Ok then, here's a thread to bitch about how badly life sucks, that way the other threads don't get our depression and/or posts saying 'i hate my life' all the time.
Bitch away!
-
Human life sucks.
I wish I was a dolphin or a (lazy) dog.
-
My friends suck and I talked for almost three years online two dirty old men,some half way dirty old men and geeks.
My school sucks and my life sucks.
I'm a loser!
Can some one make me feel better?
-
So far none of that has been conclusively proven to be a cause of cancer.
Feel better?
-
No.I still feel bad.
-
Oh stop your teen angst ridden self indulgent bullshit. If your only relationships are online, trade your computer for a life and get on with it. Sheesh.
*Ahem,me-me-me-me* OHHHHHHH The sun'll come out TOMORROW, bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow, there'll be SUNNNNNNN.
-
I see more people than just you people.
I talk to people at school and whatnot.
Thainks for makeing feel worse,Spice!
-
Life is Grand! It really is. Go out and live it! My life sucks right now cause i have to take a spanish final in an hour and 20 mins...but after that final...Life will be good. And we have liqour to thank for that :D
-
I hate self pity parties.
-
I hate myself
I hate my life
I hate it when I broke up with my boyfriend
I hate being hated.
Maybe Suicidal is the answer
-
No, suicide is not the answer.
Anyway, life is great for me, and I try to avoid those 'bad' situations, which I do. I live life, well, pretty boringly, but I have this inside gushy feeling of true happiness.
-

I already thought of that but that could be worse than life,a lot worse.
You can't come back after it also.
-
{honking your nose}
Suicide isn't the answer. Don't think I'm saying this cuz it's the "proper" thing to say; I've actually thought about it somewhat and I've realized that an early death is admitting defeat. As long as there's a next day, there's a chance for it to get better. If you're dead, then it's done.
Oh, and life does suck sometimes, in fact, life sucks a lot. It sucks for everyone, but not everyone reacts to it. You just need to find something that you like to do and do it. Whether it's drawing, writing, playing games, cooking, PEELing, whatever....just find something and stick with it. Become defiant and don't let those who put you down win. It's either you or them, and don't let them win {they're a bunch of losers :) }
-
Meh, I cant complain about my life at all, and even if something bad does happen I'm not gonna come here talking about how "unfair" my life is, shit happens, and when it does we just have to find a way of dealing with it (apart from hanging ourselves).
-
If you get through whatever sucks now, the next suckiness to come along won't be nearly as bad. There's truth to that saying, "Whatever doesn't kill you will only make you stronger." Your objective is not to let it kill you. And like Evan said, "find something that you like to do and do it".
Oh, & if you feel like we're making fun of you in other posts, we might be, but not in evil. We're just referring to earlier times of our own lives where we're reminded of our own fallicies. Maybe not exactly the same, but close enough to relate to it.
So HJS, you are who you are. If I crack a joke on your expense, throw it away, don't worry about it. (What I'm really looking forward to is a decent witty comeback.) If you took what I say, & went even further with my remark than I did...toward yourself...you'd gain a lot more respect here.
And Juliet, I know about messy breakups. And I know how much nobody wanted to hear about my pain after day 3. Which left 3.5 weeks of me dealing with it myself. When you come to PEEL, try not to bring up you-know-what. The less you talk about it, the quicker you'll get over it.
-
hey juliet, at least the person who broke up with you was actually dating you at some point. It could be worse, ask me how.

Knowing the story, should I have laughed out loud at that? Because I did. If not, I'm sorry, if so, :laff:.
-
yeah you can laugh. if we can't laugh at life then we'd be just like these kids who want to kill themselves
-
Life rules suckers
-
Life wonderful!Yo!Lets have partys!
-
its not in topic.please close.thats it.
Margarita.
-
Tell me about it... Life isn't doing to well right now. I think I will Watch Evangelion... that should cheer me up.
-
I've heard it said that a guy likes two things stroked - his ego and his, well, you know . . .
Thus far I have neither. So, maybe a fault of my own, I have little sympathy for people who go through breakups, no matter how messy, because they've still had something I haven't. Do you know what it's like, to go through 20 years of your life and never being validated as someone a girl would want to be with? It sucks, it really does. It makes you wonder if there's something wrong with yourself, that there must be some reason why nothing ever develops. At least you've had that, the knowledge that you can attract someone. I haven't. And it's not a fun place to be, where I am.

