Hey Tom~

Geez, I am always amazed when someone brings the issue of 'number of posts' up because i never pay attention. Just like i wasn't paying attention to this.
At least you haven't lost your sense of humour :roll: . So, the rules of logic have it that you were waiting with baited breath for your 1000th.

Oh, dear, how clumsy of me ~ I completely forgot to mention on that list above that I may also decided to post-stalk you, Mmmmm ~ just as a matter of course :evil: :wink: .
You may decide, that way, that all of this simply isn't worth it....that simply ignoring is the better plan.

Liz~

I have not read a word in your last two word anvils (i skim the shorter ones). I hope you got it out of your system. You certainly are not speaking to me. Hopefully someone is 'enjoying' your efforts.

So, you think you are a mind reader? Read this...

Guess what? Doooooon't belieeeeeeve yoooooooouuuuuu :wink: .

Sorta like the lie that you weren't going to read any more of my postings, but did. And commented, as well.

Sorta like the lie that you 'knew' all along that Heathcliffe wasn't r.e.a.l.

Sorta like ~ after one lie, who keeps count?

Of course, the upside of that latest lie is that if you pretend to not be reading me, perhaps, you won't respond [and, hopefully, eventually even speak, to me], either. That can only be a good thing 8) ~ the goal, in fact :D .

How could you possibly be telling the truth here, regarding numbers of posts, when your initial accusations were of my flooding the Forum. And, then, Greg ran the numbers and revealed that [oh my gosh :shock: ], one of your buddies at that time, had similar ones.


Nothing's out of my system, but thanks for your concern. There's plenty more where that came from. Ridiculousness will be met with ridiculousness [or, as my latest posts suggests ~ may even initiate ridiculousness] every time.

Sick of it, yet? If not, there's plenty of time.

More "Read this..."s of that silent nature will be most welcome from you. I can rename you Laurie of Mutithonous Heights."

You keep limping over that scratch in your record. Stand up. Walk past it. Get beyond. Stop with your pitiful, bleeding heart mantra. I have no problems with the authors. I have a problem with you. You are the only one begging to have something/anything ruined. They have done nothing. I wouldn't consider ruining anything for them. Please quit trying to body block them from your "sky is falling! the sky is falling!" fears. Be accountable for your own fears. Own them. Don't project them onto the innocent authors. You, on the other hand, are not innocent. So keep your fears to yourself. And, for gawd's sake, wailing and playing pitiful on behalf of the authors is no more attractive than wailing and playing pitiful on behalf of yourself. So, leave them out of it. They've done nothing to me, and probably done nothing to you, either.

What a sad way to use #1000...

Congrats though, Laurie.

Whoops, sorry, didn't see you there, Tom. Well, you obviously found her.

You know, it's all about choices, isn't it, Laurie? Shoulda kept your eye on the ball. You were told. Better luck on #2000. [Not that I'm counting, of course.]

Actually, I think acting pitiful on your #1000 is rather fitting. At least for the last, upwards to 250 of the 1000.

Lizzy,

the only person you're insulting right now is the Elizabeth that once posted to this forum. Your current level is very starfishy...

Oh, that very same Elizabeth is still posting, elsewhere, on the Forum. If you're interested in seeing the difference, go there.

If you're so blinded by the girl, the helpless, hapless one, that you always feel most compelled to enter in ~ when you can muster something negative toward me ~ then please join the ranks of the girl, in saying nothing, at all. I'm not interested.

As for the current schitt, I'm fed up with it. Now, that, my dear Watson, is a statement of due, huge proportions. If you don't like it, back out. If you want to really do some good ~ corral the wild boar loose in these parts....and it's not me. If you want to think it is, well, no love lost there, either.

As one might say,
Ciao.

To Byron, in the peanut gallery, in charge of garnering a mob ~ See above. Or refer back to your grocery list, and get some more coupons for addressing the nature of your own, inane, and clearly, intentionally disrespectful, interrupting 'comment,' following my sincere posting to Heathcliffe in another thread. Look in the mirror, chum, before you come "Hear! Hear!"ing here.

Ciao to you, too. Or, Ex-Lax, as you prefer.

