October 28th, 2009

Who Am I?

Just completed two episodes of House. One from third season and the one I missed last week on Hulu. Im quite glad Fox decided to give House a week hiatus just so we could all catch up because of the Yankees vs Angels game.

Im in a pensive/contemplative mood and epiphanized that I really don't know if I am who people and I think I am. Quite perplexing to say the least. On one hand, Im the Ale8 swigging nerd who loves technology and champions whomever I tend to be working for. Except...Mentally, Im not. I hide a lot of things that not a lot of people see. For the existing present, Im extremely anti-social, which this mood will pass in due time, but inside my consciousness, Im frightened, lonely, recessed, and socially awkward, which fuels the fire for my current impetic mood. I guess deep down, there is some solace to being alone but knowing that only I can really count on myself to come through for me on anything is quite befuddling to my conscious. That when I give to someone something so precious as my trust, time, and companionship or even so lacklusterly materialistic as my money or an item of meager merchandisal triviality, I give it wholeheartedly. So far I have never seen as much as a hint of return on my investments. Now Im scripting this with almost complete objectivity, and I quote the almost as every single word in any given publication en masse produced or not has bias, after a heavy dose of sleep deprivation. Now I would love to scream of my plight from the rooftops, however societal curriculi force suppression of true freedom of speech, and the knowledge of my own blatant futility would ravage the frustrations and rile up obstinant mental bricks that would imprint themselves on my forehead from repeated contact. I just don't get it. Humanity confounds me. My mediocre attempts to actually induce friendship leaves behind the vestiges of mere tolerance, not a true liking. And the self realization of this tolerance fuels again another inferno of social mental destruction. I have yet to decide on my next course of action, as there is no real remedy to my predicament. My external facades are holding steady after two decades of constant attack. Yet the mental morale is definitely corroding itself to shambles.

tl;dr Spam has layers, and is seriously questioning existence and the role of internal perception versus external stimulaic personae.

You use a lot of big words.
I'm awed.

It's too early in the morning for me to understand all the big words, but having spent time with you in person, over IM/Skype and on the site...I still you and consider you a great friend.

Angst; that misbegotten mistress. Ugly as sin but such a sweet seductress. It's not her touch that soothes us, I think it's just that we look better to ourselves when we're in her company. Sort of like a plain girl who hangs out with a homely friend in order to ensure she is the pretty one.

Hey, you'll get through it man, don't worry about it. You'll always have friends on RvB and you WILL eventually make irl friends too. Just keep your head up and look towards the future. All bad things pass in time.

I've been there too, just about a year ago. I had just moved, I had no friends, and I was extremely shy. But I kept trying to find people who shared similar interests as me and I made it through. And you can to.

Good luck man. I hope things go awesome for you in the future and you break out of this funk.

You know what, I think you are a cool guy, who is pretty damn fun to be around. Who maybe needs to relax a bit.

I'm there with you. Anti-social. I play an MMO and (you can look to Ham to verify this) I don't like talking to people. In 4 years I have probably made 3 friends on there. And that's 1 more than I have made IRL since moving to MN 6 years ago. When Ham and I meet someone new, I barely say 5 words to the person & let him do all the talking. Not because I am trying to be rude or anything, but most times, because I am studying them for social cues to tell me what would be appropriate in the conversation. I guess I could also be socially akward as well, though I'm not sure since I never really thought about it. I cannot be in big crowds-it causes anxiety.

In short, I understand your pain.
