26SidedCube Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Alright, so maybe not as drastically as the title suggests, but here's the idea and I know that each and every one of us is guilty.. A few weeks ago one of my friends and I got on to the topic of how your family is, in most cases, the only group of people who will TRUELY accept you for who you are. Sick, sad, depressed, or diseased they will welcome you with open arms and help you out. Now, to put that into perspective... think about your closest friend and all the negative shit you say about him in your head if you deal with him on a regular basis... I do it, even with my best of friends. It's like you slowly pick up on all the lame-ass traits of the company you keep, slowly gathering ammo for the day the two of you might bump heads. You don't have to dwell on it, or even think about it all the time, but you keep that shit in stock... just in case. All the shit they wish they could forget about themselves that you might be guilty of similar but you're their friend.. so you know how to use it against them and with precision. All the same personal cards you know you've got deep down to have pulled, but only by those who you let into your processes and really know how to get at your personal shit. Now my questions: Why the hell do people do this shit? And how come when you're on the train or walking down the street and you catch someone making eye contact they almost always look away? Why not at least a nod or an eyebrow raise? Why not stare the motherfucker down if you want him to know you'd like to crack his face? Why are people, in general, so fucking coy, sheepish, and boring? Or maybe it's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26SidedCube Posted March 7, 2004 Author Share Posted March 7, 2004 Re: Re: Sunday Morning Herald: Your friends are dying to hate you. Originally posted by BOZACK p.s. i'm intoxicated. At least you're a happy e-drunk. I'm not saying all the time, or even more often than not.. but I do it, and if you don't that's pretty fucking casanova. A few of my boys are like family, too. I'd raise their kids (if they had any) if something were to happen to them, but it doesn't change the fact I do this shit... but hell, my friends and I never fight, we just talk about shit like this when it's obvious someone one's annoyed with someone else's shit. ...cauuught in a landslide, no escape from.....

Southern kid Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Hmmm. When people make eye contact with me I say something, depending on the nature of the eye contact. If it's a girl and she's hot I most definitely spin the other way and say hello. If it's a creepy mother fucker looking to see if my white ass is looking like I need a fix (I live right on crack street! WEE!) I put on a "No, go away." face and look away, sometimes briskfully picking up the pace. So anyway, I guess that's not normal, ya know, saying "Hi!" or "Nice day, ain't it?" Hmmmmm. I live in a bubble that smells kinda like vanilla and farts. I too suck at the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
