no quarter asked, none given

What is, for you, not on the table for compromise, no matter the circumstance or cost?

Interpret the question as you will.

Rhianne · 08-30-2011, 08:53 AM

Nothing.

Give me no quarter, I'll ask you no lies.

Led Zeppelin Covers. Not even by bands I like. You just can't improve perfection, so don't try.

Sundae · 08-30-2011, 11:51 AM

I'm with Rhianne.
Nothing.
Everything is open to discussion if the situation is extreme enough.

If someone touched my child in an inappropriate way I can't imagine any circumstance where I'd be able to compromise with that.

Hurt my dog and I will hurt you.

...actually, seriously, that probably is my redline. The thing absolutely not on the table at all, ever, is getting rid of the dog. If I was in a job that required me to travel and it became difficult to keep my dog, I'd give up the job. When me and J split up and I was looking for a place of my own whilst staying at Mum's, it took two years to find a place, because I absolutely had to have a place that allowed dogs.

When Pilau eventually shuffles off this mortal coil. I'll get another dog. And the same redline will apply. I have to have a dog in my life. It's a fundamental part of who I am.

What is an 'extreme enough' circumstance?

BigV · 09-22-2011, 09:15 AM

*shows up with plastic cup*

Hey, I heard there was some fermenting going on here.

Anyway, I have no idea what I could be capable of in extreme circumstances. I could be amazed at my resolve, or I could fold like a cheap suit. I hope I don't have to find out...but wouldn't it be a bit interesting to have your mettle tested?

Then I'd have a whole new reason to hate myself: insufficient mettle, to go along with my limited gumption.

footfootfoot · 09-22-2011, 05:28 PM

You would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for that mettle-ing insufficiency.
