Whose Life Sucks The Most?

Roop · #1 01-09-2002, 07:56 PM

This is just a poll to see what others' lives are like. First off my mom is crazy, she goes nuts over everything you lose the remote she freaks out, the other day she started stressing because she said she stressed too much. My dad has any anger problem, he doesnt hit me or anything but he can be such a jackass. My sister is the biggest conceited bitch ever. We recently adopted my 3 cousins and if their parents want them back they have to get jobs and have a place to live, its been 4 months and they dont even have jobs and they live in their car. My family is lower middle class and I'm not popular at school(because I'm a smartass and a jackass and a dumbass.) I only have like 6 friends.

Beat That!!!

I can beatcher all!

I live with a dad who bitches constantly, I dont know my mom, but my dad says she was a bitch(sorta like him!), I have exactly one friend that isn't on oddworldian, and I aint sure i have many or any friends here. My whole damn bus seems to have a vendetta agains me, and worst of all my whole damn school insults my lack of athleticism(can we say, jock school?). My only friends are my PS2 and my computer, cause XBox has no games i like anymore(after beating Halo twenty times, it just aint as good). So my life seems to beat yours. But at least I can make a joke outta it. That's better than goin' ah, life sucks lets go get depressed and drunk and high and shoot ourselves! So there ya go!

Danny · #6 01-09-2002, 09:45 PM

Not mine...

My life's pretty good, actually. It's not perfect, but it could be a lot worse. For a start, I could spend my time whinging about the bad things instead of savouring the good things, as you people seem to do...

Anyway, a brief rundown of my life. We'll start with the bad things, shall we?

Okay, my mother is a single parent, and my father is a drunk whom I haven't seen for over a year. We don't have much money, although we get by. I don't have many friends at College.

Good things now.

My mother is really nice. Where other parents would sit up all night worrying about where their 16-year-old son is, she just shrugs and goes to bed, trusting me to let myself in quietly when I get home... I have a wonderful 7-year-old brother, whom I love very much: even if he can be quite irritating sometimes, he's still cute and cuddly.

Although I don't have many friends at College, I do have a reasonable circle of friends outside of college [about 20 or so] who are all at least two years older than me, which is good, because I generally get on better with people a bit older than myself. They all treat me as if I was as old as them (in fact my friend Alison says that she thinks me and Adam would make a great couple, even though he's nearly 20...

), and they don't patronise me [much

]. Even at college I have 4 or 5 people whom I am pleased to call my friends, 2 or 3 whom I am not so pleased to call my friends, but do so anyway [

], and generally get on alright with most people. Even if a lot of them do think I'm a swot, they're mature enough to realise that that isn't a bad thing, as long as I still have a life... Then there's my cousin's friends, in Huddersfield, 5 or so of whom I count as my friends as well as his. Then there's my friends in Haworth. Although I've only really kept in touch with one of them, when I go to visit, I see the others, and they're generally quite pleased to see me...

Despite having little money, my family are happy with the money we have, and I can generally find money for CDs or Pot, even if I don't have the money to buy bigger things like games consoles...

I am doing quite well at college, and am keeping on top of the course, but I still find time to go out and have a social life.

I live in one of the richest nations in the world.

I have a roof over my head.

I will never have to worry about starvation or disease.

The sun is shining.

The world is, basically, not such a bad place if you take it with a pinch of salt...

So for heaven's sake, STOP WHINGING!

You just started this topic because of the post I made last night didnt you? Shame on you...no one should EVER compete for the 'worse life'. I dont have a problem with sharing your problems to help each other get through lifes hardships...but a topic like this is just WRONG!

(hey Dan! I see you postin...why aren't you on MSN!?)

The Magog On The March · #8 01-09-2002, 09:53 PM

This topic is a whining competition in disguise..

Well I have a good life.
I have wonderful parents and a 16 year old brother who is very good to me even though he can be very annoying at times as well. I have a roof over my head and we can pay the bills. I live in a good country. So stop bitchin

Disgruntled Intern · #12 01-09-2002, 11:33 PM

Okay, semi-rant time.
For all of you who feel your lives are so terrible because of parents being parents, or lack of friends..deal with it.
Topics like this seem to indeed be an excuse to whine about trivial problems and make them seem like they're the source of your 'unstatisfying life'...which is really quite sad.
want more friends?
talk to more people. I myself can be quite charasmatic (not to toot my own horn) yet i prefer to stick to my one good friend i can trust, rather than a large group of people i'm unsure about...
but anyway, if you go around with the timid, scared attitude, people can sense it and seem to be automaticly repelled from you...wow this makes way more sense than i thought it would, but still not much sense at all. ...
Your life is what you make it..can't stand your parents? Get out of the damned house.
Sad because you don't have many friends at school?
Talk to more people, don't be afraid to be yourself..you can't be the only person like you in the whole school.
If you were to have genuine problems like a parent that beat you, or you were/are depressed (not intended as a personal shot rachel) Then fine, i could see how problems like that could make your life suck, but like Rettick said, savor the good moments in life, don't focus on the bad....

The Magog On The March · #13 01-09-2002, 11:44 PM

"want more friends?
talk to more people. "
easier said then done..

***Cloverfield*** · #14 01-10-2002, 12:43 AM

I used to be a bit like a few people here, but I've learned to just take things as they are. Looking back I can see that over the last six months I have found gradual change in me and even more so from only a few weeks ago when I first realized that this change was occurring.

When I was in school, I was never popular, I had a small group of friends (no more than 5) and I never had a boyfriend at school (or college for that matter). Even up to about six months ago I'd wonder why I didn't have many friends or anyone to go out with (I have workmates, etc but we never went out very often). I tried to make friends in other places, but it never worked out. I've always had more friends on the internet than real life. I aren't blessed with a good body (being overweight and having a low metabolisim).

