The Official Rant Thread

[Aumaan Anubis]

I may try to get a picture of it soon. The pain wasn't actually that bad compared to the stitching.

He gave me a shot in my ankle, and then began the stitching.

The stitching hurt a lot more than the anisthetic did. Paaaainful. The anesthetic just didn't seem to work. Maybe he didn't allow it time to kick in.

Last time i got stitches, the nurse gave me a very cold bottle of numbing liquid, omg that stuff was cold! He poured he right on the wound, then came back like 30min later and took a shot and injected the actual main numbing stuff, it hurt a bit, but that cold numbing stuff took care of most of it, all-n-all, wasnt a fun day, considering it was the bottom of my foot and it happened bc my friend put a small drinking glass in my walking space, omg it hurt so bad a fell to the floor in an instant. But of course its prolly payback for when i pushed him off his bed and his foot landed on a big glass jug a yr prior.

Of course this all happened like 2yrs ago. The only other time i SHOULD of gotten stitches i didnt, i actually refused to get them. 1) Hospital bill 2) It wasnt bleeding that bad at all 3) I didnt even know it happened til i saw my pants had blood on them, even then it didnt hurt. That cut happened from a very bad and retarded quad accident about a yr ago. O btw all i did o the wound was use 3 Band-aids and pull the cut flap over top of the wound, it healed within like 3wks. Left one huge scar though :p

Whooo. You wanna talk about pain? Try getting a VCUG with limited numbing gel. Jesus Crist .

[OwnZ joO]

VCUG?

[DoorM4n]

What is a VCUG (Voiding* Cysto-Urethrogram)?
A VCUG evaluates a child’s bladder size, shape, and capacity, as well as the urethra. The urethra is the small tube that connects the bladder with the outside of the body. This procedure can also determine if a child has reflux — a condition where urine from the bladder goes upward back to the kidneys. This exam may be ordered after a child experiences frequent urinary tract infections.

DoorM4n made it sound embarrassing ...

But yeah, I have kidney problems.

[Remnant Samurai]

got excited by my xbox saying the dashboard needs an update but it wasnt the new one

[Rocky]

Of course this didn't hurt at all, like seriously no pain what so ever.. But I ran into barbed wire and it took out a good chunk of skin. Since we didn't know if I had a tetnis shot before we went to the good old doctor and it turned out I did (thank god, it would have hurt like a mother to get another) and he said I couldu used a stitch. Of course only to prevent a giant scar, so now I have a giant scar XD

[Aumaan Anubis]

Sent her a message over Facebook as I was unable to contact her over phone...

I've called you a lot, at night, usually.
You said we could hang out this week, so... yeah. That's why I've been calling. And all of my days off work are gone, yet I did try to contact you each night.
I feel like crap, 'cause you never answered, and you never called back. I dunno, maybe you're extremely busy(though you said you were free...), or some emergency popped up, but once again, I feel like crap.
Anyway, I've tried many times to organize to hang out with you, all of which you have blown off with what I am starting to believe were false excuses. Not to mention you never seem to return / answer my calls.
If you really don't want to hang out, for whatever reason, and we really aren't... I guess "friends?" is the word for it? Or not as good friends as I thought we were. I'm not sure. But if you really are trying to avoid hanging out with me that much, just tell me, Please GOD, just tell me, so I don't have to keep trying and hanging onto false hope.
If you do have a legitimate reason, please, do tell me. But if you're about to message me back and make up a false excuse, please, don't bother; just tell me the truth.
Lastly, I'm not sure why you would, but don't take offense from any of this. I'm not trying to hurt you or anything, just protect myself mostly from further rejections, and to protect you from having to hide all the time.
If you actually DO want to hang out, then I will keep trying to organize something, and I will keep trying to contact you, but one, don't do it out of pity, and two, don't do it if you don't want to.
Just tell me.

Ok you're right. I don't really want to hang out. I'm sorry but I'm telling you the truth, and that's what you wanted.

