Lack of rants.

For my current state of mind, I refer you to the quote of me in Arix's sig. I knew that thing'd come in handy some day.
Thank god for my giant fluffy orca of cuddliness, or I would surely have gone mad by now.

Ok, rant about the thing called male, feel free to scroll past.

Ok, why can't guys get it in their head that getting someones phone number isn't a big deal? This guy called me 15 times tonight while I watched a movie, all in a fricken row. Then shows up knocking on my door at about 11 tonight, wanting to know what is going on. Last night he called and called, and called, when I did answer he was talking about how quiet it was at my place. Then his brother shows up at 1 am getting me out of bed.

Is the phone number like the way in the door or something? Yeah he lives by me, I have known him a few years, did I do wrong letting him know this little bit of info you can look up on dexonline?

Ok, not a happy camper, make that two visits tonight. badday.gif



On a side note, giant fluffy orca of cuddliness?
Tervic2007-03-12 08:25:29
The giant orca of cuddliness would be exactly what it sounds like. It's a four foot long (or more, never measured) stuffed orca from Ikea that my brother got me for my 19th birthday because he knows I'm a huge fan of marine mammals. It is soft, fluffy, and has much sentimental value, what with me being off at college and only talking to my brother maybe once a day instead of all the time (yes, we are very close siblings. Shared a room for 15 some-odd years despite having the option of separate rooms).

So yeah. When I'm feeling like crap, the Giant Orca of Cuddliness plus the fleece blanket my mom made for me when I was on the high school swim team generally helps to cheer me up.

EDIT: I might add that the blanket is blue with little fishies on it.

I think this may be a personality thing more than a male/female thing. Still annoying at best, creepy at worst. He's calling because it's so quiet at your place?
Ashteru2007-03-12 13:51:44
See, that guy is creepy. Should like, block his phone or something. I hardly phone my girlfriends at all, much less random people I only got the number from from going out once.

My own rant: I want my password for Ash unscrambled. Just to be able to check in once in a while. sad.gif

Thank you for posting that, I was going to make an angrier version but stopped myself. dry.gif

I think he's just lonely and you're his friend and all, or excited about it. But yeah, calling that many times in a row is just creepy, even if he hadn't meant it to be. Pretty glad I've never had to undergo something like that.

So, lesson for everyone: Don't call someone unless you have something to say. :|

Sounds like somebody is desperate for a new friend and doesn't know what to do.
Aiwendil2007-03-12 16:41:21
Well now, time for my own rant.

I'm getting really tired of everything. I don't have the time or energy to commit to so many things so... I might be forced to pick and choose. Which always sucks. If I didn't have people to talk to about it I'd probably have melted into an emo puddle by now.

You know. Here's what I hate most. I hate people who take advantage of the fact that I try to be there for people. I try and make people's days a little brighter, and I HATE people who just latch on and suck me into their lives, and then when they see I'm having a good damned day for once, they have to go out of their way to message me with a long, stupid speech about how hollow and empty and depressed and useless they are and how no one loves them, and try to push guilt onto me if I tell them that I'm not there as a toy to feed their self-inflicted depression. I hate people who have to take advantage of me being nice to them. I hate all the names I get called when I tell them I can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. I hate people shouting that there is no way I care about them if I'm going to walk away from this situation right now because for my sake, I need ONE GOOD DAY for ONCE. Just once. One time I would like a good day, and for someone to care about -me- enough to GRANT ME THAT DAY WITHOUT MAKING ME FEEL GUILTY FOR CARING ABOUT THEM. Is that too selfish? It sucks and I hate it. I suppose I could always become a cruel and heartless psychopath, would that be better? Vampire people, leave me alone. I'm tapped.

EDIT: I'm going to go hug my cuddly creature. A plush dog that I named Alexander...had him since I was 8, snuggled him every night since...13 years of snuggly comfort!
Unknown2007-03-13 06:17:51
I'm going to call you names as well. Names such as kind, helpful, friendly, sociable and just plain awesome. Honestly, I know how it feels to have that feeling of wanting just one good day, one day where nothing bad happens. And although I can't make that happen, what I can do is to let you know that others do care for you. I just want you to know that you have done so much for me, and should you find your reserves of patience or anything running low, just LINK CAERULO.

comfort.gif Awwww, Arkzrael, if it wouldn't creep you out, I'd give you a big, ol' "I know your pain" hug. Too bad there isn't a snub button in real life, though ignoring might work, too wink.gif

My ranty-rant: I wish I had my glasses already so I could like play more than 5 seconds! The good thing is I have been getting lots of things done, like drawings for people, ever since I lost 'em clap_1.gif

@Ark: I've given up counselling people unless they're one of the few people I consider good friends. This sounds harsh, but it just isn't worth it. I found they never actually took any of my advice beyond saying "yeah, you're right" and would be back complaining within a week. I cannot stand it when people complain and do nothing to fix the problem or keep at the same actions that cause the problem.

Try just telling people to bugger off, it works for me tongue.gif.

With Quidgy on this. Too stressful when people 'latch' on to you.

Also with him as well. While I do enjoy helping people, and I have helped a few cope with problems.. I overall am fine with listening to someone vent or rant for awhile, and then I offer a solution. But yeah, like Quidge, if you keep complaining over the thing and do nothing to rectify or fix the situation, then you need to shut up.. bluntly put.

To those who say, 'Well, I'm scared to do something.' Well. That's fine, but you eventually have to get more confidence in yourself to get things done. After all, never know until you try eh?

For example! Boss getting on your nerves? BLACKMAIL! Works in IRE, Works IRL too. >.>

Yes, I have blackmail on ALL OF YOU SERENS. Plus a Pooka to enforce my will upon it. <.<
