"You still would have died" is the kind of irrational thing you would expect a mother to say in that kind of situation i think. Or at least you wouldn't agrue with her. "I dont believe in prescriptions" is a strange thing to say. But the mother of a girl i was friends with when i was younger used to say things like that all the time. I lost count of the amount of things she didn't believe in. "Are you coming out for Haloween?" "No, my mother doesn't believe in Haloween." Whats not to believe in? It may be a dumb "holiday", this is true, but let the kid out to have some fun for Gods sake! |
Yea, my folks used to be massive Christians when I was coming up and they didn't celebrate holidays. We couldn't celebrate Christmas because my dad said Jesus wasn't born then and it was a pagan holiday, so we had "Toy Day" instead... where we went to the store with X amount of budget and bought what we wanted. That's worse than it sounds.
Halloween, was "the devils holiday" so we couldn't celebrate that either. We had "Candy Day", where we had to spend the night at church where they told all the kids how scared we should be of the devil and all his tricks, then my dad took us to a grocery and gave us a minute to fill some brown paper bags with the candy we wanted. That's worse than it sounds. Easter, we couldn't celebrate that because the parents said "the world distorted the meaning of Easter, so you can't go easter-egg hunting... because that would be conforming to the will of the world, and not the will of the lord." Word for word. Thanksgiving was the only one we celebrated like other normal Americans. That's probably why I don't give much of a shit about holidays in general. All that is stupidity. |
My mother's husband comes up with some serious gems:
Looking outside the window in the door on Halloween: "Must be too cold for them colored kids!" Talking about our female governor: "That's what happens when you put a woman in office. They're ignorant. See, you can't just put someone in office because of sex or color. That's what's wrong with America today." then five minutes later on something unrelated "There's a lot of sexist pigs out there" On my grandmother: "Them damn Krauts just can't stay faithful can they!" My best friend's mom is even worse, we had to make a whole blog of **** she says Things Jeny's Mom Says lololol |
Paloma...
Wow. That is unreal. Jeny appears to have some really forward thinking parents! Quote:
Do you ever wish you had celebrated these holidays? Or do you just really not care? |
I wish I had... I mean, I used to be jealous of all the other kids who got excited for holidays. I never got to do that, so I never experienced it. I guess over the years, when you don't get to cultivate any kind of emotional connection with stuff like that, you naturally don't find yourself caring much about it.
It's like the difference between the death of a stranger and the death of a close friend. Holidays are strangers to me. They come and go, and I don't notice much. |
Yeah, that makes sense.
I don't think i ever necessarily treasured days like that when i was a kid. Christmas maybe but then again, it was probably just because i got loads of presents. I know i would treasure days like that a lot more if and when I have kids. I know that if you never have it, you can't miss it and so i imagine it just doesnt seem a big deal but I do look forward to choosing to be terribly traditional and sentimental. |

Well, one of the stupidest things I remember *I* did was when I was a passenger in a car and saw one of those expandable campers hitched to the car in front of us. The camper was around 3 feet tall, and for a moment I thought, "Huh. Is that a camper for little people?" I actually said it out loud, too! :o: |

And no scientologist has ever had a psychological problem...... ...according to Tom Cruise:

He was basically proselytizing Scientology throughout that entire interview.

My religion teacher once told me that animals don't think
|
Quote:
|
LOL! when he said that i just did a instand *facepalm*
and when i asked "but sir if animals didnt think wouldnt they not move or eat and jus kinda be vegetable like?" he didnt have an explanation for that except "i'm a religion teacher not a biology teacher" |
One thing that always puzzled me was why animals were never mentioned as getting into heaven, it only seems to be for us humans as if animals don't have a soul or brain or something. Then i realised that Christianity is nothing but a big cult and everything makes more sense when you look at thing scientifically. A biology teacher would certainly know more about animals having minds of their own than any religion teacher.

"Wheres Europe?" "ummm....its next to london..(waiting for them to fall into the trap)" "Really?" |
I'm never really part of the stupid conversations, but I witness a lot of them.
"Ok, so where's the Panama Canal?" "Ummmm, Mexico?" and "Is your phone a LG?" "No it's a 3G." |
Excuse the subject matter, this was a real conversation with a friend and my sense of humour is a bit odd. (I don't mean any offence.) But anyway...
Me: "When I talk to you, I feel like a Jew in a Nazi shower. VERY NERVOUS!" Her: "The Holocaust?" *Blank look on the faces of both of us, but for very different reasons.* I had to then explain that the holocaust was. Wow. |
Quote:
Kudos :laughing: |
I messed that up for some reason, the conversation actually went like this:
Me: "When I talk to you, I feel like a Jew in a Nazi shower. VERY NERVOUS!" Her: What? Me: *Confused.* "The Holocaust?" *Blank look on the faces of both of us, but for very different reasons.* Unbelievable. I toned down what I actually said so I didn't cause offence. I'm SO politically correct. |
|
Sarcasm? I thought it was quite simple, I spoke with someone who didn't have a clue what the holocaust was.
|
^^ I know. I was only kidding about the cause of the nervousness. I have an odd sense of humor too. Very odd, indeed. I have to stop making film jokes. :)

A conversation regarding math rock with a friend:
Her: Hey, What'cha listenin' to? Me: Don Caballero Her: Huh? What kind of music do they make? Me: Math Rock/Post Rock Her: LOL, You geek! Don't math rock bands sing about math? Me: Uh, No? Her: No, You're wrong. Math rock is all about math. It even has the word "Math" in the name. Me: O RLY? name a math rock musician. Her: That dude who made the Pi song. Me: NO. |
I guess she thinks Metal bands sing about Metal?

^there isn't an adjective on the planet that could properly describe the both humor and tragedy of that post.

90skid is a moron of the first order, everyone knows but he's really outdoing himself right now:
90skid: I got a new mauser, jew. Me:ok I'm not a jew, white boy 90skid: I know but youre just so skinny and shrewish. 90skid:it shows evidence of judaism Me:All your guns will never make up for your tiny ****, jsyk 90skid: since when is 5 inches tiny >.< |
"Since when is 5 inches tiny?"
Surely he's joking? Tell me he's joking. He has to be joking. I feel that belongs in this thread. |
I hope so because he's quite insistent on my being jewish, people always get my ethnic background wrong. It's either that, or Mexican

Wait... at 0:50 the shark looks about 1/20th the size it does two seconds later...
