Burning the Manual

I have righted myself before you.
Pulled the knife out of my wound,
And shoved it back in yours.
Like you knew I would.
Like you knew I could.
Before I ever had a name
You knew it was there,
Everything for you
And you know it, and I
Know it still, the same.




p.s. who is driving who or...what?

CHICKEN POT PIE!!!!

*checks the oven*

HEY.

THERE'S NO CHICKEN POT PIE IN HERE!!!

Anon616 said...

*pokes head back in*

I think I'm over my most recent attack of Dr. Seuss~itus. Can I come back in now, Amy? Please.

*bats eyelashes, raises one eyebrow and smiles ~ slightly*

I don't know about you; but, I just don't think poultry belongs in pie. Coconut, lemon, chocolate... yes!!! Poultry and meat... NO!

Anon616 said...

Pssst... Amy: You checked the wrong oven.

Tonight, I made:

~~~Veggie lasagne!!!!~~~

Much, much better than Chicken Pot Pie! Well, I think it is.

KOL anon: Where are you? I'm going through your links withdrawal. Although, Martha did leave us a great KOL link a couple of days ago!

Em and Sweetcheeks: Where are the two of you? I finally decided to purchase Season I of True Blood and I am loving it!!!!! Ya'll didn't mention how funny it was!

I think I'll go watch episode 5 now. I do believe I have finally recovered from episode 4! Jason's overdosing on V juice was hilarious!!!! Good grief! That poor man!

so when i sat down at the computer tonight i decided to listen to tbp. i hadn't listened to it for a while; i have to stick to sfw cds at the shop. but when i put in the headphones and turned on my mp3 player, muse hijacked it! lol

i had forgotten i was playing them today, and i had also forgotten that they sound really good in headphones.

so i've been rocking out to my hijackers.

*heh*

Amyranth said...

Hallo Wendy and Teej!

Why not Veggie Pot Pie? Same base, with a flaky pastry top, but do a savoury veggie inside, like yams, potatoes, carrots, peas, corn, and beans in a thickened vegetable stock base.

I think it sounds good.

Anonymous said...

mmmm mmmmm yes he was

Original Punk J said...

Chicken pot pie does sound good. Instead of putting peas in it, though, which I can't eat, I'd put carrots, maybe some green beans. I wonder if broccoli and cauliflower would be good in that too. Hmm. May have to try that someday.

Original Punk J said...

Great song, anon. Thanks for the link.

toujours said...

hi amyranth, hi j.! sorry, i wandered off a little.

broccoli and cauliflower are difficult to get to really work in a regular pot pie, j. -- they have a very strong flavor, i think i read once it's because they're part of the same family that includes cabbage. it's why you don't usually include them in veg stock either; they overwhelm the other vegetables.

but who knows what you might discover in your experimentations!

Amyranth said...

Broccoli in a risotto is incredible, but I've never tried cauliflower.

I've always found cauliflower to be rather bland myself.

Original Punk J said...

Hey TJ, hey Amy--you know, I'll probably never make a pot pie of any kind, so I guess my thoughts on it are moot...but carrots would still be good!

Y'all doing ok tonight?

toujours said...

lol, i've never made a pot pie, either,j., and likewise probably never will! but i did try my hand at figuring out a vegetarian shepherd's pie...

wasn't too bad, if i do say so myself!


i'm doing alright. might be going to a shindig tomorrow night (if my boss if feeling better), so i'm looking forward to that.

how are you?

Original Punk J said...

I'm sort of *eh* tonight: don't feel horrible, yet don't feel great either. Reading back, you know? Fuck.

Yeah, I don't tackle pie crust either. :D My one true specialty is baked spaghetti. Oh, and brownies. Although they come from a box, so, do they really count? ;)

Martha Smith-Jones said...

O_O Really this is odd but you may like it.

yeah, i know. :(

and i think box brownies do count, because i have known people who have screwed them up horribly. lol

do you ever put choclate chips in yours? i would do that occasionally.

Original Punk J said...

Uuuuumm...no, Martha, can't say that I did. Some things are just better left to the imagination.

And then there's stuff like that. O_o

Original Punk J said...

Haven't tried adding chocolate chips, or anything else actually. Sometimes I'll get the mixes that have extras added already, like toffee chips--YUUUUUUUUUUMMY--or the cheesecake ones. Keep meaning to try the peanut butter ones but haven't yet.

Amyranth said...

I cook actively, but I still make my cakes from a box. Cookies, cheesecakes and loaves are all made by hand, it's just... I can't get chocolate cake. Go figure.

Original Punk J said...

So you cook from scratch, Amy? Not many people do that nowadays, do they? My mom still cooks/bakes some things from scratch, but has made the switch to boxed cake mixes with little to no trauma! :D

Amyranth said...

Okay! I'm packed and ready to go!

Gone to the lake until next Monday, I will see you all when I get back.

(Don't worry, I trimmed Lear's nails. :P)

Have a good weekend everyone!

Amyranth said...

And yes J, I mostly cook/bake from scratch. There's stuff I can't do, like most ethnic foods, but the rest of it I'm not too shabby at.

Original Punk J said...

Bye Amy, have a good trip! Watch out for poison ivy/oak/sumac and mosquitos!

*passes bottle of calamine lotion and can of mosquito repellant to Amy*

toujours said...

have fun, amyranth!

i used to bake alot, it was the first thing i learned. even made choclate eclairs for french class once in high school. that was kinda fun. :)

don't do any of that much any more.

but! time to say good night. :)

sweet dreams, j. -- hope you feel better tomorrow!

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Good night

amy have fun.

Oh, goodnight TJ! Hope you get to go to your shindig tomorrow. Sleep well.

Night guys

Take care

elena said...

Mayo

It was a great day. Hope your day was a good one too.

Now we are in the hotel for the night watching Venture Bro on Adult Swim.

Tomorrow it's time to head home. It's been a great trip.

Talk to ya soon. Take care

Night Mayo

Elena

toujours said...

mayo,

might not be here tomorrow night, my boss won a couple of v.i.p. tickets to a margarita party at a local riverboat casino.

really. *grin*

i don't go to casinos, not really. once with elena. i don't have anything against them, i just don't get what's fun about gambling. but there will be live music, and we'll have a few drinks and talk and laugh and probably even flirt a bunch. *heh*

should be fun.

on the other hand, my boss has been feeling under the weather, so the whole thing might be called off, too.


so who knows, but i have to admit it's weird to me to be so casual about the evening. maybe i'm just more focused on my upcoming trip next month, or maybe i'm just not the little boozer i was back in high school...

*heh*



in any case, have a good night, mayo, and my wishes for one tomorrow night, too. sweet dreams.

toujours said...

(but what i really wanted to tell you, mayo, was that tonight i have had the ghosts of pleasant solitary evenings haunting me, something in the air no doubt, bringing back the scents and shreds of winter evenings on the blog, sitting at my clean and bare wooden table, listening to the lashes or muse for the first time, and then, just as i posted my good night, last year in california came back to me, how it felt sitting in a cluttered tiny teacher's office, writing a good night on the computer she so graciously allowed me to use, still sore and damp from the night spent packed in a g.a. festival crowd, the adventure of heading out on the road and the strangeness of sleeping in an empty classroom all vivid again, but distant, too, like a song playing in another room. i have so much to thank you for, i don't think i will ever feel like i've said it enough.)

Original Punk J said...

Hello Mayo,

It's a rare occurence for me to write you a 'stand-alone' goodnight. Don't freak out or anything, it's nothing bad.

So many times I've meant to come in and talk with my friends, but simply couldn't because of all that other crap. Yeah, I know nobody 'out there' likes us, or you, or SS, but come on. Every day?

I still like coming here; I've met a lot of good people here. I miss the Friday and Saturday nights where we'd all let loose and be silly. I miss having discussions about your posts, especially when you'd come in and ask what we thought of this line or that part. I miss you and SS coming in to be silly with us. I miss the parties.

I miss the feeling of unity, of Family.

I even miss Mayo's Rose.

Don't mind me, I'm just feeling maudlin tonight. This, too, shall pass, as they say.

Goodnight Mayo, have a fine tomorrow. Enjoy it with your friends.

elena said...

TJ

How funny you would talk about being at the casino with me tonight. I was just thinking about that. Good times, good times....

Oh well, need to get off the computer now but Hubby is being so damn sweet it's almost scary. He is the one who reminded me to write my goodnight and he wanted me to say "hey" for him to everyone. Shit, I wish he and I didn't have to go home tomorrow but hey, that's life. But we do have another bike trip planned for Oct. He's taking me to Hannibal Mo for a Ghost Tour. How fuckin' cool it that?

Okay, I'm heading towards rambling mode so I better go

Night everyone...Have a great tomorrow!!!!!!!

Original Punk J said...

Dear SS,

As you can read, my head's in a deep place tonight that I don't particularly like. This happens mostly at night, when it does happen, which is more than I care for.

I'm not going to bother you with any details; you're probably tired of hearing my 'I'm so down' shit. Who knows, maybe you're tired of hearing my everything. You're too kind to tell me if I'm annoying or embarrassing, though, so I've continued to ramble at you all this time. If you want me to quit, please let me know. I know you don't come around too much anymore, but I hope it's not because of something I've said.

My feelings haven't changed, I doubt they ever will.

Goodnight honey.

You know the rest.

Always.

Original Punk J said...

Hey and goodnight Elena, tell Mr Elena "hey" back and I'm glad to hear you're having such a good time! Be careful, talk to you when you get back.

ergoproxy said...

goodnight everyone
sweet dreams


I am still not at all sure on the pot pie thing, but to make pies (which I do) I use frozen pre-rolled puff pastry sheets, if it's shortcrust I do have pre-rolled but making it in a processor is really easy
I make most things from scratch, if you allow using spice pastes.

Amy I will send you a chocolate cake recipe that is really simple, and you can even mix it in a processor if you are really lazy!!

TJ , I agree MUSE is awesome on headphones

elena, safe trip home

J hope you feel less blah tomorrow

MJ you find the oddest things

wendy you need to expand your pie appreciation, I have had a very amazingly delicious indian curried vegetable pie, as well as fantastic spinach ones, plus such a huge variety of meat,(we had leftover bolognaise mince and cheese pies yesterday) I LOVE pies, wrap anything in pastry and it's good LOL

ergoproxy said...

oh meant to add, the trick with using broccoli or cauliflower in a pie is to cook it first to al dente. in fact same goes for carrot or any other harder vegetable, and is pretty much better for any pie filling
I often cook the whole pie filling, meat and veges in a creamy mornay type sauce for chicken is best, and cool it
that way it doesn't start to melt the pastry as you put it in, and the time it takes for the pastry to cook, heats the pie filling through
easier than worrying about whether it has cooked everything from raw

one exception is Cornish pasties, with shortcrust pastry and beef thinly sliced, potato, onion and turnip (and NEVER contains carrot or peas *shudder*) you add a tiny bit of water and fold the pastry over, they are THE nicest!
And now I think I'll make them over the weekend :]

ergoproxy said...

Mayo
ah it's so nice to have the weekend :]
hope your Friday is a good one in the lead-up

Ergo: Do you think you will be in the mood for a visit from an American friend the week of February 20th?!!!

