Your pointless thoughts & observations

The amount of verbal padding I feel I need to be able to start a conversation with anyone about how I feel about anything is fucking ridiculous and I’ve just realised this has to be my problem and not, as I’d sort of assumed up til now, someone else’s. A few years shy from 40, psychotherapy since kindergarten and yet here’s another fucking mundane but major goddamn obstacle. I’m so sick of this shit. I’m a gracelessly failing pasty sack of bones and meat without a trace of tenderness or humour, pretending to be a person. 

Tldr; melodramatic man-baby time. 

I've been thinking these same thoughts the last few days, namely how insurmountable a task it seems to convey complex thoughts and feelings wholly and accurately and to have them be received and understood completely by another human being. one thing I do know: premeditating on it doesn't get you very far - once you start, it gets easier, even if it is messy along the way. I'm also approaching 40 and about to return to extended psych sessions for the nth time, which is what precipitated these thoughts.

I feel the same... people don’t laugh at my jokes but laugh at my mundane conversations... and I'm often misunderstood... I ramble all the iterations of a past/future conversation and it really doesn't make a diference because in the heat of the moment I'm just 'what u see is what u get'...and all this ramble inside my head is way more unbearable than the irl convertations... yeah and laughing about other people jokes, almost impossible... most of my team is very patronizing and that's something I can't pretend... making new friends? right... don't count on me for that unless I'm working 24/7 whit a person who doesn't slack...

solution: acting like a sociopath

My thoughts exactly. It’s okay to have a thread to focus on negative content, “What’s wrong with Florida?” but not this

What's wrong with Ethel?

How does the World view Ethel these Days

So?

WATMM Will Need 100 Ethels to Sustain Itself In the Next 5 Years

100 ethels equals 100000000 bitcoin

no one has that kind of money

My mistake everyone, I can owe up to making a mistake. I should have posted my question in here and not have made a thread.

Forgive me brothers!

having a thread making fun of a variety of shenanigans committed in a US state vs starting a thread in order to make a personal attack against a long time watmm member, are 2 separate things, brother.

I agree, once again my mistake.

where is schlitze when you need him

Ethel is well-known for being a gossip who greatly enjoys hearing herself talk. She is somewhat sarcastic and judgmental, often telling others things they don't want to hear and seeming to take joy in their discomfort...

These factors, as well as her age, have made her less popular among clients, a fact she is well aware of. Though seemingly somewhat bitter, Ethel views her life realistically and is prepared for the potential of being replaced someday. Ethel is also a heavy smoker.

You're most definitely right about premeditating not being helpful and it does get easier and you sort of make peace with the mess or whatever. Good luck with the psych, I do feel that the older I get and the more psychs I've seen the more potential there is to benefit from each cycle (or whatever one might name it). Cheers man, it's really good to get a heartfelt response when throwing something into the void like that.

Sorry if getting too sappy here.

Through what I've gleaned through your watmm persona you really seem like a stand-up dude, I could never sustain myself let alone thrive somewhat in the working environment you're in. I've worked in AV for 6 years or so in my twenties and it was ok but it was on land and being able to work with a greater diversity of peeps and seeing like-minded people in my free time made all the difference. Keep that sociopath flag flying high!

unfortunately, in Portugal, it's expensive af... like, 10 bucks for 250~300 ml...

here on the ship is free

I got a new roommate... he's also a drummer... yesterday I got into the cabin and he had the toilet door open and I could swear he was self motivating himself saying "YOU'RE A GOOD DRUMMER!!!" staring at the mirror...

I really can't tell if it's funny or sad... I'll let u decide...

Reddit congratulated me today on having 25 followers. Too bad most of said followers are OF bots.

I ate a burrito tonight
