>Why? If it was so I could change their mind, what difference would it make?
I find that trying to understand others helps me with understanding myself. Also, keeps your world from becoming too small.
>self-delusion is something I am incapable of. not as a principle, I just literally can't into it.
Pure negativity is self-delusion in its own right. I'm just saying, find a balance with your emotions.

You sound angry man, if things keep going your going to end up with a sad life. It's not too late to turn around though.

By looking at a person and trying to understand why they do the things they do.
Whenever you start thinking negative thoughts, try to think of some positive things instead.
Quit being a whinny bitch.

Nothing really. He said himself he just added in whatever he thought sounded cool.
Like all the religious symbolism for example, is totally meaningless.

Like that other anon said, its really not that profound, but its still awesome :D

>sound bringing a new layer of reality to this most surrealistic of events.

A girl with yellow eyes fell from the sky. Or at least that is how it would seem to an outside party, who – from the derivation of the event – hadn’t been paying attention. To such a party, who, perhaps hadn’t noticed until hearing the screams of the young girl, and thus only began to witness the event when it was at the medium of its drama, it would seem as if she certainly had fallen right from heaven itself.

This secondary outside party looking in (as it were) is purely hypothetical, as there was no one to witness this tragic event - if not for the golden eyed girl herself. Let’s say this hypothetical second party had (indeed) caught the event at its origin. What would such a party have seen? Let’s say this party was about whatever business then causally looked to the sky, as if to peer through to the heavens above and all its glory. Such a person would see a flash of green and gold, a swirl in the air that lingered for only the briefest of moments. A trick of the eyes, no doubt, but then this trick would turn to reality, as the girl would appear and her screaming would begin; sound bringing a new layer of reality to this most unreal event.

The girl, with eyes like shooting stars, plummeted, in a manner void of any semblance of grace.

I haven't fully worked out the details yet. BUT
She somehow lands safely, then raises her hand to the sun and smiles, thinking how beautiful this new world is. Or something like that.

Then, stuff happens

>Is amazing.
Ok, ill bight
You better not be lying to me, op

What about
"Where are you?" Asked john
"At work." Joe replied
"Oh, want to catch a movie after?"
"Sure, im off at three."

Using said for both of those wouldnt sound right to me.

Rule 7 also makes no sence to me. What if your character is a ship boat captain, shouldnt you make him talk like a pirate?
Or a character from a foreighn county, shouldnt you write his accent into the dialog?

>>4732376
Cant right now.
Doesnt it get redundant using said over and over again though? Whats the logic behind doing this?

The only rules i agree with are 2, 5, and 6
And maybe 4

Fuck rule 3

Bitch, please
You know i love u

I don't think anyone actually thinks that way. Maybe a few really stupid ones, but arguing with an idiot is like admitting you are on equal ground with them.

Not a good simile

And im out 10-24 days, then home 2-3

>>4662023
You are only allowed to drive 11 hours a day. I dont do that every day but more driving means more money so i try to max my clock out when i can. I do about 60 hours of actual driving a week, give or take.

I gained 30 pounds since i started a year ago. Im officially over weight for the first time in my life! Lol thats partly because i eat at all you can eat buffetts every other night though.

Oh and if you do go for it start filling out applications and calling recruiters as soon as you start school. That way 2 months later when your done youll already have a job lined up.

>>4661978
Its proubably one of the most stable jobs you can get. I have recruiters from other companies calling me all the time. Its pretty trippy because befor this it was a struggle to land shitty fast food jobs for me.
Those tickets might hurt you but wont kill you. Depends what they are for. If they are both for reckless driving you might be in trouble.
Just find a school and talk to them, and do some internet research. The industry is in desperate need of drivers. You still moght be able to get on board with a shitcompany where you wont be making great money but youll still get your foot in the door. Once you got a year of experience the world opens up to you and you can work pretty much anywhere.
