3 weeks ago I got offered a job abroad, and since then I'm waiting for the workvisa. Knowing it can still get cancelled so not allowing any excitement or enthusiasm. And it's driven me slightly insane. But - in a week I will have an answer. If the answer is yes, I might be on a plane in a week already too. I'm all over the place now. I dunno if it's good or bad anymore.

Yours is a multiparty culture. In America there are only two parties, one right and good, the other unspeakably evil. There can be no compromise, no surrender. Kill or be killed.

Or so it seems from here.

(((APT))) Yes, our cultures are different. I have never heard of a politician's wife backing a different party. Of course, here, there really are only 2 parties. There are others, but the never get more than 2% of the vote (and I am being generous). The 2 parties hate each other. I never talk politics, anywhere. It's too heated. I am not even registered with a party, so they fight over me every election. I don't vote by party, I vote by candidate.

OH, and YES, you should be here!

Thanks (((CE)))...weights are difficult too. They took my pectoral muscles, and removed all the lymph nodes under my arms...so my arms swell up. I am FrankenWiki.

(((MUE))) sorry!

(((MKAC))) Your T is a genius.

(((GRANITE))) Just because I've missed you.
(((LOLA))) because you are starting a new chapter.
(((Ready)))(((Hanksta))) (((Squirrell))) (((lemon))) (((Critter))) (((Pbutton))) (((Ike))) (((BPA)))
and what the hell, while I am at it (((STOPDOG)))

We dont expect a candidate's partner to be standing next to them on the debate podium shaking their head. Make your own stand but dont just undermine a weaker relative's. There is anger here. Mayber there is right and justice and the American way, but there is ball-breaking. And I dont even particularly like mkac's son. Or republicans! But I dont think this was right. It's undermining and humiliating. It says my mother doesnt care about me. Maybe im overreacting And taking it personal. Its like the mafia saying, its just business.

You go too far, Hankster. Over and over with me, you go too far. You are obviously free to disagree with me, but you distort the facts and then make comparisons that are just insulting and over the top. I did not post where he works; I posted on FACEBOOK. I do not expect my children to agree with me politically and I do not expect to have to agree with them politically, so I was a little surprised by his reaction. I deleted the post but just wondered what others thought.

And comparing me posting on Facebook to the mafia "it's just business" attitude, which comes into play when they KILL PEOPLE -- really? I mean, really? Totally over the top. And where the **** do you get off saying you don't like my son? You don't even know my son.

1. I thought you said you posted on your son's boss's facebook page - now you are making it sound like you posted on your own page. Who is distorting facts?

2. I said that I didnt particularly like your son ONLY to emphasize that I wasnt taking his side because I particularly liked him or his political stance. Apparently subtlety is lost on you. Now THAT'S too far.

3. You're right, I don't have a feel for family ties. With our family it was all business, not personal. And it was all or nothing at all. Maybe you missed my post where my mother said she valued a 2 foot box of sheep manure over me.

4. I'm glad you deleted the post. But I'll refrain from commenting anymore. I know I said that before. Ill have to make sure this time. Sorry.

You said I posted where he worked. I did not. I posted on facebook; a comment in response to something that office posted. I did not post anything inflammatory.

[quote=hankster;3175761]2. I said that I didnt particularly like your son ONLY to emphasize that I wasnt taking his side because I particularly liked him or his political stance. Apparently subtlety is lost on you. Now THAT'S too far.[quote]

Seriously, you think me leaving out the word 'particularly' is the same as you comparing me to the mafia? Your thinking is seriously SERIOUSLY distorted. My point remains the same. You do not know my son. You do not have the right to comment about my son or my daughter; just about ME. Leave personal attacks on my kids like saying you do not particularly like them out of it.

[quote=hankster;3175761]3. You're right, I don't have a feel for family ties. With our family it was all business, not personal. And it was all or nothing at all. Maybe you missed my post where my mother said she valued a 2 foot box of sheep manure over me.[quote]

I am sorry for that, but it has nothing to do with me or my kids. Stop taking it out on me that your mother treated you like crap while I work really really ****ing hard at being a good parent and the contrast triggers you

No worries.... Get your ***** on, duke it out... It flares my own issues, as we all know we all have some, and arguing between people is a hard one for me. Ill just take a happy pill and keep on keeping on... Or avoid the couch til the flames die down. Although since I'm friendless in a new place all alone, ill probably just hang here til the bodies get cold! , I<3 you too!

Again this is not exactly clear or truthful, is it? You posted on facebook WHERE???

And I stood up for your son, despite his politics. That was the point and you know it. I was a better mother to him than you were at that point. Thats why youre so mad.

I just found out I'm going to go see Everclear. My inner child is over the moon. Who sings angry child music better than Everclear??

My personal faves:

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all okay
I laugh aloud so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go home

Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now..



I will never be safe
I will never be sane
I will always be weird inside
I will always be lame

Hankster, what's the deal? MKAC's family is not your family. You seem to think her posts about her family are about you. Several people have tried to tell you you're over the top.

Yeah I am over the top. A lot of my posts are. If some of you would venture out of this forum, you would see that. Colorful language is a reason to hate me or harass me? do I have to dumb it down?

This is not about mkacs family. I answered her post. A couple of other posters said pretty much the same thing as I did.

Honestly I dont understand what the problem is.
