Facebook is the spawn of evil and I refuse to have it despite being begged endlessly by friends. Mostly for the reasons Jen highlighted, it has its uses but I much prefer picking up the phone and calling a friend or meeting them. It suits some people, just not me I’m afraid.

im sure if you look hard enough cosy your life isnt so bad hun, life throws us all a curved ball from time to time, the trick is to throw it back and live your life, we could only be here once xxxxx

I really like that analogy Cath about throwing the ball back xx :D

No matter who you are, there will always be someone better off or worse off than you. Most things can be improved, it’s finding the strength to change and sometimes it’s just not possible at the time.

Hope he recovers soon xxxx

Not forgetting the vast numbers of civilians killed so far by this “War on Terror”. Saddam Hussain was a ruthless leader. It doesn’t give anyone else the right to enter the country and inflict the same on Iraqi people just trying to live their lives. The documentation on WikiLeak sums up the disregard for human life and those who are caught up in something that they never asked for in the first place.

eeeek I have this argument everytime someone belittles haggis :) Beacuse I am Scottish, folks assume its my Staple diet. I always ask ” do you eat at macdonalds”? least we know whats in haggis. !

=D>

Amazing how people will readily eat processed food with no real clue how it was made or what is contained, but show them a haggis recipe and they refuse to eat it. I am willing to bet if someone took a haggis recipe, turned the mix into burgers without the sheeps stomach, people would happily eat it. Then tell them what they just ate. :wink: :lol:

Chicken McNuggets®:

White boneless chicken, water, food starch-modified, salt, chicken flavor (autolyzed yeast extract, salt, wheat starch, natural flavoring (botanical source), safflower oil, dextrose, citric acid, rosemary), sodium phosphates, seasoning (canola oil, mono- and diglycerides, natural extractives of rosemary). Battered and breaded with: water, enriched flour (bleached wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), yellow corn flour, food starch-modified, salt, leavening (baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, calcium lactate), spices, wheat starch, whey, corn starch. Prepared in vegetable oil ((may contain one of the following: Canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, hydrogenated soybean oil, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, partially hydrogenated corn oil with TBHQ and citric acid added to preserve freshness), dimethylpolysiloxane added as an antifoaming agent). CONTAINS: WHEAT AND MILK

Myths and Facts:

Myth: 56% of the nugget is corn

Fact: This figure counts meat from corn-fed chickens

Myth: A tiny percentage is actually lighter fluid (for freshness!)

Fact: The chemical sprayed on the nuggets for freshness is TBHQ -an antioxidant derived from petroleum. It is in question as far as whether it’s considered a type of butane but is defined as such in the Consumer’s Dictionary of Food Additives. Ingesting five grams of TBHQ can kill.

Save the cash and make your own with fresh ingredients.

Sometimes i wonder why i even look at the boards , the Nastiness , and cruel things that people post , especially in this kind of thread shocks me to the core .

And, i am stunned that Pixel’s posts have not been removed.

I second that. Her point has been made, and yet the picture of a premature baby remains on ths site. Now I understand that the picure had been posted on the www and was therefore effectively fair game, but in this context I find it disturbing. Please could the pictures be removed.

I have removed the images myself there is no reason for them to remain now, I had to post them to prove my point, that has been achieved. Apologies to those who found them upsetting.

I agree that this thread should remain, not only to serve as a reminder that deception is very easy, we are all human and we take things at face value. We believe what we are told, we form friendships that come to mean as much to us online as in real life, and with those friendships, whether online or offline, sometimes lies are told. None of us are perfect, we all have our flaws and traits that make us who we are. That’s what makes each of us unique, the human spirit is also one of forgiveness. People will never forget this, it will circulate this site for a long time to come. Each time the story is remembered, people will add their own version, because thats how it goes.

Losing someone is hard enough, the feelings and emotions over the past few days will subside, anger will turn to remembering the good moments among it all.

Behind the name Stephi, is a human being, never forget that. A confused, scared and a person thats alone. Who most likely never set out to deceive anyone in the beginning. But found herself doing so. Underneath that charade is a good person, who I hope will admit to the truth. Just so that this chapter can be closed and people can move on, knowing what they all long to know.

It is a legal requirement for all deaths to be registered within 5 days. So therefore by now her death, if it so be, will be on public record by Tuesday at the latest. The funeral directors name will also be available. If this information isn’t forthcoming, then sadly, it was all a charade.

I expected to be vilified, but I could not let this go on knowing what I knew, and if you read this thread thoroughly, I think the answers you seek already lie within this thread. The truth is among these pages, if you look hard enough, for some, its already painfully obvious.
