    That makes no sense. Like I said, I'm not a coward because I don't voice my opinion in front of people. Obviously I voice SOME of my opinions, but just not all. I could call you coward for calling me a coward, since I'm pretty sure you wouldn't say it to my face. :)

    The internet is a place to voice your opinion freely, free of consequence. Lighten up.

    "Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who can see how things really are. It seems like everybody is so absorbed in themselves."

    I don't know how you missed the fact that you put those two sentences right next to each other.

    You are not the only one who sees how things really are. But you've gotta understand that we all got thrown into this shitty world without our consent. Most people need something to inject some excitement or drama or reassurance or whatever it is their mind is craving into their lives. This is why we have religion. This is why we have ghosts and UFO sightings. And so on and so forth. I think some people are certainly more susceptible to this than others, but the fact is we're all delusional to some degree. If we weren't we'd probably all have hung ourselves by now.

    We'll believe whatever we need to believe to minimize our own cognitive dissonances. Like you believe you are the "only person who can see how things really are." Its just every other person that ever existed that is self absorbed and delusional. You must be god or something.

    Yeal, this could be the next step in your evolution.

    Realizing that people have their idiosyncrasies and loving them for it anyway.
    If a person has a passion for something you can just rejoice with them that they have a passion, true or not, and that they’re not just another robot, just making the motions of life?

    Like the ghost girl you don’t have to agree with her but when she shows you a picture ask her what she sees, kind of like being with a child and he points to the clouds and says look a horse and you say yes and look an airplane and you know they’re just clouds but it fun anyway.

    whenever someone asks me I tell them my honest opinion, everything from "you are unbelievably fat, please go to a gym" to "my god how fucking stupid are you? it's just a fucking clock." you don't understand because you don't have any sort of respect for what it is to be honest with the people around you, sometimes, you know you are going to hurt someone, and you feel bad about it, or you fear (that's a big part of where the courage comes in sally) reprisal

    you are an idiot, a coward, and a deluded piece of shit.

    enjoy going to fuck yourself.

    For all those people who excuse their rudeness by saying, I'm only being honest; if you were really honest you would admit that honesty doesn’t have to be rude and you are only rude because you like to be rude!

    free of physical consequence to yourself, you might mean. as you can see, there are clearly consequences to voicing your opinion, even on the internet - namely, people responding with their own opinions. people have replied to most of the things you said, but one thing from your first post went unnoticed:
    of course I can not know what steps you have actually taken but I can tell you that I considered myself a "really nice guy" at a time when I was really an intolerant, hateful piece of shit. I happened to have a job at the time, as well. didn't really say much about my character then, nor does it say anything about yours now.

    maybe instead of hating on people and calling them morons you could try to empathize; try and understand why they do and say the things they do. we're all human, and we all have our flaws, problems and issues. me, you, everybody else. (although of course some people are sadly less intelligent than others, but really, shouldn't that earn them our sympathy and helpful guidance?)

    How do I argue with that? I'm not going to be honest with a fat chick, that's just rude. I would really, really like to hear more about how I am deluded. That part got me interested..

    You just have to be more tolerant to these "morons". Sure, SOME people are self obsessed, and wrapped up in they're little world without having a fucking clue about life or the world. In case you meet one of these people, turn around and run screaming.

    But quite a few people, I'm guessing, can sympathize with your point of view, at least a little. Just try and do the same for them. Some people might think you're self absorbed and delusional, like you do them.

    No doubt about it, you are going through a serious mental and maybe even physical change. It's wonderful, change is good, embrace it.

    You are deluded in that you feel that you have reached a plane higher than those around you, and use any disagreement you have with them as evidence of this. Everyone is not like you, and just because you don't see eye to eye with them doesn't mean that they are still stuck in the place you were when you were a teenager. Which is essentially what you're saying. You're saying that you grew up, and that people who see things differently haven't. And that's about as fucking immature as you can get. So go figure.

    No doubt about it, you are going through a serious mental and maybe even physical change, it's inevitable. It's wonderful, change is good, embrace it. However, while changing and learning about ourselves we ALL make mistakes and have opinions others might find silly.

    Remember, judgment prevents us from being who we truly are. Let me try to explain. Think about how it made you feel when the girl said that you should grow up. Luckily, you said that statement helped you become a "good guy". But what if she said that to you and you were already thought of as a "good guy" to many other people. And maybe she was only telling you to grow up because you don't take life to seriously. Or, because you like to joke and have a good time (a characteristic we tend to lose after our innocence is gone). If that were the case then every time after you were judged, or told to grow up, you would think twice before joking around. Right? Eventually, you would turn into a person that isn't truly you. You would turn into "grow-up" girls version of you.

    So often you write judgmental facts about "morons in this world". You use the word HATE numerous times. When we are judged, and judge, we waste precious time on caring what others may think of us. You must learn to understand and appreciate the unique qualities of all people. Find good in them. For instance, if you really feel ghost lady's pictures are silly, laugh at them. No need to hate her for it.

    When you become understanding of other people's actions you allow yourself to be more free. Free meaning doing, saying, acting, creating, thinking, whatever it is you feel at that moment without fear of being judged and without hate and anger that can bring you down more than you can imagine.

    Give it a try. It may be one of the hardest feelings to learn but trust me it is well worth it. It won't come overnight.

    Next time you become impatient or angry with someone ask yourself why they are making you angry. Is it really necessary to feel that way? Is there anything positives you can get from that person. And if all else fails just let it be.

    "Where's your will to be weird?"-Jim Morrison

    Good luck

    the truth is the truth, an unwillingness to accept it is weakness, and is part of why humanity is where we are, I know the majority of my own defects are based in self deception, most of the defects of society are as well. hiding behind etiquette, hiding behind some outmoded belief that sparing someones feelings is the right thing to do? is wrong, it only does more harm in the long run.

    I tolorate gays, and blacks and jews and other religions.

    There is something inherently wrong with that sentence

    Thinking yourself more intelligent than another is of no consequence! It just makes you feel good. :ack2:

    One piece of wisdom looms larger as time elapses... the older I get the more I realize I don't know. When I was a 20-something I was certain I had the white knuckle death grip on reality the OP purports to have. Experience has a funny way of tearing down one's firmly held beliefs if one pays attention and I've found one thing to be true- the things that bother me about other people tend to reflect weaknesses I have myself.

    Also- trumpeting one's tolerance of "gays and blacks and jews, and other religions" suggests that one is actually repressing intolerance. I would wager that Yeal is the same intolerant character he was as a child and this form of repression and denial just suggests that the pandora's box of character flaws that is his psyche will explode at some point.

    You know saying something like that to make yourself feel better is just SO wrong. You call people you dont even know cowards and pieces of shit when you go around telling people what they dont want to hear or ask to hear so dont say it. YOU are the coward for not having positive outlooks on life and hurting people to that extreme. YOU are an angry little boy. How would you like it if some low life made fun of you if you had a disability or you were fat huh? Im sure you'll tell them to go fuck themselves but a lot of people get hurt with opinions and maybe go commit suicide? Huh? how would you feel then you jerk. you fucking grow up and think about what you say before you immediately start judging people that way

    Im sticking to my last comment. I DO see a lot more idiots on this forum then in life and its sad.
