why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

you ever say something something Santorum with elbow grease something again, i'm flag banning you.

Someone leaves chick tract "A Love Story" underneath all the windshield wipers at my park and ride every Valentine's.

when i was like 19 an older woman picked only me out of an entire crowded train car to give a chick tract to. she held a bunch of them out in a fan so i just picked one randomly; she got off the train and then ran back on to give me one that i guess she had picked out specifically for me. wish i could remember which one it was cuz that would make a good punchline for this boring story

Lately I've been thinking that "cuccinelli" should become a euphemism for something.

Getting chick tracts for Halloween was the worst and happened quite often when I was a kid

lol, this is a recent one apparently

Of all the fake people who could have said that, why choose Groucho Marx? Even bob would have been less incongruous.

it is helpful to think that way sometimes tbf even though i can't do it. i'm no sure why dr. steve maraboli was redirected to a haunted forest though.

a watermark that reads "watermark", what genius

there is perhaps no quicker way to convince me that you are a dick than by telling me that everything happens for a reason.

i've known people who really need to cling to these sorts of inspirational phrases in order to get through the day. they have always bothered me because they are dishonest but i wonder if the world isn't better because they exist. i say this after arguing with my friend about whether suicide barriers on bridges are worth it if they make the bridges look shitty

There are probably better things they could do than cling to these phrases

Because I think the dishonesty of the phrases lies in how they only ever tell 'half the story', always either 'Put up with it!' or 'Move on out!', but never 'Think about whether it would be better to put up with this, or to move on out, and perhaps come up with a synthesis of the two - that pays close attention to the specifics of your problem'.

yeah but i think of these things as like CBT-lite for people who 1.) aren't very imaginative and 2.) don't have access to real therapy. i'm pretty sure they are popular because they are designed to supplant the poisonous, self-defeating thoughts they picked up in childhood or whatever.

you are right: they are not very helpful because they give false hope and people are only able, i'll bet, to half-believe them anyway. i was just saying that i can't look at these types of things except as symptoms of un-articulated desperation

Absolutely

I think the makers 'n' sharers of these macros fall somewhere on a spectrum between people who get a positive buzz out of them and want to share that (this is not innocent bcz see above, but is not done with bad intentions) and the people who are actual hustlers giving lectures about this stuff/getting thousands of people to sign up to groups using this stuff as bait and then selling the group to an advertising company

there is perhaps no quicker way to convince me that you are a dick than by telling me that everything happens for a reason.

Listen, I'm sorry about your kid. At least the shooter turned the gun on himself, right? Everything happens for a reason. You're welcome.

No can do, already in the KISS Army.

i like to pretend the "everything happens for a reason" people are simply endorsing the principle of sufficient reason.

is that like the lords resistance army

i think that's exactly what they're talking about

thank you max for stumbling onto this https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bro-Im-A-TeenProblem/272473249557362

Oh no

FULL STORY:
Boy: Hey, can I tell you something?
Girl: Yeah, of course.
Boy: I... I love you.
Girl: *sighs*
Boy: What's wrong?
Girl: I can't tell you. I'm sorry.
Boy: Are you sure?
Girl: Why do you love me?
Boy: Because you're the sweetest girl I've ever met, you can make me laugh, and you're beautiful both inside and out.
Girl: I... Thank you. I just wish you could know... But I can't. I'm sorry.
Boy: It's okay, you can tell me when you're ready.
Girl: I have to go.
Boy: See you later beautiful.
*Later that night the boy gets a call from one of his friends*
Friend: Did you hear?
Boy: What are you talking about?
*Friend explains that the girl took pills earlier that night, and she was in a coma in the hospital. The boy realises this meant she'd taken the pills before he'd talked to her*
Boy: Oh my god... I should've told her sooner.
Friend: What are you talking about?
Boy: It doesn't matter, I have to go.
*The boy drives to the hospital to go see the girl. At first they tell him he probably shouldn't go in, but he says he needs to, and it'll only be a few minutes*
Boy: Why didn't I tell you sooner...
Boy: I know you'll wake up. You're stronger than anyone thinks. They say people in comas can hear things... So I'll talk to you until you wake up.
Boy: I don't have much time now though. Remember I love you.
*The next day the boy goes and talks to her. He tells her everything that happened during the day and again, tells her he loves her and she's the most amazing girl in the world. He continues this for three weeks until one day he shows up to find something unexpected*
Boy: Hey beautiful. *squeezes her hand*
Girl *squeezes hand back*
Boy: *stares with an astonished look while a nurse walks in*
Nurse: What's wrong?
Boy: She squeezed my hand.
Nurse: Are you sure?
Boy: I'm positive!
Nurse: I think it's time you go home. We'll call you if she's awake, I promise.
*Boy reluctantly goes home. He goes back to the hospital for a few days after that, but they keep telling him he can't see the girl. Finally, he gets a call from the nurse at the hospital he'd spoken to before*
Nurse: Technically she's not allowed visitors besides her family yet, but her parents say it's alright if you come.
Boy: *drives right away to the hospital to see the girl*
Nurse: *leads him to the room and leaves him sitting next to her bed*
Girl: *eyes flutter open*
Boy: Beautiful as always.
Girl: I remember you. I can't remember everything, but I remember you.
Boy: I spoke to you every day.
Girl: I heard you. I wanted to respond but I couldn't.
Boy: I knew you'd wake up.
Girl: I can hardly even walk. And look at these needles stuck in my arm. They hurt. *motions to IV*
Boy: I wish I could take away the pain, but you'll have them off soon enough. They're helping you. And you'll be up and moving soon enough. *smiles*
Girl: There was something I really wanted to say, every day before you left.
Boy: What is it?
Girl: I love you too.

*fart*

*eyes flutter open*

Really wish Watterson would've quit Calvin & Hobbes back in the 90s when it was still good, instead of letting it debilitate into illustrated self-help quotes and Calvin pissing on company logos.