Having a girlfriend is nice. But unless you're in one of those moments in which you both get along great, it's more hassle than being single. Of course, the good times are better than being single.... but still. You don't need the opposite sex's attention to validate your existence. Better to live for yourself than worry much what the ladies (Or guys) think of you.

if your life is meaningless, you want to desperately try to make it meaningful. espcially if you find someone that is as depressed as you. so girlfriends/boyfriends really can give you a reason to wake up...i should know...
life just gets really sad lonely and boring once youre alone again.
sarge, not talking about it doesnt help. ive always needed someone to talk to when i go through that stuff. i just couldnt do it alone. neither can about 80% of people. especially when youve been together for years and really love him/her.
-
Jon, there's a word for being together with someone/s you really love for a really long time. It's called 'spoiled'. You don't have a clue to the real world of living with just yourself. It's a life of a different discipline.
-
someone sounds bitter.
I know its different living life by yourself. I've lived my life alone for a long time, then it got "spoiled" as you call it and it seemed perfect. When shit happens once you're "not spoiled" anymore, you need someone to talk to about it. People that live alone get over it after a while. Juli and danny split up just this month. she's having a hard time with it..
-
Yes Jon. Someone sounds bitter. Sounds like you're in a funk of your own.
How long did you live alone?
-
Why so edgy towards me Sarge? We're teens. We're sad. We're wanting something in life and not getting shit. We try to get something meaningful in our lives through relationships. Most of the time it works, until you break up, which is when you need people to HELP you through it. It's extremely hard to get through it by yourself.

Don't be ridiculous. It's not 'spoiled'. Being in a relationship with someone you love is what just about everyone wants. You don't have to rely on that other person to be yourself. The best relationships are where both parties keep their independence.
I've spent plenty of time both in a serious relationship, and single. Nothing beats being with someone you love, but being single is fun too. I certainly don't find it 'hard' doing things on my own.
-
the depressed teenager routine is getting pretty old around here
if you honestly think that it's better to be in some "relationship" with someone else (anyone else, dear god i'm so alone) in order for you to have a reason to live your life (fake jon: "i was going to kill myself but I have to drive suzie to the movies tonight"), well that's kinda sad. If you can't be happy being your own person and you have to depend on being able to say that you have a boyfriend/girlfriend... ugh. Having a Significant Other is not the be all and end all in life.
-
Suicide? There has to be something you don't own yet.
-
Wow...there sure is a lot to respond to here.
1)To Nix: I'm feeling the same vibe as Nix when it comes to not being validated by females. I'm getting really sick and tired of always being construed as 'the shy, yet caring friend' or hearing the 'sorry, i do like you, but i'm dating someone/just got out of a bad relationship/am a lesbian' excuse.
2) To Juli: Life without love does suck in its own little way. I will admit, from what I've heard, once you've loved and lost, you'll still feel the pangs of what-once-was all the time, but if you never had it, the curiousity and low self-confidence really hit you hard too. At least you had some good times with your significant other. That's more than I can say.
3)To HJS: Whenever someone insults you, insult 'em right back. I know that deep down inside of you there's a bitter woman who can come up with clever and mean remarks. Don't be afraid of that person; use her. For example:
Sarge: HJS is a man.
HJS: Man or woman, you still don't have any sort of chance with me.
Like that? Snappy comebacks and mean-spirited humor build up your defenses. You need to be a bitch sometimes in order to fight back.
4)To VF: Just tell me about it. I've been there, sister.
5)To Jon: Sarge meant 'spoiled' as that you made it sound like you've always had a girlfriend. That does spoil you in a way, and it is really hard for us constantly single people.
6)To Musca: You read my mind. I was just about to start re-watching Evangelion tonight. AT Fields are important.

Teenage angst has paid off well
but now I'm bored and alone.

Insulting people back means when they insult you back and it gets to be a worse than better.
I learned that in 6th grade middle school.

