'Wanton disregard' is that as bad as burying 13 bodies in the cellar like Kathy does?
Moni
Shush!  They only know about the first 10.

I never take myself seriously, but my style of humor is too edgy and autistic to be appreciated.

Moni

Short answer... No, ...not AS bad... But wanton disregard is one of the gateways through which one passes before they end up with 13 bodies buried in the cellar... A fact to which I am sure Kathy can attest!!!....My hope for you Moni is that you can turn things around before it gets to that point!!!! ... I will be sending good thoughts!!!

Onward we go!!!

 It's Moni's (as in Mahony or sony) fault. All her fault! She did it. Do you see how this serious subject has just gone downhill from its inception?

  As for my serious lol answer; I find that I abhor humor especially when I'm being serious(almost never). It is so annoying  trying to get my point across when I can only visualize Moni ducking for cover upon seeing me walk into her recovery room. I mean hey, I don't want to see her tear a stitch or anything. I don't want her to hurt herself at all.  I mean where's the fun in that?
  But seriously Moni, I am going to hunt you down. Bet on it, girl.
  But even more seriously I fear that I am one of those insensitive people incapable of seeing the harm my intended humor may be causing until it's too late.  As Eric Burdon put it, "I'm just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord! please don't let me be misunderstood"
  I hate it when that happens,

Hugs,

Oh, one other question for this thread. DOES anyone really get annoyed by the humor on this site? Randy?
Moni

My theoretically humorous comment was such dry humor that everyone was afraid to talk about it. Thank you Moni for allowing me the opportunity to straighten you all out. This is where the lack of body language does me in.

I really appreciate humor, even when poorly applied or lame. While I agree that there are some topics that don't play well with humor, much of the time it helps us lighten up and sometimes even lets us see another aspect of the situation.

Seriously, as always, Randy

Some things are serious and should be dealt with understanding and compassion, other things are serious but can be dealt with laughter and friendly banter. The important thing is that we are working together as a community, there is a time and place for everything, especially fart jokes  ;D

Peace and love and all that good stuff,

Spot on moni life is bloody hard enough add on top transitioning it can become unbearable at times, no doubt there's one or two on the forums who would rather we dispense with all this school kid humour.
Well tuff if won't for a little silliness I would of been in a wooden box by now my life is on a knife edge at the moment so I look forward to moni's , Laurie's & davnia's bitching, yes the point of these forum is too post life changing problems that we can help or have a point of view on but I do think sometimes we all do take ourselves too seriously me being one of them.

Thanks so much for the vote of confidence my friend!... I don't think I have completed anything though, for life is an ever unfolding journey. In the words of Robert Earl Keen... The Road Goes On Forever And The Party Never Ends

I am honored to be sharing the road with you Sinclair and everyone here!!!  Be at least a little silly everyday, find happiness and peace within... All will be well :)

Onward we go!!!

   First of all, I hope I didn't scare poor Paula Lesley away. I was only kidding. I suspect one day our countries  will stop this war and we will become friends with the British. Cheerio's! (Not my favorite cereal but they seem to love to talk about it a lot over there) Pip pip!
   Now, I would like to explain why I was worried about the humor. I chat with Laurie a lot and it kind of goes like this. She says something outrageous about my name while in some sort of ritualistic cookie stupor that she is usually in. Me, being hiely intellergint, offer soothing words of comfort in return. She then rants bout somethin else. Somewhere a hairless Chihuahua gets into the picture and, well, you get the idea. In my head, I am picturin all the wonderful trans folk on here saying, "Oh my Gosh, can't that Laurie leave that  poor innocent, nice, young, defenseless, youngMoni alone? Right? (Denni I brought it up before you did. Please someone ask her about her golf game!) Anyway!
   Ashley, TGirl as you can plainly see I am too far gone, save yourself! I have wanton disregard for my wanton disregard.
   Farts are awesome except if I am to be the stereotype female I am aiming to be I am doomed to never fart again.
   Sara, I think of my humor as preschool, thank you. I love you girl but that wooden box crack is kinda dark there girl. :) Hugs
   FTM, you had to pull the 'Trump' card, didn't you?
   Thank you all for helping keep my sanity. Laurie, en, en en!

Humor helps me cope. After all I spent 64 years in my alter ego as a man.  Unfortunately most my humor is meant for truck drivers and Sailors. How low can I go? You don't want to know.

OK, everyone stand forewarned about the hairless Chihuahua. I was trying to keep that hairless animal of prey leashed and out of sight but no Moni had to open up that big bag of woofs and unleash it to prey on everyone. You may want to stop reading and never enter this thread again because you will never, ever, be able to look at that breed of dog again, you are forever cursed. Every time you see one your thoughts will immediately come back to this posting, so you are warned!

A few weeks back Moni mentioned to me that after her latest hair removal treatment that a certain part of her anatomy resembled a hairless Chihuahua. For the strangest reason it immediately filled me with dread and dark thoughts. That afternoon I was playing in a golf tournament and wouldn't you know it, there lurking in the background of the green I swore I seen a hairless Chihuahua, really, I swear on Moni's anatomy. Well needless to say my putting for the remainder of the day was terrible. Golfers always say that you get the yip's, I have a new name for it, the woof's

So Laurie, and anyone else, be on the lookout for her dog Clyde when visiting, if she starts to look around and starts, to whistle, run, and run as fast as you can, for it is truly a fearsome animal of prey. So Bonny, I mean Moni, oh my gosh that's it, isn't it, they have been reincarnated as Moni and her dog Clyde.

P.S. I take no responsibility for anything in this post, your golf game, or the impending case of the woof's

Ai Carrumba!  Take it back, take it back!!  I'll be seeing Moni everywhere!!

Denni,
  First of all, thanks Denni, this is the closest thing to me ever seeing Laurie speechless.
  Now,I had to get you to do it, Hon. You are the best kept secret on Susan's. Everyone should know how awesome you are even if I had to shove my anatomy out  there to do it. I love the Moni and Clyde concept. Unfortunately, there is no one waiting in the wings to adopt Clyde so he will soon be put down. I still think it was a little convenient as a reason for the terrible putting. (Or do we call it 'mutting' now?)
Moni
In order to be truthful here, there was never a 'big' bag of 'woofs.'
If I ever offend you, let me know. It's not what I am about.
