Title: I Believe
Post by: Luna on September 13, 2011, 01:10:13 AM
I believe that people are basically decent,
     But then some asshole will fuck with your life,
          Just because he can.
I believe the people are basically bastards,
     But someone will be there when you need him,
          Just because.
I believe life gives everyone what they deserve,
     But sometimes terrible shit happens,
          And nobody understands why.
I believe life is chaos, one random thing after another,
     but sometimes when you lose something precious,
          You find something better.
I believe that believing in anyone just leaves you open to hurt,
I believe that believing in no one is a terribly lonely way to live.

In short, I believe we're pretty much all fucked, no matter what.

I believe Pringles' initial intention was to make tennis balls. But on the day that the rubber was supposed to show up, a big truckload of potatoes arrived. But Pringles was a laid-back company. They said "Fuck it. Cut 'em up!"

I'm learning.  I just need to grow a pair and post some of the stuff I usually trash.

I believe people are basically stupid,
     But this huge fucking lump of neurons has gotta be good for something right? Why'd it evolve?
          Just because it could?
I believe people are basically smart,
     But massively ignorant,
          Just because the lump sure seems lighter when it ain't carrying all that knowledge stuff.

I believe life is ordered, effect after cause, effect after cause,
     But I will do whatever I can to get Eris to shake grubby paws with every local deity, demon, and ghost I can find.
          Just because I can.

Dear Luna,

Never believe that you can't write, nor that you don't have any insights to contribute. Not even if it's yourself that's telling you that.


LMNO
-requests more.

Thanks, LMNO.  There will be more, just gotta get it rolling.  Just need to rewire my brain a bit and rip out the years of "you're not good for anything but..." that were installed by an asshole.

I feel that one, too, Luna.  Fucked up thing is, we have no choice once our eyes are opened but to accept it and rail against it at the same time.

You're on a roll lately, Girl--awesomeness!

It was funnier when Mitch said it.
