There is one feature about my mother I don’t talk about often. It’s a trait that annoyed me as a child. She had no respect for people who wouldn’t follow her whims. She would more often than naught treat clerks badly. It was a “spoiled rich” mentality. She would be mean and she would climb the food chain until she got what she demanded.
I don’t like to identify with my mother as mostly everyone who knows me knows.
However.
You do not screw with me or those close to me. Especially those close to me. The difference between me and my mother is that it takes me a lot of consideration before I cross the line into the attack.
When I do find myself crossing this line it is a side of me that I let out in full force. I have no qualms about bringing in the absolute darkest sides of myself and taking down anyone that gets in the way.
To me it becomes war. To me it becomes the challenge of putting what is right back to where it should be.
Is it irrational… I don’t know. I hope not. I know when to walk away from a fight and more often than naught it has been far long after those around me have told me to stop. But in many of the cases that I have been told that I’m taking it too far… I have wound up being correct and winning.
And to me it’s not a question of winning, it’s a question of fighting the fight with everything I have until my perceptions are changed.
The point is for me. The battle is now on. I have a fight that I have been forced into. For better or worse, it is my nature. (Hell 5 signs in Aries including Sun, Ascendant, and Saturn…)
“Never start a fight, but always finish it.”
I am Aries, I am Ares, I am Shiva
I have no patience for systems that are broken and refuse to be fixed.
Edit:2005.06.16: This post was friends only. It is now public. I can’t find a good reason that it should be kept from general consumption.
About a year and a half ago I got into a huge battle with this bill collection agency, which I won’t go into great detail about, but essentially, their outsourced phone help made an error on a check by phone payment from me, thus making me bounce about 8 checks and costing me $200. Their response when I called was, you can’t prove it, so it isn’t our problem. I made myself a complete annoyance, complete with letters to the State AG and the Better Busineess Bureau, which eventually resulted in me getting a check for the amount of the fees I had racked up bouncing checks due to their error. It is very satisfying to win a battle with a faceless beauracracy. Tiring, but worth it in the end. Nothing wrong with fighting it, either.

Do you need a hug??
Please reread the tone of the above posting
Do you really want a direct answer to your question?
No insult meant at all
The general idea was that the post above was written in basically a warlike and destructive state. The mind set was to destroy anything. The best suggestion is to help revel in the warlike mindset of wanton destruction 😉
Again, no insult meant 😉
Re: No insult meant at all
Ok then! 🙂
No apologies necessary. Many of us whom are calm under most circumstances will become advisaries one would never wish to meet when someone we love or care about is hurt or threatened.
Whatever the situation is, I hope victory is yours and they will think twice before ever messing with those whom are yours again.
whatever brought this on, strike hard & low, Brother! The Ohio King Test ™ works best for me — a good swift kick the shins will quickly prove whether or not your adversary be a king. Deliver whatever sort of “kick to the shins” may be appropriate. And I’ll send ya hugs anyway 😉
