The Whining and Bitching Thread

Its one of the rules of life... if you close your browser when someone walks into the room, you're watching porn. Just like if you make a forum post claiming to have a girlfriend, she isn't real until you post a picture of her. Soon these you will learn , young padawan.

And you could, you know, get your own computer...

I don't have enough money, plus my parents wouldn't let me. But I might if the boarding school I might be going to in Costa Rica requires one.

[FenriR]

Yeah, I'm a bit ADHD too. It sucks, but I just go with it.

Sometimes I wish I was normal even if it means not being (not to brag) more intelligent than some others. Its annoying reading a book and spacing out and having read 5 paragraphs but not getting the information out of it and having to re-read it. I know I could take pills but when I did I would feel constantly sick and I had trouble sleeping, and when I would take sleeping pills then I would feel tired the next day.

But whatever, I'm only doing bad in a couple of classes. My biggest issue is motivation.

[FenriR]

Yeah, same. I'd rather do creative writing, but instead I'm analyzing Shakespeare. As if that hasn't been done before.

[Aapep]

I don't see what is so great about shakespeare. Wow, he influenced some shitty movies. I personally think H.P. Lovecraft was a much better writer than him.

[FenriR]

Really? I guess in whatever year you're in you would be restricted. Sadly, you can't really write about whatever you want until uni, unless you take creative writing for A-levels or whatever is the equivalent in the US of A. Not many places offered it, though, or I'd have gone for it like a flash...

...instead, I'm looking at Othello, Antony and Cleopatra, the Tempest, and Romeo and Juliet. At the same time. Now, I love the plays, and I think Mr. Shakespeare was a genius, but, FUCK, there's only so much my sanity can take.

He didn't just influence a few movies. He was a revolutionary in his time, one of the first to portray a black guy as anything other than an animalistic idiot. If you see one of his plays performed by a talented cast of actors... you'll understand why English courses worldwide love to suck his dick.
Metaphorically.

[Aapep]

I think I would enjoy his stuff if I saw it instead of read it. Its pretty hard to enjoy a play from reading the script.

[FenriR]

Exactly. They're boring to read, but damn, they're good live.

[Aapep]

Yeah, I guess, but I generally don't like plays. Because you can't redo a scene to make it perfect, and also I find that movie actors are better. I saw a production of Chicago when I was in New York and it was pretty bad compared to the movie. None of the actors were in character.

I hate my age, I can't get a fucking job anywhere. I applied for a job at a movie theater which I probably won't get even though I'll be 15 in two months and old enough. Or at least I think I will be, the guys at the theater said I had to be 15 but they didn't sound sure and it didn't say how old I needed to be on the site.

If you see something by the Royal Shakespeare Company you'd change your mind. They're all incredibly talented, the likes of Ian McKellen and Judi Dench belong to it.
