Who are you? What's your story?

[Garnet17]

Now I'm usually not the type to pry into other people's lives but It's getting late at night and I am bored out of my tree.
Let's start with me:
If you are reading this then that means that you are about to know all there is to know about me. In that aspect I completely trust you. Congratulations.
I grew up never knowing my dad, because at a young age I was told he died the month my mother was pregnant. My grandfather dying when I was so young I never really knew him when I should have. I never had any friends. I grew up staying in the basement watching people live their lives. I was afraid of the outside world. My whole life until now I have been beat up, judged, criticized by society and it’s mindless drones. The loss of many people in my life has made me bitter and resentful towards life, god, and society. I never expected life to be fair, never have never will. I have gone through and put up with so much I have already snapped. I’ve stopped caring what people think, I’ve stopped caring what happens to anyone. I finally thought I had friends nearing the end of grade 8 but they ditched me in grade 9 because I thought differently, I was smarter, listened to different music and I knew how to hold up an argument. They beat me up and ditched me because I was different; Unique. That made me feel worse about myself. I am hated. I hate all. I have murderous tendencies towards very many people. I hate generally all people. There is but 4 people I do not hate. My girlfriend Steph, my friends Kyle Justin and Jesse. In that you are allowed to know generally all there is to know about me. I am Sam. At times I can be a blunt person, more often yes then no. I'm pretty cold, so i have been told. I'm not heartless and I'm not extremely emotional. I've been told I am a cynical misanthrope and the only part I agree with is the misanthrope part. According to my friends, I am extremely unique in the way that you would be lucky to have me on your side, I'm not sure if I believe that. If I don't know you, I won't be much of a talker but I am a good listener. When getting to know me you may find that I can be funny, but all it is, is that I'm being normal and myself and after a long time of knowing me you will figure out that alot of my views and opinions reflect my personality and how I act around everyone. If we are good friends then I am a good person to have around, for conversation purposes and maybe if you need to talk about something. I do not wish to harm you, if you give me a reason to then you better be careful for I am everywhere. I hardly go out during the day because I do not wish to deal with the real world, I only go out during the day to grab supplies(food) and to go to school. I'm in grade 11 and I'm much hated at school, I have a few good friends and that is all I need to survive the rest of my days. Having a very bleak outlook on life has it's perks dontcha think? -.-


Alright everyone, your turn.

 

[Specialized]

I grew up in Texas in a small town outside of San Antonio. My father was owner of a remodling company and my mom a bookkeeper and teacher. My parents split up when I was 9 and I moved out here to Georgia when I was 10. I went to school here from grade 5--12. Middle school was lame. I didn't have many friends since I had a diff middle school every year from 6-8. High school was a blast. I partied my f'n nuts off and enjoyed every minute of it. I ended up getting the honor of "Most Attractive" in our senior yearbook. Since high school I've done a little college at UGA. After my accident things have changed but I'm still as happy as can be. My life is progressing into the best direction possible.

hmm.. quite an interesting thread. but id rather keep myself bottled up.. oh, and silent could tell you all about me, since she's been stalking me ever since i got on these boards.

 

[andcuriouser]

Indeed, interesting thread. I'll... edit mine slightly; some things I'd rather omit.

I was born in Norway to a Norwegian university professor and a Canadian Christian fundamentalist. The second child in what was supposed to be an only-child family, I grew up very close to my father and older sister, but my relationship with my mother was rocky at best. I can imagine that she spent a lot of her time thinking of creative ways to punish me. After almost dying of hypothermia at age six, my dad was convinced that moving to Canada was in our best interests, and the whole family packed up and moved to Ontario. My dad and mom already spoke fluent English, but both my sister and I didn't. In Canada, we were basically immersed into the language, and told to muddle our way through. I had a really heavy accent for years, and I absolutely hated it. As a result, I was really quiet as a child, because I didn't want people to hear that I had an accent. Eventually I started to feel more comfortable speaking, and now you can't even tell that English isn't my first language.
My mother's "punishments" only got worse with time, and everyone seemed to get really creative in hiding it from my father. I had one very close friend before high school, but she was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma (a type of bone cancer), and finally succumbed to it when we were in grade ten. I fell into a different crowd, and at fifteen got into a very bad relationship that lasted almost three years. I started to get really bad panic attacks in high school. That same year I told my parents that I am gay, and received a stunningly negative reaction from my mother, which doesn't need details, but trust me: it was pretty ugly.
At seventeen I was accepted into the Ontario College of Art and Design, conveniently eight hours away from my parents'. I moved to Toronto with my sister (who was going to U of T), and I started over there. A few days after my eighteenth birthday that winter, I met the wonderful Matthew Trope in a little club, and found that we were really compatible people. We became really great friends, and he helped me out so much. I really made a mess of myself shortly after meeting him, and Matt was quick to offer me a place to stay and get back on my feet. While I lived with him (and his wife), we fell in love. Matt left his wife that August, and we've been together ever since.
I graduated from OCAD, and when we got the chance, Matt and I moved to another city. We got married November 18, and now I'm pretty much just kicking it. We hope to adopt children soon.

