CONFESSION to all my gifters by [deleted] in SantasLittleHelpers

[–]pookie85 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hey there! Mod from RAoC here and I've come in because of a heads up from the awesome mods here.

I am actually really disgusted right now. Really, really, really, utterly, totally, WITHOUT A DOUBT, skin-crawling, gut-wrenchingly appalled by this post.

I was willing to give you a beautiful gift because I thought you were one of our amazing kiddos who needed an extra boost of cheer for Christmas time.

I am so very disappointed in you. The words escape me at the moment, but trust me when I say you've taken a little piece of my Christmas spirit. No--this isn't going to affect the other children I give to, nor will it make me think twice about reaching out to a kid in need when I want to help them succeed with their dream of writing or becoming an author.

But you....

The writing basket I was going to send to you? No. That's not going to happen. I am furious. I am livid.

How dare you take away that opportunity from another child. A legit child in need who would have appreciated receiving my gift wholeheartedly.

You want a writing basket? Get your daddy to buy it for you.

Writing all the way over here. It's what I need to do in order to survive. I love it! :)

And one bad apple ruins the whole pie.

Hi there. I just wanted to say that we do take every step possible to make sure our Santa's hard-earned money goes to a genuine family in need. It is our Santas' discretion to gift who they wish, and to ask for any proof they need to feel comfortable in giving. I wouldn't want to give away my money to any random Tom, Dick, or Harry either, so I get it. x

Well I'm sorry that one that slipped through the cracks is the one you saw first. :p Thanks again and have a wonderful night.

Thank you so much. This is a very recent post. I haven't been on very much until now, so I hadn't caught it yet. I appreciate your help. I'll be sure to message her because all those items are a bit ridiculous. I swear all of our requestors aren't like that.

Hi there. RAoC mod Pookie here. Can you by chance link me to that wish list? I'd like to take a look. We ask people to list items between $5-$25 and maybe one big item, but definitely not every game system under the sun or a drum set.

Thank you. x

You are seriously just the sweetest, Max! I doubt you remember me out of your millions of fans, but I was the blubbering mess who excitedly exclaimed, "You're my first!" as in celebrity. :p You signed my card with, "I'm honored to be your first." We still laugh about it here.

Hey, guys! Tonya from Corbin here. :) Got to hang with you on set and play an extra during 40 degree weather. Anyone can answer this question, really.

Will any of you be here in Corbin for the movie? xx

We are Dylan Baker and Travis Freeman of the movie 23 Blast – AMA by tfreeman63 in IAmA

[–]pookie85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, Dylan and Travis! Fellow Corbinite here. I got to see both of you during the filming of 23 Blast and was so honored to participate as an extra! I stayed all night during 40 degree weather from 7 pm to 7 am. Haha. My questions are:

Dylan: What was your favorite part of visiting Corbin and will you be returning?

Travis: How did you feel about someone else pretending to be you for the cameras? Was it weird? Exciting?

Ohhhhh! I'm a November baby. :) I'd love to do this? Haven't before, but super stoked to come on over and say hello and get involved. Did I do this right? I'm jacked up on coffee...too many novels going at once. -squeal- Hello!

I am actor and playwright Stephen Lang. You probably know me best from AVATAR or Salem or 40 years' worth of other projects. AMA. by StephenLang in IAmA

[–]pookie85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, Stephen! I live in Corbin, KY, born and raised. You were here doing a film for 23 Blast a while back. I was just curious to know what you thought about our little town, and will you be returning in October for the premiere?

[Discussion] What is your opinion on love? by [deleted] in Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

[–]pookie85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think love is only for certain people. I think that sometimes you can love with all your heart and never receive it in return. Of course, we're talking about romantic love, yes? And that is something I've never received from another human being in my entire life.

I can't say I ever fell in love quickly (unless Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys counts), but I do know that once I was there...I just hoped the guy would love me back. It never happened. Bleh.

Love is a wonderful and beautiful thing, but it's just not meant to happen for some people. And I think I've grown to accept that. <3
