I STILL Don't Understand People

Throughout my life there's one thing I can never understand: People. Try to be nice and fun, it gets ruin. Try to fight back, I get to be marked as the bad guy instead. Others say they know me, yet I somehow can't know them. It always feels like I'm their main target to pick on. I do the best I can, yet rarely get any help or support, and usually get ganged up on. Rarely get any compliments and tips/advice too. It's almost as if people want me to be just a failure in life and everything around it.

At times it feels like I'm the only sane person out of a few. They have their fun and I will respect that as long as they respect my fun. Never works out for me, oh no. Starting to question some of the friends I have right now... always getting used for entertainment that causes me to get frustrated in the end. They know it, they do it, they get it. Always, one way or another, they always get their laugh of it, and with me wanting to cut their throats with a rusty knife.

...Part of me just wants to go on a killing spree in many locations for certain people... at least they won't be able to bother me anymore...

Stereotypical Hardcore Players

When it comes to playing games that allow co-op, multi, and mmo playing options, you tend to run into hardcore gamers. Personal definition is: players who make things intense for others and may ruin the fun of the game for others. They may also have an attitude to constantly put down new/low experience players to the game. May also have a trait of showing off and rubbing in that they're great, or in some cases look better, in the game.

Harassment and Bullying

Just recently I was getting harassed and bullied by two players on a TF2 server I normally go to. (It has god mode on maps that don't have an objective, i.e. "dm", or death match, maps. Get god mode when you spawn, lose it when you attack or alt attack; shouldn't taunt kill in god mode either.)

It all started on the map mlp_hearths_warming_cabinv2. A blue heavy was waiting outside of red spawn, on top of a fire place, spinning his mini-gun, awaiting anyone to leave though that doorway to kill them. (There is another doorway where players can exit and enter, but that's not the point). Basically spawn camping, which is not allowed on certain type of maps. I would just air blast the heavy off, causing him to be forced down to a table (part of the map, also where the another doorway leads to) and just repeat. He would constantly say "white knight", whatever that was suppose to mean, when I air blasted him off from our spawn. The blue heavy is fully aware of the rules, but kept on doing it anyway.

Bamboozlers: Panda Carrier

This was the hardest wooden puzzle I have ever done in my life. The Bamboozlers range: Panda Carrier (Level 5 difficulty, 8 being top) by Professor Puzzle (the site is down for unknown reason).

I got this for Christmas by my parents, knowing that I like to solve puzzles (except crosswords or anything that requires high knowledge of many things, I'll never be able to solve those). I found it interesting it was made from Bamboo, containing facts about Bamboo.

When my sister's family was over Christmas night for a little gift exchange, I was slowly taking the puzzle apart. Trying to keep in mind how it was assembled in the process (aka reverse engineering). Apparently in the early stages of taking it apart, it basically collapsed on me.

Two-sides of the Same Coin

A long time ago, on a fan-site I went to very often, currently on a slow renovating phase, there was a member that got banned, who was very arrogant and up-tight, and would suck up to mods and admins on the site, while at the same time give others a hard time. The member in this post shall be called Alba, in reference to the character from Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth Quercus Alba (Theme: The Enemy Who Surpasses the Law).

Few years ago, Alba was a kind person, very greeting and welcoming to others. At that time, the fan-site was trying to keep fans of an online game together, during and after the game was still around. He, me, and a few others took part in a little pod casting group, which only lasted under a year.

When the game resurfaced a second time under a new company, there was disappointment in the air on all the fans. It eventually closed down again, because it was a failure. The rebirth of the game was the same as before, however worse than the original. It died in months.

After that, the pod casting died out. This is when things gone sour for everyone.
