I Dont Understand: Humans

[Ampersand]

The main reason people are cruel is because they are afraid of you. You're a better, stronger person then they are and they know that you're mere existence throws into harsh daylight how weak and pathetic they are so naturally they want to bring you down to where they are. Be that as it may there are more good people in the world then you're aware of, and they're worth seeking out.

Yeah, didn't bother looking because I knew someone else would. Oh well. Still, regardless that's just really weird for a prank. And the advice still applies since its practically how I got through middle school.

I don't know if it is all the weird. It is no different that putting a bunch of rotten fish in a locker.

maybe its just because i'm terribly lazy but, as far as pranks go, I wouldn't want to be the one to have to haul a dead sheep into a locker. I mean, dead weight is always heavier than live weight and depending on the degradation of the corpse, handling it would be more punishment than the reward of the prank reaching fruition.

 

[Rottweiler]

While I feel for anyone suffering bullying...the over-dramatic and unnecessarily quasi-poetic nature undercuts the sincerity and removes a lot of my personal feeling in the matter.

What could have been an appeal for help comes off as over-done and makes me question the truth of it.

What's not to get? We're born, we fuck and we die. I think you've got a case of "nobody's willing to give you a break" on your hands. Don't worry, it happens to me too.

Sturgeon's Law.
Life sucks, deal with it. Humans are evil. I'm not religious, but even if there is a guy up there who is benevolent and all, the results of his making surely aren't. We're humans. We err. We sin. It's just human nature. Nothing you can do about it other than to take the high road.

 

[Zakarath]

Going a bit overboard on the capitalizing words thing, aren't you? I not might be one for philosophy, but grammar like that makes me twitch.

...The world is fucked up. Learn to deal with it.

First of all, I go by the general theory that people are jerks, which makes it all the more pleasant when you meet genuinely good people.

I never understood how people close themselves to the truth of the world and ignore all warnings and do Evil things. I couldn't grasp why people found so much enjoyment in saying Death Threats and calling me names and people liking them for doing so.

trying to understand a reason for something as subjective as opinion and preferences is usually very difficult to grasp especially when your forced to be part of it. It's like watching something on tv and laughing at someone getting hurt or playing a game where your main objective is to "kill" your enemy. Naturally, it's not good practice to compare real life to video games however, have you wondered many people seem to find it at least entertaining?

Other than my "people are jerks" theory, understand that people in a group feel safe there, and even though some of them might not morally agree with the group's actions they'll join in as well for fear of exclusion. After all, when your in a group that bullies people, you're constantly reminded about what your life might be like outside of it. Also people don't want to be targets as well which means less possible help from others.

I dont think you can expect god ( believe in him or not ) to just deal with any person who has wronged you or wronged many, everyones punishment / blessing is saved for them after death,this life is just to seperate who goes where later,even though things seem very grey(as in either/neither good or bad ), like what others have said if u act as weak as you feel it will only increase your weakness.

I would have thought that other Humans would hate this kind of behaviour but in my personal experience people like it. Watching people Squirm from Pain and Abuse.

I Couldn't Grasp it and when asking Teachers for there Help they instead made it worst and i couldn't understand. But Using Physical Force people labeled me a Demon because of Trezu.

If humanity is Cruel and Evil then why would someone sacrifice there son to save us?

I never believed in religion because i wondered 'Why Save us'? sure there is good things in this world but the evil out weighs the good.

but then there are people who want to help others, But Teachers/Parents were supposed to help you where were they?

I Noticed in my Experience people being Rewarded by there Peer's for Stealing or having Sex i didn't grasp this either.

After getting Sheep Carcass Thrown into my locker and Vomiting in Disgust i never understood why they laughed at me vomiting?

When i was on the bus i notice People walk pass and put on a face like there happy but there so depressed on the inside. I wondered if they hate themselves why do they act happy?

I feel this is not the right place to ask for help or advice. All we are hearing from you are the terrible things in your life, and though they might be as bad as you say, I am almost certain there are things that either make you laugh or smile that you are forgetting about. And people are really diverse, so it is pointless for you to try and understand humanity as a whole. The scale of doing so is probably completely out of the scale of human comprehension.