~~~Soundwave Festival ~ What an incredible lineup! I want to go!!!~~~

Good morning/afternoon/night Mayo, SS, L and J, Ergo, Elena, Mya, Martha, Amy, TJ, MissT, Wish, everyone!

How is everyone today? Are you all preparing for a fun weekend? I hope so!

L: How are you feeling and what did you just see? I'm too lazy look (and I'm a little busy keyboarding) right now!

Thank you for the Rancid!!! And, I loved that flipping kitty! LOL!

J: *huge hug*

Amy: Again, HAVE FUN and be careful! Watch out for snakes and spiders too!!!

Martha: About that catching laptops with your butt cheeks video, I think that could very well be an Olympic event!!!! It seems to require GREAT SKILL and the ability to work through pain and just "suck it up" !

Ergo: I just don't know about those pot pies. I'll make them; but, eating them is an entirely different matter.

I was traumatized by a pot pie when I was child. Seriously, I was!

Imagine you are (spproximately) six years old and visiting one of your favorite uncles. After a nice, hot afternoon of playing in his big back yard (with the friendly squirrels and even more friendly puppies), he brings out a "mini apple pie" ala mode.

In your excitement, you just jam your fork into that icecream and pie and shove it into your mouth without looking.

Then, imagine your suprise when you taste the veggies and chicken with the icecream!!!!! Not good! Not good at all!

In fact, it was downright HORRIBLE!

My poor Uncle felt horrible too. He got the pies confused!

Well, that is the true story of how I was traumatized, in my youth, by a chicken pot pie (ala mode). My taste buds just can't forget the horror!


Enjoy the day ~ ala mode, everyone!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Hi PJ, Sweetcheeks, GS, RW, EB, KD, CTV, SIM, DG and DA!

KOL anon said...

Hello, everyone. It is a beautiful clear morning here in Cincinnati.

Yep, I'm in Cincinnati again. I saw Blink 182 last night. What a great show! They played like they've never missed a beat. It's so good to see them on the same stage together -- and even better -- getting along with one another! Even hugging at one point.

So, yeah. I'm going to tell everyone to go out and see them if you have the chance. We even enjoyed FOB (shhh... Don't tell anyone! I'm not exactly a fan), but didn't get there in time for Panic (can't say I was terribly upset over that).

Later on in the tour, TBS is opening for them. If only I could have fit one of those shows into my schedule. *sighs* Oh well.

Martha! Thank you so much for posting that ONTD KOL link! I didn't see it and I would have felt terribly guilty if I'd missed it altogether. I love the comments in those posts. KOL fans just love to post picspam and great performance vids on ONTD. So thanks again. I enjoyed it very much!

Don't worry about that OP-J. Anyone who would say such a gross thing about little children, someone's babies, in a movie theater because they ruined Transformer's for him, won't mind how you treated Kapunua about the death of her father, on the same day he died. The things you said to her, about her, to hurt her, over her father's death. Trust me a guy like that would probably like the things you did to her. He'll still let you use that dildo ..... guaranteed.

"SS" to answer your question, does 'playing" to not get 'old' count as sitting on the couch all day and talking to Frank Iero once every few months. Because that's what the OP's seem to do. What a life. You are their one highlight. I guess that keeps them 'young'.

I am hugging my father today.

(waits for OP-J to once again point out that Kap isn't the only person around here to lose a father yeh yeh so what, she's a bitch anyway because she asked you not to bother her about her dad but you did anyway).

KOL anon said...

Hi, KOL anon 1,000,000+!

Sorry to take so long getting back to you. I wouldn't worry too much about getting into ontd_kol. I don't really watch that community anymore because most of the girls there complain all the time about new fans and how they don't like OBTN, which I happen to think is a great record. Sure, the early records are great, but I see OBTN as the band growing and branching out. Yes, I love me some Molly's Chambers, but that doesn't mean I can't love Revelry and Closer as well.

Anyway, here, and here are a couple of good sites to get pictures. Also, there is this site, which tends to make me crazy, but you might have the patience to sift through it. Also, there is it ain't hemingway. The Kings of Leon official site is really good and so is their facebook. Also, there's a Kings of Leon channel on youtube, where the band posted some priceless footage of themselves while they were making OBTN.


Now, for some good links. Clean shaven, elvish Caleb, you say? Here is my absolute favorite picture. It even has Grandpa Leon in it. ^_^ I miss that Caleb. He probably wasn't as healthy or happy as he is now, but God, was he gorgeous.

And here is some really old school Kings. Red Morning Light at T in the Park, 2003. Enjoy!

Hi, Wendy, OPL, OPJ, Wendy, Ergo, Amy, Toujours, Elena and PP (and anyone else I missed). I'm glad you had a good trip and made it home safely, Elena.

Hope you all have a lovely day.

