'Ask Buddy' Installment Number 19

 

 

Dear Buddy,

I am confident that you can help me with a very vexing issue.
 Here, I'll start at the beginning. My 21 month old Border Collie, 'Bella' has for some reason known only to her, has arbitrarily decided that she wants to sleep downstairs now instead of in her crate upstairs where she has slept every night since she was 9 weeks old. I mean, what's with that?? Our other BC, 'Buddyboy' 14 years old, also slept upstairs until 'he' decided that the stairs were not worth tackling anymore, and so he now sleeps downstairs. I feel abandoned and un-needed now but I refuse to sleep downstairs just because they have decided to. Did I mention that I just spent a small fortune for a brand new soft sided crate for her? Grrr!

What should I do now Buddy? I've tried talking to her about this but to no avail.

'Feeling flustered in the Alleghanies'

 

Dear 'Flustered'

Relax, take a deep breathe, life is short, otherwise you'll just die tired, and thank your lucky stars you have only 'two' Border Collies!

Few realize it but when it comes to BC's, there's a particular method to their madness, and the sooner you are in touch with that fact, the sooner you will find the inner peace you seek.

'Bella' has simply decided that this phase of 'your' training has successfully been completed, and it is time for you to gradually move into 'your' new training regimen. You see, she has, since she was 9 weeks old, allowed 'you' to imagine that 'you' were training 'her', when all along 'she' was training 'you' to let 'her' do what 'she' wanted to do all along. And now that she is 'older' and more independent, she has decided that enough, is enough of this time consuming coddling of you in your continuing infancy, and time for 'you' to learn 'new tricks'. You must quickly get over this moment and move on with life as she dictates. You don't want to step on a 'doggie mine' in the middle of the night do you? Do you?? Of course not! Simply go along with her decision as if it were your own. Humor her, praise her for her great decision making skills, ask her to teach you a new board game such as checkers or chess, and give her lots of those, 'good girl, good girl' praises that she looks for. It's ok for you to 'pretend' that 'you' are in charge, she expects that, but always know that you are just along for the ride, 'she' is the 'driver' and you, simply a willing passenger.

Relax, and enjoy the 'ride'. Peace!  ;)  ;)

Dear Buddy,
I've been reading your so-called 'Advice Column ' hoping that some day I'd read something that would enlighten my otherwise drab world. But, so far, not much. Which makes me wonder....do you have to have a college degree to be a 'self helper' or whatever? I thought about doing it myself, but like you, would anyone believe anything I say? Would it be fair to assume that you make up a lot of the so called requests for 'advice'? I read the one where the woman who took your 'advice' is now on the run from the law, could that happen to 'me'? Are you 'for real'? I think one of us is nutty as a Christmas fruit cake, is it you or is it just me?

Hi Buddy!
Remember when I wrote to you asking for advice? I'm the woman whose husband I 'thought' was running around with wild women, and just like a man, was constantly denying it. Of course it later turned out that he actually wasn't. But in the meantime I told you what I suspected, and you told me to "clean out the checking account and book a 'singles' cruise". Well, I did what you 'advised' me to do. And now I'm 'wanted' in three states for forgery, bank fraud, theft, and income tax evasion. What the hell buddy! I'm living under an assumed name which I can't even spell, dyed my hair, the color of which I hate, I'm living under a rock practically, and all because I listed to your stupid advice!
What should I do now?? What Buddy, what!?

Dear 'Wanted',

Dear Buddy,
It takes a lot to stump me but as luck would have it there's a few things that do. The other day A few friends were talking about snakes, and one mentioned that people actually 'milk' snakes for their venom. WTH is 'that' all about Buddy!? I mean, I don't claim to be a damn snake expert, but, do snakes really have titties??? Where do they even keep them?? Wouldn't it be like slithering around on a bunch of speedbumps? Wouldn't their 'milk' be poison in the first place? Is this just 'udderly' crazy, or is it just me!?

Dear 'Stumped',
Yes, "udderly", and yes, 'you'.

"Immunity Passports". Really!??

"Immunity Passports". Really?? This is akin to giving a 'hall pass' to a 'serial killer' just because he hasn't killed anyone since 'yesterday'!
This "Immunity Passport" idea is about as dumb as anything can possibly be, it simply proves that there may be a cure someday for this killer virus, but there will never be a 'cure' for stupidity. We cannot 'ignore' the Covid-19 pandemic away, and a "passport" will not make American's safe in any form or fashion! :/

Hannity, trumps 'Middle Finger Puppet'

Hannity is simply a 'Middle Finger Hand Puppet' of trump, 'The Manipulator', and he knows that by saying, "Let me get this straight," "He’s constantly being tested for cognitive abilities? Why is Joe Biden getting constantly tested for a cognitive decline? After hearing that, I’m wondering if maybe all Americans need cognitive testing regularly. That concerns me," "Does that concern the American people? Are they going to ask the ever-forgetful, weak Joe Biden why he’s being constantly tested for cognitive decline?", and, if he spurts it often enough, his and trumps followers will start saying and believing it as well. Nothing like programming your cult followers to mimic everything you say.
"He’s constantly being tested for cognitive abilities?" Perhaps Biden meant he is constantly being 'tested' by people like Hannity and trump.
No matter what, it's a given that if there's a conspiracy theory to be spread, trump and Hannity are the 'go to' minions to get it done. :/

"Nobody briefed or told me", Really.

