LMAO.

I hate being bi-polar.
It’s AWSOME!

Yeh, before dusting the guy I found out he had tried to kill himself 3 times then I happened to look in his medicine cabinet one day for an aspirin and saw a gigantic container of Lithium. It was full so I figured he had stopped taking it. At some point you have to ask yourself how upset would you be if you never saw this person again.

What did you dust him with? DDT, flea powder, baby powder?

[AppyPappy]

One of my good friends is bi-polar. She is one of the few people that I dated that was physically abusive to me. She’s practically a zombie now but easier to be around.

Occasionally she will say something to me that people would find inappropriate but I just blow it off. The filter is gone.
Of course, she has no idea why we stopped dating.

[AppyPappy]

Never let the phrase “God allows” leaves your lips. It implies God is passive-aggressive.
Satan is the ruler of this world.

I’ll be the judge of that...Pictures or I’m calling BS! ;P

“I know where I stand now, so I no longer even try.”

Laz! Say it ain’t so! I have no heroes left...(sniff).

Snicker! :-)

A friend of mine told me years ago. go to his house after you know him, excuse yourself and go to bathroom and look through medicine cabinet and on your way back, look in bedroom for scripts.

I haven’t gotten it since Sputnik.

Or, conversely, you could just be honest and ask. Are you afraid he wouldn't be honest with you? That's ironic behavior if so.

She appeared very normal:
grounded, and not a loon
the only yellow flag was when gouged
my eye out with a spoon.

Maybe it’s a good thing not to pass the genes.

[riri]

I just gave my son the link to Chateau Heartiste and a pack of smokes.

OK, obviously no smokes but the link, for sure.

If I were on one of those picture sharing sites or a social site, I would just upload a pic.

My favorite pic is where I’m standing on Ellis Island, I strike a pose like you would see in Macy’s men.

Here’s the best part: Not only do I look great but, the Twin Towers loom perfectly behind me.

Probably three or four Freepers have seen that picture.

Even Ronald Reagan said, "Trust, but verify."

Around home, we say, "You trust your mother, but you cut the cards."