Hello Muddah, hello Faddah
Here I am at camp Grenada
Camp is very entertaining
And they say we'll have some fun if it stops raining


I went hiking with Joe Spivey
He developed poison ivy
You remember Leonard Skinner
He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner



All the counselors hate the waiters
And the lake has alligators
And the head coach wants no sissies
So he reads to us from something called Ulysses

Now I don't want this should scare ya'
But my bunkmate has malaria
You remember Jeffery Hardy
They're about to organize a searching party

Take me home, oh Muddah, Faddah
Take me home, I hate Grenada
Don't leave me out in the forest where
I might get eaten by a bear


Take me home, I promise I will
Not make noise, or mess the house with
Other boys, oh please don't make me stay
I've been here one whole day




Dearest Fadduh, Darling Muddah
How's my precious little bruddah
Let me come home if you miss me
I would even let Aunt Bertha hug and kiss me



Wait a minute, it's stopped hailing
Guys are swimming, guys are sailing
Playing baseball, gee that's bettah
Muddah, Faddah kindly disregard this letter

Haha L, I was told 'all information collected is handled according to the data protection act' whilst calling to complain that my personal information had been sent out to me in an unsealed envelope. I can't stand those pre-recorded messages.

Ergo, you made chocolate eclairs? I made some a while ago but making the choux pastry was tiring.

SS, I'd say you're right. I guess it's the same with anything you really love to do. You'll get old eventually anyway, but not where it matters. Don't stop.
Perfect freedom is reserved for the man who lives by his own work and in that work does what he wants to do.

Good afternoon everyone! Hello to Wendy, KOL Anon/s (? I'm not sure how many of you were here!), Wish, Friendly Anons, all and sundry who might be in the corners.

There truly isn't enough silliness in the world, Precious. Too many people take themselves waaaaaaaaaaay too seriously. You're right, it IS a great pleasure. So, let's never grow old. :D

So glad to see you this morning--take care, I love you, and thanks.

11.22, honestly, you people are growing more desperate by the day. I don't have to explain myself to you. You and your group already believe what you want to believe. Can't change that.

But realize this: your words don't affect me. Why not? Because every one of them is a lie. You don't know me or anything about me, or my friends. So stop with your old tired accusations already. They don't work anymore.

Ladies, Mayo, SS: I'll be back later tonight. Have a good one.

How is that a lie. She asked you not to talk to her. You even admitted you knew she didn't want you to talk about her deceased father. But you did anyway.

I consider that cruel and if it was me in her position, God forbid, losing my father and having you do that I would have a shit fit. You are so wrong to act the way you do.

It's all right there. It's all back a few pages for anyone to see.

But like I said. Frank won't mind because his "nice" act is just that too..... an act. I'm sure he's perfectly fine with you treating people like shit, stalking them and harrassing them over recently deceased people. Walking all over them for attention while they are in mourning. When you admitted yourself that you knew she didn't want you to do that to her.

This is why, you disgust me.

Original Punk J said...

You know, for folks who complain about Elena being whiny, y'all whine more than anyone I've ever met.

My comment that I wrote was to show that many others of us here can commiserate with K. In other words, we know what she's going through. I said I was sorry to hear that her father had passed. She TOLD us later not to talk to her under any circumstances; to be technical, I didn't speak TO her. Passing on condolences in a time of grief is what you do in the South, no matter the relationship between you and whoever. It's the civil thing to do.

Now, since she didn't want me talking TO or ABOUT her, why don't you drop it? Otherwise YOU'RE disrespecting her.

"This is why, you disgust me."

Say you had a neighbor who was shitty and shouted insults at you and posted yoru private info all over your street and you had told them to leave you alone. Then you lose a family member. You don't want a private sympathy card from them in your mail do you? No. So would you want them standing int he middle of the street shouting their condolences to you?

Especially if they think it will impress the mayor of the block?

Anonymous said...

I was going to repost her words anyway but since you're back maybe you can get the hint of what it OBVIOUS she is telling you.


Kapunua NSI said...

Wow, so I just read on VV's about what was going on here.

Guess what? You're damn right I'm throwing your false sympathy back in your insincere faces. I have asked you--especially Wendy and OPJ--repeatedly, repeatedly, to leave me alone. I have made it clear that I don't want to hear from you.

I've made it clear that your words are painful to me. Over and over again, I've made that clear.

Yet you insist on screaming your "condolences" from the rooftops, in hopes that "the important people" will hear them.

Honestly, why would you try to do that to me after I had asked you so many timesto quit with me, and after I made it perfectly clear when my Grandma passed that I didn't want any of that nonsense from you?

I can come up with two reasons. 1) For the benefit of Mayo and SS and 2) maybe as much fun for you: to hurt me.

Which, like MJ, you succeeded. Good on you! Using my Dad--my champion, who never wanted anything negative to touch me--in order to make yourselves feel better.

Here's a newsflash for you: My Dad hated you. My Mom used to read this blog (she obviously hasn't been on the computer since Daddy's gone, and I've asked her to never look at it again, finding out what you all were up to on here.) And my Dad would always ask her, "What're ya reading?" and she would tell him all about this blog. (And he knew a lot, because he also met Solly, Smoke and Fim. He bought them dinner and passes to Epcot Center. He liked them a lot.) More and more my Mom would get upset and say, "That stupid blog again. They're all picking on her again, she's not even there!"

And my Dad would get so upset, my Mom stopped telling him. Oh, he had such choice things to say about you lot. She showed him pictures of you too and he was aghast. "THEY are the ones picking it out on my daughter? Please. They're jealous."

