#1059 The person who is commenting on all these confessions with such incredulity that *gasp* people's views differ from her own seriously needs to learn how to deal with life instead of saying "I can't even" to everything she finds disagreeable.
#1058 I feel like because I'm so antisocial and socially awkward, I'm wasting my time at MIT not talking to professors or staff, not getting UROPs or participating in anything, I just feel like I'm overall a waste of space here and perhaps someone else could have gotten accepted instead of me and actually taken advantage of everything MIT has to offer.
#1057 I find it significantly easier to make friends online than it is to make friends in person. As someone who actually cannot talk to people unless someone else talks to me first (and even then, it's difficult for me to carry on conversations), getting to someone anonymously through some text on a screen feels like a great way to start until we get closer and actually become friends. But because I have so many online friends, I feel complacent knowing I have people to talk to, but I also feel incredibly lonely because I don't really have any friends here. It's really hard to integrate into friend groups when everyone is already happy with their friends and don't need another awkward late addition to their group. And even then, I still feel like an outsider when I try. Somedays when I'm lying alone in my room talking to online friends, I really just wish I had someone nearby, a physical shoulder to cry on, or even being silent and just knowing that someone here knows I exist would be appreciated. I'm afraid I could die alone in my room someday and no one would know, and no one would care.
#1056 Who here has read The Silmarillion?
#1055 I've never met a nice person from west campus. Everyone is so much more real at EC, I'd never even consider changing dorms.
#1054 Looking up jobs makes me feel incompetent and useless.
Sometimes I wish I was never born... Not everyone has the energy for life.
I probably shouldn't have kids... Giving someone (especially your kids) the curse of life is cruel.
#1053 What the fuck did you just fucking say about atheism, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class at MIT, and I've been involved in numerous scientific breakthroughs, and I have over 300 confirmed publications. I am trained in physics and I'm the top astronomer in the entire US scientific community. You are nothing to me but just another liberal arts major. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of professors across the USA and your GPA is being reduced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can debate you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my mind. Not only am I extensively trained in particle physics, but I have access to the entire arsenal of JSTOR and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.
