Have you ever seen that movie "Scanners" where the guy's head blows up? That what would happen in the elevator....no match is gonna help ya....

How many threads have they started with "I just ate a whole bag of oreos, your band sucks" When others have questioned what type of example this is for the DSers children....boy do they get irate....

Wasa: I came and read...and you are right its therapuetic. Its hard to convey on this board the toxicity and outright rage that a group of DSers on OH have towards all other WLS. It got so bad that OH had to give us bandsters a private forum so you wouldnt be attacked. It was so disgusting to see someone post and say they were in bandster hell or ask if they needed a fill and have that group come on and tell them they were F-ing morons and total idiots for getting the lap band in the first place. They would provoke with threads saying 7 out of 10 bands fail etc. Newbies were confused and the DSers could never be reasoned with. I love how they continually deny the stink problem. They can deny it all they want every doctor I have ever talked to says that is a real problem and actually is a reason to NOT get the surgery if you have better options. In my mind almost every other main stream WLS is better. I dont go to R&R on OH because its not a healthy debate its this group of DSers that are so into their propaganda they are delusional.

Yes I am "for real". I cant believe people disagree with stuff they admit to doing no research on. Your daughter's wiccan/pagan beliefs are not my concern. I am talking about in century's past. This is high school history..not even college where they definitely support my view and elaborate on it quite a bit. Most of the nations that surrounded the Israelites in biblical times were PAGAN. There customs varied, but some of those customs were child sacrifice and sex orgies. I dont know what people who live now and choose to call themselves Pagan's practice. Nor do I care. This thread was on the origin of Christmas..so thats the time frame I was discussing.

I stand by my original comments on the subject of this thread. As far as defending myself against "out of the blue" or (midnight blue) who has admitted to trolling .....who cares what her character judgments are? If she has to hide and name call from her hole in the ground...well there must be a reason. If you disagree then disagree like an adult on the subject of the thread. Resorting to character assassination of people who hadnt even commented on the thread shows "midnight troll" has an agenda not even relating to the subject.

Susan you scared the crap out of me! I forget on LBT when you get a response on a thread it isnt necessarily a response to your own post! So sorry! call me an A$$ now. I jumped to a conclusion right of a cliff.

Well thats interesting about declaring yourself a modern day pagan. Any encyclopedia or history book will tell you what Pagans did through out history. Infact, most of my knowledge comes from history class.

There are Christians who dont celebrate Christmas because of its origins. Its common knowledge Christ did not institute the practice nor did his apostles or members of the first century congregation. Pagans were the people (simplistically) that practiced sex orgies and threw their kids into the fire to sacrifice to false gods. Constantine in the 4th century wanted to unite his kindgom thus a melding of Christian and pagan beliefs. Some Christians feel that anything that was unclean at one time...i.e. pagan practices will not be made clean by calling it Christian. December 25, was the date chosen for pagan reasons. Any encyclopedia will read that Christ couldnt possibly have been born that day. Santa Claus, the tree, yule logs, lights, presents given to each other, etc. all have pagan origins.

What about the people that will get a WLS on Medicare or Medicaid and will not be successful because they dont follow the guidelines? I have met many lap band recipients who had insurance coverage and therefore paid little out of pocket who would not be considered a success by Inamed because they lost only a small percentage if any excess weight.

If your Hasselhoff was'nt directed at me then I guess it was the bitch flakes. If it was then you deserve it. I mean no one should just go around shoving Hasselhoff's on people, we do live in a civilized society.

Apparently you were interested enough to find a graphic to post and then "act" bored. Good one. I buy it. But then again the beauty of R&R you can be as rude as you want to be.

P.S. Forgot to add that I would absolutely hate it if the nice police were allowed to wreak havoc in R&R. Thats what I love about this place.. that they arent here. How do you geninuely rant and rave with people censoring you and telling you to only rant and rave in a politically correct-tactful-sensitive-to-others-type fashion?
