Things that you don't understand

[fisho mcspaz]

I see a lot of Fisho on Facebook, and just from reading her posts on there, I know she is an incredibly strong woman, and wonderful mother.

And funny as ****!

You're a champion Fisho.

Bahaha cheers! Right back atcha HH3

How energy Australia can start an electricity account with my GF despite the existing account for MY house being in my name, then contacting my provider saying the account has been transferred, then receive a cancelation fee!!

why Liverpool FC received a trophy for winning last night. I thought it was just a friendly match.

English sports teams take their friendlys very seriously. More than likely a trophy to acknowledge the game.

Wouldn't 'acknowledging the game' simply mean showing up to play?

While we're at it, I've seen some soccer games where the team captains hand over a frilly thing to each other. What is it?

Its a penant type thing from the club or country as a momento of the game, usually the includes the date, the competing teams etc

Would be similar to family crest type insignia. Be the club logo, two competing clubs, venue and date etc.

Very much so.

I have just returned from a UK & Ireland Cricket Trip. We played 11 games and gave the opposition a replica of our playing tops with their club name and date we played. Take a look around the club and they have similar mementos from other games through out the years.

Every game we played they wanted to win and couple of clubs were very pissed off that we beat them. Then just bought us copious amounts of beer

Liverpool haven't won a trophy for a while

I think I was talking about depression and my childhood and how I took a drug overdose a few weeks back.

Tried it again last weekend. Did a better job of it and ended up in hospital. I don't feel up to going into the details right now. I will talk about it soon - there are things I want to say, especially to do with the fact that I'm a mother. (Don't say anything, at least not until I've discussed it myself - I already want to punch myself in the f***ing head enough for it all, for doing that when I've got children, but it's not going to help anything, is it?) Just starting to feel OK again, bodywise - it knocked my liver around a fair bit. But bodywise AND headwise, I feel really good now, to be honest. It's a long road but for the first time in at least a year, I feel like I'm going about things the right way. Instead of immediately chucking myself back through the wringer of full-time work, and dealing with subsequent anxiety by withdrawing from my family and getting pissed, I've taken a step back from it all. I'm on mental health leave indefinitely from the Ph.D; I've taken on some part-time teaching at uni, and I'm using my spare time to spend time with my boys, play games with them, talk to them and love them. I'm also using my free time to keep the house clean as well (sounds lame, but honestly, half my problems have stemmed from me sitting alone during the day in my messy house, thinking dark thoughts). Anyway, I'm not taking too much for granted right now, just hoping it all keeps going in the right direction.

good luck with it all Fisho

Fisho, best of luck to you. You're a tough cookie.

I'm hanging on like grim death, I can tell you.

Things I don't understand - men. I thought that I did. My old supervisor at uni said 'We're easy to understand - we're simple creatures at heart' and I tended to agree until recently. (He wasn't meaning simpleminded - he meant simple as in straightforward, no hidden agendas like women tend towards.) A couple of my bloke mates have me right off balance at the moment. I've never come across the like and it bothers me. I still understand them better than women, though. I never get along with women unless they're either very kind or pissheads like me (like I used to be anyrate).

Chivalry died when women started readin' the shit in all them magazines. They got too much advice about men from other women. And they don't know what the **** they're talkin' about. I see them in the grocery store, says on the cover "100 Ways to Please Your Man" by some lady. Come on, man. Ain't no 100 ways. That list is four things long. Just suck his dick, play with his balls,fix him a sandwich, and don't talk so much and he'll be happy! - Dave Chappelle
