People are a whole lot more cautious than they used to be about who they open themselves up to and while it's never anything personal against you per se, people can't stop and take into account that not everyone is terrible but yet they treat strangers all the same. It also has to do with where you live. I live in Las Vegas in the majority of the people here are Hangers On so you need to be just as good as they are in their eyes or better or else you don't matter. Luckily there are still good people in this world. All the people I was hanging out with Friday night all seem to have really nice jobs and the guy who was hosting had a small home but it was still a really nice one in a residential area. They seem to work somehow in the entertainment industry as a few of them seem to work for a software company and at least two of them are cameramen. I'm just glad they don't look down on me like a lesser person because of my disability and having to be on Social Security.

I agree It's just harder for people to trust other people nowadays especially when they hear about all the horrible things that happen in the world.

I think the internet kind of makes it easier to make friends than real life though. It somehow feels safer to open up to people when you don't actually have to meet them. But the internet can be dangerous too because people lie about who they are and will prey on the naive and vulnerable.

Internet friends are good for people who don't really get out much and have trouble mingling with people in person. I used to be the same way but now I can say that real friends are so much more meaningful than people you know over the Internet, no offense to anyone if I just hurt your feelings because it's nothing personal at all. I just prefer real life experiences over digital ones because you honestly have no clue who you're talking to on the internet and people feel more obligated to be rude over the Internet because they know they can get away with it.

Remember how I said before that I always wanted to be a dark evil witch? Guess who my Disney childhood hero was a as a kid? ::big grin::

Honestly, who wouldn't want to have magic powers that can get them anything they want? ::devil::

I'd be brewing potions, flying, shapeshifting, zapping fireballs and lightening bolts out my fingers, putting mind control spells on people, conjuring spirits and demons, gaining immortality, and all that fun stuff. ::cool::

I just hope I don't get caught by witchhunters and burned at the stake or crushed with heavy rocks. ::EEK!::

I'm actually thinking about getting one of these for Christmas.

Seriously what horror fan wouldn't want a creepy undead mermaid doll? ::wink::

Well...alltho I gave up action figures some time ago, books I never gave up. So dig...I been tryin' to line up plans for New Year's Eve, so I hooked up 6 advance VIP tix to a funk show. I had to print a PDF what ever that is..::confused:: so I go to the library for help to print out my tix...They go "Oh you can't you our computers, your currently banned"
::love:: I love my little town library ::love::

They say "You've reached the renewal limit on these few titles here. Just bring 'em in and prove their not lost, and you can check them back out again. I'm all cool. Go home, get the goods, come back.
The librarian scoops up three good titles on puts 'em under the desk. I thought it was all cool and I could hang onto 'em a while longer::sad::nope. She had to take my Betty Page bookmark outta one of 'em::big grin::

I sacrificed Horror literature for live funk. I know that's wrong, I'm holdin' 6 VIP tix tho.::smile::

Didn't your mother ever tell you not to watch porn on the library computers? Mine didn't either and I got in trouble once as well, when I was 16 ::big grin::

I hate library computers. They always fuck up on me. ::sad::

I was 16 around the time when the internet started booming. I didn't have any money as a child in my family didn't either until I was 18 and I got my first computer. But before that anytime I wanted use the internet I had to go to the library. Needless to say I got in trouble and kicked off for a month for trying to print off naked pictures of Carmen Electra.

I have went and done a bad thing. I hadn't had a cigarette since the beginning of Summer and then Monday night for some reason I felt impost to buy a pack of cigarettes. I told myself all alone I was only going to get that one pack but this morning I smoked the last one and then I went and bought another pack. I have been drinking a lot of coffee lately and I think that might have something to do with it. I need to chill out on it. I was already having trouble sleeping as is before the time change considering I moved 3 time zones away but now that it's getting dark so early I am waking up really early and craving coffee. I am going to try my damndest to go tomorrow without it and after that stay the fuck away from it and cigarettes. I mean weed is already an expensive enough vice as it is.