Bleh. I am terrible at summarizing things. I'm honestly going to finish that damn autobiography...

My name's Joey. A lot of people know me as JT. I grew up in St. Paul, MN all my life. I never saw or knew my real farther. I'm going to a community college for law enforcement. I don't really like it though because I feel like I'm missing out on the "dorm life". I have a girlfriend that I've been with for a year and 9 months today. She went to a 4 year college this year about 2 hours away, which was one of the hardest things that ever happend to me. I work and go to school. 80% of the money I make goes to bills. And I'm currently trying to save for a newer car.

I was brought up in a loving but religiously screwed up family. It's because of this that I am now opposed to all organised religion. I got married in Australia to an Aussie girl over 4 years ago. My wife suffers from ME so can't do a lot and is in bed a lot of the time so I care for her. That's why I'm at home a lot of the time and spend so much time chatting on here.

alright, i guess i can spill the beans. all 5 of them..

it all started on or about january 7th, 1987, at 1.10 in the morning. i was born in neptune, new jersey, to interesting parents, so i gather today. my dad, from what i gather, was not a very motivated man, and didnt really have any drive to get anywhere in life. but he did get a degree from college. so did my mom. she was a religious one, probably nowheres near andcuriouser's mom. nor whas she as creative in punishments. the basic grounding type things, spankings, no food for you tonight ... anyways, around 5/6 years old, my mom and dad got separated. his smoking and lack of motivation just wasnt making things work, and my siblings and i moved in with my mom's side's grandparents. wonderful people they were. anyways, on may 24, 1993, my dad died. it was really hard on my mom, because the next day is her birthday. so, around september 1993, my family mom and me, and my sister and brother, moved down to south carolina. we had an unlce down here before we moved, and i suspect he had something to do with the move, influencing my mom to move down here. not a bad place either. went to public schools ever since. nothing much happened in elementary school, not much in middle school ( high marks, nothing much ), and high school. heh, that was fun, but not in the way most people think of "fun". it was enjoyable. i kidded myself when i actually went, thinking i hated it, but hindsight is usually 20/20, thus, i miss it now. wished i played football, but alas, i also kidded myself about not liking football. i dont watch every single game, nor do i search online to no end to get every statistic to keep me updated on scores or other items of intrest. i was in the marching band for 2 years, actually, the first was in middle school. i played the pit. not just in the pit, i played everything in the pit. the pit is a conglomerate of items that are usually not played on the field, because of their low actual play time. the second year, freshman at high school, i got on the snare line. that was a much better place than pit. i also saw a chick i liked, and still do to this day. have to go talk to her soon, see how she is doing. about junior year, the automotive flea bit me, and i took an automotive technology class, but it was not offered at my school, so i travelled to another school every morning. there was another chick i liked, but she was more for friendship than anything else, not like the band chick .. anyways, senior year comes around, and my school has a brand new automotive lab. i still dont have a car though, and i was the last one of five from my school that went to that other school for autotech, that didnt have a car yet. but i took a teacher's assistant type "class" for autotech. just wanted to be in autotech. .. well, second half of senior year rolls around, and i get auto tech 2. thats in january. january 28th, 2005, i purchased my first car, a 1999 mustang gt convertible, 4 speed automatic with overdrive. yes, a damn automatic. the first thing i did was get an oil change done. at that new autotech lab, and i did it mydamnself. did 2 more every 3k miles. graduated high school with a 3.12 overall gpa. not the highest, but not the lowest. was in the top 30% of my class, or 51 of 178.

[there is still more, but i got some shit to do. later]

i dunno what it is about you specialized...but it seems like every other post I read from you makes some reference to the fact that you are "most attractive" or have lots of money or something like that. I could be wrong but you do seem to want to point it out a lot to the people around here.

I was also thinking that. You make it sound like you had it good all your life. No offence or anything.

I've seen certain other people be just as "proud."

 

[BreakfastSurreal]

well i guess it depends on the things you are proud of. Theres a difference in being proud of somehting you have worked for and being proud of something that is just given to you in my eyes. If you want to call me out next time, just call me out ok? I'm not stupid.

 

[UncleBacon]

ok lets not turn this into an arguement.....merry christmas remember...now back to the story of your lives

Okay.

Don't be a hypocrite is all i'm saying.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I'm pretty sure she's not being a hypocrite.

 

[UncleBacon]

lets not turn this into an arguemenet and drop it....back on topic

 

[TheOriginalJames]

OUZ doesn't argue though. He made his point so he's more than likely done.
