Counting On You!

Hello chums, I'm feeling awfully down at the moment. I'm going to bed now, but when I return in the morning, I expect to find at least one post in this thread that'll reaffirm my faith in this big old life and make me love everyone again like I normally do. Tell a heartwarming story, play the banjo, whatever. No rude limericks. Make me smile, don't fail me now or I'll just cry and cry and cry!

    I was walking home, late last week, when I happened upon a poor injured duckling, trapped in some drunken lout's discarded six-pack rings. I was shocked, I was appalled, I was on the verge of <i>tears</i>. Cradling this innocence little thing, newly freed from its heinous entrapment I carried it the 20 metres to the local vetinary centre. Content that the creature would recieve some love and care, I strolled home in a cheerful mood, feeling that my duty to be a decent human being was fufilled for the day.

    Note: story may or may not be true, but it's the thought that counts, love.

    After weeks of mental f__k-ups and not being able to be something my girlfriend deserves, I gathered my guts and told her that we shouldn't meet anymore. We then proceeded to really, really talk about things, and in the end we decided it's time for the both of us to get our acts up (I couldn't stand some things in her and vice versa) and be like we were at the start of our relationship. Today at dawn we started from scratch into a new, better relationship with my girlfriend, and Im really happy with how the things are going. A brighter sun shines again

    [edit] Today while having a walk with forementioned girlfriend, we noticed this poor, fluffy little bird (apparently not being able to fly yet) chirping in the side of the pavement. It was really cute and so.. fluffy! Well, we decided to help the motherbird a bit and killed 2 mosquitoes and left them few feet away, along with this little earthworm on the ground. Hope they had a nice dinner <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> (Disclaimer: Story is true, and we were careful not to go too close so there wouldn't be any trouble!)

    Walking down the stairs one night,
    the rails gleamed with the moon's purest light,
    I thought of the sorrow of transcendence,
    the pain and joy of one's descendants,
    to walk downhill is far easier,
    than uphill will ever be,
    but the rewards of such a work always makes me queasier,
    and will always be a mystery to me.

    But as I walked-a new thought entered my head,
    what accomplishments will I have once I am dead,
    if I always take the road in which gravity assists,
    instead of strolling down destiny's path star kissed,
    forgive me mother I'll turn back around,
    for you I will work a little harder,
    this time I will do that upon which I frown,
    cooking, laundry, dishes and even cleaning out the larder!

    ~Ode to Lazyness No. One~

    Haha! Behold my sleazebag-esque nature!

    Picking a lock is like picking your nose, if successful you'll get some kind of a reward.

    You've played to much NS when you:

    Try to siege your sisters/brothers room.

    Wont dare go to the zoo because your afraid that the rhino might devour you.

    Start looking for RT steam holes in the neighbourhood.

    Shout "STOP HUMPING THE ARMORY!" as soon as you get in some kind of a line.

    Dont know why you dont have any hivesight.


    It was late dident come up with any better... xd

    a few weeks ago i was having major troubles. i really liked this girl and she also liked me, but for some reason she didnt want to go out. i was heartbroken. almost. we still hung out alot, but i liked her so much. then a guy i talked to on msn, and have a great deal of respect for, told me, he has nothing left to live for. then he was offline. for about an hour i didnt know what to think. then that night i was driving and it all hit me at once. i dont have much goin for me. i didnt help that guy, and i shouldve. i didnt have much of a chance since i didnt see what he said untill he was offline, but i shouldve been paying attention. i didnt think id ever get the girl of my dreams. the next day i went to the mall to find something to take my mind off of things.

    when i stepped out of my car i walked a few cars down towards the doors, and saw something on a car that has made my day and every day since then. it was a simple bumper sticked. a palm tree. a sunset. and a fragment of a sentence. "no bad days." the rest of that day i payed more attention to the beauty around me. i noticed the trees. the people. the life. i realized, there are no bad days. only bad attitudes, and there are too many beautiful things around to have a bad attitude.

    a few days later i found out that guy did not kill himself. i was forever grateful. i literally did a dance around my room. a few days later that girl came to my house and we watched tv. we seemed to be closer than ever. the next day i talked to her and she asked if she could come over to borrow something or other, i dont even remember. we had the most wonderful time. we started watching tv, but that changed fast. im sure you can conclude what we did, but if you dont let me say that she is a wonderful kisser. that went on every day until last monday, when she left town for a week. i cant wait till this saturday.

    Picture this....

    You're tearing **** down a carpool lane on some unknown freeway, going 80mph, and you're only at half throttle in 4th gear.

    You, my friend, should go street riding (motorcycles). It is easily the most gratifying experience that you can achieve anytime you please.


    I can't even begin to count how many times I've been on an onramp, starting out at a measly 25mph, with cars flying by. Only to watch the car that just passed me at the beginning of the ramp, get farther and farther in my rear view mirror as I pass his **** before I've even merged.

    Being stuck behind a car, seeing an opening for passage, taking it, and being in front of the slowpoke in under 2 seconds.


    /me wishes his motorcycle hadn't irrepairably broken down last year.
    /me wishes he was done being a student and had a job so that he could fix it.

    Sucks to feel bad. I don't really have any other nonspecific pearls of wisdom at the moment. I'm not big on hearwarming stories in general, either. But here are a few nodes from <a href='http://www.everything2.com/' target='_blank'>Everything2</a> that are a good read:
    <ul><li><a href='http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=489416' target='_blank'>Why I torched the crack house</a>.</li><li><a href='http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=802512' target='_blank'>The principles of nuclear weapon safety and meeting girls are remarkably similar</a>.</li><li><a href='http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=961651' target='_blank'>The Joint Chiefs of Staff</a>.</li><li><a href='http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node=The%20Pizza%20Chronicles' target='_blank'>The Pizza Chronicles</a>.</li></ul>
    There are others in there, of course. Some are very informative, some are opinionative, some are uplifting, some are depressing, some are random and some are complete garbage. If you dig far enough, you're sure to find something interesting.

    Come on now, I don't bloody well want to hear how you're all getting the girl and I'm not, that's hardly going to cheer me up now is it?

    Honestly!

    Rule: if you're going to post pictures of ladies, they all have to be Keira Knightley.