'Of course, as we all 'know', and I'll just keep saying it until the 'truth' actually comes out, "Nobody briefed or told me, @VP Pence, or Chief of Staff @MarkMeadows about the so-called attacks on our troops in Afghanistan by Russians," really, I'm not kidding! Remember when I said that, "I try to be truthful when I can"? Trust me on this one folks, I'm pretty sure that I'm telling the 'truth', as I know it, this time. Sure, there's been one or two times in the last four years where I've had to lie, mostly in the name of 'national security' of course, but those don't really count, do they? This time though, it's different! 'Really' different.
"Everybody denying it"!  'Everybody, I tell you, "everybody"! My BFF Vlad, 'The Nation Builder', great family guy, loved by all his subjects, tells me that it's all one big "hoax", nothing to worry about. I gotta believe him! He's never lied to me, much, before. Really. If he say's it ain't so, then that's good enough for me. And there's other 'everybody's' too. VP pence say's it's a lie. Barr say's it's a lie. McConnell say's it's a lie. Every Republican say's so. All my cult followers say so, and boy do they ever know a lie when they hear one! And, lets see now, there's Jarrod, my hottie wife, my whole family actually, well, except for my niece that's trying to ruin me with her lying book. See ya in court, blabber mouth!
Anyway, I didn't ever know about this bounty thing. Why didn't someone tell me!??? How could I 'possibly' not ever know about this? I mean how?? I'm the 'president, right!? Shouldn't I be aware of these things? Isn't that my sworn duty as 'president'? Can you believe it? Of all the people to not know of something as serious as this! I'm the 'last' to know. What are the chances of that? I mean, really!? Unbelievable! I bet every American is just as 'surprised' as I, myself am. Right? Right?'  :/

'Commander-In-Complicity'

While the incompetent trump, America's disgusting 'Wanna-be Dictator', was busy blindly courting, and totally sucking up to his longtime BFF-FWB, Putin, the 'Nation Builder', and extolling his bunk buddies virtues, Putin, like the brutal dictator he surely is, was busy murdering American and coalition troops.
Upon learning of this egregious treachery, a 'real' President, and Commander-In-Chief of The United States of America, would renounce, and retaliate against Putin. However, do not expect such from trump, the 'Boy-King', who instead will proclaim that his BFF would never do such an unthinkable act, and that the lying media has simply created yet another "hoax" in attempts at making them both, look bad, as if they could possibly look any worse than they constantly make themselves. :/

"Frankly, I didn't understand what they were thinking"

Devoted trump, 'The incompetent', minions, and 'middle finger puppets', Cruz and Cornyn, momentarily pulled their saw dust filled heads from their puppet masters arse, and proudly exclaimed in unison, "Frankly, I didn't understand what they were thinking", referring to their masters decision to pull federal funds from the coronavirus program, money so desperately needed in the fight against that nasty virus that's trying to kill Americans left and right.
Then after gasping from the effects of fresh air and a single lucid thought, their puppet master pulled their strings and up and away they went back into the bowels of the beast. And then all was quiet, they had done their job, and the Republicans in Texass went 'Yi-Haaa!', Clap, clap, clap. ;)

Hashim is not all that bad! He's done great things, things we've never heard of, for his subjects, sure he may have found it necessary to murder a few detractors here and there, mostly in Serbia, but hey, who hasn't, right? After all, great 'leaders' sometimes must be ruthless murders but that doesn't make them all 'bad', they're actually "really good people", as far as I know. Right?' ;)

And 'now', what she 'really' meant with her 'apology'

And 'now', what she 'really' meant with her 'apology'

