What are the rules around that?
The whole Hollywood and supermodel thing is so over-rated these days and I’ve listened very carefully to interviews with Dame Joan Collins (Alexis from Dynasty - I’m a huge fan) and a lot of what Joan says makes a lot of sense to me
Nothing I see online surprises me any more - but sometimes, at the same time, some things online do manage to make even me cringe - some friends have told me about certain stuff as I’m no stranger to gay porn or “blue movies” but even the things I have seen these days are total cringe
In other words, keeping it classy
I’m grateful for having lived through the 70’s and 80’s in Rural Ireland and under traditional Catholic Social Teaching with “Faith and Morals” being the most cherished and important thing, despite being raised in Vatican II - having lived 22 years in the U.K. and seeing how modern Ireland has totally collapsed morally long after I came out as gay as an older gay man, those Catholic values I’ve learned have enabled me to navigate the crazy world we live in now and to retain my sanity - I never really appreciated the true value of my background until after the first 10 years of my living in the U.K. and coming home to Ireland on visits, which allowed me to see things much more clearly and prepared me for the emotional roller coaster of Covid, now I’m firmly in the camp of traditional values and my traditional Catholic faith is stronger than ever - I found my transition from Vatican II back to the traditional Catholic faith so much of a homecoming with the Mass in Latin and a very easy transition, far more so than cutting all ties with and support for the gay community and in many respects, despite all the craziness of the modern world, I’m very much at peace with my return to my Catholic roots and the Catholic faith
This reminds me of an aspect of traditional Catholic Social Teaching on this topic growing up in Rural Ireland in the 70’s and 80’s was that especially if someone had any sort of health condition or disability (including mental health) that it was deemed best to stay away from anything that strayed away from Traditional Catholic “Faith and Morals” which was deemed as inappropriate and which would earn you a good hard “clip across the ear” from the Nuns along with a firm command to “cop yourself on” and further enforced by the teachers, headmaster, local police and local Parish Priest, to which you would be dragged up to the priests house “by the scruff of the neck” to recieve a stern talking to - looking at modern society today and looking back then, we need to return to those times as after many decades they have been proven correct as it would prevent so many social problems that we have today
In a world where by reason of our autism we are judged as being “wrong” by default in terms of everything we say, do, be and act, where we are deemed as “not understanding that we are wrong” perhaps it is a case of us having to prove that this is not the case, by presenting ourselves in such a way that shows us in a good light, showing ourselves as being capable of being intelligent, classy and polished?
Smithers, is that you?
I drove from Winchester to Birmingham once without thinking and I "came to" just as I was leaving the M40 for the M42 with no recollection of the journey, whatsoever.
I blame Peter. It was probably his picture of him and his supermodel that did it! :-)
hee hee. He said "bum"
I see your tit (not literally) and raise you a bum...
not even, not ever. Try a sock. Not funny.
hee hee. He said "tit".
oh wow so its now not ok to twist things and take things out of context?but its ok when YOU do it? maybe i only do it just to show you what its like when someone does it to you lot? or to make you take this response which then defends me on this thread here as your now against taking things out of context so now your against yourself in this thread as you took things out of context with intent to attack me here... reflect on this...
do you understand cause and effect?because if you do you know you caused this effect lolbut ofcourse the people that do a bad thing then get a bad effect in return are too ignorant and unable to self reflect on their actions so i will do you a favour..1) i replied to a forum post2) you and a weirdo went out of your way to decide to take offence at my post that you wasnt even included in, you chose to go out of your way to interact with me when you could have simply ignored me, then you attacked me and purposely took my comment for that which you know it wasnt.bonus round: that other guy turned out to be some sort of creep who sees sexual activity in everything, but yet thats ok and not suspicious?
you reported yourself? im questioning you on your brain here mate.... why did you see sexual assault in my joke when sexual assault wasnt in it? .... [edited by moderator]
I do a wall of text, you find a Simpsons link that explains much better...
