So, where were you with this contemptible tripe last week?

Last week, when I was having such a shitty week...
Where were you then, with alla this disrespect and messing with someone I care about?
Ya worm.

Matters not, though.
Last week, this week... whenever.

You mess with Darrel, you'd be better off messin' with ME.
And, that's any time.

I don't know if you're a man or a woman, but if you ARE a man, you need to turn your balls in and get your uterus, you're such a bitch. A man hater. A femi-nazi, even, the way you try to do Darrel.

As soon as someone starts running men down, I think "woman". I also start to have what amounts to an allergic reaction, as I break out in fists.
Yes, I immediately side with the guy, til it's proven to my satisfaction that I'm wrong to do so.
Very rarely does that happen, lem'me tell ya.
And, that's just men in general.

You start running down a man I know is a real man, a man I halfway know from seeing such an intimate documentary of his life, a man I like a helluvalot and you're asking for trouble.

So, you asked for it, you got it.
Idiot.

Not to mention, buuut... Not sure what this means or says about me, nor do I give a shit, but I've had Helter Skelter on non-stop for about three days so far.
I don't know how, though. I stuck the DVD in sometime Sunday, I think, and it's just been playing over and over and over since.
I didn't ask it to, it just is.
Even more bizarre, I also have the VHS tape playing in here as I type, so I can hear it better. (Note: Just got changed, by Eric, to The Stand... 6:20pm)
I have yet to see the whole thing from beginning to end since Sunday. I think I might be waiting til I do to turn it off, I dunno.
Meanwhile, since I don't know how it's doing it, I kinda feel like it's the "free porn" thing from Friends, when Joey and Chandler get the free porn and never shut it off.

SO... that may have a lil something to do with my attitude with this douchebag.

Just thought I'd mention it...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, what we have here is one of my favorite kinda cowards.
Those are the kind who comment on old posts, make all kindsa asinine statements and don't even say who they are.

This "person" seems to have taken exception to the fact that I am totally behind Darrel Buschkoetter all the way.
Doesn't seem to care for the idea that I believe in Darrel and want nothing but all the good things life has to offer for him.

Well, I take exception to that.

So, here we go...

Excuse me....

No.

but Darrel needed a big kick in the ass!

Excuse ME. You need to step down... NOW.
Darrel needed support, love, strength, backup and a real partner. Not more abuse.
Apparently, you didn't comprehend what you saw, if you even watched TFW, because, if you had actually SEEN anything in it, you'd know that Darrel did get the equivalent of kicks in the ass from his Dad every day, in every way.
He got talked down in town by people like YOU, he got lied about, lied to, used and hurt badly.
And, Juanita's family? Oh don't even get me started. Talk about kicks in the ass... her and her sister, sitting under that tree, running Darrel down and laughing at him... sending cards to her and the kids leaving his name off... her Mom putting him down with every word... My God, "person". A real kick in the ass probably would have been a relief to Darrel.
Of course, it would take real balls to kick the man in person, which absolutely none of these people had, nor do you, obviously.

He spent valuable time at his daddy's farm (when he needed to be working on his own farm), while Juanita had to beg for loans because they were knee-deep in debt! Hell, she didn't have the money to take their child to the doctor, or anything else for that matter.

Again... did you not hear ONE WORD Darrel said when he and Juanita had this discussion, when she accused him of wasting time at his Dad's? She was fulla shit theories, too, about what he "shoulda" done and "coulda" done, none of which panned out in the face of Darrel's goals and dream.
Not that she, or you, care about that.
Leroy couldn't pay Darrel a compliment, ya think he'd part with cash? Besides which, he couldn't have afforded Darrel, even if he had tried to pay him.
Not only is Darrel damned good at what he does, he did it for Leroy outta LOVE, trying to have some kinda connection to that man, as well as for his future.
As for Juanita "begging for loans"... Um, when did that happen? I heard people OFFER her money to take the kid to the doctor. I heard her say her mother-in-law paid it, not that she had to ask her to. I also heard her say she hated to say anything to her family, because they'd "just send money and it's nice to know they care aboutcha that much, but..."
So, if she didn't have the money for certain shit, it was her own fault. She could've gotten it, especially for something like a sick kid.
But, it was obvious as hell that playing the martyr was what she chose to do instead.
Oh, and Darrel DID work his own farm, every night when he got home from WORK!

He put himself first by refusing to consider anything other than the farm.

Well, Jesus! Somebody needed to do it! She sure as fuck didn't. My hand to GOD, all she talks about is MONEY. Hell, I don't have any either, but I don't let it rule my life, fer fuck's sake.
I get JOBS, where I make more'n 4 cents an hour in a situation I can never hope to achieve that makes me resent my husband, unlike some people... Juanita.
The ONLY way she put Darrel first was in the "blame" line.
She blamed him for everything.
Her quitting school.
Her not being able to get back to school.
Their financial situation.
Her increasing coldness toward him.
Her stress.
Everything....
I can easily see at least two reasons why it's totally proper and makes sense that Darrel would "put himself first", as you put it.
1.) I too would rather spent the night in a combine than listen to somebody whine and bitch and blame me for everything all night long.
2.) Losing that farm would kill him. Period.
Understanding that simple, yet mutli-layed, many faceted concept makes the difference between a good farm wife and a bad, BAD one (doesn't it, Maryanne?).
There's a saying that Harley riders use... "If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand it anyway."
Same here.
It's no more wrong for Darrel to be that way than it is for her not to be. It was just wrong of her to lead him on like she did, run him down like she did and hurt him like she did.

I don't blame her if she left him.

Neither do I.
Why would I blame her for giving him one of the greatest gifts a man can get?
PEACE.
Honestly, whether even he knows it or not yet, this is going to turn out to be one of the top ten best things that's ever happened to him.
When the next one happens... when he finally finds "her", the woman who'll love him to pieces BECAUSE he's who he is and how he is, when he finally finds out what really being loved is about, he'll understand it then.
I just hope it happens for him SOON. Breaks my heart to think of him all alone, with no one's arms to come home to. That sweet little face of his BEGS to be kissed upon multiple times at once. Every time, too, damn it. (*grin*)

Who'd want a guaranteed life of misery?

Well, Juanita springs to mind, with her attitude about what "happiness" is, for one.
And, Darrel sure as hell doesn't deserve that.
In fact, a life with Darrel would be a joy, to see a man so thoroughly love what he does, to help him realize his dream, to make him happy, spoil his ass rotten... yeah, man. That'd be cool... will be a blast for the right woman, too.

Bravo for her if she left his ass.

Yep.
I'll give ya that one, too, 'cause as long as she was around, Darrel wouldn't have ever been open to the right woman.

So, what?
Are you related to her or something?
