I'm not sure how some of these comment threads get started ... I'm fine with people making comments about me (as long as it's not over the top, as I said before). There was a comment thread a while back that got into some pretty harsh name-calling, and I eventually had to shut down the whole thing.<br /><br />This stupid little blog is just something I do to amuse myself, and if other people want to read it, then coolio. I know that there are plenty of people who are not fond of me, and that's fine. But it's not worth anyone's time to insult each other over silly stuff.<br /><br />That said, if anyone wants to have an off-blog discussion about my actions or words, please email me at thedeadacorn@gmail.com. I promise to be honest and sincere, and that I will not discuss your email with anyone and I certainly will not make mention of it on this blog.<br /><br />[I deleted the previous comment and reposted because I typed my email wrong.

I recognize it must be difficult for these hurlers-of-insults (particularly the misinformed)to adjust to no longer being able to make these remarks without retribution, but such is the case. 1DWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4759432440437112051.post-61173045996755136762012-12-04T11:52:54.839-08:002012-12-04T11:52:54.839-08:00headored ...

I don't feel that the comments here rise to that level, especially as the comment that spurred the responses was anonymous as well (and solely intended to insult me, but as I said, I leave those unless they're really over the top). But they seem well-reasoned, not intentionally abusive, and reality-based (there have been others that have just been mean-spirited, and I do delete those).<br /><br />As for this blog being or not being fun/funny, no one is being compelled to read it.

Sounds like she enjoys torturing herself AND others, which, at this point, is absolutely ridiculous and without merit. Time to move on and make someone else's life miserable. Better yet, keep your misery and drama to yourself, it's a cruel thing to do that to another human being and will win you no favors. 1DWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4759432440437112051.post-71052433799571317962012-11-06T16:29:09.487-08:002012-11-06T16:29:09.487-08:00I'm curious as to why the DA should be the one...I'm curious as to why the DA should be the one to avoid this place.

Your friend is happy as a clam when The DA is there alone and chooses to interact with him with regularity. When his girlfriend shows up she turns into a complete freakshow, throwing tantrums like a five-year-old (and that's being generous). She frequently makes scenes in that establishment - so often that the patrons and staff, upon seeing DA's girlfriend walk in, stop to watch her reaction because it will inevitably be pathetically entertaining. What she fails to realize is that she is more or less inconsequential - they are simply living their lives, without malice. They have never done anything with the intention of hurting her, in fact, they've never done ANYTHING with any consideration of her existence because SHE IS NOT A FACTOR IN THEIR DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. Nor should she be! Based on what I've seen and heard, I believe she is mentally unstable and needs therapy, medication, or both - she's been on the verge of Fatal-Attraction-Rabbit-Boiling-In-A-Pot more than once. At the very least she needs to learn how to LET IT GO and live her own life without trying to make him miserable. That's what a sane, decent human being would choose to do rather than choose to thrive on the junior high school drama she thrives on creating. If you truly care for her, and truly believe you're her friend, you will spend your time and energy on getting her some professional help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4759432440437112051.post-64339390096996215912012-11-05T09:41:12.624-08:002012-11-05T09:41:12.624-08:00KT,

It's his girlfriend she doesn't want to show up and she has no right to make that request. She throws her little temper tantrums when they show up, regardless of the day. She thinks if they don't come, then it's for her, or if they do, then it's to hurt her. Nothing is about her. It's been his bar, and his Sunday hangout, for ten years. He's not the bad guy and there's no reason she shouldn't be able to act like an adult and be in the same bar with him and his girlfriend. This has been going on for a year and a half and it needs to stop. If you're really her "friend" you'll tell her she's ridiculous and she needs go grow up.

She loved going to that bar because she felt a part of a community but she’s pretty much stopped going there because of you. You can't even stay away long enough to allow her to watch one football game a week and enjoy the camaraderie of the other fans?
