GAF, I really respect you guys. Whopped by Molly and desperately need some advice.

That first post and those snippets. I can't. I'm dieing right now, but I promise to read all of that and respond with something intelligent... as soon as I stop laughing.

Okay I read it. You sound like I do with half a bottle of rum in me, except less real crying and more text crying. You can't force someone off of drug abuse. Nothing works. I have friends who smoke jars of pot everyday with no intention to ever stop leeching off of their parents but then continuity give life advice to other people, cousins who refuse to stop smoking pot for even short amount of times to get new better jobs, and another cousin who continued to do meth even when pregnant. Life isn't fair is just is.
 
I actually read most of that. It all made little to no sense, as you'd expect. None of what you wrote in that text conversation is deep or profound, OP, it's just a drug-fueled wall of rambling nonsense.

But yeah, OP, you need to stop doing drugs (saying you've "sworn off all drugs" and then doing them anyway is useless), talk to a professional, etc.
 
Could someone give me a Cliffs Notes of the OP?

I scrolled with my thumb like three times and was still seeing reams of banal text messages, but this thread seems very popular so I'm curious.

What's the gist?
 
Wow, clearly I missed out on something special.

I was pretty lost at the beginning and only managed to make it halfway through the wall of doom. That being said, OP, I think you need to get some professional help. Go better yourself.

Also, keep your phone better charged yo.
 
I have to be at work in less than an hour and I still haven't slept or eaten. My vision is all blurred because my contacts have dried up, and I swear this thing is coming back with a vengeance.
But I can't tell if I'm trying to excuse myself out of work because I need it, or because I want to. Should I call out?
I can never decide for myself because I'm always playing devil's advocate with everything, but I'm heavily leaning towards calling out..
Fuck it. I need sleep. I can't work a nine-hour shift.

Oh, and, I'm hearing the chorus, by the way.

Hell, you're doing exactly what you did to her right now, to us. "Omg halp, here's an awkward baring of my soul to you over a giant wall of text. Why are you repulsed? WTF YOU DON'T GET ME". Look into that behavior, seriously.
I just meant, you didn't know (get) our dynamic, our history. So I filled you in.
We can talk to each other like that, because we feel comfortable spilling our guts whenever we need to. We always respond to each other eventually. It's all very transparent, balanced, and beneficial to the both of us. Probably the only person I talk to who doesn't play mind games, really.

Nice bait and switch, OP. Desperate for people to look at your Art, were you?

I feel emotionally vampired just reading your drivel and I'm actually pretty damn angry now. Have known so many men like you. You are not a beat poet or a renaissance man. You need some discipline and to actually learn your craft, because your writing is just the vapid verbal diarrhoea of someone who thinks that every sentence you write has the weight and import of Something Important.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you don't actually do drugs that much, but when you do its terribly exciting and you post here. I don't think you need help. I think you need a kick up the backside.
I think what you said is true of everyone, to different extents. But I'd rather people see the art I put on page four than anything I put in the OP, but then, that's not as immediately important. I need to fix my head first.
And tell me, why did you capitalize Art and Something Important?

Jesus Christ OP could you be any more pretentious. saying that drugs are giving you deep insight into the world and providing you with an epiphany. The world and life is simple. People and politics make it complicated, but at its core everything no where near as deep as you make out. please get off the drugs and get help!
I never said that. I admitted that all the coincidences were just that.
All the other thoughts have been with me for years. And those are simple. They're just not pretty.
 
How horrifying to hear that your dumb, shallow friends are dragging you down from achieving your full potential. I'm sure they're the real reason you're not a world-famous philosopher right now.

We should give the guy a break -- we've been calling his friends losers who are detrimental to his well-being.

Either way it's good to see OP mellowed out a bit. But really, OP. Seek help. If you're not going to work, as soon as you wake up, start shopping around. Maybe look into rehab facilities. Just take that first step.

Edit:
Oh, and save some money to buy Katherine a nice present. She's been a saint from what we've seen. I may be biased though, as I have an ex named Katherine, and it happens to be my favorite name.

If he wants to dump his personal problems onto us while claiming to respect this forum, I think it's perfectly fine to criticise him. He's openly invited criticism, as well.