But now I look at things differently. I get along with my workmates and have a job that is quite good, and one of them is a friend who I do contact after hours, we play Diablo II online with some other people. If I meet a new friend in RL, great, if not, so be it. My internet friends are very special to me, and are the best friends one could ever have. Who cares if they are interstate or on the other side of the world and I can't "go out" with them. They are very special people and mean a lot more to me than anyone I know here.

I've managed to travel overseas, visit Oddworld. I have a fairly successful Oddworld site. Things generally work out. I'm being positive now, taking up walking as excercise and watching what I eat. It does't worry me that I don't have a boyfriend... if something's meant to happen it will. I have a great family who I get along with really well. I enjoy going on the computer and playing games a lot, who cares if I don't go out ... that's not me anyway... I tried it, I didn't like it. My life isn't perfect, no ones is, and some things still get to me, but I have a long way to go, as the stage where I am at is still a learning stage.

My advice is to just accept things as they are. They are happening for a reason. Who cares if you only have a few friends, cherish the ones that you have.

Abe Babe...

Disgruntled Intern · #15 01-10-2002, 01:47 AM

well said abe babe.
MOTM....it's hard, but not THAT hard to strike up a convo.
I am one of the few rock fans at my school. i have black hair, black clothes, and often paint my nails black, yet i can talk to a person if i try hard enough...
i've found it's easiest to find a common hatred...like an annoying teacher. if you can mock the teacher, or just talk about why you dislike them with another person..bah forget it.

Danny · #16 01-10-2002, 06:16 PM

You're a Goth, Disgruntled? You should come to York, it's swarming with them...

Roop · #17 01-10-2002, 07:04 PM

Dragadon what post did u make lost night? And I'm not complaining I just like talking about my life and I want to know what everybody elses life is like. I thought hmm what is a title that would get ppls attention, certaintly not My life. I wasnt complaining about my parents but merely telling u about them, my dad is really funny my mommy is funny too but not intentionally, and I dont have many friends but I think I have enough.

Disgruntled Intern · #18 01-10-2002, 08:00 PM

well Rettick..(your real name is Dan right? if you'd prefer that i adress you as dan, i will)
i am a goth, but not in the conventional sense.
while i AM depressed, it's not self induced.
i never wallow in my own self pity, and try to enjoy the better things in life..I'm some what morbidly fascinated with death, yet i have never made any attempts at suicide...yet i do enjoy some of the perks of the goth life style...
hmmmm
hey if i had the Cash, i'd be out there in a heart beat...how far will eleven hundred bucks get me?
lol

Danny · #19 01-10-2002, 08:43 PM

[Yes, I would prefer to be known as Dan]

Why are you depressed?

Sl'askia · #20 01-10-2002, 09:24 PM

its the 'An important message about myself' topic. You must be like me and just not read every single topic...

Disgruntled Intern · #21 01-10-2002, 09:55 PM

Dan, that's the thing about depression, most people don't know why they are depressed untill it's over...
i am seeking proffesional help, and he's sorta helpin me out..sloooowly...

Majic · #22 01-11-2002, 12:44 AM

Yea, I dont think my lifes that good but thats prolly why im dpressed...... Yea, thats why i like computer. i can hide myself, people dont know me so i cant really be made fun of. im not exactly attractive, im overwheight somewhat and im not athleticly fit. my parents dont really help, they want me to do best and never notice what i do right. i guess im not that bad, but im not seeing proffesionals i mean im kinda young but thats why i like things like forums and aim i can express myself at something im good at, even though its probably not the best idea

but yes i am helping myself.......now i kinda feel like an idiot thats ignoring himself still....

Surfacing · #23 01-11-2002, 11:27 AM

Well i think my life is pretty dull and average, well though i'm just living with the one parent and my dad's a millionair but his a ****ing tight ass when it comes to sharing his money with others including his own son...! my mum makes like half of what he does so obviously i don't get everything though i could if my dad was'nt so damn stengie, I could live life like a millionaire but no my dad had to be the biggest tight ass in the world, well i don't care bout him any more have'nt seen him in about a year and half, and the last birthday he saw i got jackshit from him as a gift(great birthday) His is driving around in a mercedaes benz s class while my mum drives around in a mitusbishi, plus he lives in a mansion, just typeing this is refueling my anger towards him, infact if there is a soul i would like to c get tortued to death it would defiantly be him...

Disgruntled Intern · #24 01-11-2002, 12:38 PM

so surfacing, do you dislike your dad because he doesn't share his money, or because he's not in your life?

Danny · #25 01-11-2002, 10:51 PM

Can I give anyone [e.g. Majic Abe] some advice? If you lack friends, hiding behind a computer screen will not do you any good. You need to get out there and socialise. I don't mean this offensively in any way, I just think it's something you ought to know [if you don't know already]...

Well Disgruntled Intern
him not sharing the cash with me lead to him not being in my life.

Come on people U shouldent think that about your family. Ther are some people in this world who have absolutly nobody and they die young. It is very unfortunate that some people think this. That is why I am alweys praying for them. because I know they could get through. They just can't accept it at the moment. They are going through difficult times but it's not the end of the world. Be positive about your lives. Because in the end it will pay off greatly!

The Magog On The March · #28 01-12-2002, 01:39 AM

Surfacing, I know EXACTLY how you feel about the whole dad thing.. If it were up to my dad, I'd probably get one music CD the entire year and maybe something mediocre for my birthday, like something withen the 20-30$ price range.
