I guess I sold a painting
why the post here ? the painting that was sold on a on line auction was one of the commercial things that I as a tortured artsy fartsy
goober had destroyed in a crazed rage . I found pieces of it on the garage floor where I broke it over my head ( ouch ! ) . So then I realized I would have to call this stranger and tell him that the painting he sold was destroyed , he said maybe the customer would accept another nice safe motel kind of painting if I could find one that I hadn't destroyed .
Tomorrow after 4 weeks of angst and me beating myself up for being a crazed loony bird maybe just maybe the guy will give me a check and a chance to try to see if someone in the world perceives any value in my life which was my work which in the scope of things has no value because who knows why we are here or why anyone is allowed to be financially successful or just another tortured soul looking in from the outside on a world going into a materialistic greed melt down .
Well thanks doc see you next week sorry about the rant .......oh and in passing here is a not funny shrink joke
Two behavioral therapists meet at a conference and somehow end up making love ---while they are getting dressed afterwards one says to the other " was that as good for me as it was for you ? "
Well.
Apparently there's only one member of the whole human race who can make any sense out of the above.

That is fantastic news!

Don't hold your breath, odd lot.

Another leftist that is batshit crazy...shocker. :whatever:

Whenever I see a sentence like that, I always wonder how it would look diagrammed.

Unless you want to wind up as batshit insane as the OP, I wouldn't recommend trying it. Trying to apply the lens of rationality to something inherently irrational never ends well...

She is the exact opposite of a less-off.

Tortured artist my ass....the people that look at that shit are the tortured ones.
-
If this DUmmy is tortured, it is entirely self inflicted.
Drugs are bad, mmmm'kay.

Primitive would have done much better slicing off an ear in it's fit of rage. Would have gotten the $7.50 for the painting and added immensely to it's cred as an artiste.

Cut off some body parts. Worked a long time ago. If not, just keep cutting.

And $5 for the ear on Craigslist.

It would be something from an HP Lovecraft story- a sentence which causes insanity.
That gives me an idea for a story: "Out of the Sphincter of Madness- a DU Tale".

This is what happens after a lifetime of being told "you are special" when you aren't and that reality is hitting home now. Had this loon been successful I doubt he would be complaining about materialist greed.

I read that whole thing and I got scared. I actually felt mentally unstable reading that diatribe. :panic:
-
I didn't get the joke, either.
-
It is clear that :jugs: has no idea what the original poster was actually trying to say if she was all congratulatory.

It was actually the one thing in the whole post that made some sense. Not a knee-slapper, but kind of clever. I'm sure the primitive stole it from somewhere, none of them actually have a sense of humor, or the creative talent to come up with a cogent stand-up one-liner like that.

Nope. You are not only crazy and ignorant, but stupid as soup sandwich to boot. The country and world really will be better places without you.

I suspect there will be a ÷0 error in there somewhere.

I simply did not understand a word the top primitive said.
He's some sort of "Hitler" artist? Is he planning on annexing Austria?

When it comes to bacon on BLT sandwiches, I put more on, and take less off.

It was a clever joke. Definitely not original work by the DUmmy.
Mental health therapy is based on the concept of "empathy"- the professional understands the emotional state of the patient/client*, and becomes invested in it. Mental health professionals are better at identifying other people's conditions than their own; typically, mental health professionals are psychiatric train wrecks.
So, in the joke, each therapist believes he/she knows how the other feels, but not him/herself.
*In practice, mental health diaqnosis is no more accurate than a TV weatherman's prediction for next weekend. There's an old saying, "Three psychiatrists will give you four different diagnoses".

I'm afraid that post would only be worth a B- from a comp course at that school, since all the words were there in some form, and the meaning of the sentence could actually be deciphered by a nontelepathic English-speaker.
:-)

The DUmmie is certifiable. :panic:
How on earth do you break a painting over your own head?
Maybe that would qualify as an act on "America Has Talent".

H5 for that, by the way, it was a perfect and concise assessment of her post.
