You can over-dose on coffee. (I'm sure that fact has put seveal people off their espresso).

No amount of make-up, clothes or (goodness forbid) surgery can improve how you feel about yourself, you have to learn how to like yourself as you are. (This is something I struggle with but I believe it's true).

Eventually, you will find yourself in the presence of someone who is better at all of the things you're good at, and whom you can't get away from until they've demonstrated their superiority, and maybe not even then. It might not even be a talent; I'm living in the same dorm as my ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend, and I can already tell they have everything we had, and more.

Everyone will be forgotten someday, likely shortly after they die.

There will always be times when, no matter how hard you try, you can't make a difference.

If you think she's out of your league, she probably is.

There's nothing you'll experience in life that someone else hasn't experienced before.

You'll spend most of your life trying to escape from it. (video games, movies, etc.)

You're only X-years-old once.

This post has inspired me to prove everything about it wrong, most other people who read it only solemnly agreed.

Most posts here are spouting depressive non-sense, you people should cheer the fuck up.

The girl I like might like my best friend. Who may or may not like her.
While most of my friends went away for summer vacation, I sat on my couch, and contemplated asking out my crush, life, and the universe.
I probably am my worst enemy, because logic is my greatest asset, and my biggest downfall.
My mom is a horrible person.
I can never have a perfect day, because I will be reminded of my worst.
There is probably isn't a God.

There are unlimited possibilities for you to reach out and make thousands of lives better in huge and lasting ways, should you decide to actually go put in the effort necessary to do something, but you're wasting your time posting on some video game forum on the internet where the probability of anything anyone posts doing any iota of good at all is practically zero. I acknowledge my own inclusion in this truth, and I'm using it as a motivation to turn things around for myself. Hopefully, at least one of you will in some small part join the effort.

- You're not as intelligent as you think you are.

- Teenage angst is not edgy.

- People talk about you behind your back.

Evil is easier to be than good, and is typically pays off more.

The moral high ground is easily taken from those of weaker standing.

You know, I barely think about it, it really doesn't bother me that much and he's actually not that bad of a guy. But somehow, you just made my day. Thanks.

What I find even worse, often, when you think someone is making fun of you behind your back or wondering what your crush is saying to his/her friends about you, they aren't even talking about you.

My intelligence came with a price. 142 IQ and I am lazy, overweight, have ADD, and almost zero social skills. The only women I can get are hookers and the only friends I have are people who usually take advantage of my kindness.
The real uncomfortable truth is that your laziness, high weight, lack of social skills and the company you keep are all your own fault, and you can't blame anyone else or your intelligence for it. You need to get out and learn to have all the things you desire, or accept not having them, not sit in the middle singing your want song and not doing anything about it.

Half of it sounds like angst and pessimism to me.

OT: Wearing a skirt will make guys try to look up it.

I know this because I've done it before....(Looked up skirts, not worn one.)
My uncle has shoes with a mirror on them, and I don't consider him a pervert lol.
OT: Love is a lie and every one you love, hate, adore, and stalk will die, and you are lucky if you die before them. You will probably have 8 different pets that will die before you and eventually you will forget them. If you don't act stupid when your young, you'll regret it when your old, if you are dumb when you're young, you will regret it. Justin beiber will be considered classic one day. If you don't make any stories to tell now, you will make them up when your old (just like your grandpa) Paris hilton is dumber and less deserving than you are, and will always have more money.

Deep down, at the very core of my soul...I know I could be the bad guy.
That's a fact, I'm very well aware of too. (about me, that is)
I feel like you understand. You are a toasty too! Toasties rule! We must never become Sub Zeros!

I will try my hardest to never, ever become the bad guy. :)
I know that I've indulged in some excessively dark thoughts before, that's how I know I could be the the bad guy. It makes me think of one of Bastilla's lectures about the Dark Side in KotOR, where she talks about how it can sneak up on you. I can't remember her exact words, but the gist of it went something to the effect that if you're not careful you may not even realize you're headed down that path until it's too late; and I think that's just as applicable to real life as it is to Star Wars. There's another inconvenient truth.
But you're right Aylaine, us Toasties have to stick together!

Here's another one, while I'm at it, pessimists are everything holding society from greatness. The only thing keeping people from progressing is their negative thoughts about themselves and others. Also, how you look at other people is nothing more than you observing a picture of how you see yourself. If you hate others, it is because you hate yourself, if you love others, it is because you are happy with who you are.

Eating a banana and making eye contact with somebody at the same time will always result in an awkward pause and inevitable sexual tension. No exceptions.
