Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

Considering that you can run most vehicles on alcohol, it would make more sense to be able to buy booze with fuel points.

Feedly, you are not good, and I hate your face.

Quit marking things I have read as unread. I fucking don't even.
There are very few things about Feedly that are better than Google Reader... and right now I can't think of any of them because Feedly can't keep track of what I've read. That's the primary purpose of an RSS reader.

I don't like that the home screen tells me I don't have enough subscriptions and I need to refresh just to see anything.

It tells me that, too, and I have 87 subscriptions.

But feedly has gotten better about remembering what I've read, abarring a few hiccups during the transfer to the cloud from google's servers.

That said... yeah, it's no google reader.
 
Fucking... fuck everything

So tired of being alone all of the goddamn time. Everyone is gone or busy, now my phone is not sending texts through, I am just fucking supposed to be trapped in my head's misery, I guess. Jesus fucking Christ.
 
Went to a damn Nathans today because the boss told me to be there at 11...still going through my background. I don't know why they didn't do this BEFORE I came all the fucking way to Atlantic City but WHATEVER! Also it'll take 9 to 13 days apparently. For the love of fuck, just say you won't hire me its so much simpler!

I wish I didn't need to sleep. Just checked out another armful of books, and I'm too tired to go on... Every day of summer has been busy, and I still wish I had more time to do stuff.
 
Can't I just be on a beach in the Bahamas, having pina coladas and mojitos and swimming with fish; still cripplingly lonely, but likely to die sooner from sharks, crazy tourists, drowning, or alcoholism; the happy truth of the quickened sweet release of death making the empty void of meaninglessness slightly more bearable?

To paraphrase Dilbert, it helps to NOT think of yourself as an organic pain collector hurtling toward oblivion.
 
When you are depressed, you can't remember what it was like when you were happy, and you can't imagine ever being happy.

But you have been happy before, and you have future happiness ahead of you.

There's nothing I can do to solve your current depression, but please do not allow your depression to lie to you about your future. Do not accept those lies it is telling you.
I question that I've been significantly happy before. External circumstances improve, internal ones continue in misery. I also have long believed that the claim future happiness exists is itself a lie; there is no guarantee of such a thing.

Of course there's no guarantee. There's no guarantee of anything in life. You have to at least allow for the possibility of happiness. If you don't, you'll never find it.[DOUBLEPOST=1372888489][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, happiness can be different for everyone. Some people, myself and I'm guessing you too, will never be completely happy. There will always be that feeling deep down that even though you're surrounded by people who love you, you're alone. That doesn't mean you have to be unhappy and hate life. Just don't let the thought that fairy tale happiness may never happen to you bring you down. It'll only make it worse.
 
Well I'm not like... delusional. I don't think everyone but me is floating in a dream world of perfect joy. But I guess pain > happiness and that's some kinda bullshit to me, and I see no sufficient cause to believe the future will swap that proportion.
 
Eh, it did for me. I don't know that I was any worse than you, or even as bad. I was 32 and had never been in a serious relationship. I pretty much became a ghost. Did my best to stay out of everyones way, and never went anywhere. I was so incredibly lonely. I'm even willing to admit that if I didn't drink enough to not care I'd cry myself to sleep. Life sucks some times. Some times it doesn't. Just keep trying to make it better, otherwise you'll stay in the same hole.
 
For me:

1 Existential Crisis
2 Setting Goals
3 Acheiving Goals
4 Contentment
5 Complacency
6 Crushing Ennui of Content Stable Life
GOTO 1
 
Just woke up (couldn't sleep at all last night) after a bad dream that reminded me of dropping out of my teaching practicum.

And then I go online to see someone tweet, "That is an awesome pig detective." Fucking hell. I've not really said anything about it publicly, but Dill really does look more like a pig than an armadillo on the cover. Maybe I'll look for another artist next time.

Or, you could make fun of it in the next book. Like have someone who has never met Dill call him a pig which would lead Dill mystified for a second, possibly have him look into a mirror as a tag. Up to you.
 
Some days you wake up and think ... what if? You just ponder that one chance for everything to go right. That one big missed opportunity. I thought about it today and while some days it doesn't get to me, today it did. I just wish ...

... that The Amazing Screw-On Head had been picked up as a series.

I know man. I know.

I own the DVD of its one episode. Sometimes I just... I just hold it. You know?

CAN'T. BROFIST. ENOUGH.
Certainly an interesting thing to add to the character's repertoire. Or history/origin story.
