Happy barefoot anniversary to me!!!

Why does everyone think it's "hip" to be totally positive about people who are behaving totally unacceptably?

And the "well some people think hippies are unacceptable" argument doesn't fly, either. I'm talking about acceptable as dictated by logic/reason.

Silence doesn't fix anything, as I'm pretty sure the hippies knew and acted on. If there's a problem, it must be brought to light and repaired. Avoiding necessary conflict is not a good thing.

 

Why do I feel that, no matter what I say, you will come back with some smart arse comment! Bottom line is I do not have to justify anything to you.....I really am amazed at such anger which you show to people who, apparently, share the same lifestyle choice that you do. I never thought I would be having to justify myself on a forum like this, which should be used as a means of encouragement and not perverse anger directly internally at other members.
Any way, you win. I dont have the interest or time to continually having to explain or justify myself to you......

 

SM dont listen to Roo, he always wants an argument!!

 

We might share a lifestyle choice, but we sure as hell don't share the same lifestyle choice. This is the same pathetic argument others made for you, but no: I will not ignore your behavior at large because neither of us wear shoes. Even your reason for not wearing shoes, which seems, wholly, to be seen in pubic not wearing shoes, is pretty low, in my opinion.

You calling my anger at your behavior "perverse" is nonsensical. It is quite justified to be frustrated and angry that people do as you do, while knowing better, as I do know that you know, if you're telling the truth about your background.

And, as I said, simply sharing "encouragement" is one of the most silly things I've ever heard, there are easily as many things in life requiring a negative response, as a positive one. If one encounters someone who does many problematic, negative things, it is one's job to say so, or the silent individual becomes part of the problem. Some things should be encouraged, and some discouraged, and you have exemplified the aforementioned things requiring discouragement.

No, you don't have to justify anything to anyone, I highly doubt you're anything but an elaborate right wing troll's persona, from the nonsensical things you've said and sneaky ways you've associated good things with your bad behavior.

So basically: Waa, you should be positive and support whatever I feel like doing, no matter who all it effects!

 

*lol*

what i see is you're talking about your very personal obviously narrow minded view of the world and transpose it to a damnation of others who don't fit in. Sad.

You want others to act polite, but you don't.

For sure, no one needs to accept all shades of acting. But it's another thing to ask someone who is sitting with me in the doctors waiting room to put his/her dirty feet off the magazine table because i don't like to have the magazines dirty i'm going to read - or to blame someone in a public board in an insulting way who is open to tell about little cheeky things of daily life. But i doubt you understand the difference. Or like to understand.

If we would only act upon 'reason', we would all run around naked in summer, cause there is no reason to put something on as long it is warm enough and we don't need to run thrugh shrubbery ;-)

I'm not intersted in further discussion, as i think it's useless. So you can carry on to be the moral guardian without any hassle from my side.

Pretty sad how you got this thread poisened :-(

 

This shit's doing my head in! I'm off to the pub,still naked below the ankles anyone care to join me?

BTW Solemum 4 years barefoot is pretty impressive,even by Kiwi standards

 

Count Me In...:rockon::cheers2:



Cheers Glen.

 

Yep, I'll join you guys down the pub!! Have deliberately kept out of this. So much for the season of goodwill!! Live and let live I say. Apparently some don't agree:sad:

 

Was gonna leave this, but can't help myself!......Well said!!!!!!
I'm done too now

 

It's not cheeky to put your muddy feet on the magazines, it's aggressive, and paints a bad picture of all who don't wear shoes, in the minds of some. Bragging about this aggression makes it doubly bad.

Reason does not dictate nakedness, except in some situations. If that was the case, then we could read about OP wiping her ass on all the magazines, so everyone in the waiting room could be forced to see her pucker

I don't expect anyone to be polite. OP can swear all she has a mind to out of the hearing of small children, who then learn to basically be stupid, because swear words supplant most of the english language if you allow them to. I swear, but I'm not out of control about it around small children, and OP has bragged about how she IS. But it's a little beyond unpolite to be getting mud on other people's entertainment, which you did NOT pay for, while her children presumably rampaged around the waiting room, from what she's said of their behavior elsewhere.

Am I a moral guardian? In the sense of discouraging sex, drugs, barefootedness, that crazy big band music those kids are listening to, not showering, or whatever else floats your boat, no. In the sense of discouraging doing these things in a way that negatively reflects on the rest of us who might like similar activities, and thus causes more legal and practical hurdles for us, YES, I am.

 

the whole point is , some of us think it is a little bit harsh calling ppl trash.

 

I think if someone intentionally and knowingly behaves in such a way as to screw up kids, and is generally offensive and disagreeable in public, and paints poor pictures of all the positive, good things that I like to do, they're trash.

It's not wrong to call it like it is. If there's a problem, not saying something is NOT a good thing, it's simply dodging necessary conflict. If it needs to happen, it's wrong to ignore it. And this is a problem that reflects on all of us. I think "trash" is a nice way to put it, go read her other postings about her behavior and parenting, and how she rationalizes it ("liberal", etc).

 

«I» is the key word.

 

You cant judge people by a few words typed on a screen its just totally unfair!!!! Come on, we supposed to be all friends here on this forum. we are all so far away from each other anyway, so what if you disagree with someones actions - is it really affecting you? and does it really matter that much? really? you gots to chill, seriously!

and thats me done here...

 

Barefeet: Serious Bidness.

 

lol, aint that right shamone, eeeeee heeeee!

 

4 years barefoot...you must have thick skin on your soles

...now you just need toughen up the rest



if you dont like responses IGNORE THEM

 

I am intrigued to know why the thread leading on from Solemum's (politely) asking whether she is still welcome on this forum has been closed?? Does this imply she has been banned???

 

it was closed because the question has been answered..and it was not in line with what this forum is for

"Forum Description: Discuss the joys and travails of going barefoot"
