Fuck platitudes. There is no script to life and some people don't move up as far as others. What is important is that everyone have the ability to pay their bills and have a decent education. An economically stable society and educated society is better for everyone no matter where they end up.

I get really upset with anyone who think for example an older person working as a fry cook is a loser because it is a teen or college student's job. Who the fuck is working at those places when the the kids are in school?

Lower pay does not mean unimportant.

Damn right. I teach. We practically invented lower pay. But then what we do is so inconsequential. Tongue

You know what makes me crazy? My mom tells me "you're taking good steps". She says "yeah I understand". It's as if she thinks that what I have been going through is just good. You know what, it's not good. Nothing about it is good. This is my life, not a bunch of stepping stones to eventually get to my life. I am living my precious life right now, not in the future. That is all anyone ever gives a shit about is the future. As if everyone is going through the same fucking thing. Well let me tell you, if everyone is going through the same thing as me I seriously fucking fear for this world, because the world is a fucked up place.

Well, it's not, and if you keep using it as such, you're going to get banned.

Every day I come here and post something to see if anyone actually has the decency to make a respectful response. It finally happened.

When have you ever done anything to earn any respect around here? You're not here for discussion, obviously, and it's extremely rude.

While it is obvious that you, chas, and cthulhu have had run-ins before with MusiclovingAtheist, to anyone who is reading just this thread, you guys are acting like people with a serious PMS problem. He didn't call any of you out on this thread and he's going through a rough time sorting things out for himself. I do not consider the post to be a "dump" on the forum. I want people to see that my humanity has not been affected by my loss of imaginary gods.

Please keep your comments relevant to the current thread or at least explain yourself better..
