The Town of Odyssey

<t>Having grown up conservative Christian with certain passages being misused in such a fashion as earlier in this thread, I can tell you it is very harmful indeed. I entered into an abusive relationship as a direct result of the misuse of scripture by those around me. While that situation is unrela...

Those breakout sessions and keynotes look incredibly interesting. I would have been interested in listening to some of the perspectives.

Those of us who no longer live at home are at a disadvantage. I could go through my husband's closet and create a wearable outfit.

I am disappointed this hasn't been dubbed "VOTE FOR THE BEST TOOSTACHE"

Then do 616 on your left so you can be sure you get it right either way.

Numbers which have as much negative meaning as any blasphemous or profane word in existence. Stop pretending to be ignorant and show a little respect. Oh I am far from ignorant. Which is why I don't have any spurious ideas about 666 being some sort of ultimate devil sign. Especially given there is ...

Her previous 666 was removed by an admin? Oh. That's dumb. I was unaware of that.

NOW IT MAKES SENSE. But not, because I'd say the authority is being belligerent for removing something as dumb as three numbers they don't like. :<

Refresh my memory on WHY putting numbers in your signature is "belligerently going against authority?" That's fuzzy for me.

My daughter isn't talking yet and it's sad because I KNOW she would say awesome things.

She's close though. SOON I SHALL HAVE CUTE CONVERSATIONS.

I say that's the best idea Jelly has ever had.

Certainly better than a certain "like" button that never happened. '

I was doing work at the coffee shop today and the consignment store next door had a huge bin of clothes that were $1.99. I bought three dresses, a couple of tank tops and a cute pair of white lace shorts. SCORE.

HOW DARE A WOMAN REVEAL THE FACT SHE HAS A SHAPE. >.> Burquas for everyone.

I'm excited to have the day off and spend time with my family. But this quote sums up my feelings on American nationalism, which I see a lot of on the Fourth of July. "There is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we’re the greatest country in the world. We’re 7th in literacy, 2...

I bought gas yesterday. That was fun. >.>

My most recent online purchase was a set of tapers and plugs with which to stretch (or "gauge" as it's commonly called) my ears. And no, there won't be giant holes in them forever.

I'm near the top! WIN!

I used to play those all the time. I'm not sure if they make them for Mac though, and I don't have a PC anymore. I love them! Yes, I'm too old for them, but I loved the books as a kid and the games are both fun and difficult enough to hold my attention.

"Obsessed" is a rather strong word.

Booyah. Bring back the hippies. :hippy: :hippy2: Minus the hair. And the drugs. So, normal people? Apparently. Normal people minus showers... and lot's of tie-dye? So basically kids in 4th grade or so. :anxious: Also, what's wrong with the hippie hair Kait? I dig the hair. The hipster thing is a pa...

quite a few of you people acting all 'cool' and 'independent' just to get in in with the already so-called 'cool/hip' and 'independent' people. Yeah! All you non-cool and dependent people need to stop faking it just to fit in with the cool/hip and independent people like me. :x THE 60s-70s ARE COMI...