His friends may be detrimental to him, but only because he's so dependent on them and not because they're drug-users. I agree with the advice that he should find new peers, but that implicitly says that his current friends are the issue, when the issue lies in his choices. Blaming them for his current state is shifting the responsibility away from himself.

Anyway, I refuse to indulge the OP in his self-centred cries for attention any longer. I cannot respect someone who is aware of his own selfishness but rationalises it away by saying, "everyone else is selfish, too!" instead of correcting it.
 
Don't do ecstasy bro, it's not good for your mind or body. OP if you're feeling lost in life I recommend cutting off bad influences in your social world, and becoming an apprentice for a trade like an electrician or plumber. Make a good living, work on your art on the side.

THE TORN PACKET

Tomasooie has a friend called James. He overhears James lecturing someone about the evils of addiction after swearing off drugs. Tomasooie and James are both high on MDMA. Tomasooie sees hypocrisy in James, symbolised by the purchase of cigarettes. Tomasooie destroys the pack of cigarettes dramatically. James gets angry. Tomasooie needs validation so obsessively texts his friend Katherine about the incident.

ASKING FOR HELP

Katherine gives Tomasooie some moral support. Katherine finds the science building. Tomasooie reflects on his relationship with James and gets depressed. Tomasooie thinks everyone is similarly broken. Katherine suggest therapy and describes her positive exerpience with it. Tomasooie resents the idea of therapy and dismisses Katherine's experience. Katherine asks Tomasooie to help with her assignments. Tomasooie takes umbrage at her request in light of his pain.

BEING UNIQUE

Katherine tells Tomasooie to STFU and sleep. Tomasooie explains how society is killing itself with selfish lies and rational thought. Tomasooie feels sad about this. Katherine suggests therapy again. Tomasooie is dubious anyone will understand his insight. Tomasooie takes comfort in art. Tomasooie considers his text conversation with Katherine to be art. Tomasooie describes all of this to GAF. GAF tells him to keep his phone battery charged and get therapy.
 
You might be the last person on earth I'd ever give my phone number to. How many times a day do you bother Katherine?

None of that was "real talk" like you hashtagged in your sound cloud.

Here is some real talk: When you come to the conclusion that it's stupid to post pseudo-introspective drug-addled rambling on soundcloud to pretend-witness for your deep existentialist struggle with the world on a videogame forum, that's when your life gets better. Try meditating in private. It works. Helping the less fortunate will give you more perspective than bothering Katherine when you are on drugs and think you're Nietzche.

Quoting that Nas lyrics about sleep being the cousin of death, and then elaborating on how spiritual and epiphanic it/he was made my dick cringe. Help the less fortunate if you really think you're a contemplative of the human condition.

Also: Stop doing drugs, as it makes you shitty, needy, and gives you a false sense that your thoughts are novel and profound.
 
I couldn't even read all the texts without scoffing, so I'm gonna skip the audio and just say: man the fuck up, it's not the drugs, it's you and your crazy friend.
 
You come off as so needy and an all-around terrible person in that exchange with Kat. Is this how you normally interact with others? It wasn't my intent to put you down but I found myself getting angrier and angrier the more I read.
 
The one time I was around someone on ecstacy, the dude just acted really irritated for a while, drank half a bottle of rum, threw up in a pizza box, then fell asleep on a couch.

This... This is not that.

Seriously did you not pay attention to those Saturday morning cartoons?

Stay in school, don't do drugs.

It's pretty easy.

Best post ever!

I think what you said is true of everyone, to different extents. But I'd rather people see the art I put on page four than anything I put in the OP, but then, that's not as immediately important. I need to fix my head first.
And tell me, why did you capitalize Art and Something Important

Of course you'd rather people see the art. This whole thread was your way of saying 'hey look at me! I took drugs! And I'm an artist and really clever and sensitive!'. You're not interested in support, you just want someone to like your writing and your pictures.

I capitalised them for Emphasis. It's a Victorianism. I Like It.
 
As a psychology student, I'm pretty sure I know more about what's going on in your head than you do and I'd offer advice but, "Ugh." You wouldn't listen because you think you're a genius, and unique, and oh so special if only everyone else would see it.

But you're not.

OMG thank you!

