is is guys:
Cupcake's Blog
not the nasty anon, the link request anon, i mean.
here's the link, mustard:
cupcake's blog
oops, i'm slow!
This house is full of ears,
But I can't talk to anyone.
They've heard this one a thousand times.
Most exciting thing I do,
Hang half way out a third floor window,
Maybe throw lit cigarettes down.
And maybe I'll catch fire.
Something warm to hold me,
Something pure to burn away the darkness that hides inside my mind.
All that evil shit's not hard to find.
I guess I only claim to be nice.
This house is full of eyes,
But I can't look at anyone.
They've seen this face a thousand times.
Most relaxing thing I do,
Hang half way out a third floor window,
And look at rocks if I fall out.
Well maybe I'll fall hard.
Something tough to break me,
Something sharp to rip into my insides and bleed out all that pain.
Sorry I don't even know your name.
I guess for me it's easy this way.
Maybe I'll catch fire.
Something warm to hold me,
Something pure to burn away the darkness that hides inside my mind.
All that evil shit's not hard to find.
I guess I only claim to be nice.
ai, that's a sad lonesome song, anon. i can't let that stand without a response.
If you need water
I’ll be your river
Like a wave I will come over you
You need someone to fall into
I’ll be your river
And my love will carry you through
You like the flame and you are drawn by desire
Watchin’ and waitin’ in line for your turn
I’ve learned to walk with my back to the fire
I like the heat but I don’t wanna get burned
And if you need water
I’ll be your river
Like a wave I will come over you
You need someone to fall into
I’ll be your river
And my love will carry you through
Here stands a fortress built with great walls of silence
Ready to crumble at the slightest word
Findin’ the right one is becomin’ a science
I’d like to scream but I ain’t gonna be heard
And if you need water
I’ll be your river
Like a wave I will come over you
You need someone to fall into
I’ll be your river
And my love will carry you through
What if all these fears that we both buy into
Melt away and disappear
If you need water
I’ll be your river
Like a wave I will come over you
You need someone to fall into
I’ll be your river
And my love will carry you
My love will carry you
My love will carry you through

Hi Errbody *waves*
I felt sure there would be a new post when I got here. But as my friend Solly says 'Oh well, oh well, oh well.' ^_^
Sending really, really, super good vibes to those in Texas. Ike's about to kick some ass, so please be careful.
Jen,
Thanks a billion for getting "Sweet Child O' Mine" in mah head. It might be my second favorite, hell if I know, I can't count ;), GnR song. Whoop Whoop!
Hang tough, guys! It's FRIDAY!
Please, please, please if any of you are in the path of this storm, please seek shelter!
Is there anyone here from Texas besides Twisted Sister? I can't remember! I have a terrible time remembering things like that! Gah!
I do hope everyone is okay though. It doesn't look good.
I hope Cupcake is okay as well. Has anyone heard anything from her?

Have a good day and i hope you are well, just make sure you are having fun if you are super fly bizzy, its been a long time, my friend.
You guys, Havoc hugged me goodbye. He grabbed my shirt with his claws, put his head on my shoulder, and put his wings around my neck. Waahh, it was so hard to leave him!
Your beloved Frank called a teenager girl a cunt on stage some time ago. I wonder if you are all going to turn against him the way you turned against Gerard.
Where O' Where can Mayo be? /:
--------------------
Hi Guys.
:]
mayo at 3:13
I doubt it.
Ooooh, It's spooky in here,alone.
Truth be told, I doubt it, too. At least I very much hope that it is not true, because Frank advises a very stringent standard of behavior in the people who admire him: Be kind, don't say mean things, don't put others down, be charitable, be helpful. I like to think that we all try, and sometimes fail.
This includes Frank. If it were true, well, a human failing then, one that I would sincerely hope he regrets in the way that most of us regret not living up to our own standard.
Once isolated freak-out, however--and yes, if that is true, it would be a vile, McCain-esque freak out--does not equal more than a year of douchery.
On the whole, Frank is a peach and I am so sure that even if he did say such a thing, he probably felt really bad about it later.
Like you can't love someone you don't know, you can't "turn against" someone you don't know, either. The person who turned against Gerard Way was Gerard Way.
That said, if you want to see where my real problem lies with that whole situation, whether true or not, is in the reaction of his fans who seem to think, "LOL, well it's FRANK, he can do stuff like that! He is stressed / sings in Leathermouth / was being bothered!"
"Being bothered?" Yes. Yes, he was and is and continues to be bothered by fangirls who insist "I LOVE YOU FRANKIEEE BABY I LOVE YOU!!!" I saw the dude get harassed. I saw fangirls shouting their I Love You's and I saw two girls literally AIR HUMPING TOWARDS HIS BUS.
I have always said, and always will say, that your sex fantasies about people need to remain with you, or even with a few of your friends to giggle over. The second you make your sex fantasies about a real person available to the public, you lose about nine thousand "class" points. And the second you put your sex fantasies about a real person in a place where you mean for them to see them, you have lost all "class" points and have entered the realm of Creepy.
More, if the person in question clearly, obviously, without a doubt does not want your sex fantasies about him or your proclamations of love, then you are way, way, way out of line.
