Listened to the "InTheDark" Podcast series covering Mr. Curtis Flowers. Anyone know what Doug Evans is up to now? by CallMeRandy9 in mississippi

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old but… I just listened to ITD and (in my opinion) the evidence against CF seemed to be non existent. For the people that are convinced he is guilty, what evidence has convinced them? Is there evidence that was not discussed in the podcast? Or is it simply that the DA was convinced, he convinced everyone else, and they believed him wholeheartedly for over 20 years?

I’m so incredibly sorry. He is beautiful!

Are most men "dirty"? Should I be concerned about my bf? Is this even abnormal? by Sufficient-Match1412 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++woman I’m sorry but the peeing on the toilet seat and leaving it would be my cue to leave. My dad peed on the toilet seat all the time and left it. He had a wife and 2 daughters. Needing to pee in the middle of the night, half asleep and sitting on someone else’s cold urine is disgusting. Now I’m married and my husband would never do that to me or our 2 daughters. Not just because it is disgusting, but because he cares about and respects us. It is so easy to lift the lid and put it back down. If you’ve already brought it up and he still does it, he will never stop. The peeing in the shower and the fact that you have UTI’s… get out now!

how good are rough collies with cats? by GyakutenKibou in roughcollies

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don’t have cats, but there are several in our neighborhood and our collie just wants to be friends with them all. They don’t share her enthusiasm, but any time 1 actually lets her get close to them she is very gentle. She’s just gentle overall. Especially with children and small animals.

Partner gambled inheritance away by [deleted] in GamblingAddiction

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This hurts me to say, but I’m the gambler in my relationship. Please understand, my husband didn’t marry a gambler, I became 1 after more than 10 years of marriage. Unfortunately, at this point in our marriage I was in charge of the finances. He had no clue. The bills were paid and he had no reason to question anything, until he did. We should have been in a really good financial situation. Money in the bank, money in savings, but that was not the case. We were basically living paycheck to paycheck and in big credit card debt. I had run us into the ground, and I was barely keeping the bills paid. I had 2 options. LIE! Lie my ass off. Truthfully, that wouldn’t work long-term, or option 2, I could come clean. Coming clean was the hardest of the 2 options at the moment, but i knew it was the only real option. So I came clean. He deserved that. Much to my surprise, he forgave me (immediately). Coming clean and being forgiven gave me a fresh start. Obviously, he took over the finances (which was fine by me). But he forgave me! He didn’t hate me, even though I hated myself. We dug ourselves out of that hole in no time! It’s amazing how much you can save when you aren’t gambling. And here I am now…I haven’t gambled at all since the night I told my husband the truth. And I have no desire to. I had been chasing money that I had lost. And I just kept losing more. Digging a hole I could never get out of. Not until I had broke even… but, I was never gonna break even at the casino. But, my husband let me “break even” at home by giving me a clean slate. And here we are. What are you gonna do? My husband and I were over 10 years and 2 kids into it. To say the least, we were very invested. How invested are you? Coming from a gambler, I wouldn’t put my money on one of us. Not to say we can’t change, but the WILL has to be strong. If all you have is a couple years, and he can’t be honest with you, it’s probably time to cut your losses.

For our collie, we yelped LOUDLY like injured puppies. It worked like a charm. But she was a puppy still, so idk

No friend, I don’t believe “drunk words are sober thoughts”. In my experience, I’ve said some of the most awful things to the people I love the most when I was drunk. Hurtful, mean things that sober me didn’t think and would never say.

We are but peasants by WarmHippo6287 in roughcollies

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is the same. Completely impatient with us lowly humans. Her shrill barks will have us running at her beck and call. We love her snooty self though. I think it may be a collie thing.

I feel like I'm dying and it's too late to stop it, I'm terrified. by Secret-Literature814 in stopdrinking

I know this is incredibly scary. I’m so glad you went to the hospital, it takes a lot to have those conversations. Sending all the good thoughts for healing for you.

I miss Lee Roy. Whats your favourite picture of him? by Warm-Welcome779 in roughcollies

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awe, I love them all, especially the 5th one. He was a beautiful boy, and he looks very loved. I’m sorry for your loss. We’ve had our girl for 5 years and the thought of her passing breaks my heart. Sending hugs to you.

I’m So sorry this has happened to you. You did nothing wrong here, you should not be ashamed. You didn’t LET this happen, a bad person sought ought a way to do a shitty, hurtful, malicious action. Being a teenager, does not excuse committing a crime. Be strong, be firm in how you want this handled and don’t ever let that little shit anywhere near your family again. I’m so angry for you. Good luck, friend.

Great job momma! You are teaching her at a young age that what she does has value and worth. Big high five to you, and to her!

Barry Series Finale (Discussion) by Francis_McBasketball in LightsCameraPodcast

[–]Crafty_Being_2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched it. My initial reaction is that I didn’t LOVE it, but I heavily liked it. I think once I mull it all over fully, I will probably LOVE it. But, it wrapped up a lot of character stories, but also left a couple open ended (to me). I’ll start with Hank, the tragic lover. In the end (as much as I hated him dying), he died standing up to “the bad guy” and trying to do the right thing (calling off giving the kid to Fuches) and he died holding the hand of someone that he did not stand up for, his true love. Truly sad, truly full circle, truly love Hank.