I was getting real tired of reading the long winded texting.

OP, you should take a long hiatus from drugs. You're a mess on them.
 
How horrifying to hear that your dumb, shallow friends are dragging you down from achieving your full potential. I'm sure they're the real reason you're not a world-famous philosopher right now.
I guess I'm dumb and shallow, too. I even put "friends" instead of "friend".

If he wants to dump his personal problems onto us while claiming to respect this forum, I think it's perfectly fine to criticise him. He's openly invited criticism, as well.

His friends may be detrimental to him, but only because he's so dependent on them and not because they're drug-users.

No matter what you do, it will always be rooted in selfishness.
But you're right. I'm shifting the blame and insulting the friend I said I love.
It's not a good look. However, the blame doesn't lie solely on me.
Our course of action isn't something that's decided on in a bubble.
It's something that's affected and determined by everything acting on you.
One thing that reading plenty of long GAF threads thoroughly has shown me is that even though people might argue, and even directly clash, they're all correct in some way.
And every single post together paints the complete picture.
Well, you'd need everyone in the world to weigh in to get the COMPLETE picture, but I'm sure you get what I mean.
We don't have it all on our own.
The Isla Vista shooter thread was an especially good read if you're looking to see that.
People always hate on the fact that some on GAF will defend anything, but we need that.
We need all sides. (Even the people hating on the defense forces.)
That's why I said I respect all of you.

I consider all text to be art.
Look at what you just wrote, and how you wrote it.
Can't you see my point of view? Art isn't just the Shakespeares and Van Goghs.
It doesn't have to be a painting or a play. It can be a doodle or a forum post.
There doesn't need to be a deep meaning.

You come off as so needy and an all-around terrible person in that exchange with Kat. Is this how you normally interact with others? It wasn't my intent to put you down but I found myself getting angrier and angrier the more I read.
That was to an extreme. First, Kat and I are both needy with each other.
She does just as bad, or even worse, while sober.
Maybe that's where I got the screencapping conversations thing from.
I've probably read over a thousand screencaps she's sent me of conversations with her friends.
It's fine.

What if it's both.

And what if someone liking either my Writing, or my Drawings, or even any of my bare Ideas is part of the support I need,
because I have almost no one to share it with,
and even the few friends I used to share it with brushed it off and told me I suck at Everything I Do.

Well I know I don't.
And thanks to this thread, I will see a therapist, and I will stop taking drugs.
I'm really thankful for every bit of criticism. I know I have a strange way of thinking (like everyone else).
But there is something in there.

Nothing you've said is particularly original or insightful. Like Featheredkitten said, you think you're a genius. You're not. You asked for support but it's not what you wanted. You want ego massage and I don't think you've done anything to deserve it. Get your head out of your arse and go and read some critical theory. Start off with some Shlovsky (sp).

Ooh I don't know him! Another Russian formalist? I was thinking about the essay where he mentions that anything is art if it provides a jolt and helps make the familiar new.

Edit- come to think of it Duchamp is the same isn't he? I.e. I put my name on it. It's art cause I say it is, suckers.
 
This. Seriously. That said, Psychologists aren't devoid of biochemical or pharmalogical knowledge.

Yeah? Here in Germany it's seperated, Psychiatrists are full MDs, Psychologist are not allowed to prescribe any kind of medication since they're not and thus don't have to learn all the chemistry crap they're forcing on us, either. At least that's what Psychatrists told us, but maybe they just took the opportunity to rib on absent competition. No offense meant to any Psychos out there (that's what our Psych instructors called themselves), in fact, I'm deeply grateful for the score boosting Psych questions they put on our state exam :D

I think that was the first time I did that in this thread.
I did it because I don't always like how the sentences look when they stretch all the way across the computer screen. I knew it'd come off that way, and I knew someone wouldn't like it, but I did it anyway. I'm sorry if it offends you.

And I think everyone equally has something to contribute. I like clashing with people like this. I've just been too afraid to do it most of the time.


You don't understand Art, what you understand is "art".
What separates them? Everything starts as some small, rough, shoddy idea.
People can find just as much inspiration in those sorts of things than in any grander, more complex and finished works.

Sharing any of those screencaps? You said all sides after all...
If you really want me to.
