Well, as for me I come friend a crazy family. Pops has a hard time getting along with us or anyone for that matter. It's pretty crazy, but things have gotten better over the years. Things don't get physical between him and I anymore, and since I've been back this time I've had no real heated areguments with him. He's just old as hell and I think finally to tired to be such a rage aholic.
Mom is cool as hell. I don't know how she's stayed with pops so long, but I can see when she must have really liked him. When I was a kid before his back got bad (the problems started in Nam) he was cool, and then the frustration/Nam PTSD just made him flip out. He worked me and my brothers like dogs. He still tries to, but I'm a grown ass man and have shit to do, but when we were kids we'd regularly spend all day underneath our house for weeks fixing shit scared out of our minds in the dark. One of the support beams under the house fell on me and it took all three of them to lift it off me. I was 10 and thought I was dead, and now he says "I never asked you to do anything outrageous!" I just laugh it off. He wont ever understand, and it's not like that can ever be changed. My older bro and little bro can't let things go, and I see it really hurting them and it sucks. I'm just sick of being around so much anger and frustration. It's really draining. Hell when I'm not living here I have to listen to phone calls regularly with everyone complaining about everyone. I've got my own shit to worry about I don't need that.
Really as far as growing up I was pretty much ignored unless if it was about school, chores, or some project. The classic kid who was forgotten at the grocery store and other public places regularly. Once mom got over her depression when I got older around my teens we hung out alot, and I'm still very close to her.
It's ok, Pep. If it's just me you have a problem with, I can deal with it. But at least cut down on the put down remarks on most of my battles. You said you couldn't put a finger on what it was, I suggest until you do, just leave me be. (Unless I have done something wrong, of course)
Yes, Lilac, we should break out the foam bats, but that's what I won't make a battle of. Go for it any and everybody. lol
Oh yeah, and I say I would rather hang out with my dad because he doesn't nag me to death like my mom and my grandma do. He doesn't scream and yell at me for something trivial and petty like my mom does whenever I see her. He lets me finish my sentences before he replies to them with an intelligent answer. He has always worked his ass off supporting our family while my mom sat at home doing nothing. To give her credit, she has a part time job that she has had for a few years now but she works from home and somehow she just isn't on the up and up about things for that reason. He would do anything for my mom though I think he goes a bit too far sometimes...like as in allowing her to drive the brand new large Lex sedan while he is stuck driving a fucking little Corolla that he barely fits in. He is a very tall guy. I think a lot of you men allow the woman to get away with too much shit sometimes and it's all because of the fear or the woman withholding sex or the fear of being nagged to death. Grow some balls boys :)
And I have to agree with Pep on something...I have always preferred hanging out with guys too. Some of my best friends have been guys. Guys are solid where women are squishy. Guys think with the power of two heads..uh..guys don't bitch and nag unless they are a little funny if ya know what I mean, Fred.
I'm not mad at you Pep, it just seems you say one thing one time, then turn around later and say something totally opposite. All I'm saying is, I called you on it.
I told you what I told you because of the context of the conversation. Something I just thought you would like to know. If you don't want to read it or you want to deny it or you're getting mad at me just for tell you something then so be it. Also, about the "beef" (lolmeat) thing. I have nothing totally against you. It just that we seem to get into disagreements easily (like now).
First off, I don't know you Pep, so let's clear that up right now. Secondly, you don't know me either, Pep, so stop acting like you do. You have done that from Day 1.
Secondly, you said you had no real beef with me, but yet, I have your quote,
"
But the only "normal visiting" user that comes to this site that I have disagreements with is you.
Now, you said you had no real beef with me, yet I just quoted you saying you did.
Also, I don't want to hear your life story as a child. That's not my business, and I'm sure you and a lot of others had it rough too. Sure so did I, but that's no reason to talk about it with someone else you never met. (Unless you know that person in Real Life)
Being in during the war hasn't any bearing on what we are talking about either, so please come up with something else. It's getting old hearing the same excuses like 'I can't put my finger on it.'

Family's not a good subject for me haha.
Woo that arguement made me laugh.

Yeah...well I got beef wif evewhebody so go get those fuckin foam bats so I can start wailin on some people. Fuck all!!!!! I'm a machine!!!!!
I don't see how you "called me on it". When you said if I had "beef" with you, I took if as if I have a problem with you, and I don't.
