UK Kat Von D Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Well the confusing part is after years of doing this the woman behind it all messaged me last night. She is American from what I can tell she there is no real danger but the law is confusing when it comes to that. Would be easier if she was UK based. Privacy isn't really an option at the point due to the amount of stuff I have across Instagram and tumblr. I try not to put too much personal stuff online but over the past five years there is obviously quite a bit built up already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patiirc Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Well the confusing part is after years of doing this the woman behind it all messaged me last night.

Privacy isn't really an option at the point due to the amount of stuff I have across Instagram and tumblr. I try not to put too much personal stuff online but over the past five years there is obviously quite a bit built up already  Fan page, yourself and then a private fb account with a different or altered name is the way forward. Many Uk wrestlers have done this of recent times, and US or not, would report it. two cases of contact, as in two fb messages, etc is considered unwanted harassment, sure may not be 'dealt' with, but at least your concerns are noted and documented, and you can gain control with your own page again.

Paid Members JNLister Posted October 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted October 12, 2015   CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WHO WERE BORN IN THE 1940's, 50's, 60's and 70's ! First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us and lived in houses made of asbestos.. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, raw egg products, loads of bacon and processed meat, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes or cancer. Then after that trauma, our baby cots were covered with bright coloured lead-based paints. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets or shoes, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking. As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags and we went round the streets on Go-carts made from old pram wheels & bits of wood. We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. Take away food was limited to fish and chips, no pizza shops, McDonalds, KFC or Subway. Even though all the shops closed at 6.00pm and didn't open on the weekends, somehow we didn't starve to death! We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this. We could collect old drink bottles and cash them in at the corner store and buy Toffees, Gobstoppers, Bubble Gum and some bangers to blow up frogs with. We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soft drinks with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because...... WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!! We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K. We would spend hours building our go-carts out of old prams and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. We built tree houses and dens and played in river beds with matchbox cars. We did not have Playstations, Nintendo Wii, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 999 channels on FOXTEL, no video/dvd films, no mobile phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms..........WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them! We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no Lawsuits from these accidents. Only girls had pierced ears! We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever. You could only buy Easter Eggs and Hot Cross Buns at Easter time... We were given catapults for our 10th birthdays, We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just yelled for them! Mum didn't have to go to work to help dad make ends meet! RUGBY, NETBALL and CRICKET had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! Getting into the team was based on MERIT Our teachers used to hit us with canes and gym shoes and bully's always ruled the playground at school. The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! Our parents didn't invent stupid names for their kids like 'Kiora' and 'Blade' and 'Ridge' and 'Vanilla' We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL! And YOU are one of them! CONGRATULATIONS! You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated our lives for our own good. And while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave their parents were  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted October 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted October 12, 2015 A friend of a friend updated FB last week to announce they'd gone for an MRI but were too big (fat if honest) for the machine and thus have to go to another hospital with a bigger machine. Would you share that? I wouldn't. I'd rather die than have anyone find that out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Kat Von D Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 The only reason kids aren't blowing up frogs anymore is because pet shops have clamped down on who they sell to. If you buy them too often the staff start to catch on and can refuse service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
