       Jed... for nice guys

       For those members who are nice and care about what others think.
       Pasted from a previous response.
       NICE = BORING. You still give a s h i t about what people think
       about you? Where in God's name did you come up with that? THEY
       DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT YOU. They are only recycling their
       boring patterns of behavior back to you, and you think it's
       real.........
       MY GOD MAN, I know you can't be that stupid. STOP and think
       about what you are valuing here. It's garbage, just data,
       meaningless data, a tape recording of their personal pains and
       insecurities. There isn't one person in a hundred thousand that
       can offer you anything of value. They just don't have it so for
       heaven's sake stop listening to them. You are looking for your
       keys where the light is, not where you dropped them.
       You are misdirecting your thoughts and energy. You may want to
       pretend you are listening, which is what you already do because
       you are busy worrying about what they think about you, just to
       keep the conversation going, but never, ever believe them. THEY
       DON'T HAVE A CLUE! (Your new mantra, repeat as often as possible
       from now own. THEY DON'T HAVE A CLUE! or 'LOVE YOU YOU BUT...NOT
       A CLUE!
       You are the key to you and only you know the answers. All I can
       do is point, sometimes at the goal, sometimes at the idiocy
       that's blocking the view. Guess which 'pointing' this one is.
       Love ya, and thanks for putting up with me. Jed. (indelicate but
       well meaning)

       OK, Rant, and you 'asked' for it...
       Jed. Jed! Jed!! Jed!!!! GIVE ME A BASEBALL BAT!
       WTF??????? What is happening here? Half asleep people making
       half arsed movements towards whatEVER, and you are dancing along
       with it?? Fun? Sure, ya wanna this to last till your retirement
       age and beyond? It WILL, there'll be no shortage of fresh blood
       in search for the Holy Grail anyway.. so what the hell? MURDER
       them, directly, DIRECTLY, face to face, no pleasantries, no
       apologies in the form of 'thanks for putting up with me'(??), no
       nodding thoughtfully to the bullshit they shower you with... I
       can nearly HEAR that 'soon to be' long flowing Guru beard making
       its way out of your chin.. and the halo for good measure.
       EVERYONE has a breaking point, go for the kill, bulls eye, blood
       and broken bones, hearts, jaws and god knows what else. People
       are here out of their own will. They can take it, or phuck off
       (they won't, or some will, big deal!).
       YOU..................... are too NICE, damn it! Patient, third
       chances, it's  a Show, yes, but fuck it!! make it a spectacular
       one, you know how, so??? What's stopping you?

       YES, YES.. thank you for your encouragement. I have been far too
       nice for far too long and I sick and tired of being such a nice
       guy. Now I really have my nickers in a knot and someone is going
       to get my wrath... ooooooh... i'm felling it.... getting my mojo
       back big time. Look out illusionary world. Up our nose with a
       rubber hose.
       Phew, I'm feeling better already. Now, just need a target for my
       vexation.
       Love ya, Jed... wait... not sure I love yah... just 'Jed'.
       This must be what Spiderman felt like after that first bite or
       Dracula after his first bite.

       I guess that I should step up to the plate here and have it
       known that it was in replying to issues raised by me that seems
       to have caused such irritation and launched the howls of
       derision.
       New to SA, Jed’s books I have been digging and searching and
       screibbling quite furiously in the last 2 weeks or so.  This
       ‘being nice’ thing seemed to be quit prevalent. This is an open
       forum we call all see all posts if we wish and so for me the
       being nice thing was both a discovery and offering it up there
       was saying:
       “look I’ve just noticed that I’m uncertain, boring and vain.
       Prone to bouts of dishonesty and weakness and, … and it sucks.
       Oh and I’m telling you lot about it.”
       Not trying to hide it. This is one of the things I found – get
       it out in the open.
       It is the mark of the ‘nice guy’  that he tries to get people to
       be nice to him. That’s the koan which arisies in this daily
       life. Seems like it worked – for a while at least.
       Look I’m sorry if this has upset the apple cart – well least I
       would have been until that is, after a bit of further digging in
       the last couple of days showed that opinons about things
       including ‘others’ are the stuff of fantasy – they are not true.
       Your post yesterday just made me smile ‘cos a few weeks ago I’d
       have been hurt by it – this time it was a real good slap in the
       face and just what I needed and could see that - almost kind of
       funny.
       Talking about the boring ‘yous’ well if 'you' bore me, then I'm
       the one with the problem, your'e fine. If 'you' interest me,
       then you have something I want; whether I get it or not, your'e
       fine. Bored or interested, its all about me, the yous out there
       are fine regardless who finds you boring or not - unless of
       course the you’s are bored as well. If one is bored then wer'e
       all bored.
       Best, John

       Ahahahahahaaa!! 'getting my mojo back big time'..... can't stop
       laughing here, you are funny to boot!!
       They say in England 'Don't get your knickers in a twist.'
       Look, dropping 'I love ya' and replacing it with 'Jed' works for
       me. Kinda more true.. oh wait, not true either!! Darn!! Nothing
       is true here.. or is it?? Now I'm confused, but not withdrawing
       my love :P
       You remind me - of me. Slip through the fingers and Poof! Gone.
       Like hmmm... pause for thought.. wait!!! Can't think either! not
       allowed, not allowed, not allowed, not. allow... ed, not. all
       ................ yeeaaah, that's better. Cheers, nurse.
       Nevertheless.. consider it. You said yourself 'slice through the
       knot'.
       Thanks for the laugh, Jed Houdini:)
       @J Nothing's upset the apple cart, you have no 'shoulds' to step
       up to anything, and 'derision' is not what is. Relax!!

       why don't you two guys play good cop - bad cop ? for us
       frightened silly prisoners ?
       have a rant, throw your wrath and then stick on the 'love you
       Jed' ?
       Have fun!
       But you know uncle Jed, it's your desinterest in my fate which
       leaves me all alone at sea
       it's at this point my english has a nervous breakdown.
       thank you and much  love

       I feel discriminated....... What about Ms. Nice? I'm wearing a
       dress. Looked between the legs, twice, to make sure, no suit to
       be found.....
       Sorry about that...... I'd better go and lurk at 'mister ****,
       i'm so afraid that's why i swing a slegdehammer at others
       instead of keeping it to myself', i know where he is coming
       from....
       I guess, i'm not Ms. Nice  .
       May be Ms. Nice's don't exist. That's not nice, another illusion
       flying away from my crabbing fingers
       Please help me?
       On second thought, please don't..... I'm just a girl, you know
       them....

       This is pretty relevant to me. I'm sick of being a nice guy.
       There's nothing nice about me. I pretend to be nice because I'm
       scared of upsetting other people. Being nice is nothing more
       than a more childish, frightened form of self interest.
       I see this, but for some reason it hasn't seemed to break the
       pattern just yet.
       Have a nice day everyone   ;)
