I'm just here to vent about some things that have been bothering me for a while. This topic's going to be pretty random, so just keep that in mind.
1. Everyone expects me to be greater than I already am. It makes me feel that I'm not accepted for who I am, and that I must accomplish something just to be a "somebody." My older brother once said to me that the only way that I'll ever live a successful life is if I write. I HATE WRITING! Writing is the living embodiment of Hell to me. I hated writing at school, and if I have to do it as a career, I'll just kill myself right now (don't get me wrong, I'm not suicidal).
2. Everyone expects me to dedicate my life to society. I ask what's the point when the human race will eventually go extinct anyway? I'm just one person who wants to live life his way.
3. Everyone expects me to fall in love. I know everyone will disagree with me when I say this, but I don't need a significant other to enjoy my life. I don't like the idea of getting married (because I get claustrophobic at weddings), and I really, really don't want kids. I don't want the responsibility, and I think that I'm actually doing the planet a favor by not having kids due to overpopulation. I'm not saying that I won't ever fall in love, it's just that I don't think the marriage lifestyle suits me.
4. Everyone expects me to know everything about what's important (or what they keep telling me is important). Example: History. To me it's nothing more than over glorified fiction that propagandists expect us to swallow without a second thought. You cannot convince me that all the historical figures that everyone looks up to have actually existed. You could go on and on and on about how George Washington was the first president of the U.S. and has paintings and documents that proved he existed, but I'm just going to pull the "that's exactly what they want us to think" card and not take the conversation seriously. The only way any one can prove to me that everything in the history books have actually happened is if someone builds a time machine, and lets me use it.
5. Everyone expects me to "be a man." It bothers me, because everyone expects me to be a competitive loving, football watching, beer drinking, booty slapping, narcissistic egotist. To be honest with all of you, I don't consider myself a man or a woman. I don't fit the stereotype of either gender, so I consider myself genderless. Although I refer to myself as he/him/his, I only do that because my sex is male. In case you don't know, a persons sex and a person gender are two entirely different things.
6. Dial-up, dial-up, dial-up, DIAL-UP! I HATE HAVING DIAL-UP! We only use it because anything else is too expensive for us.
7. I've been wanting to make more friends on here, but I don't exactly know how to do that. I been wanting to post an "I would like some friends on WP" topic, but I feel that it would be too much. I don't want to just PM anyone that I would like to be friends with, because I'm afraid that would creep them out. This is a big issue with me, so if you have any advice, I'd love to here it.
Okay, sorry for the random ramblings, but I really had to get it all out of my system.
