When you need to rant...

At least you're all growed up now, eh @Any Del?

Yes. Is it because of Patrick Star? Or the bickering of the blocks and strikes on my channel?

So, I was kind of angry on Tuesday and honestly wanted to take a few days off but my break was kind of cut short after being dragged into a moment of another user known for spitting out nonsense like always on the replies thread. So I may as well come back.

Anyway, honestly, I'm just losing my trust with people this year.

I recently cut ties with yet another friend recently, and this one actually upset me a bit. It was a girl named Lizzy I used to be good friends with when I was at Landmark. I always enjoyed whenever she'd come to visit (she graduated associates before I came over, and she was dating my now ex-friend James at the time). I remember in my dorm we would goof around making funny videos, watch anime, play Super Smash Bros, etc. She was very outgoing.

But as the years went on, and as the dreaded 2016 elections came with Mr. Orange oompa loompa crybaby and Ms. You HAVE to vote for her just because she's a WOMAN, she was slowly starting to change, and overtime, she went from very outgoing to a very annoying cowardly political SJW. Almost everything I was seeing on her Facebook page was just crappy negative political junk and there was SO much drama on most of her posts that half the time she would end up deleting them. It got to the point where I had seen enough and unfollowed her.

Then, on Tuesday of this week, I was joking around with my friend Nick on a photo he shared about slipping maruijana candy to kids on Halloween because we both have a good sense of humor. I wouldn't ACTUALLY do that, and even if I did, it would at least be a strain that wasn't so strong and it would be in a small dosage. She tried starting **** with me, trying to make me look like an ***hole over a small, dark joke like "oh that's such an awful thing to do cuz dey kud have panic attacks!!!!1111!!!"

Oh, I'm sorry! I believe this is the same girl that laughed at my friend/roomate Mike when he made a joke about bringing pot brownies to PTA meetings and drugging random Landmark students who could have easily just as much had a bad experience. So she was in absolutely no right to call me out for that. Yeah, I get my joke had smaller kids, but that doesn't make it okay to drug older kids who never had that experience.

I ended up calling her out and putting her in her place and blocked her. She was also a real hypocrite for chewing me out because she can't handle negativity being thrown at her herself.

Her boyfriend Teddy is just as easily an immature child and I'm actually gonna post something about him on the politics thread (and @D'Snowth I'm tagging you in this so I hope you pay attention).

Not only that, but I'm also angry about what happened to my vaporizer. This is my own fault, I will admit, but I accidentally killed it by pouring alcohol inside and turning on the heat so as to melt any gunk inside. Biggest mistake.

Thankfully I got in touch with someone at Pax, but instead of simply sending me out a new one under my 10 year warranty, they want to look at it first, so I have to ship it out and wait longer than I need to.

rant over.

Eventually its gonna come down to the point where you would only have one friend or none at all.
Nowadays trust begets nothing.

 

[LittleJerry92]

Yup. People change overtime, but thankfully I have friends that I've known for a long time and know have my back.

 

[LittleJerry92]

So this is one thing I quickly want to get off my chest.

I really hate that Pax wants me to mail my vaporizer to look at it and determine if they can fix it instead of just mailing me a new one.

While I understand they just want to make sure, it's just frustrating for me because it just feels like I'm wasting my time doing this.

looking forward to just getting this nightmare over with.

I hate it when YouTubers have intros that are like 30 seconds long. Just a little 5 to 10 second intro is fine, but they do not need to be like TV show intros.

They feel the need to make them as big and elaborate as they can, and they always have some crazy special effects - and the video itself hasn't even started yet!

And most of the time, they have to have obnoxious, blaring dubstep or trap music that melts your ears. Sometimes they do that in their outros, too, which scares the crap outta you when you have your headphones on and your volume turned up.

So yeah, they're basically the YouTube equivalent of those flashy opening/closing logos with the loud Moog fanfares from the 70's and 80's. I just wanna watch your dang video, not your stupid overdone intro.

^^^^^^
Glad to see I'm not the only one who hates it.

It kind of reminds me of those Muppet Thought of the Week videos where Uncle Deadly's intros and outros take up more of the video than the actual thought.

 

[D'Snowth]

I remember a friend of mine used to open each of her AMVs with like a 21-second intro.

I can agree, I don't mind intros or such, but they don't need to be too long. Same with actual TV shows as well: I know I rant about how TV shows today don't have theme songs or opening credits because networks fear it'll cause viewers to "change the channel," but I mean like most Krofft shows had opening themes that were over two minutes long . . . each and every episode . . . talk about Expository Themes.
