Next time I’ll put your ass directly in JAIL where you belong! I’ve been regretting not calling the cops on you and submitting the surveillance tape of your heckling, which earned you a good ass kicking right up until some guy jumped in. Obviously you didn’t learn the first time. You want to “go” again.
This is how your idiot “friends” should be able to tell everything coming out of that ugly mouth of yours is a lie. Yes, you started the fight and I FINISHED IT. Get over it! You lost! I wasn’t the one holding my face and rying at the end of the night. Telling people you kicked my ass is simply confirmation of that fact. If you had done all the ass kicking then you wouldn’t be calling me on, you’d be bragging.
You want revenge and I sure hope you think, even for a moment, that you ought to try and take it because I’ll not make the same mistake twice. You’re a criminal and you belong in JAIL and I’m MORE than happy to arrange it so you just keep it up. Keep it up.
Listen bitch, if that guy hadn’t stepped in you’d still be in hospital nursing the broken jaw you deserve… anything to keep your fucking lips from flapping! You deserve what you get and I’ll be more than happy to be there to testify against you.

Great tag
Pathetic loser overdosing on testosterone would be a more appropriate tag.
sounds like the underdog is barely containing themselves. Who woulda thunk it? Pushed over the edge? Here? In the HRM? Yet another Nova Scotian bitch in the making… or is that the dreaded “rat”? Classic.
For someone who claims to be so disturbed by the rate of violence in Halifax, you seem to quite frequently advocate its use as a problem-solving technique, Kay.
Dude, take a piss…. relax…… re…. lax…..
in a fight, no-one really wins. you’re both kinda stooooopid for not being able to find a better way to solve this….. the smartest guy is the one that doesn’t need to fight to get his way.
meow, please qualify this, “[kay] quite frequently advocate[s] violence”
In this case it seems clear the OP was defending themselves and, if that’s case, there’s no choice not to fight because it’s already begun. There’s only a choice to win or lose. I can’t say anything negative toward the OP who’s not posing as a victim. The OP has decided to call police should it happen again. Seems like a valid bitch and a valid problem solving approach to me. Forgive me if I’m not surprised to see another bitch born in Nova Scotia.
Kay,
We all know that Halifax, Nova Scotia isn’t where you want to be.
But really, don’t you think if this exact same kind of forum were run in an Edmonton or Calgary weekly that the bitches there would mostly be of the same kind we see here?
I don’t think theft, rudeness, bad relationships, stupid situations, idiot workplaces, etc. are unique to this part of the world.
I lived many years in Alberta and encountered the full spectrum of people: good, bad, brilliant, incompetent, and everything in-between.
I don’t even dislike Alberta—it has many things to recommend it. I just have a life here now, with a job, family and friends that I am very content with. If YOU have not yet found contentment in your life, you will have to keep working at making the necessary changes—you being the kind of gal who doesn’t like to play the victim, right?
I don’t think that EVERY single bitch and/or comment requires the “typical of Nova Scotia” tag that you seem to think they deserve.
Honestly, I enjoy a lot of your posts. I just think you should vary your responses once in a while so this forum doesn’t become too boring or predictable.
Kay, you’re an idiot. A person can use many types of self-defence as a means NOT to fight. Even if a person is attacked first – its assault, not a fight. A fight happens once both (or more) parties involved physically scrap it out.
Take karate for example: we study so we do not have to fight. I’ve seen several black belts (and non-black belts; and other styles) walk away from “fights” before (and after) the fight happened.
And you’re not a UFC chick so I’ll await a witty retort where you tell me to go live under a rock.
Why should the average Joe have any knowledge of self defense methods designed to restrain rather than to deliver debilitating, potential life-saving pain? It’s an unreasonable expectation to expect anything other than carnal reaction to violent physical confrontation. Even most women’s self defense courses teach you how to break a nose and crush a set of balls so I disagree. The average joe is armed with the fight or flight instinct and “fight” does not mean stroke ’em till they lay down purring. Flight is usually the better choice but if you’re all ready engaged… if I were the OP and I was capable of ending the fight by breaking a nose or something severe I’m sure I wouldn’t think twice about it and neither would you, Fat. I think the question is do you follow through, see them into the back of a cruiser and allow the law to do it’s thing?
