gee that post seems familier

so did you talk to her after or did you smack her and decide that was enough


That was enough. As long as there was stuff I had to do I couldn't let 'revenge' get in the way.

I would have decked her as well. Some people have no common sense whatsoever.

That is horrible, send my best regards to your sister.

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

You've had some really tough times in your life, haven't you Obbi? That's why you clown around all the time isn't it? I had a teacher like that. His mom died when he was a kid, he accidently struck and killed a cyclist in the dark... and he still jokes around all the time. You seem pretty similiar to him.

And I don't mean to seem selfish, but that really scared me. My brother loves to ride ATVs, and is often rather reckless. I hope to god he never does something like that...

Please, tell us when your sister is better. Best of luck to her, and I hope that she gets well soon. She's in the hospital now; she's safe. Remember that, and make sure she does as well.

One other thing; don't hate your friends. They had been you're friends for a reason- don't give that up now. Tell them how stupid they were, sure. You deserve a place to vent, and if they are truly your friends, they will understand that and help you.

Edit- Dang it I can't see Vella's reply.

Eh, I'm not going to go into any Freud speak in this post, so I'll ignore responding to any other replies, as that really isn't the point of this topic.

I've had stuff like that happen to me. If she really tore that much of the epidermis off, I'd think she may need a skin graft. You said that she already got stitches, so it sounds as if they atleast got the bleeding under control, Anaesthetic used, right?

Back to the point, if she tore enough off of it, the stitches will look like hell once they're done, no matter how good the surgeon was.

You said she's 14, if she's even the slightest bit self-conscious a skin graft to cover up the scar would be a help, you can get the skin from a donor, or you can do like I did and just get it off of yourself. It will help in the long run, emotionally and physically.

She might have been able to get the graft before the stitches, but I'd think she would have to wait for a complete heal and for the stitches to dissolve now, which will happen in under a month.

It's tough to go through stuff like that, and unfortunatately it makes you learn a lot about the people you know, as I'm sure you'll understand what I mean without having to say much more...

As for the response, it was good atleast from you, the woman who was talking to you aout your sister was probably in shock, people will often do that, a side affect of a desensitized reality where people wake up and see the gore pretty quick... But anyways, I won't publicly say I recommend punching a person, but it is a lot better than her raising your sisters heart rate, especially with a severed femoral? artery.

I was kinda suprised at the reactions by most of the members here. There were very few people that said stupid things. I guess there is hope for our race after all. I'd like to thank everyone for that. While not the purpose of the thread at all, it has been rather inspirational.

There are no irrelevant quotes of historical figures here. Neither will you find any links, chain posts, memes, clan advertisements, self-promotions, or the tiniest of ASCII pictures.

So go away.

Obbi always does seem to have a strange effect on people.

I wish I had the guts to sock someone who is being that stupid. Not to sound unsympathetic (though it's not one of my virtues), but it sounds so...cathartic.

I KNEW YOU WERE A DUDE!!!! But, I do feel for ya', same thing happened to me when I was about 9. This ain't about me though, and I don't remember -blam!- about what I did, so, all I can say is that I wish you the best of luck with, uh, helping her out and stuff.

Yeah it was true.

your sister is quite lucky to have come away with just a broken leg and hip (i don't mean to trivialize the gravity of her injury). a friend of mine rolled an ATV when he was in middle school. he came away from the accident as a paraplegic. but, he managed to win a big lawsuit against the ATV manufacturer, and seemed to be coping (as best as i imagine anyone could) with the change in lifestyle. so no one saw it coming when he blew his brains out after we'd graduated from high school.

Believe me, I know how fortunate she is. I don't dwell on "could be's" or "could have been's", but I do understand that she was fortunate enough to walk away with injuries she could recover from.

man that has to suck Obbi.i send my best regards to your sister.


P.S. that girl you clocked deserved it from the way you said it.

  • 09.27.2004 10:20 AM PDT

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

Woah... Hope she feels better. Wait, the person who was giving you a ride "didnt want to scratch his car" while your sister had an ATV on top of her? Some people...

Ive never had anything that serious happen to me, so I can't truley sympathize, but send her my regards. Even though I doubt you will. Still, I hope she feels better.

Trust me, not being able to play Halo would be at the absolute bottom of your list of problems.

And Obbi, any update on how your sister is doing?
