Rant About Whatever

I'm totally done with the NFL. Good point about the breast cancer exploitation, just another good reason not to watch. My mother survived two different types of breast cancer. First round she was all about the Race for the cure and pink ribbons etc and it probably even helped with her mood over all. The more she learned about it the more she thought it was BS and by round 2 she thought the Kormen organisation was total BS too.

The last sentence though. Most major "research" organizations don't do jack shit for the cause they're supposedly raising money for. It makes me so mad every time I hear people bragging about how many charity walks and bike rides and jump-rope-athons they've done when they have no idea where their money is actually going to. Yes, some organizations do help a lot, but most are absolutely not.
 
Im so fucking sick of living at home. My parents fucking hound on me for absolutely everything i do. Always comparing me to my friends and that I'm not doing enough or that I need to do more with my life. In highschool it was not doing enough clubs or other activities. Now that I'm out of school its not having a 2nd job or some stupid shit like that. Like fuck off. And get off my fucking back about EVERYTHING.

I cant wait to get the hell out of my house

Do you have anyone that would consider renting an apartment with you?

Yeah it sucks. I did a couple of the walks when I was younger for someone I was really close with that had it. Survived the first 2 rounds but just died last year. Idk. I felt this way years before that but it definitely added to the sentiment.

I understand a lot of people involved are just trying to help but I just wish that everyone would really think about the things they support and are involved in.

Was asked to do a rail jam for breast cancer at one point and I said no. Not because I hate women and want them to die, but I just couldn't support it. Also I was asked "to try and work boobs into the setup" which was an instant fuck no on my part.

grrrrrr

Not at the moment, no. Everybody is either off at school or already in a place/not willing to move out.

It's just so annoying. It's an everyday thing.

Yeah the "I love boobies" shit made me fucking angry cuz it wasn't about awareness, it was just a way for assholes to be like "hey look at this funny shirt/bracelet".

Is that really a thing? I was talking about the mindset. Is there actually I love boobies breast cancer shit out there?

Yeah it was a big deal a few years ago b/c it was a way for the school kids to try to wear something that said 'boobies' . It was right up there with the livestrong bracelets.

Well, depending on how badly you want to be out of there, you can try and see if anyone has an open spot online. Sure, you might not know them, but splitting the rent in a large apartment or house is a lot cheaper than going for a single bedroom by yourself.

And if there's a plasma bank nearby, you can make pretty decent money. Not enough to live off of, but you might not have to pick up a second job.

Yeah like OregonDead said, it was a way for edgy douchelords to stick it to the man and wear inappropriate words in school. After seeing one of my favorite teachers and people in the world go through the battle of breast cancer and lose her life, the shit just never settled well with me to this day.
 
So something on TV reminded me of how mean my mom is.

So when we were little me and my sister had these looney tunes fishing poles. Anyway no matter how much time we fished at the pond we could never catch anything. I always wondered why fishing was so hard.

Then eventually when I got more into fishing I learned that you need a hook and bait not a bobber tied to the end of the line.

Mom trolled us hard. She didn't want to touch or deal with fish if we caught them so she left us there slaving away trying so hard to catch a fishy, and feeling inadequate.

I think that's the reason I turned to drinking heavily. Trying to fill the void left in my life where the fishies should have been.

:(

So sad looking back and think of what could have been, the normal life I could have led. Instead I'm just a lost soul wondering the earth wondering what could have been.
 
Having a neurologist tell you college may not be the best idea for you one week before you leave is really fucking sucky. I thought I was doing well but my memory and spelling have been slipping. I'm hoping that with some increase in using my brain it'll get better but I really don't want to waste 40,000 dollars if I'm just going to fuck it up. That and my girlfriend of 10 months and left for college today and it's just weird being without her. She kinda became someone I could depend on a lot and having her leave hit me super hard... Ugh.

