don't you hate it when definitions use the word they're defining in the actual definition?

I keep responding to ridiculous posts for no reason.

Colleen (and others)- you are overanalyzing words. I find there is a difference- I explained why. Accept it or don't.
I back up my posts. You may not agree but that does not mean I am wrong.


The end.

Ok... I think I know what she's saying.

When my grandfather died, it was no surprise. He'd been bed-ridden for 6 or 7 years. However, it was still a shock when I found out, and took me several weeks to deal with the fact that he was indeed gone.

Anyway...

I had a gay cousin but it was the straight one that shocked and surprised me. I would have never expected him to be straight. I have nothing against straight cousins but it was hard for me to handle.

So to speak: it was emotionally shocking though intellectually not surprising?

was your grandfather gay, dreamer?

Wow DD! That was good.

"I keep responding to ridiculous posts for no reason"

Yes you do. Now - just stop. And go away.

I was very surprised to learn that my sister was straight. I just assumed that she was gay.

I wasn't surprised that this thread took a turn for the worse...

...but I was SHOCKED that doodle is a bad dresser.

I was very shocked to find out that my white trash cousin who keeps getting women pregnant had a Prince Albert.

If that counts for anything.

Our family maid came out as a lesbian and it shocked me to the core. She had the most amazing, mayonnaisse treated curly hair.
I loved her dearly except when she would pass wet gas whilst dusting my room.

What did she look for in a gay man?

That's because you are just as big a prolific idiot yourself geek. You and Q should start up a support group at the kiddie table and leave the adults alone.

There are a few people in this thread who are definitely getting a dictionary/thesaurus combo pack in their stockings this year.


ETA: Gotta love the ill-timed typos.

Me oh my, do tell me, is there any goddamn reason to become half as nasty as you do now? This thread is a shame.

[etoile]

Posted: 8/30/06 at 5:35pm

You're correct it is a shame, and it started with the very first post.

[cheezedoodle]

Posted: 8/30/06 at 5:37pm

Maybe not Franklin - but honestly. Has she even considered how hard it must have been for her cousin to even come out to his mother? Probably not. How about the fact that he was in therapy trying to cope before hand? And then she gets the info third hand no less, and comes here to start a "I don't know how I feel about this" thread? Maybe someone should think about joining her cousin in therapy - and by the by - she in no way inferred in the original post that she wanted advice from anyone who went through the same thing, and posting let the attacks begin set herself up right there.

Perhaps Q is shocked because her cousin didn't tell HER directly. She had to hear it through some gossip mill at the dentist office. Perhaps she is uncomfortable because since her cousin (who she suspected was gay, and is a huge Broadway/Musical fan like herself)didn't tell her personally is she supposed to act like she doesn't know he's gay next time they go see Ave. Q? And when they start the song "If you were gay" is she supposed to nudge him and nod knowingly?
I could see how this could be very, very uncomfortable for a straight girl.

Posted: 8/30/06 at 5:39pm

To be fair Sueleen - I did ask Q that twice. She did not respond to me.
