    And that's how Atomika grew up to become a nurse.

    I guess growing up around constant awful criticism gave you the skills to

    1) handle people at their worst moments in the ER with aplomb
    2) be critical as fuck of movies

    Idk my younger days kind of sucked

    I was closeted and miserable, my parents had a lot of problems, both of my brothers went crazy, one of them was a drug addict

    I guess being a little kid was fun though

    yeah, shit like 1st grade teacher, childhood street, dream job as a child, favorite food as a kid, first concert you ever attended...

    Like, unless your current life is fucking amazing, all of those things just seem so innocent, wonderful, and far away.

    Man sometimes I get jealous of normal childhoods.

    Trust me your life doesn't have to be amazing I order to make looking back on young childhood painful, you just have to have a fucked up enough childhood.

    had a nightmare last night where i bought a 2002 Corolla for like 18k which is about 17k more than what a 2002 Corolla is worth and also while i'm still paying off my current car loan and then the corolla got spray painted meaning i'd have to sink money into a new paint job just to sell it at a huge loss and also i had to move to another state with both cars some how

    most frightening dream i've ever had

    never been more relived to wake up and realize it wasn't real, but still just too realistic

    Shit shit the drugs aren't working.

    Errr I mean that's an interesting dream.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Yeah, my parents weren't nearly as hostile as Atomika's, but I sympathize.

    I wanted to be a Paleontologist and my dad's attitude was basically, "No, you can't make money doing that."

    I wanted to be a writer and no one, and I mean no one wanted to read anything I wrote.

    I look back and realize my passive nature when it comes to success may have resulted from no one giving a shit if I succeeded or not instead of the personal failing of laziness. I mean, my life is my own, I am responsible for the choices I make, but it sure would have been nice if someone had believed in me at some point.

    Nitrogen.. loves other nitrogens?

    it's when it's mixed with oxygens in unstable ways that it becomes unhappy.
