People know I have a very high tolerance for physical pain, and yet this weekend I got hurt and people would say "does that hurt?" and I would say "yeah, a LOT" and they don't believe me, one person even said "well, I did that once and it didn't hurt as bad as you say, are you sure?" like I would lie about being in pain :mad:

okay, anyway, that's my rant for today....

what's yours?Hahaha!

Well I don't know about you, but I think I became the unmotivated apathetic person I am because caring about things always seemed to lead to depression, but that's just speculation. I wish I could remember how my personality formed too :(

You were never challenged as a child. Or you're so pathetic, you have no reason to live.

I had a phone call from a punk who didn't give me any respect at all. This little shit said "yo man, you noob, yo" and other nonsensical trash. I didn't really listen to him fully as much as want to stuff his head in a trash compactor and launch it into the sun. This punk was a pure ass dipshit. I tried to block my mind out on him so I could hang up but he seemed very persistent. Eventually the shit kept calling me names so I told him I would punch him in the face. Nothing fancy, just a quick strike to show him I mean business. But no, damn legal system. Anyway he keeps on going and says "you know?" and I said "listen you lazy shit stop calling my house or I'm gonna knock you out with my nutsack."

True story, more or less. Damn punks.

Thats not it. I had plenty of challenges emotionally. And even if I don't have a reason to live, it'd upset my family to much if I stopped. I sure wish I knew what my reason for living was, though, aside from not terribly upsetting my family.

I didn't mean emotional challenges. I meant intellecutal challenges.

You have no other reason to live for the moment, but you'll pick one up on Dehli. Time for pilgrimage. Christ, I sound like a fortune cookie.

The first part is true - I'm too smart for my own good.

If you were a fortune cookie, you'd have to end with "in bed." Man, sounds like I'm gonna get an STD in Dehli. Remind me to keep my legs closed when/if I ever go there.

No, the system is just horrible.

But I'm not. Before I can properly advise you in this matter, though, I require an honest statement of your gender...just as a precaution. I don't wanna be caught off-guard again. I'm sure you understand.

I don't understand how organisations offering free ringtones/smilies/screensavers can afford to PAY to advertise on websites. <.< >.>

I also don't understand how people who make pop-up ads and most online ads in general can believe that the average IQ level of the populace is one digit.

I don't understand why pain is cool. Not so much "emo" pain, but pain in terms of "manliness", such as playing sport in subzero temperatures. Why on earth are you a wimp if you don't want to catch frostbite or pneumonia and die? There's a fine line between perseverance and stupidity.

If i ever make plans to go to India, and I remember, and you are still STD Free, I will invite you along.

The remembering part is the tricky one. I'll be STD-free...and prolly still a virgin....Dunno why anyone'd want to go to India, though, so if you ever do any traveling and want the same...service...I'll be around. ;)

I might actually go to the Fair if they did. Except that it's a three-hour drive from where I live and I can't see my girlfriend agreeing to making that drive just to look at livestock. :rolleyes:

media bias
the fact that they report slanted or without checking story or make shit up instead of just telling what the story is and allowing the public to make up their minds based on the FACTS

Oh, I can understand that! Money, money, money, money ... They say that money can't buy happiness but that's a lie. The only time you see unhappy rich people is when someone's trying to take away their money.

How about eating that poisonous fish that the Japanese consider a delicacy? Who thought that up? A couple of bored Japanese guys sitting around, they didn't have any firearms because they hadn't been invented or gotten to Japan, so they came up with a culinary version of Russian roulette? :rolleyes:

I friend of mine, when people asked, "So, when are you starting a family/having kids?" would answer, "Friday." If it was Friday, then, "Next Friday." Another handy retort is to ask why the persons asks, is he or she looking to get rid of some offspring? Either that or a nice Zidane head-butt works, too. :D

Also this idea that the rather expensive new nuclear power build rampage is preferable to ploughing money into renewables.

Some people don't understand that others think differently to them. Usually their age is in single figures, but not always.

I agree *channels Martha Stewart* but if you remove the gum carefully and age it, it makes an excellent adhesive for household repairs.

Why do I have ot do a stupid summer assignment for the honors program when the normal people sit around and do nothing all summer? I know I'm smart, why do I need to prove it by doing a bunch of work when the other people who don't want to prove it get to make money and such? I feel overworked.

Out of curiosity... are you in high school? Because I have to do this stupid summer reading thing too, for honors... :headbang:

Ugh, I hate that - especially if the people saying it are those who always come crying about every little booboo. :rolleyes:

When I lived in the US, I broke my small toe, and because I was completely clueless about the health care system and am also not a wimp, I let my roommate talk me out of going to the doctor - after all, "it's just the little toe and how bad can that possibly be - just suck it up."
I walked around in Birkenstocks for 2 months (re-broke the toe three weeks in by slipping inside the shoe >.<) because all other shoes hurt too much. Went to the doctor on a visit back home and he taped it up and gave me a lecture about waiting so long and being lucky it hadn't gotten infected.
Flew back to the US, got to the house, and roommate had just gone off hiking with his girlfriend. Two hours later they were back, his foot in a cast.
Asshole had broken his small toe. And gone to see a doctor immediately. And gotten himself a frigging cast and crutches.
Couldn't look me in the eye, the little sucker. Men. Seriously. :rolleyes: :p
Oooooooh I HATE that SO much, ish annoying! :headbang: I bet that was annoying. Oh, and I would've stepped on his foot whilst wearing baseball cleats. That would have shown HIM!

What is it with the constant need to artificially construct one's outward appearance? It's been ridiculous for some time now. Everything from clothes that have been "pre-distressed" -- which means they're made NEW to look like they've been worn for a decade. Rips, holes, stains, all that, but they're NEW. And expensive. And people BUY them.

What happened to "distressing" your own clothes through experience? That was the whole thing with jeans, especially. Everyone knew when you got a new pair because (steady yourselves) THEY LOOKED NEW. The problem was that kids began to get teased -- actually mocked! -- for having new clothing!

Only in the US could we have this problem. In a land where some folks go begging for old clothes to warm themselves with, some feel the need to tease others because their clothes are new. This ranks right up there with bulimia (a nation rolling in food capacity, yet has starving families, produces a disease where some folks eat a good, nourishing meal and them puke it up intentionally).

I can go on -- unnaturally colored hair dye (hell, NATURAL-color dyes for that matter), excessive makeup, wearing midriff-bearing pants and tops when you have much more than a midriff (like a "fullriff" or something) and it looks like a flab souffle, the whole cell-phone debacle (especially ringtones and other useless shit), $10,000 worth of accessories (like rims that...wait for it...SPIN) on a car that costs half that and loweing a vehicle like a Chevy Blazer down to the ground with no springs and then COMPLAINING about the height of the speed bumps in the parking lot!!!

*catches breath*
