About that fugly girl discussed above: how old is she?

She seems to be dressed and acting like a teen but looks rather advanced in the years.

God, I just can't believe that some people would actually be doing better than I am. The nerve.

On the other hand, there are people who do seem to enjoy boasting.  I accepted a Friend request from a guy I knew from high school that I was kinda tight with for a while.  As with anyone I re-contact from the old days, I shot him a message asking him what he's been up to.  He never answered.  Posted a few times on his wall, just saying Hi and that, no replies.  But he's on Facebook all the time, asking people to Like his business page; obviously he's using the whole social networking thing to expand his client base, but he could at least keep up the personal end.  And from digging around, I know that he now lives in Florida and has his own photography studio. 

Every status is "Spent all day at the beach house. Life is good." and "Played tennis this morning, then went sailing." and "Scored a big contract this week. That should pay for my trip to the Bahamas this year."  Okay, dude, we get it; you're very successful and life has been good to you.  And you're too busy living the good life to actually talk to people who you once considered friends, so... later.  I unFriended him.  Seemed like a pretty one-way relationship anyway.

"Let me tell you just how great it is to be struggling with finances and working a dead end job while people around me are telling me how well they are doing.

From the masses of us who don't have our own home, can't afford a new car, and have bills that continue to pile up cause we were dealt a plate load of responsibilities: go shove it up your ass."

God, I just can't believe that some people would actually be doing better than I am. The nerve.

I have five bucks that says the "dead end job" and "plate load of responsibilities" are all this person's fault anyway.  Sure, life shits all over some people.  But there are way too many people that love to make themselves the victims of their circumstances when it isn't the case. 

So...this person maybe dropped out of school, probably had a child unexpectedly.  Probably isn't a hard worker, so the dead-end job only seems like a dead-end job because their work ethic keeps them from ever being up for promotions or significant raises.

Just my two cents.  Am I right about any of this?

Nothing "pathetic" there IMHO.

I completely agree. I mean, she didn't say it with the eloquence that Hitchens did, but she is on the right track in terms of content.

You definitely have a point, but I have a difficult time believing that this girl is speaking from that position, judging from her past behavior--which is eyebrow-raising, to say the least.

"Let me tell you just how great it is to be struggling with finances and working a dead end job while people around me are telling me how well they are doing.

From the masses of us who don't have our own home, can't afford a new car, and have bills that continue to pile up cause we were dealt a plate load of responsibilities: go shove it up your ass."

You're right about pretty much all of it, though she doesn't have a child. She's also insecure, a liar, a hypocrite, acts out of pure emotion, and has to be the center of attention 24/7.

Obviously you know this person and her situation better than we do.  I didn't see anything really wrong with what she'd posted, but if most of her troubles are her own damned fault and she's too lazy to do anything about it, then yeah, I don't have much sympathy for her.

'Hate sitting on a cold toilet seat!'

Which is ridiculous enough, but the first comment is better: Just use your hair dryer to warm it up!

Who, in the hell, would ever make that connection?

I was just thinking the same thing.  For a while, there were four long-haired people in our house so the blow dryer was always just sitting there on the counter anyway.  A minute or two, and you can have a nice warm seat on a chilly day.

Caveat: I still find it kinda weird sitting down when the seat's still warm from the previous occupant.  I know that other people use it; I just don't need the obvious reminder.

The part that got me was the "hypocrits" and the "or anything in my eyes."

Well I suppose you simply have to know this person. Coming from an intellectually minded person, this may have carried some weight. But not from this bimbo.

Dude recently broken up with his gf, acting like a pussyfart:

I neither want to go to bed, nor do I want to go out. Also I don't want to stay here. I think I just ruled out pretty much all my options.

Quote
When a good thing goes bad it's not the end of the world
It's just the end of a world that you had with one girl
And she's the reason it happened, but she's overreacting
And it's all because she don't want things to change

...It's like this guy is me in a parallell universe!

And that's just a couple, hes got a whole page of this shit.

 :rollin I wondered the same, because it sounds like he's making it out to be that he isn't the one that wrote it... But there's no way something that horrible (and grammatically incorrect) came from someone that isn't both being a pansy and is brain-dead.

One girl I'm friends with, in the space of a day (starting from the previous stroke of midnight):

Quote
If youre going to be a friend, then be a friend. Dont pick and choose depending on the mood, the ups and downs or whatever conflicts you may have. Work it out, talk it out, respect the people who have given you their love and time.

Quote
Ok. I get it. Im shit. Im a horrible selfish person who cant admit shes wrong. Im a stubborn, ugly bitch and I dont deserve anything. Im sorry.

Quote
I just fucking hate myself thats it.

i cant ever catch a break. what a shitty fucking day.

I will update this thread at day's end to see how long it gets.

"You tear me open just see what you want from inside"



"I'm broken and I'm lonesome..."



"How can you see into my eyes?"



"Oh, I wish I could say your name in this status, but then you'd know..."



"Is life such a fleeting thing? I have to think..."
