New Years Resolution

Post by Cnick946 » 22 Dec 2008 19:40

New Years is a little over a week away. Time to start thinking of some resolutions! Anyone want to share theirs, if they have one already of course.

I always fail at all my resolutions, but here they are anyway.

1. Read all the books I own and haven't read yet before buying any new books.

2. Grow a massive beard (possible in some weird style).

3. Save/pay off my credit cards at least $700 a fortnight.

4. Avoid getting another stalker.

Beards are sweet.
Mine are this
1. Use my time more constructively (study more, read more, exercise more)
2. Start playing some sort of instrument ( I am getting Guitar Hero for christmas but that doesn't count)
3. Just be a better person in general
4. Spend more time with my family while I still have them.

Yeah you're pretty funny :?. This girl wasn't, and you clearly have absolutely no idea how shit it is to have some ugly stupid girl follow you around, call you all the time and leave a million messages on your facebook wall. It's like having cancer, except the cancer is another person.

Purely for arguments sake, you couldn't give cancer a smack or two across the melon with a cricket bat could you?

Then again, that would be replacing one problem with another... :wink:

Yeah, and when you told Sam King "remember, down the road, not across the street," you showed that you clearly have no idea how unfunny and inappropriate it is to joke about suicide.

If "avoid getting another stalker" seriously is one of your new year's resolutions, then good luck with that. I just found it funny that you phrased it in such a backdoor compliment kind of way.

The comment about suicide was just making the point of how seriously he was taking the issue of my one line comment. I understood exactly what your point was, and I'm not saying it's not funny because it's an inappropriate thing to joke about, I'm saying you wouldn't see it as a backdoor compliment if you understood what's like. There's nothing complimentary or positive about it. It doesn't say anything positive about the person being stalked either.

Re: Adam. Well I have a few friends who are cops. Eventually I got them to go around in uniform and make it clear how I felt about her - as if I hadn't been absolutely impossible-to-misinterpret-"fuck off" clear before.

I liked this comment about the Christian side of Christmas better;

"oh yes and merry christmas: the holiday where christians celebrate the impregnation of a 14 year old by a murderous diety…who then lets a king slaughter all the under-2-year-old males in town! yay!"

So, my efforts to shame one and all into silent, grudging disagreement rather than open bickering, using Charles Schulz's beloved characters, has predictably failed.