So you can take your "condolences" and you can write them on a big banner and hang them off the front of this blog and SS's. I seriously hope you all get to marry Mayo and SS, or have their babies or whatever it is that you want. Maybe they'll see how wonderful you are and finally hook up with you.

But while you're over there using me, and my beloved Dad, to try to get yourselves some kind of higher rank on some stupidass random blog, just remember: My Dad was my champion, and he knew exactly what you were.

Anon, I'm not on anyone's side in your argument, but I have to ask what it is you're trying to achieve with this. I think you can be sure that everyone who is going to see your case, has by now, so what are you looking to come of it?

Anonymous said...

And I really don't believe you were saying you "commiserate" with her. your point was "it's not like she's the only one who lost her dad. Remember ME TOO and all of my friends who lost their father".

What a shitty ass thing to say but you are after all a passive aggressive shit anyway......

God Forbid if it was my situation and my father....... I don't know what I do because you know how powerless people are on the internet so you could jsut keep on picking and picking when you know no-one can stop you.

Hmmm might as well ask yourself, what is OP-J's point in talking about her after she told her not to. ...

Anonymous said...

Don't forget, 1:53 TJ thinks the "mayor" thing is "amusing", because the situation really calls for laughter.

Wish you were here said...

The only reason I was asking you anon, as oposed to OPJ, is that she's not (as far as I'm aware) come in and consistanly said for no reason 'I'm trying to offer sympathy and she doesn't want it, etc etc' for people to them come back ant tell her why. But I have seen anons come in and without prompting, make remarks about it. I don't know Kapunua, but do you think she'd want to see it carried on if she happened to pop by to see how things were going here?

Original Punk J said...

Hey! I've seen that exact same commment at 1.53 here before. Aimed at me! Wow, how underwhelming to know I don't even rate some new words.

"Mayor of the block"? We don't have those here. Where do YOU live that you have mayors for each block?

"In a public forum"? No, baby, we speak face-to-face here. Not on the Internet. As for it being 'shitty', well, that's your opinion. Perhaps you think differently in your country.

I'm not your "baby". Maybe Frank is but I am not. And this is a public forum and you did what you did to get his attention.

But don't worry like I said, I think he is just as much of jerk as you are so I doubt you will drive him away with your cruelty.

Original Punk J said...

Tell me this: what exactly did I do that was so cruel, as you put it? This has become a heinous act of vast proportions, which could have been completely ignored if she didn't like it.

Anonymous said...

She told you, I told you, other people told you. Her words say it better than I could.

How cold you are. "I'm going to talk to her about her father even though I admit I know she doesn't want me to"

and now ....

"Oh well she can ignore it if she doesn't like it".

You are such a cold, passive aggressive bitch I can't even phathom.

Anonymous said...

Guess what? You're damn right I'm throwing your false sympathy back in your insincere faces. I have asked you--especially Wendy and OPJ--repeatedly, repeatedly, to leave me alone. I have made it clear that I don't want to hear from you.

I've made it clear that your words are painful to me. Over and over again, I've made that clear.

Yet you insist on screaming your "condolences" from the rooftops, in hopes that "the important people" will hear them.

Honestly, why would you try to do that to me after I had asked you so many timesto quit with me, and after I made it perfectly clear when my Grandma passed that I didn't want any of that nonsense from you?

I can come up with two reasons. 1) For the benefit of Mayo and SS and 2) maybe as much fun for you: to hurt me.

Which, like MJ, you succeeded. Good on you! Using my Dad--my champion, who never wanted anything negative to touch me--in order to make yourselves feel better.



And OP-J's response being,


She could just ignore it if she doesn't like it.

God in Heaven. You are awful.

Anonymous said...

"which could have been completely ignored if she didn't like it."


Holy shit, is she serious? I'm going to bother you about your dead father but if you dont' like it, just ignore it?

This place is a festering sore on the pussy of life.

OP-J at 2:13, I guess that blocking your emails woul dmean she doesn't want to hear from you.

maybe it's different in the South but I think that's a lame excuse. I know people from the south and they are not nasty like that.

Shame on you 2:13. Calling somebody a bitch in public. I've never seen such vulgarity anywhere on the webz or in the real world. It's disgusting.

Shame shame

Anonymous said...

Anons who like Kapu and who consider her a friend, please listen to me.

I like her too. And for the most part I agree with you.

But you all know this is a terrible place full of passive aggressive people.

And what you're going to see now is "anonymous" attacks on her. Like MJ, Mya the other day only they won't give themselves away so easily. (Like OPJ probably up there who didn't even try to sound different In fact I think she used the exact same words on here once).

I like her too. I feel so bad about her Dad. But these people are sharks and all you're doing is throwing them some chum. They are going to start ripping her apart now and I personally don't want to read it.

I suppose I could just forget the blog but I think that words so evil about here are going out there into the world, somehow they will sill hurt. I feel she needs positiveness and light and peace.

Not for a bunch of (maybe) well meaning people to get the sharks here to feed on her.

I know it doesn't seem fair and you want to stick up for something you think is right. For someone you like.

But sometimes the nastiness is overwhelming and like someone else said...They know there's nothing you can do to stop them picking and picking the sore. You are powerless to stop them.

So it's better to just not START them. Don't you agree???

Original Punk J said...

"Oh well she can ignore it if she doesn't like it".

That's what she always told us to do. Remember?

It's "F-A-T-H-O-M", girlie. You never could spell.

