Why in the name of HELL would someone put a Sheep Carcass into your locker?! What kind of twisted person does that?
And perhaps you should consider reading some Garfield comics, you seem depressed D:.

Yup those are wise words I know few guys like that and now I am actually the one "laughing"...Okay sometimes I do laugh at it because hey, revenge is sweet especially if you had nothing to do for it, some people say laughing at others is bad and forgiving is godlike well FORK you, I am not god and I will have fun whenever I feel like it! But yeah situations like this make me love my life even more.ezeroast said:
Self-identified misanthropes piss me off to no end. There is always an air of superiority attached to all of their complaints about "other" people. Instead of attempting to make even a few people's lives better around them, they shut themselves off from society and adopt a sterile, academic view of the world.
Bad shit caused by others happens to all of us. Deal with it and move on.

This. A thousand times this. Except for the "Xodyac said:Seriously, saying "this is just a Pinch of my dark past and Present" makes you sound angsty and emo. Don't ever say that.
". That smiley sucks.Shit happens to everyone, more to some than others though. Trust me when I say there are things from when I was in school that I would gladly swap for a dead sheep in my locker.
Now, I won't tell you to not hate them or whatever, because that's impossible. I hate the people from my school till this day, and I'm 27 this year.
The only thing that worked for me was retribution. Getting them back three times over was the only thing that helped, even if it got me into trouble with the faculty instead, it at least got the worst ones off my back.
I'm not saying this is what I recommend for anyone and everyone, nor do I think I have the answer for everyone that has a rough time in school. These are just my two cents and my experiences. Do with it what you will.

I personally believe that the drive behind ridicule in the developing stages of humans stems from the need to improve as a collective. If you're weak, you get bullied in forms that force you to be stronger or withdraw from the social interaction and lower your chance of breeding. This concept applies to all forms of disability. It's been humanity's imperfect form of self improvement throughout all of recorded history. It's an unconscious action, and most people will fall into the vice of bullying others at some stage or another regardless of how well they regulate themselves.
Jeeze you sound like me... only when we were told about a suicide in school and everyone was crying and I was laughing under the statement "natural selection at work"(he died by jerking himself off while playing the "choking game")Trezu said:
I was called cruel and evil for taking death so lightly, I simply replied that 2 people die a second and you don't give a crap about any of them and-
blah blah blah
you get the idea
I don't understand people either...
Why do we take this at face value? It seems like despite the obvious warnings of over-dramatization and quasi-poetry we assume this person is being factual?
"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."
Why do they do this to *you*? A fair question is why you're a target of this behavior, and I wonder both if they actually do what you claim and/or why they would.
"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."
A classic use of the term 'Human', not only capitalized but used in a manner which suggests the writer does not consider his or herself identified with the term. Elitism much?
"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."
Did you use verbal capitalization and assume you were correct down the line when you 'asked' teachers? Did you approach them and demand they correct your social problems while at the same time complaining that nobody understood your Crimson Woe?
Myself, I'd be fascinated to hear from these teachers and see what they say.
"If humanity is Cruel and Evil then why would someone sacrifice there son to save us?"
I sense you were spoken to by a Christian about the issue.
"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."
Might I ask...how much life experience you base this on, other than a single high school in a single place?
"but then there are people who want to help others, But Teachers/Parents were supposed to help you where were they?"
Good question. Can you answer it? Or is the more likely answer that you have effectively alienated yourself from all sources of advice because you refuse to follow it due to your insistence on pathos and a form of individuality which causes you to offend or alienate all potential peers and mentors?
Just throwing that out there.
"I Noticed in my Experience people being Rewarded by there Peer's for Stealing or having Sex i didn't grasp this either."
That's a common complaint, won't comment on the validity because this was going on when *I* went to high school...and uncomfortably long time ago.
"After getting Sheep Carcass Thrown into my locker and Vomiting in Disgust i never understood why they laughed at me vomiting?"
To explain: they played what is referred to as a 'practical joke' on you. I imagine because their experience of you involved some kind of aversion either to meat or animal abuse, but maybe random. They laughed at your reaction to it. This is pretty standard for practical jokes, with the classic flaming bag of poo on the doorstep being an example.
On a more broad note, the laughter was due to social dynamics of teenagers. Those who are 'different'- especially those who are vocally and visually different- are pressured by their peers to conform. This happens in every social group on Earth, and hasn't changed since Babylon and probably earlier.
"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?"
And how do you know? If they put on a face, what evidence is it you acquire which makes you 'know' different? Or are you basing this statement on your own deep 'experience'?

You see here kids, this creature is what Anton LaVey calls an emotional vampire. The crap angst and acne poetry is doing you no favours. You seem pretty content in wallowing in your own self pity so there I hope you stay.
Old emo copy pasta is old?
That's how the world works dude. So you recognize it. Good now figure out what to go do with yourself.

Personally, i find that we, as a species, are programmed to be in a moral grey, it is not the fault of the individual in my eyes; people lose their way due to the failures of society to demonstrate the correct way to act. School is a big example, the lack of a functional penal system to prevent bullying allows for thugs to throw their weight around and think its okay, as a sufferer of bullying when i was younger, i can partly relate to your disillusionment with people in general due to personal experience. However, i refuse to believe that humanity as a whole is evil; in certain occasions, we witness the dark side of humanity: murder, extremism, rape, etc, etc, but no-one ever talks about all the humanitarians out there, the charities that help those in need.
In this world, it is far to easy to give into hate and to refuse to trust other people, but that is exactly why we have this problem, that same disillusionment you feel means that the cycle will forever continue. It may be hard to swallow, but in order to prove humanity is not evil, you need to stop looking at the evils of the world and look at the good. Others may hate one another but i physically cant just conclude everyone is evil, if someone were to get into an accident and i was there, i couldn't just ignore them. Rise above anger and be what others couldnt: A person who lives for others.

Hate to be the one to admit this to you, but good humans are an endangered species. The best you can do in school is stay alive, and if that means fighting, then so be it. And when you're out of there, do what you can to change the world, don't expect someone else to do it, cox there are thousands who try but few even make a dent in this world's relentless cruelty, so we need as many people trying as possible to give us, the morally decent minority, a decent chance.
