I'm not kidding. I'm serious! I'm pretty sure she's a damned bear.

Below is a copy of a PM that I sent to a user of Voat, though I've typed about it in public before. I'm telling you, she's a bear...

You said you wanted to hear...

I didn't realize she was a bear when I started dating her. No, no I did not. I should have seen the signs.

  1. Loves blueberries.
  2. Loves honey.
  3. Loves picnic baskets.
  4. Loves donuts.
  5. Forages for food.
  6. Loves fish.
  7. Shaves off her fur.
  8. As you'll see, is inherently dishonest!

See, I brought her to help in the blueberry fields. I set her down with a pail and a patch of berries. She was going to "hand pick." By 10:00, her fingers were blue. So wasn't her face.

She told me she hadn't been eating the berries. I laughed and pointed out her bucket was pretty much empty.

At noon, she complained of a sore belly but "hadn't eaten that many berries."

By two, she was waddling around the field in a sugar daze. Just free-range gorging herself on berries, having discovered the secret to finding the ones that tasted best to her.

The whole way home, she complained of a belly ache - but "hadn't eaten that many berries."

That still didn't clue me in.

As we see from Yogi T. Bear, he always lied to the Ranger. He was a picnic basket stealing bear, and then he'd lie about it!

So, using that as my guide, I have figured it out.

I brought home like 50 pounds of berries and we put 40 pounds up and planned on using 10 pounds fresh. A few days later, all those berries were gone. She DENIED eating them. I know I didn't eat them. She denies it.

Thus, she's a blueberry stealer and, worse, she lies about it! Horrible!

So, I've concluded she's a bear. Further evidence suggests she's a retired circus bear that shaves her fur off to blend in with humans, 'cause there's not exactly a lot of job opportunities now that the circuses are all gone.

She can't help but lie about having eaten the berries. She's inherently dishonest. That's what bears do!

She's a damned bear!

So, like I said, she's a damned bear! If I'd known she was a bear, I wouldn't have started dating her in the first place. Now that I'm a bear keeper, I just can't kick her out. Bears don't have many employment opportunities. It's not like they have opposable thumbs!

If you're ever in Rangeley, Maine and you see an older lady driving a green Subaru - check to see if she has blueberry stains. If she does, she's a bear. Also, tell her she's a horrible blueberry stealing liar. I'm pretty sure she's a bear.

Pretty sure.

You never cease to amaze me, someone needs to write a biography on you becuase I want to read it. I suppose to some extent that is happening on line. It’s awesome that you took those people in as family not all that long ago that was me and my family living in a trailer with no water or septic in the winter with no heat, i eventually sent the wife and kids to live at my in laws for a few months while I saved enough to get us an apartment working a shit retail job. Despite my skill set I was in an area I had no contacts and no knowledge of what companies around here could use me but a couple years later I head up my department even if it may not last all that long now. If someone had done anything like that for me I don’t know how I would handle it I don’t have any family really they disowned me because of my values, parents thought I should be divorced and I wasn’t having it. So I’m sure those kids will always for the rest of their lives remember what you did and hopefully go on to pay it forward enough people in the world think that way and poverty and hunger would actually be solved. So thank you for being a step towards solving the worlds problems you are leaving it a better place than you found it. Sorry for the wallotext

I'm not averse to a wall of text. I'm quite used to it.

It was a case of not being able to help everyone - but also not being able to not help these people. (Given that I'm Micmac and the family is white, that's made it a point to not discuss it with some folks.)

Guess what I just did?

I did successful surgery on myself. I'm not even kidding.

I had one of those weird neck cyst things that was hard. I could have gone to the doctor but I have everything here. I poked it for a few days - to make sure it was hard and would swell a little. It did. I then cut the skin over it with a razor blade and got the gun out.

Hmm... Lemme take a pic. This is disgusting - I want to show it to you. (It's not that bad.)

Here, probably not kid safe and just a pic from my cell phone:

(You don't have to look, it's not that disgusting.)

That is impressive and mildly disturbing. It must have been painful. Did you use a local?

I thought about mixing some coke with saline but said to hell with it. I ain't scared. It went fine. I know what I'm doing.

It's connected with butterfly stitches and a bandaid covering it. The incision is on 1/2" long. It's not bleeding. The area was well-prepped. I've done worse. I've done worse to myself. I've given full-on stitches to a friend - he'd a giant gash, with meat hanging out, in his leg. We were many, many miles and wouldn't be back in a town for like three days. So, I stitched him.

Note: I helped my daughter learn to do stitches and I helped a girlfriend learn.

I'm not that kind of doctor, but four of us dissected a human cadaver at school. I'm pretty comfy saying I could maybe perform a basic surgery and not kill you. If the weather is good, the nearest hospital is about 1.5 hours away. I'd give you a tracheotomy! I even know how to place one!
