Caltrops - Tales of the Sword Coast





	[quote name="Quétinbec"][quote name="Horrible Gelatinous Blob"] Maybe you do cry less than most other people would if they were in your position. Maybe. Thing is, of all the sorry motherfuckers in the world, only the sorriest end up in your position in the first place. So, you know.[/quote] Where do you guys get off saying this? I have a bedroom the size of an apartment and sleep in a bed the size of a kitchen. I make more in an hour than most make in a day, and I visit bars where I can choose between any one of 200 beautiful girls. How does that make me among the sorriest of fuckers? I'm one of the luckiest people I know. [quote name="Horrible Gelatinous Blob"] You're right about one thing, though: compared to everything else that's gone horribly wrong with your life, your propensity for uncontrollable crying is completely understandable (given your profound unhappiness) and the least of your worries.[/quote] What the does "cry uncontrollably" mean? I'm as much in control of my tears as anyone is. Say a whore or Filly tells me something (w)horrific. I'll be sad and angry for, like, a couple of minutes. Maybe I'll think about it again if a sad enough song comes on as I'm driving somewhere alone, but that's about it. I'm lucky in that I'm quite a selfish person and unless someone gets violently raped, I'm not THAT bothered. So contrary to your bullshit, I'm not really sad, but I am scared I won't find someone nice to marry, and I'm scared I'll lose my job and have no way to return to this standard of living. Did you know there are people here with geography degrees making more than twice what I'm making teaching English for 4 hours a week!!!! They're making what works out to be $1,500 an hour teaching English. How the fuck can that happen and continue to happen? Even after 7 months, I'm still waiting for someone to tell me it's all a joke and send me home. Last month someone offered me $45/hour to help mark some essays and I turned him down. In Australia, I would have cried with joy to get a job paying $15/hour gross. If I fuck this up, it's such a huge step down, and yet I talk so much shit and do many stupid things.[/quote]
