I'm reading Silence of the Lambs (I've also never seen the movie so this is my first time experiencing it) Every now and then this book just makes me go "why the fuck am I reading this." Most recently, the thing that caused that was Hannibal Lecter telling Clarice Starling that the reason Buffalo Bill is killing women is because [sp]he wants "a vest with tits on it."[/sp] [editline]a[/editline] Also unrelated, and I know I'm gonna get laughed at because of this shit, but all my friends have read Fifty Shades of Grey, and all of them have plans to go see it in theatres. But I'm not going to be 17 until March so I can't fucking go without the approval of my fanatically Christian mother. So, in short: I can't go.
suppose to get several inches of snow tonight...I just cleared a path to my wood supply for crying out loud!

I feel very deeply unattractive and unlikable.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;47214266]This is so untrue. Soemone who looks like a slob with greasy hair and gross clothes probably 99/100 times doesn't take care of themselves. Looks aren't just some thing, they tell a LOT about people.[/QUOTE] I think he means more judging people by their facial structure, which to be honest has nothing to do with your personality.
[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;47213804]I feel very deeply unattractive and unlikable.[/QUOTE] you're neither of those things
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;47214397]That's a really weird thing to judge people by, I've never even heard of that. "Wow, you're cheek bones are [I]so[/I] non-complementary!"[/QUOTE] Well obviously they don't say shit like that, but in general people assume more negative things of uglier people than they do of attractive people.
tbf if youre visibly unhygienic like greasy hair or yellowed teeth im not exactly going to assume the best of you

Regardless, March is only a few weeks away, surely they could wait it out for you? If not, just go to the theatre without her permission?
[QUOTE=J!NX;47212949]if you think your parents are bad for telling you to do the dishes you can't imagine the shit you're doing to get when you start working[/QUOTE] It's not about doing the dishes, it's that I have to do work that would be expected of me to do while my sister gets what's basically a free ride. And yes I know shit like that happens in the real world. Doesn't make it any less irritating. I think it honestly has something to do with my extroverted personality. At home, everything is so miserable and depressing and at such high tension, so I naturally feel miserable and depressed. At school I generally feel much better, if for no other reason than people are expected to do what's expected of them, and if they fall behind to the point where someone else has to pick up their slack, they're in deep shit for it. [QUOTE=Cabbage;47211219]Dude, no. You might be angry but you can't treat someone with a diagnosed mental illness like that. Imagine your sister is suicidally depressed 'ugh god all that [I]special attention[/I] she gets when will she do the dishes'. Have some respect[/QUOTE] I know that, that's why I said I [I]feel[/I] like calling her out instead of saying I'm [I]going[/I] to call her out. I just feel tossed to the side. Everyone else gets help with what's wrong with them but I get told to shut up and deal with it because every time I think about coming forth about my depression something else big is happening (as in, something else that is big is happening [I]all[/I] the time), so I feel like an asshole for even thinking about bringing my problems to the table while everyone else is sad or worried about something else, and every time I've tried to ease into a conversation about me being depressed I end up getting "that's life deal with it" and I don't want to talk any more. So the little things piss me off far more than they should, I admit it. Something as ridiculously minute as doing the dishes shouldn't bug me anywhere nearly as much as it does. But every time I try to talk to people about how all the little things that bug me more than they should and the bigger things that are more logical to get annoyed at mount up to the point where I lose sleep over it, all it ever is is "that's life deal with it" or "that's not even a real problem why are you depressed". Think of it like this. I have some kind of mental problem I don't know the name of where I need someone to acknowledge my achievements or my part in making something or I don't feel like I was worth anything to the project. I don't know what it is, I don't know why I feel like that, so I don't know how to fix it. Every time people get praised for something I helped do but I don't get acknowledged myself for my part, I feel like my part wasn't important. For some reason, I always think I'm not doing enough even when the end result is good and synergizes well with the rest of the group [I]unless someone acknowledges me or my part directly.[/I] Again, I don't know why my brain does that, but it does, and as someone who's an aspiring audio nut (one of the least acknowledged departments in the film industry), it comes up a lot. It's one of the big reasons I abandoned screenwriting; everyone wanted to talk about everyone's idea but mine, so I felt like I was getting zero shit accomplished. Now take relationships. Everyone minus one guy in my friend group is in a relationship, and they're all in relationships with each other. Meanwhile I'm sitting here single, never had a decent relationship in my life, and the prospects are not looking good. This, plus the above, contributes negatively to my self worth. Yes, I'm only 19 friggin years old, but everyone in my friend group is between 19 and 22, and goes on about the girlfriends they've had in the past and blah blah blah. As much as I'd like to sit back and shrug and say "I'm only 19, it's not like I'm going to find my soul mate less than a third of the way through my life", all this shit goes on around me and I feel like I'm missing out. All my friends minus the one spend 99% of their free time with their lovers, so