[QUOTE=FFStudios;42859712]i don't think this is stupidity as much as it is a normal reaction to hearing that someone you were good friends with has done something like that??????
have you never heard the saying "denial is the first stage of grief" or something? something about when people blatantly disregard basic human psychology in favor of insulting someone just really gets under my skin[/QUOTE]
Honestly even accounting for the denial part she doesn't seem very bright. Though Michael (perfumly?) was being rather aggressive which naturally only works to trigger an irrationally defensive and close-minded attitude so it could be that.
I really disagree with the statment "murderers deserve no sympathy" and I disapprove of his of dealing with her in general (seriously kind of dickish) but yeah she definitely doesn't sound very enlightened

Anyone here from the midlands in the UK? Would love to meet up for a smoke with anyone!
all the facepunchers from the midlands + north should train down to the south seeing as we have somewhat of a concentration going on down here :v:
I saw a tycho concert last night and that was so awesome
Also the weirdest concert I think I've been to. Maybe it was the 100+mg of ketamine and the fact that I was really, really stoned but it was just so surreal
In fact I think I got too fucked up it was hard to focus on te concert, but when I did it was awesome

Heh, this relates to my professor. This semester I'm taking 2 sociology classes with this one professor, law and society and sociology of deviance. He's been around the prison system his whole career, studying inmates and what not and hes a very chill guy (hes constantly brings up legalization of weed, sometimes all drugs) and most of the time shows sympathy for prisoners since hes been with a lot of em who are really not bad people just wrong place, wrong time, wrong race, kinda deal. His colleague created a documentary of how prisoners were used in experimental testing that left them scared for life, lose all their teeth, gave them cancer, herpes, etc. Most of these people who were only there for processing or serving under 2 years. Which brings me to this point, the other day in law and society, we were talking about repeat offenders and the professor brought up how his friend was interviewing former burglars who made a career out of it and retired. He made the joke that he didnt let him into his house when they came to visit, then a few moments realized how bad that sounded and pointed out how in society its ok to discriminate against criminals.

Society really does have a way of dehumanizing criminals, on one hand it's kind of understandable and necessary to have consequences in the fashion, but to the extent it's taken it really ruins the chances for many offenders to change and become respectable members of society again.
Derbyshire mofos, Peak District representin'!
So I figured I would ask in this thread. I am about to drop out of college. I am currently in Calculus 2 and Physics. After 4 years of college trying to get an engineering degree I have finally given up. Nobody I know or talked to has ever said anything encouraging me to continue with it. And when asked what I was going to do with an engineering degree I couldn't answer. When asked if I even liked it, my answer was no. People said I would be miserable, and my only excuse was "Well at least I'll be making lots of money so I can just shoot myself with a nicer gun". I thought about it when I was sick this week and I decided I didn't like that answer, I would rather not shoot myself at all. So I caved into peer pressure and am doing something I am happy doing rather than making lots of money. In this respect I have decided to learn welding and some kind of metal working. I also really want to move out of my parents house and move to good old Colorado so I can be high. That's my life dream afterall, make things and get high. So as for the question. How do I go about learning metal working and moving out of my parents house?

It's the disconnect between what the prison system is and what it should be that bothers me. You have people saying things like 'whats wrong with [I]them[/I]' 'why cant they get jobs' 'why do they turn to drugs/dealing/stealing etc' when prison really doesnt do anything to rehabilitate behavior. People who end up in the system are usually poor, they lack opportunity and in their eyes the only way to survive where they live is to do the aforementioned stuff. Quick example, co worker of mine a few years back told me how he was finishing high school and 'was finally done with that crap'. I realized how lucky I was to live in the neighborhood I lived in and go the the school I went to because success was pushed on us and generally the school population believed they had a chance to succeed in life. His school no one gave a shit, the teachers, administration, and the students themselves didnt believe in themselves, so school was seen as a waste of time. Same with the ghettos, they dont see themselves as having possibilities so giving up in school is not stigmatized and sometimes encouraged. They then turn to the only things they know, being surrounded by drug use and dealing. Some prisons are lucky enough to have facilities where they can actually learn new skills and make some money, they can then use these skills to land jobs when they get out lessening their chances of going back to the old lifestyle. The problem with private prisons is that they aim for cost effectiveness, so they ignore making rehabilitative services. So it turns into sending a kid into time out and expecting them to spontaneously become an upstanding citizen. If there was some way to turn prisons into a more rehabilitative system and keep the deterring effect of it that would be perfect but prison is just a means of social control on the poor, so without anyone to represent them or care I see no change happening in the states.

My Aniracetam arrived today! I just nommed one. I will try to document the effects over the next week as I keep taking them.
I haven't even heard of anyone on here being from Ontario, though a few are from Canada.
Maybe you should find some sort of productive outlet for your frustrations, like boxing or wrestling or martial arts?
I haven't gotten to use weed in so damn long.
[QUOTE=thejjokerr;42865385]Ugh I want to be a better person, but raging makes me feel so good... Is there anything I can do besides doing drugs all the time to keep my anger from taking over at random times?
Does anyone else have experience with getting a great feeling when you punch something or shout out your lungs? It's kinda confusing/scary as I find myself thinking of horrible things at times while for the rest of the time I'm a pretty laid back guy.
Really all I want to prevent is becoming some kind of asshole, just because I can't control myself properly. It's really tiring constantly having to be a nice guy...[/QUOTE]
yes, punching shit and shouting when angry makes you feel better
the more you do it, the more it reinforces that behaviour and the more you will become angry and do it to get that dopamine rush
it's the same concept as drugs
the best way is the classic take deep breaths/count/whatever else to chill yourself out - the less you punch shit and shout when angry the better

if you physically cant control it, therapy.

Sometimes when I get angry it feels so good that I become a angry/happy mix and I just want to go around smashing shit in glee.

[QUOTE=thejjokerr;42865689]I'm trying to avoid therapy even though several people including my parents advised it. I just don't want risk being told by a doctor/therapist that I suffer from something mentally. As a kid I was never tested for add or autism or anything like that, but I know from looking at people around me that I think and act very differently. So I'm almost sure there's something not 100% right in my head, I just don't want to hear it. Even knowing this I don't want to do anything about it.[/QUOTE]
I know that feeling. Now, and even when I was little, I would not be able to control my mind and it would feed me morbid thoughts. I had a couple the other day; one being if you could use the versatility of stem cells in the womb of a pregnant woman, by injecting with a virus or mutated dna, to birth a different organism, or maybe a bunch of small organisms, that just eat their way through their host and spread to other organic life.
My stuff came. GTA V is awesome so far. This game sure handles AA strangely. :v:
