harshing out your good friends for making bad decisions.
 
I wanna know, who wins in these situations?

sickbadthing 12-15-2011 08:48 AM

Depends on the person. Some people are very content in being selfish.

NOBODY WINS

Also, if it addict related then don't bother. Sorry.

MyOneAndOnly 12-15-2011 09:24 AM

if you're doing better in life than they are, then you win!

Eulogy 12-15-2011 10:01 AM

depends on the purpose, the person, and the decision. also not every conversation requires a winner.

i can't recall doing this though.

Luke de Spa 12-15-2011 10:28 AM

it depends on all the variables

BUT

some of the variables have relatively little effect so you can disregard those

BUT

it's hard to figure out which ones to disregard. listen to your heart when he's calling for you. listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do. i don't know where you're going and i don't know why, but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye

Wins? It's hardly about that, but I suppose the "winner" is whoever is remains unswayed. But if one remains unswayed regarding stupid decisions and douchey behavior, then there really is no winner. What is going on?

I'm revisiting this and have decided that the person getting harshed out wins purely on an attention-getting basis. But what if they don't WANT attention? Then they are fucking themselves. Ugh.

that sounds like loser talk to me.

MyOneAndOnly 12-15-2011 12:17 PM

why harsh out your friends to begin with?

I don't harsh out my friends

Netphorian Gadabout 12-15-2011 12:26 PM

I'm guessing from the use of the phrase "harshing out" that this is really about someone calling out Dead Frequency about drug use. I have never met anyone who wasn't a druggie use harshing out.

MyOneAndOnly 12-15-2011 12:27 PM

that makes sense.

my friends don't do drugs. they just smoke and drink

Elvis The Fat Years 12-15-2011 12:28 PM

His avatar is an african american gentleman smoking contraband. Of course he's a druggy.

Trotskilicious 12-15-2011 12:45 PM

yeah i'm guessing his friends finally had an intervention about his excessive drug use and alcoholism

he divulged his excessive drinking in a thread i made about my roommates boozing and it was all very :erm: since he seemed not to even have the slightest twinge of self doubt about it

that's a fucking dumb way to look at things

if you're the most stubborn you win? no wonder you're such a dingbat.

huh? that's not a cigar?

MyOneAndOnly 12-15-2011 02:40 PM

what constitutes "excessive" drinking?

reprise85 12-15-2011 03:46 PM

when the little voice in your head is telling you to stop and you reply "fuck you"

teh b0lly!!1 12-15-2011 04:22 PM

is this thread about real talk

Dead Frequency 12-15-2011 08:18 PM

Haha, you fucking guys.

Nah, my friend was dating a girl who manages a Starbucks and does the realty thing. She.dumped him because he wanted to take a year off from work and 'think' about school. Afterwards he hooks up with an ex, who cheated on him, he forgave her, then ultimately dumped him after his brother committed suicide. He's fucking around with no protection and has a pregnancy scare with this same broad. So I'm like 'what the fuck are you doing, man?' He then blathers on about how his life fell apart.

So I'm harshing him out about making dumb decisions, trying to look out, ya know? Now he's all butthurt and trying to take this ridiculous relationship serious. And it just leaves me shaking my head.

Punk rock my ass, dude. That's more like mom rock.

Trotskilicious 12-15-2011 08:20 PM

well when you get cirrhosis don't come crying to me

Elvis The Fat Years 12-15-2011 08:20 PM

You're obviously high and rambling.

Trotskilicious 12-15-2011 08:21 PM

also i have to point out that straight edge is punk rock because there's nothing more punk rock than saying fuck sex and drugs i just want to play rock and roll

Dead Frequency 12-15-2011 08:21 PM

Also I have a solid stance against drugs that suck your soul from you, meth, heroine, party pills and the like. I only smoke, drink and take mushrooms every so often.

Trotskilicious 12-15-2011 08:21 PM

you feel me?

hahahaha god i love it when people construct ridiculous dichotomies to excuse their own habitual drug use

Order 66 12-15-2011 08:27 PM

i have a friend who in the course of a year 1) got a DUI 2) started smoking meth 3) failed DUI probation, got arrested and lost his job for not showing up 4) got some loser chick pregnant

it was like watching a nascar crash. i blew my fuse and he won't talk to me anymore. if i could go back i'd be more calm about it though. i mean its their decision at the end of the day

honestly what the fuck does that even mean

i'd have dumped him too. and he really shouldn't get a girl pregnant. i have had the birth control conversation with a couple female friends a couple times. it's just like

DO YOU WANT A BABY WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU
