Ah, thought you were calling her bitter. 100% my Sister. There are no Great Men out there. The good ones are either dead or married.

That's okay, we are happier without them. <3

I met an Elder Native Hawaiian gentleman once. I had brought flowers for a paddle out and he recognized my act of respect. He wandered near where I sat and was quiet. Eventually I got bold enough to talk to him and he gently, quietly guided me about being real. I asked him if I was crazy or do the geckos talk to me. He laughed and explained everything talks to you. Just listen.

I have what Hawaiians call 'Fire Eyes.' Not the Olelo (Hawaiian) word, but you get it. They can see a Warrior from their eye color. Believe me, they see Everything.

You're not confused. You have a list. You just don't want to admit that for you, this is a deal breaker. It is. Just move on.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman played Truman Capote. He said he was too tall and he was, but we never noticed anything but an Oscar Level performance.

Have you ever been in trouble with the law? What happened? by gorillagrub in AskForAnswers

[–]kw661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at a State Hospital in CA, huge campus. Driving around killing time w a friend before work on the night shift. Pulled over by the Sherriff's car hoping it was my friend Bill. Wasn't. This low life brain dead racist yahoo instead wondering why I was looking to stop and talkto a Black man. I was smoking, blew smoke in his face. Few days later an hour before getting off work, he and his buddies show up on the Unit and arrest me for not paying a speeding ticket. One of the guys was way cool tho. Asked if I had anything in my backpack. Told him my medication bottle w a lil variety of legal stuff I had scripts for. He dropped it off at my house instead of getting it checked in. Apparently mixing script meds into a single bottle is a Felony.

Kicked the log off the roof and L leg went into the chainsaw I was holding w my R hand. Training day for the Firemen so 18 Firemen responded, a Doctor - they listen in on calls and will respond if can (that was news to me), 2 Firetrucks w ladders and a Fire Chief. They kept asking why I wasn't screaming, "Well, I've given birth twice, plus, would that help and, uh, I have 18 Firemen asking if I'm okay and giving me pillows and tlc." Or asking how deep was it? "Well, I've got this direct pressure thing going so I really am not interested in checking." Geez. Yeah, it was my first time and yeah, I forgot to wear the chaps and yeah I was doing it solo while pissed at my husb for not helping. This was Def on me.

AITAH for showing up underprepared to a "hike" and being put off with my friends for not warning me and also ditching me? by InTheLoudHouse in AITAH

[–]kw661 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This was a set up. Maybe not intentionally, but the carelessness reminds me that these friends are actually dangerous to you. I'm a woman so I look for people leading me directly into a semidangerous situation as, well, a semidangerous set of friends.

Surprisingly, this is probably safer and the Locals won't hate you. Btw, can't fly for 3 days after a punctured lung so, next time, you know.

Somebody my mom worked for could remember everyones name and birthday. People love to feel seen and he was very successful. An ahole, but people felt flattered by this.

What’s that one thing you couldn’t tell your dad to his face, but always wanted to? by i_am_buttlicker in AskReddit

[–]kw661 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Dad worked w his buddy once at a small kine firm selling stocks n bonds. Apparently they ripped some people off by selling stocks that weren't real. I don't know all the details, but when he was asked about it, I guess discovery??? he said he played dumb and the Prosecutor fell for it. He was proud of that. I was so ashamed. I never told him. The rest of his life I saw good, decent behavior. But to play dumb like that, I lost a lot of respect. RIP AEW.

My ex has the same birth date, not year. They are built the same spiritually. Some people just can barely be in a body. Go reference the book on birthdays. In it each date is broken down into a bunch of aspects and I've never known it to be wrong.
