Calling Obie one kobi, Why does it seem as of late that there seems to be some tension between some of our fellow F-150 brothers??. From supposedly faked pictures to arguments over a huge speaker. I myself think maybe a group hug thread may be in order. What are your thoughts.??

I will offer the first Hug, does anyone have a hug smiley (((((HUG)))))

 

Dear buckdropper -

You may be right . . . a group hug may be just the thing.

Although I don't have a hug smiley, I can provide a group hug pic:



(By the way . . . Can I call you "Bucky" . . . I mean, after a group hug, it seems appropriate, right? . . . OK . . . maybe not.)

You're right. It has been getting pretty edgy around here lately. It's also funny you should point this out and use a post I was involved in as an example, because I just wrote a long response to PSS-Mag right before I came across your post here. More than coincidence? I think not! (By the way . . . I meant no animosity toward Matt and tried to clarify, although given the level of intensity around here lately, my post may just upset him more . . . we will have to wait and see).

Why does this happen? Mostly because people are self-absorbed a$$hoIes. Oh, we try to get along, and we can usually be on our best behaviour most of the time . . . but, sooner or later, IT happens.

You see, people are territorial . . . and this is the foundation for other behaviours such as "NOT only is this MY domain . . . but everything I say, think, and believe is law here . . . and in fact, it's law everywhere!!!! Only I am right! I don't care what you think! Express your opinion (which is wrong) and I will express (or re-express) my own with greater emphasis, because it's ALL ABOUT ME!!!!!

Now, although no one likes to admit this, EVERYBODY feels this way deep down inside. It's a part of human nature. That's just the way it is.

Polite society, and the rules of that society, say that such feelings and thoughts are not acceptable, and therefore we must suppress such things . . . this is not easy to do just because we are fighting nature in doing so. And society makes it worse by sending us mixed signals. Our cultural is predicated on the idea that we are INDIVIDUALS,and that the individual is supreme . . . but we are also told that EVERYONE is great, and all of us can be president, and no one is any better than anyone else, because we're all created equal . . . and then in the same breath we are told that each of us is unique and special that that each of us is really cool, and TV brainwashes us into it's all about "I" "I" "I" "ME" "ME" "ME" "MINE" "MINE" "MINE", a mindset that is hammered into us from the moment of our inception.

So is it any wonder you see a lot of angry people around ? . . . we are all confused out of our minds! And this creates stress, and eventually the pressure valve pops, and one of us snaps and starts to set off others, and the next thing you know, we start arguing about how a photo that isn't photoshopped is photoshopped, regardless if it matters or not.

Far be it for me to get into a discussion about human nature and American marketing . . . . suffice it to say that such outbursts are cyclical. Just like winter turns to spring turns to summer, we vacillate between composed to aggressive to passive etc., etc., etc.

Oh yeah, and that summer thing I mentioned just above . . . 105 degree heat and 167 percent humidity tends to put folks off just a bit.

Ignore it if you can. If you can't, vent. Take that rifle of yours and go shoot targets at 1200 yards. (I stress targets . . . not people).

A bulls-eye at 1200 yards in a good crosswind is always rewarding and relieves stress.

As for the rest of you . . . Stresstabs™ and a group hug . . . NOW!

Hey "D" get your hand away from there dammmmm...

 

Where did your plane go?

 

DEar Kobi

Have you disappeared so you wont have to live up to your obligations as the "Dear Kobi" Q&A thread???

 

Some moron used water based paint. We went thru a storm and it washed the Kobi 2008 paint job off . . .

When we landed, it was an all white plane and no one noticed us.

Proof that it pays to advertise.

 

Good one Kob. Snuck off on a 3 day nooner huh? Anyone we know...racerchick hasn't been on in a while either. Hmmm...

 

What's with all the sex threads I have seen lately? And is any thread safe from sexual innuendo?

What's up with everyone on this site? Did everyone's ***** expand to the size of basketballs, and suddenly no one can contain themselves from seeing / discussing / engaging in (or as is most likely with this group . . . PRETENDING to engage in) and having fond (but highly exaggerated) memories of such?

In response to your question, NO, I did not sneak off for a three day "nooner" (Actually, I'm not even sure what "nooner" means, but I can guess, and that's what I'm doing in this instance . . . assuming what it means) . . . and therefore that answers and puts to an end any speculation about "racerchick" (and now I'll have to find out who that is).

Thanks for asking though.

