Your answer: Why not?Why does there have to be a "why"?
I find it interesting, this generated need for things to have "purpose" or a "why".
Nonetheless, I should add, I'm not trying to spark a debate here, as it is the wrong place to do so, but I merely am just curious for an answer.
Apparently you can only spew your personal agenda if you were here first.What bothers me is that someone can proselytize and justify it as "love advice", and then when opposing views come into play (you know, freedom of speech and all that) we have to shut it down.

Lord knows!If only it were that easy...
*joins the procrastination boat*
I think I've got this. I've got 4 major things due today, BUT one of said things is optional.
1. Revise all my papers for a communication class and write a memo about how my communication improved:
Not too bad right now, although my silly prof still hasn't graded one of the papers that I would need to revise, so that'll make this interesting. All I've got left other than that is writing the memo. Either way, it's due this evening.
2. Create a VisualCV (has anyone done this?) for extra credit for the same class.
Unless someone's done this and can tell me how long it would take to create a decent-looking VisualCV, I'm taking a shot in the dark at this one as soon as the previous task is done, since this is due at the same time. If it starts taking too long, I'm moving on, because this is entirely for extra credit.
3. Complete a set of programming problems for my Unix class.
Until I get word back from my professor answering questions, I can only hope the issues I gave him for the assignment are minor fixes. Otherwise, I'll be spending more time on this than I need to. It's due at midnight tonight.
4. Complete a programming project for my data structures class.
I'm furthest away from completing this comparatively, but the late penalty's really small (5% per day for 4 days) so if the worst happens, I'll be working on this tomorrow while celebrating my victory over the other, more urgent tasks. This is also due at midnight tonight.
I'm merely just hoping for once that I get all this turned in on time so I can get my two days off before finals start.
So basically, all this stuff is bothering me a bit. It'll bother me less once I get it done.
And the survey says that this plan was...Blah, taking a nap and posting about this stuff on SWF: Two of the biggest time wasters.
My plan still stands, I suppose. The leeway on everything is just a lot tighter now. X_X
I've been working almost nonstop since 7 AM and I have a final project essay to write and another exam to study for, then a final study session to wrap it all up. My first exam is at 8 AM. I'm not sleeping tonight.( -Really hoping Proverb is alright...- )

...I'm sort of like this, honestly.I feel like I should check with a doctor or something if I actually have depression. I have not felt a lot of happiness for the past two years. But I feel I will only be a bother to the people around me if I am depressed. I really do not want to bother people with my own problems.
If I am depressed I wonder if this is why I treat people around me like ****. It just makes me so mad. Every god **** kid in school seems happy almost all day. When the only thing I can think about is how useless I am compared to them all. I try my hardest it just isn't enough. i really have no place. I do not understand how I work my butt off getting B+ and A- only to see some idiot that can not get his mind on task getting straight As. WTF he always happy to twenty four seven. NOt a single sad thought ever comes into his head.
I also can not find any good thing about me. I tried to compliment myself, and I literally broke down with shaking mind last night. Of course I just ate my emotions and feeling before they could express them selfs. But I have to as I feel those parts of me are just useless waste.
It is not fun thinking like this. I do not how I even started thinking like this to begin with.
Yes, yes it is. My GF will NEVER play vid games with meMy GF will play video games with me jsut so she can do something with me/be apart of that part of my life
It's actaully really ****ing amazing.
I have prayed for you. I just hope all is well, and I see that your willing to go that far to help that other guy. That's really thoughtful of you Proverb, but I hope everything goes better for you. Can't wait to hear from you.If you would pray for me, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. I'll post back here sometime tomorrow to let you know how it all went down--or at least how I felt it went down.
thanks...im gonna check...I like my toes. I've had them all my life. Seriously. Go to your doctor. Is embarrassment really worth the loss of a toe?
exremely wrong.What's with all this god and faith talk? You do realize that all your actions, desires, passions, beliefs, and those of every other human on the planet are all the product of microscopic molecules crashing into each other at random directories and intervals? You do realize that there is no god, and there is no inherent "meaning" to life?
If anything, you need to realize that in life, **** happens. And for no good reason. The faster you come to terms with that, the easier life will be for you.
What makes you think we dont?Reality is not determined by something you believe in your heart. Reality is determined by reality.
What makes you believe we have souls?
Try explaining why instead of just disagreeing with me.exremely wrong.
I'm not the one making the claim (that souls exist). You are. Therefore the burden of proof is on you to prove that souls exist.What makes you think we dont?
Vice Versa, ironically.Try explaining why instead of just disagreeing with me.

You have no idea what you're talking about. He's the one claiming that souls exist. He needs to back up his assertion.Vice Versa, ironically.
Anyway, instead of debating with Proverbs which is inherently Sisyphysian, you should just give your own brand of advice to people. Encourage them through Existential and Nihilistic philosophy, rather than that mushy love crap. Make them embrace nothingness.You have no idea what you're talking about. He's the one claiming that souls exist. He needs to back up his assertion.
Ridiculous, as youre saying that the big bang happened.You have no idea what you're talking about. He's the one claiming that souls exist. He needs to back up his assertion.
The big bang is a scientific theory. As in, it has facts behind it, unlike religion.Ridiculous, as youre saying that the big bang happened.
Proof?
I'm sorry about that. I know I can't really offer much advice here, but I am sorry. Things have been getting real tough for everyone. Things will pull through, though--in one way or another. Just keep your head up and keep looking ahead.Here's what really bothers me. I've been living away from my mother for almost 3 years because I hated my stepdad. After living away the economy got ****ty, I lost my job, and then my dad got sent to prison for what he never did. Now I'm living with my mother again (involuntarily) and she is still married to that piece of ****. I can't get along with him. I really want to knock him out, and now I'm not sure if I'm emotionally stable anymore. I'm too **** angry! I still don't have a job, I owe *** loads of money, and I can't go to college because I can't afford it. Feels like the world keeps ****ting on me over and over again.
