I missed where everyone got their skirts in a bunch. It must be buried in here somewhere but here is my theory from someone who seldom posts because everything moves so fast it is tough to keep up.

It's all Scouts fault.

Without Scout around bringing up how he banged your mom last night, the overall swampiness starts to dry up and things get too "nice". Then people start getting used to "nice" and get offended when it doesn't stay nice.

Come on back Scout and set things right. Just ignore those ones that piss you off. Or better yet, bang their mom to get even. Smile

Candice isn't going anywhere. We're taking back the swamp and when we're done she'll be back and she'll fit right in. This place needs people with a fire in their belly and a sense of goddam humor. The kind of fire that gets you out the door to DO something not the kind that gets your panties in a bunch over what someone else thinks of your "outfit." The kind that doesn't come with built-in excueses or whining. The kind of fire that lets you run a breakthrough marathon three weeks after a gastro-intestinal meltdown in the race you've been training for for six months. Intestingal goddam fortitude. That kind. Where the fuck is sabershooter, anyway? And the kind of sense of humor that lets you be the but of every shit and diaper joke anyone can think of and let it roll off. Not the kind who gives a rats ass whether you like my skirt (not that I personally wear skirts.)

And for the record I never said I was leaving for good, just going for a beer with Scout and JK. I'll take this whole place with me when I go motherfuckers. WHAT NOW, BITCHES??

Daddyo you're killin' me, dude.

Finally, two videos to share:

The first one is entitled THIS IS HOW WE HANDLE SHIT AT FENWAY.

The second one, FENWAY SECURITY IS NOT NEARLY AS GOOD AT CATCHING PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT FAT AND SLOW.

The moral of this story? I dunno.

The whole Candice "fat" thread was fucked up. Some people took what she wrote as a personal attack when it clearly was not. Now what Candice wrote might have been ill thought and short sighted but it contained no evil intent towards anyone on this board. The resulting nuclear personal attack on Candice was uncalled for. I am not defending what she wrote, but people come on.


While the Candice "fat" thread was normally something that would get me offended, I had respect for where she was coming from with her thoughts. I tried my best not to add any extra fuel to that fire.

I figure any post that is shaped as a personal attack is more mischievous poking rather than malevolent in nature, and even if I think it's malevolent, I try to take that "mental punching bag" out to my next hill or long run when my effort starts slipping to help fire me back up.

If you're getting ticked off at something, maybe you need to go run or something else that lets that tension out. As a fat-ass computer programmer for most of my 12 year career, I know one thing: TYPING DOES NOT RELIEVE STRESS. It usually makes things worse: whether you're venting or just working.

You know, I've really had enough. I run in a skirt because it's comfortable...fuck you if that makes me less of a runner. I just ran 12 miles on an injured knee, have had a couple of months of dealing with serious respiratory shit and now the knee thing--great way to kick-off marathon training, huh? I'm sure someone will tell me that I have no place running a marathon, next.

So I'm not a purist or an elite...I'm just a chubby jogger in a skirt running at a slug's pace. I guess you could mock me for being a fatty on the couch eating bon-bons, too. I can't win no matter what I do. I could wear shorts and spend my runs in pain and bleeding from severe chafing (I had issues with shorts back in HS when I weighed 110#s, too). That would probably make me a real runner.


Hey K - read my response in the RFS group. Don't want the nasty people here to get all uppity!
Nothing to say at the moment.

Candice belongs here. So does Scout, and so does JK. This isn't a touchy feely place and if you can't take that you should be the one committing cyber suicide; not them.

What i like about the swamp is that the atmosphere is such that members can joke and give each other a bad time and add some comedic relief to a sometimes "crappy" day. In a virtual age where we can all leave comments instantaneously, sometimes posts don't get the forethought that they might need. It might be good to sometimes think about how our comments affect others.

I think sometimes its good to step away from the computer and focus our energy elsewhere. If something you read bugs you or is offensive, step away for a few minutes and do something else. Go for a run and see if you're still angry when you come back.

Case and point..........

Maybe you should experiment with new techniques. Ones that don't break your legs.


Maybe it was just the timing, but it felt deconstructive. I turned off the computer, slept on it, and in the morning, it didn't matter.

I think everybody here has had one or two direct or indirect comments they could have taken personally. Good advice, Casa.

I'm so laid-back that I've never taken anything personally...until you said that Drew. How dare you insult my laidbackness?