Most colleges with have some sort of resources at your disposal for managing anything that impairs your learning. I don't want to say learning disability, because I don't exactly know what you're coming from, but most reputable schools will have procedures in place that allow every student to flourish.

I encourage you to check with your school's disability services, or even sit out this first semester. I started college a year to soon after my TBI, and eventually got kicked out because I didn't use the resources at hand/didn't take time off to let my brain heal some more. Going to school, especially after a head injury, is a really difficult task, emotionally and physically.
 
Really excited for school to start back up. I know this is gonna be a rough semester because of all the jobs I decide to take on and because of school but I'm hoping to get a shit ton out of it. I hope I can deal with 18 credit hours of school, a full time job in marketing(unpaid), and an internship(also unpaid) this year. Basically getting paid in gear and trips all year so I don't know how I'm going to pay for rent haha. I have enough for 6 months but really not sure if I can handle another obligation like a part time job. We shall see though. Stoked on having so much opportunity though. My only concern money wise is rent and food. I live a mile away from school so I'm just walking everyday. My job gets me hooked up with skiing all year so I'm set with that. I just hope it all works out though. I'm probably overthinking this way too much.

Also learned that I am on track to graduate in 5 years(masters) even though I transferred into this program late. I don't know if I want to do the 5 year thing. I want to get my masters but I also wanted to go to a better grad school. It would save a shit ton of money though to go through with the 5 year program. Ah, decisions are fun.

I've been talking to my new roommates and they're all really cool. The 3 of them are friends but they're actually really nice and I'm excited to live with them. I move in on Monday and moving into a villa is way different than a dorm. I had no idea how much shit I actually had until now. I've always thought of myself as minimalistic but I think I am wrong. I have no idea how I am going to fit all this stuff in my Wrangler. Actually, I know that I'm not. So yay for multiple trips!

It's also really weird reading posts on facebook and even NS about kids leaving for college. That was me last year and I still don't even feel like I'm actually a college student. Life is fuckin going by so fast. I wish it would slow down.

Sorry for the pointless babbling. My best friend left for school a while ago and I haven't talked to/hung out with anyone in probably 3 weeks. So I needed to babble haha

Make your own Wilson and grow a beard hehe:) jk.

It's freaking weird being in college rn. I don't feel like I am at all. Met some pretty cool people today though.

And my rant is that I got stuck on an academic achievement floor or whatever that bullshit is. Even though I requested not to be. That means 24 hour quite time. Also my floor is super unsocial. I met like 2 guys who were in the same situation as me though and they were pretty chill.

Also I just realized how absolutely shitty I am with remembering names. I will meet somebody and forget their names a minute later, and I don't want to be that dick who asks a minute later lol. I probably will have more to rant so I'll be back later.
 
Is it bad to say a lot of parents suck or is this one of those "don't do the walk, can't do the talk" sort of deals. I don't know what it takes to raise a kid, but we can at least recognize if a parents are doing a piss-poor job.

Saw a little kid completely unload and berate/verbally abuse his own mom because she wouldn't get him cafe Rio today, after dropping at least $200-300 for their whole family to go do stuff.

Teach your kids some god damn respect. You don't need to hit them, just make sure they know they should just be thankful to be able to go out and do shit, and that their parents are financially able to afford things like that. Some kids across the world can barely find their next meals yet some little twats think its fucking tyranny if mom doesn't get them a quesadilla.

God damn, it really seems like no one is grateful for shit in this country anymore. Its a shame to see.

I blame technology personally. It really takes away from their learning expierances as a child. When I was a kid I'd run and play outside and shit. Now kids are stuck to their Iphones because parents are too lazy to discipline their kids.