My conclusion is that everybody's life sucks, the difference is how you deal with it.
My life sucks. I'm not in, and have never had a meaningful relationship. I've failed half my classes this semester; and will probably have to switch to an easier university. I've reasoned religion into absurdity, but in doing so have taken away the warm, comforting confidence that I know how the universe works. I live in a world, and more specifically a country that's run by madmen; but know too much to believe them when they tell me that everything's alright. The list goes on.
Am I depressed? No. Like many of the people who've posted here (Evan, Sarge, VF, Nixy . . .) I'm bitter. The world's a crappy place, and I'm along for the ride. So be it. I'll follow life to it's conclusion. Suicide is the ultimate form of giving up; and I never give up. I'll probably find pockets of sanity along the way where I can talk to, work with, and hopefully love like minded people.
The problem that the some of the others who've posted in this thread (Juli, HJS . . . ) have is that they think that most people's lives are significantly better than their own. That somehow there's this wonderful world that they're not a part of. It doesn't exist. We're all taught to believe that we all can have these perfect little lives if we just try hard enough; but it doesn't work that way.
-
Hey! You take that back! I'm bitterness wrapped in a sweet chocolate shell!
-
Yeah, I had times when I thought my life was worthless but I always try not to let myself feel that way no matter how much I screw up in life, because I feel that someday things will get better even when I feel like complete shit.
-
Life is wonderful!!! :D

Life does certainly suck. But having friends and trying to think positive helps. :)
Hm... who am I to know what it's like to think positive? :(
-
Okay now Ninaka gets to pour out a pathetic sucky story...
I decide I'm going overseas for a considerably long time. Just before finalising the details I meet a guy for the first time in damn ages (over a year). I innocently take our "hooking up" as another semi-drunken party pash, but turns out I actually like the guy and - by golly - he likes me back!! So we talk it over and it's all cool - I really have a bf!
I honestly never thought it'd get to 6 months. I mean, I've never EVER had a relationship where:
1) It's lasted more than 6 weeks
2) I've actually liked them
3) I'm myself and entirely comfortable
4) I think I'm actually in :love:
So... just when I have a good thing going, I have to face up to the fact that in 2 months I'm leaving. I feel like I'm kicking myself in the face. I'd stay - but it'd be just so selfish and crazy and risky just to stay for him and give up all my plans. So I'm going. Which is damn right hard to do... It's almost like having to break up with someone for no reason.
It really sucks. And no matter how much he says he's coming overseas too, to visit or to stay, I'll always have to prepare myself that he won't because I know the type of occupation he's in - he has too many debts to pay off before even saving up for o'seas.
So, again, I'm left in a lose-lose situation. I'm forced to enjoy the time I have left, knowing it's inevitably doomed because I have to push myself onto a plane and go ahead with something I planned long before him.
At times I almost wonder if it all would have been easier if I had stayed single and never have gotten involved - but then I'd never learn that I can be all these wonderful things, and feel all like this around a person. I've never been like this before... So... playing good-cop/bad-cop, I stay involved, but not far away I break our hearts and go away. I feel so bad that I know I will hurt him so much by leaving him, and that's what kills me more.
I think I need a therapist. But I'll leave it there for now - thinking about it all too much gets me down...
-
Hey maybe we should make a poll: "Who is the least likely to find true happiness and meaning in their pathetic, miserable, pointless lives?" or "Who keeps talking about considering suicide but is least likely to actually commit to the void?" Wait, maybe we should have a "Dark Poetry" thread. God knows I have a good deal of those.
-
Hey, this is my thread!
Hey people: I've been in armpit full lots of shite this year. Up to and including, death, broken hearts, not being validated by the opposite sex (which came before the broken heart), crappy break ups, dumb involvements with male friends, trouble with school/ over reacting 'friends' (the word git would probably apply better), umentionable bits which sent my best friend away to England without notice, etc etc... remember my big massive rant in the last of these threads we had in the ex off topic? take heed of the fact that Ben calls me 'Dawson' because of my stupidly soap opera ish life and understand that I love it anyway. As a teenager it is in my contract that life will suck, but not always. I have moods, and no, not all of them are driven by PMS, and yet I don't think I'd have it any other way. Life is fun for the most part, and all of the crap that seems to occur when you're a teenager is just part of it. I believe it makes true friendships stronger. So nyaaah.
-

But seriously, my lifes great. I've never once contemplated suicide, and I get up each day and do as I please. Life, for me, is dandy.

