Haha, he did. Loser. I bet you he still comes to ATOT to check this thread, even though he doesn't post.

Luckily I saved the file, if someone is willing to host it.

He's not a loser. People who put others down to feel better about themselves are losers.

How do you know what he used? Did you ever think that he might have the ability to write good, and is not lacking in grammar skills like many people on here? He's a good writer. Let's see you do better.

BAHAHA what an idiot. he thinks because he can use more difficult words in a lot of run-on sentences that he is proving his point. all i have to say is...grow a penis dude and realize you missed out on a fun night. maybe if you could grow the balls to talk to a girl, you would see that being anti-social is retarded. good luck with that.

Oh dear God me. I am so hurt by your comment. My life is worthless now. Let me take a dive off this bridge, here, see. Fare thee well and good day!

Some people can't help it if they're anti-social. Why don't you grow some feelings?

you are a writer, and you found that piece to be high quality? umm no offense (seriously) but that was terrible. using words that are very rarely used, such as misanthropy, and putting it in bad run-on sentences is absolutely horrific. that doesnt even take into account the fact that a lot of it makes no sense. its like he is literally using MS thesaurus (sp?) on every word in there. im not a writer and i dont claim to be, but its easy to tell when something is well-written with sound points and this "paper" clearly has neither of those characteristics.

He's not a loser. People who put others down to feel better about themselves are losers.

Thus, cyclically, making you a loser.
To clarify, if hypersonic5 made fun of idNut, and you called (implicitly/indirectly) hypersonic5 a loser for "putting him down", then you, additionally, have called yourself a loser.
Got self-esteem problems?

Admit that you are defending him because you feel the same. Social outcasts are usually elitests and this is no exception.

i have feelings, but being anti-social (like this kid) is just stupid. i dont mind people that are shy/quiet/whatever, but writing a story like this is just ridiculous. he knows he has this problem, yet he does nothing to try to fix it. and, before you say it, being anti-social on this level is unhealthy and is indeed a problem.

^^ btw, its well, not good

It doesn't matter if he's a "good" writer or not. The bottom line is that none of you should be judging him. At least he was honest about his life, and wrote something about it. How many of you can say you've done the same thing?

I think this is the answer - if you read her blogspot you'll see - it's named "MiseryLovesCompany." There's a new domain coming called "unwrittenangst." Birds of a feather will stick together.

I've written enough about my life, I just don't share it publicly. Does that make me any less of a person?

just because we dont publicize it doesnt meant we havent done it. that piece of writing really reminds me of the kids who tried to sound smart in english class. honestly, why do YOU feel compelled to stick up for him? he deserved it by putting himself out there. if you dont want to be made fun of, dont open yourself up to it.

I am completely on the same page as MrDudeMan here. He has absolutely NO ability to write. DudeMan put it best: "that piece of writing really reminds me of the kids who tried to sound smart in english class"

That is exactly how I feel. Using random words doesn't make you smarter, it makes your paper/essay unreadable and loses your audience. I hope his college essays were better than this...

Being concise is always better for getting your point across. All he did was water down his point and completely use the reader by using uncommon words.

Yes, because we see the normal people doing their stuff and wonder WTF they think is so great about it. Those of us who are emotionally balanced eventually realized we needed to outcast ourselves, because trying to live like everyone else just wasn't working.
