Broken Promises

[x434343]

Hey Escapists.

This morning at about 8:00, my sister told me she would drive me to the local Best Buy (I don't have a driver's liscense, and the Best Buy is like 5 miles away). She's been asleep since 10:00 (It's 5:00 PM here, so 7 hours). Not only is she not taking me to Best Buy, she's probably going to fuck up my sleep schedual for the week due to her being on spring break.

So, you guys got any broken promises to share?

It's 5 miles away downhill. Not so bad, I can handle it. It's the 5 miles UPHILL I can't deal with.

This cute girl told me she'd have lunch with me the next day. I woke up at 11 so I'd be ready at noon when she got off work... And no phone call.

But then you are already on your way back, so you have all the time you want!

You can't state that with any degree of certainty.

You are most likely correct, but there's no way to prove it one way or the other (yet), thus it is illogical and foolish to declare either side of the debate as certain.

I think that promise comes with some stuff on your end too. And let me know how it works out for you when you actually have the experience to draw from.

OT: I was promised Beyond Good and Evil 2! PLEASE GIVE ME BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL 2!!!!!!!!! *cries in the corner*

I was promised alot of things. I was supposed to be going on holiday during summer the last 3 years. Never happened at all.

My promise to stop changing my avatar so randomly.

When I was 5 I was promised the seringe wasn't going to hurt.

...It did.

 

[DSEZ]

i promise things and i always keep them because a broken promise is as good as a lie

Fable and Fable 2. Damn it Peter whatever you last name is, you said this game would be awesome, instead its only partially awesome.

Which is why I don't listen to his hype.

Try it, I'll bet you'll enjoy Fable 3 if you don't listen to what he says.

It worked for me with Fable 1 and 2.

OT: My mom promised to bake me a cake once. I never did get that cake...

*cries*

Ooh, an opportunity to vent. Concert tickets for Muse (meaning it would sell out in about 2 minutes) were gonna go on sale while I was at work and couldn't buy one myself. Asked a friend, who'd already told me he was gonna get one for himself, to get one for me as well and I'd pay him back. After work, I called and asked if he'd succeeded. Conversation went as follows:

Me: "Dude, did you get the tickets?"
Him: "Well, kinda. There was a problem. See, they only had two tickets left."
Me: "Okay. So, what's the problem?"
Him: "That's one for me and one for my girlfriend. Couldn't get one for you. Sorry, man."
Me: "But your girlfriend hates Muse."
Him: "Yeah, but she doesn't want me going without her."

Sometimes I just really want to punch him. He pulls that kinda shit all the time. Also promised to help me move, but called to cancel when the moving van was already in front of my house, because his girlfriend wanted to "sit around the house and watch tv together". Seriously, whipped friends are useless.

I was wondering when someone would do that. I have just released the kraken. Have a nice day.

I was promised that I would get a promotion in return for the absurd amount of overtime work I put into managing a multimillion dollar project last year. Didn't happen. Didn't even get a fucking "thank you" from upper management.

Your sister is kinda like the female Peter Molyneux
