My dear I just nominated you for The Mindsay Auction, hahahahahahaha!

 

See underground1986 for details!

(The post was public, so I didnt want to say this there.)

That was my way of thinking: you actually have to go to the Top Blogs page. Its better than LC in that respect, and also that there are actually a few good blogs there. Plus, there are a ton of different actual users on that page.

I just dont know how it got this bad. I think its just the same way the world got so bad: too many damn people. LOL   There's something to be said for getting away with things, ignorance being bliss, what you dont know cant hurt you, etc. You can always seek out information that you want or need, like finding good blogs. But you cant un-read something that pops up right in your face.

On a tangent here, but in my opinion, this is why there were saints and miracles and why the Bible is all fucked up: people didnt catch you doing fucked up shit. There was no one around to see you kill someone or yell at someone or steal. You move to a different area, no one's the wiser. You could be anything you wanted to be and no one would think otherwise. You get knocked up, you feign innocence, its a miracle! They say knowledge is power, but I think there's such a thing as too much knowledge. Knowing too much can hurt you just as knowing too little can. And that's my little tangent for the day. LOL

Welcome to my...whatever the hell this is.  The Depths Of Josie's Bowels, or something.

You could be anything you wanted to be and no one would think otherwise.

True, which more or less describes the situation here--all anybody knows is what the person presents.  But...I dunno, Jayme, when somebody is Mr Nice in one part of town and Mr Nasty in another, which one is he?  He's both, of course--people are shades of gray, not blacks and whites--and is really Mr Nice-Nasty.  I don't know that not knowing that is really for the best--I think I'd rather know, and take the contexts into account.

 

Of course, you do have to take the contexts into account--following LC doesn't help that.  But TB itself doesn't help that either--one blog entry, and the comments to it, aren't nearly enough.

 

Does that make any sense?  I'm tired and depressed, and I'm not really functioning well right now, so maybe it doesn't.

It absolutely makes sense, totally! You brought up excellent points. I dont know if its so much that people are nice or nasty. In fact, I think everyone is nasty, period, because we all do fucked up things left and right. Its all in what you can justify, and what you cant. Like with a spouse and a stranger...what your spouse does, you want to and most times CAN forgive and justify. But a stranger? Youd crucify them for the same thing. But along that same line, what if your spouse killed a person because they felt like it, and you went 20+ years not knowing...then one day you found out by accident. Not knowing didnt hurt you, but knowing has now tainted your vision of them. BUT..some people would rather that be the case...than be ignorant. Its all personal choice, of course.

I love discussing this shit! I could have gone on for weeks, but i'm not, dont worry. LOL

I was mainly using nice-nasty as a simplified form of things that are at odds with each other...different aspects of the persona, or something of the sort.  But I see what you mean.  We will forgive our friends for that which we wouldn't forgive somebody else...and even jump in and defend them from attackers, real or bloggerty.  Whether it's really helpful or not.

 

On the murdering spouse question...I guess I'd say that I'd rather know, and know the background and whys, and try to understand it all.  But...no, I'm not 100% certain that's my final answer.

Welcome to my...whatever the hell this is.  The Depths Of Josie's Bowels, or something

 

That's just mean!  And I'll have you know my bowels are like a heavenly garden!

This is the most bipolar blog I have ever read! And I don't know if you can stop the spread of Josie - she's potent!

Do have any language in our contract stating that my blog has to make sense?  Of course not.

 

I think that all I have to do is surround Josie with snakes, and she will be potent no more.

Hey!  Enough with the talking smack behind my back, here about my back hair!

I was just helping provide a visual.

Lovely, just lovely, your new profile info that is.  It's a huge improvement over what you use to have there, much more interesting and entertaining, mostly because it's about ME!  HA!

As they say, any publicity is good publicity.

Oh, in that case you'll love my latest post.
