I would have to say that most people don't fully understand humanity, if they did, then all of this "evil" wouldn't be happening. That's also why there's psychology. People want to understand each other in effort to removing this "evil".

People are shit.
We are not made in the image of some almighty god, we are the prouct of being stronger and smarter than other primates.

But seriously, who puts a dead sheep in someones locker?

I thought this was some kind of dark poetry at first.

On a serious note though, they are following the utilitarian principle of generating the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people, thus acceptable in their eyes. They're just seemingly strong enough to be in a position to be able to treat you in this way.

It won't last for ever and one day when you're happy, you'll look back in distaste on the outlook you have to humanity at the moment. Of course if you have that morbidly pessimistic outlook on the world you'll feel like that. Stop searching for the bad and look for and cherish the good in life.

I'm sorry but I went through an unfortunately hard time early at school and this is the advise I would have wanted. You're nothing if you can't use what is done to you to your advantage. Embrace it and make yourself a stronger, more resilient person for it, wallowing self pity is pathetic.


Also I hate to generalise but the attitude of many escapist forum posters makes me sick, its all "I have no faith in humanity" or "people are shit". Actively search for what is moral and what makes you happy and you won't be in such a miserable pit.

People are either, greedy, heartless or just plain stupid.
However, those smart enough to know that the world is shit and bad things are going to happen are tend to be angery people and take it out on others to suppress their own depression.

Honestly, I still prefer to be born in and live a life in a village of mud huts or as a freakin' cave man over this so called "development" or "advances". In other words, I'd rather live a life as an animal than a corrupt person as we all are.

Right. Well, I'm not exactly sure I understood the finer nuances of your... intresting little post, but I think I got the gist of it. For future reference, though, you might want to look into the proper use of capitalizations instead of Randomly Throwing Them Out Like It's Candy.

Oh god, I remember when I was like that as a teen. When everything was horrible and people were shit and I was the only one who saw them for the sheep they were and I totally wasn't emo and was seriously a mature guy.
(Although, on a sidenote, I think I never used stream of somewhat questionable consciousness as the means of communicating my deep and well-established emotional anguish.)

I still yearn to meet the past me and drive my (less mangled by everything and stronger) right fist up my past me's angsty-wangsty mouth for the good of all.
You'll probably feel the same way one day, when you're a bit older and a bit less angsty. If you don't, I'm sorry for your loss.

It's not even that really. It's the fact many of those people also consider themselves somehow above the filthy, stupid masses of sheep who cannot see the truth and insist on living in a "happy fantasy world".
Really, there's nothing to be proud of, or anything original, in confusing realism and maturity with angsty pessimism.

Eh, it sounds like you could use some professional help. Therapists are friendly :3

That said, totally not the scene for this sort of stuff - emo and angst don't go down too well. Might be where you are, whatever - find help, don't just pile it onto us :/

Also, "evil", "sheep", "grasp", "couldn't", "thrown" etc etc aren't proper nouns - they don't need capitalising. The trick is to put them at the start of sentences and for names, generally they're not used otherwise. Saves your shift key a ton ;)

I never understood how people close themselves to the truth of the world and ignore all warnings and do Evil things. I couldn't grasp why people found so much enjoyment in saying Death Threats and calling me names and people liking them for doing so.

I would have thought that other Humans would hate this kind of behaviour but in my personal experience people like it. Watching people Squirm from Pain and Abuse.

I Couldn't Grasp it and when asking Teachers for there Help they instead made it worst and i couldn't understand. But Using Physical Force people labeled me a Demon because of Trezu.

If humanity is Cruel and Evil then why would someone sacrifice there son to save us?

I never believed in religion because i wondered 'Why Save us'? sure there is good things in this world but the evil out weighs the good.

but then there are people who want to help others, But Teachers/Parents were supposed to help you where were they?

I Noticed in my Experience people being Rewarded by there Peer's for Stealing or having Sex i didn't grasp this either.

After getting Sheep Carcass Thrown into my locker and Vomiting in Disgust i never understood why they laughed at me vomiting?

When i was on the bus i notice People walk pass and put on a face like there happy but there so depressed on the inside. I wondered if they hate themselves why do they act happy?

Dammit, man, I'm not supposed to be laughing this hard with a sore throat. Makes me sound really stupid and hurts. And yet, you get a cookie.

Do what I do, assume they're all dumb. Works wonders. I've studied psychology for years now, and that's still the best answer I can give you. Don't try to understand, is not worth it.

Not everybody believes in the same evil.

Some people actually believe that evil is good, and vice versa.

It'll take more than just words, "evil" and "good" to sort these things out.

Why in the name of HELL would someone put a Sheep Carcass into your locker?! What kind of twisted person does that?

And perhaps you should consider reading some Garfield comics, you seem depressed D:.

Just try to remember, people like them end up with teen pregnancy, low income and housing estates.
People like you (you seem intelligent) end up successful to spite the shit you had to put up with in school.
Dont forget to look way down on them while your on top
Yup those are wise words I know few guys like that and now I am actually the one "laughing"...Okay sometimes I do laugh at it because hey, revenge is sweet especially if you had nothing to do for it, some people say laughing at others is bad and forgiving is godlike well FORK you, I am not god and I will have fun whenever I feel like it! But yeah situations like this make me love my life even more.

Self-identified misanthropes piss me off to no end. There is always an air of superiority attached to all of their complaints about "other" people. Instead of attempting to make even a few people's lives better around them, they shut themselves off from society and adopt a sterile, academic view of the world.

Bad shit caused by others happens to all of us. Deal with it and move on.

Seriously, saying "this is just a Pinch of my dark past and Present" makes you sound angsty and emo. Don't ever say that. :p
This. A thousand times this. Except for the ":p". That smiley sucks.

Shit happens to everyone, more to some than others though. Trust me when I say there are things from when I was in school that I would gladly swap for a dead sheep in my locker.
Now, I won't tell you to not hate them or whatever, because that's impossible. I hate the people from my school till this day, and I'm 27 this year.
The only thing that worked for me was retribution. Getting them back three times over was the only thing that helped, even if it got me into trouble with the faculty instead, it at least got the worst ones off my back.

I'm not saying this is what I recommend for anyone and everyone, nor do I think I have the answer for everyone that has a rough time in school. These are just my two cents and my experiences. Do with it what you will.

Come on people, no need to get on at the kid... Lets face facts, the gaming community has more then its reasonable share of bullied teens, a lot of us have been there...

I gotta say though, sheep carcasses? Laughing at you throwing up? Actual use of the phrase 'Dark Past'? Capital Letters for Every Seperate Point Made to Illustrate Them Further?

To THIS post I call bullshit, but trust me, bullying victims, get out of High School, get surrounded by intellectual equals and mature folks, and life gets much better =]

The most effective revenge against anyone putting shit on you is to be the best version of you you can be, and then watch them stagnate. Trust me. It'll happen. When you're an IT or accountancy major or whatever and they're doing some bum job in a shop, you'll get it.

As for why some people stand by and watch, that ones easy: Better you than them.

Species don't get to dominate a planet because they are nice (Yes, I am looking at you, Spore!) They get to domination through killing and breeding. That's the hole story. Evolution produces bastards.
