RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Okay guys, I'm just pis**d now. I've spent hours liking, v***ing, etc. for all of you on the C,3 days no votes except a couple , and I've got almost no support from any of my so called "friends on here. I bit my tongue so friggin' hard when I got a message from Lizardo -Lisa-mikamom who regularly v**es for Dr. Toker, (Jules did u know that?) Neddiemeddie- who ever heard about him before this contest (probably one of the other sites with another name because he's way ahead of ALL of us!!!) Copperfyer (who also sent me a private message) is on this board 24/7 and spamming the crap out of the regular boards on C and here (in case you didn't notice) I've know you all for almost 2 yrs now and I did what was said on the board as did Vegas (don't give up) I'm so disappointed in you ALL for believing their crap,. I've been on their supporting everyone according to the list. Well, I still believe in some of you but f this stuff. I need this as much as anyone else. I had to adopt my grandchildren (hence the no vacation in 30 yrs) when I thought I was done raising kids. One was 15mos. old and one was 9yrs old. I studied Math with one and Sesame street with the other. No, I don't put all my business out there-didn't think I needed tol My big old bank account is less than 2K and I really needed this (for real not the friggin' made up crap). I thought I found people that were with me as I was for them but apparently I was wrong. Now, call it sour grapes, whining, etc. I don't give a shi*. I really cared for you people and you are breaking my heart. I feel like an outcast and don't know why. You want a sob story and can give you one, but I choose not to air all my dirty laundry in public. I still love many on this board and find them trustworthy, but some of your are too darn gullible..I am NOT whining, just stating the facts. Thanks for the support from "some of you". I'm going to watch the Superbowl (Stuporbowl). Man, I am just so damn disappointed. Thanks for the help(NOT)!! Not a stinking vote from hardly any of you. I love my family and you all were my online support "which I thought of as family".I'll be back later, so have fun, I held my head up high, didn't cheat, didn't spam, didn't lie and .......no votes from my friends. WOW. Ready or not, agree or not but I am still there for you even if you aren't for me. I'm not giving up, but I won't stoop to the level of some people.. My husband lost his job 12/31 and I wasn't working because I was taking care of my grandchildren( that I adopted.) I've never told all of this to anyone. I'm just so damn disappointed. Thanks for letting me vent. I'm sorry I couldn't hold it in anymore. I do love you all (most) on this board but get a clue as to what they are doing!!!!!!!!!!!
BAB, I'm sorry for and understand your frustration. I followed our strategy also, there were days when I didn't even v for myself, I gave it to folks that were behind. I still believe it was the correct thing to do. No one could've imagined how this would turn out or that C would allow the stuff that's gone on (silly me, huh?) but I wouldn't trade the friendships I've made here for $20,000. The cash goes fast. I don't have a job, car, and now I need a new phone. I would be completely isolated if it weren't for all of you. I don't think anyone is safe on the finalist list, but I do believe that both you and I have a safe place to come here. hug

I thought about this and had to respond
we're a small group and can only do so much.

But raising your grandchildren should be reward enough.
Your sob story pales in comparison to what others have related on here. I never vented about my hardships, but believe me you wouldn't want to trade.

Tomorrow is another day look around
I feel like a big idiot. I'm really sorry that last glass of wine did it. Thanks for bringing me back to what really counts. Sorry All!!!hug

Yes, it is pointing 'down' (and if I click on it, it just asks me which page # I want to go to -- doesn't allow me to change it to 'up'). Thank you for the suggestion, though. Four days, and counting = most current posts are on page 1, rather than on the "Last" page; oh and well...

Good news though: I (too) just won a $25 Virtual Card from Camel. No problem, at all, with redeeming it. woot
Congrats

Belle,
I'm sorry you are hurting.

My stategy was to help those in the bottom while the top ones seemed to be doing ok……but that just couldn't continue…everyone was dropping…we have too many finalists to keep all in the running. This is just my opinion.

I was too far behind, as I felt you were , and I moved to helping those that I felt still stood a chance of staying in the running. Not because I didn't think you were important and you are not an outcast.

I never felt I was giving up, I feel we were splitting the vote too much and it was better for some to make it than none.

I believe NM was here way before this contest.

We just can't count on these contests, especially voting contests.

Sometimes you need to vent, I don't fault you for it. I hope tomorrow is better for you.Hug2

Please forgive me everyone. Batty you played like I did, and it just didn't work out. I really do feel like I've been whining now. I am fortunate and have a great family. I have all my needs, but selfishly wanted some "wants". I hope to keep the frindships here that I cherish. I'm getting the hell off of here now before I say something else stupid. I will see you all tomorrow. Please forgive my stupid post.wave

Oh no, I'm referring to rnd 1 finals I'm on page 4 and the rest of SD people are falling behind because of certain people playing both sides of the fence. I didn't pm Jak or CW my rnd 2 wishes(1k and 2.5 because I thought the other people that didn't make finals on here deserved a chance and didn't want to get anyone confused Angie, but I thought they would still support the rnd 1 finalists. I've never been "crunchy" just sayin'. Going to watch the Superbowl. Sorry about any misunderstanding.
youre not tellin us anything we dont already know but it's not polite to point.. and neddie has his place of employment behind him.. so try not to accuse unfairly...it just creates more of the feelings you are expressing..

Thanks. Surprise, not me. Now I'm counting on someone here to tell us when it's the third quarter so we can make our final entries.

By the way, Chevy early posted it's ads, and I checked those and there were no license plates showing. I liked the one about the end of the world best. And the Twinkees at the end was perfect.

Im sorry your having it so rough. Ive been doing what I can to keep about 6 FFers from falling off the page and out of the running. I know its heartbreaking and frustrating. All I can do is say sorry and I think its a wonderful thing youve done for your grandkids. Hope things get better
