I just got home from watching The Changeling and what a heart wrenching story. I knew I should have sat in the back where no one could see me cry but I think half the theater was about as torn up as I was. Being a true story made it all the more powerful and my heart feels heavy, I left choking back sobs knowing how devastated I would be if something of this nature ever happened to me and one of my children. It was truly heart breaking.
So my son and I have been home for a few hours after gorging ourselves at a families house for Thanksgiving dinner and he turns to me and says "what's for dinner mom?" ...........sighs

LOL .. gotta love em. X
Ahhh lol
LOL!!! After the food coma stops, you're always ready for more.
I'm so disappointed in myself, I fricking failed *pouts* and I studied so hard too. The first question totally threw me for a loop, I knew it but somehow the way it was worded didn't quite gel. It felt like High School all over again except I was an honor student and never failed anything back in the day. I feel sad, oh well, life goes on......

If you are talking about the "test from hell" on VR - don't worry about it. Took me more then one time. Tricky ass questions...hated it.
I hate that test!
Lol, that would be the one, tricky indeed :(
You'll get it next time baby. I know you did your best and you should be proud of yourself for giving it a go. I love you. *hugs you fiercely tight*
Man thattest is tuff indeed, i know how you feel better luck next time pandora
That test made me want to kick Cancer in the nuts...
and I, like you, am extremely good at tests.
Hang in there. You'll get it.
You can do it just stay at it! * hugs *
Keep going hon...*hugs*.
So I just got home from finally getting to watch The Dark Knight and I'm wondering what all the hullabaloo was about? Seriously, it wasn't that great. Yes Ledger played a very convincing Joker but it wasn't extraordinary in my opinion, he was the best Joker I have seen so far but a character as such is pretty well defined in my book, not a lot of depth there. It was a good movie but certainly not in my top 50.
COMMENTS
If you ever read the Dark Knight comic books...then you would know that Ledgers version of the Joker is on Mark with the real persona of The Joker.Bale isn't a very good Bruce Wayne/Batman but it was way better then Burtons Batman.
Well least i know not to waste my money renting it as i trust your judgement baby.
Hate. That word carries so much weight and yet I see so many throwing it around like it is nothing. I can honestly say that I do not hate anyone, I reserve that word for the child molesters and murderers of the world, the truly evil. Hate takes a lot of energy.
Oh yes, there are plenty that I may dislike or you might irritate me albeit briefly. Most people aren't that worthy of my time and to think that I may hate you, well, you truly think too much of yourself. But anyone can see that, people that are full of self importance stand out like a sore thumb.
I have to wonder at the people that incur such an emotion from others. Does it really matter that much? Are they truly worth the energy that you are expending? More often than not, I think not....
Uhmm yeah, some of us do care what we are rated and I'll tell you why. I know that many feel the same way as I do. My profile wasn't created overnight, I suck at html and coding so I had to do a lot of homework and pester a few knowledgeable friends. The information I have posted is personal, I try and share things about me that aren't just the basics and so that you can leave my page with a feeling as to who I am. I put a lot of thought and time into it and change it out every so often. And while yes this is just a game my profile is a personal reflection not an rpg and therefore my rating matters to me.
So you can take your dice and shove them up your ass!
COMMENTS
Your words are very true it is a personal reflection of the person that has created the profile or should be.
Ratings probably would not be so important if it was not such a relfection on the persn that worked hard to put themself into the profile.
It is not about being an attention seeker or ratings drama queen or whatever the phrases are that some are throwing aruond.
It is all about the real effort that went into making your profile say this is me and i want to be judged more fairly than you have done.
I hate when I see a great profile, like yours, and give it a ten. Then you go to the new profile and it has one line of "U can ask and i might tell" and its been rated 30 times and has a 9.98 score. Really- rating on this site is a joke to most. And that is sad for those, like you, who put time into it.
Just my two cents.
:)
There is a part of you that is so like me it's scary..lmao.
I get what you're sayin', and you know I have nothing but respect for you, buuuuut, I think that the whole rating thing is ridiculous.
I mean, I put heaps of effort into my work and my profile, and people still give me twos and threes. I choose to take it more as a compliment. Constructive criticism, y'know? I know I'm not perfect, so why should people rate me a ten?
And then, of course, there's the fact that all ratings are valid from one to ten. I don't think any of us reeeeeeeally have a right to gripe about what someone gives us. I mean, sure, common decency says that you should rate a profile that deserves a good rate a good rate, but there are no rules for that. It's not really hurting anyone.
^_^
I'm not breaking any rules.
If you want someone to give you nothing but tens then go to vampirefreaks.com where what I do is against the rules. :)
Cancer created this system for a reason and I would never disrespect him and say that it is ridiculous, it has merit.
Bubbles I never said you were breaking any rules did I? But your rating system is insulting and I have a right to speak my mind.
