Blarg!
What a wonderful dog!
And I'm sooo proud of your little hellion, Cheryl.
Good job, Roger.
Now, I'm really truly going to go to sleep.

Sharp, pointy teeth and a mean streak a mile wide. I like her already. At least she ain't bottling it up no more; those emotions of hers are carving some new, deep channels on the way out though...

My little warrior princess is turning out better than I dreamed.
It's almost scary.

A lifetime of abuse and being put down will make a far, far worse beast than my demented mind can fathom.
*snifs*
Beautiful story. I winced at the tobasco part too, but heh...the fucker deserved it. So I am satisfied.
Way to go, Bowzer!
We should canonize that dawg.

Saint Bowzer. I like it.

What you're saying that you weren't? I'm starting to wonder what I've got in store behind all my prefrontal shelves.
It also gives me a profound hope for Kira, and makes me wonder how similar we might end up being... :twisted:

Naw. I actually had a great childhood. Good parents, the whole works. Maybe that's my problem. They taught me to think, and to hate injustice.
Quote from: The Good Reverend RogerThey taught me to think, and to hate injustice.
And how to charge capacitors, apparently. :)

Moral support can work wonders. The main thing is not to let the person in question start looking to you for all the answers...better to teach them HOW to think, not WHAT to think.
The Good Reverend isn't ANYONE'S messiah. Not even Cheryl's. I just gave her a chance...that's usually all you need to do.

Naw. I learned that in the Army.
My folks are both scientists. Biochemists and programmers don't DO capacitors.

I was born smart and encouraged to pursue my talents but I had to teach myself to think. It is a really sobering experience to wake up one day and feel that terrible black knot in the pit of your stomach. Knowing that as much as you love and respect your parents, you eclipse the both of them and they're not the reason why.
I envy you Roger

If only your modesty wasn't holding you back...:D
Heh. Kids are SUPPOSED to eclipse their parents. It's what every parent (at least any worth the name) DREAMS of.
Children are always smarter than their parents. Anyone who doubts this is fooling him/herself.

I know I'm supposed to better them. But my mother's brain hates her body. She's always getting psychosomatically trigggered illnesses, and my father is a class a Asshole and moron. My parents were heat-bound paperbacks and hardcovers, More than I was raised I feel I was self-raised, that's what hurts.

Ditto with students and their teachers. 'Tis the way of things. Growth and Entropy, kiddies, Growth and Entropy.

Trollax, at the risk of sounding insensitive, may I suggest that you get over it and start living your life? Even if it is one that your parents can't understand.
I hope that if yuou ever have kids that you raise them well. Not because it is something that "you never had" but because your kids deserve it.

I'm not saying I'm not living my life, I'm not saying that I'm paralysed by it. Just that it's a damn shame.
Yep. It is a shame. But now walk on ahead. If you can't walk on ahead, then go flailing at full speed.
Quote from: St. Hugh, KSCYep. It is a shame. But now walk on ahead. If you can't walk on ahead, then go flailing at full speed.
If you can't move ahead, yank the stems out of the tires of SUVs.
Hey, it's always worked for me.
Quote from: St. Hugh, KSCYep. It is a shame. But now walk on ahead. If you can't walk on ahead, then go flailing at full speed.
Why do you think I changed my name? :)

You can work on the flailing. You'd be surprised.
One night while waxing pissed after being outnumbered and mugged, I grabbed my shinai (kendo practice thingy) and went out to wait for the cops to show up. Whilest waiting I was so pissed I ran up the street in a blind rage screaming something I can not to this day remember. It just so happens some poor car-thief was about to pull a job on my block, I didn't see him until almost too late. If it wasn't for the fact that the fucko dropped his shit and ran so fast, he would have been picking bamboo slats out of his skull for weeks. That dude's eyes were fucking wide as dishes. Damn.
The night progressed. The cops came. No questions asked about the shinai, or the new tools I had recently acquired, BTW. I went home to sleep. Now I practice the full running flail all the time.
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!! THAT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!.... that's soooooo great...
