Yep, look at the bright side,

You will probably end up a jaded icehole like the rest of us and things will be much easier and yet still fun. :cool:

or you will live a life of embarrassment and social pain and become a cat hoarder.

:aok

and..  have to withdraw my offer for comfort.. damn jealous mexican girlfriend isn't going for it...  something about my "eggs" and broke or cut or something... I don't know... just learning spanish..

I believe that John Milius had it partially right when he wrote, in his script for Conan the Barbarian:

"Conan's Father: For no one - no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts. This you can trust. [Points to sword] "

You have to learn at an early age that you are alone in the world, and that you should keep your money safe. But you can't even trust yourself; you might be drunk, or wrong, and in the long run your body will grow old and feeble and will betray you, and eventually it will kill you after making your feeble and senile. You can't trust your own mind.

You should never entrust anything you hold dear to another person, and you should always watch your back. I cannot give you a positive lesson because there aren't any. Things do not happen for a reason; there is no guiding intelligence to the universe; you will never see your dead parents again; creation was not created; and the universe is a big electromagnetic bubble that is gradually winding down.

some of us share the thought that there really is not much real need to lie about things in life, and it is all too easy to assume your morals will apply to the rest of society.

just remember that as a spieces humans are the most savage and selfish minded on the planet, thats why we pwned almost all other animals and took over most of the world and even parts of the moon.


took me a while to work out that trust is not something one gives away, more something that one must earn from another individual, yet still we all get fooled into giving trust away at times.


Golly-gee it Batty.... Ya took all the words right outta my mouth....



EDIT Falconwing was right on the money too

Falconwing pretty much sums it well.



Betty, first, try to use punctuation.  It helps others to better understand what exactly your thoughts are.

Also, would it kill you if you at least tried to spell a word or two correctly?:D



Merry Christmas Betty.:)

There appears to be a correlation between believing Iceman and not using capitals, using punctuation improperly and awful grammar in general.

Must be an eskimo thing.



Lots of people seem to be giving advice in this thread.  Here's something I remember as a kid.  A frog once said this:


Here's some simple advice:  Always be yourself.
Never take yourself too seriously.  And beware of
advice from experts, pigs and members of Parliament.

-Kermit


Then again, he also said this:


I have a lot of great memories from the swamp.  I
remember when I was little, we'd all just sit out on
our lily pads for hours and hours, rocking gently on
the water and listening to the soft, sweet sound of
chirping crickets... Then, of course, we'd eat the
crickets...But that's another story.
-Kermit

I too agree with Falconwing.

I didnt even get half way through Iceman's story and alarm bells were going off on my BS meter. However, I dont think you should be too hard on yourself about it betty, not everyone is as cynical and suspicious as me.

What you should learn from this is people like Iceman use good hearted people like you, but dont stop being a good hearted person just because of jerks like that. Try to add a tiny dose of sceptisicm to your trusting nature and you will be fine.
