Six of the resort mountains out there used to be my clients. I've seen some amazing competitions out there. I'm insanely jealous of you right now.
Pack your bags,grab your hunnies and lets go then! Im sure we can make room..in suitcases,drawers,under the bed. :D
Have you see the pipe Captain? I havent even seen it ... when I lived there last,it hadnt been built.
ooh.one thing I need to tell you now..I thought he was going to be in the main competition..come to find out he was there doing some freeboarding and poll jam.But turns out he wasnt in the main comps.But he boarded great and we had a nice time.Good way to spend a Christmas with my last one in line.
then off to Colorado.Hitting the old stomping grounds,snowboarding and who knows what else.Finally,FINALLY Getting out of here.
Then Florida... Here I come!
About damn time too.
COMMENTS
Sounds like fun *sneaks into your suitcase*. Hope you have a great time doll, you deserve it :)
Have fun but this time try to not freeze to death lol *kisses*
Yea, mermaid in the snow.. Mermaid in tha' snow..
woot have fun :D
ok this puter is getting to me now..double posting,opening two damn windows with almost every click of the mouse.They need to replace their mouse dimmit.
from MBK and thats some seriously funny s%&^.
One cant help but laugh.
Ive been watching for a while now and I must say,the behaviourr I have seen surrounding this coven is absoloutely pathetic.They blow through the forums with their lynch mob style insults and prejudice,never once contributing to a thread in any way other than to provoke controversy..Fight amongst theirselves because they have no clue as to how to have anykind of healthy relationship .Then air their dirty laundry out for all to see.Blaming one another when in fact everyone of them behaves just as badly as the other.
Talk about MUNDANE.
COMMENTS
mundane is a polite thing to say....
I know.But they will most certainly understand.
Their practice is self serving.
Originally posted By Stabb..
It's funny, in a way, how the modus operandi of the sociopathic emotional manipulator works.
Often, it begins with the identification of similar interests. The predator will look through the info of the prey, select the items which touch that person deeply, and then they will begin to learn about those areas, gathering a smattering- enough to not be an expert, but at least open a conversation.
Then they will attempt to form a friendship, to connect- often with unsolicitated messages and invitations to know them, to know their secrets.
However, those 'secrets' are often false. They are designed to bring out sorrowful sympathies, to make the prey see the predator as a victim, someone who has suffered and deserves better.
And then the prey is encouraged to begin to share their own genuine feelings, worries, and secrets with the predator, forming a bonding hook.
The next move is for the predator to bring in the minions- those who have already been duped lock, stock and barrel. The minions will be required to make friends with the prey, even if they don't really want to. But because the predator is the one pulling the puppet strings, who holds the sway over them, they will jump right in feet first, perhaps without even realising that they too are being manipulated.
Often, those minions will not have any real interest in the prey. Their only goal is to see their puppet master happy in the game.
And 'game' isn't really what it should be called, as that implies a much more innocent character to what is a sickeningly nefarious agenda. The game isn't even conciously acknowledged, or discussed openly, except by the most devious and callous of predators and minions who they trust enough to let them see the truth.
Another side of this game, is for the predator and their minions to seek an isolation of their target, to pull them into their clique and erect barriers between them and those who have proven trusts. Tactics will include engaging in inapprorpiate conversations about topics only close friends would have. Sometimes difficult subjects, often highly charged with emotion. Then a questioning of where other friends are to support, and the deeper identification of 'I know what you're going through', coupled with the minions offering small comforts here and there.
Further into this behaviour, we see that anyone who threatens their web of deceits, will be targeted to undermine their influence over the prey. These could be previous prey, or those who recognise the sociopath and will seek to prevent them from further machinations. Tactics will include a rubbishing of opinions, unfair criticisms of behaviour. Slanders and outright lies, which will be disguised as gossip, and then painting them as the villain in previous interactions with the predator.
The worst part of all this, is that the predator will not only have one prey, but several prey on tender hooks simultaneously. They will each be offered a close personal relationship, better and more deeply felt than they have had before. They will be shown a greener pasture, a hope of something lovely, bright and enticing. Sex is a factor here, as is the promise of unconditional love.
But at the end of the game, once the predator has had their fill, all they will receive is a rejection, be emotionally torn and this possibly resulting in lasting damage to the ability to trust.
Just wish they would learn how to act,and quit throwing stones from the glass house.it would make things alot better around here.
Drama whores!!!!
Drama, you know its really bad when you can't have fun because of all the drama. Hugs to you hun.
and who are they, as if I don't know just want to make sure.
Dont believe I will discolse any names..but yes,they know who they are.And it would be nice to see some changes around there and in their behaviour.
LOL SO TRUE.......
what happened to QueenMorbid...I miss her around here.
I saw a profile that made me think of you,so wherever you are,I hope you are doing well.
COMMENTS
Ya know, I was just thinking about her.
Maybe shes thinking about us then.Never know.
Yeah I noticed she's gone :(
I could put one of those nifty little trees I see in everyone's journals.Stupid hotel puters..cant do anything fun with em.
As you already know Ive been a real good girl this year.And I only hope you bring lots of good treats and presents for my friends here on VR and what I want is rather large,but I really,REALLY want one.After all,it would really come in handy.
Thanks Santa.
COMMENTS
I know how to make one of those. You prefer UPS or...?? :)
I figured you might..and that youd be workin for Santa this year.Hmm,could you just air freight it to my sky space please? I dont think UPS would like delivering that..although they could use one Im sure.;)
Hmm think that I am gonna have to let Santa's helper's help you with this one. I am at a loss for designing and engineering lol.
*Smiles at Santa* please give her what she has asked for ..... she has been a really good girl this year......
Darn, whatever happened to a good reindeer stable? giggles.
Almost obsolete E. Reindeer are fast,but nowhere near as fast as that gate.:)
If I get my upgraded version, I will send you the one I have now, it has a few software glitches though..