I don't have much to do besides playing by myself on the computer. That one other friend's idea of a fun time by himself is doing weed and getting wasted drunk, by the way, so hanging out with him is somewhat out of the question because I don't do that. Now take my home life. My mum is co-dependant with her boyfriend, which is very annoying when she rants to me about how much she hates the way he treats her (he followed her to where she goes out for lunch because he was worried she was cheating on him; any male friends is an instant warning sign to him for some reason, etc), and despite all the shit he puts her through, she stays loyal as ever and it's toxic to myself and my sister. My sister gets away with shit I never would've at her age, and yes it's probably because of her anxiety, but like I mentioned before it doesn't make it less annoying. She's also got a serious attitude problem and any attempt to tell my mum "hey, my sister just told our 80-year-old grandmother to fuck off" just devolves into a my-word-against-hers shouting match that gets nowhere. Now because I'm an extrovert, being around all this negative energy passively affects me far worse than it would many other people, so my home life is miserable by default. The only release I have is videogames, because it's the one thing I can do that reliably keeps me entertained enough to keep the bad feelings at bay, so I get a good deal more annoyed than should be logical when I get told to do a bunch of menial chores while my sister gets to play video games all day with little to no responsibility and getting a light slap on the wrist. I am getting better though. Believe it or not I was far far worse than I am now. I used to go to bed crying every night because I felt so alone and miserable with all the shit going on and everything. I do think I'm getting better. I really just vent because bottling up all my frustration--however stupid the reason may be--just made me feel horrible about myself and I'd break down. It's gotten much better since I've become the dedicated audio guy of the group so I feel important, but that whole "needs approval" thing is still there and I'm trying to make it leave me the fuck alone.
The prices for snacks at my school are retarded. At the cafeteria, for an energy drink it's 3 bucks. For a cheap snack its like 1.50. they also charge you like 50 cents extra to use your debit card. Meanwhile at the bookstore, the energy drink is 2.50 and the snack is 75 cents, with no extra charge. WTF???
my cat shit on top of the fucking litterbox instead of in it
[QUOTE=AlexGT;47215293]my cat shit on top of the fucking litterbox instead of in it[/QUOTE] My cat like bags, and we use these plastic litter liners. So what she does is attacks the lining and then ruins it so there's turds on the actual litter tray, not in the litter. :v:
[QUOTE=Luxuria;47214424]tbf if youre visibly unhygienic like greasy hair or yellowed teeth im not exactly going to assume the best of you[/QUOTE] That's kind of a given really. When people say you shouldn't be judged by looks they more mean things you can't control, like your facial structure or something, which is a thing people who are shallow will tend to do.
Here's a real first world problem, I don't have anyone to learn/play WarmaHordes with. Anyone have Vassal?
Can anyone else not edit posts or use Go Advanced?
[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;47216812]Can anyone else not edit posts or use Go Advanced?[/QUOTE] think its having problems. i got 522 error
I get a blank textbox.
Capped for the next 7 days :|
I'm bullied by a kid and the only thing the school did was order a cease and desist between the two of us because he bullshitted and said I instigated a few confrontations.
[QUOTE=AlexGT;47215293]my cat shit on top of the fucking litterbox instead of in it[/QUOTE] I once stayed at someones house where they had these 2 old cats, sometimes they would take a shit right next to the litter box instead of inside, I have the feeling they did it on purpose.
Every time I cough my chest feels like someone's standing on it. A really fat person too
[QUOTE=Griffster26;47216961]I'm bullied by a kid and the only thing the school did was order a cease and desist between the two of us because he bullshitted and said I instigated a few confrontations.[/QUOTE] schools are absolute shit when it comes to handling bullies like, when i was just starting middle school one of the 8th graders gave me a titty twister right in front of the teacher and jack shit got done about it even after my dad confronted them, then later in the month the same kid tried to pick a fight with me in the hallway on the way to 2nd period. i put him in a headlock until someone broke us up, he got suspended for a day, and i got suspended for the entire week the guy got expelled the same year for selling weed in the bathrooms and he's a meth head now last i heard
I always get mad when someone is using M4A1-S in CS:GO, and I don't even know why.:tinfoil:
People tried to bully me as a kid but it never really stuck. They would try to call me names but i'd just be like "ok" and not really react to them so they stopped faily quickly since it would get boring for them. I think i was only properly bullied twice that effected me but i dont know, i guess im just not sensitive.
angry and happy i lost my glasses because they made me look like gok wan and i can get new ones but i cant see shit at a distance now
Traveling to our new house in Washington currently. Experienced whiteout snowstorm, literally couldn't see past the hood of the car, accidentally hit my car with my dad's car (no damage) ended up getting stuck in fucking wyoming about 11 miles south of montana because the highway is closed and now we're in the most bates motel I've ever seen. I can hear my parents from the other room deliberating what to do. Hedgehog is making a shitload of noise. Girlfriend's cat is wandering around the tiny room we're in looking for something to do idk just meowing.
You might wanna stay there until the storm ends, it can be dangerous to drive in that kind of weather