So I'm awful. So quit talking to me. Is that too hard to do?

Anonymous said...

What? You think the anon is MJ?

Anonymous said...

"Never could spell" how do you even know such a thing. How lame of you to pick on a spelling mistake anyway.

So you could justify your cruelty by dragging her down again saying that she said, "just ignore it"? I dont' even understand that.

Really don't understand how a person could be so cold ..... so hateful and so hurtful.

It actually bothers me how mean you are. Maybe it shouldn't but it does.

At 2.13? No, that's not me.

You people are unbelievable.

"OP-J at 2:13, I guess that blocking your emails woul dmean she doesn't want to hear from you."

I didn't email her. After I told her to leave my blog and not come back, SHE emailed ME to tell me not to email her. I can find those emails for you if you like.

OPJ in a nutshell said...

It's not like the bitch is the only one to lose a dad. Here are my condolences even though she's a bitch and I know for a fact it's going ot upset her if I talk about her dead father.

Oh well, she said this once so it is my excuse. She can ignore it if it hurts her too much.

I hope that SS still likes me after all of this because it's all I care about.

2:19 said...

Do you see what I mean now? It's just going to get OPJ started on her lies and posting private info (emails like she's threatening to now .... wouldn't be the first time, remember she did it to Sdock with her real name too), Well-meaning (I think) anons, OPJ WILL do this to the person you are trying to defend when she is not here to defend HERSELF.

You are only getting her started and beating the nest of hornets. And trust me, these hornets are not "little orange bees" like they accused Sdock and Smoke. They will sting.

So just put some smoke on them and let them go back to sleep.

Can't you see that you're not burnign the hive .... you are only stirring it up?

That anon isn't Martha. Martha writes in her dialect. If you knew anything about her, you'd know that too.

Ok, so you think I'm cold, cruel, heartless, mean, unforgivable, a bitch, disgusting, unworthy of everything, delusional, a "sweaty old hag" by your own definition...what have I left out?

OPJ, I apologize deeply on behalf of everyone here. Please, please please put your mean-ness away for now and leave her alone.

I'm sorry that people are bothering you. It's just the internet. It's not worth it ...right? You said so yourself. Take your advice and ignore it like you think they should do ...Like you think Kapunua should have done about your words towards the death of her father.

Please do the right thing. I'm sorry they are making the blog unpleasant for you. I apologize on their behalf. Please accept it and put your words down. I think the hateful words, whether she reads them are not, are still making it out into the world and she doesn't need it, no one does. Somehwere, even if she (or anyone else) doesn't know why I think it will still sting ... still hurt.

It's wrong of you to threaten to post her email asking you to stop talking to her. I am equally sure there's another side to the story. BUT it is important for you to accept my apology on behalf of the rest of the blog and to stop this.

ANONS, stop this. You are stirring them up. Apologize to OPJ, maybe she will stop.

Please please accept my apologies OPJ and stop this. Even if today you didn't start it, you can still accept my apologies about everyone else and end it.

OPJ, accept the apologies and please leave Kapunua alone. I know that today you didn't bring her up and you can place the blame on the anon who did. But please please leave the poor girl out of it. You don't have to keep adding on, threatening to send out private emails, insisting that she should "ignore" the things you said about the passing of her father.... She is not a part of this. Even her friends can't find her.

If anyone has heard from her I would be interested in knowing if she is OK. Maybe she just needs some time but I have not seen her here, on VV or on her journal.

But please please don't write it here... as you can see the mention of her gets people in "threatening" mode again. If anyone's heard from her, it might be nice to update at VV's.

Where were the apologies for all the times I, and the rest of my friends, have been dragged through the gutter? That's all very nice, your apologies are kind. I'll accept them.

I am so tired of being an anon whipping-post for everything. That seems to be my blog-job, is pissing y'all off and then hearing about how nasty I am for two years. Just drop it. I get what you're saying.

I don't put any credence to any of it, but I get it.

Hate me, mock me, lie about me, harrass me, write snide remarks about me, try to belittle me, do your damnedest. I've always said what I feel. I'm still going to. You guys won't get anywhere attacking me. I DON'T have to justify myself to you, you're nobody I know. Right? In that case, it's none of your business.

It's been really fun playing with you guys, even though you weren't a bit silly. I've got real life to tend to.

"Get off the internet" from someone who spends her day on the sofa passively aggressively attacking mourning people and hoping that Frank Iero talks to her.

Sorry but I don't apologize. That is MY opinion. Nothing to do with Kapunua, if OPJ keeps wanting to drag her into it that is her business. Do I think its nice, no. But I won't apologize to her just because I'm afraid she's going to tear up someone else even if it is unfair.

Nice idea trying to appease her but it's really not going to change anything for too long. Sad.

Anonymous said...

2:19 did a good job today of appeasing the beast. Maybe we can all follow the lead and just let her have her way. I think it will save good people future trouble. Bother OPJ, she will turn around and shit on someone who has enough trouble in her life already. Can we all maybe agree to just appease the beast?

Anonymous said...

3:30, I just don't think it's going to work. She's not going to be sorry for the many, many mean and nasty things she did, said or caused to happen, and she'll never ever admit that she was wrong. BUT do you really believe it will prevent further nastiness from her? OPJ is a loose canon and we know she has a hate on for a group of people here ... so do her friends and they are unstoppable.

