Pardon me for being stereotypical, but there is no greater display of upper-class privilege than having so few things to worry about that you assume that no one else in the first world has anything to worry about ever. I apologize that my impending homelessness does not mean as much to you as it does to the warzone that is the middle east, but I am not going to sit here and beg for your moral pennies. I don't want them, and neither do any of us.
okkkkk whooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I am not even talking about that and my attitude is not "none of these things are bad or unfortunate" my attitude is "jeez why all the attention to the Boston incident when this is commonplace stuff outside perfect little America" and individual problems like yours are serious ok
Dude it's not a fucking contest.
If anything, my problems are way less important than what happened to the friends and families of the people in Boston. Those people died, at least I'll probably still be alive. You can't say Boston doesn't matter and then say I do just because you know me, that's why people care about Boston at all, because it happened here. You can't cut that both ways.

So what you're saying is that it's only bad if it happens outside of America and doesn't get media attention?
More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
This is so frustrating because I am just making the point that I wish people would sympathize with the third world as much as the first world but you are acting like it's offensive I would say that and it's not.

You know... I am going to leave for a while because this is turning into a retarded argument again and imi is not here and I will probably be blamed for all this commotion because I said something more than one person didn't like.

RE: homelessness: the entire time i've known you dudes i have been on the verge of this whooooo i win do i get a prize (*though my mom kinda has a job now so maybe this don't count*)
Heh, same here. My family's home's been on the verge of foreclosure since 2009...we've been lucky because my mother actually works in mortgage banking and thus knows all the little tricks and stuff she can use to stall for time, but...yeah, that's all it is. And it looks like in the next year or so time will likely run out either way. >_<
oh and also she might have to go on disability soon because it's only a question of when she'll be unable to work, not if she'll be unable to work
and i agree with him, the lack of attention paid to such problems in developing countries is disturbing and shows systematic problems with the news media
This is so frustrating because I am just making the point that I wish people would sympathize with the third world as much as the first world but you are acting like it's offensive I would say that and it's not.
How are people supposed to do this when the media isn't giving it attention?
Moreover, there's no tactful way to say "Hey guys I know there was a tragedy recently in the country you live but you should pay attention to the one half a world away that no one talks about so good luck finding out about it."

there is not a single person here who doesn't already know about what happens in Syria
you are preaching to the choir, and it's really annoying, and I just had a terrible day and the last thing I want to talk about right now is how fucked up the rest of the world is
you're acting like this is somehow an unreasonable request. I'm sorry that I don't want to be bombarded with concentrated depression every time I go online.

Re: Boston and Syria:
Maybe this says more about me than it does the situation itself, but the whole thing has been kinda eye-opening for me. An entire town essentially became a military occupation due to fears that a suicide bomber was on the loose—and it's like, wow, for us that's this big, huge, anomalous thing and it's almost unthinkable, but for a lot of people around the world that's literally their everyday life...

You know, though, you're not required to read or participate in this thread if you don't want to. A major event just happened, it's natural that people will want to discuss it.

this is precisely why I haven't been here much lately.
the one time I want to vent no one gives a shit and I get preached to about how my problems don't matter and I should be, I guess, blogging harder about what's going on in Syria. Do I not have a reason to be annoyed? Because I think I do.

Naney should stick to good internet critics, like the Blockbuster Buster, or the Irate Gamer, or Pewdiepie, or Red Letter Media.
What's wrong with Red Letter Media?
The difference is that the guy is playing as a senile psychopath. You're free to take or leave that aspect, but I say his critique are pretty hard-hitting.

You can't complain about my rudeness because I said something true.
Though, I would still appreciate someone to talk to if any of you are willing, but if not, oh well.
Anyway
I found a completely sealed vault in Dungeon Crawl with a bunch of valuable treasure in it. I can't figure out how to get in, and there aren't any hidden doors. So that's pretty weird.
Uh, jumping ahead a bit are we? What I'm saying is that you can enjoy his reviews without necessarily enjoying his character.
I dunno, I think with internet critics moreso than other critics, you have to find their persona likable to be able to take their opinions seriously.
JSmithOTI might say things like "jabroni" and make sex jokes, but he's a nice guy and I find him insightful.
Someone like RedLetter....I just don't understand the point of the act, and I don't find it entertaining, so I don't really find his reviews worth watching.
One of my brother's friends, "Sam" (not his real name) died on Thursday of sickness. His Parents came to my house today to tell us. The following is from their point of view.
Apparently, his wife (who he let take are of his money for him because he had no idea how to work with money) was cheating on him with other men (he probably never knew), and spending his army pension/money/whatever on fancy gifts for them (like cars) leaving him almost broke from what she said were "investments".
Maybe he did know, because they were close to a divorce; and in one more day, the papers would have gone through and they wouldn't have been married anymore.
His funeral is in a few days. His wife will be there are a grieving widow; showing a slideshow of her always standing by her man. His wife is expecting to inherit all of his stuff. His parents are contesting that.
But for now, I just remember what he was like when he was that little eight-year-old boy who came to play at our house and let me carry his dinosaurs when his arms were too full.
Only kid I ever knew who would actually clean up his own messes at that age (according to his parents, he never cleaned up after himself at his own house; but when he was a visitor, it was a different story).
This week is awful.
Oh, and now Sam's wife is asking whether she can bring her boyfriend to the funeral. She's pregnant, too.

i have only ever heard it called american football. very occasionally 'gridiron' but most people here probably wouldnt know what you were talking about if you called it that
There is no real argument to be had when it comes to best sporting moment of the week. This arrived midway through the first half of West Ham versus Manchester United at Upton Park, and it featured Andy Carroll, no longer constrained by the more mannered demands of playing centre-forward for Liverpool – where he seemed always a little baffled and corseted, shoulders slumped, like some captive primate brought back from the new world on an Elizabethan spice ship, forced to wear a ruff and frock coat and batter away at the violin with his great hairy hands, paraded as a Frenchman, taunted by braying courtiers, dreaming of bananas – and now transformed into a boisterously uninhibited presence in the West Ham attack.
Carroll's full-contact "ravenous wolf" challenge on David de Gea has already been widely examined. The same night there was something of the JFK assassination film about its droolingly sensual slow-motion dissection on Sky Sports. This is the key frame. Watch it again. Carroll arrives in shot. De Gea falls back. And to the left. Again. Crushed beneath a blur of snorting, whinnying man-meat, he goes back. And to the left. As Carroll appears at an improbable height, mane flowing, as though arriving from the skies on a broomstick, De Gea falls back … And to the left.
It was, in fairness, pretty much impossible to grow tired of watching this. Not just for the sheer oddity of such extreme violence on a football pitch, De Gea entirely obliterated like a balsa wood movie door kicked in by some scowling cowboy, but also because, for differing reasons, it was a moment of mutually illuminating contact for both players.

I will be back... whenever I feel like coming back.
I'm just tired of no one caring about my problems when I try to care about everyone else's
I feel like no one listens to me and as far as I know nobody ever does. here or anywhere else.
