If you would like to discuss the saga without the blogger drama , you are more than welcome to chat about it here. Any blogger related posts will be deleted, unless they directly relate to the actual lawsuits.
I’ll give you a topic 
…..the ANS saga.
Talk amongst yourselves….
Served what?
A subpoena, a summons, a sandwich, a screwdriver or revenge?
What does “you got served” mean?
| According to the Urban Dictionary it means:
1. Colloquial vernacular to express the status of one who is the recipient of a subpoena, which more commonly would be expressed as “You’ve been served” or “Consider yourself served.” 2. A slang expression that is usually used when someone proves that they are better than someone else.
3. Another way of saying “You just got owned!”
Example: “You just got served, muthafucka!” |
||
Who would do the “serving”?
A waiter?
A process server?
A dancer?
Well whatever the case…….
Tips for the server:
When serving, it is most appropriate to use the “bunny dip”, as described in wikipedia.
Tips for the served:
1. Be polite and say thank you.
2. Don’t do this……
I figured you out….
Rockstar? No…..

I had one of those mothers who refused to allow me to play with the bad kids. You know, kids that lipped off to their parents or who disobeyed and walked across the street when then were told to stay put. Those were the kind of kids I didn’t get to know until, say, high school when they were sharp enough to pretend to be good kids. Later still, to mom’s chagrin, I would just date them.
When I grew up I determined that I sorta preferred the good kids–the kind that would tell the truth despite themselves. You know the kind of kids that were loyal, hardworking and who would tell a cashier when they received too much change. The kind of kids that made me proud to know them, even when I disagreed with them. The kind of kids with warm hearts who never treated others in any way less than they would like to be treated.
The good kids seem to be a dying breed, maybe because we aren’t keeping our kids away from the bad kids anymore. Or just maybe, maybe our kids are listening to our conversations and learning what we now consider as tolerable behavior. Maybe our kids are reading Topix.
The internet is filled with more bad behavior than real life, thank God. It’s hard to imagine being in a grocery line and listening to one customer berate another as I’ve seen us do on Topix or TMZ. It’s like it used to be ok there to totally erase the lines of decency only if you are on the opposite side of the Howard fence. Not so any more. Now you can simply be friends with what some consider the bad kids and then you become fair game. Guilt by association. I’ve been objecting to the association game since I’ve seen it but lately I’m starting to wonder if it’s legitimate disassociating yourself and separating the good kids from the bad.
Not that it would be relevant but, could you imagine being called a pig repeatedly in real life? I think that would be considered abuse, yet on Topix—that’s common fare. Could you imagine if one of your real life friends handed out your phone number or address to perfect strangers? How about if your buddies passed around your emails to make fun of you? What kind of person would pass out your information to an enemy who repeatedly threatened you in the past? Of course this is just conjecture; we would never do that on Topix, let alone IRL.
Ok, so now I’ve begun to tolerate the bad kids. The kind of kids that would destroy their enemies by any means possible. The only problem is, while I sit silently by and act cordial with the miscreant, others are watching my reaction and judging me by the company I keep. So, when is it not ok to have a cordial relationship with a bad kid? When is it not ok to converse openly as if I didn’t see their bad behavior? When does the vile stench of this sub-human behavior permeate you to the point that you must not only stay away but actively demonstrate your abhorrence to the despicable behavior? When it crosses a line, you got to say it—audibly, visibly. When you stroke the head of a nasty, abusive troll you may have just ruined whatever goodwill imagined to be part of you—and you may be the last to know. Don’t blame everyone else when your own poor judgment brings you down with the bad kids.
What happened on Topix???
I’m having deja vu…all over again.
Trusting you

You can go your own way
Go your own way
You an call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

When you play on a team you quickly find out the strengths and weaknesses of your fellow team mates. You expect your team members, like yourself, to become stronger so that, in the end, your team beats the opponent . Everyone is expected to play by the rules. Each member comes with assets and liabilities but the most important thing is to compensate for anything lacking in the team in order to win. The enemy is obvious when they’re wearing a jersey but, without one, sometimes its hard to figure out.
According to Mariam Webster, friends are attached to one another or a group through affection or esteem and are not hostile to each other. To explain it, think about those people with whom you most closely align yourself. Are those people loyal to you? Do they love you enough to tell you what you could do better while not decimating your self-esteem or exposing your weaknesses? Do they reach out a hand or share their heart with you? Are they trustworthy? Does your friend make you feel good just to hear their voice? Do they make you feel like you can conquer or overcome anything? If you have a true friend, be grateful. You’ve found comraderie with a person who helps you shore up your strengths and will be there for you in times of trouble—even when you got yourself in a jam.
To have a friend, you must first be a friend.
My personal definition of friendship begins with loyalty and trustworthiness—those are the friendships that are tried by fire and are sustained to the other side. If the person takes from you psychologically more than they deliver you have to question whether you are being exploited. Is this person your friend or your enemy?
In the macro, if someone exploits the weakness of another member or is disloyal to the group I would question my sanity if I gave them another try since this person may not be wearing the same color jersey. Take, for example, how there’s been some sharing of emails. A friend would never forward an email to someone else without first getting the permission of the original sender. In another instance, sharing personal information with others could harm someone else on the team. Exploitation of weaknesses of others to build yourself up is an obvious infringement of common trust.
It’s important to close ranks around those with whom we disagree when it comes to one subject—betrayal. Variations in opinion or disagreements can be exploited by the enemy but the group should determine that they will not tolerate the ultimate betrayal by any member if it is shared with the enemy. Voice your disagreements inside. Expose enemies on the outside. And don’t get confused about who your enemy is when that betrayal is displayed. No jersey required.
Can I get a witness?
Most people think it improper to spank children, so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of ‘those moments.’
One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk.
Some say it’s the vibration from the car, others say it’s the time away from any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer, IPod, etc.
Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together.
Eye to eye contact helps a lot too.
I’ve included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case you would like to use the technique.
Sincerely,
Your Friend
