reply to post by Bobaganoosh


pics or you are not real!

gotta have an ear off center or a hairlip or

obese by the new yardstick.

i have friends in wheel chairs and some living in assisted housing, lived with me too till they passed away.

i am a sinner. as good as i think i am i am still a sinner.

everyday i try to be a better person. if it takes pissin some people off then so be it! lol!!!

you can find my CV online if you're clever enough.

lol Im deep in my own mind, but sometimes I come out to play.

Funny reading though, seems we have many folks here that prefer their peace of mind and quiet time. I guess we old hippies are tired! We do think in peace though, so I guess we will be the ascendents perhaps? lol Im old, wasnt that the topic kind of?

Some say I am a di%k, Some say I am cool.....

Mostly people like me, or I think anyways....In real life anyways, on ATS I think that most dislike me

Loner, but with refined social skills. Collaborator, as long as there aren't too many restrictions.
Old Hippie, disabled, younger wife (3rd time's the charm), pack of dogs, locked gated posted homestead.
"I don't have a front yard I have a free fire zone between the gate and the house"
Could be a staunch ally - could be your worst nightmare when angered.

I'm a normal 16 year old. Well, normal despite my intrestin all this. It started with aliens when i was 8. It gradually turned into me wondering who was covering up alien encounters that led me to the Illuminati and everything else I research today. I spend my late nights reading everything I can and figuring out what is fact and what is not. We cannot be afraid to have questions about everything.

I'm a 28 year old, with a wife, 2 kids, 3 dogs and 2 cats.

Used to work too much 'til I quit.

I spend the majority of time at home, I enjoy being with my family. I have been called an a$$hole plenty of times, but I just call it like it is. There's too much sugar coating nowadays and I can't sugar coat anything. Could be a flaw, but I think it's positive.

Finishing up a photography course as we speak, just finished web design and digital design, and I am going back to university for astrophysics. I enjoy patterns, something about them soothes me.

I am a journeyman in two trades and ended up disliking them both, they were strictly for the cash, now, I want to do something I enjoy.

I think I'm normal...but, what truly is normal?

The last thing I wrote in my post was "Funny..."

Please reflect on it, as I was doing when I wrote that very word.

As I was posting what I felt about myself, I had a realization.

What I am in real life or my percieved reality, it makes me bitter and hateful. Everything that I hold back that I feel, I do so to propel myself through the world as I see fit. Does it make me fake or false? Am I entitled to be two people?

I come home and vent and express the anger I feel toward the way of the world. My apologies to all of you for propagating my anger and frustration. I get it out online rather than subjecting my wife to the rantings of a madman.

I resent that I have to close off some of myself to carry my way through life. I need to be "that guy" so that I can gain the respect and cooperation of my fellow humans to carry out a task, that is all but meaningless in the grand scheme of things, and help them to survive this existance as well.

I am resentful because I know that there were simpler times than these. A time when I would feel comfortable bringing a child into the world and having a true normal existance.

Know that I too am working every second to make myself a better person. I am working to get past the anger, resentment and frustration so that I can share my experience with somebody that might benifit from it.

I have three names, the first meaning "warlike", the second meaning "handsome harmonious one" and the third meaning "Jehovah is my God". The happenstance of this is truly ironic as I was born a Gemini, and my fellow Gemini's can attest to the internal struggle we suffer. Ever the twins, two views on everything. One from the perspective of he who carries the bow and the other from the perspective of he who carries the lyre. There is great violence within me and there is great love. But my third name tells me my path. I must go the path of the good. No religious signifigance, just that my decisions have to ultimately reflect what is right.

Thank you fooks for calling me out, because I know that my prior post was somewhat generic.

If I can be typed than so can all of us. But only what we reveal of ourselves.

On my school reports I was described by one teacher as being "so laid back he's almost horizontal", and by another to "have a calming influence on those around him", By one friend I was described as a "social sedative". So I would say I was quite a relaxed person who tries not to take himself too seriously. Although I am a bit of a worrier, I'm not really content unless I have a worry. Good job there's lot's to worry about at the moment. Also possibly a bit indecisive, but still not sure about that.

