'annie thing goes' - AKA anything goes
I don't author many threads because my time doesn't allow me to properly maintain/manage the thread.

And for that reason, I often find myself not sharing little thoughts, irritations, ideas, solutions, major bitches, etc.

So I'm making this thread to dump it all ~~here~~ and those interested can sort through my mumbling-jumbling thought patterns.

Much luck to ya! chucklethumbs

For whomever to find. For whatever reason. In whatever time period they are meant to find it.

'Annie-thing goes' thumbs

So what was my prompt today?

I get so fucking irritated beyond belief about the contradictions that I live within. The confines of society that has the general population mesmerized beyond belief. It can (at times) become extremely frustrating for those who see past the bullshit of the propaganda.

For example:

I struggle daily with what I should/should not continue to do with my sheeple-people. I'm referencing close relatives and friends in this statement and their inability to understand anything that doesn't reside within the 3 feet of their personal/private space.

It drives me fucking insane.....

They are smart people.....with good jobs.... nice families....high morals..... responsible & active community members, etc.

Yet.....

If it's not on MSM....or if it doesn't involve a smart-phone or other high tech device..... then it isn't real to them.

How the hell can this continue to perpetuate with so much of what I'm talking about being an 'in-your-face' factoid?

How is that even possible?

My sheeple-people drive me insane. I try to inform them on what I know.....what I suspect is about to happen based on actual news that doesn't involve <insert celebrity> and I'm disregarded as quickly as yesterdays news.

Fuck.....

I love them..... I really do. Yet the contradictions of knowing that makes me think I'm going crazy on most days.

crazy thought #1: 'It'll be their own fault when they realize this shit is real and they're not prepared for what's coming'

contradiction #1: 'I'll share and together we will make it work - because that's what families do'


crazy thought #2: 'You'll be sorry when you don't have a fucking clue to what's going on because you can't access FB'

contradiction #2: 'Of course I'll explain it to you AGAIN.....for the HUNDRETH time. Cuz now you finally realize that your ass is on the line for your stupidity'


crazy thought #3: 'Typical moranical-sheep mentality'

contradiction #3: 'Lost little lambs'


-----

Today was especially bad with my sheeple-people and I was at the point to where I was talking to myself....

sidenote: I often have 2-sided arguments/conversations with me being the only participant.

Yeah.... I know. But I've done it since I was little and I'm quite sane.

.....really. hearts

So back to private convo between me & me......

(paraphrased) 'What the hell is WRONG with them?? Why can't they 'get it'? How can someone be so frigging blind & ignorant of the facts that are directly in front of their face? Why do I continue to waste my time trying to educate these people when they clearly don't care'

At that point, the song 'No Nathanial, No' popped into my brain and it's been there playing softly during this entire writing/typing of this thread.

That was my prompt and the reason I've taken the time to post this...... hf

It's from the original soundtrack of 'War of the Worlds' by Jeff Wayne. The specific track is called 'The Spirit of Man'.

I've loved this soundtrack since I first heard it at about age 8. I've referenced this music on many other threads as well. And for many reasons.

Not sure if this song really means anything to the general public or not..... but I'm sharing it regardless.

Cuz I think I was supposed to.... hf

'Annie-thing' goes here...... thumbs

By this did you mean your frustration or the practice of your solo-arguments?

Just kidding... Yes I hear you.

Re: 'annie thing goes' - AKA anything goes
here's the original soundtrack of that LP - sorta hard to find altho I don't know why. There are edited/updated versions catalogued as 'new generation'.

.....those are NOT the same as the original Jeff Wayne 70's release.

here's the link for the original full recording:

Hi Annie

I understand how you feel.

For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.


Happy (Blessed) are the poor in spirit...


My father is a simple minded man, one of the happiest person Ive met. He doesnt care about anything outside his 3 feet sphere of well being.

I think (now)..... that simplicity is HIGHLY under-rated.

Your father is smarter than most....whether he knows it, or not. thumbs

Re: 'annie thing goes' - AKA anything goes
'annie-thing goes'

the topic of dog v/s cat people - is there a basis for being compatible?

I think there is...... and even tho I used to be a cat person - as I've aged, and have become more 'scheduled' in my behaviors - dogs fit my preference a bit more than the kitty-cats do.

to the cat lovers: I LOVE CATS - and still foster them on occasion. hearts

they're just not my preferred companions at this point in my life.

why is that?

when I was younger..... I was fly-by-night.... hated schedules.... rules (chuckle)....anything having to do with authority.

Cats are like that.

(owner) 'come here kitty-cat'

(kitty cat's response) 'yeah...right - I'll come to you when I'm good -n- ready'

chuckle

dogs are WAY different.

(owner) 'come here puppy-dog'

(puppy dog's response) 'okay!! I'm coming!' <tail wagging that he/she has been acknowledged>

I worked in a vet's office for 5+ years when I was younger - so not all of my pet experience is as an owner.

Cuz I was on the other side of the patient-treatment table.... and I can share with you many stories of the greatest human/animal compassions.

I could also shock you with the perversions and evil acts that 'civilized human-beings' bestow on so many genres of helpless animals.

....an insider's perspective can be a double-edged sword of information.

But this post is the truth about cat & dogs OWNERS - from Annie's perspective - so I will continue on that thought line.

Dog owners are scheduled - they like to know in advance what they're doing.....what time they're supposed to do it. And why they are engaging in this behavior.

Cat owners HATE schedules and they tend to be more fly-by-night with what they do, when they do it..... and the motivation behind WHY they do it.

This is my own observation regarding my personal & veterinary background and DOES NOT apply to every cat/dog owner.

comments? feedback?

cuz.......

<snipped>

According to legend, the Lotus Eaters live on an island off the coast of North Africa. While several intrepid historians have tried to locate the site of the island, they have yet to find a location which matches the description in The Odyssey.

The Lotophagi feed on a soporific plant which causes them to forget their homelands and live apathetic, uncaring lives. Their diet causes them to be sleepy and languid, as well as disinterested in the world around them.
