Share, if you'll recall, I suggested to you that you should stop saying "You aren't making any sense" and say instead, "I can't make any sense of what you're saying," because that's more accurate.
The parallel is actually quite clear if you take a few minutes to think about it: the old monk did the "beautiful, young girl" a good turn, but the young monk thought what the old monk had done was shameful. Get it now? (And do you understand why the notion that the "beautiful, young girl" was drowning completely destroys the point of the story? I'll bet you don't.)

I simply think it's over and done. ---In [email protected], <authfriend@...> wrote: So you're saying Barry's "SHUT THE FUCK UP" post to you from August was positive and that I'm mistaken to think it was negative? Do you think he's changed his mind about you? (BTW, I don't believe in the original version of the story that the "beautiful, young girl" was drowning. In the original version, she was just standing by the river helplessly, unable to cross. If the old monk had saved her life, it wouldn't have made much sense for the young monk to feel the old monk had done something wrong. Whoever added the drowning bit obviously missed the whole point of the story.) Share persisted nonsensically: > Well, Judy I'm not young and I think I'm cute rather than beautiful.

And of Barry as that monk? Just trying to understand how I've reminded you of this story that we've all heard so often, because I can't quite see the connection. I mean, neither of the monks said anything about the "beautiful, young girl" being stupid (at least not in the standard version of the story). ---In [email protected], <sharelong60@...> wrote: LOL, Judy, Judy, Judy, you remind me of the story of 2 brahmacharyas who came to a river and saw a beautiful, young girl drowning there. The older of the monks jumped in and carried her to the opposite shore. Then he and the young monk continued their journey. A little later the young monk got upset with the old monk for breaking their vows by touching a woman. The old monk wisely noted that he had left her at the river. But the young monk, who had not touched her at all, was still carrying her. Flow on, Judy, flow on!

An Open Message To Share turquoiseb Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:51:44 -0700 SHUT THE FUCK UP We get it that you don't care how unintelligent you come across, and that you're trying to single-handedly prove the contention of anti-TM critics that TMers are blissninnies without a brain cell in their thick skulls who will believe anything if they're told its Woo Woo enough. But do you have to be such a codependent, attention-seeking masochist about it? Not only have you been making yourself the object of pursuit of your Jr. High School-mentality tormentors, you've been doing it *purposefully*. For fuck's sake, STOP. You're even more boring than they are as they chase you endlessly like a dog chases a ball. The "mean girls" trying to "get" you are an embarrassment to the notion of humans having compassion, but you're an embarrassment to the notion of humans having intelligence. They're doing this because they have no choice; they're the dogs in this scenario: [https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/q71/1002189_1015\ 1783564220211_2025423059_n.jpg] You're doing it because you're not terribly smart, or interesting, and you crave attention anyway. And you don't fucking care whether you drag a whole forum down to your level of idiocy to get it. ---In [email protected], <turquoiseb@...> wrote: --- In [email protected] mailto:[email protected], Ann wrote: > > > ---In [email protected] mailto:[email protected], > > sharelong60@ wrote: > > > > Emily, it is and has been a pleasure for me to read posts > > from just about all the men on FFL The posts of the > > MGC?

Mean Girls need not apply. Mean Girls need not apply for membership in the human race. They don't qualify. > Are all the girls here "mean" BTW? The only ones we can be fairly certain fall into the Mean Girls category are the ones who have been piling on to Share ever since one of them got called on being a faux feminist. That would be Judy, Ann, and Emily. This behavior is about as *anti-feminist* as it gets. Personally I think Share should just write all three of them off as if they don't exist, but she compassionately still interacts with them, as she does with the other attention troll, Willytex. Waste 'o fuckin' time, if you ask me, but so be it, and better her than me.
