Once again.....

Bravo... Bravo... Bravo...

Standing Ovation.....

I liked this part, where...:

"He acted like he didn't hear me. He said, "You freak of nature, I'm not Tommy. Can't you see who I am, you blind moron? Who cares what you think? Everybody knows who Santa Claus is. Give me some cash, or I'm telling the cops that you don't believe in Santa Claus. You hate Santa Claus! Somebody should put you out of your misery, you brain-damaged piece of rat dung."

Actually, I think you are being very kind....

But I am willing to keep on with your story, I will reprint these lessons, I can think of quite a few people to give this scripture.

Surely, in the worst case, they can understand this, as it is written quite clearly, better than most.....

Keep it up.

Z.

TLC, what a touching story, poor little Torquemada. Anyone on this thread bears any similarity to this poor character? If anyone recognizes himself, step upfront, and I'll give you the dime you so cherished.

Is 'screwed-up' one word, or two?

"(double points if you can whittle it down to one single word)"

TLC,

I feel a bit sheepish about responding to such a long post with just a few sentences. Mea culpa. Here goes...

Sometimes people treat other people as they (subconsciously?) feel they, themselves, deserve to be treated. Correctly or incorrectly.

Good essay on religion. I mean the one about Little Tommy. He used to come to my house too. I told him I was a Jehova's witness and told him I felt sorry for him but I was too poor to give him any money but did he want love instead? He called my a hypocritical bastard and I congratulated him on his insight. I told him that I did not believe in Halloween as I thought it taught children to be greedy and rude and to go over to Taste Like Chicken's house because I had heard you had made disparaging remarks about him and while he could distract you at the door with outrageous statements a confederate could trash your rose bushes and I would then give him money for that. He liked the idea. It kept him off my back. I came to the conclusion that it pays to feed people who are unchangeable in character with currency of their perceived revenge upon society. What the heck if I didn't do it some other evil creep would.
