Dear Shep, Is it possible for me to not look like a dirty douche-nozzle the day after the election?

20201026 Shep as Author 

We've all seen a pathetic, weak-minded woman fall for men unattainable and uninterested in her.  Hybristophilia is an extreme form of this pathology.  Sufferers of milder forms of related paraphilias may exhibit irrational attachments to figures in politics, sports, and popular culture.  Some have even been known to become fixated on popular figures in social media.  The following unsolicited Email text is likely from a middle-aged, paraphilia-afflicted, sexually frustrated woman stuck in a low-paying, dead-end, barely-skilled line of work.

Dear Shep,

I am so tired of wrecking relationships with my friends and family.  You see, I have this compulsion to inject politics into every interaction I ever have with another person.  To allow a person to have a strong opinion that differs from mine is impossible.  I always screw everything up when someone I love disagrees with me.  When Trump was elected I was so upset that I drove all of my sane friends away.  You are such a strong man with so many friends.  Can you help me?  I can't control myself and I just don't understand how people who don't vote like me can still be friends after an election.  

                                                                                        Your Secret Admirer

                                                                                        MUAH!

Y.S.A., I am a married man and not interested in having a secret admirer.  Still I may be able to help you with your interpersonal problems.  Understand that this will never be any more than an arm's length relationship.  I've made a few notes over the past four years involving a woman who appears to be in your exact situation.  I hope you'll find my advice helpful.  The parallels between this poor soul's life and what you've described are uncanny.  Most of the comments below pertain to the 2016 Presidential Election.

I hope you can use the example of this woman whose life is...um...remarkably similar to yours... to draw a few conclusions about things you need to change.

Don't make wild predictions before election night, especially if you don't plan on voting yourself.

This woman has tacitly admitted to not voting.  

She would also have been more persuasive had she elected to avoid the safety-pin intersectional virtue signaling.

Your guys will win some and lose some.  Don't let your anger get the better of you.

Just the tip?

Really?  

Subsequent comments from this mentally ill woman will indicate deep-seated rage issues.

If you can't say something nice...

That the curse-laced rage sounded better in her head than it did to her readers.  

Don't recruit other people to do your dirty work for you.

This means one really shouldn't proffer sex to a man in return for hurting people with whom one does not agree politically.

It also means one shouldn't send pictures of one's bare breasts to a redneck hillbilly for the same purpose.  

Just accept the fact that some people don't see the political landscape the same way.  Diversity of thought is just as important as diversity of skin color.

If your degree is in Womyn's Studies or Art, please leave predictions about the election's effect on the markets to the professionals.

Who judges a politician's effect on the capital markets less than a week after an election?

Stupid people do.  That's who.

Don't say things you'll regret after you sober up.  Better still don't post while under the influence.

America is a civilized country.  

Civilized people don't wish for their political opponents to be shot.

Be mature enough to handle a little good-natured ribbing.

Epo is one of the nicest commenters on disqus.

This was totally uncalled for.  He was very upbeat and kind in his comments.

This nasty comment was in response to Epo's advice on how this mentally ill woman could lift her spirits.

It's just an election.  You'll get another shot next cycle.

There is just no point in becoming angry.  Focus on what can be done to promote one's political ideas until the next election.

Don't make wild dystopian predictions.

Didn't most people gain weight during the Trump administration?

Who was suffering?  This mentally ill woman continued working at the state funded job she chose.  

Outside of the high crime areas where the police have been defunded, and outside of the places where BLM/ANTIFA are staging riots, most people are not suffering.  Before the Wu-Hu-Flu we were enjoying record growth and prosperity.

The Belle Isle Walmart in Oklahoma City is filled with even more smiling Moslems than it was four years ago.  The Native Americans I know seem to be doing about the same as they were in 2016.  Women seem to be doing even better than they were in 2016.   Any commenter capable of introspection would be a bit embarrassed after making this irrational outburst.

Abortion is still legal, isn't it?  This reads like paranoia and virtue signaling rolled into a emotional speedball designed to enhance her sense of self-pity..

Don't lie to enhance your standing in an argument.

Labeling everyone on the right as an "Alt" is disingenuous, especially considering this mentally ill woman completely overlooks the extreme "Alt" characteristics of her favorite disqus-dirty-pic pen-pal.