K-

 

Man, that really sucks you got it hard!!! Man my girlfriend did that to me now she's my ex she was like whys the sky blue or some stupid question and I go now think about that she goes I dono i'm like ugh lol she goes ugh I herd that ahh women..

 

 

 

I've got a stupid question that if given the proper effort I could probably answer myself, but what is the fun in that?

Anyway, my old boss and I are still friends (because she is really hot!!!) and we sometimes go to the gym together, I help her out at work etc. Well here is the thing, she is hot, she thinks I am attractive, she will flirt with me and give me signs (I've been around the block a bit so I know what to look for) but whenever I return the favor she just blows me off and gives me $h*t :P. I had a relationship in the past with my current boss (she wasn't my boss at the time, long story) and I will never do it again.

I am just curious what your take is on the situation. Oh some, er, other details... At a christmas party she was all-over me, really, all over , oh and I'm 23, she is 40, and married.... oops.

All things aside I will never do anything with her, I just don't understand the flirting, making-out at christmas party stuff, and no action...Then when I flirt back she gets funny.

Hope this kills some time

 

Dear Redroush98 -

O.K. . . . .

What's my take on this? Ummm . . . well, OK, you asked.

First I have some questions:

You write: "Anyway, my old boss and I are still friends (because she is really hot!!!) "

Are you only friends with her because she's really hot? Is that the only reason?

and then you write: " . . . we sometimes go to the gym together." Why?

You also write: " . . . oh and I'm 23, she is 40, and married.... oops." Which of you is married . . . the way you wrote this it sounds like she is, and I'm going to make my comments based on that assumption.

And you also wrote:
" . . . she will flirt with me and give me signs (I've been around the block a bit so I know what to look for) but whenever I return the favor she just blows me off and gives me $h*t" (Keep this in mind, I'll get to it shortly).


and this kicker . . . " . . . had a relationship in the past with my current boss (she wasn't my boss at the time, long story) and I will never do it again."


First, a piece of advice . . . NEVER EVER GET INVOLVED WITH ANYONE YOU WORK WITH, regardless if they're your boss or not. I'm not going to explain this one any further . . . it's pretty clear . . . DON'T DO IT. Not the boss, the boss's secretary, the general staff, the janitor, not anyone . . . not even anyone in another office down the street, or the foreign office. GOT IT?!?!?! OK.

Now, on to your "friend" (note the quotations marks . . . that means she is anything but).

First, be thankful that she is not your boss any more, or you would most certainly be unemployed by now or work for a different company.

Anyone who comes on to you and when you respond or return in kind, and they give you chit, is a TEASE . . . if she is doing it repeatedly and always slamming you down, she has deeper problems than being a tease and it goes beyond just phucking with you. Now I'm not going to offer a DSM-IV diagnosis here and come out and say she's probably bi-polar or something like that . . . . I'm just going to say, you'd do best to stay away. And besides . . . SHE'S MARRIED !!!! Besides the fact that her behaviour speaks volumes about her cheating, lying, sick, perverted nature . . . . what the hell are you doing responding to someone who's married????

Anyway, proselytizing aside . . . in response to :

"... I just don't understand the flirting, making-out at christmas party stuff, and no action...Then when I flirt back she gets funny."

What's to understand? She's a tease, selfish, wack-job, and a big problem looking for a place to happen if you keep hanging out with her . . . so stop it.

And remember . . . never with anyone at work.

This is all just my opinion of course . . . I could be wrong . . . .

removed at Kobi's request.

 

Well, if you must . . . I thought I pretty much had it covered . . .


Me . . . serious? Something must be wrong.




WHOA there cowboy!!!!! The Hell???? Somebody has some issues with infidelity!!!! Step away from the keyboard and take a deep breath.

Now . . . as much as I appreciate your input, this is Just Ask Kobi™, it's NOT Just Ask The Marquis de Sade™. If you'd like to start your own "Just Ask" thread where you dispense advice along with suggestions for chastisement, please feel free to do so, but come on man . . . . DAMN!!! you're gonna scare away my readers!!!!

That said, dude . . . what's up with so much anger over the possibility of infidelity?? Get burned once? Or twice?? If so, ever wonder if it might have something to do with your extreme thoughts of revenge?

Hey, you know . . . just wonderin' . . .

On the other hand, your ideas are creative, to say the least, and even though they may be a bit overboard for poor Redroush98 . . . I could see them being used against people who talk on cell phones while driving . . . especially the ones who are weaving all over the place.

Take a sedative, or two, or three, and kick back. It's Sunday, so take it easy.
