		<description>Oh just typing, data entry, you know. Nothing exotic. Unless I&#039;m wrong about what you&#039;re spending your time on. And no, I don&#039;t think you&#039;re learning to be a farmer :)

&lt;strong&gt;Oh, the typing game:)  No, I actually only played that 4 times &amp; kicked its&#039; ass - lol.  I did transcription for a long time, worked in law offices, so I can type like a wizard.  But I don&#039;t like typing other people&#039;s words.  What a surprise!  Got sick of it.  Plus, almost everyone does their own typing now, it&#039;s not really a great skill anymore.  Figures, the one thing I can do is no longer considered worth much at all:)&lt;/strong&gt;

		<description>I *know* what you are doing instead, and let me just say you are in danger of developing a job skill.

&lt;strong&gt;Please, oh please, let me know what that would be?  The job skill, I mean:)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>If only those retards over at Greenpeace would get their crap together and really try and do something about the planet--like &quot;over-population.&quot; They could start with something simple that people like you and I could get behind. Their slogan could be: &quot;Save the planet, sterilize an idiot!&quot;

I bet people would be sending them candidates left and right.

Just...wow! I look forward to more adventures with whack-job and potty-mouth!

&lt;strong&gt;I&#039;m all for sterilization . . . unfortunately they&#039;d probably put a real idiot in charge of the program.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Oh my lord, I am sooooo bad about planning shit in advance and then changing my mind. Or I do this whole wishy washy &quot;should I go, or should I stay&quot; dance in my head about it, changing my mind repeatedly for a day or two, and even down to the minute I should be walking out the door, headed to whatever my stupid ass planned to do. And yet, I am surprisingly spontaneous. I can be just sitting here and suddenly say &quot;I want to go to the mall&quot; and then I have to drag my husband around. He always says &quot;You can&#039;t be serious!&quot; when he knows I never joke about that kind of stuff. After 20 years, he should know me better by now. Maybe that just attests to my mental state - I&#039;m never the same woman twice. 

But really what it boils down to is this - I think I&#039;d ditch them before you invest any more time with them. Obviously, it&#039;s a waste. I&#039;m all for soul sucking friends and family if you&#039;ve known them a long time, but who has the energy to enter another dysfunctional friendship? I sometimes think I&#039;m a sociopath, but if I were would I know it? 

The thing is, eventually she&#039;s going to ask you for something. I don&#039;t know what, maybe keeping and cleaning up after her 3 dogs next time she has a tragic reaction to beauty products (no surprise, I&#039;m just sayin&#039;) or whatever, but she will. And you know you&#039;ll find yourself agreeing to something awful, and then punching yourself in the neck for it, and trying to figure a way out. Better safe than suicidal.

&lt;strong&gt;Oh, like I&#039;m cleaning up dogshit for ANYBODY!  lol  You know me better than that!  How can you possibly think of yourself as a sociopath when you&#039;ve stood by that crazy family and helped their kids time and time again?  I think you WISH you were a sociopath!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Um... you friended them on Facebook? So now she cyber-stalks you as well as old fashion stalks you? Good grief. I had a female stalker once (a co-worker). I changed the locks on my apartment and refused to have any contact with her. She finally moved to Florida to be with her husband who serves weekends in Iraq, her 3 imaginary children, and her brother who got AIDS from touching a dead body.

&lt;strong&gt;I read that &quot;weekends in Iraq&quot; line like 7 lines and then finally read the rest - LOL.  I think this might be my stalker&#039;s cousin.  Did the dead body have bubonic plague?  Cause I&#039;ve heard that can cause some fluid leakage.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>You obviously know that this is an attention thing for her...you need to pass her off on someone else...give her another distraction.

You also have to see things like this coming...you let down your guard!!!!!

&lt;strong&gt;I would be willing to listen to the mind of any criminal for at least 30 minutes!  She&#039;s just a make-up handicapped drama queen with health problems and a spoiled child, a husband with brain damage and a Jaguar:)&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Oh no, how awkward! I hate stuff like that, how do you break up with people? I myself am a fan of passive aggressive phone call avoidance :( I&#039;m not saying it&#039;s good or right, I&#039;m just saying that&#039;s what I do. It&#039;s also why I decline most invitations to meet new people and friends - the chances of finding a weirdo are far greater than finding someone you want to spend time with ;)

&lt;strong&gt;Call avoidance works with MOST people!  Believed me, we&#039;ve tried!  They&#039;re stalking us on the house phone, two cell phones and two Facebook accounts.  It&#039;s a mad, mad world:)  Just found out her aunt is ill (she love to put grieving messages on Facebook about how one more relative is deathly ill and about to keel over).  Perhaps a funeral will happen on Monday and the entire issue will be null and void?!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Okay, you&#039;re going. Plan two (although, due to proximity, plan one is still a viable option). Do you mind public spectacles? I&#039;m talking being one? Do you have a shirt with a clown or kitty cat or favorite serial killer on it? Can you speak Farsi while wearing snowshoes? 

No! Damn.

Okay, how about just talking loudly and making up things about the wax figures? Things like,

&quot;You know, Thomas Jefferson had webbed toes and only ate alfalfa.&quot;

&quot;Few people know this but, when Donald Trump was a kid, he had an invisible friend named Urup. And now that friends what he wears on his head!&quot;

Barring that, have fun and don&#039;t let the bastards get to ya!

&lt;strong&gt;You remind me so much of this little yellow book I used to live by, the title was something like &quot;Ways to screw with people.&quot;  I have to find that book when I get home:)  You didn&#039;t author such a thing, now did you?&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>ok, wow.  I laughed so hard reading this because I am the same exact way about being instructed what to do.  OMG, NOOOOOOOOo!  These people are ALL WRONG in every single way.  I HATE my day planner and rarely ever look in it which results in me missing dentist, doctor, and orthodontist appts for me and the kids.  I hate being nailed down to a date and time.  I hate to plan (ANYTHING).  In fact, my good friend a co-worker is getting married in 10/2010 and when she talks about her guest list, I want to stick a sharp pencil into my eye ball.  I also feel the urge to slap her fucking silly.  There are planners, and there are OVERplanners!  The over planners are like nails on a chalk board to me.  So, yes, this was entertaining- I think it would be really hard to ignore them if they read your facebook.  I&#039;d take them off your friends list and ignore them.  They shouldn&#039;t be able to see what you are up to at any given moment!  No way!  Goodluck getting rid of them ;)

&lt;strong&gt;Thank God there are people like you in the universe, to balance out the evil.  There is NOTHING worse than listening to wedding plans.  The idea of spending thousands of hours to plan a single day, I can&#039;t bear it.  Being forced to listen to SOMEONE ELSE do such a thing, when they think you CARE about their choice of seating plans and flower arrangements is definitely pencil stab appropriate.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>
