TRIGGERED PEOPLE

First off, this was years ago and at this point I'd just ignore the person and let them be offended all by themselves for no valid reason, rather than try to explain. Also I have mellowed with age and would not have gotten snarky with them now.

So I was depressed and out in a coffee shop. I was sitting there kind of blankly looking off into space. This woman sat where I was looking and I honestly did not even notice her siting there.

Well she saw me looking and took offence. She said to stop staring at her. Well I explained I was not looking at her and just staring blank into space. She of course did not believe this.

Well I then told her I thought it was very sexist of her to think I was lusting after her and that seemed to trigger the shit out of her. So off she went on some angry rant on how only MEN can be sexist some how.

Well at this point I was sue she was mentally ill and told her I knew a good physiologist and would give her his card. Well that did not go over well.

At was at this point the barista told her she had to leave and she then went on on him about how he was trying to oppress her. I'm not even joking - that's what she said. Sigh.

Looking back it's obvious she was damaged goods and I should have just looked away and let her go on to her friend how evil the man was. But at the time I figured being a bit funny with the sexist thing was going to work for some reason. I honestly can't imagine why at this point.

Just realize that there are a growing number of people who desire to be a victim and are looking for a reason to express how you are holding them down - even if you don't actually care they exist - or you are actually trying to help them. Sigh.

A good example other than coffee house woman was a woman I held a door for. She stopped and screamed "fuck you, you piece of shit, I can open the door myself". Well all my life I was taught to hold the door for people as I was going in if they where close to me. The old man I held it for a short time before did not call me down. BUT. Victim...

I think my all time favorite was when I said "It's a great day out there don't you think" to some older guy one time. Well he lost his shit. I mean I honestly thing he had a psychotic break at that exact moment. I figured he was going to drop dead he was turning so red.

Some days you just can't win, but most of the time people just ignore you being friendly - and yes some are friendly back. So it's all good.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

God I Miss You Mom

Image
I miss her some much. We where like best friends in my adult years. We would spend a lot of time together just talking or watching TV together. We often watched Golden Girls on her TV. Our bond was deep. When I had to watch her rot away from cancer, it was something I'll never be over. It took part of my soul watching it happen. Nothing will fix it. For a couple of years I took care of her in her home. I moved into the same apartment building as her, even though the rent was higher than I could do normally. I would cook for her, and help her with everything she needed help with. I gave all I had to the point of exhaustion. I managed to get some help for her, but not nearly enough. I'm disabled and it was seriously hard to do all the work that needed to happen. Then when she was in the home, I visited every day, even when I was in terrible pain. Half of the time she was in a home 5 blocks from my home, and I walked every day, even in the rain. When she needed to be taken to Regi

Weight Update Turned Into A Health Care Rant

Image
I don't normally post these in my blog, but on Instagram and Facebook. I just had to mention I've been up and down a bit for years now but staying about the same range in average. For some reason when I got hurt badly on January 1, 2024, in a week I was up 47.6 LBS. The treatment put on a LOT of water weight. The edema was never worse. But I'm back down 44 LBS from then, so it's all good. In 10 years I lost over 100 LBS, then I just seemed to have stopped and started to go up and down a bit in the same range I'm in now for a couple of years. The edema of course, gives me a big jump when it flairs, and when it subsides, I tend to have a big drop. The thing is, it is hanging on a lot longer than it used to, and may be a permanent state in the near future. Before I'd have it flair up and I'd have it go away in a week. Now it's most of the month before it's gone away. It does not seem to matter how much salt I eat either. I skipped the hot dogs and I sti
