<< Seems to me like bentwookie would fit more of the category "bored of the forums so post a fake story and watch people talk about it" >>

That category seems to be growing by leaps and bounds. Girlfriends, boyfriends, roommates, etc...people here post shiit just to watch others jump thru hoops. What's even worse...far worse...is that when it's revealed that the story/post is a lie people will still offer advice and defend the poster against others calling bullshiit. It's like they'll refuse to accept that it's bullshiit so that they can keep participating in the thread or something.

I think that in those cases it's usually more of a Skoorb effect than people 'refusing to accept that it's bullsh|t'. They just read the first post and not the rest of the thread.

help I am someone's biotch!!!



ahh you guys warm the cockles of my heart, didn't know you cared...sorry for not updating but I had a slight concussion and was throwing up all day yesterday..and a migrane like a sob.

turns out the cop knew both my neighbors..one from high school the other from his business, and the orig. rest owner knows my brother...I guess that what you get living in a small town. We all went back to his party and got drunk, I actually left early cause I was feeling faint. turns out the guy that was riding the scooter was the one that pushed me...I guess he works for the orig owner...he apoligized for the noise and offered free meals at his restuaraunt..
when i was at his party he showed off all his souped up cars..he has like 6 muscle cars and even a freakin porche carrera just sitting in his back yard..I think it's hot (who the fvck would let a porsche just sit there?) anyway he has a pool so I need to get in good with him, especially with this blazin heat we have been having. His wife is "britney spears" looking just without the butt. They seem cool, but we'll see if things change. must get offline can't focus.

That update sounds weak! Booooooooooooooooooooooo!

The guy gets hit with a pole while riding a scooter and you all go back and party together? Hmmmmmm.....sounds a little suspect if you ask me.

If I go to jail it will be the worldcom way...


and my neighbor didn't hit the guy but hit the scooter,bent the handlebar. They got in a shoving matching and the dogs came runnin. Can't we all get along? The guy riding the scooter was still pissed but am told is a total asshole when he drinks..I think I will get him that t-shirt that says, "Instant asshole,just add alcohol"

My GF thinks I shouldn't be friends with him and should press charges, I have medical insur. but hate going to the hospital..man should have just stayed in the house.

It's called the "Real World" boys and girls. Sorry if it doesn't suit your TV based view of the world! :p

I know exactly where bentwookie is coming from. You have to live with these people, even after they pay for their mistakes. If they hold a grudge, it could make your life miserable for years! Personally, I made peace with the nut case next door, and I'm glad I did, though my wife isn't happy about it. Like I said, you have to live with these people, and I'd rather have it be smooth sailing than all this animosity and such. Not to mention, I get to use the whole driveway again! bentwookie can look forward to free meals and swimming with the hot MILF!
