It’s not like that at all, but your question has re-opened a door from my past that I had hoped would remain closed forever, and that door is domestic violence. Everybody knows that the definition of domestic violence is beating up your wife slightly more than what’s necessary, so obviously the trick is to know when to stop. Actually, I don’t consider it to be wife beating, when it's really nothing more than constructive criticism. Whoever said “nothing is impossible” has never tried to avoid beating my wife. There was one occasion, and I'm ashamed to admit it, but I did get a bit carried away one morning. I wasn’t paying attention, and while I was beating her, I burnt two pieces of toast. They were too burnt to eat, so I had to start all over again… with the beating. I realize that admitting I have a problem is the first step towards fixing it. I’m man enough to admit to my problem, which is not only obvious to me, but it’s obvious to others as well. Others can also see that I have a problem and they try to help me. One day, a man saw me hitting my wife, and after a few tense seconds, he sympathized and he started hitting her too. I’d even tried calling a wife beating hotline to see if they could help me, but evidently, “How do I hit her without leaving bruises?” is not the sort of question that they're trained to answer. Before anybody gets the wrong idea about me, I do not beat my wife all the time. The only one time I don't feel like beating her is when we’re playing strip poker. Sometimes, though, she’s really asking for it. One morning. I told her that if my dinner isn't on the table when I get home from work she's in for the beating of her life. Then I hid the table. In hindsight, I don’t think that I’d been all that bad. There were times that I actually stood up for my wife. I remember one time my kid kicked my wife several times and I gave him a good beating for hurting her. In hindsight, I probably should have waited for him to come out of her womb first, but hey, we all live and learn, right? It’s sad to say, but all the drama in our marriage eventually led me to the most powerful anti depressant available…. divorce. I’d always heard that every divorce is traumatic, but mine was worse than most because it almost didn't go through. I thought it would go through fairly easily. We both wanted it. She actually walked out on me, saying that she's leaving because apparently “We don't talk anymore.” Anyway, that's what my neighbor told me she said. One of the last times we talked, she had the nerve to tell me that I need to grow up. Needless to say, I was speechless. It was not because I didn't have anything to say, it's just difficult to say anything when you have 45 gummy bears in your mouth. I have to be honest. After my wife divorced me, I did fall into a never ending spiral of drunkenness, drugs and loose women. It was funny how my life improved so much after she left. From her perspective, she can't stop beating herself up about the fact that I got to keep the voodoo doll of her in the divorce settlement.
SCOTTN I understand that most people here think you are funny.
I'm guessing you've never dealt with, seen or known a woman who was beaten like in "I'm gonna beat you to death or at least into the ICU", in real life.
Then, the next day you post scripture.
What's next, jokes about molesting children? (The only thing worse than beating women). Interspersed with scripture?
I'm in no way politicaly correct, I predate political correctness, but I have had a simple policy since a very young man to "drop on sight" any man hitting a woman or child. Period.
That's not funny, unless you also like to make child molester jokes.
My take so take it or don't.
John
I'm not even going to dignify that response with a remark. Oops. I just did. Take it or don't.
I seriously doubt that you're intelligent enough to know the difference. Take it or don't.
Right, I'm really dumb, you're super intelligent.
It's the interwebs so you get to post anything you want, including your hooker jokes, your wife beating jokes, then turn around 180 degrees and post phoney spiritual musings.
Got it, I'm the dummy. You are "the smart one".
But you are the hypocrite. Be a man, pick a side and stick with it, wife beating whore chaser vs. Godly man.
Or.......don't.
I gotta go bid some piping and a couple of cell tower upgrades, so you get "The Last Word"! cause my next few days are pretty busy. Make it the best you can.
You should feel free to post wife beater jokes, whore jokes, be sure to quote some scripture in between.
I probably am NOT intelligent enough to keep up with YOUR phoney world, I'm glad.
John, over and out for a few days now. Have some real work to do and gots to go ride me motorcycle.
Carry on.
I don't plan to continue to be a part of your nescience. I was merely defending myself. I have respect for everyone, but when someone makes absolutely ridiculous accusations and disrespects me as you've done, I'm going to defend myself. Usually, when one shows disrespect towards others, its either because of their own ignorance, or their need to put somebody down in order to make them feel better about themselves. Good luck with your upcoming bids, and if you have anything else to say, please send me a pm, Or.......don't, and I will respond accordingly.
On a more serious note, does your motorcycle have training wheels?
Keep on doing what you've been doing my friend.
Best regards - Al

Hi JTMcC,
It's called "verbal farting" so take it for what it's worth... Besides, how is it that you always end up taking stuff that people joke about way too seriously in here for the most part... Maybe you should throw in a joke or two in yourself JT! C'mon man! I really am surprised that someone like you is going to get so offended by some comments that make up a joke... I wish I could understand why, but I cannot, and I'm not going to try either because it isn't even worth it...
J, don't let verbal farts upset you, because the person you are accusing of being insensitive, or a hypocrit is not that person you describe, and I most definitely will attest to that from all of the private communications I have personally had with SCOTTN over the years... I hate to be so judgmental towards you because I do respect you for who you are but, this time you're barking up the wrong tree with SCOTTN...
I mean SCOTTN would push you aside and risk himself getting hit with an oncoming train if it would ever come to that so please don't misjudge him and call him something he surely isn't... I think that you're misunderstanding the intent of what may seem to you as him being hypocritical based on the variety of the content in his posts... I say this because if you notice that he doesn't ever include any joking when he's being serious in any of his posts... And when he does joke, within the first paragraph anyone can easily read that he's joking around... So please don't mistake one serious quote with one of his jokes which IMHO, are a welcome reprieve from all of the seriousness that most of us have to cope with on a daily basis... I hope that you have a good day JTMcC.
Respectfully,
Henry
