Harley riding fuckwits being their usual selves

[Murray]

I've been disappointed by the amount of commercial interest that this ANZAC Day has attracted.

People making big profit out of commemorative t-shirts seems wrong to me.

Have you done this yet

Mr Katman I suggest you do a google search IMAGES of flanders field count the white poppies you miserable bastard

From your quote a year ago

I think you'll find that white poppies grow there as well.

I imagine red was simply chosen, in preference to white, as a symbol of the blood that was shed.

I think people are getting too hung up on this issue.

Another year on and your still a sour old cunt.

Stopping to pay respect, they were revving there bikes, twisted way of showing respect!!

[Katman]

PS yes - if I had taken the bets I mentioned in my earlier post, I would have lost.

Fuck it.

I was going to put 10 bucks on it.

Murray, you should relax.

True being offended is a choice and some people are more sensitive to situations than others. If though, we didn't get offended, what would happen?

For example, bullying: If I don't like being bullied but don't do anything about it, then it keeps going on.

I chose not to be offended, and had a really good day. My day was not ruined by the actions of others.
You should do something about being bullied, but you could do something that makes you feel hopeful that there is a solution to the bullying, and not hold onto the feeling of hopelessness that so many many do choose to feel in a situation like that.

I am - long day just having my last baileys

A couple of bikes revved up about two thirds of the way through the Manurewa service this morning as they rode off. I must say I wondered why they couldn't have pushed their bikes further away from the venue before firing them up. (They were parked up inside the coned off area).

[madbikeboy]

Yep, from what I've seen on here you make a habit of it.

I'm laying money on KatMan winning this particular battle...

My 2c worth, nothing to do with bikes, or this thread topic.

Moina Michael. November 1918.


We Shall Keep The Faith.

Oh! you who sleep in Flanders Fields,
Sleep sweet - to rise anew!
We caught the torch you threw
And holding high, we keep the Faith
With All who died.
We cherish, too, the poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led;
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies,
But lends a lustre to the red
Of the flower that blooms above the dead
In Flanders Fields.
And now the Torch and Poppy Red
We wear in honor of our dead.
Fear not that ye have died for naught;
We'll teach the lesson that ye wrought
In Flanders Fields.

It's good to see you had a really good day too.

I'm not sure what you're getting at about the feeling of hopelessness though. Surely if someone's taking action, in some form, it's the start of a solution and therefore the situation isn't hopeless.

Battle? I just asked him to explain without personal attacks. If he reckons he probably couldn't (paraphrase) then so be it.

The reason a lot of people get bullied is because they do nothing about it, or are told to do something about it themselves, which leaves them feeling hopeless.
I agree that taking SOME action is the start to a solution though. Even retaliation and revenge are a step up the emotional scale from hopelessness and depression.

... Surely if someone's taking action, in some form, it's the start of a solution and therefore the situation isn't hopeless.

Taking action is not always a solution ... nor is it always the start of a solution.

Take the wrong action and it can be hopeless ... some things just need to be ignored.

Bully's need/want attention. Don't give them any ...

No bullies want power but granted getting a reaction is actually power in some circumstances....... its about control.
Ignoring might not work, redirection can, so can greying them out.
There is no 100 percent answer.
