Y'all act like you DESERVE MORE than what you all ready have.
You don't!!!

Y'all act like you are MORE special than others.

You aren't!!!

Y'all want to chisel everything down to YOUR TERMS.

You can't!!!

Y'all act like you care about everyone's interests.

You don't!!!

Y'all avoid the fact you are no more special than anyone else.

YOU DO!!!

WHY?

42. Queens is one of the 5 boroughs
Edited on Sat Sep-19-09 04:02 PM by mitchtv
all new yorkers. ( Sometimes I wonder about Staten Is.) Regional accents are preserved longer in the outer rings of the City like Bklyn Bronx etc.,as Manhatten is mostly newcomers and people not born in the city.

45. I came back to find some interesting responses,...
It was interesting to read those who "thought" I was aiming my post at them, and I honestly cannot figure those,...

It was interesting to read folks question whether I was southern (I am fully southern WV),...

It was interesting to read reactions.

At least you asked, "who on earth are you addressing", without making assumptions.

We really need to TEST our own pulses on how we react to emotionally provocative shit thrown out there. Otherwise, we are allowing ourselves to BE SPUN rather than spin our wheels forward on matters of equal importance to each and every one of us.

Am I making sense?

48. People "think" you were aiming your post at them because that's how English works
Edited on Mon Sep-21-09 10:48 AM by muriel_volestrangler
When you type "y'all", it means the people you are addressing. There's no "figuring" needed.

When you leave it for 2 days without any explanation, then of course they'll carry on thinking you were using English in the normal way.

No, you're not really making sense. What you said in the OP has nothing to do with spin.

53. Haha! Yes!!!
And while you're at it, toss in a couple of lines like:

I condemn
the solemnity
of your con-form-i-taaayyyyy!
Uhhrrrrggghhh!

Consigned
to flames
of your mor-al-i-taaayyyyy!

I'm not really a metal fan, but if you've ever watched Headbanger's Ball with the closed-captioning on, you see some pretty funny stuff.

20. I get it. You are right... it is all about them in their own minds.
It is all about self-preservation and greed over the well-being of others.

They fail to realize that by supporting others, they ultimately support themselves.

39. i didnt say poster right or wrong. it is all emcompassing and broad sweep
and not specifically talking about any one thing.

there is no since discussing a post like that let alone arguing it when a person doesnt even know what they are arguing.

You are not special.

You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake.

You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else.
