Don't take the bait. It's just too obvious.

This thread is too good to fall into this person's (gee, what restraint, I didn't say idiots) trap.

I'm guessing the answer is no, but I have to ask anyway: Does it even occour to you that the screen name your using is very offensive?

What's offensive? I thought Dionysus was a mythical Greek character...god of mirth or livations. something like that. Or is theresomething I'm missing (as usual) in the name that my mind can't decipher?

JWOW, I got it!

Tombstone!

You know how it is tuff for us old folks to catch on! Damn and I was feeling so sorry for the poor child of unborn parents!

Ah well what the Hell! Lets Party!

Can I add more? This is just too fun.

-I love Tabasco sauce. On everything. It makes Mr. XO_Princess sick. One time, I was hungover, and all I wanted to do was smell a bottle of Tabasco sauce...and I felt better.

-When I was a little kid, I used to stick band-aids all over my body, and I wouldn't let my Mom take them off. I'd go to school like that, and in order for them not to think she was abusing me, my Mom would call ahead and tell them what was up. Is it any wonder I went to nursing school?

-Freshman year of college, I took Italian. Couldn't speak it very well sober, but after a few beers, it came out fluentely.

-I can't give blood to save my life. The only time I tried, they had to stop in the middle of the donation, b/c-even though I was drinking sprite, eating crackers, and had 3 ice packs on-I started to pass out.

Ok, I'll stop now.

I am the SAME way about giving blood. I try every year when the little blood bus comes to work, but I get so anxious about it I actually get a temperature - I mean like 102!

Yeah, and also god of actors.

Would it be cool if my screen name was John the Baptist or the Paul the Apostle. or how about Jesus, can my screen name be Jesus? I wouldn't want my screen name to be that, because I know that it would offend people. I would catch hell.

AH, excellent point!!!

Talk about offensive- The yearbook at U of H (not sure what year-maybe 71-72) opened the Greek section with a paragraph from
"Ship of Fools". Now THAT ticked me off!

Yeah, the HUGE difference being that I don't know anyone who believes in the ancient Greek religion, while there are active Christians out there! If you can find someone out there who actually worships Dionysis nowadays, I'd double over from shock.

This thread has taken a turn. Let's get back on track:
I'm the oldest of three sisters.
I'm the tallest of three sisters.

Not very exciting information, but I just thought that I would share.

Hi my name is Billy, and I worship Dionysis. I have the statue and everything. Are you doubled over yet?
