Going Down With The (Friend)ship
Long before I actually met The Blogger In Purple, I knew who he was. Each week, his wildly colorful musings took his readers into his world. The words one might best use to describe what they’d find there? Shock and aww, because The Blogger In Purple’s entries would vacillate wildly between sexual titillation ("He wanted to put his what where?") and heartwarming sentiment. Sometimes, the two worlds would collide in a way that left you realizing just how talented he truly was. They were filled with people whose names were changed to protect the guilty and exploits which occasionally seemed -- ...
Welcome To The Academy of Hate
Americans For Truth. What American doesn't want truth, right? From our government, from our loved ones... truth is, as we all know, a good thing. Except, of course, when it is a blatant lie. Google the words "Americans For Truth" or simply go to americansfortruth.com and what you'll find is a vile little group whose REAL name is "Americans For Truth... About Homosexuality." And in their latest attempt to prove themselves the most vile organization on the planet -- and there's a lot of competition out there, kids! -- this repulsive little cult of narrow-minded hatemongers has formed what they are calling "Americans ...
Bite Me!
There are a lot of different ways one can respond to an insult. But when being called “fat” by someone, it might be wise to think twice before coming to the conclusion that gnawing on their flesh is the way to go. But it appears that’s how Anna Godfrey of Lincoln, Nebraska opted to respond. Told by a guy at a party that she was fat, Godfrey chowed down on his ear according to police reports. The 21-year old woman also tackled her 24-year-old commenter, also not necessarily a great choice since the notion of a her taking down a guy and ...

Fix This!
I took my car in for an oil change on 11/21/09 on a used car I recently purchased. I also asked the manager to check the heater as my heat was not working in my car. He came back 15 minutes later and informed me I had a badly leaking water pump, an oil leak on the valve gasket cover, and my thermostat needed replacing. A total estimate of repairs and labor of $479.97. I became very upset as I am moving... [Read more]
Quiet Riot
When living with someone and entering or leaving the home would you consider it rude to not say anything? I’m going out, be back late…or whatever? I live with a friend and whenever he leaves the house, he never says a word. If you try talking to him, he cuts you off right in the middle and never lets you finish. Is that rude or what? Whenever I leave, I always say something… Be back... [Read more]
(Un)happy Campers
I have never seen a more rude bunch of people. If you don’t belong to the “group” who all camp together, you’d better not post a question. You’ll be made fun of, ridiculed and everything else. Sad really… supposed to be happy Disney people. They made me not want to stay at Fort Wilderness. Read More →
If I knew That, You’d Be Gone, Sister!
I was on a conference call with a group of approximately five co-workers when we somehow got off topic and started discussing recent promotion announcements. Jokingly, I made the comment that I obviously need to figure out who’s sleeping with who so that I could get a promotion as well. One of my co-workers spoke up, saying, “Don’t you know the right person to sleep with? Rumor... [Read more]
Couch Surfer
A friend of mine fell on hard times in August. I offered her my couch. Fast forward 3 months. She was still on the couch, getting $800.00 a month from SSI waiting on SSD, and I find out she is selling her pain pills for $700.00 a month. (Thats what got her off the couch.) She would shop for fancy shampoo , creams, and even bought a pair of boots. Meanwhile, my main job as a Realtor was slow due to... [Read more]
Dr. Douche, Medicine Man
Once was bad enough: You told me my pain and fatique MUST be caused by depression, so if I’m still ill in a week to come back and get on anti-depressants. Today was the straw that broke the camel’s back: You had your employee call me and question my symptoms, “because don’t you have gynelogical problems?” Wow. I’m deeply offended at your Victorian attitude toward... [Read more]
Big Baby
I am a 35 year old man in New York City, and like most New Yorkers, I have a roommate. She is 45. You’d think that she would behave as an adult. You’d think I’d get treated as an adult. That is not the case. I just walked into the living room and said her name, in preparation to ask her a question. She curtly ’shushed’ me like I was an unruly child and gestured toward...
