Oh boyo, i really don't wanna buy into this Farkel/Teejay spat ... butt .. since we're all friends i'll put my carps on the table.
Farkel is screwed. At least TJ and he agree on that. TJ is screwed too but with a different nut. I count both these men as my dear friends and it doesn't worry me in the least that they get on like a kookaburra and a goanna. It confuses me, but so do the ways of clashing men generally. I guess that makes me screwed too.
I kinda fell in love with bro.farkel at first sight. Our eyes met across a crow dead room and the rest is his story. It was in the fading twilight of last century that my somewhat nieve eyes first felt the farkelite glare. His distainfull look of concerned disapproval in responce to my entering the halloed turf of H20's sacred apostate ballpark, handing out bouquets to battered watchtower defenders and serving Jehovah as beast I could in that corrosive venge filled cauldrin made me laugh. H20 regulars sickened me by battering the bejesus outta newbies not toeing the party/anti-party line. Thus my taking on the role of lifting up the underdogs. (breathtakingly seriously mad though some of them were .. perhaps i could relate to their insanity, perhaps my feminine side wants me to play mother .. God knows lol)
Cygnus, you still hung up on grammar and spilling or you gone and got yourself edumacated?
Anyway, a few weeks went by and people actually started to understand what i was saying. (bit of a worry in itself) MtZion, a giant Israeli Eskimo planting a flower garden atop MtCarmel by day and spending nights in Elijahs cave posting big words and bahai thoughts and Marilyn an atheistic dragon woman from Melbourne were the first to understand where this mad iconoclastic taoist was comming from. (Elijah, if you're out there we miss ya)
I thought it hillarious that i was able to get up the great farkelmeisters nose for a few weeks and be called several naughty names .. ooo that really hurt (well if i understood american it might have.. lol.) Farkel proved to be a much cooler guy than I first thought. All that stiff arrogant, bluff and bravardo is just a front folks. In real life the mans a bigger pussy cat that our resident SirFRED'the mange'HALL. Farkel, you make me laugh when you try and act tough, you're as big a whimp as me when it comes to really hurting people and it shows! Be true to your nature, we love ya for it (mostly) .. anyway, you can fool newbies into thinking you're a tough old boot full o' sour dough but don't think you're conning anyone who knows ya .. hmmp .. who ever heard of boxing piano player? ;)
My only disappointment with you brother is when you've gone over the top with/about women. Standard feminist dogma states that men and women should be treated equally on a board like this but I don't know any standard feminists and don't believe a word of it anyway. (OK I'll can the 'soft peddle to wimmin' lecture .. for now!
Teejay is a good, loyal friend of mine too. We met via h20 and he gave me some great insights into the history and characters posting on h20 (as did WorldlyWitness aka Rex) Teejay is a good bloke, the same age as me (44 .. bloody birthdays!!!) Like me, he enjoys pricking the bubbles of the overinflated and watching the mighty tumble (or at least bend a bit) As a father of two grown-up daughters, TJ has delighted me with tales of his wonderful loving relationship with a young girl of his own making (he reconds she isn't going through 'terrible twos' but i recon he's a touch love struck and probable thinks her little tantrums in the supermarket aile are cute or justified or some other warped nonsense .. careful tj, girls have some voodoo charm thing when it comes to dads. ;)
I thought it very funny a few weeks back when tj threw this place into disarray by starting fights with 'the big boys'. (Most here didn't share my warped laughter or know tjs history .. I'd been waiting over a year and watched tthe bubble burst from a position of insight few shared .. hey julie, we all gotta vent sometime .. repression be buggered, long live honest exchange and blood on the chatroom floor ;) I really am a warped screwed up bastard and watch the fights here with headshaking bemusement and often more knowledge of the causes involved than those thrusting the barbs (or so it often seems)
.. anyway i've missed my train of thought again ..
Farkel, ya grumpy old bastard, your being screwed up doesn't justify your being rude and stuff and TeeJay, any more whinging and I'm gonna declare you an 'onery P.O.M. (oops .. no english posting here are there? .. shh)
Dannybear? Who mentioned Danny? Danny is a wonderful guy, the best! The least screwed up bloke on the nett. Danny took some totally unjustifiable kickings on h20. The big bear is my personal friend and one of natures gentleman .. but alas, i'm not .. say anything bad about him and I'll personally track you down and plant my right boot firmly up yer bum .. wether you're a girl, boy or woman trapped inside an elephant mans body (like my friend logical)
unclebruce, dropping his dacks and raising his butt to serve Jehovah. (just like SirFredHALL (Earl of Succinct Knight of Endless Laughter), Friday (the bloodhound with the broken nose) and youknowhatidon't(a seriously screwed up aposthate poopy)
PS: You Americans are such warmhearted up front folk .. may you always wear your hearts on your sleeves and have the balls and ovories to call things as you see 'em.