If you didn't vote, you probably should keep your opinions to yourself.

This mentally ill woman did not vote in the election she is complaining about.  She had not voted for a minimum of four years prior to that election either. 

If you have power over the other person, it is not OK to use it to "win" the argument.

This mentally ill woman is noted for coordinating mass spamming attacks that occurred across 5 blogs simultaneously.  The net effect was to drive the disqus rep scores of people with whom she disagreed politically so low that the commenters were no longer able to comment on most of disqus.  The comments spammed were in most instances over a year old.  This stunt was very likely part of the impetus behind the closure of the disqus channel system.  

In the example above one can see that she also was in the habit of deleting individual posts of commenters with whom she disagreed.  In this mentally ill woman's world, she was winning the argument by silencing the other side.

Don't use magical thinking to create some sort of a "win" fantasy.

One has to ask, how did that work out for her?  One has to wonder if this mentally ill woman has the ability to look back, see the curse didn't work, and realize that casting spells is too silly for a normal sixth grader to accept as real. 

Remember, we're all Americans.

When the election is over and she sobers up, her countrymen will still be her countrymen.  Is she no longer interested in being an American just because the wrong party came to power?

For Heaven's sake, don't wish harm on people who didn't vote the way you wanted.

The best advice that can be offered to this poor mentally ill woman is to refrain from posting while drinking, crossfading, or even while angry.  Surely she must be embarrassed to look back at her behaviour in 2016.  

Y.S.A, the best advice I can offer is that you accept people for who they are.  Disappointment is understandable if your side fails to prevail in an election.  Hatred is not.  Just remember we are all still Americans and we are all still in this together.  I really hope this helped you to think about your problem in a way that will help you to move past it.

Ah Yes, The Memories...

 It was Tuesday afternoon, October 6, 2020; I sat in silence and disbelief over the news that day. My phone rang and it was my old friend Harold from Pasadena, California where we had been friends since we were teenagers. I knew exactly why he called. “Did you hear about Eddie?” He asked. “Yes” I replied.

 

Harold and I first met when we were teenagers working at Leslie Organ Speakers in Pasadena. Since we both played guitar I invited him over to jam and was amazed at his lead guitar playing. As I suspected, he learned much of his licks from the incredible lead guitar player Eddie Van Haylen of Mammoth who we would watch at those free outdoor Pasadena parties of about 300 people. One day in 1974 we go to see them and the back wall behind them was covered by a large sheet with their new band name Van Halen. Everyone in town knew Eddie and Alex, they’d be at all the parties whether they were playing or just dropping in to get high with the rest of us. They played mostly cover songs, their originals weren’t very good back then, that’s why you never heard their flops like “I’ve got work to do” but they were growing and getting better. So, to his credit was David Lee Roth. Before that we would tease Eddie “So when are you going to fire Dave and get a real singer?” “Hey man,” Eddie explained, “it’s no secret, his father is bankrolling us so we need him for now.” Eddie was a shy introvert but friendly and down to earth as was his brother and they didn’t approve of Roth smugly looking down on everyone, including them. By 1975 the word was out: Van Haylen was now playing at Gazzarri’s, the famous night club in Hollywood. We knew they were on their way to the top and it was there that they were discovered by Gene Simmons who helped them get a recording contract with Warner Brothers.

 

Even after Van Haylen became superstars we would still run into Eddie, casual as ever, in the now defunct music stores in Pasadena. The last time I saw him was in 1986 when I was buying guitar strings at Piano and Organs music store on Colorado Blvd. The clerk saw who was approaching the counter behind me walking in and said “Well, Mister Van Haylen.” I turned around and said “Eddie! Are you here to buy another guitar?” “Nah, just strings” he said with his usual lovable Eddie smile.  “Yeah” I said, “Cause there’s nothing wrong with the guitars you’ve got” (he had a lot of them, all very expensive).

 

Before we ended our phone conversation Harold and I made plans that he would come to visit me in Hawaii after this virus lockdown ends, as a part of our youth ended with the passing of Eddie. As always, I’ve got my equipment ready so we can jam, Harold on guitar, me on bass and an auto rhythm to cover the drums. We are going to jam just like we did in the good old days!

 

Goodbye Eddie, and thank you for all those fun memories.

