I ejaculate blood. Frequently; and quite fervently at that.

Jesus, I fucking love the feel you get when you're just making your way over a longterm writer's block, or any creative hump at that matter.

Today was a strange, depressing day. Not that that is particularly unusual; most days seem to have strange and/or depressing elements to them.
But, what stands out about this day was that I didn't post something I spent nearly a half-hour composing.
What happened?
Well, I read a post (or posts) in another thread that seemed to be crying out for a humorous answer. So, I went at it with vigor. I wrote several things in my response, and each item on my list was more amusing than the one before. I did a really good job, and found myself chuckling out loud. Had a real good one here. I continued refining my work.
Then, I hit the "Preview" button, which I always do before I post. You never know when you'll miss a typo, or want to re-word something.
But, as I read over what I had written, an odd feeling came over me. Something was really wrong here. I read over the post again. Absolutely no mistaking it: It was barely funny at all. In fact, it would probably make the person I was responding to feel very awkward - through absolutely no fault of theirs. I tried and tried to salvage something from this post. I figured there must be some way to make something light and amusing out of this. There wasn't. I would not have come off in a particularly good light (as I now realized), and I would have possibly offended someone who I have never had any friction with whatsoever.
So, I listened to my inner red flags and didn't post. I don't regret it.
Don't get me wrong, there was nothing in what I had written - either content or language - that would've gotten me suspended, or anything like that. It wasn't that kind of post.
But, for the first time, I had to slam on the brakes, sit, ponder and reassess my slightly skewed view of the world - and how close I came to, however inadvertantly, possibly hurting someone's feelings.
Guess I'm just gettin' old...

Shit, I do that almost every night! Can you imagine the posts I don't hit "Submit" with -- even after spending like 30 minutes on them, then saying nah?? 
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

DV, I've done that as well. Every now and then I'll think I have a good idea for a new topic, will type out a sometimes lengthy post and then I'll read it over and think it's not a good topic and delete it. At times too, when I re-read what I post, I'll edit or delete if I think something I wrote might be taken another way then what I meant.  As far as offending people, that's never my intention but there are some members here that I know I can joke with because I know them a little better. I might say something to them that I wouldn't to someone else. Know what I mean????  TIS

You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning. What's the old expression? It's got to be afternoon somewhere...

Why does everybody dream about Capo?
I've even had a dream about him before. So have I. They're called "nightmares".

I've even had a dream about him before. Because I bury myself deep in people's minds. Especially after seeing the video of you mounting your horse.
