Well, there's your problem. How can you expect your brain to know not to crush on them when you don't even know what they're like?!
Your brain might know something you don't. You should at least meet it halfway.

From my experience, love doesn’t conquer scheduling conflicts so I would just give up on it if I were you.

If you want actual advice though, try and see if you can create some sort of relationship that exists solely through phone calls. I have this one female friend who I occasionally call and it’s usually a fun time. Every time we try to meet up though, it’s dreadfully boring. I still wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Considering the actions of inherently selfish and egotistical people who have no qualms destroying entire societies and condemning them to decades of poverty and misery for the sake of an impressive stock portfolio, I'd say that taking a couple wheels off of a chair is a fairly weak contender for the sake of divine judgement.

Of course. That's assuming that we consider death to be inherently negative and therefore a punishment... I suppose a more advanced nihilist than I would agree with you in that your sins are so meager and your virtues so meaningful that you deserve the reward of death's sweet release, but I'm gonna go ahead and assume that that's not what you meant when you wrote that.

In short; don't worry too much about it, but do talk with your shrink to see if there are some good tips for dealing with the emotional floods when they pop up. Or, better yet, set up a cam and cash in on your newfound celebrity as "Angrygamer, Annihilator of Seating Arrangements".

I mean, if a teenager with Tourette's can get an award for yelling about fukken gingers and their caramels, then you can probably get some positive recognition for intermediate furniture combat.

In the heat of the moment, I'm just so overwhelmed with pent up frustration and self-hatred that I just feel I have to destroy *something*. A gaming controller, a keyboard, my trashcan, and now my gaming chair are all casualties. and after-the-fact I'm just so sickened with myself, as I'm usually a very placid and rational person, but then I just get so fucking stupid and irrational, all in a split-second, that I feel it confirms all my fears in life in how I'm going to be stuck in a rut forever, cause I'm just a stupid animal pacing in his cage.

I'm currently using some old books and an old shoe as props to keep my chair level, so it's atleast halfway functional, if totally immobile now.

You could always stockpile old tiles (or dinner plates etcetera) to throw at a wall or something when the stress and anger is starting to build up.
That's what my mother and various friends/family used to do from time to time, back when she had a convenient courtyard for smashing things in at the back of her shop. Obviously you need a suitable location for such stress-relieving activities, but that shouldn't be too hard to find.

You mom wouldn't happen to be Greek, would she?

I think I phrased that wrong. Not just wanting to break something, but specifically something in my life. Like if my life where a thing, I'd want to smash it. In those moments I just want to destroy my whole life.

This sounds a bit like the precursors to dissociative fugue.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugue_state

It is unhealthy.  Accept the life you have, and revel in the good parts of it. The bad parts that you are able to affect change on, remember that you are able to change them, and the parts you cannot, remember that they are beyond your control, and thus not your fault.

[Kagus]

Just don't punch a kid in the dick when you're going through that.

That's a Fugue in D minor.

Danana! NA NA NA NA NA NA!

Heh. I had the thought, myself, last night that I wanted to quit my job and never leave my room myself. As NEET as that experience would be, it's definitely my seasonal depression kicking into high gear.

So maybe not as aggressive as breaking my life, but definitely wanting to upend it in a fit of... Something.

You.

For a long time now I have thought you to be highly amusing. Comedy writing, bub. Do it.

Going through one of those weird phases where I ponder what it would be like to live an ordinary life, again. It'll pass and I'll go back to being a well-oiled machine executing the motions of society without making any emotional attachments, but until my mind readjusts it's always disquieting.

All my writing is comedy writing.

All the world's a stage, and all it ever hosts are reruns of this dumb sitcom with billions of recurring characters I can never remember the names of.


That said, I've realized that I mainly just build off of or manipulate things that other people say, inserting comments and observations of stuff wherever I can fit them in. Basically, wisecrack tetris.

Writing actual standalone content is not something I'm particularly good at, so far as I can tell.


Also I shouted "snaketits" in a bar a couple days ago, so I clearly shouldn't be allowed to have contact with the rest of the human race.
