What's up with Switched

[Switched]

Folks,

My apologies are extended to the group. I have not been myself lately, however the situation has been discussed in private with dad (Isaac). So if the bear seems grumpier than normal these days, please don't take it personally.

I try to be grumpy on a regular basis, that way it comes as no surprise to anyone, and I never have to apologize. It's just easier that way.

 

[Dusty_D]

Me too. That way, when I am nice, everyone says "oh what a nice surprise!" and when I'm grumpy they just say "eh, he's always that way!". Trade secret!!

Keeps people on their toes.

Take care, Switched.

You do have a point

Switched Grumpy? Never. He's a big teddy bear with a kind heart! We all know that.

Teddy bear? He's a polar bear, and they're some of the meanest creatures you'll ever meet. They'll rip your head off, man. Then they'll all sit over your mangled corpse drinking Coke and laugh their asses off.

That's not what the commercials say. Apparently all polar bears drink Coke.

When I first started posting on these forums I am gonna be honest, you made me kind of nervous to post in the same thread as you because I did not want to feel your wrath. I know that we have not had in depth conversations or anything but I have come to learn that you are sort of an acquired taste and one of the more knowledgeable people on these forums. So that being said, if there is a trade off of knowledge and grumpiness then I am fine with that.(as long as your not too mean lol). It's all good, everyone is a grump now and again.

 

[atavanhalen]

Sorry for second post but, also I have also realized that usually the people you call out need to be called out.

Nah, he's just trying to score some free poutine.

yeah they're mean...thats why when they were implimenting the seed vault in norway....a big part of the security they put in place is free roaming polar bear security guards...lol...if I had to sit in the snow all day hunting stupid seals I'd be mean and cranky too...

 

[Vaporologist]

Every time a bear makes a sound, it sounds like a growl. It easier to differentiate between those growls when you know their heart.

I didn't notice you were grumpy Switched. But just in case I found a new avatar for ya.

I'm new to browsing this group... but it takes a lot of character to post something like that. You are to be commended.

 

[grimmer255]

what? Switched grumpy? noooooo it can't be..... I just don't believe it.... you always have the best insights on a lot of things and you are one hell of a guy.... whatever it is that is making you feel bad, I know you will pull through it.... I hope everything will be okay.

Your never cease to amaze me my friend, I just now seen this thread. I know that we'll get to the root of this problem. You threw me off with your email by writing on the bottom again I do have something imperative to tell you and will write after this post. There's so many good comments here to miss

1st I Always been a Pepsi man! BUT Cherry Dr.Pepper rules them all!

Funniest post EVER!

Welcome HyOnLyph! Switcher really is genuine to the bone. He sometimes comes off as an angry person at first glance, as I'm told. (Still never seen it)but I think it's more of a misconception on some folks parts as he's never shy to speak his mind and also be there for the community to give the hard facts in attempt to educate, to teach as he knows best to. I believe he really is a milestone to Ecf and vital to helping our community to learn and grow together. To have him as a best friend is total honor, more than words can describe.

Sorry Isaac that is how my e-mail program writes replies by default. Just read your e, a reply is forthcoming as well.

Thanks folks. This post was indeed intended to let folks know that I have been bothered with something over the last week or so, and have been a little short at times. Yes I am an acquired taste For the folks that are accustomed to my writing style, maybe it wasn't so obvious. However, not everyone who reads my post are accustomed to the way I word things, and it is for those fine folks that this thread was started, in an attempt to offer some insight in the way this Polar Bear brain of mine works

Sometimes life makes me feel like I am just in a

and it won't stop.
Other times I just want to

everyone around me.
Switched, just keep being you and perhaps a little high nic or some snus (?) could help. The truth will set you free and you are one to live by the truth. So many times when we hold back from saying what we feel, it gets all tied up in knots inside of you until it comes bursting out. That can make for a real mess.
Hang in there Switched.
