    In real life, I'm known as a pessimist. But I'm a piker compared to many of you on this board. Many of you actually seem to believe the sky is falling, that things are much worse today than they ever have been, that every single aspect of life is going badly wrong and that we are on the brink of a civilization-ending disaster.

    I think y'all are fucking nuts. Look around. Life ain't so bad.

    Anyone who starts a sentence with "I wanna talk to you about enlarging your... " you gotta worry about.

    another thing, I fucking HATE it when people on FB post "LML!" (love my life). I don't think they do. I think they're just trying to have everyone believe they do, but they are lonely on the inside.

    I know I'm a fucking crazy weirdo. oh well.

    Well, I don't know about that. I haven't read "the secret", whatever that is, and I don't post motivational quotes on my FB page ever, much less all day.

    every internet forum is negative by nature. you have a bunch of people with too much free time in whatever they're doing, obviously bored off their ass so they go online and interact with no social stigmas/boundaries whatsoever since its relatively anonymous. they pull random stories from other forums and then link them on there and misconstruct them.

    My work has never been better, due to smart choices that I made that relate to the economy, and neither has my family life. Not sure what you're complaining about, Debbie Downer.

    I let Bad PapaG loose on this board, but it's mostly in jest, except for you.

    Interesting point. I'll have to admit I don't spend time on other internet forums, so it may be that I don't grok the similarity of this one to others.

    So everyone on the internets thinks the end times are a'comin'? This is much more than a series of tubes, then. It's a series of boobs. And not in that nice soft warm sense of boobs that are attached to actual human females, either.

    Sure it hasn't, "consultant".

    I think it is good that you admit that you are full of shit. It's the first step towards not being full of shit.

    Ok... I could hit myself in the head with a hammer, too. But I choose not to.

    You don't have to be so jealous because I've been able to find a niche in this economy, "Union Lackey".


    I'm not full of shit. I think Obama is an absolute disaster as a President. Worst of all time, if you will. That said, I'd never admit that to the people that help me live my life via my work, because I don't know or care about their political ideology.

    Plus, you've been full of shit since I first read you on the internet. You fooled some people for some time, but not me.

    That would be more impressive if you were my age, or, say, 13. At your age it is just par for the course, no?

    I think you are fucking nuts. If you think this country can survive the course it is on, you are just fucking crazy. Life ain't so bad for me, I don't have kids and my job is still unable to be outsourced. For now.

    I read somewhere that our country has closed 42,000 factories since 2001. If true and I am sure that it is, what are people going to do? Sell Starbucks to people who work at Seattle's Best?

    Give me a fucking break.

    You mentioned in another thread that it had been six years or so since some stupid ass school banned lunches brought from home. The only reason we didn't get pissed about it six years ago is because we didn't know about it. I just watched a video..well, most of a video that informed me of something that I had no idea about. I had heard about some so called "new" math but had no idea just what this stupid ass shit was.

    [video=youtube;Tr1qee-bTZI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tr1qee-bTZI&feature=player_embedded[/video]

    There are probably ten thousand other stupid little bullshit things that morons have done to this country that I am not aware of. We are trying Barry Bonds for lying about doing steroids while 12 million illegal immigrants (more like 40 million) are stealing from us day and night.

    It is absolutely fucking amazing to me that Americans can sit by and watch this circle jerk of a government do what it does without doing anything about it. Then I remember that many of the people in this country don't work, they find a way to milk the government just enough to save up enough cash to live in a shithole with a flat screen tv and the internet and call it a life.

    We have crazy fucking Columbians performing butt implant surgery on crazy fucking morons in the backs of tile stores here in Vegas. In the back of a fucking tile store.

    To change your sky is falling theme to another old story, how about the boy who cried wolf?

    Eventually the fucking wolf came and ate that fucker. Or something like that.
