DS1 just told me he doesn't know anything about molecular biology.
I don't think I can go on. I certainly can't be his friend anymore. This news has me far too distraught.

:cry:

1. My knowledge of molecular biology....
would fit on the head of a pin.

Maybe I should go :hide: from you.

3. Oh, what do you know?
You know my true nature. Or at least you think you do.

This place makes me :crazy: anymore. I'm watching people I really like, and thinking :wtf:

11. I've got the song
'True Colors' going through my head. :rofl:

GiC sent me some PMs that set my head on straight about the whole thing. She totally rocks.

14. Well, I wish somebody would set me straight.
My face hurts from going :wtf: all weekend.

I'm about to get away from this place and the heat here in LA and go see a couple of movies back-to-back in sweet, air-conditioned darkness.

19. Just remember.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Hey, it's working really well for Bushco, isn't it?

:rofl:

Will have an answer for you tomorrow. Mr. has to move a few things around, but it looks good. *fingers crossed&

30. Look
I know there are rules about bringing disagreements from other threads *into* other threads, but since you are the one joking about an exchange I was part of in another thread, I just think you should maybe re-read the thread you are joking about. The only reason I said anything about how long I had been here was because I thought Midlodemocrat was using the amount of time I had been here as a reason to discount my opinion, which I thought was ridiculous. (And she clarified, in her next post, that that wasn't the point that she was making.) I think I made clear that the amount of time someone has been on this board does not matter to me, and I regret if I am coming off as defensive but I just hate the idea of being considered to be someone who would attack someone on that account because those sort of attacks (you know "Oh, and you only have 50 posts, you must be a FReeper!") and those who make those sort of assumptions have always pissed me off. I understand wanting to defend someone you consider a friend, but I'd appreciate it if you would't distort something that I said, in order to do it.

37. Here
I am adding a link to the post that I was responding to, from the now-locked thread, just in case anyone thinks I was really trying to discriminate against posters based on the length of time they had been here.

5. If you can't be my friend anymore, then neither can any of your friends
and besides, just because I don't know anything about molecular biology, it doesn't mean I can't attack what other people are doing with it.

P-shaw! They get their hands all dirty making money doing X when they should be doing Y. That's not a genetic anti-gay statement by the way.

Anyway, that Gupta bastard is predictable as hell, he doesn't even stray from the 42 known chromosomes. Fucking poseur.

Don't you fucking bully me into thinking that olive oil is healthy, I know better.

6. Well, why would anyone be friends with anyone who was friends with you?
Unless they're a spy. Midlo is good at bullying people in to things.

Although that didn't take a lot of doing. :hmm:

15. and a goddamn homewrecker to boot
(that's not a slam against the leather industry, or footwear aficionados)

Listen to you, just climbing into a DS1/brother sandwich, didn't I just post about how little I know about chromosomes, and here you are wanting to not only inbreed, but mixing the two at the same time?

Yuck!

I don't even want to think

25. Except I keep telling TeenMidlo that dorks make the
best husbands.

I mean, ya DATE the badboy, but ya marry the dork. Right? :rofl:

And, she agrees that her dad is indeed, a dork.

Luckily, Mr.WindRavenX thinks my insane dorkiness is endearing...and I think he is too :)

27. One of the idiots in my neighborhood just ditched
her wonderfully dorky husband for a bad boy who has been married twice before. :eyes:

Series, that's what she called him. I asked if he was still living with his mother. :rofl:

28. hey I am a biology geek...
so I think I need to distance myself from you "dorky" types. Although I was dubbed a "geek" by a science "nerd" so I don't know how mcuh validity there is...The foodchain goes dorks-geeks (slightly more educated dorks)-nerds (slightly more intelligent/obsessive than geeks). This factoid comes straight from the "nerdiest of all nerds" mouth (a direct quote there)...R_A.:D

31. Not to worry. Y'all can still be friends.
I handle all his molecular biology questions. I'll also field all his temporal physics, debates regarding good/evil, and which wines to serve with French cheeses type questions.

34. Yes, it's the arrangement we have.
I tell him about temporal physics, he tells me what's going on @ DU.

Me? I'm hanging in there. A bit stressed out with life, the universe and everything going on, but hanging in there.

:hi:

How're you?

35. Working too much.
Some major, major projects going on. But school starts on Tuesday, so I will be able to work from 7AM to 2:30 without anyone bugging me to drive them to the pool or take them out to eat or to play golf or to the movies.

Gets so that I have to work nights during the summer to catch up, so I'm kind of looking forward to Tuesday.

38. She's got it. But, she was often busy
:eyes: so it fell on me.

Plus, I wasn't sure how BabyMidlo's friends' parents would feel about her driving, so I just did it.

I don't mind at all. It just makes keeping your focus more difficult. The alternative, not being here and being in an office or traveling and not seeing them would be much harder for me. I'm very attached to them.

Until Tuesday. :woohoo:
