rat_bastard wrote:Ironically, I am the only child my parents planned on having...
My father planned me. He just lied to my mother and told her he was sterile.
They were married when I was conceived, but they weren't married to each other until after I was born. As I understand it, I was instrumental in my mother's divorce from her then husband.
That tells me why he didn't like me and why I was supposed to be an abortion. It doesn't tell me why she didn't like me.

There's a reason...and a very good one...that I have certain people in this forum blocked both here and on Facebook.
I can see an illustration of that nearly every time I come here.

Apparently i'm the reason they both dropped out of college and never had real careers *shrugs* they didn't have any more kids either, because i was "soooo horrible." Heh.
I was an accident. No biggie. I think most children are actually.
Oh yeah, i'm michelle. i'm the one who lacks the creativity to come up with a really cool Palladium name, and fell back on the screen name she's had since highschool for the purpose of the boards. Trust me, it's better than the names i've come up with for my characters. And i'm a girl too. So i totally challenge that theory that there are no girls on the internet, lol.
Sorry...No Girls Allowed....

Greyaxe=Tim. Greyaxe was a 12'6" Ice Eye wolven wizard, my first Palladium character ever who was retired when he reached 15th level and went to atlantis and became a BIo borg. Way too munchkin to be played anymore.

Lies. You may be by birth, but you are as good-natured as they come.
OH! Warwolf just called you a valued member of society Subjugator! FIGhT FIGHT.
Hey now, you're putting words in my mouth. I said he was a nice guy, valued may be a stretch (underappreciated, sure... valued, I'm not sure). Oh, and I wouldn't want to fight Subbie. I might be able to move quicker, but if he got ahold of me I don't think it would be pretty...
Oh, and girls on the internet are a rarity, not an impossibility. I'd discuss the issue further, but some might find it offensive (as I most-assuredly would be mis-interpreted).

They're out there.

Are you being serious?
I'm jealous. My childhood sucked after about age eight or nine.
My adulthood is no great shakes either, but that's mostly due to my own failings rather than those of others.
/Sub
Lol. Nope. My childhood was normal. Raised by USMC, for the USMC. Just wanted to throw my two cents in. It seems like everyone I meet has had Childhood problems. They look at me and I'm all like...uh...I went to military school!! and played football. So I'm the oddball out.
hippie_mama wrote:Oh yeah? Well my parents are still married. To each other. Beat THAT.
My parents died. But they did die married, and yes to each other
but did they have the same last name before they where married? because I'm told thats unusual for other family's.

hippie_mama wrote:i have a friend who's brother and sister are married.
Alright, so they're her half-brother, and half-sister, no relation to each other, but i still think it's weird, lol. They got married first, and then their respective parents did, and then my friend was born. Still makes people scratch their heads though. Actually, it must be pretty common, because my mom has a friend whose step-dad is also her father-in-law. At least it makes family gatherings more managable LOL.
Lol. Nahhhh, thats only common around Joplin, too close to Arkansas
Ravenwing wrote:Lol. Nahhhh, thats only common around Joplin, too close to Arkansas
It's worse than you might imagine. i live half-way between Arkansas, and Branson (approximately 20 minutes from either).
Wow, you're even further south than I am (though I'm closer to Oklahoma... take that for what you will).
Oh, and since Raven mentioned Deliverance I'll take this point to mention that I have a nasty physical reaction to the sound of dueling banjos... I shoot to kill.

Orig I'm from Desoto, a sub of ole' St. Louis. But now I live in Texas, and live in constant fear of both dueling Banjo's and Leatherface. Lucky for me the Army let me keep my DE, and I bought a SR-25 sniper. Come get some rednecks.

Aww, so I guess I won't play that for you, huh?
Only if you have a deathwish...
Oh, and Raven, I know exactly where Desoto is (actually lived there for a bit while I was young... I don't like to recall that time). Calling it a suburb of St. Louis is a bit of a stretch (it's more like a suburb of Festus).
You know, since you're going to be at the Open House this year, we'll definitely have to catch up with one another. Us semi-rural Missouri-folk have to stick together you know (anyone cracks an incest joke here and they WILL face my wrath ).

Kinda like how I proved that "Mrs. TAF" was really Prettz a couple of years ago. There are no women on the net. Except maybe herblackwings29. I'm fairly sure she's female.

Ugh... why does everyone I know drink that crap? I'm a Jack person myself, but rarely drink anymore. We'll have to see how things play out though (last year I was exhausted... 15 minutes of sleep between the VIP event and the first day).

I'm with you on that, WW. One shot of that stuff 15 years ago, and my stomach still turns at the thought of it.

Sorry bout that, hit Kid Galactus with an area effect munition and you happend to be in the blast radius. And for your info Sam Adams light has won several beer contests, several of which did not have alight beer catagory.

Josh Sinsapaugh hacked my forum account a year ago and started posting as me to make me look like a complete ass. I've been fighting back under the Vigilante name of rat_bastard in a crusade for truth, justice and the Pakistani way but so far my cause has not gotten the media attention it warrants.
man I'm going to get a cranky PM from Jason "Josh Sinsapaugh" Richards.

Unless you're his evil twin or have a good disguise skill (don't worry, I'll hit myself for that crack later), that won't work on those that met him last year... or those that look for his picture around here.
