I've been snarkier than usual and posting like a jerk in some instances.
It's been a tough 4 months - My sister passed at the end of December, and I'm burying my Dad next week. I'm a little pissed off at the world in general. I'm sorry if I've been more of an ass than usual to anybody. |

The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised.

No apology necessary for me.
A thick skin is useful in getting jostled around in GD. Sorry to hear you've been through a rough patch. Things will get better. |

Condolences to you and your family. |

I get it.
Similar reasons over here. Plus, I'm prejudice against stupid people. That's not a good trait for GD. Good luck. |
|
|
I thought the whole point of GD was being an ass to everyone?
That’s what we do here bruh. If anything, this post is too nice for these parts. Edit in something about Ukraine/Russia or Trump. |
|

I clicked on this thread expecting the OP to say something like "Lick my baalls!"
Isn't that what counts for a polite departure from many discussions? Attached File |

Hey man, life happens. Sometimes it really, REALLY sucks. But you get through it and try to make things better. You manned up and apologized (even though your probably didn't need to). So good on you. I hope life starts giving you some positive things.

As one of GD most hated sorry for your troubles, your snark is appreciated.

Ehhhhhhhh, the only way to stand out in GD is to be not-snarky.
Sorry for your troubles and hope things start looking up for you though. |

"Here, I made a song for you" could cover a wide swath of situations from sympathy to "Well, bless your heart". |

I'm sorry if I've been more of an ass than usual to anybody. View Quote No worries at all, prayers for you and family man. My wife and I had to spend 4 years living in the city up until recently, which was bad enough in itself what with crime, shit getting stolen off our porch, aggressive homeless and general misery. And in that time my wife's sister passed, a year later her best friend died unexpectedly, my mother died, and to top it off my best lil buddy of a cat died in my arms after 15 years. And lawd knows, i've been a fuckin dick the whole time. My apologies as well to the folks here. I hope life gets better for you, it did for us, so much weight has been lifted from my shoulders, and I actually feel like being kind to folks and want to make friends once again. I pray this happens for you to whoever might be listening up there. |

Sorry to hear that man. As someone who has lost a lot of family, I encourage you to talk with someone about it. Speaking words about it out loud has a real effect of moving you through the grieving process. That, and time. It doesn’t make anything go away, but it changes it.
Also, if you saw them change through their illness, I can say that over time your memory of them will become the image of them you knew throughout their life, and not the image of them ill at the end of their life. Hang in there. |

I have no idea what you may have posted, but my condolences. Lost my mom a couple years ago, no idea how I'd handle it if my dad or one of sisters died too. I usually avoid people when I'm in a bad mood. I wear that shit on my face and I don't want people to think Im upset with them when I'm not.
But yeah OP, you can lean on us. Seems like pretty much everyone here has been through some shit. We understand. |
