OMG IM SO SORRY!

[Doktor Howl]

Am I missing something?  Is Khara a delicate flower? 

Not sure, to be honest. 

Fact remains the same, this thread is a toolbox, and I am a tool for bothering with it.

Bofus.

TROOF.

[Dysfunctional Cunt]

I wonder, if Khara were to continue digging and eventually discover she is mistaken, would she have it in her to post her results and admit the mistake?

Social experiment, ITT!

I strongly suggest that you take this opportunity to back the fuck off of Khara.

Doesn't matter.  She flounced and boogered up her account.

Not true.

I am not flouncing.  Never said I was, never said I was the last time.

OK federal.  Then she looked it up wrong.  Nigel, post your source so we can all read for ourselves.  I signed up through FAFSA.  It specifically asked on the application if I've been convicted of a felony drug conviction.  To which I replied No, as my conviction is not drug related.  I am receiving Financial Aid.

I got that from here: http://felonyguide.com/Can-felons-get-financial-aid.php

Which states:

FAFSA is another road to take but can only be taken by the few. Those with past convictions of possessing or selling illegal substances or those with convictions still on their records are not eligible to apply for grants and scholarships through FAFSA. Convictions must be removed before applying. Pell Grants and Stafford Loans are also available through FAFSA. Some colleges even use FAFSA to determine state, local, and school-related scholarships and grants

However, further research failed to corroborate that info, so I am willing to concede that I am mistaken.

When I was applying for Financial Aid, my initial assumption was that my felony would likely bar me from receiving it.  However, I met with the Financial Aid Advisor at UW-Waukesha, Judy Becker, and she told me that only applies to drug convictions.  So I signed up, jumped through some hoops, and eventually received the check.

It was an understandable mistake.  And I regret I was such an ass to you and Khara about it.  I got defensive, and I shouldn't have.

I'm sorry.

ETA:  Do you by chance have a rare and curious book I can borrow?

I don't have any rare or curious books, but I do have this packet of bath salts...

I am working under the assumption that it is a good thing, thereby altering reality once again to make me the hero in a cheap sci-fi novel.

[Freeky]

Have yourself a little perspective here, Dok.

Are you seriously telling Howl to get a little perspective here, after everything you've said ITT?

In the context I used it, yes.

It strikes me that the main issue from the OP and through all the ensuing posts is a distinct lack of perspective on your part (although I will not deny that others have probably got the same issue).

Let he who is without sin...

...eat the first dick.

mirroring is a good way of building rapport, but when it's an adversarial context with people that are shit flinging artistes, then caution is advised.

you, like me, seem to be the type that likes to keep debate lighthearted, even when the passion runs high.  a delicate touch and generous diplomacy is required to achieve this.  deference to strong opinions can sometimes be difficult when they are opposite your own, and learning when to bow out is not trivial.

i generally feel like something of an outsider here, and fear that i might be seen as milquetoast by some, but that's ok because i get something out of this place.

Listen to him, Trix.  We're all shit flinging ARTEEEEEEEEEEEEESTS!

Someone should do something.

Dok,
Holding his cigarette backwards.  EET EES ALL SO BORRRRING!

Oh fuck, Dok, you're an ARTISTE?  I guess I'ma have to put you down tonight.  It's the only humane thing to do.

Wow there sure are a lot of posts ITT.
After having read all of it I think that, while seemingly heavily propelled mostly by his glands, Trix is not an irredeemable shitneck. Nor is he a hopeless douche. Nor do I find him to be a skank ho.

A bit of an idiot sometimes though.  But a tenacious idiot.

Alty,
knows from skank ho, yo.
