  1. Well you can rot in your god-forsaken country with your bigot friends and your bloody hatred! And while the rest of the world knows knowledge and enlightenment, you'll be DEAD in your mind and DEAD in your heart, and DEAD in your lonely desolation and your endless ignorance! To think that you believe in the same God as I! You know not what you do and your own, your 'Torah' will be drive you to your doom whilst you whirl down into chaos in the torrents of your own wraith! Begone! Stay in your home and revel in your bloody isolation, you can have your country and we'll not care. For, indeed, who did you provide a home to, as we sheltered whole countries in the wake of awesome calamities? No one, but your demons whose fury you channel and manifest to storm the earth as the sky darkens and your heart hardens. Begone, and seek your dystopia not from this world! *sighs* sorry, had to get it out >__<

    Okies

    Ever heard Nate or someone else say 'okies' instead of 'okay'? Well I've been hearing him use it so much, that I started using it sometimes, even I don't really like the sound of it. Actually, I don't like it at all >__> So anyways, I was talking to someone I don't remember, and at one point in the conversation I said 'okies' instead of okay. And there was a long silence. After a while, I looked at that word and thought, "How ridiculous. It looks like a plural noun." So in a sudden and unexpected stroke of inspiration, I made it into one, and this is what I got: Okies
  6. Hugs are incredible. They are my favourite things, ever. Luc, I would like to hug people the way you do (plus wrap the arms around them), but they would get a little freaked out if I did. What I usually do is open my arms, smile, and sort of
  7. KURTIE!!! Happy Birthday!!! I hope you love it like I love you! I want to wish you good health and prosperity, many friends and great grades, I want all your dreams and wishes to come true, and for you to be able to accomplish anything you ever wanted to. Most of all, however, I want to wish you love. Love from your family, for they often the most important part of your life; love from your friends, for they are the key to happiness; love from all those around you, for to see them accept who you are is a great accomplishment; love from yourself, for you are your biggest driving force to push you to do better and better things for yourself if you believe in yourself; love from God to make things go right in your life so you may be fulfilled and happy. I want to tell you that I love you with all my heart, intimately, and even more as a friend who is there for you whenever you may need me. I want you to know that I will always be there for you through any trouble you may have, and that you can trust me to make you feel happier just you ask. Once again, have a very happy birthday, and pretend I came to your party Thanks for being such a great guy! Love, hugs, and a million kisses, Tony --
  8. Thanks, Myr, for bringing us this awesome site. Without it I probably would never have gotten to read Dom's stories, or met all the wonderful people here. This is the best community I have ever had the privelege to express my opinions in, and I hope that it will stay thus forever. Thanks for keeping it in order and for keeping us all company! You're awesome! Hugs, Tony --
  9. Haha looks like that guy got banned! How ironic. Wow look how old this post is!!!
  10. Hey Nicole! I have a story to share with you. My parents were born and raised in the Soviet Union, so their ideas of racism were quite different that us in the USA. But when I asked my mom what she thought about homosexuality, she replied that she wasn't sure, because she didn't know anything about it, but she thought that it was wrong, because that's what her mother had told her. So, I started reading up on the subject, and I came across a book called What if Someone I Know is Gay?, by Eric Marcus. I gave this book to my mom to read, and she got so into it that she stayed up until four in the morning engrossed in the writing. The book itself is basically divided into several topics, and is a big Question and Answer type of document, that answers many fundamental questions about the truths, myths, and pleasures of homosexuality, while also providing plenty of first hand experiences, both by parents and their children, and by friends who came out to each other. After my mom had finished reading the book, she came to me, and said "This book has taught me so much! I see now that I was wrong to think that being gay is bad, because you can't do anything about it, and I was really touched by the stories that I read there." It is then, that she had also read a letter that hinted at my being gay, so I knew that I had to talk to her about it, and I did. I came to her several days later, and sat down at the table. I told her that I loved her very much, and then I said "This may surprise you very much, but please don't get angry with me. I am gay. I hope this doesn't change anything between us, and I hope that we can still have the same healthy relationship we've been having all these years." To which my mom replied after a lengthy and uncomfortable pause, "This surprises me very much. Had I not read the book that you gave me, I think I might have had a heart attack, or did something irrational! But since I have read the book, I can understand your situation, and I will do my best to support you with this problem. The only things that I'm sad about is that your life will be significantly harder, and that I won't have my own grandchildren." All that is left now, is for my dad to read the book that worked miracles for my mom, and I will try to come out to him also, hoping for a similar result. I hope I am not too late with this post, and that you will find a copy of the document and ask your parents to glance at it. I am persuaded that it will cusion your blow when you tell them of your orientation. Please know that the reason our dialogue sounds so corny is because we were speaking in Russian, and this is my best shot at a translation. I wish you the best of luck, patience, and love, and I hope that all will go well for you and your family. I am happy to hear that you have a girlfriend, and I hope everything will work for you with her, also. I hope all this helps you out. Hugs, Tony --
