Shrillomn, a brief expose

[Lucille]

Wesley, from what you told me, after your ex left you, you couldn't find anyone. Really, if you would get off the computer and go out, you might find someone like you.

 

[ms_terese]

Being kind of selective, are we not Terese ? Seems you have an axe or two to grind, eh ?

Nope, not at all. My first "summary" of what I thought of this thread was post #160. Since then, here are the parts that stood out for me:

At this point, I think I have milked it for all that I can, trying to goad Bob and others. Bob as tucked tale and run.

YOU, Jim Flaherty, decided that the term hypocrite was not fitting and that you were steadfast in your behavior and would not bow down to the changing winds and thereby change your own demeanor. I sought out to prove otherwise.

Are you saying you are hurting people here just for pleasure?

But why would I want to be the rain on the parade and stop the entertainment value of this thread? What harm has Shrillomn actually done?

No, I have no axes to grind with anyone here.

Webslave, I didn't see my post as a slam to anyone....simply a summary. As far as "constructive", I have continually reiterated your claims that this is YOUR site to do with as you will ever since you got sick of listening to people whine and decided to do it your way.

I didn't realize there were so many sensitive people here.

 

[ms_terese]

Terese, you have to stop calling me. Your husband just wouldn't understand....

Hmmm...why DID my husband stop coming here and posting? Do you remember, Lucille? I think you just might...

 

[SteveHiss]

Just let it all out everybody. It's good for the soul.

 

[Chameleon Company]

Terese, as you know before you selectively quoted, the "goad" was for Bob to put his money where his mouth was, and back up his accusation. He claimed he represented a "consensus". He, and they, evidently had not the temerity to do it.

Right on the money once again Rich.

Good luck Wes. Hope you find that "right someone".

 

[Lucille]

Terese, you are obviously being less than constructive and trying to focus the attention away from your trolling.

We all know that when Terese Mansell posts it will be to slam someone or another instead of posting something constructive.

Concur.

You SURE tried though didn't you?

And, she of no value who will heretofore be on mental ignore since you have that little bit of mod status that renders it impossible for me to ACTUALLY ignore you, since you like to quote out of context and only use parts of quotes, what I actually said was I couldn't find anyone for whom I felt that spark that I, just me, needed to start another relationship. YOU were not the only one who tried, though your failure was one of the most sad.

I'm not only hard to deal with for being me, but I have this dream that I won't sell short, unlike some here, which YOU well know.

Now, I've spent FAR too much time whittling you down and giving you your much needed attention as well as showing more of myself than is customary for me, to my own disgrace and displeasure, but felt it was necessary to show just how hard you tried to land me, never having a chance, and told FROM THE VERY FIRST TRY YOU MADE THAT THERE WAS NO CHANCE.

You didn't even make it to friend, much less anything more, you sad sorry hypocritical lovelorn wannbe hubrically challenged old bag.

 

[Lucille]

Wes, judging by your reaction, I must have hit a nerve, and I feel bad for you.

You told me often that you had no life. You are a tired, lonely old man. I actually do hope that you find someone to share your life with.

I think your meanness on this board, the way you can't wait to hurt people when they post, must be a substitute for the relationship you seek.

I hope the new year brings you someone. It will make you happy, and it will make the many on this board that you constantly belittle happy also.

Sooo,
Its like bringing horses to the water,then making them drink ,then killing them for drinking , then hitting the dead horse with a stick because it drank from the well ,up untill the next herd of horses come up the the water then the cycle starts over again.

Sad - but entertaining in a morbid way

.........
There are a few complaining about shrilly, to paraphrase, pulling strings and pushing buttons. IF that IS the case, why are YOU posting on this thread?

Interesing line of reasoning, neh?

Wes, in regard to this partial quote. Speaking for myself, I am not complaining about what is being pushed, pulled, spilled or exposed here. Simply making some observations concerning the human condition. To post in this thread does not automatically, on its own, describe one as having a complaint.

This is pretty laughable, so there is no point in defending what is hogwash. She who speaks so loudly might want to look in the mirror before speaking.

