General rant about life.

[Col. Psycho]

well, im going to rant a bit. im annoyed and need to do so.







my mum's husband seems to think its cool to try and make friends with my friends. thats right, a guy in his mid 30's finds the need to make friends with people in the 17 - 22 category. Anyway, he honestly tries to act like "ong of the guys" around my friends, who laugh at him anyway. he wants them to come over for barbecues, insists we should all go out for a curry at the local, and always wants to come to the pub when i go with my mates.

He's being a [kitten] on the money front too. Dont get me wrong - i know i have it lucky that i dont pay much rent at all which is awesome and all, but the way he goes about getting the cash pisses me off the most. If we get into an arguement or whatever and he feels he should be an arseholes, he is like "hey wheres that money you owe me?" despite the fact that the money isnt for him but for groceries and what not. my money is tied up with the bank at the moment and i cant get any out until the new card arrives during the week. not that he gives a [poop], of course.

In other news, some of you may remember the thread in which i mentioned a chick im interested in. well, over the last 3 weeks ive been getting more and more involved with that group of friends and we often all go out as a group to the pub or to someones house. i was pretty keen on trying my luck up until friday, and i thought she was a good person up until last night. friday: i met her boyfriend, who is actually a genuinely nice guy. sunday: i found out she acts like a spoilt kid, uses people for whatever, and craves attention. then when she was ultra drunk / stoned she gave me [poop] over some random crap, saying i talk [poop] when im stoned (which i know i do, and everyone laughs about it with me) and how it annoys her. at that point i lost alot of respect for her. anyway the reason for this part of the rant is that i find it hard to understand that friends can be full of [poop] and two faced like that.

basically, thats the end of the rant. hope it wasnt too boring, and if it was, go die in a fire.

the end.

So many great forum stories today. :D

[Mr. Fiend]

My group of friends ranges from 18 to 30+. Just an observation.

Good idea putting this in Advice and Discussion.
I'm going to summarize it.

Advice: Don't be Col. Psycho

[PsychoMantis]

Everyone can be two-faced, just a fact of life. I've had friends for years who haven't backed me up when I needed them most; in fact, I've had them come out of nowhere to support the person against me. Live for yourself, then for your friends. Oh and step parents are the devil; I assume that's what you mean when you say your mom's husband rather than your father.

[Gopats]

advice in response to discussion: find friends who aren't full of shit and never get two-faced.

indeed. :(

im going to let her know that i think she's a bitch, and im going to let her know that her friendship isnt worth the effort. lets see how she likes that. :P

[Chunkywheats]

I can see it now...



"lol, mmmmk. I'll just go fuck steve. k?thxbai."



but that's just the pessimist in me

[Col. Psycho]

i politely explained she was being a little bitch on sunday night and she was like "omg im so sorry i didnt realise it, i was horrible to a couple of people, im sorry. :)?"

i was like "mmmmkay."

i was hoping she would get bitchy again so i could get a reaction out of her. :P an apology will just have to do.

[Noirceur]

Now you can use it to your advantage later.

[Afro Joe]

Heh. I'm like that with my dad's friends.
But that's probably just because I work where he does during the summer and all the guys there are super awesome. So basically my friends age range is 18 to late fourties

[Medlar]

Dude, Psycho. You piss on the husband's face. Then you piss on the girl's face. You walk away relieved in more ways than one.

Yeah I was gonna say what's wrong with a guy in his 30s being friends with your friends? If he's not a dick anyway, which this guy sounds like he is.

[maggie]

I'm in my 30s.
It's nice to know that you think that automatically makes me some kind of loser.

edit: not that I'm not a loser mind you - just that it's not having young friends that makes me one :D

[Col. Psycho]

no, its not that. its the way in which he acts and tries to fit in, and makes himself, me and anyone else related look like an idiot. i have mates in thier 30's, but they arent idiots who try and fit in, they have moved away from that, and are mature enough to realise that they dont have to impress anyone below thier age group for attention. So dont take it wrong maggeh, you arent an idiot or an ass or try and impress people to fit in with the younger crowd. he's just an ass about it, and is getting on my nerves.

on top of that, the arsehole came into my room when i was out with my friends, and took the machete i keep in my bookshelf for home defence, he went through the cupboards looking for his silly digicam cable insisting the cable was left in storage in one of the cupboards, even though i thoroughly went through the cupboards during the week and didnt turn up anything. he also saw my bong and grinder, and probably (due to his naive nature) that im doing crack or something else. he can go get fucked.

by the way, myself and that chick made up and afaik are good mates now. (we hung out for hours last night, and spoke about some deep things, and overall everything seems cool. she said that i'll get a phonecall later on today and we should all meet up and have a few drinks and a couple of games of pool.) :)

[BlindSite]

Out of curiosity have you tried talking to him about it?

Like, "hey, mate, I know you want us to be friends or whatever, but I need to be with my friends to get away from all the bullshit in my life in other areas, including at home, and I can't do that with you involved.
