The other day I was at the mall near my house and there was tons of cops and ambulances and news crews, and I was wondering what was happening so me and my friends started running and we finally saw where everyone was. They were at the pet store in the mall, there was blood all over and I asked around and I found out a girl broke up with her boyfriend and he shot himself in the head, in the middle of the pet store, in front of little kids, over a fucking girl. I don't understand what is so wrong with people now, I could never imagine even harming myself, and I know kids in FUCKING NINTH GRADE WHO HAVE BEEN IN THE HOSPITAL MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE OF TRYING TO KILL THEMSELVES, this upsets me so much. I really don't understand how someone can possibly harm, or even take away their ONLY life, when there is so much to be happy about and grateful for. Your girlfriend breaks up with you? Yeah it sucks, but at least you fucking have a roof over your head and a decent meal for dinner, when there's thousands of kids who will eat dirt tonight for dinner and not wake up in the morning. I don't understand what's happening to our society, when i don't know a single person my age who doesn't drink or do drugs, when I know multiple people who cut themselves, it's absolutely mind blowing and it kills me.

There's a word for this as well.
'Glorification'
Basically, you're making what you're doing seem right to all around, and with current day media, they story hits the tv within 30 minutes of it being shot.
The world is based on the media, and if people think that killing yourself is right because they saw it on a tv, they'll do it themselves, and it automatically becomes acceptable in society.
Drinking + Drugs is just because of the young exposure to the substances..
People in my dads day didn't even hear of marijuana til they were 16 or so unless their parents were into it..
These days 10 and 11 year olds have not only heard of it, but around 3% have even smoked it!

meh i cbf reading all these posts but i read what andrew said and it makes alot of sense but alot of people are saying they agree and shit but im guessing most of you are just saying that because you just read it.
i live in japan where most people respect each other which also makes you respect other people too.
but there are assholes everywhere. its a fact of life.

THIS IS LONG OBV, i dont see people reading it, but for my benefit of writing it down, why not.

andrew is right about people tuning out their lives and living threw objects, but the wolrd has never been nice and it hasnt changed.
disabled people as a whole were hidden away.
and who the hell said the 60s were a time of peace and flower power?
that was a movement that all these kids totally believed in because they didnt want to be like their parents who believed everything they were told.
it was good, but most of them realized, HEY this life style isnt working out, hmmm.
you think people didnt get totally abused from the flower power people. women were still shit.
40 years ago we had less choices so not everyone could live through vanity, because there wasnt much difference in things available.

people are only mean because they are insecure about themselves, its true, those kids they have to be tough and big and pick on something small and inocent to be dominant.
we call this human nature. if you can get over your insecurities you won the game.

story time:
yesterday i saw a kitten on the highway, and in new york our highways dont play, there is tons of traffic going extremely fast and no brakes.

so i see it sitting there in the left lane next to the median and i start flipping out so my mom turns around and goes back, the loop to go back is about 3 miles, we mess up and end up on the outside road to the highway, so we go back, i see it again passed out on the floor, we go again and he gone nothing on the road.

the traffic was too fast and we would have died trying to get it
we called 911 because its a traffic hazard so they have to come.

we had to go somewhere so on the way home we looped around a couple times to make sure it wasnt anywhere, we think someone really did stop and didnt give a shit and might have got it, cuz there was nothing on the road and no way to get off it.


the only person on here who knows how much i care about animals is greg. i will not kill anything for fun or because its annoying. and i will try to save anything i see hurting.
when i see slugs on the side walk i pick them up and put them in the grass cuz i know theyll get steped on.

I HATE PEOPLE WITH A PASSION.
they think they are the most special species of animal in the world.
they are not. what makes youre life more important than a forest full.
what makes your life more important then that kitten?
oh you can think? oh really.
what are you contributing?
when you dont recycle that bottle, and you just throw that shit on the floor, you are worth nothing to me, because you dont care.
the small things show how you dont value life.

more story time:
i know a girl with slight autism and she scares the shit out of me because one second shell be cute and nice and then shell turn. if you dont know she has it you think shes an evil brat. she can only have soft things in her room and she has to be locked in at night so she doesnt hurt her brother. she scares me because what are they going to do with her later on, she looks like a functioning being but shes fucking out of her mind. she can kill someone? why are the violent misunderstood let to live when they would have hurt themselves and died a long time ago. its mean, but we're always stopping the course of nature. but then again ill see how it feels when something bad happens to me and im not willing to let go.

yeah it is fucked up, but were always trying to keep people alive and under control when they would have died on their own a long time ago when we were a tad more wild.
im saying that because everything else on earth doesnt make an effort to defy nature except us, and we fuck everything up so badly.

thats why the girl you know is supervised then, that's why her door is locked at night. it'd be different if she was a murderer, but she's just a girl with a disease that is no fault of her own. it doesn't make her a bad person, so i can't agree with that at all.

you're telling me if the cat you saw on the side of the road was born with only 3 legs and it couldn't walk on its own, you'd just let it there to die since thats "the way of nature"?

there is no correlation at all between humans fucking up the planet, which i totally agree with, and helping those that would die if they were born 5000 years ago.

no that what im saying, im hypocritical becasue i dont know how i feel.

its not her fault, but shell have to be in an institution the rest of her life becasue shes violent, im not saying kill her im saying she would have killed herself.
im only saying that too because our population is so big and its another thing thats fucking up the world.

no i would help the human and i would help the cat becasue i care about life.

all of you will probably think im fucked up butttt i like thinking creatively

to be honest if there were to be an entire mass killing of some sort of people who don't really have any function in life or who shouldnt be living but still are, etc. etc. it would be really helpful to our population problem

all the old people who dont work anymore or dont do anything or can barely even WALK on their own would apply, what's the point, they might be important to family but to be honest if my grandmother died i would get over it in a certain amount of time and move on

oh well

hmm, looks like we have another mass murderer on our hands.

Note to self: chris bendel + WMD's = I got to get the fuck out of here



On a completely different note, I'm going to bring back this thread with a wall of text of my own...

I just got back from probably the most incredible week of my life (yes, I'd even go so far as to say that) at camp, mainly because I finally came to terms with myself and who I want to be and just the whole way I see the world. Well, to make a long story short, I met some of the most amazing people at camp, and I can honestly say that in the week that I was there, I formed stronger friendships with people than those that I have with people that I've known for up to 11 or so years from school. I guess being at the school that I am at, I saw myself as having a shitty life, me being much less fortunate than at least 99% of the people I go to school with (private school, go figure), and as such and also for a few other reasons I won't get into, I haven't exactly been the happiest camper for the past few years of my life. I guess that all changed this week, when I met some kids who have been through so much tough shit in their lives (I'm not going to get into detail, but it involves stuff like living on welfare, abusive parents, etc, etc.) who are probably some of the nicest, smartest, and most of all content kids I've ever met in my entire life. This is probably when I realized that I have it good, but what have I been doing for the past few years? Shit all. I've just realized I've probably thrown away a bit of what could be some of the best years of my life, by being a self-important jackass, worrying about how much my life "sucks," moping around, not taking any chances, and most importantly, not trying to go out and make the best of my limited existence on this planet. So I definitely feel pretty confident saying that this past week was probably the best week of my life, and I really hope that in the near future I'll be a changed/better person because of it.

That was probably a little wordy, but I just kind of felt like ranting a bit. There is probably so much more I could say on this topic, but I just can't type out all the thoughts in my head as fast as they pop in there, soooo.. yeah.

ok for a second, take away all your emotions and look at the world realistically. if there was 1-3 billion people completely eliminated from the earth, tell me that won't help the population problem

lol im just talking realistically with no emotions