Tru, the amount of kids I see glued to their parents iphones or ipads at work is crazy. Some kids are like 3 years old and completely zombified by the game or whatever their playing.
 
alright so I'm licking out this chick and i knew she was on the rag but i really didn't care, i wanted to eat her pussy

so I'm eating this chicks pussy out that is on the rag and as I'm doing some finger work and licking on her clit it starts to taste irony/ starchy

i continue to suck on this chicks clit and I'm finger fucking this chick lick crazy and my tongue and lips are around this chicks clit

i finish fingering this chicks pussy to smithereens and as i pussy my two fingers out this thick blood squirts straight out of her pussy and splatters all over my face

it was fucking disgusting

that's part of it, I think. like you said, lazy parents that don't want to do their job.

I also think money has a lot to do with things, as well. this isn't an anti-rich/wealthy people rant because I know some great people who have worked their fuckin fingers to the bone to be in the positions they are in, but it really does seem that its much easier to throw money at your kid to get them out of your hair for the day than it is to actually instill some fucking values and shit into the little bastards. I hate to say it but I knew a ton of kids in HS that seemed like they were "Accidents", meaning their parents probably didn't plan on having kids, but screwed up when they were boning, and now feel its the worlds job to raise their kids, which in turn creates more issues. knew sooo many people with substance abuse problems that may have been co-related to their upbringings/parents.

hate to jump to conclusions because not everyones perfect, im a fucking mess myself, but its just unfortunate we are all forced to deal with little assholes because their mom or dad doesn't want to do anything about it.

Great? My life was ruined because my mom didn't love me and you call that great? What kind of sick person are you? For me the fish were always on the other side of the water. I never got to catch one, pull it out, and have a conversation.

I wonder what I could have been, had I had the chance to meet a fish at that age. To listen and let it share it's wisdom of the great depths with me. To learn from it's travels of streams, ponds, rivers and lakes. To hear about the times it got away, and the people that let it go.

Oh to go back and be able to change the past. To finally experience life properly, and then be able to finish out what's left of my existence with no regrets.

IF only there was a way. If only.

I vow that if I ever have kids, they won't have to know the pain and sorrow I went through. They will have all the opportunities I never had. We will fish, and they will catch fish(Unless my kids are fucking hopeless morons in which they deserve the life of sadness and alcoholism that accompany the feelings of inadequacy sparked by their inability to catch a fish.)

It pains me deeply to think that when I'm on my death bed, all the places I've gone, people I've seen, and times I've smashed my head won't matter because they won't be enough to fill this void in my life.

And that's why I urge you. Grab a pole, and go fish. Fish while you can, take your kids out, take your dogs out, take everyone out fishing. Live a little and experience the joys I never had. Catch one for me, catch one for us all.

I'm sorry. Some of us weren't working on their PHD at 3 years old. I was wetting the bed, playing teeball, and apparently fishing with bobbers.

Sorry I wasn't running a law firm, or a vascular surgeon by the time I was 10.
 
I totally don't understand what is up with running as a 'sport'. My wife and tons of other people around here are all hyper focused on the Hood to Coast relay that starts tomorrow. From my perspective it seems like the whole point is to get all agro with everyone you interact with for a week or so before the event and then abuse yourself for 2 days straight so can spend the next week + griping about it. I'm sure it is a great high for the people that are into it but I really don't want anything to do with it. I have to pick up my wife at the finish because she doesn't want to ride home in the van and I know it is going to be a total zoo. Last time she did this I was stuck in a trafic jam for hours trying to pick her up.
 
It really fucking pisses me off when people complain about how "hard" their jobs are compared to other peoples. Like they're the only people who ever do anything..

People who bitch about what they do in general piss me off. I get if there are certain parts of your job you don't like. thats understandable. But constantly bitching about what you have to do is so stupid. Just quit, like you aren't doing anyone a favor by sticking around with your negativity.

Right?! One of the dudes I work with had ONE task to do over the span of the entire summer. It took him 9 hours total and he's making it out like he spent so much time helping us out and he's preaching about how we should be thankful about it. Meanwhile he's shutting everyone else out. He did his work and it was good, but we've been here all summer working too. Sometimes putting in over 20 hour weeks unpaid and he has the nerve to call us all out for not working as hard as him... It's fucking pathetic. I told him straight up if he didn't want to work and/or if he's gonna be a baby about it that he should quit so we can find a new person asap to fill in his shoes. He did not take that well, lol.

