    Ahem ...

    Excuse me???

    Let's go *SMURFIN'* now ...

    well ... I guess you have been through a *lot* lately and a slip in your typing skills can be forgiven ...




    Truth be told the Beach Boys were my favorite band when I was a kid. I used to save my allowance (25 cents a week) to buy 45 rpms (remember those?) and even albums. Help Me Rhonda was the first one I got.

    Hey Zebra ... me and Bob are both cool with death defying stunts, but personally I ditched the sunglasses because I was sick of Anthony Hopkins asking me to do really difficult stuff. I'm basically lazy.

    Calz, I remember vinyl forty-fives! I'm obviously older than my avatar pic suggests. I still have a few, including Bohemian Rhapsody. And the Beach Boys rock, by the way.

    I know I posted this song already ...



    But this is what is currently killing me. How do I escape that? The song, the singer and the video are so eloquent and perfect. The pain is surely the pain of misunderstanding. I'm becoming more Loki by the second. Disenfranchised and wise. I'm always open to new experience, but it seems thin on the ground.

    Borden, if that relationship with your ex isn't healthy for you, then maybe it would be best to just blow her memory a kiss goodbye, and turn and walk away.

    I'm sorry that you are hurting so very bad.

    I wish I had some wise advise to give you, but I really can't think of anything right now. Just know that the little girl with a dirty face and a dolly is giving the little boy with a sweet grin and a striped jumper a hug.

    I think that the platinum blonde in the video is currently appearing as Lucrezia Borgia in the excellent Showtime production of "The Borgias".

    A mesmerizing production, topped only by "The Game of Thrones", imo.

    Yeah, but it doesn't work that way, especially if there is still unresolved karma. Time will help, but there is a way to speed it up a bit, and that is to use a little trick Dolores Cannon mentioned, which is to visualize the contract the two of you made prior to appearing here, then visulaize holding it up and tearing it in two, releasing each other of any further obligation, then forgive her and yourself for any pain and suffering caused by the relationship, and then visualizing each of you walking off on your own way, free of that entanglement. Repeat that process whenever the issue of regret, etc. arises in your mind regarding the past relationship, and draw your attention back to your present reality.

    Wow that just gave me a buzz because when I started reading about the unresolved karma *exactly* what you followed with from Cannon came to my mind and I was going to suggest it (prior to getting to those words).

    From what I recall, she suggests doing that with all the people in your life.

    Of particular usefulness when a loved one has passed with unresolved issues.

    I feel for you Borden .. I have tried to drink and forget, I have cried myself to sleep, I have raged at the universe why why why?

    You keep wailing as much as you need. But where you are at - is the place you are meant to be .. until you are ready to move the next level. That Delores C visualisation, I like that too.

    Ummm, no. Those 'women' are way too scary with all of those massive muscles. Even if I could look like that after huge doses of steroids, there's no way I would want too.

    Superhero image and hold the brawn eh???

    Okay.

    Why work up a sweat when a twitch of the nose will do???

    Oh, I'm not wearing that stuff all day long, everyday! I thought superheroes only wore their costumes when fighting the bad guys?
    that just triggered awesome images in my head.

    *whooping sirens, clanging alarms and warning bells going off everywhere*

    "INVASION!! INVASION!! ETA 3 MINUTES!!"

    "Quick! To the changerooms!"

    "Crap! I can't find my g-string!"

    "Bl*oody hell, who thought that LYCRA was easy to get into on short notice? It'd be easier getting wrapped in cling wrap!"

    "That's the Mummy's gig- he has an autowrapper, he's done in 60 seconds but spends 5 minutes getting back his balance"

    "Isn't that typical with most male superheroes though, done in 60 seconds? I hear it's the testosterone-"

    "Help! I'm strangling here!"

    "That's because you're trying to put on MY suit, you dick-"

    "I thought all that working out had improved my physique-"

    "No, the shrink function on the washing machine has improved your physique"

    "****, where are my shoes? has anyone seen my shoes?"

    "how am I supposed to put on makeup with all this jostling?"

    "quit bitching Loki, it's hard for us all you know-"

    "do you know how hard it is to GET this eyeliner right?"

    "Can you please watch where you're poking that horn?"

    "sorry, fighting bad guys just really does is for me-"

    "well does it have to do it for me at the same time? I don't think so-"

    "oh, the Joker smile, nice look Thor-"

    "what? OH ffs!"

    "sorry, that was my fault, Mr Invisible kept bumping me-"

    "three times?"

    "he has good timing"

    'oh like that is it?"

    "want to look like Bozo the Clown?"

    and the world quietly disappears in a puff of smoke and the Pub whirls off into another universe...

    heh heh- that's why I'm going for something that I can kick arse *and* live in. Black Widows suit might *look* awesome but it takes almost half an hour to get into properly. Give me a zip up dancers corset, leggings and a skirt and a great pair of boots any day... :D

    heh heh- that's why I'm going for something that I can kick arse *and* live in. Black Widows suit might *look* awesome but it takes almost half an hour to get into properly. Give me a zip up dancers corset, leggings and a skirt and a great pair of boots any day... :D


    Nicely played ... that was fun

    Well ... why not try the *shapely shifter* so you never have to worry about *changing*???

    ... of course, you *do* remember I am a bit partial to blue ...

    Listened intently for the Sound of One Hand Clapping ... only to hear the sound of the other hand Whacking me Upside the Head!

    Don't forget to take the time each day to smile.

    Songsy, I take it that you're Tony and I'm Thor? By the way though ... do you understand that Thor could have killed Tony with very little effort? That truly is play.
    Yes, and yes, although powering up the suit did help Tony a lot. See, there's a lot I know about Beings like Thor, and the mythos of those worlds, not necessarily the Marvel one. There's no future with a Being like Thor, which is one of the reasons I waxed lyric about Hawkeye.



    With Tony and Thor it was part of the getting to know one another, and I get that- as Cap's remarks at the end demonstrated. I have always noted that certain energy is far more suited to a certain type of destruction than what I am. That's why I like the Hawkeye and Black Widow dynamic.

    Quote The Killers thing wasn't aimed at you, you f***ing banana. It was aimed at her.
    Again, I knew that, I was just putting another twist on it. I was obliquely pointing out to you something that you have and she doesn't and that it's never going to work with one prepared to go deeper than the other. It's my oblique way of stating openly 'you're the stronger Being in that regard' and, like Tony and Thor, extending a degree of salute about that.

    Quote Not that she would go near a forum like this with a ten foot stick. As you know.
    *laughing* No appreciation for yodelling and fantabulous hats? I can't begin to imagine that world. But then I was always in the freak group...

    Hello. If this post does not appear normal to you, please consult your normality provider for an upgrade.

    All my writing flows from my subjective and autonomous perspective. External agreement, heteronomy or homogeny is utterly unnecessary: the reader's subjective assumptions and interpretations are the reader's own responsibility.

    I'm non-human. I will not permit any individual to District 9 me regarding this.
