Where have I been?

i need to play more.

Yes, you should.

And post pics.

i need to play more.

I can pretend to be a fundie,
if it helps keep you around. 

im hardly on the internet anymore... except to pick arguments with scientific noobs...  @ wp as it usually happens to be.

im just too depressed no matter what i do... i have been forcing interactions i don't even want... people i find revolting and kind, a like... i just gleen nothing anymore.

thinking of seeing a therapist but dont have the time or money... but i dont think it will help.  i just should not have come here. and i dont think a pill would change that.

i just wish i could give up hope... then at least i'd be getting somewhere.

Sounding like I felt (feel) about
here. I really think I wasted two
years.

Maybe you just need to see about breaking away,
a bit. Would a leave of absence help? It did me
some good - but only briefly.

Don't take me too personal: I have a personal vendetta against professionals (pyschologists, neurologists, etc) who think that they're gods (I don't like to be coerced to think in a certain way to meet their precious standards) and like to call them out on their weaknesses. I had to do tricks for those bums when I was 13 to get my precious diagnosis.

Insecure, I know.

You're just being nice,

Fuck off: you give me a migrane everytime I had to read your cryptic bullshit.

[Calandale]

I like that about you.

Yeah, and you like me for being a "moron" for making a distinction between punctuation and grammar.

Anyway, Catrona, I hope you feel better soon. Depression is shit.

[Calandale]

There IS a distinction though.
One is contained in the other.

Where did I say that it WASN'T contained?

Correcting "is" for "are", for example, isn't punctuation, dumbass. It's grammar.

I would guess. For both of us.

The point that I'm making -- which you failed to realise -- is that many websites deal with punctuation and grammar separately; there's nothing inherently wrong distinguishing a punctuation nazi from a grammar nazi. It's just another way of looking at how writing works.

Distinction!

But, dealing with a part separate from the
whole, AND dealing with the whole, but
excluding the part, seems a sloppy way
of handling things.

Like having a history site, which has
a section on world history, and one
on English history.

That's a stupid analogy if I ever saw one.

In writing, I personally like to make a distinction. Okay? It makes things easier for me. I don't care if it doesn't meet the standards of the consensus.

Seemed quite apt to me.
If anything, it actually was
more sensible than what we're
discussing.

But, I like hierarchies.