I feel kind of the same way, even though I was a dishwasher/ in a previous lifetime, and I major in a semi-foodservice heavy field. to be fair, foodservice industry employees get the shit end of the stick even though its an industry that amasses a huge number of profits per year. it really stems down to the owners choice on how they choose to pay their employees, not a whole lot the customer can do to change that.

Tipping is most certainly appreciated, but it deals with the service side of things. If you do a good job, you'll probably get rewarded. People think its BS but there are people out there that do value service, and will pay you for it. it is a nice feeling getting flipped a 20-spot for doing something that probably doesn't warrant it though, but its all good in this hood.

part II of my rant, I should probably have my direct deposits already set up, but it is still shitty never getting a paycheck on time. we got paid Thursday and Friday and there isn't any sign of my check, and some new employee took what was my mailbox, so maybe they are just pulling some passive aggressive bullshit and are mad about something I did. just want this figured out and im getting really tired of all the unnecessary fuck-ups my work always seems to have.
 
Blue Moon beer commercials. This whole story about the orange as a garnish bringing out the flavors and blah blah blah.

The orange as a garnish has nothing to do with them trying to get people to bring out the flavors of the beer, and everything to do with trying to make people feel fancy and special with their little orange on the side. To get that "What are you drinking?" question or have people no that they're drinking something other than budlight.

It's a great marketing strategy, it fucking worked wonders 5 or so years ago but don't tell me it's all about the flavor.

It's a great marketing strategy, it fucking worked wonders 5 or so years ago but don't tell me it's all about the flavor.

commercials are 100% why I can't watch television. I guess its the marketing game but every single thing is made out to be more than it really is and it annoys the fuck out of me. They make it seem like fast food employees seem way more stoked than they really are like who gets this fuckin jazzed up about a big Mac?

Netflix and streaming will be the death of cable.

TV sucks. I watched some American Ninja Warrior last night and although the actual show is pretty entertaining it reminded me why I hate TV.
 
It sucks when you just want to help people out and be a good person to them and they go and take advantage of that. I've been getting screwed over lately and I'm too big of a fucking pussy to stand up for myself because I don't want to upset people and feel too guilty when I do. I've let people walk over me my whole life and it's really getting to be too much but I'm too soft to stand up for myself.
 
These kids need to shut up. I moved into my dorm Sunday and gotten maybe 3 hours of sleep total. I try to go to bed early but these kids are super fucking loud and then I get a migraine. They normally finally quiet down by like 2 and by then I've got a headache that'll stop me from sleeping for at least 4 hours. It's like 6 by the time I finally get to sleep and then my roommate wakes up at like 7:30. Classes start tomorrow and I'm honestly starting to think I can't do this. Shit sucks.

Legit, get used to it. All of college will be like this. I went to a big university coming from a farm, so noise level at night drove me crazy. If its Sunday-Wed. ask them to quiet down. Just say you have a test early in the morning. But really you just have to acclimate to it. I'm still not good at tuning it out, but I've gotten better. But know that I feel your pain. A lot of people don't know how it is being a light sleeper or just needing regular amounts of sleep to perform well on tests. And a lot of people come from huge houses where noise at night didn't matter and they don't realize in dorms/apartments sound spreads so easily.

Thurs-Sat. you just gotta let it slide because its party time and you don't want to be that guy.

My roommates were the same way. I always had early classes but they stayed up so late every night. Then they would complain about me waking up too early. Shit sucks but I learned to sleep when 6 people were in the room hanging out. Ear plugs/ noise canceling headphones + zzzquil did wonders too.

Get on good terms with your roommates. It is not fun living with people you hate. I had some pretty shit roomies but wish we would have gotten along better.