I hear you.
Most of us do work hard on our profile and that's why we get upset over a rating. It's not the numbers that count, but the meaning behind the numbers.
Some people obviously don't care, and whatever, that's their deal, and that's why if somebody rates me lower than a 9 or 10, I'll go to their page and I'll rate them by their own rating system.
You'd be amazed at how many people get pissed over it!
I went and did my first Christmas shopping tonight. Uggggh. I remember the days when shopping for an 8 yr. old was relatively cheap. I bought 2 items tonight that he wanted and it cost me about $230. I used to be able to buy ALL my kids presents for that much. Damn, it takes all the fun out of it. For me anyways, ouch. I have a lot more to go. And yes, I gave him the "its not what you get but ......." message. *sighs*
COMMENTS
But you didn't get my gift...
Go forth with great purpose shopper.. remember pace yourself, and keep the moral up.
Sorry Jay, Kat Von D was sold out lol.....
part of my journal entry about land of too plenty would entail the amount that things cost that kids want these days possibly.
Yea, they were the good ole days lol
You are such a lap dog. What? Do you think she's going to throw you a doggy treat every time you go barking "look lookie, what pandora wrote about you" *rolls eyes*, you are sooooo pathetic and so obvious. YOU need to get a life and stop hanging on her coattails. You try so hard to appear "cool" when you are so obviously a failure. Go back to your kennel and stay there loser............
COMMENTS
who me?
NO silly............think about it....
who?
To drink or not to drink, hmmmm it's been a not so very nice week and I feel rather at odds today. Where do they all come from I wonder and why hasn't someone killed them yet? Well, my son Justin and I had a lovely day together all the same, we went and saw Madagascar 2 together as is our weekend ritual to catch a movie together, my 8 yr. old date and he ain't cheap lol. But still I feel depressed, not pleased and certainly not satisfied with this thing called my life........
It's official, my kitty needs to go to CNA, thats Cat Nip Anonymous for those of you not in the know. He's been a bad bad putty tat.......now, caps or de-claw?
It has come to my attention that a certain PROCURATOR has rated almost all of the 20 movies I submitted to the sci-fi section with 1's......rather unbecoming behavior for someone in a staff position and looks personal too.....*who pissed in your cornflakes?* tsk tsk tsk......
COMMENTS
Lol...maybe they're just "anti theatrical performance".
It would be a very rare thing for Vampire Rave...theatrical performance seems to be a hobby here..but ya truly never know.
Take heart..it's a rating;) It will neither make you or break you..and if someone doesn't rent the movie you submitted because of it's VR rating...it's their loss.
If it helps...I rate everything in the database a 10...
I will counteract that one!!!
*frolics off to spread flowers and sunshine to the Sci-Fi section..whistling zippedy doo dah outta my ass the entire way*
:)
Oh it's not the rating but rather the fact that 1's look rather personal but ehhhh life goes on...........
What's personal is that you would take a 1 that many people get and accuse me of being nasty to you.
And the nice conversations we've had mean nothing in light of this? I see...
Not true, they did mean something and you got it wrong about the "ass kissing" why would I kiss your ass? What I said to you in previous conversations was sincere and still is.
Funny looked like mine were the only entries to get the coveted 1's, and I had rated the whole thing, sorry my entries "bore" you.
There you go again, twisting my words. I can't imagine knowing what to believe from you. You are so quick to accuse me and say nasty things about me and so who can blame me for wondering if your nice moments are just to trick me?
I'm done with it then.
*sighs* misconstrued yet again, and apparently misunderstood on both of our sides......
so be it....
but my dear...doi know, the admins hold some of the biggest hypocrites here, and true...
"I am a mutherfucking juggalette and you best respect me." HAHAHAHA!!!!! yeah uhuh, that really gets my respect bah..........you people bore me....

Identity abuse.. I remember back in the day when we actually had a time for make-believe, and we were even imaginative about it. Now it is all about the popular fad identity accessories.
I am a Juggalo, Vampire Psychic, Ninja.. but they would all be misspelled by todays on-line youth.
Im a human with problems and never have time for anything.They need to find a life and stop following morons.
I'd be like..."And with that sentence, not only have I lost a little more of my sanity...but also all my respect for you."
hahaha.
Sometimes the fastest way for someone to lose my respect is to think it is something they should automatically get just because of their position or because of what they call themself.
I can juggle...
...and i can juggle low.
i don't get the whole ICP thing and how it relates to vampires, myself.
they represent a certain level of stupidity, but their fans...oy to the vey.
hahaha...
he said "oy to the vey"
It's all I can do to hold my tongue right now, I can't remember being this pissed in a very long time....you've got some nerve bitch, you barely arrive on this site and you have the audacity to think you can go around talking trash about some of the portfolios around here and have the gall to tell us how it should be done when yours is about the worse I've seen. You can wait for fucking forever before I feel the need to ask for your advice, who in the hell do you think you are.............get off your fucking high horse, speaking of horses.....the resemblance is uncanny.....
