Diving Duck Blues

(written by T. Mahal)

If the river was whiskey
I would be a diving duck
If the river was whiskey
I would be a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom, but I would drink my way up

If you were a good woman
I would never have to roam
If you were a good woman
I would never have to roam
I’d give up drinking whiskey and I would always stay at home

River go to the ocean, ocean go to the sea
Why you ain’t no good woman
A mystery to me
River go to the ocean, ocean go to the sea
And like a fish has got to swim, you’ve got to make a fool out of me

If the river was whiskey
I would be a diving duck
If the river was whiskey
I would be a diving duck
I would swim to the bottom, but I would drink my way up

I am Spartacus!

No, wait. I'm not Spartacus.

I've got it, I'm Brian! Nope that's not right either.

Maybe I should check the list: I am Iron Man? Nope. I am The Cheese? That's not right either. I am woman hear me roar. *checks down shirt* Apparantly not. I don't seem to know who I am.

D'Hip:

Ever have a fish bowl when you were a kid? Or maybe even an aquarium in your house, today?

You feed the fishies, and then they make poopie. If you don't keep the inside of their bowl clean, it gets all rancid, green and generally unhealthy. Remember?

Same thing with River, except a lot fishier and full of crap...



Analogically,

zoid

P.S.
Nothing worse than a stagnant River that can't flush itself...

There's a little bit of River in all of us, which is why we love her so, even when she's taking a virtual hacksaw to us.

I don't.

And she's making me not want to come here anymore.

If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

What do you suppose the odds are that that's exactly how he/she is trying to make people feel?

I've interacted with 'her' a couple of times, and I will say this without fear of contradiction: River6213, whomever he or she may actually be -- whether poor, unloved 'rich bitch' (by her own admission) or pimple-faced Boy Loser -- is deeply ill in the head.

Whether 'she' is who she says she is, or whether it's all an elaborate act, a well person doesn't engage in the games 'she' plays. And here's the thing with sick people who know they are sick, and do nothing about it: They'll destroy you, in the process of destroying themselves.

I've watched as much of this as I can stomach. Some people think she can be healed through their love and understanding. If they're just understanding enough, she will magically be transformed into a considerate person.

That's called co-dependency. 'She' needs to seek professional help, and well-intending-but-ultimately-clueless people need to stop enabling her predatory and destructive behavior. Period, dot, end of story.

In the meantime, my advice to everyone is to get as far from her as you possibly can. When one of these big 'ships of the head' goes under, it sucks everything near it to the bottom as well.

As to you, Misstressahara: Try to focus on the good stuff. The good news is, if 'she' (or anyone else) tries to mug you, well, it ain't a real mugging. You can't ignore a real mugging...



Respectfully,

zoid

P.S.
I used to kill trolls on this site. But nobody wins when you do. The poison necessary to rid the place of vermin, sickens the rightful inhabitants as well. The best thing to do is starve 'em to death.

Hello Everybody:

I think this is an excellent thread. We all have our ways to deal with issues such as this. And we need to blow off steam.

Friday I saw River6213 messing with onthedrifts head. I don't know onthedrift, maybe younger or older than me, but a Browncoat is a Browncoat. I will help any Browncoat attacked the way River6213 attacked onthedrift. She says she knows she has problems. If you know you have problems, you seek help. I know because I suffer from some. I am a recovering alcoholic. A child of an alcoholic. I suffer from depression. It took my doctor fifteen years to learn I was bipolar. I have seen my share. No. I'm not looking for self pity. Drinking booze was my own choice. Self inflicted wound you may say. But I am locky. I discovered what a horses I was making of my self and got help. Along the way the good people of AA have taught me to help others and not to attack those who are suffering themselves. I never responded to any of River6213 taunts. She can Blah Blah Blah all day and I will not respond. I do not feed trolls! I don't know if I did all the right things friday night, but I got a thread to Haken. I have since learned there are better methods and will use them in the future. I know good people when I meet them, and you are good people. I aim to stay.

Traveler is now going back to the business of this fansite, discussing Firefly, Imponderables, and limericks.


Yes. You bring up limericks again and you will have to suffer through poor attempts at them.

In addition to the very good advice of not responding to personal attacks or other trollish posts, please also contact me or Succatash (via our profiles) so we can delete the offending posts.

Just please try not to add fuel to the fire, 'cuz I would rather just delete one post than fifty, dong ma?