'Yeah, like, when I said, “I will teach my grandkids to hate you all,” I didn't mean 'everyone'. I mean, 'everyone'? Really? I mean who does that? Besides, I've already fried their little brains, and now they are card carrying little Klan Kiddie members. And no, I don't 'really' subscribe to the "KKK" doctrine. I mean, I don't even hardly know what those three letters "KKK" stand for. Some sort of 'social' club, right?
Just let me say that this whole thing got blowed right out proportion. The media made a big deal out of a small incident by misconstruing my words. They shouldn't be allowed to put 'words' in my 'innocent' mouth!
Oh, and another thing, "I was chanting Black Lives Matter… and that’s not even on video,” “It’s like I blacked out. I don’t even remember.”   Really! I was! Honest! Just watch the video! You'll 'see' what I was 'really' doing! I mean, hey, I support 'those' kind of people, but mostly good, upstanding white people. I sure wish I hadn't, sorta, "blacked out" there, so I could "remember" stuff that happened when those coloured people practically attacked me, forcing me to verbally defend myself. “I mean, if it would help for me to stand with Black Lives Matter, I absolutely would do that.” Really.
Anyway, just wanted to say "sorry". My big fat mouth always the rest of me in deep shit, you know, like right now.
"Again I am so so sorry because that is not who I am. I would never ever want to see anyone hurt and I don’t care who they are.” Yeah, I'd probably just look the other way if some of them was getting "hurt". "I would never want to see.." that.
So there! I sure feel better now that I have "learned a lesson" from this. Probably wear a full face mask next time.
Well gotta run. Gotta 'social club' meeting I must attend, gotta iron some 'sheets' first. Bye, bye  ya'll!' ;)


Missouri woman who shouted ‘KKK belief’ at BLM protest apologizes: ‘I don’t represent hate’

News

 Posted: Jun 25, 2020 / 04:17 AM EDT / Updated: Jun 25, 2020 / 09:48 AM EDT

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (KOLR) – A Missouri woman is apologizing for the “ugly” things she said in a now-viral video recorded at a local Black Lives Matter protest.
The video, which surfaced on Monday, isn’t long. It only runs about 35 seconds. In it, Kathy Jenkins sits and later stands on the bed of a pickup truck while holding and dancing with a Confederate flag.
“I will teach my grandkids to hate you all,” she says to someone off camera. She later raises her fist and declares “KKK belief.”
Since the video surfaced, Kathy says she’s been locked out of Facebook and fired from her job (a punishment she says she deserved). She says she’s been the target of a few threats and she says even her friends are being threatened.
When she called sister station KOLR, she wouldn’t even say where she was calling from; only specifying that she has left Branson, her home of six years.
The call was a response to what she describes as a misunderstood portion of her day that was caught on video.
“I was chanting Black Lives Matter… and that’s not even on video,” she said on Wednesday. “It’s like I blacked out. I don’t even remember.”
Jenkins said she was only there in the parking lot of Dixie Outfitters to observe the nearby Black Lives Matter protest.
“I’ve never been to one,” she said. “I just wanted to see what the rally was all about.”
She said while watching from the other side of the street someone handed her a Confederate flag. She claims she didn’t fully know what it represented but assumed it was a symbol of unity. She also said she was in the bed of a truck belonging to someone she didn’t know.
Later, when people from the other side of the street approached her, she says she lost her temper.
“I hadn’t said anything until they came into my face … it’s like I blacked out. I don’t even remember saying half the stuff that I said.”
As for the part about holding the same beliefs as the Ku Klux Klan, she said she was mocking the people who approached her.
“I wasn’t saying I’m KKK or for the KKK. I was mocking them because I don’t like being called a racist,” she said.
Now she’s apologizing.
Along with vowing to never hold another Confederate flag, Jenkins is offering both lamentations and her time to the people she offended.
“I’m so, so sorry,” she said Wednesday. “I mean, if it would help for me to stand with Black Lives Matter, I absolutely would do that.”
Below you can read a full apology written by Kathy Jenkins:
"As many of you know I am Kathy. I just wanted to start with saying that I am truly deeply sorry for what I said. This isn’t who I am as a person. I obviously cannot take back what I said. I can only learn from this. I want to make it clear. I am not teaching my children or grandchildren to hate anyone. No one. Ever. I’ve always taught them to respect and love anyone no matter the race. I’ve always taught them to treat people with the same respect as they would want to be treated. My words and actions have been a learning experience. Not only did I learn from this, but I hope this message helps others that they cannot take back what they have said. Again I am so so sorry because that is not who I am. I would never ever want to see anyone hurt and I don’t care who they are.”
--Kathy Jenkins

"You ain't seen nothing yet".

The 'Boy-Kings' only 'loyalty' is to his own personal 'brand', and he does not subscribe to the notion that 'blood is thicker than family'. He will not hesitate to 'destroy' even a close relative if it means preventing the world from knowing what he is really like, as if we can't see that already.
Mary Trump will no doubt publish her tell-all book regardless of the threats from her incompetent, bully uncle. Then the world will see just how vicious he can be, even with his own relatives.
 The only difference between trump, 'The Wanna-be Dictator', and his BFF- FWB dictator of N. Korea, is that trump can't line his relatives, and other enemies, against a wall in front of a firing squad. Yet. But he 'can' try to 'tweet' them to death. Stay tuned, as he once proudly proclaimed, "you ain't seen nothing yet". :/