Ruby, you have a look at the per capita statistics on violent crime in this city and you’ll see big city news reported from small town NS on an above-average rate. If you add the homeless and under-poverty-line demographic then compare you’ll see NS is unusually needy. Be a fresh face with a softer, kinder experience with their neighbours and you too would be disappointed with the crass attitudes. I’m not saying it can’t change. Big business is coming here and bringing their employees with them. I was once recruited here. Plenty of new faces to look forward to.
Kay, I’d sooner use a standing-side-choke or a key lock or circle blocks and a simple kick to the knee.
Even karate came from mere farming techniques…
Kay I AM (usually) a fresh-faced, kind person. Really. And my friends are nice, decent, fun, smart, interesting people too.
And I am VERY aware of the crime statistics, the poverty and the isolation of certain communities in this province.
And yes, I DO encounter nasty stupid people with crass attitudes: EVERYWHERE. Here in Nova Scotia, back “home” in AB, in other provinces, in the states, and in other countries.
I have repeated many times on this forum that, because of my past career, I KNOW the evil that people (everywhere) are capable of, and how far it is possible to fall down the social scale. I ALSO know the GOOD people can do as well. Really, people are capable of incredible things, if you let them surprise you.
I can’t explain why our experiences in this city have been so different. I guess it’s just the opportunities I have had, and the people I am fortunate to know here that have made my experience of living here overwhelmingly positive, and why I have no desire to move to one of the “wealthier” provinces.
It’s not high salaries or shiny new buildings that motivate me, I guess. If I needed that, certainly I could move to Calgary or Houston or Dubai or wherever. But I don’t want to live in those places—as cool as they are. I am interested in things that go deeper than their surface appearance, and Nova Scotia rewards me on that level every day.
I still believe that Halifax and Nova Scotia could grow on you if you gave it more of a chance.
This post was ghetto.
Kay, I know you’ve been asked this question before, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen you answer it, so I’m going to throw it out there again:
If you despise Halifax and its residents so much, what on earth keeps you here?
Your husband is a successful musician. That line of work can be done from anywhere. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve read posts where you’ve put down Halifax’s music scene, so it would stand to reason your hubby would be better off elsewhere. You’re an IT professional. As far as I know, there are computers all over the world.
Your hatred of Halifax, this province, and the people who live here appears to be all-consuming – hence the need to reiterate your feelings almost every day. Which is why most of us can’t fathom why you stay here. Masochism?
The world is your oyster.
OP is surprisingly literate for being a member of the lower classes. Ugh.
Desi, get over me… snap it up.
Ruby, you haven’t got a clue but you just believe whatever you want… like the higher than average per capita rate of violence meaning I just haven’t given this place a chance. For all you know I could be the OP doing just that.
Commoner, your presumption is unfounded. One does not need to be from the ghetto to defend themselves effectively. One just needs to have a sense of self preservation (or be a farmer like Fat here)
Jennie, I stay because I have opportunity to bring relief to a number of very helpful charities who could be much more effective with resources and companies like mine assisting them. For a while I was “stuck” here given a shitty economy but now I’m making a difference in most troubled times. And you’re right. My husband can do his thing anywhere… precisely how he ended up here in the first place. I’ve been apologizing ever since.
See Kay, this is why these conversations always go off track.
Not every person who disagrees with you is necessarily clueless, stupid or backward. That line of reasoning that only serves to shut down any possibility of meaningful dialog.
Look. You know I can’t reveal here who I work for, but suffice it to say it is my job to be very informed about many of these issues. I KNOW that the violence, poverty, etc. that you refer to are no laughing matter.
I also know that they are extremely complicated, and that there is no easy, magical solution that will make all of them disappear overnight. (God, if only there was!)
I presume you have read up on the history that has led to some of the present-day situations, and you also know that this province doesn’t have any easily accessible oil sand to dig up to instantly bring us billions of dollars that could admittedly go a long way. (Besides, I grew up with that industry, so I know it introduces other, different social and environmental problems—many as problematic and intractible as what you describe about old-school NS.)
You say you have ideas you want to introduce in the community—great! By all means, get out there and participate. Maybe we will cross paths.
And, Kay, if you read my extended rant earlier this year about a certain other East Coast city, you will know that I am not a pollyanna—I don’t have any love for certain attitudes, certain ways of life, that I see in certain kinds of people in certain places, any more than you do. There are in fact, many areas where we agree.
It’s not that there aren’t things (here and elsewhere) that are damned frustrating, it’s just that there are better ways of responding to these problems than an overplayed tape-recording of “it’s-so-typical-of-backward-Nova-Scotia-that…”
I think you will have better luck with people here if you dropped the “everyone else but me is an idiot” routine and started recognizing that others may in fact have valid points of view on their own lives.
