When a new female comes into the chat-room, she suddenly creates a powerful magnet-like effect, three males are already probably pming her, asking her about her vitals AKA ASL (age, sex, location), these males are desperate, but none more desperate than Shammes.Shammes, a man in his 50s, finds out everything he can about her, takes the information, files it away and proceeds to romance her, ply her with little love words and makes numerous passes at her. What woman could not resist such words and actions?
Desperate women; women, whose boyfriends or husbands don’t treat them well or give them the respect they deserve. Shammes, in many ways is like Les. He loves power and needs to have control of the situation, otherwise, he too will pout and like Les, his harem of women will coo and soothe him because they don’t want to see their “Virtual Daddy” upset. No doubt these women enjoy being submissive; they know no other way how.
Shammes’ behavior is indicative of his profession, that of being a lawyer. I’ve had a number of run-ins with Shammes, including the time he tried using his profession as a badge of authority in acting like a self-appointed chat-room monitor and I outed his deceit. He’s disliked me ever since. Can’t say I blame him, but slick attorneys like Shammes are a dime-a-dozen in my book. For some reason I’ve always equated lawyers to liars, cheats and con-men. Is it any wonder I trust them? By the way, Shammes is married, has a couple of grown kids and lives in Portland, Oregon.
One of these women who has been victimized by Shammes is Zisapunim. She’s a bit older and considers herself very funny and yet loves to flirt with every male that arrives like a stranger into the chat-room, whether she knows them or not. Zisapunim considers herself to be the matriarch of the chat-room, because she is one of the one of the first chatters that arrived in the chat-space and also, was a regular chatter in the previous carry-over room from five years earlier. She considers herself a regular, due to the fact that she is in the chat-room, morning, noon & night.
Zisapunim has changed her name a few times. At first she called herself Jackie, and then changed it to Grandma Jackie, then to Hot-Lips, then to Daffy Duck and a few other names before she settled on her current screen-name. Zisapunim is good friends with Shammes. She even met her abuser over a year ago in her own home country with his wife in tow. A little awkward you would think, but it’s apparently one big secret.
Zisapunim has enough information on other chatters to write a great big book. She gossips privately and publicly about others who enter the chat-room, primarily about their good and bad habits. That’s called loshen hora; ain’t nothing else, but pure and evil. Loshon hora can be used as a weapon if someone like Zisapunim knows what they are doing with it. I imagine that Les took some private lessons from Zisapunim.
Zisapunim publicly says she “would never tangle with me, for I’m too clever.” She likes using flattery on me all of the time. She thinks I will buy into it. I don’t. Publicly and privately, she curses at me when I make her look bad. Zisapunim wants to appear to be friendly; most people would want that reputation too, so they could be remembered that way before they die. Zisapunim is 83, been married for over 50 years and lives in Canada.
There always seems to be a festive atmosphere whenever Gemini enters the chat-room. Gemini is a rock-and-roll party girl who loves disco music, America, American president George W. Bush Jr. and alcohol. Alcohol is her best friend, perhaps more than she realizes at times. Perhaps she drinks to forget or maybe she drinks to remember how good things can be once she is lit up like a Sabbath candle on Friday evenings.
Gemini likes to know where everyone who ever enters the chat-room is from. Anyone who does not agree with her, she calls “a nut.” Her husband Eric, who she describes as a sports fanatic is a great guy, she says. Perhaps he is or perhaps that’s just the alcohol talking. Anytime anyone comes out against President Bush’s policies or administration, she immediately types the refrained lyrics of Bruce Springsteen’s “Born In The USA.” It makes her proud to feel that she is an American. Maybe it’s the alcohol talking again.
Gemini uses two other names; her Hebrew name is Kaila and a red-neck name, Amy Sue. Like Les, Gemini is a racist and hates Blacks, Muslims, Arabs and any other skin color that isn’t pure white nor Jewish. Les and Gemini ought to start a Jewish branch of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) and recruit members within the chat-room; I bet they will find plenty of sympathasizers, just like the folks that sympathized with the Nazis during WWII.
Every year when it gets close to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Gemini professes to be a stalwart Jew and a supporter of Israel. It must be the alcohol talking, because the rest of the year, she behaves like Sybil, you know the case study of a woman with 16 different personalities all rolled into one person?
Gemini and I don’t get along, based on my choice of politics and whom I choose to support in my life. She will often tell me that I’m a nut, I’m not Jewish, that I need to get laid and that I have no friends in the chat-room. When I tell her that her best friends are Mr. Booze and Miss Alcohol, she leaves rather hurriedly, as if I spoke out of turn.
Gemini is 47, jobless, with no responsibilites and lives in New Jersey. Need I say more?
This following story is true; no names have been protected to hang the guilty. It seems like all the right elements to make a good religious cult, but it also sounds a bit like a soap opera on television or cable, right?
No!
Afraid not!
Welcome to the world of http://www.jewishstreet.com/, an Internet Jewish chat-room on the world-wide web, where real lives play out like some big bad soap opera, day in, day out. Quite frankly, it’s pathetic and downright hilarious, too! So friends, until the next installment, give the room a visit, won’t you?
