When I was at Disneyland, Winnie the Pooh grabbed my wrists after noticing my attention scars and he told me to poo poo or get off the pot.

I've seen some lovely improv, sure, but I've also seen good stuff, like any form of entertainment. I never see people acting so universally negative about stand ups, or actors, or whatever, so its a little mystifying. anyone can say they do improv, and people say it (like saying "I'm in theater.") as an excuse for their wacky, zany, hilarious behavior. because, see, their socially unacceptable behavior is intentional, which means they are cool and good and funny. obvs not every improv person does this

#notallimprov My biggest problems with improv people, and I live in Chicago, so there are a LOT of them, is that they want to play every public interaction as a "scene" and then get mopey when you just want to drink your coffee and have a normal conversation. It's just really tiring to be around someone who needs constant attention. See also: theater students. VVV BINGO Marius Pontmercy has a new favorite as of 23:55 on Jan 24, 2016 |

Was there really an epidemic of teenagers cutting themselves last decade or was it just something that got overblown by terrible Lifetime movies and TV news specials

I think a bunch of emo teens were doing it circa 2004 and tumblrs still do it because they are super lame and uncool. If you think about it scratching your wrists with a safety pin or razor for attention has to be just about the dumbest trend mankind has ever come up with.

Didn't 4chan do a hoax couple of years ago with "cutting for Bieber" or whatever and got a bunch of his followers to cut themselves?

Is depression even real or is it just people who have gotten sad and watch too much TV? Hard to say imo

Yes, it is a real and physical condition, not just mental

Some STDH courtesy of The New York Timesquote:“I tutored a kid. This little black kid. He looked up to me a lot. One day he asked me, ‘Mr. Ebbie, is jail a good place to be?’ I said, ‘Why would you ever ask that?’ He said: ‘My daddy’s in jail and he said he gets 3 meals a day. And sometimes my mom can’t make me food and I’m hungry.’ I went home and I cried that night. This is a kindergartner. Teachers told him he was going to jail. I looked at him as a 5-year-old. I didn’t see a criminal. I didn’t see a drug dealer. I didn’t see a rapist. I didn’t see a gangbanger. I saw myself, when I was a little kid 10 years ago.” — Ebbie Banks of Palo Alto, Calif.

EmmyOk posted:Is depression even real or is it just people who have gotten sad and watch too much TV? Hard to say imo Uhm, pretty sure it's because Tumblr told them to. Seriously, though, I'm pretty sure it's a reasonably common issue and the amount of attention given to it made it seem more prevalent. Couple that with the fact that most people have limited understanding about it and it comes off like "wow, wacky kids these days and their cutting and their rock and roll"

CMOA---quote:This troper was usually verbally harassed by these two females..(whores) in school...this troper couldn't bring himself to hit them to shut them up.. since retaliation always made him look bad, since he's 6 foot 4 and they are below 5 foot 6...so what did him and his Nakama do when they ran into them at the movies?? Insult them and make them look immature...It was especially funny since the boys they were with wereour good friends and laughed with us as we tore them a new one...after that the following week at a special school event, we ended up in a brawl with one fo the girl's older brothers and their friends...who do you think won??

She told me the cat just got a little rough when she was playing. Thankfully she hasn't done it since then. It's definitely not a thing restricted to emo teens looking for attention.

Yeah, I went and it mad me angry at all the "deep thoughts". Yeah, there were some comments that said it reeked of "movie insanity", but they were few and far between. I actually wanted to rage-downvote, but IMGUR wanted me to create an account, so it's probably for the best I moved on.
