Is it Jesus H. Christ ..........or is it
Jesus A. Christ?
I always thought it was Jesus "Jumped Up" Christ . . . thats what my father called him when he banged his thumb with a hammer
My Gramps said it was Jesus "F**king" Christ
OOMP . . good to see you back and in better spirits!
DONT CHANGE THE AVATAR!!! I Love It!!
oompa: Are you aware of what exactly is making life so unbearable? Maybe I haven't read enough, or listened enough, and you've already said plainly what the core issue is...or is it just the general sense of being taken for a ride by the WTS? Cheers -ve
But I feel I do need the "tuff luv" treatment.
Is it possible the one you want tuff love from, who knows you so much better than all of us here on the board, also knows you are not ready to take a big step to make some positive changes?
Nine pages of posts and the last few from you tell me your not ready.
If I were your friend living near enough to you, I would give you a dope slap and drag you into a professional. That kind of tuff love isnt going to work if your not willing.
I can and do support you as do others here. It's all worthless unless your ready.
I can only hope that you will soon post something to prove the compassion extended to you has made you ready and strong enough to make some positive changes.
All of the above posters berated the rest of us for being kind
Nah. Go back and re-read the posts. Strong remarks were initially directed only to OOMPA. The berating came from the 'kind' ones, ultimately resulting in being removed.
BTW, you could take some lessons in classiness from Abandoned:
I stand by my posts because I think I did the right thing. At the same time, there does seem to be a bit of wisdom in what Outlaw, Odrade, and Bizzy Bee have done. It appeared to me that you were being a bit heartless but maybe that's the way it's done. I don't know. The bottom line is that you were more right than I had given you credit for. p.s. I'll still probably respond the same way if I see someone who I think is considering suicide....
BizzyBee,
Let's look at the facts, post mortem.
I am glad that you are proud of yourself. Keep patting yourself on the back, if that is what you are in this for. You are receiving your reward in full. Enjoy it while it lasts. Self-righteousness only get you a brief high.
The same for Odrade and Outlaw.
I even understand the reason that Oompa is open to your comments TODAY, not at that time. This is understandable considering the nature of his disease. After the fact, we are the best at kicking our own ass after the light of day dawns.
I really appreciate all of those who were on the side of compassion. Here is a bit of the email I sent to my com padres:
"Don't let the armchair quarterbacks get to you. We were on the right team with Oompa. What the mean idiots don't get is that he was drunk, suicidal, off of his psych meds, in a blackout. The stuff they said might have some credence, BUT TIMING IS EVERYTHING! He had a Jeep running in the garage and a shotgun on his lap that thankfully jammed. We were just trying to get him to survive the night.
What they did was tantamount to yelling JUMP to someone on the roof of a building. How stupid can they be? Do they think we just want to mollycoddle him? Hell, I just wanted him to survive the night so I can kick his ass when he is lucid and can remember it.
Well, the idiots can bask in their supposed glory now, but we reached our objective. He is alive today. Thank you for being a loving, compassionate person."
If Oompa had only had your comments last night, he may have been a "true" post mortem. Could you live with that responsibility? You would probably just say: "not your problem."
May Outlaw, Odrade, and BizzyBee [fill in the blanks with the most vile comments that would be restricted by the moderators for good reason]. You would have made great elders.
JK