I've had a few moments where I thought I couldn't get through stuff, then I got through stuff. Funny how things pass if you're too lazy to do anything else than live.
To all those who are out of relationships, sometimes I envy you. Being in relationships (or marriages, like me) brings with it it's own problems (see: Ninaka), I've had relationships which have literally put me off of sex for months on end (I don't have a particularly addictive personality, so I can take it or leave it).
To Juliet: As I've said in the chatroom, don't feel so bad, the answer to your problems is right outside your front door. Turn the page - you know you can't go back, call your friends, go down the pub, go to the cinema, head down to The Lomax or The Cavern and see some live music, do anything, except what you're doing now, because it clearly isn't working.
Me? I'm okay with how my life is, and if we're sighting appropriate music, I offer:
Black Box Recorder - Child Psychology
It carries a message:
"Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it."
Nuff said.
-
Aw man...do you ever get the feeling where you think you might be on the verge of saying something interesting, but it just won't come out for some reason? I guess I'll just let other people do the talking.
By iliketowankalot(in another thread):
and if all that fails you can always go home and have a wank
By VelourFog:
if we can't laugh at life then we'd be just like these kids who want to kill themselves
These two people are my heroes in life, so listen to them.
Nix, Evan, and the rest of you girlfriend-less people, I feel your pain. I really do. I too go through my "ugh, why am I not making out right now?" phases every now and again. But through it all, you just have to
a) laugh at everything. There's so much humor in the world. To not laugh at your own personal situation would be a criminal waste of humor. And
b) be patient, and remember that you'll always have yourself. I don't necessarily mean that in a gross way, either.
Look at it this way: 90% of all girls are stupid. (To avoid making myself look like a total misogynist, I will concede that roughly the same percentage of men are just as stupid)
Of the remaining, I'd say only 20-30% of them are hot enough to date. (Once again, in the interest of fairness, I will point out that less than one percent of all men are datably hot)
And of the few remaining women who are both hot and non-stupid, 90% of them are too good for you.
So then there are a few scant women who are hot and smart, but not so hot and smart that they won't be willing to date you. 70% of them have interests totally different from yours.
That leaves approximately 4 women in the entire world that are hot, smart, willing to date you, and have compatible personalities. And one of them will date you for a month before finally realizing that she's a lesbian.
As you can see, finding a good girlfriend is a lot more difficult than TV and your slutty friends make it out to be. But give it some time, and keep meeting new people...it's bound to happen eventually. In the meantime, be comfortable with the knowledge that being alone is better than dating 99.9% of the world's population.
-
Life does not suck, but there are certain parts which do. You have to put up with crap and then maybe something good will happen.
Suicide is not the answer. I have talked 2 friends out of commiting suicide and it makes me feel good about myself.
One sucky part of life (especially at my age) is townies. Yesterday one was taking the piss out of my best friend because she has exczma. So after the lesson she went up to her and started to question her. But being the chicken that I am, I ran for it, but asked her afterwards if it went well. She said it did :)
-
Life is FANTASTIC, Yeh baby, i love it, wahoo. Im so happy. allthough you wont to be any where near me in three hours when these pills wear off
-
if feelin good, im outta school (evntho i dropped out) and i mangaed to make something using paint.
-
Ok then, i've not got the most number of friends at school, but luckilly i'm not the most hated kid. I'm not really 'attractive' since the teenage spots (i got them really bad over here) and i'm just starting my GCSEs at school, which put on enough pressure to make other things worse. Oh, being one of the youngest in my year doesn't help, especially during the teens, but i can't help that.
But i look on the bright side when i can. Spots will go, i've got plenty of friends, unfortunately most outside school, i can take people 'joking' (sometimes it's funny, other times not) and my grades are looking to be good in all the key subjects (so i'm doing crap in German, that's it). I do a paper-round, which is bloody hard work and since winter set in, it's got worse, but i like the fact i'm already getting my own income, granted it's £20 a week, but for 3 hours work it's the best i can do at this age.
So i'm looking forward to what life will bring in University and after (since i'm only 14) and i'm looking forward to the fact that things will get better.
[EDIT]Oh, and here on PEEL, i'm popular! I find it a comfort to know that people like me here only from my personality. I also found it great that people thought i was alot older/maturer then a 14 year old! PEEL has been a great help.[/EDIT]

Having read half the posts above, and found that most of them are about sex, and how it is overrated, I have some advice to offer: Pick up drunken chicks at student parties, they'll do anything you want. anything. It's great.
If you don't get invited to these parties, you've missed out on something important.

