I've been away - what's happended since early December?

Post: # 1649753Post saintspremiers »

Ok, last week I arrived back from nearly 6 weeks on the East coast of the USA. It was a wonderful trip, but missed our food as you'd expect.

I didn't frequent the forum as much as usual, can someone please give me a summary of the past 7 weeks??

I guess not much went on given the Xmas shutdown.

Freeman - shot - no good
Skill level - way below par
Older players - getting older
Younger players - not up to it
Paddy should wear an inflatable 'air bag' type helmet
Food still too expensive at the footy
JB is still not Bontempelli (although we now have multiple JB's)
Saints are relocating to India
The Saints website is horrendous

Bloke with funny hair became president of the USA and all hell has broken out!!!


I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

I am guessing he knows about the bloke with the funny hair - and the hell that followed.

Some guy looking like Kyrgios drove up the Bourke St mall.

I left before Donny became supreme ruler of the free and great world.

But when I visited Washington DC at Xmas time they were already setting up the inauguration stage and some fences were already up. Thea security in the States is impressive, especially DC

That's great that you can get so much mirth out of a guy pushed so far to the edge where he might have tried to top himself and possibly damaging his organs and traumatise his children. Maybe you drop by the ER on the hope that you'll see folk who tried to suicide or overdosed and be able to have a big belly laugh at their expense.

I guess its easy to put words like "compassion" and "forgiveness" in your sig block to self-consciously proclaim your higher level of humanity to all and sundry whilst you take the cheapest and nastiest of shots at a defeated man. I guess its all that "integrity" you make sure we know about with every post.

lol


he aint dead
and if he was he'd wouldn't be recalibrating his pain relief
and if he was it'd be prissy little hypocrits like yourself who'd be saying he took the easy way out
and if he was he'd most certainly of got that way by his own hand
and if he was he'd have woken up from the cultural consensus 'alive on earth' dream and be recalibrating his intentions in relationship to integrity forgiveness compassion and reponsibility as we all do before moving forward

though , seeing as he's not dead
if he wakes up from his woe is me egoic creation he'll recalibrate around the exact same intentions
and if he doesnt wake up from his egoic creation no doubt he'll keep traumatising his children and damaging his organs.

a much bigger lol @ 'pushed to the edge
'defeated man '

funny that ay
ALWAYS someone elses doing , someone elses fault
when its no compassion forgiveness integrity or responsibilty of and for Self
that allowed him to slide to the edge

best u keep you're focus on the main game
(your like a drowning manchild in a sandpit)
and wake up out of that stage one belief that 'Life or Its participants are doing it to you' or anyone else for that matter

forgiveness and responsibility will help you with that

your penchant for judging that that you have no understanding of shall also fall away
be grateful for that
as those around you are grateful

then wake up from that stage two belief that you are doing Life
and the fuckups are your fault and the successes your doing

compassion and clarity based observational skills will help

integrity will guide u through the stage 3 wake up
... if u can find any

the paradox u strange little man
do u see it ... does the light turn on in shallowland

FOR self OF self not about self u sad little cork in the arsehole of human evolution.

Anyways
thanx for the condemnation

come again anytime
but bring a game that holds water u condecending little know all that knows fuckall.

ps

death is not the opposite of Life
death is the opposite of birth

wtf would u know about suicide attempts suicide successes drug overdoses accidental or intentional
... u'd have to understand Life to understand exit points.
