In Any Reformation, Poster Six Must Be Cursing Autocorrect!
[I would have gone with "In every revolution, there is one man with a vision," that Kirk says to mirror universe-Spock in the Star Trek episode "Mirror, Mirror", but then I had this second post. And Martin Luther in our world who's most associated with the historical episode we call the Reformation ... ah, that anniversary is coming up, so I'm sure I will have something else here about it.
With the exception of post thirty-one, I've scrubbed the names of non-public figures and kept the posters' spelling and grammar intact. Hey, standardized spelling didn't EXIST until the eighteenth century, so I can indulge autocorrects and sticky keyboards and fingers! Status and posts such as these I gathered throughout the second half of September I can always learn something from, David]
1. Hi all my love bunnies. Message me or something on here or text [the poster's number] so my phone is entertained lol
2. Which is why, in any reformation...
You remove those who wish for change to happen
Far, far away from those who would cause unrest and destroy you.
When I say far away, I mean far enough that only the society that wishes to implement and work and study to achieve is removed.
If that means leaving the planet,
Then that's what it means.
3. hiee all, my apoligies for not chatting lately, ive been busy working, however im taking off tomorrow and thursday and plan on spending the day here at facebook and answering all of the nice messages ive gotten from everyone, i realize i come and go a lot here during the week but as i said in an earlier status update, im not always on my computers when i visit here, talk to you ALL tomorrow or thursday. ..Huggzzzz everyone ....
4. My mind is like a wadded up spiderweb. You can't tell the individual strands apart and all you have is a stringy mess that you can't escape. Unease settles in to the darken corners waiting for the perfect opportunity to slink out and wrap it tentacles around me before I can escape. Uncertainty shoves itself down my throat and clogs up my airways making it hard to swallow around it. Agitated, I pace back and forth along a path until the grass is crumpled beneath it and no life remains. I ponder the things I want out of life and my mind just can not focus on on anything. My heart beats, but the blood that is pumped longs for something more. It doesn't belong in this place any longer. It has taken up residency elsewhere in this plane of existence. My fingers long to wrap around an object and stroke a page with short quick movements, but even that is denied me at this time. My eyes settle upon the horizon and imagine adventures just beyond, but reality bites me on the arm and brings me to my current perch. Even the comfort of words being strung together by another's pen offers no peace or contentment, but rather stabs the soul and taints its love. Around and around on the carousel I go and there is no stopping as I ride the horse up and down the pole in its predictable flow, always moving forward, but traversing no farther than the current circle.
5. When we mind your own business, we can get down to business. We'll also be too tired to mind anyone else's business.
6. Gotta love it when someone thinks they have sobering overt you but they don't! [I'm thinking this should be "something over you", your thoughts?]
7. We're not on the verge of a revival. Revival implies something's dead and God's not dead ... expect ... I said EXPECT a great awakening and empowerment and expect it's sudden impact SOON! Don't Blink!
8. I loved to hate Angelica [from Nickelodeon's Rugrats]. Like she was semi-realistic as a spoiled brat and a bully. But to be fair she did get her fair share of humanization, particularly in the films. After all when you get down to it...she was just a little kid. It's hard to truly despise someone who is...and behaves...that young.
9. Interesting fact: the old English "wick" also means "twist". In that sense, to be wicked is to be "twisted".
10. Annual picnic for work. What did they have that I could et? Potato chips, 2 types I cupcakes, brownie and a chocolate chip cookie. To look at my plate you wouldn't think I typically eat healthy
11. Pop SOngs fer the ends of Time
(after Clapton, You look wonderful...)
valley city pops up from the river bed dark
and fogged in flannel of my highway hum-
Grandma's asleep in the back seat now,
and the Super Moon does a stuporous rise,
cut in half by a steak of cloud-
then she slides up more, old orange and gold,
and her bottom is gone in clouds
while radio streams those 70's songs,
purgatorial lines from the lost old tunes,
and the big fruit orb is a perfect ball
on old 94 in the darkling plains of pain
as Clapton sings in a cocaine croon,
"My.... tonight",
and so from here to Fargo West
all kinds of things are kicking loose,
in the name of love, and sex and change
and the good mistakes and bad we can't deny
12. College Football doesn't handle idiots any better than Pro Football The sport and the TV puts them out there as "Heroes" - instead of REAL Heroes, like Policemen, Firemen and Servicemen - and then can't figure out why the fans don't agree. It's very sad. My personal feelings are that for both college sports - of ALL kinds - that if they're arrested for a felony, ANY felony, they should be suspended. Conviction should be a permanent ban from college and pro athletics. As long as they are presented as Heroes to kids, they should have serious consequences for their bad behavior. A teacher convicted of any sex crime doesn't get to go back in a school. Ever. They can go back into society once they've served their time, just not as a teacher. SMH. This shouldn't be so hard. Oh wait. It's not. At least for those of us that aren't thinking with our wallet. OK. I'll get down off my box now ...
