Haha definitely. Maybe we can get vrede to go too....
Maybe a hike and then a beer?
Definitely man, I'm down. We'll have to figure out sometime/someplace to go. I'll PM you sometime or vice versa.
You aren't doing it wrong if no one knows what you are doing.

That's terrible. Sorry you had to go through that, glad everything is working out for you now.

I can identify with that. Mrs.B was diagnosed with MS 4 years before I retired, and lives with constant pain. Some days a pain killer will give her a few hours of relief and we take advantage of those times to go shopping together or visit her Mom in the nursing home. Trips are out of the question, whether flying or driving, so our vacations at any distance from home is out of the question.
This is not how I envisioned spending the rest of our lives together......
That's also terrible and I'm sorry both you two have to go through that, but good on you, you seem like an alright dude. We can grab some bud lights sometime too if you want.

I had to look that one up......I don't think so. You're obsessively fantasizing about me again.
Don't feel bad, I had to look that one up too!
Hey, they share your stance on homosexuals, you have more in common with them than you do atheists. I see you wearing a capirote before wearing a FSM necklace. :-P

Sorry about your first wife; that must have been tough. Glad to know number three is the charm, though. I myself could never figure out how you stop loving someone....it's been like an anchor around my neck.

Sorry to hear of Mrs. B's condition. I'm sure it's hard to deal with for her and you. Maybe she can try medical pot unless she's totally against that; I know it helps some folks. My mom had pot pills for her cancer before she died.

You don't have to stop loving her - just accept that she's gone. Whether dead or on to someone else. She's gone. She was a big part of your life, she's a (hopefully) wonderful memory. But she's gone. Time to move on. Like anything else - loss of limb, loss of mobility, loss of job. Gotta move on.
Sorry to hear about your wife, Mr.B. I can understand why you would be sensitive to comments about her - even though we all considered her fictional. You made her real to me, and I'll have no more comments about the fictional "Mrs.B." Best wishes to you both.

Yeah, thanks. It's like George Thorogood says "you got to lose; you can't win all the time. I know pretty baby, I see trouble comin' down the line."

Thank you. I said once before I believe there's something hidden there somewhere.

Nothing hidden, Mr.B. You just have a hard time believing that a liberal non-religious elitist redneck-prejudiced lawyer from the Northeast and Florida can be a decent human being. You might be surprised if you look around. Happy New Year!

Just the other day at Ingle's I happened to notice an established and practicing redneck. He was leaving the parking lot in his old Ford truck that had at least two different colors on different doors and fenders and sounded as if he'd either removed his mufflers or else beat the hell out of them until they surrendered. The large (about 3' X 5' I would say) Rebel flag flapping in the breeze from a makeshift pole mounted in the truck bed was precious....I never considered denying him the right to be a dubmass but I did have a chuckle at his expense.

Re: "How to Troll Forums with a Limited Vocabulary"...page 6
Is your name O Really? I asked him the question by replying to his post. I knew what your hateful, twisted, accusatory spin would be.
You've tainted any notion of a reasonable, clear-headed answer.