So people who hate the way they are have some choices, you can ignore them and just read Mayo, if you even still like to read him. You can totally leave the blog like the good folks did after years of stalking. Or you can continue to fight with them.

None of those options are "right" or "fair" but a few of them might be easy. Maybe its best to just walk away. They will gloat and say "yeah leave don't let the door hit your ass" etc etc and on and on, but they do that anyway.

Do you really think it will stop them from going on the attack and acting nasty? All it takes is for someone to breathe the names of any of the people they hate and it's a rampage all over again.

You can "appease the beast" for a while but it's going to get bored and wake up again sometime.

1000 Hour Eyelash Tint: Love it! It was sort of tricky and scary, but I got it done with no problems!

Lumigan (aka Latisse): My lashes were beginning to get sparse on the outside corners, but not anymore! You can purchase Lumigan (aka Latisse) for less than $30 via AllDayChemist.com or you can go to your dermatologist and get a script for latisse and pay over $100.

Zoloft: Works for me!

KOL anon said...

A couple of things and then I am most definitely hitting the hay.

First to Elena: I misspoke earlier. What I meant to say is that I hope you have a safe trip home.

Secondly, to anon @1:42: Doesn't he have amazing bone structure? Seriously, having met the man I can tell you that pictures don't even do him justice. All of the Followills are gorgeous and Nathan is incredibly sexy, but Caleb is probably the single most beautiful human being I've ever laid eyes on -- male or female.

And last of all to Mya: How do you apply the Lumigan? I ask this because Latisse comes with special applicators and I was wondering what you use instead? I wouldn't mind trading in my $110.00/month Latisse for the less expensive Lumigan if I only knew how to apply it.

Okay. Exhausted from my drive. Going to bed now.

Hmmm.... reinacting the Kennedy asassination? I'm going to call that art. It's gory; but, I still think it's art.

Some of the "goriest" pieces of art I've seen have been representations of the stations of the cross and the crucifixion of Christ.

ergoproxy said...

it's artistic, and well composed and photographed, for it's subject,
and not the first time murder scenes have been recreated by photographers,
however, not a style I personally like.
Many say part of arts purpose is to be confronting and create controversy, I don't necessarily hold to that, but I am sure it will fulfil it's purpose.

Anon616 said...

I mean, you can't really 'pretty up' asassinations and crucifixtions.

Well, I suppose you could; but, doing that would take away from the pain and suffering of the actual event. Take some of the 'emotion' the artist is trying to convey out of the piece of art.

What do you think of the picture, anon? What emotions does it stir in you?

Anon at 1:22

I thought long and hard about this and I will admit the photo shocked me. So many thoughts filled my mind. Finally I guess I came to a conclusion that I believe in my heart is true no matter how much I hate it. It’s all about the money. Music, art…if it doesn’t sell, well then it fails. Sad but true. It’s all about the money. I fuckin’ hate the way of the world but so it goes…..

ergoproxy said...

I think the question would be whether people feel it is appropriate to recreate an event of that kind.
Many would feel it isn't, then others would feel it's an emotional response they are looking for, and therefore they are justified.
It is a very recognisable image.
It really is , as all art, a matter of personal opinion.

ergoproxy said...

hello elena

very true, and it would create discussion, and as they say, Any attention, good or bad, is still attention

Anon616 said...

Does anyone know why the picture/portrait was taken?

Was it done for an artbook? Was it done for charity? Is the photographer a family member or friend? Was it their idea or the photographer's idea? Were they helping the photographer realize his/her vision?

WOW! That's a lot of questions! Even for me!

I've sent you an email about a few days ago, but it looks like it didn't go through. I think I'm having problems with yahoo :(

I've missed you bunches! I've been spending a lot of my time writing a bunch of things(I write in my spare time) you know, an outlet to release my emotive side lol, and some other things. I've been doing alright, thanks for asking.

I got some great news though: They're already started posting the U.S. dates for the 69 Eyes. I'm gonna assume they're coming here either in November or October, but it's possible I won't be here, but I'm keeping an eye for a Chicago date.

The fur babies are doing pretty well, Bugsy is finally learning how to bark! LOL. How's your fur babies doing?

You're welcome for the True Blood recommendation. I knew you'd like it! Season two so far is close to coming to an end. There's only four episodes yet, and HBO just recently renewed it for a third season, which won't air until next summer.

Ergo, yeah I wouldn't either. And hi there, how's the baby chicks doing? Being adorable I bet!

It's hard to figure out what its intended use is without knowing anything about it.

Does anyone know anything about it?

Anonymous said...

I meant to say, there's only four episodes of Season Two left. Oops.

Wendy, yeah, I only read that it was going to be a cover art for TUA, but other than that, I don't want to give those two(Lyn-Z and GW) any more attention on that garbage.

They're not worth it.

ergoproxy said...

oh they are BC, I ahve 8. 7 with the mum and one in a box down here, teaching it to feed etc
I'll have some pics real soon

Sweetcheeks: Your opinion is never worthless and I happen to think it's worth much more than two cents!

;)

I'm glad to hear you're writing again. I tried to a comment on your profile awhile back; but, it wouldn't let me! I must try again!

I bet Bugsy has an adorable full bark!

Did you happen to see a NOLA date on that 69 Eyes tour schedule? It's been a couple of years (I think) since they played here.

Anon616 said...

Ergo: Let us know when you post the pictures!

How's danger hand coming along with the car?

Anonymous said...

