I wonder if she knew the people or at least the person she kicked & was mad at em for something. There's lots of vids online of people suddently going psycho mad because they see someone they hate.

You're right, the word has been surgically removed from cyberspace. Assuming it was ever there. I though the internet knew everything.


I knew exactly what "jellyburner" was. As a kid, I took a special interest in building weapons of all types, including flame throwers. The "jelly" is a form of napalm (ie. jelled gasoline) that sticks to things very easily while burning. I learned how to make it from one of my uncles (RIP Vietnam vet). He helped me with designing a prototype based upon his knowledge of what they used back then.

As for the information being washed off of the internet: There is a good reason why it has been mostly wiped. If you have ever played with materials like that, you would understand how dangerous it can be. It is like a bunch of cobras in a glass bottle. Not everything should be in the hands of novices.

how often does someone tell you "i beat yo ass?". what was your answer?



Sounds like she had mental health crisis going on. People with mental illnesses will yell out homophobic slurs, threaten people, harass them, all you can do is just walk away, ignore them. Pay them no attention. Giving them attention by reacting escalates it. I've seen it a lot here on the light rail. I get more annoyed at people responding to them than the mentally ill person because they're just making it worse and it affects the rest of the passengers. If you feel so threatened by their words, that is what the security button is for. Press it and call for security to report a person in mental health crisis. They will come and remove them off the train and handle it outside at the stop.

Anywhere else in public, that is what 911 is for. Do not confront the person.

Only people who have ever harassed me were women with mental illnesses, never men.

I can understand the recipe not being bandied around in the public domain - though I don't know how they'd police that. But for the very name to be taboo, that's like being forbidden from saying "bomb."

I was on the bus when a strange dude got on and started saying "don't follow me. Stanky ass b***h
How. What do you need, someone to whip your ass?". I didn't say or do anything. He didn't touch me. The bus driver didn't say anything either. He got off the bus before me.

Almost every time I read the thread title I think of an old song by the Goo Goo Dolls called "Don't Beat My A$$ (With A Baseball Bat)". The boyfriend of a woman he just met caught them having sex & is chasing him around with a baseball bat. IDK if he knew the woman was in a relationship or not but if he did he was a dumba$$ for knowingly taking a risk :lol:

Yesterday at the bus stop, one boy was taunting another boy to physically fight with him. Five against one. One boy video taped and sprayed something on his face.

Even looking at it scared me because anything could provoke anyone. "Logic could be used to justify anything".

----------------

July 2021, former paint supervisor bao said that he said that Beto "lazy" and Beto tried to hit him with a forklift and pulled a knife on him. Bao said he was on administrative leave and after that home Depot decided to make bao the Plumbing Supervisor instead of paint supervisor

Bao said everyone was happy

I don't know how bao could be happy with that arrangement because he still works in the same building as Beto

Even I don't feel comfortable in the same building as Beto

Today on my way to the bus stop some idiot had the nerve to bark at me "n***a. b***h. fa***t. You not in America. You wearing my hoodie. You look like I slapped you.". I didn't make any action or statement in reaction. I just tried to ignore him.

(Moderators: the above quotation is a direct quote. He said it, not me. It is not my opinion.)

Briefly afraid he would physically injure me but he didn't.

Some insects just talk too much. They act like any time they are not happy it proves that someone violated their stupid lil "rights"

today a stranger had the nerve to tell me "you just standing there, ugly b***h."

(moderators: the above quotation is what the stranger told me. it is not my opinion)

she had just crossed the street against the light and i was waiting for a green light.

as usual, i didn't answer b/c almost every time i try to say the slightest thing, precious lil "people" do not: hear, care, understand, believe or remember what i said. and even if they did, then what? whooptie do.
