Original post: Making Light Promises
Is this her way of telling us her picture is coming? Since she sorta promised it.
A pretty accurate image is painted when you leave small children with someone named “Big Mike”.. no wonder this kid needs to clench a blanket!
For fuck’s sake V, can you give us some real info for once - why the fuck do you have so many stories about you and damaged kids that are not yours?? You are either full of shit, or some foster parent super star in Ohio with a dozen broken kids under your oh-so-brilliant care.
And yeah, where is the photo you PROMISED?
(sorry for the f-bombs, but these recent posts are too shitty)
Okay, great story, but how do you spend a small fortune unlocking a school building? When I was in high school, I (and most of the student body) knew how to break into the building (for nothing,) when I left a book there, and if I didn’t know those methods, I’m not sure how money would have helped that situation…
Who woulda thought V would turn out to be a good guy…….
V never promised to show her pic. I believe that it was a tricky question. If we took the $500 she would bitch about us being greedy jerks. The only correct answer probably was to donate that money to charity or something. V is a lot like Dr. House, I think, without the limp though…
And as about the story she is damn right, never fucking break a promise you made to a kid.
I’m a bit surprised at the amount of money it required to get into the school. Depending on the area, though, some schools are locked on the weekends, period. Teachers aren’t even allowed to come in.
At my school, there is always somebody staying late or coming in on weekends. I was there making copies on Easter. Seems like, if she had known the teacher or principal’s number, she should have been able to get in the building.
However, if she had to get a friend to help her break into the school… I can see how that would cost her a fair penny. That is one thing you don’t want to get caught doing, and it really isn’t easy, short of breaking a window. Really breaking into a school is actually quite difficult, these days.
“There ain’t no good guys, there ain’t no bad guys,
There’s only you and me and we just disagree”
~whoever wrote it…”
“However, I am going to need some extra time to put this all together. For one thing, I haven’t picked the charity yet. Suggestions in that department are still appreciated. Also, I now need to go get my picture taken since I assume you guys want something recent. Suggestions on ways to prove it’s actually me in the picture might also come in handy. I really, really, really don’t want to hold up a cheesy fucking sign. After all, if people are going to photoshop that bitch, I want the images to be creative. I can’t just hand you content, for Christ’s sake!”
This was posted on Feb 15. It’s been 6 weeks and she couldn’t pick a damn charity and get someone to snap a picture of her? Oh yeah, she got “sick” and then had to go to the store and buy yogurt. She’s a coward. Plain and simple.
Wow! People are really jerks. I hope she never posts a picture. She doesn’t owe that to you and it doesn’t make her a coward. She’s someone who WANTS to remain anonymous. Why is that such a hard concept to understand? (Well, I do believe there are problems with reading comprehension in the U.S., but that’s off-topic here).
Anyway, regarding the ‘blog post:
V is absolutely right. A child will get their heart broken many, many times, but a parent is the last person that should break it.
Adults far too often forget what it’s like to be a child.
THANK YOU, al. Jesus Christ, you guys are fucking animals.
Hey, you reap what you sow. If she’s entitled to bitch and moan about other people then she should be able to take some bitching and moaning herself. Why should you expect her audience to be at all sympathetic?
‘If you dont have the balls to be hated…’
You’re right she doesn’t OWE me anything, which is why I have no plans to sue her on Judge Judy anytime soon. If she wants to remain anonymous, fine, but don’t ask people to vote whether they want money or to see a picture of her, then not post a picture when that option receives the most votes.
I think the reason she won’t post a picture is because then she will be outed for the liar that she is. Sorry, but I don’t believe half of the crap she’s written about her poor, horrible childhood.
I really hope all these people who are bitching about seeing the picture plan to donate enough money to make it happen. Remember, if she doesn’t raise enough money, we won’t see anything anyway.
And Roxy, you do realize she’s posting a picture, right? Not a copy of the child services reports from when she was a child, right? How the hell will the world be able to tell she’s a liar just from looking at a picture of her? Don’t be an idiot.
Ummm, because someone might recognize her and call her on her bullshit. Like “Hey we grew up together and I don’t remember that part about you running away because your mom beat your ass and I certainly don’t remember you being forced to get MARRIED at 15 to escape the evil shrew.”
Respect for the spine she showed by correcting her mistake and finally getting the Blue. “I promise” is something you hear very rarely from my mouth, but if that happens, it’ll go like that. “I’ll try my best” is my way of making those “promises”.
As a side note, the kid and the mom wanting to go to zoo… As the kid’s mother I would’ve said “Fine. Your decision. Do we go now or when the weather is better?” and gone to the zoo if the kid so wants. And made sure I want to stay longer than the kid. Siberia teaches.
Roxy– Please tell me why you find the child abuse stories hard to believe. I just want to hear why you think it’s all bullshit.
I don’t find it hard to believe, but I have a pessimistic view of the world.
I know I am late in posting this, but I just had to speak up. I *do* believe her childhood stories. Why? Because I went through a lot of the same crap. I was locked in a dark closet with my two brothers (our dad took the light bulb out). We would spit in each others mouths when we got too thirsty and pee in my little brothers diaper when we had to go to the bathroom. We got smart enough to figure out how to break out, but then our dad bought a cattle prod to teach us not to even try. I could start a blog myself and write for years about everything that happened to us. I haven’t because apparently no one would believe me anyways and I would rather keep it buried than face yet another person thinking I made it all up. How could anyone believe that my well known and very much liked teacher parents could have done some of the vicious things they did? We were the perfect family. Of course our home life was full of unicorns farting rainbows and sparkles! If we lead anyone to believe differently, we would pay. When we would speak out, children’s services came out to “investigate” and always dropped the case. This shit *does* happen. You can’t make some of this stuff up.
Ok, I’ll guess Roxy has no valid reasons not to believe it, since she’s not responding.
r0w4n9, I’d believe you.
Thanks Al. You are the first person whom I didn’t have to pay to believe me.