However, since we're slinging mud... for your sake, Lucille, hopefully whatever woman ends up with Wes will be agreeable to a ménage à trois; maybe you could get your chance with him, afterall...?

Go on and dream, Darlin; we all have to have something to live for.

 

[shrap]

for your sake, Lucille, hopefully whatever woman ends up with Wes will be agreeable to a ménage à trois;

EWWWWWWWWWWWWW..... thanks for that visual, Denise.

 

[SoulSmilen]

EWWWWWWWWWWWWW..... thanks for that visual, Denise.

Haha.. you are quite welcome; anytime I can be of service, just ask!

I'm thinkin Wes isn't going to be so fond of that post, but I just couldn't pass it up...

 

[Lucille]

Haha.. you are quite welcome; anytime I can be of service, just ask!

It seems like the newest member of our little Houston group is quite the service oriented one.......fortunately, your trash won't float there.....

Standards Woman, standards. As there are those with whom I would not drink with there are MOST ASSUREDLY those with whom ANY sort of intimacy is not EVEN a pipe dream, no matter what they smoke.

 

[SoulSmilen]

That was a grasp, Lucille; why not leave those comments directly related to that group where they belong.. with that group?

Is there anywhere else you'd like to bring into the limelight here? My family, my job, my friends that aren't on Fauna... I can provide you with contact information if that would make your life easier.

In the spirit of the holidays, might be a time for those with any civil decorum to let this thread be until after Santa has left the building. I realize that a few feel there are loose ends to tie up, and don't see me as being in much of a position to request a lid be put on it just yet. But maybe anyone anxious to start a new brawl will think twice before posting, at least for a week or so. Happy holidays .. or bah humbug ... whichever is appropriate !

 

[hhmoore]

I feel like I want to say something here...but, honestly, I don't know what I could possibly add.
Wow, maybe? Or perhaps, Hmmmm?
I saw this thread as somewhat amusing initially, but now I think sad is a much better term. I had no misconceptions about everybody here getting along - far from it, in fact - but the vitriol being hurled (spewed) does surprise me. I guess I just preferred to see things cast under a different light...or in the hue of my rose tinted glasses, which now lie smashed at my feet.
I am disappointed to admit that I have checked in to follow this thread semi-regularly. At first with amusement and interest, which went through several metamorphoses before becoming essentially morbid intrigue. Now, though, it is time for me to click to unsubscribe, before I become any further disillusioned about those I share this space with. I have discovered I don't want to see who most of you are. There are a few here I consider friends, still more that I have varying levels of respect for. I want it to stay that way.
As much as I grew tired of hearing about the desire for a kinder, gentler Fauna, THIS just saddens me.

Since this thread DOES have the attention of so many - I will use it to wish everybody a joyous holiday season. Take care.

Harald,

I agree with you that this thread has got way out of hand. Sometimes, it is not easy to de escalate once things have got to a certain point but I think it worth the effort.
I apologize for my part in in posts which might have been better left unwritten; I think Harald has some wise words here and I am going to use them as my call to be more mindful of what I write in the future.

I too hope every single person on this site will have a happy holiday, that they can be with family and friends and feel the joy of the season.

 

[Wilomn]

I know there are a lot of opinions about people out there.

I am very curious though about whether or not anyone is truly surprised by anything that anyone has said on this thread.

Deep down, is what is here what you expected, perhaps hoping never to see yet having that feeling deep down that it was the actual true essense, the true persona of those who have "opened up" in this thread.

I'm not really surprised by anything anyone has done but I don't have that rosy outlook that Harold was robbed of.

It is one thing to clinically discuss how people act, what they will do to make themselves either look good or less bad, how opinions of some change depending on which way the wind is blowing and who is blowing that wind, whether or not the truth, or ones actual perception of the truth is important and adhered to or just used as a soapbox, a platform to make assertions which in the next thread will be diametrically opposed by those standing on that little wooden box this time, and quite another to see, first hand and in person, all those thoughts and suppositions and what ifs brought right out into real life.

No one has come out of this without having some sort of change in them, I think, but I am curious about whether or not any are actually, truly, surprised by what has been written in this thread.

It makes much more sense in THIS thread than the one I originally mistakenly posted it in.
