About the tooth ache bit… You should see what it will cost first. If its going to be something stupidly rediculous then buy a round trip ticket to Thailand and have it done there in a state of the art facility for about $100 or so. Then recover on a white sand beach drinking coconust. The week long vacation is often cheaper then getting dental done in the US. And the Thai dentisit are better, cleaner, and better equipped.

Why? Evil electro-ghouls are a great alternative power solution.

ZOMG YOU IDIOT!!! What where you thinking! Even AFTER I tell you how it sucked up my brothers life and I barely escaped with mine, that I have friends who STILL are addicted and can not separate them selves for real socialization and have gotten DIVORCED because of it AND after YOUR husband AGREED! Even THEN, you still joined up… What the hell was going through that head of yours?
Was that a little better? Only slight exaggeration. And said with a big grin to show I mean none of it… Or all f it… It’s really hard to tell with me sometimes.
2009-07-21 22:55:15 on Why?
It’s nap time. I never think more then I need to at nap time. That was a zero effort answer. If I really wanted to think about it I would have made it half the length with much less wordiness.
2009-07-21 22:22:20 on Why?
Can someone clarify the point? This guy (me) seems to not understand what your getting at.
Oh. Maybe that’s because I am willing to admit my ignorances? Ok. I think I see what’s getting at you. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong tho.
You say ALL guys and then point out that you are exaggerating. You are actually talking about 35% of the male population. This is a collection of personality types that emphasize self image as a priority. It is all about perceptions. And not even YOUR perceptions! It is about THEIR perceptions OF your perceptions of them. Did ya fallow that? If they THINK you are seeing them as a fool they will try to correct this with excuses, stories, bragging points, etc… Problem being, you didn’t think that… Yet.
It is when they OVER correct that you see the utter stupidity that stems from this image centred mentality. When they realize they just made a silly situation into something stupidly embarrassing, they want to band together with someone else to feel stronger and less vulnerable. You being the only other around means you need to be in the same state of mind in order to band together with. Hence the pointing out of faults. In theory, you are then supposed to become embarrassed and are now compatible and can be of use in helping each other unembarrass one another. Unfortunately, it never works according to theory.
As for doing something “stupid and pointless” and getting them selves hurt? That is not pointless. The point is it’s FUN. And to see if it CAN be done. Testing ones limits. It is a way of self exploration and growth. It’s actually healthy. Mentally. I mean it is mentally healthy. Obviously the physical healthfulness is subject to ones successes or failures…
How to solve the issue? Get him to tell you the truth. Then just treat it as a normal situation. “You did what? That was a dumb idea. Did you enjoy it?” Assuming “yes, it was fun” you can respond with “Good, it wasn’t a total waste then. If “No” respond with “Good, we won’t have to clean up after it a second time.” You should notice that both are positive responses. This encourages your dog… Er… Man to tell the truth the first time in the future. Just remember that the injury it’s self has already taught the lesson. There is no need to add to it.

Only 2 weeks and 5 days later then your edit.
Told you I wasn’t a good house sitter. It had an oven? I am in China! NO house has an oven!!! Except mine. I just bought an oven last week.
2009-07-21 10:05:48 on Bragging.
I am alive. Yup. That’s my bragging. I live.
2009-07-21 09:27:25 on I fell asleep by the canal last night…
Whats with all the old ones showing up again? Including me???
2009-07-21 09:23:55 on The Prodigal Dragon Returns.
Just because I am not here on this site much does not mean I’m not still watching… Any better ways of keeping in touch?
2009-05-14 05:35:53 on Next subject of the April 2009 meeting of the League of Powers: China.
So… Why do you want to nuke the country I happen to live in?
2009-05-11 22:29:59 on Chat room is closed.
That makes sense. I do not mind not being a chat mod.
2009-05-08 00:46:15 on Chat room is closed.
I was a mod in the new chat room for about 4 days. Then went to Puyang and it hasn’t worked since. I also never had a password so that could be the problem. I think in the very beginning of this room it was IP based.
2009-05-08 00:39:08 on I’m ok, I spent all day in hospital yesterday,
Wow… To see this post after our Thailand meeting is kinda cool and a little bizarre. Come a long way we have…
2009-04-13 07:37:33 on Chat room is closed.
I am a chat mod also. But only when in Beijing for some reason…