Even though this is a bitching forum, I have noticed many genuine attempts from other posters to reach out to you, to engage in an actual discussion about your experiences here in Halifax. You respond with such vitriol that I actually fear for your health.
Good luck to you and your husband, wherever to decide to make your home.
“One does not need to be from the ghetto to defend themselves effectively. “
-no you’re right Kay…so where did you learn to call people “Fucking CUNTS”???
sorry….ewwww I don’t even like typing that word….
Ruby, you are so kind, be prepared to be shit on, trust me, Kay does not deserve your good wishes…
Of course I learned that word HERE, lulu. Ask the bitches! …usually a very effective conversation stopper when used in correct context, which it was…. intended to stop the conversation.
Oh, yeah, never heard THAT word in Alberta!
Oh, no, there’s NEVER any swearing or bad manners there!
Now . . . “arse,” I would agree, is more of an East Coast word that one wouldn’t necessarily hear much out West.
I have, however, found it a useful one to know . . .
I prefer sophisticated conversation stoppers – the one’s spoken from the top of the alimentary canal are much classier than those uttered from it’s end.
“bigger lost”, huh? *insert fat eye-roll”*
Does anybody EVER take this guy seriously? What a waste of bandwidth.
hey ruby, you should spend another day in my archives and see what the bitches do to you when you protest the use of that word. I tried it once. Now I use it quite carefully and quite on purpose because this is the language the bitches understand. Get it?
Hey everybody! Not only did kay totally miss a perfectly grammatical turn of phrase (“bigger lost CAUSE”), but she says her eyes are fat!
Sorry, I couldn’t resist…
And people take YOU seriously, kay? Your posts are a mix of Three Stooges meets Donald Duck meets Peppermint Patty! But, you’re on some amazing booze and/or drugs and somehow believe you’re making valid points and that everyone should agree with you.
You’ve been called on your nonsense so many times and its the same thing with you: “everyone’s jealous of me!” or “typical Haligoons!” or “typical Bluenosers!” or “get over me!”
If not that, you’ll just merely try and make someone else look/feel stupid and its so elementary school-yard of you. You’re in your 40s, woman, grow the fuck up and take the rose-stem out of your urethra. Thats right, I know you have a dick too!
Actually Fat, I’m just on topic.. I know, that’s very strange for you to comprehend and I don’t blame you for thinking this must mean my pee pee is all fucked up (I feel so sorry for you). Why don’t you give the k-bashing a lifetime rest and simply bitch on the post? Why not?
Kay, it’s that you seem to only have two opinions in your repertoire: you reject all contrary points of view with either “you are clueless” or “typical Nova Scotian” — even when people respond to you in a civilized manner.
You are the one complaining that no one in NS is “friendly” but you are the one who lashes out at everyone who attempts to engage you in legitimate discussion.
You complain that everyone you meet in Halifax is an arm-wresting biker chick “jealous” of your sexy body, or they are ignorant rubes not smart enough to comprehend your unique intellectual brilliance.
Seriously, you are at risk of having a brain aneurysm if you don’t rein in your anger.
Yes, I come to LTWWB to BITCH. Put that in the equation summing up kay and see where it gets ya
Kay hath spoken. She need not jest.
We ALL do.
But the comments section can be used for more expanded discussion, you know.
so why did you pick the name Desi, huh? 100% of your posts have to do with me so you can’t blame Fat for noting you’re stalking me.
I love the way we bitch. I do I do!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, STALKING YOU, KAY? ARE YOU FOR-FUCKING-REAL?!
God damn, woman, you are on some SERIOUS drugs and/or alcohol. Or, you’re on some medication while doing narcs and booze and its causing you even more serious mental issues.
Someone who doesn’t know you or met you is “STALKING” you on LTWWB? Get-a-fucking-life and PLEASE stop playing the victim for once. Its funny how you do the exact same shit to Oceanlady or HKM and you’re not a stalker but when Ruby merely disagrees with you or calls you a cunt, she’s somehow a “stalker”.
Fuck sakes, woman, get off the pills and booze and go spend time with your family that we hear so much about.
Oh wait, I guess I’m off the board now. So long Dino, PK, shoe_chick, Dr. Fever, Bro Tim, nevermind, never wrong, fizz, etc.