Thanks sugarplum. I have strong opinions about a lot of things, but I hope it doesn't offend anyone. That's just the way I am. Sorry about the comment thing though. I made my profile private a while back!

Ergo, awwww I can't wait to see pictures *squeals*

Actually, Bugsy's bark makes me laugh because it sounds kinda weird, lol.

Unfortunately, there's no NOLA date set yet. Right now they're in the process of having pre-sale tickets and VIP packages for the first eight or nine city dates. Usually these VIP packages comes with having a chance to meet the band. I'm hoping to do something like that when they come here.

nothing done to it, it drives fine as it is, it'll be done up over a few years

Anon616 said...

Okay, I must do this in defense of art!

~~~It's not the first time it's been done/used~~~

And, I've seen much worse!

I still love ya'll and respect each of your individual tastes in art.

Anonymous said...

Wendy, that photo with the man in the suit with blood reminds me of Christian Bale in American Psycho lol!

ergoproxy said...

yeah I said it's not the first time it's been done
and like I said it isn't a style I personally like
but while you can't censor art, people will all have their opinions
and it has been said that one of the prime purposes of art is to elicit emotion in the viewer, good and bad.

Images like that, though, are not ones I wish to look at
which is an emotion in itself

I don't know why they chose to do it, it's not something I would do as a photographer or a model.
But it is their choice, I will just choose not to view it

Sweetcheeks: Don't forget to teach Bugsy to howl!!!

Ergo: Well, he'll get it done!

And, on that note, I must run.

Oh no. I'm starting to rhyme again. I really, really better run!

Goodnight Sweetcheeks, Ergo, Elena, Martha, Mayo, SS, everyone!

Sweet dreams to one and all!!!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~
6/Wendy

Goodnight PJ!

Anon616 said...

LOL Sweetcheeks!!! Now that you mention it, it does! It was great catching up and chatting a bit with you. E~mail on the way, soon!

Ergo: "Dark" art is not for everyone. Whether it's music, movies or print art. You're absolutely correct. It's all a matter of personal taste and choice!

Goodnight again!

*blows night night kisses*

Anonymous said...

Ergo,

exactly. And now I added my two cents to it, lol.

Goodnight sugarplum, sweet dreams! Teaching Bugsy how to howl will be my next step in the process of having him be a real dog, lol.

I'm off to go read for a bit. Goodnight ergo, take care.

I'll take to you guys later, when I can.

Nighty night!

Wish you were here said...

Before I say hello to anyone, anon with the photo...It may be well done, it may be 'artistically' done, it looks fine for what it is, but would I put it on my wall? No. Art is a matter of opinion, and everyone's is different, but to me, no, it's not art, it's just two people recreating a moment in time in order to supposedly put it on a cover to sell something. I think she looks cold and unemotional the way she's not looking at him. Had there been emotion, my opinion may have been different, but I still wouldn't put it on my wall.

Elena: Music, art…if it doesn’t sell, well then it fails. Sad but true. It’s al about the money.

Are you referring to art made now? I just ask because many, many artists never ever used to receive the attention their work does now, and died penniless, but it's still deemed as art.

Wish you were here said...

Wendy, Ergo (glad you had a good time :)), Toujours, Elena, missed you all, lol, see you around sometime. Bleeding Chaos, hi *waves*.

Anons, Mayo, SS, anyone, this my morning, it's looking overcast and gloomy, hope yours all look good, wherever you may be.

Reading through a bit still. And thank you, Wendy, I have two weeks now, being positive about it :)

Wish you were here said...

Wow 4:46 nice way to start a new page, lol.

no one like liars or cheats, do they 5:00?

Is that a dig a 5:00, or 'Orkin Man', 'cause you know that's a joke, right?

ergoproxy said...

hello wish
nice to see you,
but I do think you are mixing up TJ and myself, she made eclairs and she was the one who went out last night, not me

I do believe elena would have been referring to art now too, hence the "way of the world". Money, instant gratification, etc, popular media makes it very different to the times of the artists of the past (though of course there are still a great many artists who don't seek the material and work because of the love of their art, temptation is much greater than it has ever been)

just had a beautiful Mediterranean chickpea and tomato cassoulet with pork chop
mmmmmmmmm

Wish you were here said...

Ergo, I'm sorry for the mix up, lol. Sometimes what my eyes are seeing and my fingers are typing don't want to interact properly. Fail.

I should think you're right, was just asking to be sure :)

What's the difference between a cassoulet and a casserole?

Wish you were here said...

I found this:

It is important to note that a cassoulet is NOT a casserole. A casserole is mainly an American dish that is cooked in a French pan. A cassoulet s a French dish usually cooked in a Dutch oven. Makes perfect sense right?

Um, yeah. That clears it right up, lol.

Mostly busy for a while. Blog, Ergo, anons, catch you later.

ergoproxy said...

a cassoulet is sort of a stew with white beans, but I used chick peas as I really like them, I sometimes use a 4 bean mix as well instead of just white beans, you generally saute bacon and onion, then add the tomatoes, beans, herbs and sausage (if you like) and let it cook slowly so the flavours develop,
It ends up quite thick and you vary it as you like
this time I used chorizo and chick peas with italian herbs and garlic and added corn kernels and peas, so not a traditional cassoulet (which is really just french for casserole) but based on it, I prefry the pork then put it in to cook with the stew for a half hour or so
very yummy with crusty bread

have a good day wish :]

Goodmorning!

Going to a family reunion today, so you know what that means: GOOD FOOD! And LOTS of it!
