At that age, it’s either a failure of the parent, or a serous mental illness (serious enough to keep the kid away from other kids). The vast majority of kids at that age, if raised right, are mostly good. And by “raised right”, I mean addressing the issues that make them angry/mean, and breaking that attitude from them.
I've been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So, I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture. I felt like I was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it, the dream was over.

Image reminded me of summers with the kids, which reminded me of this song of a picnic.

Every company makes ppl feel like a cog in a machine. The overspecialization is the exact opposite of what we evolved to be. Humans are supposed to be generalists. We're supposed to dabble in a lot of different things to keep our brains active and not get bored. A person was meant to be more than an engineer working on one specific aspect of one specific product for 30 years straight.
I think that's what makes ppl unhappy. As a kid, you are free to try all sorts of different things. You suck at everything, and everything is new and exciting. You use your imagination and play or RP as whoever you want to be. One day, you want to be a garbage man. The next day, you want to be an astronaut. It's exciting and fun. And then, slowly, but surely, people ruin that excitement and wonder about life. Slowly, you realize society is going to pigeonhole you into one specific thing and rob you of all your joy and imagination and sense of curiosity and wonder because you'll have deadlines to meet, bills and taxes to pay, and just generally become a slave to the very system that was supposed to help you survive.

I know. I've done that. But it doesn't bring happiness. Society is just too damn big. That's another thing about living in the city. You're surrounded by people, but feel alone. I've lived in a small town in the South, and I knew a lot of ppl in my neighborhood. Here in the suburbs of the city, I hardly know anyone in my neighborhood. I know a couple of my neighbors but hardly talk to them or even see them.
That's part of why I like misc. Even tho it's a bunch of phaggots, u get to know and recognize the usual suspects.
