glitterboypilot Eltanin Sadachbia glitterboypilot I know, it is just highly annoying, to have to start over yet again with no close friends... this would be the 3 or 4th time that this happened to me. I am not trying to sound complainie... I am starting to think, Nice guys really do finish last... Try making a group of friends... Yeah it sounds like more heartbreak, when you think of it as 'more people to hurt/betray/letdown...' But really, having only one friend at a time puts allot of strain on that one person to always be the one to be there for you when you need them, especially if they have other friends they need to share their time with... No one is capable of handling that responsibility unless they are spouse material, and even then there is room for friends outside the partnered sphere... Remember also that friends do come and go, they aren't usually permanent. That's okay though, because you learn something from each of them... And even when they disappear off of your radar once in awhile, they will reappear later down the road... I understand, I just wish whole groups wouldn't leave at once.
If I actually want to bother with these friends that everyone keeps talking about, i find them through gaming shops or comic book shops or pre-owned movie/video game stores. |

Of course when you have kids looking at you like you are spouting something from the necronomicon when you mention that hey you guys actually comes from a movie called the goonies and not from 4chan or the wolfman has nards comes from a movie called monster squad and not from 4chan or that before super mario bros there was a game called mario brothers....or that you actuall went to the theatre to watch movies back in the day or that you know about a tv show called blackstar....stupid kids anyways...need to stay off my ******** lawn |

I'm going to vent something here...
I'm tired of having to hide my atheism, though I do so for basically my own safety.
I've been an atheist for several years, and made the mistake of letting my atheism be known in High School. Because of this, I was bullied a lot, called a devil worshiper, and sometimes avoided like the plague. I no longer tell people my religious views, or I convey them in ambiguity.
Even in the workplace, when one of my co-workers ask me what my religious affiliation is, I tell them that I'd rather not say, in fear that I might lose my job (I know that this is not allowed because of discrimination laws, but they could find or make up some other reason to terminate me as an employee after learning this fact).
I just don't understand. Why is such an awful picture painted around atheists? I feel like as soon as I say I'm an atheist, people get this idea that I literally do eat babies, that I draw satanic symbols in blood, and dance naked under the moonlight try to suck out your soul. emotion_8c

Hey now..I honestly don't know what happened to Timmy. I tend not to know their names, easier to deny knowledge that way. |

Ontological Empiricism rmcdra My depression is starting to get the better of me. It seems like whenever things are starting to look good and improve, I find myself more negative and miserable then ever during these times I should be enjoying these small "wins". My life is really good despite a few upsets. I do enjoy life but there are things that I would like to improve that I believe that I should have control over but I don't. Its difficult to talk to people irl about it since I feel like I'm getting blown off as ungrateful, being negative/mopey, whatever. I know it's been some time since you last posted this, but I was just wondering how you are doing with your depression and such. People often don't understand those who are depressed, and they often get annoyed with the negativity because I doubt they've ever actually been there to know what you're going through.
Edit: Thank you. How have things been going with your boyfriend?
Edit: Thank you glitterboypilot. I know I haven't been talking much. I'm sorry for that. |

I'm sorry I am only on here to vent anymore, but...
I was told I would get every other weekend off and 2 days a week off... I am getting 1 day a week off, and yesterday was the first day that day off fell on a weekend... Not to mention the split shift that have 4 hours between them... I go in for my first shift by 6 or 7am, and I get to leave at 11pm, just to go back in the next day at 6 or 7... by the time I add drive time in, I am only getting 4 hours of sleep if I'm lucky... The place is too far from my house to go home in between shifts...
I pretty much spent the whole day off yesterday falling asleep where I landed...
All this for minimum wage...
I did agree to the couple double shifts a week, but I expected them to be back to back, not 5 hours in the morning and 6 at night... I was expecting a 16 hour double... it would be nice to be paid for 16 hours straight and go home...You know, go to work, stay all day, and come home when it's done in time to get an alright sleep... but having my day occupied for 19 hours (without the 45min one way drive 2 times a day) by work, and only getting paid for 11 hours sucks.
I am already looking for a new job... I feel guilty, because I was really wanting a job so bad, and now that I got one, it is just a month into it, and I am already wanting to say "shove it"...
