Ya know, Kenny... if you don't tell us what the problem is, we're going to have to make something up. The Internet is cruel that way.

The trick with bleach is you really need to build a tolerance. Start with like a 10% mix and work your way up. I would not go past 90%. You can squeeze a couple tide pods in there just to season the drink a little. We had this bar called The Maytag and it was a popular drink there. There was a little casino setup in the back too but it was kinda sketch. Everyone I know who went to play got taken to the cleaners.

Those are overly generalized statements. I'm sure that a lot of people here can blame "The government" for their problems, but for most of us it's a cop out. How did they impact you specifically? Be specific.

Here's an example:

"I think that the court system is corrupt" - general statement. Not helpful.

"The court system was unfair to me. They gave me an Indecent Exposure charge for flashing my weiner at Miss Hoover again." - Specific statement!

See the difference? On the second one, we can give specific advice to address your problem, like maybe you should keep your zipper shut when you're around Miss Hoover next time.

Your proof-reader is stupid; that much we all can see.

Maybe its more like the matrix ignorance is bliss, either way I can tell your miserable. Worrying about my spelling and punctuation on the interent.

Is it just me or does the system in the world make people feel depressed ? The system is not fair in Life :(


The system is rigged so that the inferior droids who don't have an once of smarts stay poor and never move up in society so they can tell all of the other serfs what to do, all the while the successful power trip folk jack off to their suffering and reap in the cash from the crap the serf buy from them perpetrated by this stigma that you MUST have it and you should be a follower. Sometimes these products are made in the most inferior way possible to cut corners, save money and reap the profits. Such is the case of food products or other cheap crap one buys but doesn't need. Am I making any sense? LOL

Lets just give a perfect example: "Smart Devices" make you the product. Up to and including Winblows 10. You are now a marketer's wet dream and a huge cash cow. Enjoy the little GPS tracking contraption and please do feed it more and more information and keep your head buried in it all the while you are oblivious to your surroundings.

Moral of the story: do well, stay smart and learn not to get fucked. When you conquer that, depression becomes an unnecessary unless you have mental health issues. No one should be depressed with money and power, but it happens I suppose.

Is this a variation on "you meet an asshole in the morning?"

Life and the 'systems' are fair. We all get the same opportunities, some choose to squander them.

If your not in position to take advantage of them then move, you're not a tree.
A baby born in rural Appalachia, one born in typical suburbia, and one born in a major metropolitan city all have the same opportunities?

I just watched The Thomas Crown Affair (the one with Pierce Brosnan) yesterday. Such a good movie.

LOL, okay, I forgot, the streets are paved with gold too.

That's the thing, just because in Beverly Hills it's diamonds and pearls while in an outback country location it's survival has nothing to do with my point.

Sure a baby cannot move, but it's parents can and has the opportunity to do whatever they want.

Are there not books worth of stories of people who've come from nothing and made 'something' of themselves?

Doesn't mean they all have the same opportunities.
