can you see that one?
also, I'd say Balto doesn't count because it was traditional animation and loosely based on a true story.

Kids can be aggravating. But you have to realize that we were all somewhat annoying as kids. Just the way it be.The Grey Wolverine wrote:Sorrow: So, I was doing community service today, and I still hate children, I left because they were unbearable and downright rude. When a 10 year old hits a counselor's butt, puts ice down the shirts of several people including counselors, he tells me he won't listen to me tell him to stop because I'm not his Mom, AND I was spoken down to by several of them, its a wonder I didn't try to hit any of them.
I don't know why, but Shiro's avatar of Peanut and Grape made that statement ten times better. And I agree.Shirosune wrote:Sometimes the greatest victory really is the battle not fought. I would hardly call it 'weakness or cowardice' to have had the strength to walk away from that situation. You gauged your emotions and your control at the time and chose the best possible path. To put it another way: You used discretion, which I'd personally call a sign of strength.
You did NOT "wuss out". You were SMART. You knew that you would have said or done something wrong, and so rather than let that happen you left. I'm sorry it wasn't possible to be more friendly but given the circumstances, I'd say that was the best thing to do.Radio Blue Heart wrote:Sorrow: I just ran into an old boss that fired me.
He was the kind of boss who let me sweat it out for four whole days before he came to a decision on my fate. Four days. I hate him like I hate no other. I rounded a corner and he happily smiles and said "Hi, Blue Heart!" I stopped dead and walked in another direction. I could not tell if he was being sarcastic or if he thought that we were still friends, even though we were not during our working relationship. It was more a camp commandant/inmate relationship. My blood was boiling. I know that if I did speak to him I would have said or done something that I would have regretted. But, I also feel that I wussed out, I showed weakness and cowardice in the face of the enemy.
Ugh...
Take the advice of an old friend of mine, its the bigger man, who walks away.Radio Blue Heart wrote:Sorrow: I just ran into an old boss that fired me.

Why don't you get yourself a Kindle fire?Wanderer wrote: Sorrow: I got scamed, you Amazon! Giving me books with missing pages and repeats of the same chapters! It took a good two weeks to get here and the quality is horrendous. I am so mad! It wasn't even cheap either!
I'm sorry you and your mom are having trouble Sleet. Hopefully you guys can work it out and find a way to get along. And blaming that on you playing Magic? That's just wrong.Sleet wrote:Sorrow: My mom basically suggested that me playing Magic might have caused my dad to leave her. She says she didn't mean that, but only when she found out I was upset. The only way I can make my mom happy is to do well with my career...
