Sads: my complete inability to do anything right, and the fact that all of my friends seem to view me as a second-class friend: they only talk to me if there are no other available friends to speak with.

Unfriending people on facebook is kind of a weird thing in terms of social context. People could take it any which way, depending on how much weight they put on facebook, if you know them in person, how often you talk to them, etc.

Some people could take it as "Eh, who cares?"

And to others, it's the deepest insult possible.

And those of us with anxiety issues freak out, considering all of them until we break down wondering what we did wrong (if anything).

The IRS wants to talk to me more about stupid former tax dodging client. At least I'm covered and they aren't the least bit interested in me, but still.

My mom is being a bitch about basically insisting I do favors for her stupid friends and their kids. She refuses to acknowledge that it would be a favor, and insists that it is to my benefit. Nopes.... Fuck it. Trying to guilt trip me ... as if I don't help people, and am too stupid to take the work.... Wow.... No. She's dead serious too.

I just don't need anymore god damn guilt trips. Fuck it. I have helped a TON of people and they usually have a way of screwing me over for my trouble. As if it's somehow my fucking fault they got into some trouble. That's like bitching at the plumber cause your pipes are clogged. The plumber didn't clog it so don't bitch.

I'm sad and depressed and can't bring myself to do much of anything. I'm trying to get off soda and booze, and this isn't making that easier. God damn it.

Remember the good you've done--whatever attitude responded is an attitude that person held onto at that time :<
I'm trying to get off soda and booze, and this isn't making that easier. God damn it.
It...pretty much won't (though may inhibit physical emotion), given that the experiences are in thought.
Don't let those guilt trips attack you Truean. Find a good foothold and stick to it--you, by far, have done muchly good in all experience...though seriously, the problems are also existent in others :S

Mmph, my words are messy and my mind is jumbled on what to say here...So I'll send it by PM.
*hugs to you all*

If your mom can't even acknowledge when you're helping her out then she needs a triple-scoop helping of "Fuck Off." I hate that kind of combination egotistic-manipulative behavior, especially if the person is doing it on purpose because they know it works and only push harder if they were able to get away with it in the past.

Let's lower the level of judgement here ._.
Or the level of response to said judgement...
There are times in a person's life where they turn to some attitude which very much sleight their perception of others...
...Unless this is a long and continued attitude, that is...Then she should be informed regarding it and how its affecting others. :S

I am a fan of informing by action.
Which is to say, don't do the thing and tell her expressly that it's because of attitude. Make sure the explanation does really get across though, start the conversation with it and give a reminder at the end too.

I drove for the first time yesterday. Worst feeling in my life.
Don't worry; that gut-clenching apprehensive feeling of "any second now I'm going to crash and destroy everything! AAH!" will begin to go away as you practice more and as your confidence in what you've learned increases. ;D
It never. EVER. goes away.
I will be a bus/carpool commuter for life.
I will order my groceries by internet, and get them shipped to my door.
Buy all my games through download from now on (which WiiU and 3DS can do), get my consoles and collectable NFC gaming figures through the same channels as my groceries.
And call a plumber or electrician or mechanic to fix something instead of insisting on doing it myself.
WALK if I want fast food.
I will never have to drive myself anywhere.

Paranoid flabort is paranoid.

Don't pay attention to any of those driving-related deaths. Statistically, it's not likely to be you!

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Then it will happen when you least expect it.

My older brother has become sucked into the tumblr hivemind, and my younger brother has gone by degrees from redditor to avid 4channer. I'm also sad about moving out at the end of the week, but I won't miss the suddenly frequent, nasty fights.

Just wait until the first time you have to drive on slushy roads, assuming you live in an area that gets an appreciable winter season.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.