13. It has taken me a long time over the years to build up my self esteem and confidence in who I am..I have done this and am proud of who I am and what I have become sure I still have some work to do on myself as we all do ..But I will never be perfect..but perfect for me ..I love myself..and I will never let another man break me down again..I am strong Inside and out and mentally..God made me.. me and I thank him for that...
14. I think a more fun passive aggressive way to do this would be like 1. I have knee caps 2. My hair is black. 3. Im a write etc. Hahah
15. I know nobody will see my status, but sometimes, when I am bored, I go into the garden, cover myself with earth, and pretend I am a carrot.
16. Oh freddled gruntbuggly? ... thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee.
Groop I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes.
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, see if I don't!
17. Today was the first time since working at 5 Star, I've had to leave a note for the other shifts that read. "Despite the really bad smell, the pool of blood next to the dumpster and the large amount of flies, there is NOT a dead body in the dumpster...We checked." (FYI. It was a garbage bag of packaged meat.)
18. McCoy, Tennant, and Capaldi [Scotland-born actors who've played the Doctor from Doctor Who]nearly became non-british today, but the election [a referendum for Scotland's independence from the United Kingdom] didn't go that way.
19. I don't mind following God's rules, but I don't do it to keep from going to hell, or to keep my salvation. I do it to honor my God and because I love Him.
20. Seeing your friends succeed at life and love is the spiritual equivalent of eating your favorite dessert.
21. Vegans..... A religion within itself. Makes no sense, pseudo science and a constant attempt to enforce opinions on the majority ....
22. Looking for my cell phone. Not in my purse, my bedroom, in the car. So I start retracing my steps and find it.....in the freezer. True story.
23. Nothing more frustrating than repeatedly seeing children broken by the adults who are supposed to protect them. I'm gonna need walking shoes to burn some off this frustration off!
24. I have issues with color. This looks great, but the majority of photos don't look this great in color. This is an exception.
25. ATTENTION PEOPLE OF THE BOOK OF FACE: ( TO borrow [this poster's friend]'s quote)
DO NOT SEND ME PICTURES OF YOUR NAKED BODIES.
DO NOT SEND ME PICTURES OF YOUR TOOLS.
DO NOT SEND ME LEWD COMMENTS.
DO NOT ADDRESS ME IN ANY DEROGATORY TERMS.
DO NOT MAKE COMMENTS ABOUT MY BODYPARTS.
DO NOT TELL ME YOU DIG FAT CHICKS,I AM YOUR STYLE, YOU LIKE LARGE WOMEN - I DON'T CARE!
Failure to comply with this notifications will get you reported. No exceptions.
Do I make myself clear?
26. Love like a sky, NO LIMIT
27. Three things u will always find on a Halifax [Nova Scotia, where this poster's from] street corner : a streetwalker, a police officer & a Timmy's lol
28. Passive aggressive comments on social media are never a good idea. It may feel like you are sneaking a dig in at the time, but in reality it is transparent, rude, immature...and there forever. Rise above. [OH I NEED THIS!]
29. I apologize if this is a bit long but I saw this on Linkara's twitter and it was too awesome not to share:
"Dear DC Comics: Pease grow up and stop being embarrassed that you make superhero comics. We're all adults and we like them you'd think given your continued bad relationship with Alan Moore, you wouldn't listen to him, but you seem to really be taking his "superheroes are for little kids" thing to heart. Just accept it: superheroes are cool and people like them. People do not like Batman because he's a guy who fights crime. They like him because he dresses like a bat to do it. If you don't want to write comics and make TV shows about brightly-colored heroes punching villains, perhaps you should have considered a different career path. It's not like there aren't any other writing opportunities for comic books. But as it happens, you are a company about superheroes. So for the love of crap, just make superhero stories. And if this isn't your fault, that it's the WB who are the morons who don't get this, QUIT. They will never understand it and you will only be more and more frustrated by their idiocy. Go the Image route and make a new company and do great things (eventually). Because REAL maturity is acknowledging that something is silly... and loving it anyway and not caring what other people think.'
30. Just remember that everything comes full circle and the devil will have his dues when you sell your soul.
31. Ride hard
Live hard
Die a Christian
Don't let go of God
Follow your dreams
Stay humble and calm
Don't let life pass you by

[Hey, I figure poets want to be recognized!]
32. Its question time with the crazy aussie: When does a product crosses the line between influence and ripping off of originally source?
33. *tap tap tap* this thing on?
