I have two abusive mentally ill parents that have threatened me, mocked me, belittled me my entire life, and b/c of my low self esteem/PTSD, I'm still living here. I have no adult (even though I'm an adult) in my family who can console me/help me. My two friends are very self absorbed. And I've never dated b/c of the very low self image I've had for years, it scares me a lot- to think a guy will accept me and want to be with 'me' over a woman who hasn't been through years of abuse. So I feel so alone and scared to be out on my own ,e ven though I do long for it, b/c I'm an adult and I do have compassion, responsibility etc. If anyone has experienced even a tad similar dynamic, any tips or comments welcome how you trudged forward. less

I believe there where four to choose from each with a "humorous" caption and illustration. Did you ever encounter this? Is it rather bizarre?
I don't CARE what they think. They don't listen to me any way. They have preconceived ideas that cannot be changed. Why bother talking to them? I stopped. It feels good. :)

We were amazed!!Anyway. .. One of the mothers got wise and interrogated her son who, probably considering his own safety above everybody else's, decided to fold .I got walked to the store, had to return the stuff and got a severe "talk" to.
How bout you?

He might even try to blame Obama and say Obama taped his golf ball and the extra weight caused them to slice to the left or a Hillary supporter kept shinning a mirror in his eyes. Cheers!

There is just a Judge".Now if that is true why did we get the consistent 5-4 votes when Scalia was alive? Why did McConnel et al REFUSE to let Obama pick a SCOTUS nominee and run it by the Senate? Why did folks say that was a BIG REASON they voted for Trump because of the SCOTUS nominees he would choose versus the ones Hillary would pick? If there is no politics in involved at all in judicial nominations who is big fat LiAR who is guilty of promulgating the LIE that judicial picks are crucial? Why? less

Are they really that brain dead and clueless or do they know they're sick and are simply crying out for help?

I'm not sure certain of his exact words but he believed he was above the law. Do you think exceptions should be made and that sometimes a law is less important than what someone wants to do? Why?

Without thoughtful and mindful pursuit of further investigating/researching/figuring out what is right? It sounds as if he can be touted with just a few words. It is unsettling. Does it sound fine to you?

It's not limited to mafia any more. They get stuck in a rut and get lonesome I guess so they keep wanting you back there with them when it was boredom that caused you to move on. I don't get why they can't let you go.
In addition to that which is explicit or implicit in The Constitution what other laws/rules/regulations do you think would need to be added to serve we the people well and why?

I KNOW why because of something I experienced when I was 3 years old! I know WHY. I still have a fear of heights. So why does knowing why solve some things and not other things?
