Now not so secret.

I don't see any money from the conventions. And either I have to use vacation time or steal from your money stash to pay for childcare, cuz you sure don't make any effort to present the money beforehand. And I have to call her to see if she'll even watch our daughter, as you conveniently manage to never do it, even when I do give you the number beforehand. And I have to put up with your stupid pre-con panics. Every con. Year after year. For over a decade. For some reason your deadlines are supposed to matter to me, even though I never see anything from them. And you completely refuse to learn even the most basic computer shit. Or auto mechanics. Then harass the hell out of everyone around you to do it all for free. Or threaten to charge it to your card, as a blackmail attempt to get me to do it.

I'm sick of the blackmail. I'm sick of the damned prima donna show con after con, year after year. I don't like the way you order all of us around. Just what chores to you do around the house, besides pretend to watch Marguerite? And some dishes? You certainly don't pay any bills.

Every con, the same threats, the same theatrics. And every year before Estrella, the exact same threat. Every year.

Stop it.


Archived here for her pleasure, pulled from the journal of Rebekah herself. To be fair, few marriages of twelve years are without their issues, but god damn if furries can't restrain themselves from making a public circus of it. The comments are particularly pathetic furry sentiments (BLARGH I AM A DRAGON). The digital marital Wal-Mart slapfest.

And all this in public? Wow.

Way to go with the threat to go buy the most expensive computer you can find to get back at me. Yeah, that works.

Typical.

BTW, anyone notice that Groat and Rebekah are not listed as mutual friends on LJ? It might not have anything to do with anything, I just thought it was interesting.

Sounds about right, preconvenion chaos, and general screwing around by Groat. That's not supprising at all what with FurtherConfusion 10 days from now. Yea I'll be going, but unless Jim has nothing else to bitch about like "losing money, lack of employmnt, etc." We won't hear any stories of marital strife and other such mundane concerns.
Oh in case your wondering Jim always has the same stuff for sale in the artshows, same old jokes I've seen them a million times before, and usualy no bids on anything simply becuase he overprices on minimum bids.

I have met the Groat children and I must say they are the best anti-furry RL-trolls I have ever met. It is my aspiration to reach their height of complete assholery and unsupervised asshattery. Well, not really.

Seriously, their kids run wild during cons and I'm just waiting for some crazy ass furry to adbuct them.

See if you can find one of the folks that make it their mission the trip the Groatling as often as possible when he is running around full speed.

I'm surprised that they've lasted this long. Hell, I was at their wedding and I didn't expect much then! I'm really surprised she hasn't killed him yet, I know I would have.

Heck, just sitting around listening to him whine and complain about how he has no money and begging for commissions, etc. You know something Jim... get a fucking job. Get off your fat, ugly ass and get a real job and bring in a paycheck. Then maybe you wouldn't have time to prostitute your dubious artistic talents and whine about how you never have any money.

I feel sorry for Rebekah.

I wont say I feel sorry for her, because she is a peice of work as well. But, the way he acts at conventions you'd think their relationship is pretty open. But seriously, he does need to say screw it and get a job doing something. Screw conventions, go work a 40 hour week.

Secret life presupposes a real life before it generally and what I want to know is, when did Groat get a life? I think this is something that would have made furry headlines.

I know this is a archive for jabbing fun at people and all, but, man, doesn't a posting like this make anybody at least a little uncomfortable?

Maybe it's just me, but I just don't get off on talking pleasure in the problems of others, enemies or not.

There's a sorta...creep fact to this one.

You sir have odviously never experienced Chavs...

When a bunch of burberry/bling clad preschoolers start yelling at you from the entrance to their council estate then bombing little kids becomes the LEAST of your worries

8 years olds are bastards IME...the 2 year old I have no comment

I work with kids everday, that's my job and I just find it kinda below the standard of a full grown adult taking pot shots at someone too young to either reply in kind to defined themselves or are the product of how they were brought up. Sure, once they reach a certain age than all's far, but I'd like to think it'd be below even your standards of verbally attacking a 3 year old. Unless of course that's the level that one feels confortable at making comments towards.

Adults, well, they can speak up for themselves, but even I have my standards. Granted, some adults that post may have the mental capacity of the age level we're talking about, but that's a whole other matter.

I didn't contest that you worked with kids. I'm just saying that as an american you've been spared from CHAV kids

Though I do have to agree that most kids are fine. It's a lot to do with the parents and how they are brought up that turns little kids into little brats

So many kids now are trying too hard to be little adults too fast. And if they want to swear and cuss and drink and smoke and bully and intimidate like adults then they should be punished like adults.

Think of it as teaching the kids what their parents won't. "Hey kid, you shouldn't run in the halls." *TRIP* "See? Told ya so."

If the parents don't have the time to discipline their kids, I'm more than happy to.

Enemy? Who the fuck said Groat was our enemy? Since when does the forum hold enemies?

Sorry, sorry. EL's spending too much time among the furries. Guess that us-versus-them all-or-nothing fetishistic drive to either embrace or destroy rubbed off on him. He'd detoxify if he spent more time here or in real life, I'm sure.

A sad shake of the head and some vacant staring is all I'll get into. Things are on the upswing anyway, so good for 'em. Maybe the public embarassment put Groat's ass in gear.

Then consider me punished ;D THANK YOU SAH, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER SAH?

Besides this is all speculation. Tripping is one thing...but no one here would really throw a bomb as some kids...too messy for a start ;D
