Jen500 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I think someone is totally lacking any sense of humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TranquilMind Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 :lol: You are bad, bad, bad! And, hairyfrickingonadsofagoldendonkey, my 10yo did the same to me. No offense to donkeys. How DARE your son offend golden donkeys everywhere. They are donkeys too and were born that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommaduck Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 If I had no sense of humor, I would long ago have committed suicide. ~Mahatma Gandhi Or if you need something more Biblical, "God has made laughter for me; everyone who hears will laugh with me." I am really surprised that the humour wasn't noted in your previous post *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Mungo Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 FWIW, I feel much better after I got totally smashed on wine and vodka-soaked gummy bears and played RockBand with two other WTM ladies at my house last night. Most WTMers are so awesome. SO, I recommend that over stoning teenagers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I reserve the right to define my own interpretation of the teen-stoning mandate in the Bible, after my TWO daughters turn thirteen in the SAME YEAR. (Though by then, I may have joined an Eastern religion that provides year-long spiritual sabbaticals in the Asian mountains. No minors allowed.)

I've often thought of starting a middle-aged Moms band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TranquilMind Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Chocolate? Coffee? You should come over. :D Can't do chocolate either. But coffee...yes, I already drink enough to keep Mick Jagger in the 70's sober. I need something else. I've often joked about adding weed to the smoothies. But it's kind of hard for we 50 year olds to find it today. Back in the day, I understand my next door neighbor always had a stash. Oh, I'm there. I NEED a "Moms night." BAD. A non-judgmental Moms night, where I won't go away feeling worse that everyone else has perfect Christian kids that do everything right, or are perfect themselves. I only managed to get a few things right, mainly because I married a saintly guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodka soaked gummy bear, wine, and rockband with other homeschooling moms? Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KidsHappen Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 We have all these word taboos. The R-word, the N-word, gay, Nazi, Jew (in certain contexts), etc. I just want to touch on this particular aspect of this discussion in this post. These words are examples of derogatory terms used about a groups of people. So why do my kids constantly hear "good" adults saying "oh my god" and "jeez" at school and elsewhere? Why is it considered ok to say/write "Jesus F**'ng Christ"? Who would dare to type the "F" word in association with the word "Mohammad"? These words are not. These are all examples of violating a Christian commandment. As an aside, I have never heard of "jeez" having any connection with Jesus what-so-ever but even if I did, it would not make any difference at all. Not using the Lord's name in vain is a commandment of your religion. As a non-Christian, I am not bound by the covenents of your religion. They do not apply to me. While I do not use derogetory terms and I certainly don't go out of my way to offend people, I also do not make it a habit of trying to NOT offend everyone because it simply is not possible. There is no way to avoid offending everyone. Some Christians say things that offend me. I know that it is not their intention to offend me so I deal with it and move on. I do not expect them to conform their behavior to my desires. I would much appreciate if they afforded me the same curtesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