I know things come up and stuff happens that disrupt our regularly scheduled events. If that is the case, then kindly say so. But, if you say you are going to do something - follow through.
If you agree to make an exchange of services with another writer, then honor your end of the bargain. If you have no intention of doing so - then don't agree to the terms.
It quickly becomes apparent who is good to their words and whose word you cannot trust.
Don't be that guy!
Nobody likes that guy. Nobody trusts that guy, Nobody wants to be friends with that guy.
If you are going to call yourself a professional then ACT like a professional.
*gets off soap box*
34. Silk Almond milk is boss
35. Really? Really???? I just had an unwanted visitor in my car. I was sitting waiting for [poster's school-age daughter] minding my own business when all of a sudden this overly hairy and slightly stinky intruder joined me. I panicked a bit, let out a bit of a scream, then realized I needed to control the situation. So I opened the car door.....and let the stupid SQUIRREL out!!!! Mental note, close windows when waiting for [her daughter] outside her school!!!!
36. Looks good, AND looks edible? Where are the Admins? We absolutely cannot tolerate such blasphemy on this page! Bring on the sardine jello molds!
37. I was feeling very depressed about not getting much writing done, then I listened to a podcast and he reminded me to track all of my successes. Feeling better now, and having a better outlook. Looking forward to a fresh slate tomorrow - I have a short to od list - but really want to get these things marked off! Good night and good eats to all!
38. 1 I am thankful for my Bethany family.
2). I am thankful that I have a job that keeps me in a natural setting and out of the city.
3) I am thankful for the challenges that life has thrown my way....they have taught me and made me stronger.
I nominate [three of the poster's friends, and I still should do this!]. For 5 days you need to list 3 things you are grateful for and nominate three people.
39. Reading through submission guidelines...I need more coffee and some Tylenol, please.
40. Thank you my dearest friends and family. Your prayers have started to work. I mustn’t lean on my own understanding but on Him. As much as I said faith will sustain me, yet the devil still try to mock me. But then, even our Lord had doubts when He cried at the cross, "Father, Father, why has Thou forsaken me" knowing that He had to fulfill a great prophecy. If He gave it all for me and you, His children, I can do this with Him by my side and stomp the devil.
Yesterday evening, He led me to others carrying heavier crosses. It humbled me greatly to see a FB friend who may not have long to live. Remembering another here that is clinging on to hope for a miraculous healing, while another waiting on a necessary medical transplant.
I have so much to be thankful for.
Not proselytizing here, most call on Jesus, some pray to Allah, one beseech Buddha, a couple may call on good spirits. Your God listens.
He says the prayers of a righteous man is powerful. I am blessed to have so many righteous people here, praying for me.
In return, I will do the same for you. God knows your needs.
Love to all and again thank you.
41. It really depends on the reader/audience, but when I think of my favorite "romances" they always leave the ending ambiguous. 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind', '10 Items or Less' - that kind of thing. It just resonates for me more. Life doesn't have pat endings, why should your story?
42. I tried. I'm not trying anymore.
I've been gracious and patient.
It's over.
Effective immediately, I'm excommunicating two individuals, who I am certain don't care anyway.
Little known fact, when someone gives you their all and pledges their loyalty to you, and you ignore them....
It hurts.
43. [Poster's daughter]: I found one of your hairs in the peanut butter
Me: that's nasty. It can't be mine.
[Poster's daughter]: it's purple.
Me: I love peanut butter okay?!
44. WND [World Net Daily, a socially conservative online news source] asked Loudon why he, a New Zealander, even cares what happens to America.
Loudon, the former vice president of the ACT Party, the New Zealand version of the Libertarian Party, explained, "If America goes down, every country goes down. Russia, China and Iran are expanding. America is retreating. If this continues, the bad guys will carve up the planet amongst themselves. There is nowhere to run."

45. What's that? Nerds reacting badly to both diversity in comics and a story change? [Written in reaction to some not liking that Marvel Comics' latest iteration of Thor is a woman.] That's a new one ... But in all seriousness let them rage. Their hate sustains me
46. [A radio announcer at my favorite radio station] --- you're the man.
And just to satisfy your curiosity, hot dogs are packaged in packages of TEN and hot dog buns are packaged in packages of EIGHT not to irritate you, but because the packing machines are designed to handle that -- most hot dogs and buns go to major users of them in retail sales (restaurants, vendors, supermarkets) and not consumers -- it's more cost-efficient.
This machine-is-set-up-that-way also explains why you see Braille on a drive-up ATM when ... we sincerely hope no one who's driving is legally blind! (Though lately in this area, I doubt it ;)
Great show and great ministry, [announcer's name]! Keep on going, David
47. I talk while I troubleshoot.
