Muscly people run in my family, we're not all muscly or big boned (actually big boned) but a few of us are. One of the kids is on his way to an eating disorder because the dick-bags he goes to school with find it necessary to comment on his appearance. A poor little 10 year old kid thinks he needs to be on a fucking diet, when in about 8 years the same little douche-bags are going to be wishing they had his build.

I am so fucking tired of this sort of thing. I know they're just little monster children, but monstrous children learn their ways from monstrous parents. It's like this giant, horrible circle of bullies.

Ah well, I just hope he'll be ok, he's got a really cool sister looking out for him.

Little bastards. Seems you cop it whether you're big or small. Is it awful to hope he'll stop internalising it and drop them on their heads?

ape descendant · 11-07-2013, 06:26 AM

I hope so. This kind of crap just breaks my heart.

Acharis · 11-07-2013, 07:25 AM

I'd post the link to the Casey boy who snapped and performed a piledriver on his bully, but that would look like I was endorsing real world violence. Have a cathartic video of Joffrey being slapped instead.

(Sorry. Bullies make my blood pressure climb.)

Can his parents afford to put him in a martial arts class or a team sport? That happened to a friend of mine and his confidence was improved despite his weight.

I am really happy that Jake's mom came for his graduation, I love having her visit, and I appreciate her helping with the move but neither she nor Jake seem to understand that I am an introvert and need time where I can hear myself thinking so I'm really stressed the hell out.

ape descendant · 11-08-2013, 04:39 PM

I don't know, they've got a lot of kids.

TheLonelyGhost · 11-11-2013, 10:18 AM

I know I'll come across as a drama queen bu oh well, half my life I've been ridiculed so I'm pretty much used to people treating me like I'm nothing. Right now I'm sick and tired of people looking down at me; I want to raise above this. Sometimes I wish I wasn't so dang sensitive but I am, many people told me that I should change but I'm happy with the type of person that I am.

Damn "some" people annoy the hell out of me, but I keep trying to make friends and put myself out there. Sorry but I needed to get this out.

ape descendant · 11-13-2013, 05:34 AM

Come now, there will always be people who look down on you. The trick is living in a way where the right people are looking down on you.

Can't please everyone, you've got to please yourself.

While riding the bus to go shopping for some much needed winter workout gear today I saw a large pile of trash and 20 feet from that a dead dog on the side of the road. For some reason, I became nervous about them before thinking, "Dude, it's been ten years since you've pulled security on a convoy in Iraq. Chill the fuck out."

Versus · 11-13-2013, 02:26 PM

Trash piles and dead animals weren't exactly the exception, though. XD

BourbonBoy · 11-13-2013, 04:03 PM

Heh, I know. It's just weird how the most random thing will freak me out.

Versus · 11-13-2013, 05:28 PM

Nah, I get you.

Fruitbat · 11-14-2013, 02:49 PM

Flamin' heck, fell into a big pile of nerves on the weekend. Broke into tears when a friend asked how I was. seriously batty? I usually tell people not to ask that question, because 1. they seriously do not want to know, 2. I will cry, 3. I don't want to cry - it doesn't get you anywhere, 4. I sound like a drama queen when I describe my life.

Must be time for a coffee because it's too early for a drink.

ape descendant · 11-15-2013, 06:05 AM

Awe, Batty, you have a lot going on. *hugs* If your friends are asking because they truly care, let them give you hugs and let their shirts absorb your tears.

Timeless Rebellion · 11-16-2013, 05:47 AM

I need to lose some weight for surgery this febuary.

This says it all.

Catch · 11-16-2013, 08:40 AM

It'll fine Timeless. People seem to have different standards for men and women. I think you look fine. idk

I'm just hanging around thinking about eating more chocolate.

Timeless Rebellion · 11-16-2013, 09:32 AM

Thank you

I do need to drop a few more pounds before Febuary, so dieting powder seemed an easy and fail-safe solution.

Saya · 11-18-2013, 03:25 AM

I had a customer last night who was outright ridiculous in her attempts to get what she wanted, and I caved, and I woke up angry about it and now I can't get back to sleep -_-*

Oh hun, thank you for your support.

I only usually cry when people do something nice for me... shite, I'd be screwed if I ever went on one of those shows where they renovate your house, I'd be a huge pile of blubbering jello in the corner.

better get back to pushing the roadtrain up hill with the handbrake on... sigh.. there are times when I feel like I'm walking over hot coals... if I stop and actually pay attention to where my feet are going, then I'm going to freak right out, so I'm just letting the worries go, and hauling my leadfilled ass forward, over the coals to the nice dirt on the other side.

Acharis · 11-19-2013, 04:52 AM

You know what Churchill said Fruity. If you're going through hell, keep going.

*squish*

Yeah, I'm just about at the end of my going tho. I've pushed so many times that now, I get to the point where I actually wonder what the hell I'm pushing through the hard times for? More hard times? More of this same old crap...

Plus I get so far, and then have a trigger, and then have to control the 'freakout session' because I have no option to fall apart, and then I really wonder if that was the best thing I could have done, because I have a sneaking suspicion, it ain't going to end well....

Ohh... fruity is a angry batty at the moment... and I thought I got my temper under control. It's okay, I'll take my grumpy pants off and get back to my idiocy and rudeness (maybe I could keep one leg in my grumpy pants, because they are mighty comfortable...)

MissCheyenne · 11-20-2013, 06:58 AM

Fuck my stupid step dad right in the arse. I hate him, I actually physically hate him. I just want to drop kick him in his stupid smug face. Two years have passed since Mum died and on the day, he spent the day posting pictures of his stupid ugly faced fiances engagement ring on fucking facebook. FFS

Versus · 11-20-2013, 07:55 PM

I'm considering medication. I really don't want to.

Miss Absynthe · 11-20-2013, 09:32 PM

@Versus - meds don't have to be a permanent thing (although they aren't pleasant to stop).. and a lot of people make a lot of progress on them. Good luck with deciding whether they are a thing that you want to try.. and whichever decision you make, it isn't final.. you can change your mind later.
