Ever been kicked out of something?
A club, school, or other thing you were a part of and then expelled? What was it and why?
shareI got suspended from a hockey league for fighting. No big deal.

My mothers womb.
share5th grade, and 9th grade.
Various classes in high school.
I got held back in 10th grade, I seen my education through and did better in college but still i'm in debt and couldn't decide on a major, that and balancing mental illness and wanting to be a musician or actor
I know how to apply myself but i'm a big dummy(money always an obstacle), had an ok childhood but not educational enough
I actually graduated early. Who really needs fifth grade anyway.
And, yeah, I'm pretty mentally 'complex'. It's a lonely challenge. I feel for you. Glad you were able to kick the klonopin. I'm down to 2mg a day. But I eat a lot of edible thc, to keep the noise down.
oh cool you remembered an old post, ya I talk about personal stuff like that sometimes. Klonopin was great but after moving across the country and back I knew it was time to kick it. It was hard getting prescription refills in oregon, my nurse would litterally write 3 prescription with no refills on the bottle instead of giving like 2 refills or something like I was used too, screwed things up at the pharmacy.
I am still on a low dose of an a-typical antipsychotic still, would like to tackle that and my financial troubles if that could be done, but if I had too take it forever at least bring home some more bacon.
I have to take my meds forever.
shareYeah, a bar! Underage! I had been served several drinks and sort of got wild!
shareSo not much has changed then 😉
shareDarn it! The underage part did...I don’t get carded anymore! 😢
shareI know the feeling 😭
shareWan King the first time I was called “M’am“ I nearly croaked! 😢😭
shareThe first time a young girl held a door for me and called me "Sir"... I just wanted to crawl under a rock.
shareRight? I can’t stand if a female younger than me calls me ma’am. It doesn’t go over well.
I don’t think I call anyone sir unless I’m being sarcastic. I like saying mister.
How about "daddy" ;)
shareI prefer poppy, but that one’s reserved.😁
shareShe would say "Ay, Papi!" and look at me with those dark eyes. I was done! Captured.
One that got away 😃
The good ones know how to leave you remembering them with a smile.😊
shareI was twenty, she was eighteen. An illegal fresh from Mexico and a wild kid that didn't speak a word of spanish lol!
I was like a little puppy just following her around 😅
Lol sounds like a fun and explosive mix! I speak the language of love baby. You should’ve married her, but I know at 20 you still had a lot of green grass to explore. After all these years that sexy accent is still fresh in your head. Cute.☺️
shareI wonder sometimes what our kids would look like. Hell by now we'd be looking for great grandkids.
I've known more women than I care to count. Still haven't found The One.
Took me forever and a lot of shit relationships before I did. I was determined to stay single forever, no relationship is worth the hassle! That’s when my caveman walked in my life. I didn’t even see him coming.
shareI was married 6 days after my 19th birthday. Believe me when I say I had sowed a lots of oats and drunk a lot of drink by that time. I was tired!
shareHere in MS the folks always say “Miss _____” before your name, either your first or your surname. Now I’m curious if that “Miss” before your name continues even if you’re 99? 🤔
shareYes, i lived in ga for a long time and they do this also. I love it. Yes, it continues. You will always be miss kspksp. However, until you are 99, you shall not be addressed as ma’am. That’s just rude.
shareDamn it! You are correct! No ma’am thrown at this chick, babe, darlin, sweetie, etc. 🥰
Ditto that 😕. I was so shocked.
But I thought everyone got ma'amed in the South. Isn't is considered good manners?
Oh, we are of course when we aren’t known to them. It is considered good manners for older women. After becoming acquainted with us it’s Miss plus the first name. But, there were times when we didn’t want to be “ma-amed ” such as in our twenties or thirties. The subject have has been discussed in sit-coms.
I’m from the north originally, so I’m not sure about proper southern manners, but if a female is only a few years younger and tries to ma’am you? Them are fighting words. I can forgive any other ma’amings.
shareI was only about 23 when I first got ma'amed and always looked younger than my age! 😠
Honestly, I don't see why there's any need to add on Ma'am, Mister, Miss, or Sir. Just be polite and friendly. That's good manners according to Catbookss 😊
When we were having this house constructed, the job foreman always addressed me by Miss *****. After awhile I told him to just call me by my first name...the Miss wasn’t necessary. He replied “Miss *****, if my mama heard me call you by only your first name, she would skin me alive!” I’ve heard that repeated throughout the years we’ve lived here. It’s a traditional Southern thing...and I mean the old South. Odd thing though, the most Southern state of all, Florida isn’t part of that charm. Too many “damn yankees” as Scarlett would say...
shareYeah, I'm sure there are many New Yawkers or otherwise snowbirds in FL, which makes an interesting cultural mix.
I agree with you that the Miss ___ isn't necessary at all, but also understand there's a strong cultural ... habit? I don't know what else to call it. Whatever the word is, I get there are people who feel very uncomfortable, as though they're being rude, by not calling someone Ma'am, Miss, or Sir. IMO it's totally unnecessary and causes more problems than it solves.
Just be friendly and polite to me, and leave off any Miss, Mrs, Ma'am, Mister, Sir, or any other unnecessary form of address, thanks.
