its true i thought it was calorties with a T randomly inserted. it isnt? all these years i was saying calorties. thanks for the help. i think i like you. i also thought we live in ameica. we dont? wasnt a typo i really thought we live in ameica. i thought it was named after the famed italian ameigo vespucci. not really. ladies are lovely for a myriad of reasons. no, no, Marin is crying that he actually thought they were called calorties. it would be typo if i spelled it right. i am glad we are discussing this. well i hope he converts those morons who dont believe. thats what they need more than anything. well, ok they need food and economic freedom and democracy and peace. but also sorcerers like your brother. wizards are important i hope your brother does a bang up job saving magic souls or whatever. sweet. then perhaps we can accept that real poverty comes from economic opression, like the nepalese are dealing with, and we americans are not. but we will be dealing with these sort of problems if we continue down the road to economic oppression, which is paved with people crying about the income gap, and class conflict. darling i told you a million times i make tons of mistakes and that i think you are a delight. love your energy and spunk.
perhaps i was mistaken. i am not terribly worried about it, my sweet. everyone makes mistakes. its ok if i was wrong, i dont mind. if you are helping correct me then thanks! cheers. maybe i make tons of mistakes all the time. do me a solid and keep track, i am too lazy. oh lord so lazy. hi five. i believe that my argument was that the poor in america are not actually that poor. i was essentially kinda agreeing with the original post about folks on public assistance, who are for the most part abusing the system. not everyone, but quite a few. we could discuss that if you would like, or you could continue on your angry rant at me, which i hpoe you do, because its very cute. if you want to make me sad, just ignore me.
once again your post makes assumptions about me that you cannot possibly know which requires a certain amount of arrogance. I refuse to patronize myself, you or the good people of this forum by listing the laundry list of examples of poor people who are NOT fat single mothers with cable tv. you seem to be a relatively intelligent person so you know exactly what I am talking about. you are just trying to be contrary. your argument that even poor people in america are rich is beyond absurd. all of the reasoning you present to support this argument are contingent upon all things being equal even though they are not. In America if you live in a grass hut down by the river you will likely have your children taken by social services and/or you'll be arrested for trespassing. My point is that being poor in Botswana is not equal to being poor in America because the cost of surviving in America is greater. i challenged you to explain how all poor people were "fat single mothers with cable tv." you have since avoided my challenge by insisting that it was my responsibility to list the obvious, changing the subject to poor in america vs. poor in botswana and attacking my intellect. I am sure this method works with most but to me it just makes you look immature. just admit that you overspoke and we'll move on to something else.
at the end of the day you realize some people aren't worth your time or energy and all you can do is pray.
yes, I like to give most people the benefit of the doubt but occasionally I run across someone not even worthy of that. unfortunately Martin appears to be one of those. thankfully most people are more humble and gracious.
poverty is defined as 20 thousand here i think? billions of people on earth would love to make 20 thousand. you would probably only live in a grass hut by the river if you are a drug addict. if you are just poor, like you lost your job, you would move into a homeless shelter or cheap motel until you got another job. what is there to explain? if you cant understand simple sentences then i can try to help. what part dont you understand? not avoiding i am asking you directly which part you dont understand. i want you to learn. i actually underspoke, there are not really any poor people in america. not even fat single mothers.
again, seriously, i want to thank your for praying. it means alot. for my sake i hope you are an effective prayer-doing person. do me a favor and make these prayers extra intense. i mean like pray hard like you mean it. like squish your face up and concentrate and shoot those prayers hard, right at jesus!
oh don't worry Martin, we're friends. we almost have to be 12-14 times per year for 3-4 hour interludes while the Tigers play. this is more than you will ever be friends with the poor so I consider myself lucky.