The Silence of the Lambs Property Tour | Buffalo Bill’s Home | 8 Circle St.

The Pennsylvania house made famous as the home of serial killer 'Buffalo Bill' in the 1991 horror film 'Silence of the lambs' is being listed for $300.000.

The Perryopolis home, originally built in 1910, severed as a pivotal location for 'Silence of the lambs, and several of the scene's were filmed in it's rooms.

Eileen Allan, who is teaming up with her sister, Shannon Assad to sell the home for Berkshire Hathaway, said the house is in much cleaner condition than when it served as the serial killer's residence.

"In the movie they kind of trashed the house and made it look really neglected and kind of destroyed the inside," Allan told NBC's today show." It's way nicer in person."

The home is being listed for $298,500, and Allan said there has already been some interest. She said that if the property doesn't sell by Halloween, she is considering bringing in a psychic medium to the house for a live stream.

"We thought we'd see if she sees any spirits or feels any spirits," Allan said.

'Embrace differences; Teen secures record for world's longest female legs

 A US teenager who has the world record for the longest female legs is encouraging people with unique physical attributes to "embrace"  them.

Maci Curran from Texas has a right leg that is 134.3cm long and a left leg that is 135.3cm long.

She stands at 6ft 10in and it wasn't until she was offered a custom-made pair of leggings two years ago that she realised she could have record breaking legs.

The 17-year-old said her message to people with unusual physical attributes is "don't hide it-embrace it" and she hopes her record title will inspire other tall women.

While she finds it difficult to get through some doorways, into cars, or into some clothes, her long legs have advantages when she is playing on her school's volleyball team.

According to Guinness World Records, Maci wants to attend university in the UK.

Maci took the world record from Russia's Ekaterina Lisina.

But, despite her long legs, she is far from being the tallest woman, a record held by Sun Fang from China, who stands at 7ft 3in.

Musician in relationship with 'African Kim Khardashian' to run for president

 Diminutive musician Grand P has revealed that he plans to run for president of his home country Guinea and that his plus-sized model fiancee Eudoxie Yao is running his campaign.

Grand P ,real name Moussa Sandiana Kaba, was born with progeria, an extremely rare genetic disorder that has affected his physical stature.

 The singer last month became engaged to Ivorian plus-sized model Eudoxie Yao.

Following the announcement the couple hit back at vicious internet trolls who said their relationship is a "marketing stunt" by defiantly clapping back that "size doesn't matter".

And now the musician and producer has revealed on Facebook: "I declare my candidacy for the 2020 presidential election in Guinea. May god bless Guinea."

Grand P is reportedly forming his political party called Amour Consideration et Unite (ACU) to contest the Presidential election.

His fiancee Yao said on Facebook: "I will be in Guinea with my future husband Grand P, the next president of Guinea. I will run his campaign."

According to Culture Ebene, it's been a great year for Grand P, who announced in May that he had been contacted by a large American production company about two films to be shot between the Guinea capital Conakry and Los Angeles in the US.

Yao also has political ambitions of her own in her native Ivory Coast, however her candidacy was rejected.

On Instagram, she said: "full support for my future husband Grand P, the future president of the Republic of Guinea.

Meanwhile, Grand P is expected to marry Yao in January next year.

Potty-mouthed parrots split up by zoo bosses after egging each on to swear

 Five foul-mouthed parrots have had to be separated after encouraging each other to swear at a Lincolnshire zoo.

The parrots-named Billy, Eric, Tyson, Jade and Elsie-joined Lincolnshire Wildlife's Centre's colony of 200 grey parrots in August.

But it did not take them long to ruffle a few feathers with their foul language.

"We saw it very quickly; we are quite used to parrots swearing but we've never had five at the same time," Steve Nicholls, CEO of the wildlife park said.

"Most parrots clam up outside, but for some reason these five relish it."

The parrots have since been distributed to different areas of the park so they don't set each other off.

Mr Nicholls explained that nobody had complained about the parrots, but they were separated for the sake of young visitors in the hope they would pick up natural calls from the other African grey parrots.

"People have come to us, they think it's highly amusing, we haven't had one complaint ," he added.

"When a parrot tells you to f*** off it amuses people very highly.

"It's brought a big smile to a really hard year."