Elizabeth, I know how to act decent. I know how to act funny. I know how to act serious. I know how to respect the integrity of others. I know how to keep my mouth shut. I know when a friend has painted herself into a corner. I know that you have no idea at all, of how hurtful your last remarks to me were.

There has been all out war going on in this forum. Unfortunately, like all wars, and you of all people are fully aware of this, it is those who are in the line of fire, on the sidelines, in the wrong place at the wrong time, who only want to stop it, lighten the mood, divert attention away from the fighting, lower the temperature, cool the heat of the battle, that as often as not, get an earful of someone else's bullets.

Who is Heathcliff(e)? Not one person here knows.
But since that character has appeared in this Forum; long-lasting, meaningful, worthy, trusted, close, wonderful friendships have been, and are being, shattered to pieces.

Elizabeth, I am the same person I always was. I am not an ogre. I am not a psychopath. I am not some maniac, hell bent on destruction. I am me. I am in pain every day of my life. Elizabeth, you know that!! You have hurt me.

Thank you Heathcliff(e). Yet another notch on your twisted little stick. Whoever you are Heathcliff(e), do the decent thing.

Well, Byron ~ I'm going to have to see what you've said on the other thread before I say anything else. It seems, honestly, to me at this point, that Victim Role Playing has become all-too-fashionable in these parts. Heathcliffe is not the source. Do NOT blame Heathcliffe. People have choices and make them every day. You chose to join the ranks of those ridiculing me for the tenderness I chose to extend ~ right or wrong.

You have chosen to denigrate, still another, serious response I gave to Heathcliffe. What right do YOU have to jump in there and denigrate!?! But, that's okay, isn't it, Byron. Calling you on it, isn't.

This whole bizarre chain of events ACTUALLY started when your Victim #1 in Victim #1 line interrupted my very sincere, comments regarding Hurricane Katrina [it went from there to my genuine concerns about Squidgy and ridiculing me for that and the actions I took].....and pronounced that I am only happy when self-flagellating ~ and has herself been self-flagellating ever since! Whining, crying, wailing, etc. ad nauseum. However, because you're taken in by it [as you presume me to be by Heathcliffe] is not my problem.

Now, you want to join the ranks of saying that I've painted myself into a corner. I'm not in a corner, Byron. I'm right out here ~ dead center in the firing field ~ getting shot at left and right, from character attacks to personality attacks to any other kind of attack. I have NOT wailed for anyone's help in defending myself, however. I can do that.

Now, it would seem the most appropriate thing to do would be for me to simply claim "The Beast" [you know, that thing we all have] or "The Shadow Self" [you know, that thing we all have] ~ and then Laurie can pick herself up off the floor and know that it was all, just a natural event. The rest of the whomevers can trail behind, and you can all have coffee.

However, I won't be doing that, because I take responsibility for my actions, and for what I say. I know where they came from. I know what was said to trigger each response of mine. I'll be happy to do a full RECAP, if it will help you in your confusion. I can make a list ~ things said to Elizabeth; things Elizabeth said. It's not that complicated, but will take some time, when I have some.

I haven't painted myself into a corner, at all. I've finally gotten sick of all this beyond measure. In one way or another, Laurie has consistently dug and dug and dug with her snippy, condescending, sarcastic, and insulting comments to and about me, until she finally reached my "Shadow Self" ~ so, in your admonitions, there is a glaring absence; in your sympathy and hugs, there is a glaring absence. NO. I am not asking or suggesting a hug.

I AM going to continue this battle, this war, this whatever you want to call it, until this girl backs off and ignores me. That's all I desire. She doesn't need to leave. Just don't speak to or about me. That's it. She can even join in on threads where I am and express her own opinions [a privilege she doesn't seem to want to extend in my direction, but that's okay, because I'm still self-directing and don't need it ~ however, for consistency's sake, she really oughtta] ~ just leave me out of it.

After dealing with her aggressiveness, in all manner and form, I'm over it. It takes a lot ~ a whole lot ~ for me to reach this point, but I'm here, and me and my "Shadow Self" are finally taking the offense in all of this. Perhaps, it will make a difference.

If you're looking for any apologies from me, you're looking in the wrong place.

