Last night I was given an object lesson in the fact that my actions mean absolutely nothing, because no matter what I will never be good enough.
I do most of the chores in my house. Both my parents work, and my father is pretty much never here. Last night, my father has the nerve to give me a lecture on how I don't contribute to the household, and that I can either learn to contribute or get out.
Nevermind that I'm the only person in the house to operate a vacuum, pick up a mop, wipe down the counters, or break out a bottle of Windex in the past three months. Or that I work. Or that I maintain a 4.0 GPA while carrying overload units in college. None of it is enough--I need to do <em class='bbc'>even more</em> in order to be allowed to stay in the house.
You cannot begin to understand the enormity of the insult. I am torn right now between wanting to cry and wanting to beat my father into a bloody pulp. How the heck would he know what I do? <em class='bbc'>He's never here!</em>

I would never bang around the claw machine like that. There's a refined art to getting toys out of one of those machines, and banging around the machine is like smacking around your mother--you don't do it, no matter how much you'd like to.There's several good machines near where I live--the claw machine in Wal-Mart, the one in Denny's, and one at each of the two Del Taco's nearby. Just as a general rule, never try to get anything out of the claw machine at the mall--they pack those things tighter than a preteen girl's jeans. :eyes:

Zorlack, that comment better damn well be in reference to the fight with my father, because if you're telling me to get out of the region after working my ass off for the past two weeks, I'm going to have a nuclear meltdown, and you're gonna be at ground zero. :angry:

I believe Zorlack was talking about the issue that this thread was started for.

<strong class='bbc'>Now im gonna do some of what this thread was meant for...ranting and raving...in my case probably like a lunatic but that does not count for all!!! and to put across some of my most recent angst a series of jokes:</strong>
<em class='bbc'>Why did the man cross the road?
He heard the chicken was a slut.
What's the difference between government bonds and men?
Bonds mature.
What is the difference between men and pigs?
Pigs don't turn into men when they drink. </em>
Men Are Like...
<em class='bbc'>Men are like... place mats. They only show up when there's food
on the table.
Men are like... mascara. They usually run at the first sign of
emotion.
Men are like... bike helmets. Handy in an emergency, but
otherwise they just look silly.
Men are like... government bonds. They take so long to mature.
Men are like... parking spots. All the good ones are taken.
Men are like... copiers. You need them for reproduction, but
that's about it.
Men are like... lava lamps. Fun to look at, but not all that
bright.
Men are like... bank accounts. Without a lot of money, they don't
generate much interest.
Men are like... high heels. They're easy to walk on once you get
the hang of it.
Men are like... miniskirts. If you're not careful, they'll creep
up your legs.</em>
<strong class='bbc'>
Now are you getting the general impression??.....</strong>

I am absolutely, utterly depressed. We found one of our kittens dead this morning. Apparently, she tried playing with one of the bigger neighborhood cats, and the bigger cat crushed her windpipe. And now my dad won't let us bring the only other kitten we have inside at night to keep it from getting killed.
