Nah, usually these quitters have 9001 important things to do when I ask them if I can come over. Like sitting at home playing the latest big thing on Steam all day.


I guess it's my own fault for putting off doing things when expecting visitors. It's just that I really hate having to leave things like cleaning or laundry in the middle. Or that cooking and/or bathing when they appeared would lead to a rather awkward visit.


I'm kinda convinced that if I tried to do anything productive and/or hugely effort-requiring while waiting for someone, they'd show up right as I'm really getting inspired and into whatever it is I decided to try and get done tho.
Because that's just how the world works.

Control.

It's all Dad want's. He'll do anything to have control over everything he can. He doesn't give two shits whether or not his obsessive behaviour is tearing this family apart, and ruining David's relationship with his girlfriend.

Whenever someone dares to challenge him and to back the hell off for once, he'll go into a rage and accuse everyone of knowing nothing, and that everything will fall apart with him. Amazing that he doesn't realise the irony in that.

Poor Mum is losing her one chance at her psychology qualification for her dream job, David's friendships are being destroyed (alongside his relationship) and Chris is struggling to deal with the stress all because Dad can't come to the realisation that he is not the perfect being he seems to think he is. He's an arrogant prick.

I can't say I've had it that bad, but my dad has been quite the controlling asshole.  Especially when he starts ripping you a new one because you have a speech problem, or because you're a socialite.  He's improved over time, but he's still problematic.  Me mum and dad divorced, so thankfully I didn't have to live with him.  All I can say is stick it out, and hopefully you can get a decent amount of independence soon.

My biggest workplace pet peeve is taking the blame for a mistake that I didn't make. Especially when it can get me in huge trouble with the state.

These student protests are making me rather furious. A bunch of greedy, egregious people labeling people and inspiring racial hatred all in the name of trying to promote 'diversity.'

You know what would promote diversity? Letting people be who they are without making them feel like a bunch of assholes for their race, heritage or courses of study. Without imposing demands for what they want and allowing students to choose for themselves. The vast majority of their claims against these schools are strawmen laced with greed and narcissism.

They sit in their lush and lavish colleges and are receiving a formal post-secondary education, and I sit here unemployed and struggling to get into a formal college due to lack of credit and expenses. I must be so **censor** privileged to be a white guy with how easy my life is and all the lack of adversity I've faced in my life. Nobody is sparking racism and sexism and whatever other **censor** ism you can name but these people. I don't have to apologize for something I have never done, so neither should anyone who was negatively affected by these superfluous rallies.

Of course, only hypocrites prosper in this turbulent tempest of tripe. What a bunch of children. I don't know who's worse, them, or the people who have spent the past week rioting and blocking off public roadways just to harass police officers.

It's like I've said before, this is the world of revenge and nobody has any eyes left to see the issues it's causing.

I feel the same way, Nick.
I'm so glad I don't live in the US or another country with people still focused on any kind of racial tension. There are so many problems we could be solving were it not for the whole racial divide that exists.
I'm not saying it's perfect here; but it's better than in the US.

Also, my rant for the day is that schoolkids are meanies.

Gotta ask what kind of simple mistake gets you into THAT much trouble.

For one, it wasn't simple. It involved both sanitation and health regulations being broken, which in the school  district is a big violation with the state.  Like, lose my job violation.

All for something that happenned when I wasn't even there, and it was someone else's responsibility.

Except there are people who believed I was there, and already spread it around that I was.

The *only* positive side is that my boss knows the truth, and when she gets back Monday she can clear it up.
