abe is now! 03-08-2008 02:13 AM

My only luck is that I was born sane. And anyway I am fighting with my jinx... optimism is the better way to do it.

Bullet summed it up rather extensively and exhaustively, rendering the rest of us quite unnecessary. All we can do is to rephrase the things he posted.

I agree with the point that luck is a rather fictional thing. Back in the old days, people made up things to make everyday life more interesting and fun, so I wouldn't be surprised that this 'Good Luck-Bad Luck' was just a game back then... "Black cat crossing your path? -5 Luck for you!" These superstitions were somehow preserved and still exist. If you do something which is believed to bring bad luck, you get nervous, fearing that something bad will happen to you. And, of course, you will blame bad luck when you actually lose something, get fired etc., and not yourself being unattentive and anxious.

And yes, optimism is good path to follow, AIN, so keep going.

Your grandad sounds stupid. Plus, you like Evanescence. 32 strikes against you.

Hobo 03-29-2008 05:22 AM

Man I cheaked out that Evanescence site. Man i've never been so appauled by anything I cheaked out. THEY PLAY THE DEVIL'S INSTRUMENTS.

Vanilla ✜ 03-29-2008 10:58 AM

That's not the only band i like. :rolleyes:

Hobo 03-29-2008 11:55 AM

YOU ARE A TOOL OF SATAN.

Vanilla ✜ 03-29-2008 01:17 PM

Leto 03-29-2008 01:59 PM

Just like every 11 year old who has discovered they like wearing black and listen to dark music. :) You also like Linkin Park and Slipknot or something.

Freedom of expression = Freedom of criticism.

Because Goths don't listen to crappy music and suck so much. Goths are cool. Goths have crazy huge mohawks and jet-black pig-tails and ridiculous piercings and listen to hardcore music and smoke and have good jobs.

Leto 03-29-2008 03:40 PM

Quite possibley the biggest factor: goths are over the age of 12.

In conclusion: Cream, you are not a goth. You're at a stage of pubescence many of us have experienced.

At your age, all boys are rotten little turds. Just wait a few years and they won't be so outspoken of their problem with you.

Let's all hold hands and get back on topic. :)

I'm quite lucky in some respects. I always get myself into stupid [usually drunken] situations and I always come out alright. Hurrah.

But I'm not so lucky in other ways, like my mum dying and such. But most of those things don't actually happen to me so I don't know whether it counts as luck...

Eh... You win some, you lose some.

Strike Witch 04-13-2008 01:12 PM

I'm not wrong, because I never said anything that I assumed was right in the first place.

Hah! Tricky Language!

Leto 04-13-2008 01:52 PM

Ha! You can beat a child! Good on you.

Strike Witch 04-13-2008 02:17 PM

It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
