Moms using cell phones instead of engaging with their children

[Harvest Moon]

So yes, Duchess, it is a chose.

So what you're saying then is that those who join the military are doing so in order to boost their own egos? Do I understand that correctly?

Yes, I believe in many cases, certain members of the society only join the military to boost their own egos.

I am not saying that is the case with all members of the military. I respect the military and am married to a vet, the daughter of a proud WW2 vet.

[Harvest Moon]

Well at least I got this off the racial slant...

[IMaDick]

It sounds like harvestmoons man got a dear john letter while he was in Iraq.

I don't know you either, but I can tell you're a twat, One of those sperm donar recepticles that thinks the kids from a sperm and egg are just yours.

eventually your kids will grow up and you will find out what the cost was.

yep you're a twat no doubt about it at least that is what you would amount to in my world.

Hey IMaDick, You are way off base there. My ex-husband, the Father of my children, is a really good man and he has done the best he could in terms of being a Father. Other than saying that he cares more about money than family, I never put him down and never will. It was well before the war in Iraq that we parted ways. You don't need to know more.

My children are grown up, basically. One is working in its field of choice after obtaining its master's degree and the other is just starting grad school. Both successful, both bright, both with morals and both do not text or use cell phones at the dinner table. The are children, not "kids".

Now to give you a little bit of insight on me. I am married to a Vietnam Vet, who, luckily, never saw combat. I am a liberal/tree hugger when it comes to women's rights, pro-choice, environmental and social issues...but I am a also life member of the NRA and have my own guns. Hence, the move from NJ to NC...it makes shooting a hell of a lot easier. Will I kill a deer? No...will I cook and eat the kills that my husband makes? Hell, yes, gladly... I love to cook and bringing new things for me to cook is a challenge that I gladly accept.

So now...let's see how that flies.

As for Paulistano, just ignore that being behind the curtain....

Should I add a signature?
"I am a gun carrying liberal"

I find "it's" to be an interesting term in relation to ones children.

You are who you are and you are to me what I tell you you are.

Sorry, what does that mean?

You sound quite liberal, I am also very liberal, I live and let live. Instead of bitching about everything like some others.

Ima...Ummm...There is no need for you to know if my children are male, female, cross-gendered, black, white, or purple, so I use "it"... But they are still my children and not "kids".

And you still remind me of my 9^th grade "typing" teacher, the mean old gray-haired lady, Mrs. Dick, first name Ima.

live and let live.

Around here some peoples mottos are more like "live and never cease to interfere in the lives of others".

[Duchess]

I just want to go on record saying that Mock is bipartisan. Carry on.

Paulistano and White Pud, You are not really part of this discussion, you were just adding to the racial slant. So I just dismissed your comments while making my response.

HarvestMoon's response, thanks Duchess

Neither of us were talking to you, something you must be used to in life by now if you talk how you post.

I think you are under the mistaken impression that anybody around here gives a flying fuck about you.

Quite the opposite, I just assume that nobody here cares, which is what makes Mock a great place to express my opinions. I can and will say what I want. Stir the pot or kiss asses as the opportunities arise.

[Mommabear]

Maybe she is trying to get to work but the babysitter called off. Since you brought military into this, maybe her husband just died and she is trying to pull it all together. Maybe, her husband just left her. Who the fuck knows. It is all speculation. What is not speculation is that you are a judgmental woman with a very long ass nose.

[BlueTiki]

Stir the pot or kiss asses as the opportunities arise.

I appreciate options.

The same ol', same ol' is too predictable and dull.

[Cracker]

The only apparent fact is that you use this thread to make silly stereotypical remarks. What a sad fact.

I have already explained my views on race. You can find them here: http://mockforums.net/thread-4821.html?highlight=Truth

Honestly, I don't care to explain myself to you. Because I don't care what you think. That's how life works. I don't care what you think. You don't matter to me. Cracker is the Honey Badger of Mock.

Now, regarding the above post: Stereotypes exist because a large number of people exhibited the behavior for a prolonged time over a large area and people noticed. Don't blame whitey for stereotypes earned honestly by black folks. You are robbing them of all the hard work they put in making those stereotypes a reality. They aren't silly. They are true for a large number of that population. When I see more ghetto mothers with aprons instead of booty shorts, we can discuss this issue again.

You sure know how to buzz-kill the American Dream!

[Fibonacci Prima]

Sexist!

[Cracker]

I´ve never been a victim.

Did you see my thread on douchebags who have Latin signatures? It applies: http://mockforums.net/thread-6107.html

You are positioning yourself as a righter-of-wrongs and savior to ignorant Mockers. The problem is that we are all educated and say what we want to say without shame or guilt. You are a caricature of the Upstanding Liberal Citizen. You are not original or a breath of fresh air. You are more like a fart. Frrroooppp. Frap, frap, frap. (Because your ass cheeks smack together when you finally force one out.)

If you were TRULY liberal, you wouldn't get your panties bunched about MY opinion. You aren't a true liberal, you are a nigger lover. That is different.

[BlueTiki]

Somehow that level of pig ignorance is more associated with males, there is seemingly equal levels of idiocy across the gender spectrum.

And now proffering stereotypical observations?

Now what was said about this type of behavior?

Wait . . . I remember.

"What a sad fact."

[Cracker]

Can we stop pretending racism is white people hating on black people?

There are large groups of EVERY color person who has reservations about other races. To pretend otherwise is bullshit.
You can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN67KJdd6...r_embedded#!

As far as cell phones, young people are retarded with them. Mine know to mute them if they are with me. I hate trying to have a conversation with someone who checks their damn phone all the time.

[sally]

Most black people are loud and obnoxious, that's just the way it is. It's why my kids don't like going to school. Not because of the color of their skin, but because the majority do not know how to behave. Would you enjoy doing your math work in an insane asylum, because that's what it may as well be.

White people are equally assholes, but in a different way. At least you can get some peace and quiet around them.
