That's great! I'm not a member of Facebook yet, so this should
encourage me to join. Can someone point out to me the differences
between Facebook and MySpace? I can't remember why I haven't joined
Facebook yet.
I want to join the Looters Facebook group to give Poison (alias Zak)
some stick. This is because Poison/Zak is or was a member of a gang
which isolated me from a group, forcing me to leave LWA. This is a form
of bullying or harassment. To get a good idea why Zak and the others
(i.e. Sebbi, Black Panther, and Vike) would have done this, you should
try and read the book "Odd Girl Out" by Rachel Simmons, which you can
find details of on www.rachelsimmons.com . Unfortunately, this book is
very heavy going and it took me about a year to read it, after I
originally saw it featured on Oprah. I think there may be a short video
somewhere on the site which tells you the gist of it. The full title of
the book is "Odd Girl Out: The Hidden Culture of Aggression in Girls".
This tells the story of how girls at school form cliques or "cool
groups" to feel superior to other girls and harrass them. They also
often exclude a member from their group, sometimes just by the
ringleader saying "We don't talk to her anymore", leaving them isolated
with hardly any friends left. What it doesn't mention is that this
behaviour sometimes continues after leaving school and that boys and
men should be careful they don't hang round with a group of girls or
women like this, because they can never join this clique, but can be
isolated by it. I think someone should make a film based on this book,
so more people can get the message instead of giving up after reading
about two pages. I think the TV series "Popular" http://www.tv.com/popular/popular-round-one-1/episode/2214/summary.html?
tag=ep_list;title;0 was based on this kind of thing, but I didn't watch
it, especially because it seemed one of the main bullies was blonde,
but in real life a lot of or most of the ringleaders have red hair. The
phrase "She's popular" or "She's very popular" whenever or wherever you
hear it means "She's a bully" or "She's not only a bully, but the
ringleader". I hope to read the follow up book "Odd Girl Speaks Out",
but I don't know if I'll live long enough!
Big news! I've just found out that there's already a film called "Odd
Girl Out", which seems to be based on this book. You can order it
from www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com and here's exactly where to
find it.
Unfortunately, this DVD is coded in NTSC, so you'll probably have to
play it on your computer.
I thought I should also mention that Poison/Zak likes joining all
female groups and going to nightclubs which discriminate against men
in any of various ways, such as "all men must be accompanied by a
woman". This is actually against the law, but not enough has been
done about it yet. She also seems to think that any woman she meets
who has red hair is autmomatically her leader and she'll do whatever
they tell her to.
BTW, Chesh was also involved in isolating me from the group, but I
forgot to mention this before, because she wasn't actually there on
the night that things came to a head, but posted nasty messages to me
in LWA after that.

Blue Unicorn ??
I know a Crazy Unicorn...
...Who married one of the Jems.
It's a shame that this group looks like it'll migrate to Facebook after being
here for such a
long time...
...Facebook is such a load of wank, and has very dodgy privacy issues.
C'est la vie,
Peter

I don't know. I get busy for a few weeks and someone tries to hijack
the community.
