Have him on with Deuce, Deuce's Wife and Spooky.

Get them all out of the way at one time..

Wow. Massive train wreck. High potential for awesome..........and violence.

Chris knew about this. That's my take on it any way.

Anyone else get that vibe?

What's the difference in a psychic lying on your show and a comedian? You got had, suck it up and stop crying about it (it was fucking funny).

Yesterdays show was the best yet.

That's two completely different circumstances. Robert Alvarez is on the show to do what he does, if you believe in psychics then you aren't getting cheated and if you don't believe it.. you aren't getting cheated. You know from the get go what he does and how he does it.

Danny is shady, he's not coming on the show as a prankster that's always pulling pranks, he's on there as a comedian and radio host. Him fucking with Keith and Chemda also fucks with the fans. It makes for great episodes but it's extremely disrespectful.

Chemda touched on something I've been struggling with lately. We both grew up in--albeit different--traditional cultures. Women at my home church are still not allowed to voice opinions or vote on church matters; only the husbands and single men. Girls are to be pleasant, polite, and accomodating. Always. Do what's asked of you with a smile and a second helping.

I've dumped, reconciled, accepted, or owned most of the stuff that stuck into adulthood like anybody else; but for the life of me I cannot shake the guilt of saying 'no' and it's starting to be problematic. It's an overinflated sense of obligation to anyone and everyone. I don't know why I owe the world, but the fact remains if someone comes to me with a need, request, or offer it's immediately greater than anything I have going on. I've been seeing a lot of selfishness and resentment in my actions as of late and I think it's sprung from this overwhelming anxiety.

I lack the words and the worth to feel OK declining or stopping things. How do you get there?



(edit: and i still think Danny Lobell is a douche.)

Furthermore, I now suspect Danny as the breaker of the champagne glass and the beer stein and the spiller and creator of the juicy pillow.

He can't be trusted.

How is the listener being "cheated", what are you losing? Danny is a comedian (and it's pretty clear at this point a "prankster") and you are being served with a bit, if you fell for it then he has done his job. It's entertainment and (like Robert Alvarez) He is an entertainer, being shocked by a harmless (and yes it was harmless, no one was hurt) stunt pulled by a comedian is just as naive as falling for one Robert's "readings". In fact if people are so sensitive to being tricked then why is no one mad that KATG are in on the psychic bit? That can actually cheat someone (who is not in on it) out of something substantial.

[Junkenstein]

There's a basic guilt that's usually engraved in the heads of some kids when they're young, that makes them feel bad when they refuse something, or always be careful with their words to avoid hurting people's feelings.

I used to be like that. Myt mother was a scared woman who, thanks to being married with an animal who loved to scream at her 24 hours a day, always said yes. She thought that saying "no" to people, refusing favours or criticizing them would be "rude" and make her look bad. So in a way, her way to think got on me. Also probably because my father was a mean, angry man who loved to insult people and was mpore of a guy that leeched favour instead of giving them. The shame of having to deal with that got to me also.

So i always said yes. Then i realized that in 99% of the cases, people are sucking the life out of you. If you always say yes,and you're always kind, dont want to interfere with others or dont want to look nagging, others will exploit you. That's how people are. 98 out 100 are leeching cunts who will do everything they can to exploit niceness.

With that in mind, it's easier to say no. You got to struggle to pick out people who deserve your kindness out of the bunch, and if it's in your nature to be available and approachable, you'll hardly change that. But keeping in mind that most people deserve a no and are there to use you, helps a lot.

That said, i love you sparrow.

I wonder if he's also the one sending stuff to Keith's parents and fucking with the reporter. You know, the "shit disturber." I wouldn't put it past him to think that shit's funny in his head; it's certainly not funny to me.

Yeah, get an octogon and you've got the best Keith and the Girl TV yet!

Can there be a pre-emptive winner for Best Fight for 2010 KATGuh Awards?