Now, I need to leave and go pick up a dear friend from the hospital [a situation that really causes pain in my life], so I don't even have time to read the response I see you've given in the Heathcliffe thread.

Some men just really like the poor, pitiful types who play on their emotions and make them feel big and strong [their rescuer, their protector, their hero] in the process. I don't know if that's you, but I know that these peanut gallery entries from you and Tom are lopsided to a rather unbelievable degree, in the scheme of things. Once the support is garnered, the cavalier attitude emerges again regarding this tragic situation that you feel has occurred with long-term friendships, and despite the 'damaging' of them. What a caring person you're throwing your support behind. You are the one being manipulated, but you can't or refuse to see it.

Later. I have real-life pain to deal with and be there to help and comfort, someone who really is a victim [generally-terminal illness], and really does need it.

Hello Byron ~

I've added some [not much] to the last, two paragraphs in my latest posting here.

I'm back for just a few minutes, but have to go back out. I've read your message over on the other thread. Nothing of relevance. No humour that I can see. Moreso, I'm questioning what the negativity was that you saw going on there, that your 'humour' was required to be in attendance, to counteract it. The last three postings were positive in nature, an exchange between three people ~ none of which were you. In other words, I don't buy it. Not even on sale.
I'm glad to see you here, Heathcliffe. As Helven's visits here really are infrequent, I'll let her know there's a "thank you" waiting here from you. She'll appreciate it.

It sounds like things are still improving for you. I'm glad to hear that. I also hope you'll stick around and enter in.

~ Lizzy

Byron ~ You and I clearly have different definitions of friendship. None of this can be reconciled with mine. These are not the words of friendship. I've stayed in your home. I washed up the dishes, several times, not knowing it was your son's responsibility. I made up my bed before parting. I was respectful to your home in every way I could think of to be at the time. You have neither e-mailed or PM'd me in the course of any of this, or even much at all, before that, to express support, to express your concern of any kind, to say hello, or to ask how I am feeling; in short, to discuss it, or anything else, at all.

In fact, I do not discuss it. When people PM me, I respond as if none of this is occurring. Their PMs are indication enough that their opinions have not been altered by any of these gross attempts to invalidate who I am and what I'm about. I do not look for or seek allies for commiseration behind the scenes. So, whatever you do, do not think to PM me now ~ that would only tick me off......that too-little, too-late, contrived thing.

The reality is that you do not know or recognize a r.e.a.l., and a s.e.r.i.o.u.s., Schitt Stirrer, when you're staring them right in the face. I would not be surprized to learn that Laurie is being goaded on, as well, from being the curtain. If not, then I guess she just gets to take all the credit herself.

As for me, do I like interacting on an all-out level of aggression, as I'm currently prepared to do? No. Do I have the capability for doing it? Yes. That "Shadow Self" is such a grand, all-encompassing excuse, isn't it!?! All I need do is claim it, or The Beast; :lol: ; and go on with my insults and cruelty. All will be viewed in context and immediately forgiven. After all, it's only her "Shadow Self" :lol: ; it's only her "Beast" :lol: . How marvelous. I guess I should've invoked them sooner, so that your girl would really have had something to cry about, and proclaim her need for "a hug" :cry: .

I am glad to see that the Berlin committee, by popular demand, acted to not indulge her self-pity ploy, and pushed her back out there, to fulfill the responsibilities that she agreed to. It would have been regrettable had they co-opted and engaged in her games.

This public pronouncement and claim of 'friendship,' as well as hurt feelings [after doing your grocery list and shouting "hear! hear!" after someone has criticized me], along with the previous postings, and conjunct a total absence of any other form or nature of contact, does not constitute the phenomenon known as friendship. These are not the actions of friendship.

In fact, you insult my intelligence and offend my sensibilities to even speak in these terms. This is not the arm of friendship.

In contrast to your behaviour, there is this scenario, which did occur, to consider. A person, where long-term friendship, or friendship of any kind, were in place, contacted me privately. They were not concerned with whether I was right or whether I was wrong. They were simply concerned about my feelings. It reminded me very much of the Rumi quote that Sandra has for her signature. The words were spoken behind the scenes, so there was clearly no hidden agenda, in any direction. This is the arm of friendship.

I'm sorry you don't know the difference.
