Again, from my other blog:  www.integralmath.blogspot.com

 

I'd like to thank anonymous (not sure if it's "the" anonymous) for bringing to my attention a blog post I've somehow managed to either miss completely, or forget that I read. (Hey, drugs aren't great for the memory -mmkay?)  At any rate, the events in question here happened during a TAM event. Now, I know that the Nanny Ophelia & crowd are going to read this and think "Ha! Told you so!" but the story needs to be told. Anyway, this is a story involving a married couple in attendance at TAM; they go on to explain how the lady (the wife) was being the target of "an unusual number of unwanted sexual advances . . ."

Of course, the peculiar part of the story is that the unwanted sexual advances were coming from women to a married woman.  And, oh, yeah, one other small detail:  towards the husband too. Also by women.

 

I guess there are some issues with unwanted come-ons and cheap propositions happening at atheist conventions. So, ladies, knock it off - would ya?!

 

Here's their whole story; I recommend reading it.

First time I've ever heard of that happening. Interesting.

That's it! The wife and I are going next year!

Steph S., one of the reasons, no doubt, is that most people when invited to have sex don't manage to escape the harrowing exchange of words, make a beeline to their hotel rooms and phone the police make a youtube video to tell the whole world they were just potentially invited on a date.

 

That's just my guess though.

 

Oh, Brian George, I'll bring some of my girlfriends and keep an eye out for you two!

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 7 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
