If we were on BG right now, I'd use the :safeface: emoticon in an effort to make fun of you, but we're not, so all I can say is just lol.

My friends always try to set me up. I want no part of that. So far, they have been disappointed and frustrated at my lack of effort. rofl.

Re: Divorce and cheating douchbags/whores

While I like some of people's views on alimony and divorce proceedings. I do find myself questioning our American society. As adults, we have an OBLIGATION to raise our children the right way. I'm not talking about God, nor ethics. I'm talking about patience. Patience is something I have not seen in a long time. The screaming kid in Wal-Mart wanting the toy, which his mother breaks down and ends up buying him.

WE HAVE TOO MUCH INSTANT GRATIFICATION.

How does this translate to our love lives? What most people see as love is not love. It is infatuation, more commonly known as lust, and it starts at a very young age. You all know the story of the girl/guy that you asked out in high school, and they completely blew you off to date somebody who was more popular/richer/had something you didn't.

Same reason why the age old tale of women dating assholes comes around. Women are attracted to the (mostly emotional) power these men have over them. They can make them feel like they're the queens of the universe by saying one word, or make them feel like complete shit. Most women are addicted to these highs and lows (and I've found, it's especially true for women who say they're no-drama.) They get in abusive (verbally or otherwise) relationships because they want the feelings the man gives them, more than the actual man himself.

Many young kids are given cars on their 16th birthday. College tuition paid for by their parents. Most kids don't know how to work hard for something. I read an article on how many college children are horrified of graduation because they're afraid to "leave the nest." This is all caused by our lifestyle. Instant gratification.

Just today, I was on facebook. A girl I asked out in high school messaged me. She didn't want to go out cause I didn't have a car at the tender age of 16. She instead, went out with a guy who had a car. They ended up having a kid together a few years later. Well, lo and behold, the guy was a complete dick, and never amounted to anything. She tells me that I look good and asks me if I want to go out sometime. I'm not a complete dick about it, I just say, "Sorry, I don't date girls with kids." She flipped a complete bitch and started going on about how I was selfish, and narcissistic. Apparently, it's expected of 24 year old men to be able to date a woman with a child. Because while I haven't fathered any of my own children, I should be responsible for the well-being of another man's. (I know somebody is gonna be like "It's not your responsibility, it's his", shut up, you've never dated a woman with a child before. I'm speaking from experience. It DOES become your responsibility from time to time.) Anyways, he never amounted to much. I just got out of the Marines, and have a full GI bill waiting for me (after I go back into the Navy. I want to be a SEAL.) I'm guessing she thinks just cause she has a vagina and I became successful, we'll both get what we want. Wrong. Looks like she's learning a hard lesson, too late in life.

We need to teach our children patience if we want them to be successful. You think that Spongebob DVD that they can watch whenever they cry about it isn't hurting them. In reality, it's causing them more harm than good.

Patience gives a person the ability to work hard for a goal. Instant Gratification gives them an entitled attitude. "It'll come to me if I wait and complain long enough."

TL;DR - Paris Hilton.

Facebook is a minefield of ex-girlfriends.

... Then don't friend them.

With regards to F.book... sometimes I get invites from the guy that was

a complete dick, and never amounted to anything

and at that time I wish F.book had a "FUCK NO" option where it would put on your page and as publicly large as possible that you denied the invite from said Fucksquat asshat.

I don't even touch that social media bullshit... I only eyeball twitter from time to time to see if anything cool was posted, I never actually tweet myself.

My family dragged me on to Facebook, I don't mind it too much, but I swear Twitter is so fucking pointless.

THIS! My family did the same thing too! Then they barraged me with trying to get me to play fucking farmville! Gah! I Hate twitter, and most social medias. Mainly because of the "sex bots" that go all over the place and randomly add you.

Re: Divorce and cheating douchbags/whores

I set my status to "in a relationship" long ago and no one bothers me. Anyone who knows me is free to ask me about it and I'll tell them the truth but I can't deal with the constant barrage for chat requests. It was even worse when myspace was the king.

I really don't mind FB that much anymore, I do wish that the pages were just somewhat customizable. Not to the extent that myspace's were, where you could embed (often shitty) music on pages and put all these godawful glitter gifs everywhere. I'd just like to maybe change the color of my profile from blah blue to something more my style. Would that hurt, Facebook? Would it?

Which is exactly what I implied.
