The Gunslinger Syndrome and the Curse of the D-ego

Nice hug, thanks.



I still like Palin. I'm more classic liberal with a heavy dose of anarchism.

I like sanders because he's honest. Not big into socialism though.

And I do get a little tired of myself.

(wouldn't you? )

You could go out in a blaze of fire and spectacle and get yourself banned. Your account is locked and if you return, you've got to start from scratch.

The problem with that is that no-one would ever see the epic post that got me tossed!

Interesting. If you really want a new start, I'll respect that w/your posts from now on. But what happens if you drift back into old habits?

I definitely believe in people getting multiple chances & having opportunities to change. But I also have good people around me who "put me in check" when I deviate from my new course.

Thanks for posting. I often rely on my foes and adversaries to keep me in check. they're often the most honest critics.

Hmm do you really want honesty?

Very true. I don't know you well enough to play that role, but I'm sure there are other ATSers who can do it. Either way, cheers for the new direction!

My best friend is an ex-girlfriend and she & my Mom keep me in check the most. lol And friends from high school & college never hesitate to remind me of who I used to be & how much I've changed since then. And newer friends usually have a hard time accepting who I used to be (not "hard time" as in "What?! I hate you now!", but more like "pssh yeah right...").

If this was the Oscars the band would have started playing by now.

You won't know me because I do not post very often, I lurk a lot though. You are one of my favorites. Please don't go away forever.

I didn't realize until today, (9/20), that you were gone. So I went looking for you and read this thread.

You add a lot to ATS so please come back.

Fair play for your honesty I suppose... I'll just say that.
Can't be arsed to give you any stick really but yeah... nice one.

Time to get back in the saddle!

What the hell is going on!?!!

Will somebody pick the rabbit up off the crapper, that pity pot is going to leave a pretty nasty ring on his keester. I take a few months off to live a little in the real world and next thing I know beezzer's cheese slides right off its cracker and goes off the deep end.

WTH?

I blame him and everyone else, You don't let the Rabbits run loose in the park. They're not cuddly, they're temperamental, sensitive and shoot from the hip when left alone with a bottle of fire water.

beezz, don't give a crap what people think, Come out swinging and keep the fists flying bro.....

The Velveteen one hasn't been here since January 6th. I hope he didn't fall in.

miss your input around here beezzer.

Miss you beezer-

Damn it. I hope you are here somewhere.

We go through different stages and phases of experience, we change, and it is rather hard to do that when those around you have become accustomed to expect certain behaviors from you.

I don't like getting a lot of attention, anywhere. I hate when people start to make remarks about me (even positive ones) that indicate they have been noticing me and forming an idea of me- that I stick out in their mind somehow.
I will often run from that immediately either avoiding that person/place, or make an effort to change my behavior radically right then. That often means, as soon as someone gives me a compliment, I suddenly act like a total jerk.

Now, some people have hypothesized that this is because I have a fear of success, fear of being loved, low self esteem.
For me the truth is that the regard of other seems like a sneaky trap to me. As soon as people have expectations, that is fine.... as long as you are in that phase. But time always come when that skin gets small and it is time to break out, and that's where the ideas people have about who you are suddenly restrain and block the whole process!

Very few people can look at others without establishing a firm expectation of them and their character. (but if you find one, cherish them as a rare gem!).

I often just get up and go to a different environment, with new people.

Though it is possible to get others to see your changes and drop the old image, and in some ways it can be great because they don't forget the old- they retain it as one of your potentials, not "who you are".
But it takes a very long time, and can mean a lot of frustration as you have to accept being misunderstood and your words deformed. I have a hard time sticking in long enough with that.

Damn, just saw this is an old post! Oh well, it was fun to contemplate the topic for a moment!

Beezzer you need new batteries bunny www.bing.com...