I am so out there, man, most people would not even believe it.
I generally stay high as a kite though I don't do ANY drugs, don't drink.
I think a lot. More than most I think, lol, I even think in my sleep. I see connections in almost everything, some strong, some thin.
Somehow I stay functional. Don't do the dishes every day but at least get them the next. Cook every day. 1 dog, 2 cats, 5 chickens, 5 very tame fish in my little pond. Big firepit with a circle of sand cause we're all witches here man.

I manage to do what I have to do. Don't want much. Don't need much.
I've got one foot in this world,and one totally someplace else.
I read about science all the time, but I think about magick all the time.
I read about 5 books a week. I OD on words, media. To Gemini.
I have a good idea about what's going on, but I have no idea what's going on. That's the truth.

My house has a nice tended garden. Kitchen full of mandrakes growing in long, long pots.
Inside there's more electronic equipment than some small businesses have. none it new, doesn't have to be. Some re-purposed. We get into that.

I'm looking at a huge wall with a dragon on it. Lots of art here. Lots of books. Lots of electronics. It all makes me happy. It's more a nest than a typical house. We're crazy old birds I guess. Most likely crows.

Just a 6 day a week working 20 year old who played by the rules all his life till i started full time work and saw the world in a different light i never really belived the people at the top could take so much advantage of the people below them in a work place! Turns out my parents were right about that... as for conspiracy theories they've intrested me since i can remember.

26, cali guy, normal but can be to myself and it wont bother me much. occasionaly talk conspiracy but my real intrest lies more in the crypzoology and paranormal areas which at times i probably tend to talk a little too much about.

I will bite, cool topic...Well Id describe myself as a patriot, I served our country for 10 years, no regrets. Im a social person, I have a very dry condescending tone but I like to keep people guessing about me, I like to be cryptic and have been called that also. I also can spend time alone or with friends, I guess I am in complete balance with who I choose to surround myself with!

I'm the silent type. I don't speak unless I have something to say.

There are so many factors that contribute to my character. I grew up with my grandfather. I never had parents.
I've had many painful surgeries and almost died during one. People treat you different when they know your past.
So i've limited what I say and who I say it to.

I'm no different then anyone, other then i'm better at hiding things about myself.
I don't tell anyone anything about myself anymore, except maybe here and now with all of you.
A little anonymity helps.

A philosopher said: maybe humans are the consecuence of a terrible biological accident... his theory is not far from reality! (Thanks Carl Sagan).
So, for me, odd people are whose are not freaks, nerds, and geeks.

39 year old, single mother of two. Well, 3 actually as I am raising one that is not biologically mine.

Tin foil wearing conspiracy theorist all the way. Lived long enough to learn to trust no one. Spend entirely too much time on ATS.

I can live off the land. Know how to hunt, fish, and grow my own food. Have a huge heart that gets me in trouble. A lot! I am very outgoing around my friends. Not so much in the midst of strangers. Have very strong opinions and am NEVER wrong!

What 'type' of person are you

Im a mean old man with a heart of coal i dont like dogs and cats or any other animal i live in a small shack in the woods far away from people i keep to my self and i do not engage with people. When i speak its short and to the point no need for air in the conversation. I hunt and kill what I eat. I served (army) for 16yrs. I have one eye (left) 11 fingers and a crocked nose. I also wonder why am I single.

Sorry that was my evil twin Im a good hearted fun loving Georgia boy 38 single. Yes I love dogs served 16yrs work as a recovery agent for several major banks. So I have to be kind and understanding while being firm and assertive its hard telling some one they have lost their property and go home and sleep at night. I am morally conflicted at times, but its the job I chose. Did i mention single 6'2 245 brown and blue now I really do wonder why Im single.

Like most of em here that probably would never admit it.

A really screwed up one.