Frank is clearly one of those people who does not wish to be told "I love you" by people he doesn't really know. And somehow "But I met you after a show" doesn't seem to count as "knowing."
(I'd also like to point out the difference between respect/admiration/inspiration/your basic "Oh, Frank Iero, I love that guy!" and "Frank, I love you." HUGE diff.)
So yes, it's clear that he's harassed and upset.
But here's the thing. I would be willing to effing bet, as in, place actual currency in a wager, that the first people who would rush to his defense over it would be the exact same goddamn anons who are always on my case for the times I have defended myself from unwanted words.
Me? Well, in under a year, I have lost: the boy that I dated for like a second but really did like; my beloved dog; my job; and a huge chunk of my social circle. The anons (who I expect dislike me because of my opinion on Gerard) not only said horrible things abotu my dog the day after I lost her, not only called me ugly and vulgar names and suggested reasons why that guy never called me back, but they made sure that I lost my job.
And when I lashed out at those people--never mind that I never once got morose or self-pitying or even had the slightest bout of wah wah poor me over it--all of a sudden I was a huge bitch.
What did some gal (allegedly) say to Frank to (allegedly) invoke his ire? "I love you."
Watch those exact same anons who call me a bitch and expect me to sit there demurely and let them hurl vitriol at me while I never say a word, defend him over this. Just watch.
you have got to be fucking kidding me kapunua. it's not a years worth of vile but it's still fucking vile especially coming from frank. calling a kid that was probably overly excited and could not tastefully contain it a cunt? that's excusable? what the fuck ever. that is totally unacceptable coming from great sensative gentle frank. he has behaved and said better. i am disgusted. i can't belelive anyone could see that as acceptable behavior from him. that is just more reason to beleive the group of people we all came to admire so is so very gone. make me ill.
and no i have never spoken ill of you kapunua. i just think you would excuse frank for anything. and his behavior now is not excusable to me.
Like I said I doubt it.
i would hope he would still appreciate you're faith belle. nice to see you around. bye for now.
Nobody is actually sure he even said it. Apparently it was a mumble after some girl said she wanted to have his babies.
Personally I don't believe he called anyone a c*nt.
From reviews he seems to have been pleading with the teenies to stop the shrieking by silently gesturing to try and get them to quieten down and calm down. He even mouthed the words 'please stop' and as neither of those are aggressive actions it doesn't ring true that he would then turn round and call someone a c*nt. I suspect he has been misheard.
4:00, did you even read a word I said? If not, let me restate it, in case you missed the broader point: It makes me ill that people are hand-waving that behavior just because he is Frank. He is absolutely accountable, like we all are, for the things we say.
But no, it does not equal an entire year of treating people like crap. We have all had unfortunate incidents, and hopefully we feel sorry for them, and hopefully we try to make amends, and hopefully don't repeat them.
This is, of course, if he said it at all. Which, again, I doubt.
4:24, that account is actually from my review. The dude was extremely harassed and was practically begging the girls to quit fangirling him.
Your review was really good. Thanks for doing it, it was just like being there.
New Mayo.
Thank you, anon, I'm glad you liked it. :)
I hope he didn't either. I would be really disappointed if it turns out he did, and there would be no way I could support those actions.
And since it's inevitable that Gerard and Frank will be compared because of this, and like I told Smoke and Sdock and some others, Frank set standards for himself just as Gerard did. I held Gerard to his, so I'll be doing the same with Frank. I would want people to hold me to mine, so I'll hold people to theirs.
I think it might be a wise thing if we waited (or you cannot, it doesn't really matter) on more than hearsay, you know? It might be true, sure, or it might not be, but I personally will not be making any assumptions. I'm just going to wait for a bit.
I'd also like to give my opinion and support for the following:
Yes. Yes, he was and is and continues to be bothered by fangirls who insist "I LOVE YOU FRANKIEEE BABY I LOVE YOU!!!" I saw the dude get harassed. I saw fangirls shouting their I Love You's and I saw two girls literally AIR HUMPING TOWARDS HIS BUS.
This greatly disappoints me, because I can understand the frustration Frank or any artist might experience given this situation. I will always maintain that there is a line, and it does not, under any circumstances, need to be crossed.
If you enjoy their work, please be respectful of it and their being, because I'm sure they'd rather have you do that anyway, or maybe that's just me. They're there to perform their music for you, a lot of hard work and dedication goes into getting it out there, and it's obvious they aren't feeling it from you. Just, overall, if you respect them enough to go see them play for you live, respect them while you're there.
I have always said, and always will say, that your sex fantasies about people need to remain with you, or even with a few of your friends to giggle over. The second you make your sex fantasies about a real person available to the public, you lose about nine thousand "class" points. And the second you put your sex fantasies about a real person in a place where you mean for them to see them, you have lost all "class" points and have entered the realm of Creepy.
100% Agreed.
I'm so sorry for such a long ramble. It all made sense in my head.
Just say it, say it already”
“I don’t.”
Did you tell her that you don't love her? You were just being honest.
What, no bread crumbs?
Check where the tide is going in and out for more, RW. =)