School can be terrible for people, and I think what has been said is really key. Put on a brave face. We don't mean lie to yourself or others about how you feel, but find some reason to believe it for real. If you still can't find it, talk to someone you trust and let them know.

We can give you advice, but it is up to you to realize that in your own life. But we can't do it for you

 

[Woodsey]

Wow. This is deep.

Well to each their own I suppose.

Looks like more garbage being piled into a gaming forum to me.

I don't think its garbage; clearly, when you extract all the random capital letters, it forms some sort of code.

And come on people, this isn't really deep. The post may as well have started with "Old Chinese proverb say...".

 

[LightspeedJack]

Yeah people suck but you learn to deal with it. Find some good people and something that makes you feel fulfilled.

 

[ezeroast]

Just try to remember, people like them end up with teen pregnancy, low income and housing estates.
People like you (you seem intelligent) end up successful to spite the shit you had to put up with in school.
Dont forget to look way down on them while your on top

 

[SilentCom]

I would have to say that most people don't fully understand humanity, if they did, then all of this "evil" wouldn't be happening. That's also why there's psychology. People want to understand each other in effort to removing this "evil".

 

[AlkalineGamer]

People are shit.
We are not made in the image of some almighty god, we are the prouct of being stronger and smarter than other primates.

But seriously, who puts a dead sheep in someones locker?

 

[Rafe]

I thought this was some kind of dark poetry at first.

On a serious note though, they are following the utilitarian principle of generating the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people, thus acceptable in their eyes. They're just seemingly strong enough to be in a position to be able to treat you in this way.

It won't last for ever and one day when you're happy, you'll look back in distaste on the outlook you have to humanity at the moment. Of course if you have that morbidly pessimistic outlook on the world you'll feel like that. Stop searching for the bad and look for and cherish the good in life.

I'm sorry but I went through an unfortunately hard time early at school and this is the advise I would have wanted. You're nothing if you can't use what is done to you to your advantage. Embrace it and make yourself a stronger, more resilient person for it, wallowing self pity is pathetic.


Also I hate to generalise but the attitude of many escapist forum posters makes me sick, its all "I have no faith in humanity" or "people are shit". Actively search for what is moral and what makes you happy and you won't be in such a miserable pit.

 

[Ike Jager]

People are either, greedy, heartless or just plain stupid.
However, those smart enough to know that the world is shit and bad things are going to happen are tend to be angery people and take it out on others to suppress their own depression.

Honestly, I still prefer to be born in and live a life in a village of mud huts or as a freakin' cave man over this so called "development" or "advances". In other words, I'd rather live a life as an animal than a corrupt person as we all are.

 

[OldRat]

Right. Well, I'm not exactly sure I understood the finer nuances of your... intresting little post, but I think I got the gist of it. For future reference, though, you might want to look into the proper use of capitalizations instead of Randomly Throwing Them Out Like It's Candy.

Oh god, I remember when I was like that as a teen. When everything was horrible and people were shit and I was the only one who saw them for the sheep they were and I totally wasn't emo and was seriously a mature guy.
(Although, on a sidenote, I think I never used stream of somewhat questionable consciousness as the means of communicating my deep and well-established emotional anguish.)

I still yearn to meet the past me and drive my (less mangled by everything and stronger) right fist up my past me's angsty-wangsty mouth for the good of all.
You'll probably feel the same way one day, when you're a bit older and a bit less angsty. If you don't, I'm sorry for your loss.

Also I hate to generalise but the attitude of many escapist forum posters makes me sick, its all "I have no faith in humanity" or "people are shit". Actively search for what is moral and what makes you happy and you won't be in such a miserable pit.

It's not even that really. It's the fact many of those people also consider themselves somehow above the filthy, stupid masses of sheep who cannot see the truth and insist on living in a "happy fantasy world".
Really, there's nothing to be proud of, or anything original, in confusing realism and maturity with angsty pessimism.

 

[Wicky_42]

Eh, it sounds like you could use some professional help. Therapists are friendly :3

That said, totally not the scene for this sort of stuff - emo and angst don't go down too well. Might be where you are, whatever - find help, don't just pile it onto us :/

Also, "evil", "sheep", "grasp", "couldn't", "thrown" etc etc aren't proper nouns - they don't need capitalising. The trick is to put them at the start of sentences and for names, generally they're not used otherwise. Saves your shift key a ton
