MC Hammer. He has decent moosic and popularized the shuffle. Now, people forgot the music, but the shuffle remains. Stop! You've violated the law!
99% of all music these days that can be considered "real" music (i.e. something made by a "professional" musician) is bad. ... ... ... ... The other 1% is worse.
ZUN ALL of A-One. All of it. Morrigan The rest of WAVE SOME of Coldplay. Admittedly, the older ones. This is just off the top of my head. From one small section of the music industry. Your point is invalid.
This message emanates temporal energies: But Ataraxie is a great band. Albeit a very depressing one, but good none the less. They do make good music. It's just not 'happy' music.
This message emanates temporal energies: No, I insist. You take them. Take these 10 year old pringles.
6 in the morning, and I've been sitting on a bridge for the past hour or two watching the water go by underneath. The world's so pretty at this time of day. Also been thinking about life, and as it stands I've given up. I'm a bit tired of sticking on a happy face just to supress the fact that my life's now void of an irreplaceable factor. The only thing that makes me even bother putting foot to ground in the morning is knowing my mum needs someone for her right now. Other than that, I don't really want the world to carry on, I honestly can't be bothered pushing things to the back of my mind and avoiding reality. That's what ponies have been really, a method of supression, an escape. No escaping now, my life's practically gone. Can't keep up the 'I'm fine' charade for much longer. So yeah, I'm leaving. I can't face up to this anymore. Not just ponies, just talking to people. I don't want to hear anything or know anything, I just want to get my life back, but that's not happening. It's gone, I'm done as a human. Bit peeved at that, as I had a lot of plans for the future, but hey, life gon' life. All I know is staying here and joking about when really I'm doing nothing short of lying to myself and you about being okay is pretty counterproductive. Not sure what would count as productive, but this definitely isn't it. I'll still force myself to lurk the stream at random, as so not to abandon my moderating duties, but with all due respect this place is killing me. Everytime I switch my computer on, I know that what I'm doing is running away from how I'm really doing. Well, it's caught up, and I'm done. Finished. It's not just here, even in real life I've been laughing and joking, just plastering over what's happened. Thing is, the more you pile over a hole, it only means it comes crashing down. That's what sitting on a bridge in the middle of nowhere at 6 in the morning is, me crashing down. To be honest, this was a little elaborate, considering all I had to say was 'adios'. But hey, best I explain as well, I guess. I'm hoping I'll come back, but frankly I don't know what's going to happen to me. Just remember, be good in the stream, because I'm still watching you! If I was going to ditch the staff of Everypony, I wouldn't do it like this, I've got too much respect for the likes of Derpy, as I said in the community praise thread. So yeah, this isn't a resignation, it's just an explanation as to why I can't deal with socialising with anyone anymore, real life or online. I've given up on life frankly, but let me tell you that you should never do this. Appreciate every day, live life as much as you can. Don't ever hold back or limit your hopes and dreams, and don't let laziness get the better of you. Don't act tough and go about life as if it's horrible and you're too emotionally hardened and negative to enjoy yourself, because frankly that makes you a living breathing waste of space. I would know, because that's what I am. I literally can not go on, I don't have the energy and I know that's wrong. The one thing I can do now really is serve as a reminder that this one life we all have is so fragile and precious, that it must be respected above absolutely anything and everything. Go out there and enjoy yourself, appreciate what you've got, and be honest with yourself. No excuses. Trust me, it's best to live life like that because someone told you to, than realising that they were right by learning it the hard way. Hope you understand. I'd better wrap this up now, it's getting cold out here, and a bridge over a river isn't the best place to talk about giving up on life. Also, phone is low on battery. It's really annoying to type with a blinking red light next to the screen. Going to eat a load of biscuits and go to sleep when I get back, then go about life, somehow. I really do hope this isn't my final post.
Well, I'm not stopping you, Lu, nor should anyone else here or IRL stop you. Experience the world like you want to experience it.
Regardless of the backlash, I'm saying this. You say that you give up and no longer feel like fighting. Then you say others shouldn't do it. Lead by example, not by telling. I don't want to see you give up and sulk off. You are NOT a waste of space. I can't pretend to know what your going through, but I can't stand to see you give up. If you could type that post up, you can fight. You gave many reasons why you should fight. So why are you any different, You can still appreciate every day. You typed this up by first stating it was a beautiful sight. You say life should be respected above all else, then why give up. You aren't respecting life that way. You don't have to be a reminder, be a example of a way to stay strong even in the face of all odds. You want me to appreciate what I have. Then I want you to do the same. Lupr, I hate to see you go, I know that deep down you want to fight. There is a light that wants to shine through the darkness, I just want you to add fuel to that light. If you want me to follow the above advice, I want you to follow it first. If you can't do it, then don't expect me to.
If that's what you wish for, you'll get it. I tried, at least. It seems that I could do nothing to stop the inevitable, seemingly. Giving up is the last thing you want to do in life. The question isn't "What do I have to live for?" It's rather "I just don't know my purpose." Finding yourself is hard, admittedly. "The only time a lawyer can cry... is when it's all over." And it's all over when you give up. Not when you lose, but when you give up. It's just life, and life sucks nine times out of ten. But when the good happens, it happens with a vengeance. While my words may not be enough, a man can dream, can't he? Farewell Lup. I'll miss ya. Adios... Mi Amigo.
This message emanates temporal energies: Dammit. I hate goodbyes. No matter how brief. No matter how much I actually knew the person. A parting wisdom, I first heard from my Sensei: Never lose sight of what matters. For once you do, you've nothing left to hold on to. Forgive me, but I can't say goodbye.
Not the best message to see in the morning. Lup, do what you think is right but the last thing you should do is give up. You have to fight tooth and nail to get any happiness or meaning out of life but I say it's worth it. There are times when life just doesn't notice you and times when it beats you into the ground with a giant hammer, and that's when we feel our lowest. However, it doesn't have to be that way, we just have to find out how to pick ourselves up, no matter how long it takes or how much it hurts. You have friends here Lup, and I know you have an amazing friend in real life. Count on them and yourself to fight through. That's all we really can do. Hopefully that mangled mess was comprehensible. Be seeing ya Lup, don't worry about that pic, I don't want you feeling guilty. Much love.
Sad to see you go, it is. Sad to see you fall. Sad to see you know the truth, Yet give up on it all. I know about depression, and have dealt with it in others, and sadly, in myself, believe it or not. However, no matter what the issue, there is only one thing to do. One of the wisest people I know was my grade 6 biology teacher. I did not know this then, but this was also my first encounter with existentialism. Once, I asked him what the purpose of life is. He answered simply. There is none. Only later did I understand that this was both true and untrue. Life has no purpose. This is a fact of life. However, Life can be given purpose, just as a thought, a rock, or anything can. Even though you will most likely not read this, if you do, remember. Life is what you make of it, and while nothing is simple, when you get past that mountain blocking your way, you have a whole word of possibility before you. So try making something, try learning, try whatever it takes, but don't let yourself dawdle or get into long periods of self-reflection. Even if it seems you are avoiding the issue, remember, you are not. You are making the world better, you are contributing to the infinite cycle of change. You are human, and that's what matters, not whether or not you think yourself to be one. But, if you can't muster within yourself the energy to advance, rest. You don't seem like the kind of person that would get stuck in a cycle of self-pity. 'till we next meet, Lupr.