Most confusing and painful thing I've ever seen. I'd rather've gone through that stitching 100 more times than see that written back to me.

[Dragonfire]

Damn, that was stright forward and harsh, but think about it this way. Just maybe now you can go on with your life and think about others things (maybe other girls?). Idk, I actually do feel sry for you and all, ive been down that road once, but it was a little different with one of my ex's. Ok to further more this, heres how that relationship ended...

We had been dating for 2mths, started Valentine's Day, lol. Well I called her one Sunday morning to ask when I was to meet here at church. Well i called her that morning and her foster father answered the phone (hes a cool guy) and i asked for Nicole (which of course was the girl i was dating). I could hear her in the background crying or very upset i thought. So then he told her i was on the phone and she said she didnt want to talk to me, like in a very yelling voice. Then he said to her and to me i guess "She loves ya lots." and i hear her say (literally) "NO I DON'T!!" So i was kinda well........shocked and surprised that she said it like that, then he said "be right back." So i just thought to myself "Fuck it." and hung up.

Our relationship wasnt anything big, so i guess it didnt matter as much. Of course right now im in a relationship going on 2 1/2 yrs (started 1-28-06) and has been doing good. We're engaged (since Nov of last year).

But all i can say to you man, is o well and time to move on to something or someone else. OR you could try again, Email her and ask "How can I help make this work?" It never hurts to keep trying even after a rejection, just don't spam her e-mail, ok?

[DoorM4n]

DoorM4n made it sound embarrassing ...

But yeah, I have kidney problems.

Sorry about that, I just copied and pasted some information from a website. We all have something wrong with ourselves, physically or mentally. That has got to be the most painful thing I have ever thought about. I would definitely like to say, "I feel your pain" but I don't think I have received anywhere near as much pain that you may have gone through.

And Aumaan Anubis I have some advice. I don't know if I am completely aware of how much you liked her but it looks like you and her are completely different. Look, the best best best thing to do is find a girl with the same values as you. Honestly, you seem like the kind of guy who doesn't get angry at people nor do anything outside of the boundaries of good service to others. That basically means you are Spot-on pretty well. Do not feel bummed at all. This girl is nothing like you at all. Her simple reaction to you statement which was merely a comment of concern was outrageous and unacceptable, to me. It as if she was in a bad mood and laid it out on you; a mature individual, a girl you are looking for, will never do something like that. Dating starts when you think a girl is cute. The next process is to introduce yourself to her, not a huge conversation unless she leads into it. Then after that is when you ask her to get a mocha or go see some live music. Dating should not be a difficult process at all; it should be a way for both of you to relieve stress by hanging out with each other. She seemed like she was extremely immature and needs to grow mentally before she is ready to hold a real relationship. You seem pretty mature and look as if you are trying to hold a long relationship responsibly; this girl needs some growing up to do man. For her to simply refuse to answer phone calls shows immaturity and that she runs from issues instead of taking control of life and making responsible decisions. She could have easily responded in mature manner by saying, "Maybe we can hang out one day this week as friends, but I am not looking for a dating relationship at the moment." Or something like that. She is not the right one for you Anubis. She is simply immature, irresponsible, and doesn't fit your mentality. Do not feel bad at all. When girls don't answer phone calls from you that instantly tells you they need some growing up to do. I recommend dating somebody whom is mature, has lifelong goals, and has friendliness oozing out of her. Believe man. You just went through a stage that many people go through but come out successful by the perspective they take on the situation. Those who sit back and let this bug them will not get anywhere. You have a special gift man as a deep thinker. Use your head to find a positive perspective and live around this. The girl you just asked to hang out with hasn't grown up yet, simply because of how she reacted to your message. Adults don't act like that. You are looking for a girl who has future endeavors and is friendly to everyone. You are at that stage. Don't feel bad if you find other girls who are not at your stage yet. Most of them will below your stage still trying to grow up. Do not worry Anubis. You will find the right girl; the gift of life guarantees that if you truly strive for it. Remember, you will find lots of girls you may want to date but most of them are not at your stage, yet. In that case, just laugh. Take a positive perspective and live.

