A Good Day or a Bad Day ?

That our parents, at least in my case, provided a lot more than religion or superficial responsabilty. My parents provided my understanding for what a relationship is and what unfettered love should be, as flawed as it was. If you didn't get that from your parents, then I question why their religion is an impetus for your holding on to it while so close to the cusp of atheism while assuming that your marriage is something to be considered enviable. I'm sure that's because what any child gets from his parents isn't really their perspective on religion, and more what they get from their approach to unyeilding responsability...devotion. There is no measure of loyalness exemplified by kowtowing to your parent's perspective. The best we can do is learn from theirs and build on it.

(What service is paid to them by bending knee thoughtlessly and not extrapolating their own answers? It pays little respect to their journey, much less your own. Many people encounter certainty from our parents perspective because, in turn, their parents died, and they hold it so dear out of obligation and remorse)

Anyone who finds 1 billion dollars a sound replacement for their parent's presence in their lives gets no respect from me.

All of that....irrelevant.

My point was very simple and straight forward. It was jest, as usual. Parents are good for more than just answering the phone and giving advice. That was my point.

See...

What is a bojankies? Are you trying to say bojangles? It doesn't make sense. Maybe "go junkies"? Also seems out of context, really.

Oh. That's good to know. I thought you were a dumbass.

It is a word I made up a long time ago. Robtard loves this about me. This word in the dictionary of dadudemon, means "a language that you speak and write fluently but cannot figure out what is meant in that language...comparable to the word 'gibberish' or 'gobbledygook'".

If you didn't understand a colloquial saying or idiom, you would say..."damn, are you speaking bojankies or something?" It is not gibberish because you know and can spell the words being used. It is not gobbledygook because you can make out the words. Therefore, a new word had to be invented to describe what I was looking for.

Also, as part of a habit, I randomly say the word "bojankies" just to amuse myself.

That was the intention of posting the word "bojankies"...not to say anyone was speaking "bojankies".

Sorry....I am very weird and "outside the box".

While I'm sure it comes across as though I meant thay are good for only those things (I forgot I had to list all qualifiable attributes for you) I am not the one that said a billion dollars would pacify me on the day of their death.

I really, really don't say that enough.

Again, it was jest. I knew what you meant. I was being a smartass.

What did you expect a word to mean that did not exist?

Your deep insights intrigue me. Tell me more...

assuming that wasnt a sarcastic reply....

the thing is, that often, people are OK with the status quo, as long as the familiar/secure equilibrium of their life isnt threatened, they feal secure. money can often provide this security and people say that they are happy with the money. take this example for instance, if you were to ask an average young party animal if partying/sleeping around makes him/her happy, they would probably answer that it does. the same with asking a plastic cheerleader if cheerleading/makeup/clothes and the attention of boys and being bitchy makes them happy. both will almost definately answer in the affirmitive. this is because society around them not only has taught them these ideals of happiness from a young age, but also, made them feal fearful/ashamed by the prospect of NOT being happy when they have these things. it is this conditioning which makes people say that they are happy/excited with their life. MOST people when asked the question of what they actually want in this life, will generally answer in terms of power/money/social security/influence /respect etc. but really in my oppinion, most of these people dont really want that, infact they have never really thought outside the said ideals/fear taught by society and go for what THEY truly want. infact, most of them dont even buy the things they buy for personal comfort, but as a statement of them being rich, fromt their houses to their furniture/cars etc etc. they are too AFRAID to like anything else, or atleast, like anything else in preference to huge quantities of money. this is exactly the reason that questions like the title of this thread work and are made. truly, its a guilt trip for most of us isnt it. even though we are NOT thinking of all the HAPPINESS we can buy out of the things we got for the billion or so dollars as opposed to the happiness we lose fromt he person dying{which is what we SHOULD be weighing} we are just GREEDY, desiring/lusting out of money for no purpose but to have money.

it comes to the concept of greed. which in my oppinion is like desire, which grows exponentiall when you look at what MORE you can gain out of it. its works as an exponential function of sorts. since irrespective of how much of the said thing{money/candy etc} one gains, it isnt really what they need/want/desire. but a person is blinded by just how much MORE of the said quantity he can get with taking the same step in time/effort{a bit like why extremely wealthy businessmess continue on with ever greater money making endevours when thy have more than enough to live on in luxury}. basically, the increasing rate of what can be earned in said quantity bypasses and supressed any thought of WHY the person wants the said quantity in the first place. just like the greed of a billion dollars is seeming SO much more significant than losing a loved one to some people here.

money can never EVER even come close to replacing a loved one.

You guys are just dumb. Who wouldn't just buy the ability to bring one's parents back to life?

Well, I was assuming it was a "It's a word that means when you ask what it means you lose and I win and I trapped you and I am smart and that one time I told an overly specific, yet incredibly dull anecdote, no, wait a minute I do it all the time". You know, one of your typical little games?

I guess it wasn't too far off anyways.

Yes, I will give you "overly specific". In my defense, defining an invented word, thoroughly, should be a must. If one does not define their invented word, they risk the word being be a copy of another word. Originally, when I typed out my reply, my definition resembled "gobblygook" too much. So I had to expand my definition as a means of differentiation.

One thing that I find hilarious...

You probably read my entire post about it...that's probably what pissed you off.

It probably didn't help. But I started getting pissed off shortly after the first paragraph.

Truthfully, sometimes I ramble just to see who will read my diatribes/ramblings and what their reactions will be. I find me entertaining.

I wonder what "I got ****ing owned" means in dadudemon's language.
