Unobvious things that make you sad.

it makes me sad when i forget some persons name who is totally down with me and stoked that they get to see me again and i'm all 'good to see you too' and it gets awkward and i feel sad. this just happened on the phone, but it was more or less a girl who called me and wanted to hang out as she was visiting the city but i am not in the city right now so i said how about monday, give me a call and then forgot to ask who the fuck she was or what her phone number is (cause i don't have call display) because i couldn't recognize her voice and now it is going to drive me insane until she calls back which maybe she won't and i don't know cause who the fuck is this person anyway? i totally meant to ask who it was but i didn't. now i am sad cause i feel like she is on the bus into town wondering if/thinking that i didn't appreciate the call or don't care enough about her to forget who the fuck she is and for all i know she could be completely right because i don't know who the fuck she is. plus she sounded cute.

out driving, at a light, there is a group of friends walking and all but one run across the street before the light gives them the green. you fuckin dicks, that was pointless, you're going to have to stand at the other side now and wait for your friend anyways. it probably makes me sad because i'm usually the one that ends up waiting for the green by myself.

Yeah but eventually all your friends will die for their foolishness and you will be the last man standing.

Forever lulone. But still lulive.

Occasionally I'll be excited or enthusiastic about something, then it'll occur to me that I'm overglorifying it in my mind and it's really not that great. Then my heart deflates like a worn out blowup doll.

I made chicken for dinner tonight. I ate it in my bedroom cause that is how i roll. My cat was with me in the bedroom. after i finished eating the chicken he finally took note of it. he wanted some chicken so fucking bad but i couldn't give him any because i had just finished eating all of it. the worst bit is I forced myself to eat the last bite because i didn't want to waste it when my cat would have given me a blowjob if i were to have given it to him. the look he gave me was atrocious.

he is uncharacteristically ignoring me now because he knows i ate his chicken.

^^ Expect a brown tipped nose by morning. Be ye warned.

McMansions replacing houses dating from the 60s-80s. Not necessarily because those homes were of great aesthetic value, but the idea that entire neighborhoods could be on some kind of tacky redevelopment loop every couple decades in this country. It's like the end of things becoming vintage. I've seen many houses from the 1920s and 30s razed and replaced with new homes in my hometown, so fuck that too, even though it's obviously sad.

Not knowing what happened to people you knew as a kid who were often made fun or picked on, and for no good reason. There's one kid I actually liked but never defended when people made fun of him. It wasn't harsh bullying but I know it had to get to him.

The thought of having kids and realizing that they to will have to be teenagers at some point.

Being broke, spending money on a rare dinner out at a restaurant, and realizing the meal is terrible.

That society actually used to be a lot more horrifying and brutal than it is now.

My wife's always mentioned she hates seeing certain people eating alone in public, especially older men who don't appear to be married but at the same time aren't either creepy geezers or rich playboys. The thought of nice people never finding love, or even a decent relationship, that they long for seems pretty awful.

Also (this will be ranting example) seeing old products or cheap art, at thrift stores or estate sales especially, that will one day be forgotten and sitting in a landfill and never preserved in any form. It's odd thinking of all the insignificant cultural things that will be skipped over because someone didn't make it fad...or hype it online as some cool "retro" thing everyone acts like they remember. Or to get real specific, I remember seeing this graphic of an anthropomorphic rabbit w/ glasses and a tie (who wasn't smiling really) on the side of a milk cartoon when I was in the 7th grade. I thought, who illustrated this? What's their story? My friend said "probably some lonely guy in a cabin somewhere in the mountains." I drank it and threw it away.

the double rainbow must have gutted you

Seeing someone's failed attempt at creating a popular channel on Youtube. Barely any views, last video added 10 months ago etc.

:(

Those wikipedia pages of artists made by the subject themselves. It's one thing to promote yourself with your own website or social networking page, but creating your own, often far too wordy page on wikipedia...

Watching porn and suddenly wondering how much it must suck to feel nothing anymore like them

guns and bombs.
