I agree for the most part. (not all though)
What exactly do you have against skinny babies, DG?
What exactly do you have against skinny babies, DG?
my pathetic existence
- Thread starter Bookworm24
- Start date
Couple problems, my school doesnt have a counseler, yes i am paranoid in the extreme, no i don't know why. and like i car if living on the streets to prove a point is stupid, i've thought about suicide and the few reasons i dont do it is because im a pussy, no i dont care if me coming across as an emo bitch is annoying, you dont have to read the forums, there is something on that internet browser called a back button. good, im glad you know what your talking about, and no i dont know what anyone means by get off of my ass and try because so far, ive been running into people with very different definitions, so fuck it, ill figure out what to do on my own, and as far as i am currently aware, i will probably never be able to satisfy your definition of trying, again, dont care, im back on my sugar rush.
If you aren't going to listen, nor make the slightest attempt to listen to any of the advice/suggestions you've been given, you shouldn't have even made a post bitching about how "bad your life is." Grow up man. Right now, you are living a pathetic existence, but that's because you're letting yourself.
I think you're just a self-righteous prick, and you're angry because your life isn't going exactly the way you had it in mind.

You don't even know what my version of trying is. You need to talk to someone. Not us internet dipshits. I dont have a degree in counseling kids. I dont want to see you hurt yourself or go down a path like Taylor and I have. I want to see you do something and be someone. I just happen to be easily irritable when kids that seemingly have decently nice homes (Unless you are being abused, which is possible but you have not said anyting) just fucking give up. Having a home and parents that are not drug addicts, child abusers, molestors, Hell, you've already got a better start than 1 out of every 10 members here. And you want to throw it away because God hates you and you feel sad? Every teenager feels that way. Every single fucking one. In fact, I've only met a very few teens on here and other forums that actually recognize how fucking good they have it and are happy for it.
And Taylor: Who wants to cuddle with a skinny baby?

She's 100% percent correct, kid. Take the information and numbers she posted into consideration. Believe me, thinks may seem bad now, but if you don't look into help, you just may see how bad things can REALLY get. Trust me, it's far worse out there than you can imagine.
For the record DG: EVERYONE wants to cuddle with a skinny baby! It's still a baby! The only thing better than cuddling a skinny baby, is kicking a fat baby :tongue:

Since you won't read this, I'll just respond as if I were writing in my diary.
Whether they know it or not, and sometimes unintentionally, some folks (like parents or bosses) program others for failure. For example, my boss gave a co-worker a big project, thinking that it was an opportunity for this person to develop their skills. Unfortunately, my co-worker had no idea how to organize and complete the project, and my boss didn't coach or teach him the rudiments needed. So my co-worker did and re-did the project about 6 times before becoming completely frustrated. He was willing, but there was no way for him to succeed on his own.
It sounds like the parents in the poster's situation are doing the same thing. With the best of intentions (looks good on college resumes, reliable car, etc.) they are setting expectations that cannot be achieved, and are unwilling to re-look at the situation, no matter how hard the poster is trying to fulfill the parents goals.
(As a side note, see Talitha's post about flip-flopping.)
If I were in that situation, with no hope of help from anyone else, I'd probably look at the things I could fix by myself. Pick the few classes that make sense to me, and work like a son of a gun on getting my grades up on those. Socializing is a bit harder, but I might choose someone from school that appears at least semi-civilized and maybe try calling them to ask about a question from school, or something on which we have a mutual interest. If my parents didn't agree on the car issue, I'd probably continue saving any money I had for now. In the meantime, I might get some car magazines and see what other options might be available. The write-ups include details about tools, performance and maintenance, so those would be used to make a decision on which car would work best for me, eventually.
In a world where there is so much that is not under our control, it's important to find the few things that we can affect. There are always going to be excuses (or legitimate reasons) for why we can't do something. It's nice to find a few where we can.
/me closes diary.
P.S. Ranting is good. It gives a chance to get things off one's chest, so to speak. And, if one doesn't want others to offer feedback, there is always the journal feature, where one can rant until the cows come home without having anyone offer advice.

Then why did you post in a forum full of people who may know how you feel? If you don't want feedback, then keep your shit on livejournal. Fuck anyone for trying to help, right? There is a difference between being self-involved and being self-sufficient.