O.K. I 'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

I don't think life suck. Maybe that's because I'm only 11.

First off, I'd like to congratulate some of the people for their great advice in this thread:
Sarge, evan and FJ especially. Well done guys.
It's true what Sarge said aswell: "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". I've been through most of the shit mentioned here and more. Infact I'm currently getting counselling and on anti-depressants because of some of my troubles. But since this is the second time this has happened, I can deal with what life throws at me a lot better. When I get over this, I should be able to deal with it even better. While life may suck, you can't be on cloud nine all the time, and if you were it'd be very boring.
Good luck with all... :D

When I was 11-15, I was a mess. I had zits the size of Jordan's breasts and breasts the size of Jordan's zits. I had glasses like re-entry shields, I had started my periods aged ten and had spots at nine, so I was getting teased because none of the other kids knew that spots = puberty and thoguht I wasn't clean. No one in my school liked me apart from perhaps eight people who tolerated me, I got the highest grades in the year and understandably, everyone slagged the hell out of me. I would have if I was them, I wsa the easiest target you can imagine.
But in the end, I decided I wasn't going to stay where I was unhappy and made things changed. I switched schools and ended up moving house. My spots cleared up after about five bloody years and I got contacts because I genuinely don't have the kind of face that suits glasses. I didn't morph into a giggling happy popular person with hundreds of boyfriends, but I did find the confidence to be myself quietly and as a result I met some wonderful friends. College was the same, I got up the confidence to talk to people.
The last few months I feel I have morphed into everything I used to hate. I was with a lot of guys in quick succession and did some things I regret, but nothing too bad. I just ahd to see what it was like to be the kind of person that everyone seems to aspire to, i.e. can get laid easily and meaninglessly whenever they want, although I stopped short of that. And it's boring as hell, so no one here is missing out on anything.
Everyone who has posted in this thread has a distinct personality and life will get better for all of you. Everyone finds their own way to cope and change is easier to bring about than you expect once you start it.
-
Which goes to show you, preppiness, just, doesn't, pay.
I am Nick, doing the TOTP Diesel Jerk.
-
Actually the best advice I can give is talk to as many people as you can, whoever they are. Everyone has different life experience and I find it really interesting to read about how people's lives have panned out. When it comes to life no one person is right, but once you get to know others you will probably find there are plenty of people like you, and plenty of "popular" people who have the same problems as you do.
Again best to everyone who's life sucks at the moment :D

Actually, my life is pretty good about now. I went to the school formal and survived with my girlfriend intact. Christmas is coming soon. I slept in till Noon today. I'm about to make whatever I want for dinner... I have a school trip on Monday. I have no tests or assignments on my back. Speaking in the short term, life is good.
I'll be singing a different tune late January, when exams come, and I'll start making a noose in June when exams for next semester (2 sciences, math and english!) come, but for now, I'm happy.

Hey guys,
There's no need to feel sad because you're not 'with' someone. You will be - that's a promise. That's the way life works. You will always find people that feel the same way you do. Don't listen to Fishy Joes' percentages, that's just crap.
The main thing is, you have to be happy in yourself, happy BY yourself and confident in yourself before you can expect people to be attracted to you. Once you have found a happy place in life, good people will come... (that's not supposed to be rude!)
For those still at school/doing a-levels, you need to understand that this is a stage in life you will go through, when maybe no-one will like you and things will be hard... hormones all over the place.
I didn't really start dating until I was 18. I certainly wasn't popular in school. People tend to blossom. That's no myth.
And suicide is never the answer. Everyone here, for example, has good friends on this board. No-one is truly alone. Life has ups and downs. Learn to live through the downs and cherish the ups.
Merry christmas, everyone!
Edit: I had to correct my spelling of 'percentages' - I must be drunk!
-
FJ is NOT full of crap! He carefully researches these numbers by thinking of them on the spot!

9 out of 10 cats prefer FJ's numbers to any other brand.

I'm one who thinks life doesn't suck, so I'd like to give any of you suicidally inclined people some perspective.
1) Don't be so selfish. Chances are pretty good everybody has at least one other person who cares about them, maybe someone you've never even thought about. You whacking yourself affects more than just you. Think of the hurt you might put people you care about in. Would you want one of them to kill themselves because they couldn't deal with your suicide?
2) In playing sports it's good to remember that there is always someone better than you. It helps motivate you to be better. In life there's a similar theme, someone always has it worse than you. There are plenty of terminally ill people out there who would trade their certain death for the life you consider to be hell. There are plenty out there who in the 21st century still live on the lowest common denominator of life just trying to find enough food to eat everyday. You do not live at the bottom of the ladder, be think about what you've been given before you considering throwing it away. Maybe you could find reasons to live in helping those less fortunate out.
3)Finally, if you can find nothing else to live for, live to be a thorn in the side of humanity (I'm not talking violence here or anything, just being a pain in the ass). Live to tell me to take my preaching and shove it up my ass! Society needs a little hell raising every once in a while.

Ewwww, a long post. How gnarly!

Long posts are ok. But you have to have lots of paragraphs otherwise I will ignore it.

1) Don't be so selfish. Chances are...
2) In playing sports it's good to remember...
3)Finally, if you can find nothing else to live for...
4) Justify your existence with posessions. You've heard the expression, "He who dies with the most toys wins". Chances are, you're a few light years from winning, so don't quit until you're ahead.

Why don't you shut up? This thread is for people to voice their concerns and for other people to help them out.
Now for my bitch: I don't like you Australian Guy, you've bitched about everything and not followed PEEL 'rules'. These are:
1) No chat speek (lol, yer ect.)
2) Spell right.
3) Punctuation.
4) AVOID CAPS OR AlTeRnAtInG CaPs.

wAIT wAIT wAITE howe canne ie InCluDe all Tose gripes In wan PoST>?

I'd agree with that, I'm sick of seeing "lol".
:laff: <-----that's what that is there for.
Respect PEEL, and PEEL will respect you.

At the moment, life is GREAT. I've just finished my last piece of history coursework, the printer didn't run out of ink and I'm very pleased with it :)
-
I doubt it. I never felt comfortable posting here thats why i left last time. People just seemed prissy about posts. Why are they all so uppity. Isnt off topic fo general chit-chat. THERE i missplled(mmm never did know how to spell that) and i corrected it. GRRRR i failed to spell there. Its my key board its just hard to type on.
-
No. It's for topics that aren't about Futurama. You might want to read the title page.
The reason people are "uppity" is because we all have better things to do with our time than wade through moronic and incoherent crap. There's too much good stuff to read to waste time on bad stuff.
*burns Seamus Heaney book*
Now I feel better!
-
I think i may have started a flame war
KEWL
-
All of PEEL and all PEELers work like this, and incase you didn't notice, alot of newbies adjusted to this. Bartman was one of the worst and most annoying newbies of then all, now he's a respected regular. (sorry Bartman!)
It's not us being picky, if we all work like this, it can't be that hard, can it? As Holly said, we don't want to read through posts containing nothing but crap, it's annoying.

Ok, yeesh!
Calling us 'assholes' won't help your cause.
All caps again?
Ever heard of the apostrophie (this thing ')? It's used it words like you'd (you would) and i've (i have).

i use caps to empahise my tone, and rest assured if this board wasnt moderated id be gettin very profane with you aslet, now im gonna go off and cry :cry:

Yea, i know you did, sorry, i just hate newbies who come along and don't follow any rules. Next time, you could try using [B] and [/B]

I agree.

Aussie guy: I noticed you've been registered here for a while. How come the sudden surge of posts?
Anyway not so long ago the off-topic forum crashed because of too many posts being made, the majority of which were useless spam even by regulars. mArc, the guy who runs this place, said no more spam or he will shut the whole of PEEL down. So maybe you can see why we get uppity. Every spam post costs someone money. And none of us are made of money thank you.
Basically the golden rule is: Unless you have something worthwhile to say, don't.
Anyway I think Sarge said it best.
-
Pfft. Sarge just likes making posts that have one smilie and no words. I'm on to you!

You missed a spot.

My life's great except that I've no job, no prospects, no future and I spend all my waking hours on a computer talking shite to complete strangers. I am extremly good looking though, which helps. And I have a really large porn collection, which also helps. Oh yeah and suicide is one of the most selfish acts any human being can commit. Life may suck, but believe me it's better than being in a hole in the ground. Besides, you have a better chance of scoring when you're alive.....

Who let this guy through the turd detector?

Don't look at me. I'm not a mod.

has anyone hit the "alert marc" button? try it! it's totally fun

(presses it in every thread) J/K! :laff:

Someone's going to be alerting me to Marc before long.... Oh well. it's not like I did anything offensive.
-
Someone? What about everyone?

The Alert button must be ring tonight and Marc is going to kill us all.

The reason i have started posting here again is becasue futurama just came back on last week. Id be talking more about futurama but theres only been 2 eps on so far that ive seen. and that was 4 days ago. Thats right ppl Its only been 4 days of hell so far.

Aww, does your mom also tell you that you're the coolest guy in school? Just kidding, but that statement does seem a bit narcissistic.

who me?

Aussie... DrThunder quoted someone else. So that means we can assume he was addressing / referring to the person he quoted.

What a bindu.. :laff:

I bindu'd your mother. she paid me in cookies.
So what's a bindu?

You'll know if you watch "Goodness Gracious Me".
BTW, the comment wasn't aimed at you TMC.

I know :D
Think of why I acted like it was :evillaugh:

I love goodness gracious me.
Anyway, life doesn't suck, but channel 7 does. Bastards haven't put futurama on this week. What was that bit of cliched information I wanted to give you all?
Oh yeah:
'If you put a small value on yourself you can be sure the world won't raise the price.'
Point: Confidence is neccesary for others to understand you. But not in excess. And no, confidence is not achieved through a significant other.

What happens if you put too great a value on your life? Do you just get taxed more?

:belly laugh:
I warned you it was cliched. The answer is: The world won't buy you, except for the shmucks, because you are presented as far too expensive.

I tried that once on Langley, in the old off-topic, he edited his post before mArc could read it though :( best quote the offending post before hitting alert so the offender can't delete it :p

Hey it's not my fault i'm extremly good looking. Dog turds have feelings too you know.
<Runs off crying with his pants down.>
P.S. In case anyone is still wondering I was joking when I said the bit about being extremly good looking and the porn collection.

@FazeShift: I never saw that bat signal with Marc before now. That's cool. Did you make that?

Man, Ben's always pressuring us to whine and bitch. Why can't he just leave us alone? :cry: It's all about him, him, him. He wants to name the new thread. He wants to make fun of us. We aren't even to five pages yet! How can we start another thread? :cry:

Why are these threads being brought back from the dead? we all know life doesnt suck.

Life is going to be good for me. I got an interview on Tuesday wish me luck.
-
Life...Hmm, nothing much gets me down anymore, and I learned to control anger, and sometimes, I don't even get angry when I should (Whats the point?). When life throws stuff your way, turn the situation around and shove it in life's face. One of my techniques (Though I don't really suggest it: Find your own way that works for you) is to stop acting human. I mean like going against your natural reaction, and make the best of things. I laugh at almost anything, which lightens up a situation for me. Uhhh...More late...I guess.
-
My life isn't especially good, but nor does it suck ass; it just kinda is. Right now I'm essentially just waiting for something important to actually happen.

OK I've put off saying this for a long time, but:
Would you shut up and stop being such a hypocritical know-it-all prat. OK, you don't know anyone on this board, a point you keep bringing up all the time. So you can't comment on how their life is going, at least without sounding completely hypocritical. And worse, these "jokes" aren't in the slightest bit funny. They just make you sound like a heartless bastard, or a complete dick.
Right now that's out in the open... Good luck Juli. Tell me how it goes! :)

Erm, that was archie, not me.
@Marg: This is a good thread anyway, it helped shut up some people from bitching in all the other threads. What is your problem with Drippy_Cupcake? She's friends with a mod, so be careful...

Even with different avatars they still confuse us. I should be honoured to be compared to such a shiny forum beacon as you... :D
