9. Well....
I am not going into it here.
Those fools from that "Other Place" track me, incessantly.
Jerking off in their Mother's basement.
PM me, remind me.
I HATED GEORGE BUSH BEFORE IT WAS COOL
Don't flatter yourself, TiT. I AM the mother and I don't have a basement. I have a full, active, wonderful life...but then I'm not a alcoholic loser who works at a greeting card shop and has to invent a life. I want to expose you as the fraud you are for the same reason I wanted to expose Andy...your sociopathic need to be the center of attention sullies the reputations of and negates the hard work of others clearly better than you. If it was just the raging, half insane hatemongers at DU who were subject to all your lies I really wouldn't care...but you post ugly, vile things on a public message board. If someone's suffering...you've suffered worse, if someone did something heroic, you did something 20 times braver, if someone is spewing hate, you're going to spew more. The only time you
appear to care about others is when you can play I'm the biggest badass on the planet like offering to come down and "kill those dogs and their owner too." If it was just that kind of thing I wouldn't care...it doesn't really hurt anyone and it evidently makes you feel like a big man. You seem to imagine yourself to be this Oliver Stone soldier/Bob Dylan/Walter Mitty/Jesse Ventura/George Plimpton guy.
Granted some of your lying is downright laughable. Trying to pawn off other people's songs as your own...it's SO ****ing obvious you even get called on it by your fellow DUers. But you just keep doing it over and over again. When the first reaction of your own compatriots is to Google the lyrics to see who REALLY wrote them, perhaps it's time to get a new gig. You claim to have never gone to public school because your family was super religious Southern Baptist types. Oh, and your abuse and isolation was worse than those poor FLDS kids in El Dorado. Even were that the case, you're an adult...if you truly understand you might try having a little empathy for those children instead of making the thread all about you. I do have to say, if you truly were homeschooled (and someone taught you to read and write...too bad you didn't learn about integrity) then I applaud your pioneering parents. When you were growing up homeschooling wasn't legal and parents who chose that option took great risks to do what they thought was best for their children. Speaking of children...I wonder how your sons feel about you inventing a life for them. I am kind of curious (and considering how you like to brag about the famous people you know) which one of these percussionists is your son: Michael Carabello, Marcus Malone, Jose 'Chepito' Areas, Rico Reyes, Victor Pantoja, Coke Escovedo, Pete Escovedo, James Mingo Lewis, Armando Peraza, Francisco Aguabella, Orestes Vilato, Raul Rekow, or Carl Perazzo?
The part of your made-up "hard knock" life (that's from Little Orphan Annie so don't steal it) that pisses me off is your Navy SEAL crap. You've embraced every single stereotype, especially the negative ones, that your generation believes about Vietnam. You're a badass, a killer, a covert op, you've tortured and killed innocents, and like John Kerry, were in Cambodia, Laos, and where ever else "we" weren't supposed to be. Basically I think you've watched
Apocolypse Now and
Platoon too many times. I don't know whether you served or whether you were actually in country (the fact that you wouldn't know something like DEROS...try googling next time...prettly much makes that suspect) but I know damn well you weren't covert and you sure the hell weren't a SEAL. This is another one you might want to redo...SEAL Team 3 DIDN'T EXIST DURING THE VIETNAM WAR! They only just celebrated their 25th anniversary. How were you part of something that hadn't yet been formed? You really should've done some research before that one. If you can take the time to look up lyrics to steal it seems you could also find the minute or two necessary to find out what SEAL Teams were actually in Vietnam (it was 1 & 2). When you tell your "we threw old people down wells to get intel" stories you damage the reputations of those who really did serve in every branch in every conflict and even those who served in peacetime. Just who the hell do you think you are?
My father-in-law fought in WWII. He marched from Normandy to Berlin and fought in some of the bloodiest battles in WWII. He was bayonetted in the side during the battle of Hurtgen Forest and never told a soul because he didn't want to leave his unit. He has never shouted any of this to the world at large or even family gatherings. Most of this he told my son when he was learning about WWII and some of it had to literally be pulled out of him. My husband says he NEVER talked about it while he was growing up. Like most real soldiers, he was very humble and didn't feel the need to brag about it. My mother-in-law was one of the first lady Marines, something she's very proud of. She worked stateside with gyroscopes and never once tried to invent stories about super secret missions or other nonsense. She served and that was good enough for her. My uncle was Air Force Special Forces in Vietnam (he enlisted). I don't know a whole lot about what he did since he doesn't brag about it every chance he gets. The extent of my knowledge is that he went oversees and when he came home he gave me an Alice in Wonderland doll he bought in Germany and he brought me a kitten a couple weeks later when I was sick. I was living with my grandparents (his parents) when he came home because my parents were flaking out yet again. The fact that this 23 year old young man, after everything he'd done and everything he'd seen actually thought to buy his little niece a doll on his way home says more about his character than whatever he did in Vietnam.
My oldest son served in the Coast Guard. His service was pretty uneventful for the most part. He was stationed in Alaska and most of what he did was saving drunk fishermen from themselves, a few rescue missions, and inspecting cargo containers. He did get to do a lot of fishing which is his favorite thing in the world next to his wife and kids so that was probably his favorite part. Much of what he did was monotonous and boring more often than not but he says he loved it and he's glad he was there just in case something happened. He never tried to pretend he was a Coast Guard SEAL. Though he does have a friend he met he nicknamed Cornpone who he keeps in touch with. His friend calls him Trout so I guess he would have to claim to be a covert Coast Guard TROUT. My youngest is in the Marine Corps. He's still in training and get's very uncomfortable when someone says thank you to him. He says, "Mom, I haven't done anything yet." He does have his security clearance but with the exception of running his squad past the Code Pinkos and other assorted dirty hippies during PT (they love doing that) has never gone into enemy territory, covertly or otherwise. Monterey has a few gang members but it doesn't seem to be a hotbed of terrorism. There are quite a few active duty military on the message boards I post at including this one. Not one of them has ever bragged about what they do. Most don't even mention it. They don't need to prove themselves or pump up their ego. And THAT is why I care about what you say. You are sullying the reputations of people clearly better, braver, and more humble than you. Why can't you just pretend to be James Bond?
