Don't forget about 'projection'. That's always fun.

[Ookpik]

It took you 20 minutes to come up with

An observation that proves the point.

[Davidgeo]

I don't usually have a point.

Point's,,,,

are for a******s ; )

[Ookpik]

You mean decimals right?

[Ookpik]

Or is it periods?

Does that explain the fixation?

[Davidgeo]

Nah, I almost always divide by zero.

[Ookpik]

If only that was clever

[Ookpik]

Again eh?

I guess this is a bi-monthly thing now

[Davidgeo]

Fair enough.

[Ookpik]

Look just be nice man. F**k if I'm not your enemy

[Ookpik]

This Russian s**t is off, take a minute and figure that out

[Davidgeo]

That's a totally reasonable response.

I used to smoke an ounce a week, working off ptsd, and wound up in a psych ward.

It was the worst experience of my life, counting my arm getting cut off, and I've been managing a drinking habit ever since

[Ookpik]

It takes a minute

[Davidgeo]

I can relate but not really on the same level. Your kind of PTSD is far different than mine. Far, far worse. I never lost anything like you have. Not many people have.

Keep it close your eye on the substance abuse... there's a tipping point, stay away from it.

Look man, you got something - and for the last eight years, my way of coping has been trying to man up and brush the s**t off

[Ookpik]

It's a b***h man, I see it, it's f*****g hard

[Ookpik]

That's alright

[Ookpik]

And sure as s**t if you tell me to go get a dog I'm going to walk, but f**k man, it sucks

[Davidgeo]

If you rely on that "man up" mantra you're never going to find your way. It is hard. It is difficult. It always will be. But it doesn't have to be balls to wall 24/7. Relax, take it easy sometimes. You've come this far, sit down and take a look at what's around you.

[Ookpik]

I'll take it.

[Ookpik]

You're giving s**t advice, and maybe it's my turn to tale a minute, but at least your not trying to run me up the a*s

[Davidgeo]

Ha... Fair enough.
