Those poor, poor downtrodden women.  I had no idea of the horrible lives and worries they have.  And they are so smart too! :biggrin:

most of you know that i work for a tv broadcasting company.. today. one of the director's had his girlfriend there... well, she's sitting there..3kt rock on her hand. &#36400.00 pocket book.. not to mention the shoes..<!--emo&:)--><img src="http://musclechemistry.mantisforums.com/IB3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
she's on the phone telling someone the best resturants to go to ,, throwing big names around.. etc.... well i watch her eat a pasta salad... go to the bathroom... eat a cookie , down a soda... go to the bathroom.. reapply lipstick.. eat a sandwich... go to the bathroom... eat something else.. go to the bathroom...  
so now tell me.. what the #### was the point of doing all that... that is where they show they have no brains at all...  
oh yes she is skinny as a rail.... big fake tits... voice like a trucker.. because all the stomach acids that are eating it away... wait until she spits blood because the acids have eaten thru her esophagus(sp?) ....
 
I know what you mean, Sasha.  It really does show no brains.  

I used to be a dental assistant and you could always tell the bulimic patients because all their tooth decay was on the back side of their front teeth from the stomach acids eating away at them.

What's funny is they think they are being so discreet.  The only people who make that many trips to the bathroom are either vomiting or doing drugs.  -And if they're doing drugs, then most likely they don't have an appetite for the food in the first place.

Sasha,
You seem like a bitter jealous woman.  You sound envious of the girlfriend.  You should pity rather than try to belittle girls such as you described because they have no self-worth outside of appearance.  Lighten up.
 
first "You sound envious of the girlfriend"
  girlfriend... errrrr.. wrong answer.. no clue who she was.. director brought her to the shoot...
envious.. errrrr... wrong again......

second... "You seem like a bitter jealous woman"
.. of what .. everytime i eat.. running to a bathroom to throw up.. ... you read me totally wrong on that one yet again  ..

third ".  You should pity rather than try to belittle girls such as you described because they have no self-worth outside of appearance. "
..... you know what.. i have dealt with people like that.. it is a load of crap.. i will not have pitty for someone that self inflicts things upon themselves... i have had that for some people and it is a waste of time.....selfworth.. that is exactly what it is .. "self" key word... it comes from within ones self.. that is nothing that can be given to someone..

i was not belittling her.. yes laughing at her(so was everyone else there that knew what she was doing..).. i think it is ridiculus.. but bigdaves post which is pretty much about the dumb things they say is not belittling.. hummm............

when people put up a front like that.. trying to make it seem as though they(themselves or their lives...) are  perfect.... it makes me laugh...



"Lighten up."

NEVER>>>> it is called survial of the fittest dear..

natural selection..
the strong shall survive...  
the weak shall die...


sasha
 
Mikal, if your post was sarcastic (which is the only way I can see it ... who would defend a plastic, bullimic person like that girl on the shoot?) then you should make a note of it somewhere on your post ...

The rule: if you act like an ass, expect to be treated like an ass. Directed at Ms. Regurgitation , of course. <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://musclechemistry.mantisforums.com/IB3/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->
 
Woah! ... talk about some heat in this thread! .... see what u started Big Dave? ...  j/k ... as far as that's concerned... seriously.. there's no excuse except for insecurity, weakness, low self esteem, and did i mention weakness!!  

If there's one trait I can't stand in a woman is a weak, timid personality...  seriously... someone who is submissive in life... is submissive in business, love, conversation, personality.. and overall .. just a weak, boring person .. who basically is there for no real reason of other then to waste space...

as far as being bitter .. i doubt sasha is bitter..  she seems extremely confident in herself.. her info is strong as well as her physique and goals..  

I've been friends with.. and even dated a bulemic (sp) .. and ya know what.. it sucks... but it truely wasn't worth my time in the long run... i'm still friends w/ her... well kinda, ... well not really anyore... (was friends w/ my ex)... but it's sad to see how she would do the things she did.. and then wonder why she couldn't get men.. or why she wasn't respected ... (not to get off on a tangent.. but maybe if her self esteem was higher, and she wasn't so weak, then maybe she wouldn't have slept w/ men on the first date to try to get thier acceptance) ...   i dunno..   one thing i do agree w/ sasha on...

Survival of the fittest...     ... i say fuck em all..  let God sort em out..  (harsh but true... it's more my business philosphy... ) ... no time for weakness in anything.

####... sorry.. dunno where all this shit stemmed from.. i'm off now..  
 
It seems I have struck a nerve with miss sasha.  BTW-what is "survial of the fittest"?  Perhaps you meant survival.
 
are you a moddel to mikal? oh btw (short for :by the way), when i write moddel i acctually mean model....

tiny
 
When you say "lighten up", Mikal....what?...You mean like you??
:::choking on the irony of your suggestion:::

LOL

survival... hey it was 3am  ....   see how you spell...
