Basically, most other countries tell tourists "This is our home, welcome, please enjoy, but respect what's ours." This country says "My ass is yours. Slap me around, daddy."

You are so funny, but yeah I know some countries are like that. They love that tourist dollar. I know for years anyone who went to Paris always complained at how rude the French are, well, with all the terrorism, I'm sure they wish they could get some of the tourists that they have lost back. I know for me I am staying in the USA and even then not visiting big cities. There's plenty to see here.

[Lavender le Fay]

Thank you, I'm glad that came across as funny. Honestly, we're not even getting that tourist dollar. The people who come here pack up everything from home, even bread, then act like they own everything. It annoys me to no end, which I'm sure I've made clear..

I've seen instances of when they don't want to let people in the Louvre for how they're dressed, or harass people on.. that famous graveyard in Paris.

I wonder if it's also a case of not respecting a place because it isn't where you live so you don't care if you mess it up. How selfish.

I love the video and lyrics of We Didn't Start The Fire, it's like fun history :D

@Lav and Sternum I dislike disrespect, I cannot abide it at all! People just don't realize that in the whole scheme of things we are all One.

I used to love Billy Joel, Piano Man is a great song. Also Simon and Garfunkel's The Boxer

I kicked out people for using the other F word in my house, or telling my dog to go away. My mother's former friend asked me to lock him in a room and I told her she has 3 seconds to pick up her things and leave, after that her things belong to me.

[Moonshadow]

I love it!
My dog used to have her favorite outdoor chair, it was a chaise lounge and when guests would come over and they would lay on it, she would harass them and I would tell them,you're in her chair so if she bothers you its on you. They would move, my dog was VERY persistent.

[Lavender le Fay]

They're family, they live there, you don't. You don't get to pick on family. Know what I mean?

I went to the beach! Yes, yes, I did! I went diving, and.. well, there are lots of plastic plates and forks on the floor, so that continues the topic of awful tourists. I did find a nice piece of pale flint, though. It's this beach with volcanic rock that has a lot of flint, but it's dark brown or grey, never light.

I have this friend... Let's call him a friend. He's basically in my group of... In this chat room I frequent, and he's constantly trying to score a sugar daddy. All he talks about how rough his life is. Poor me, I don't have food, my dad hates me, I have issues. So, uh.. why do you play video games all day, which do cost a lot of money, instead of going to school? This is a stupid thing to bring up, but I've seen him try to get attention by lying for months now.

[daikokunyo]

He sounds immature >.>

[Lavender le Fay]

He definitely seems like he is.

[daikokunyo]

Wants to be taken care of all his life and do nothing for himself except play. Yep, definitely immature.

@Lav did you find any obsidian? That is my absolutely favorite rock/mineral.

I hate people that are users. FortheloveofGod! Get a fucking job!
Online friends, can be a blessing or...a curse!

[Lavender le Fay]

I don't think there is any around. I love obsidian, too. Though once I found dried tar, and thought it was obsidian.. Still pretty.

The sad thing is he has all these perverts and lechers giving him life advice, basically, making things worse, kind of.. making him think they want to help him. Also, he never stops.

[daikokunyo]

Instead of helping himself he wants to be taken advantage of... wow
Did you find anything else on the trip?

[Moonshadow]

@Lav remember when I told you I found a blue rock on the beach and it was a big wad of chewing gum? hahaha

This year I will be in Maine for the solar eclipse. I wish I was home though, but on the beach it might be cool, will be hard not to look at the sun. I heard that they are selling fake eclipse glasses.

[daikokunyo]

Fake eclipse glasses? Does that mean the glasses are supposed to protect you when you look at the sun during eclipse but actually don't?
