How are you doing buddy?  I know, lame question, but I've been thinking about you too.

I've been where you are before, so I might have a little bit on an idea what you're going through.  

It’s a weird old time, sorting out Dad's paperwork (mostly my sister but I’m helping to remember details like my grandmother’s occupation ), trying to offer support to my cousin who's cancer diagnosis has changed for the better but now has chemo and super chemo to deal with, and then dealing with lawyers about my aunt's estate (yep over twelve months and still going) none of the family and friends are causing problems, it’s the property managers for her unit. 
 

I just want to go back to bed…

God Bucket I am so sorry to hear that, I am here for you buddy!

There's the letter and the spirit, since I basically never make claims anymore.

The letter of the treaty is all that matters.

You're invited to someone's house, and you sit down on the sofa. You see a platter of cookies on the table in front of you. Now, this particular type of cookie happens to be your favorite in the whole wide world. Do you grab them all and cram them into your mouth? NO. Instead, you politely take one, or maybe two, and leave the rest for the other guests.

Explain to them the insane claims you just made, my counter claims, your proposal for a trade, the conditions I set on such a trade and your response.

Fine!

Yesterday afternoon, I thought about claiming a few actors from several dramas I was watching or will be soon, and I was going to let Spikey know in our PMs. But that same day, Spikey called me a greedy bitch, so I decided to claim everyone in those dramas just to spite him. 

Spikey got mad, and started whining and said he wouldn't quit whining until I give him two actors that I had just claimed. I thought long and hard about his proposal, and came to the decision that I would not give him those two actors, because I'd rather deal with Spikey's whining than give in to his ridiculous demands.

But of course, Spikey didn't take it to well, and started threatening to recall two of my actors from previous trades. I would not stand for that threat, and decided to use a precedent that Spikey previously established: not consenting to recalls. 

Realizing that I had him beat there, Spikey changed tack, and decided to make his own separate claims on several actors from two other dramas. I protested his claims from one of those dramas, but of course, Spikey ignored me.

Therefore, I decided to propose a trade for those two actors from said drama by offering two of my own that I knew Spikey was interested in. And Spikey said he would accept the trade if, in his own words, I accepted his one condition (it was three conditions, actually): I could never demand that Spikey give those two actors back to me, never pretend I gave them to him for free, and I could never recall them.

That last condition was especially ridiculous because not even a couple hours previously, Spikey was threatening to recall two of my actors! Even so, I gave his proposed conditions serious consideration.

Afterwards, I told Spikey that I would be willing to trade one of my actors under his conditions, with the full expectation that our negotiations would continue from there.

But alas, Spikey threw another fit because I didn't completely capitulate to his demands and ended our discussion without making the trade in the end. I of course graciously accepted the trade wouldn't be happening and left it at that.

Tldr: Spikey is an unreasonable bitch.

Depends where are the cookies. On the coffee table? Then Drew could reach them. On the dinner table? There's no question cause he wouldn't be able to reach them

Cute, now take out about 3/4 of Drewth and bullshit, recognize that all the "recall" bullshit was 100% started by you right here, on this board, and I was kidding when I said that.  The two actors I asked about were from a series that I specifically recommended to you, I thought you might remember that but of course not.  

As I've mentioned again and again, I don't generally make claims, but if your still claiming the entire casts of series out of spite, which I was well aware you were doing I could play the same game, but still not be as ridiculous as you.  So I claimed the cast of a single new Japanese series, and two Korean actors that I knew you had forgotten about.

So, what did you do?  You who had just claimed two entire casts of other series, and most of another cast (except of two actors that I already claimed last year), you said "I don't consent," like I need your fucking permission to claim Korean actors, which by itself it completely ridiculous and the word you're suddenly fond of "unreasonable."  But as you so cutely pointed out doesn't matter when a claim is made, you're going to do whatever you want, so I can return the same energy.  Which I did.

So you asked for a trade, everyone on this board has seen this movie before, and I know better now.  So, I told you I'd be open to a trade, but that you would have to shut the fuck up about the trade forever, and not  bring it up here constantly when your panties get in a little bunch.  Like you constantly do for the other trades we made. 

And you said you could only agree to that with one of them.  You couldn't act like an adult and control yourself for both of them, only one.  Which we both know meant none of them.  You have a tendency to go back on whatever you agreed to constantly.  And you have the audacity to call me unreasonable .

So, no deal.

And then you

I was hoping to ask if you guys could send good healing thoughts for my friend son who is named skye. He needs all the vibes that he can get he had a bad night last night and needs lots of help! Thank you so much for any help you can give!

Of course. I've thought of him often since we learned of the accident now I can put a name to them.

I take it that his prior claims were news to you. As recompense I'm sending this one specifically for you Spike.

Page, do not leave a platter of BoomBoom's favorite cookies on the table in front him. There'll be naught but crumbs left.

Fair point. I neglected to consider his limitations of stature.

Greetings Albert. I'm well enough thank you. Being a bit lazy at the moment when in fact I should be doing some weeding, etc. It's just a bit warm and muggy so I’m procrastinating. That and the drowsyies are suggesting a short nap might be in order.
