A True Kaniggit

Yep. Now that’s a phobia.

Yeah. Like fiddle duels.

Damn Southerners.

But are fears of snakes, cockroaches, and spiders really that irrational? The little bastards can actually be scary depending on their size and biting capability.

I suppose whether this is true or not will depend on the results of our November elections. I’m glad we’re finally sending this long overdue aid to Ukraine. But I’m still saddened about the thousands of dead Ukrainian’s who might not have died if it wasn’t for the asshole Republicans in congress that delayed this aid for so long.

I had to look these up. First I saw ‘cricket’, and thought “not scary”. Then I saw ‘giant’. Yep. Those monstrosities can stay in New Zealand.

There was a patient that has this fear back when I worked in an emergency department. His family brought him in and he was completely out of it, just screaming, incapable of saying what was wrong with him. It took a while before a doctor thought to check his ears and found a little cockroach in there.

Ummm. Do you not know your fellow posters? None of us are getting paid! I do this because I enjoy it.

I watched Civil War last Sunday. And my thoughts are that the battle scenes during the movie show exactly what they are supposed to. How terrifying and bloody a civil war in the U.S. would be. But story wise, the movie is a let down. But I would still watch it again for the battle scenes. Especially for the audio during the battles. BANG!

SIgh. And I thought I was the crazy one (see the phobia thread) But since I am crazy, I do actually have hope for the Ukraine Aid this time. I put the odds at 90% to 10% it passes.

Do you have a Phobia? They are a pain. This is the first definition that came up when googled. A phobia is an uncontrollable, irrational, and lasting fear of a certain object, situation, or activity. I have a phobia of floating away, and then falling from a great height. Yeah, I KNOW it is crazy, and I KNOW it is irrational. I KNOW how gravity works. But my phobia still makes it's appearance known under certain circumstances. (After riding roller coasters repeatedly, while driving though wide open country, and while walking across long bridges) Intellectually I know my fears are nonsense. And I know what I fear is impossible. But I'm still terrified every time, no matter how many times I force myself to take the actions to prove to myself the fear is groundless. Do you have a phobia?

Just finished the last episode. So our we assuming concerning Cooper Howard's wife and child....

Fine. I'll put one my 'I'm Right' hat and lay things out plainly for you before my bedtime. Below is what you posted, and what I responded to. "I wouldn't be surprised if more developed nations have them than we think." You think unknown developed nations have secret nukes, as in some crazy conspiracy.. And I said any developed nation that had nukes would reveal them as a deterrent. Weird that you responded to this with some crazy tangent.

I broke it down to 2 antiseptics and 1 plastic. I needed the crafting materials.

No. That may seem like a safe bet, but I’m not betting my balls on anything. They keep me from falling backwards.

Pakistan and India are for each other. Israel for the surrounding enemy states. Great Britain and France are allies. I suppose North Korea and Russia fit your criteria. Which ones am I missing?

No.

Nah. Strategically that makes zero sense. The bombs are deterrents.

But no deaths reported so far? That seems to be the main factor right now, a way to deescalate for both parties. Iran can say they retaliated for the attack on their consulate, but Israel has not suffered enough damage where they will feel compelled to retaliate.

Yeah, that seems far more likely than what I said.

For World Peace?

FUCK YEAH MOTHERFUCKER! But not really. I thought we all took other poster's little idiosyncrasies in stride. Especially after all these years.

And I see no reason why President Biden could not lead the country against such a threat.
