Heh, heh.
I wonder if where that person's IP is........
I have not been capable (for some time) of accessing another forum that has a neat and fun 'IP locator' thing, so I reiterate that I cannot confirm the devil be amongst us in yet another guise.
Anyway, be the devil amongst us in another guise, she has already been banned or chased from here and could mask in with a false IP. One must observe her behavior.
And to the theory that the person is a man: You're not the only one. Personally, I think it is a woman...could be wrong.
Abs, I, too, get disgusted with forum world sometimes. Hell, on FB I see my one niece proclaim she went to a certain post-secondary school. Very impressive! Yeah, she flunked finals twice and never graduated.
Another kid added TEN YEARS to his age in his bio. I called him out saying he was born '92 NOT '82. I really thought it was an innocent typo until he NEVER responded to my post. Now I have no choice but to assume he is a generic, internet liar.
Oh, who can forget? A pal's son, who flunked EVERY SINGLE YEAR OF SCHOOL INCLUDING KINDERGARTEN.....how do you flunk kindergarten??? This kid attended summer school every year AND! his parents never beat his ass once. They just threw him into the public school system and let things take their course. He lists on FB and MySpace that he attended fireman college.
Really?!
One must know math, science, chemistry, and who knows what else to be a fireman, not to mention the ton of money it costs to attend such a school. In reality, he was released from fireman college in about a month due to academic shortcomings, and perhaps financial ones, but his FB and MySpace does not reflect that.
He's been working as a roofer for some years. We had hopes he would join the military so to have a job and food and be told what to do, as that seemed the best for him, BUT the idiot child kept hurting himself in bicycle and skateboard tricks, and his stupid parents permitted him to do these things by buying new bikes and skateboards, so the idiot broke his wrist and had to have a pin installed! No military for him. No future. No guaranteed paycheck. No cheap medical. No retirement. No guaranteed housing. Just working roofing jobs until his body gives out and then what?
His parents, now divorced as the kids are grown and out of the house, are in no position to help financially support him. They just have to live with what they permitted. I wonder if they're smart enough to realize their gross, previous error, which would require a modicum of thought. Nah.
Yes, internet fibbers are everywhere. I lurk much more these days and take things at face value as you can't do otherwise without extensive research, if possible. Take the good information and use it, disregard the other. It's all face value.
Just remember, you walk amongst these internet people every day. They are people you encounter at businesses, in traffic, at medical offices, etc. The internet has proven my father true that many are liars and have very dark sides to them; Likewise with those who purport sunny personalities.
Me, I keep it all at arm's length. I enjoy interacting, but I know that I'm interacting with a truly unknown.
