Random Confessions

Why not just hand them a phone and put on Skibidi toilet to calm them down. /j

At full volume or it doesn't work

People have been telling me that I am a good son/good person for taking care of my dad for so long, but I don't believe them because if that were true, he'd still be here now.

Hey, I have been exactly where you are. We did our best, but sometimes that's simply out of hands.

The fact that both of our dads died surrounded by love and care was about the best parting gift we could have given them (a rare one, too).

The fact you’re there on his last moments tells a lot so I know that your Dad felt that love before he left this world.

Granted, if you take a fussy baby into a movie theater, I have words for you. Being a parent means sacrificing that kind of stuff until they're old enough to sit quietly.

When I was around ten-years-old, I went to watch "Chicken Run" (great movie BTW -- I love stop motion) with my family, and one dude took a baby and a much younger kid into the theater. The baby cried through the credits; the other kid claimed to be bored within five minutes.

They left, but DAMN! Even at that age I felt a strange mix of secondhand embarrassment and awe for all that burnt money.

Ehh I used to feel that way about babies until I had one. Now I just tune it out. If our kid ever started getting fussy in the grocery store or something, I'd take her out to the car to calm down. Sometimes babies just get overstimulated. They can't help it.

What you say is what most people would tell me, but sadly it does not work with me. I mean, when I was already 7, I was strongly telling my parents I didn't want a sibling. When I was 17, I had my first serious relationship and I strongly told my ex-girlfriend I didn't want to have kids nor marry. I kept on saying the same to the next ex-girlfriends, and with the one I have now I am also telling her the same. There is one curiosity, all my previous ex-girlfriends expected me to change my opinion for some reason, which means they didn't know me at all. I feel sad for that...

I love kids (not babies), but other people's. I want to play with them but to have the option to turn them off, like a TV. I am so sure I will never have kids that I could bet my own life without hesitation. And it seems they love me as well, because I know how to play as a kid, they don't want adults to play with them as adults, at least that's been my experience.

My home is for me, I like silence, being quiet and chill whenever I want. My life and personality isn't compatible with having a kid at home (or a noisy pet).

Never say never...

I got into fights a lot in Highschool. Like a lot, and I wasn't always in the right either. I got bullied a lot as a young kid, got into martial arts and fitness by the time I was a teen, and allowed my bitterness over being bullied before to turn me into an asshole. I had a really bad temper back then, and sometimes I randomly think about and lose sleep over I way I behaved back then.

 

[nobitakun]

And that's exactly what I meant lol. I am very curious, how much time does it need to pass until people believe what I say? if I need to die, so be it :)

 

[Xdqwerty Xdqwerty]

I pirate indie games, I kinda like femboys.

I stole the baconator sir, i can't hide it anymore

Making the decision to interact here, after CDRomance went down, and I thought it'd be good for me to try and interact outside of my private circle, has been one of the worst decisions I've made. Thanks for the roms though guys that'll always be appreciated.

I feel you. My father has cancer (and a bunch of liver problems) and my grandmother has Alzheimer. I try to take care of them anyway I can but we all have limits be they physical, mental or emotional.

The way I rationalize their condition and my role in all that is: I'm not the one to save them, but be like a parent tucking their baby to sleep, sing lullabys and rocking their cradle till they fall asleep.

What I'm trying to say is: don't beat yourself up with "what if" and "I should had". You did what you needed and what you could and thats more than enough

 

[ObscureJigglypuff]

Basically: get stuff off your chest.

Chest your off stuff get: basically.

I don't even have private circle, but i had thought about this too.
I feel better being alone.

 

[nobitakun]

Nobody can be alone, society has made big improvements on making that happening. But I would want a clarification, by being alone means being single, living alone at home? interacting only with private circle means you have only a few friends and family and ask them to go buy your food and your primary needs because you don't want to interact with strangers at stores. When you notice most of your friends and family members are dead, you can't live anymore, so you have 2 options: start interacting with strangers or die alone at home :O

In my personal case, i'm talking about being alone as being completely alone most of the time.

But I think this can be discussed in the appropriate thread, if there is one.

I tend to keep the change of the strore trips i tend to be tasked with, i take negligible quantities so it doesn't get too obvious

How old are you? lol. I remember doing those trips when I was 12.

27, but is usual here to still live with the parents as long as you help with a job

 

[nobitakun]

Yeah, I think most of the countries. I started to live alone when I was 30, but what I meant is, if you have a job, keeping the change is like...why do you need to do that lol.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I had forgotten about this thread already... Maybe I should keep digging through the WebArchive in search of more topic ideas lol!

A "free" bag of chips sometimes is never a bad deal

Don't give importance to the past Ranmy, now you're a sweet dude, ya know?
And we love you just the way you are <3

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I'm mad basically all of the time.

 

[Facesforce]

Ah, so confessions eh...
Mine are a bit more serious, but sure:

When I was working as a Military investigator in Japan, there was this body dumping case I was on, and to be honest I don't think I ever got over it. Sent me into a spiral of depression that led me to being homeless in Taiwan. Even though it's been years since then, I still feel haunted about the entire affair.

What else is there... Ah, I refuse to contact my old man due to the fact he is basically a regional menace that in his retirement has decided to become a small time drug lord, kicked my mother out and moved in two young women to get hopped up with him. Considering the man tried to blow up a bridge when I was a kid, this is technically a improvement.

Basically I feel guilty for maintaining radio silence on the entire ongoing drama with that side of the family. But honestly, I am a busy dad with my own family, don't feel like getting involved with redneck game of thrones, I think I am making the right call.

Let's see how many feds go nuts over these confessions.

I mostly don't shower during the weekends
