don't talk about my monkey that way!!

your monkey mocks viciously

thanks.  (what does YMMV mean? i meed a texting dictionary.)

I was the same way, but now my kids are kind of resentful, just saying. YMMV

And believe me, Girl, I support you completely

our "brand" is a marketers dream!!  for me growing up, my parents were always 'cutting off" from family.  I'm just now reconnecting with my cousins-which is great.  i don't want to do that to my kids and i'm using the crazy to teach my kids how to deal with difficult people, ie "Benny have you noticed that Mommy doens't spend a lot of time with Aunt Beth???  That's why we're going for a walk right now.  Just walk away —don't let people get to you ."  (just walk away & go write about it somewhere...)
ps-sorry for jacking the thread. 

Of course it is, I know that. I am just speaking from my own experience.

There's a saying: Functional families are all the same, but dysfunctional families have their own brand of crazy.

Just remember, you can choose.

its complicated...

You're still going, huh? I totally know where you are coming from, but as someone who spent years and years trying to make everybody happy, I can tell you that it won't pay off in the end. 

If I were you, I would let everyone else go and you take a vacation by having the house to yourself. 

This is a rant: my horror show of a sister in law is all into karate & she makes her kids do it & she makes them call her ma'am & she is trying to make my kids call her ma'am. She thinks she's some kind of a half assed drill seargent or something. She's soaggressive &judgementmental &  obnoxious. She's like a battering ram of negativity & bullshit. FYI- we're down the shore with my her & my in laws right now —the pricks that wouldn't let my son bring his Service Dog with him.  God it felt good to write that. Ok carry on...

like this?

silva will be much more prepared (i'm sure) cause he knows that sonnen ain't no joke

at this level a split second mistake could be all that it takes

Yes, I think it goes very similar to the first fight which Sonnen dominated for 4 and a half rounds, then got caught in a triangle. This time I don't think Silva is as fortunate. That Sonnen is something, he is so arrogant and outrageous I actually have come to sort of like him!

i work with a guy that is into this sport and he says yes

he said the cs had silva beat last time and slipped up at the end (silva got a submission hold)

There are threads for just about every other sport, thought I would start one for mixed martial arts to discuss upcoming fights and news out of the fighting world in general. So, is Sonnen gonna bet the first to defeat Silva in years tonight? I think maybe so.
