I hereby proclaim for myself the eternal right to bitch.

[Mr_Cynic]

I can bitch about anything and everything because I feel like it.  Expect me to exercise this right a fucking lot.

[schneereich]

[Mr_Cynic]

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others.

[Castille]

lol so that means he can bitch as long as it doesnt upset anyone?

[schneereich]

screw limits drawn around others - let the man bitch! and if it annoys people, good! it will help me sell earmuffs.

Don't blame one for the emotions one inflicts upon them self.

r u saying that you are never affected by the world around u and thus have total comtrol over your emotions?

[Mr_Cynic]

Some people do.

[The Immortal Panic]

There is a measure to all things. What many of you are failing so miserably at is your ability to distinguish such measures. Outside stimuli alters a persons emotional balance, this is a simple truth. HOWEVER, all people have the ability, created by thier desire for it, to control the affect of such stimuli. In example of this phenomenon I point to myself. Injuring my back and leg in football, forcing me to quit track and live in constant immutable pain for the past year, Having my parents divorce, contemplating an imminent move to New Zealand by myself with no money, working, losing some of my closest friends, being forced into a breakup with the love of my life by way of fate, nearly dying of Internal bleeding and then Asphyxiation in the same week, saying goodbye to the few friends I have left, wisdom teeth, constant fatigue, asthma, losing my childhood home without warning, tragic death of a friends mother, and estrangement from my father and his side of the family, all in a single year. my senior year of high school. So don't FUCKING BELIEVE FOR A GOD DAMN SECOND THAT I DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO TALK HERE! That being said, and all the above being true, I maintain a generally happy demeanor. So yeah, people who are habitually unhappy CHOOSE to be that way. I used to, I was considered clinically depressed before all of that happened but once I learned what REAL hardship was about, I grew up. Now everyone stop this nonsense and do the same. You CAN control your attitude and emotions if you recognize that other people and painful acts can affect you but they should NOT control you.



Finally, I am a happy man, and will kill anyone who pity's me.

[schneereich]

um, not to trivialize all the suffering you've gone through, but at least youre moving somewhere cool. every time i moved a long distance, i ended up somewhere worse. scotland to california, california to connecticut, and finally connecticut to florida. im kind of at the bottom of the barrel now. well, except for my friend who moved to mississippi...

anyway, unless youre a zen master or something, you can only control your emotions to an extent.

[Castille]

well yes it is possible to maintain a happy demeanor at all times. pretty much anyways. but a happy demeanor and being happy are to very different things. I can act happy all the time and come off as a very happy person however this does that mean that people you truely care about cannot hurt you. Yes it is possible to gain emotional control and blockout some of the effects but by the virtual fact that you are human you cannot control everything. I do not disregard your right to give imput but i also claim a signifigant right myself however i have no intention of broadcasting these reasons on the internet all im saying is that it is amazingly annoying when someone you care about hurts you or does somehting hurtful and then blames you for being upset

[schneereich]

yeah, faking happiness is easy enough. you wouldnt have suspected that i was really depressed between october and january, would you? and it didnt help that we were being told about depression every other day in psych

[1ofkind]

AKA we fucking forget about being responsible for our actions as we slip into an unconscience state of mind blinded by emotions. Blah, blah blah, same shit different day.

Personally I haven't lost my temper for the things people have said, and never can I ever remember doing so for what I know I can easily forgive. On the other hand when people say things to me to try to get me to do things: suggestive usage I do get angry. My boss almost got himself told to go fuck himself a couple of times. The fact - the fact is that society isn't ever going to get anywhere if we act like one can't say certain things while they can. It's just not a real problem, but I'm alone here on this. I'm always alone.

[schneereich]

i dont really get upset because someone insults me. i get angry at incompetent people (like the stupid whore that coordinated community service hours at my school). and of course, i go into a bad mood when i screw something up.