I really find it so immaturely stupid to not face the situation and not answer phone calls. Ugh, some girls don't know where they are headed. She does not. If I could just talk to you face to face to stress how immature she is with my tone of voice! Dude, seriously, from the sidelines, this girls got to do some fact facing. She hasn't realized how precious everything is. You are above that stage. You're a deep thinker man; it's a gift. Use your gift to find a great perspective on life.

[Dragonfire]

Look, the best best best thing to do is find a girl with the same values as you.

I disagree.

My fiance and i r about 1/2 and 1/2

[DoorM4n]

That is why I wrote best three times. It's fine if they aren't clones but the best best best thing is to have somebody with the same values.

[OwnZ joO]

A couple quotes for motivation.

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

Far better it is to dare mighty things to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure…than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in a grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

Bernie Mac passed away from pneumonia! Damn that seriously sucks; like, majorly.

Damn...that does suck majorly. R.I.P. Bernie

[Aumaan Anubis]

I am utterly surprised at what she said.

I've always recognized the common thought of how woman can never be understood, but this is just crazy. I thought I actually knew this girl. I thought I knew everything that really needed to be known about her. But this? This just doesn't make sense.

Why would someone like her tell things you wouldn't tell even normal friends, to me, if she didn't actually want to be a friend? What was the point? Why would she, herself, initiate conversation with me if she didn't want to talk or hang out? She, independently, would initiate a conversation with me, before I could even look at her.

She would dance with me at dances, she would pass me notes during class... I'm not one for cheating on a test but she would try to help me, anyway.

She is an attractive, brilliant, mature, creative, original, unique girl, who I loved to spend time with, and who I thought loved to spend time with me.

We got along amazingly at school, I can't emphasize enough how much we talked and hanged out there.

I look at DoorM4n's response about her, and I'm just shaking my head. That is not who she was. She did stuff, she was happy, she was mature! It just doesn't make any sense as to why she would break off the friendship without an explanation.

And I guess that bugs me, she just said, "No, I don't want to hang out." No explanation, no elaboration, that just confuses me for dear life.

I just don't get it at all.

[OwnZ joO]

Maybe she just didn't wanna be anything more than friends, and was scared so she avoided you.

[DoorM4n]

Maybe you can ease her way into saying yes by nonchalantly talking to her at school and acting as if your conversation didn't happen.

I hope I didn't offend you with my remarks above, by the way.

[Aumaan Anubis]

I wasn't offended, and have no reason to be.

And as for the idea, we don't go to the same school. We did in middle school, but unfortunately we seperated at high school. I see her once a year when our schools play football against each other.

[Dragonfire]

I think my desktop mobo just crapped on me (knew it was coming soon). Im on my lappy now. O well im getting a nw pc this fall for college

[Aumaan Anubis]

I feel really...

nothing.

I feel nothing.

[DoorM4n]

I'll pray for ya man.

[Aumaan Anubis]

'Tis a confusing life. One minute I don't care. The next I'm confused and frusturated. The next, I can't wait to talk to her in person so I can tell her everything. The next minuted I'm angry. And the next I'm happy.

Everything's on hold 'till I figure it all out with her.

I do notice that I'm not as cheerful, or hopeful, as I once was. I'm sorta calmer...

I also don't really care about consequences of what I do. Risks/bold moves mean less.

I've also learnt something else. All my life I've hated doing presentations, hated public speaking, hated letting people know what kind of TV show I watch, or what music I listen to, or if I'm playing a game and someone watches over my shoulder. Or if I write an essay, I don't want anyone except the teacher to read it.

It all boils down to being judged. I've learnt that that's it. I can't stand to be judged.

[Dragonfire]

I can't stand to be judged.

I think we all can relate to that.
