Oh WOE Is Me!

I get really tired of going through life seeing people sitting in their little porta-corner being sad for reasons they love to come up with.<br><br>You know what - you don't have it that bad. There are people in this world with real problems, and honestly, not everything is about you. If I wear a blue sweater, it's not because I want to show the world that my blue sweater is better than the one you wore last month. If I say, "I hate it when people are wasteful," it is -not- a jab at the method you use to wash dishes! If the sun goes down, it's not because it hates you! That would be <span style="font-weight:bold">hilarious</span>, but unfortunately, it is not so. If you or your parents are loaded with money - I don't want to hear about how you have it so rough, unless it's not (and by not I mean <span style="font-weight:bold">not</span>) related to your incredible financial stability. If you didn't get a new laptop this month, bite me! If someone picks on you for your religious tolerance, don't push the boundaries of mine.<br><br>Gah!!! -flails- I just get tired of people whining and moaning and complaining about really stupid things, when it just makes you look like a shallow, narrow-minded jerk. And just so everyone knows, and I'll write it in a bright shiny color so you can't miss it, <span style="color:blue"><span style="font-weight:bold">this is not directed at you!</span></span> This is a general rant about something that bothers me in, well, general! If you think this is directed at you, it's not my fault you think you're a whiny corner sitter :P<br><br>In all seriousness, though, get out of the corner. There are spiders in corners! :wink:

    <br><br>Haha I love that line. I quite agree with you. I have a friend who just gave me a phone call last night and whined about nothing. Yes sometimes we need to do stuff like that but you could at least sound a little more mature about it. My friend is depressed cause the guy she likes sorta secretly is moving across state. She didn't ONCE ask me how I felt about it and the guys sister is <span style="color:black">my best friend</span>. It just shows that this generation is becoming more and more about me! You have to have what you want Now or else the world will hear about it. Like Xae said this isn't pointed at anyone. My friend was used as an example and she doesn't plan vp and thats the reason why I used her as an example.

  • I don't mean to be rude or seem like some perfect, extra caring person who acts like they're better then others, but you never know what really is going on with some people. People may be wealthy or seem like they're spoiled, but they really could be going through a hard time at home. Think about it this way. You're going through a divorce or a dealth or some other bad thing. Then you come to school where everything is just crazy. When you've already got a lot of annoying, frustrating crap to worry about, it can be easier to whine about stuff that seem like little things to other people.<br><br>I'm just saying, some people really are spoiled brats that want everything to be perfect and go their way, and others are just going through a hard time. That's just my opinion. :|

  • Oh, I absolutely agree, which is why I specifically refer to "stupid reasons" =D I of all people can understand the bigger ones - and it is perfectly reasonable. Money is no factor in emotional upsets, and it irritates me when people act as though money solves everything.<br><br>However, being a nasty person because you feel bad without trying to communicate the reason for your actions to those around you just isn't acceptable. I am going through a lot. My best friend is getting shipped off to war, my grandmother has been diagnosed with the "bad" lung cancer, I have a stalker, my fiancee's borthday was this week and I'm dead broke, and I'm trying to get into school. I'm not a nice person to be around, however, online I try to avoid places that stress me out, and offline I suck it up and fake being happy. Is it what I want to do? Heck no! But it's what I have to do, because it's not the fault of those around me that I'm upset.<br><br>I know I tend to hold those around me to the same standards I hold myself, but... if I hold myself to that standard, is it really so unreasonable? I'm not sure, but I do know that if we were all a little less selfish we'd all be a lot happier.
