Infested by human scum.
Hardrock Llewynyth
Every day it gets harder to tolerate this miserable cesspit.
People are total shit. Unrelieved and intolerable. Pathetic whiny, lazy,
self-important crap.
Backstabbing and petty. Few ever grow past being petulant children.
Even the best seeming are utter slime at their core. Just give them the
chance and they will stomp on you, screw you, steal everything they can
get their greedy little hands on. There is no such thing as a good person,
merely one who hasn't yet been given the opportunity to let his true self
show.
They live in pain, but seek to ignore or deny it; and to make themselves
feel better they inflict that pain on others, making all those around them
miserable so that they can seem better off by comparison. Shoving each
other farther down in the slime so they can avoid the fact that they are
themselves drowning in it.
The few who aspire to rise above the wretched morass are ridiculed,
ignored, abused, and pounded down. People don't like being reminded of
their, not failures because that would assume that they tried at some
point, but their utter lack of any effort to improve their own lot.
Why the fuck do we even bother wallowing in this cesspit. Are even the
best of them nothing more than the few turds that manage to float to the
top?
Why do i even bother tolerating this shit? Why am i even here?
Sometimes i think the only reason most of us bother putting up with the
stench of mankind is just sheer apathy and inertial. "Who would fardels
bear..."
Fuck this world and all who live in it.

Welcome to life.
No where in the welcome manual did it say that life would be easy, fun, or
pretty all the time.
You run around making all these assertions that people are backstabbing and
petty...and all important... etc.

Have you considered that perhaps you were PROJECTING?
I admit it...I felt sorry for you... I thought "hey...he's a nice guy...and

Thats why you can ignore them. Or reduce them in your eyes to stumps. Those
who fit the aforementioned categories are one of two things to a meaningful
person: Obstacles and objects of contempt/pity.
I work with them, I've lived with them, I've become something better than
them.
They are pustulating sores on humanity's rosy red starfish, and they're not
worth your time.

I still maintain that there are humans who are worthwhile. If there were
not, I would simply give up as life itself would not be worth living. The
discovery is part of life, and you can allow it to crush you like a bug, or
you can suck it up, pull it in, and get on with the job.
That job being existence.
No one became a better person by sitting on their ass and moaning about how
other people ruined things for them. They became better people because they
rose above them.
I'm off to Europe this year. I'm taking the girlfriend to Disneyworld
because it's a lifelong dream of hers. Looking at those people who were
slime in my past, I see them either dead, on welfare, drunken and lost, or
simply coasting through a meaningless existence.
Living well is the best revenge.

That is assuming i exempted myself from that category.
As Eileen so astutely pointed out, i fit right in with the rest of the
festering boils on the ass of society. The only thing that sets me
apart from them is that i happen to recognize myself for what i am.
I'm sure you won't have to look hard to find plenty of others who
agree. Your own posts made the same point not so long ago.
Ask around here and you'll find quite a lot more.
I may have been more at some point in time. Whatever it was i had
then that set me apart i lost. Along with everything else i've lost.
Personally, i've found that the only reason that anyone bothers to
consider me of any worth at all is through sheer ignorance, or refusal
to look too carefully.

Not to argue with the assessment, I may not disagree with it in fact, but
simply put you can succeed is spite of all against you or allow it to defeat
you. The only difference between one and the other is who wins.
I intend to win.
You, however, appear to want to lose, or at best achieve a draw.
This is not what qualifies as something I consider a good thing.

No one loses anything. They choose to rid themselves of aspects of
themselves either because they want to, or they mistakenly believe they have
to. Decide what it was you 'lost' and get it back.

The user's Manual of Life, Time, and Other Crap You Might Need to Understand
is, generally, handed out in abundance during those early years of life when
one is more content to gurgle, coo, and laugh after pasting one's forehead with
rice cereal and banana mush. Unfortunately, we usually end up dismantling it
with our uncoordinated digits, gumming the pages into wads of papier-mache, and
then swallowing them, thereby transforming the Knowledge of All That Is into a
brown, liquid goo.
The only information with which we are left is the understanding that paper is
an impressive source of fiber.
Go figure.

You know, if you remotely believe what you say, there's simply no point
in hanging around on this vale of tears unless you simply want to
experience the proof of your words, instead of merely suspecting that
all gloom is based in reality and all hopes of happiness are merely
wishful thinking.

Wow... Hardrock, have you ever stopped to consider that maybe you only see what
you want to see?
Okay... hold that thought, but don't process it yet, because it probably means
something different than what you've read it as.
All people suffer from the same unfortunate condition - we always think we're
right. And it doesn't matter what the belief is, we will always seek out the
events which affirm that belief from the unorganized complex jumble that is
life.
Everyone does this. There are, of course, some cases that are more extreme than
others. Religious people will find acts of God where another might only see a
flood. Superstitious people might find a lucky hat where another might just see
their favourite team make the play-offs. Those damn "rahawa" fuckers see...
well... okay, I don't know what they see, but I sure as hell don't see it. But
it just goes to show the weaknesses of anecdotal evidence. Each has a belief
and either clings to specific shards and fragments of events, or distorts their
perception of events to back it up.
You're very obviously not a ShineyHappyGoff. And you allude to being hurt by
something/someone/many things/many people. I'm not saying that these aren't
real, or serious, or significant. But whatever the situation, it seems that
your perception of humainity has huge differences from what mine is.

And by enlarge they seem to prosper by it.
Realising this and *not* following their example either makes you
better than them or stupid, depending on your viewpoint.

Maybe the stupid, selfish and greedy outnumber the good, but there
*are* good people, perhaps; good and bad are always relative values
anyway.

Um.... i never revealed any welfare fraud. AAMOF, i stated quite the
opposite. I got right the fuck off it when i realized that i didn't
actually need it anymore; even though i could have faked my way
through it quite convincingly. Like quite a number of people i knew
at that time did.
But then, if you actually bothered to read what i was saying, you
wouldn't find it quite so easy to take your pointless little
pot-shots.

I disagree with that. There are good people, but they're few and far
between. Still, they're there. Perhaps you need to finetune your
procedures for finding them.
>The few who aspire to rise above the wretched morass are ridiculed,
>ignored, abused, and pounded down.
Yes, but those who do aspire to do so need to learn to ignore, learn from,
and come back up. They need to learn to keep their heads held high
against all that might try to keep them down.
They need to learn that living well is the best revenge. That eventually
it will make a difference, if they don't quit, that quitting will let
those who wish to squash them win.
>Why the fuck do we even bother wallowing in this cesspit.
The chance of truly rising above the shite.
>Why do i even bother tolerating this shit? Why am i even here?
Because somewhere in that brain of yours you still aspire to rise above
everything, you somewhat masochistically want to see how things will turn
out.
