"If you you wanted to see me, you'd make time"
This is actually true, though. And I use that belief in establishing who I should continue to pursue and who I shouldn't. The moment I ask a bytch if she wants to hang out and she says that she wants to but is busy or doesn't have time or creates some excuse involving her schedule, I throw her to the bushes. Because 1, she thinks her time is more valuable than mine and 2, she's coming up with excuses that will end in me wasting my time :camby:

Bingo. Most overused platitude ever.

It's ridiculous. Light bulb flashed immediately because I heard it used recently and was :mindblown: I volunteer at a hospital nearby and was en route to wheeling a discharged patient to exit and this lady comes sobbing out of the elevator because she just found out she's been diagnosed with stage lll leukemia. Her sister looks her dead in the eye, gently caresses her hand while leading her out the door, and tells her "everything happens for a reason".


I mean.. :what: the hell? You're better off not saying anything, rather than telling someone who is about to undergo radiation treatment that more than likely at this stage is only going to succeed in ensuring her death is slow and painful, that the ensuing physical and mental torture is "for a reason." Folks legitimately have no idea how foolish they sound at times.

Be an existentialist, breh. It helps ease the pain of ignorance. That's fukked up for that sister to say that. Damn yo, cancer is that slow killer. By the time you know it's there it's more than likely to late to do anything. I met this one girl who told me she had stage 4 bone cancer. Home girl was only 33 years old :wtf:

Real eyes realize real lies :childplease:

Oh shyt !

For me it's got to be the Socrates quote that's been twisted
into an excuse for ignorance by idiots everywhere.

"A wise man knows that he knows nothing"
or
"The only true wisdom is knowing that you know nothing"
or
"I know that I know nothing"

Said by every conspiracy theory crack pot, Highschool
Dropout or General Dummy who misses the point of the quote.

Man, the sad thing is, I truly think the sister honestly believed that was the right thing to say at that moment. She honestly thought that would cheer her up. I think the saying is nonsense, but you can say that after you don't get the job you initially wanted, only to get a different one that you enjoy better two weeks later. Or maybe when your plans to sleep with a female fell threw because you had other arrangements, but you dodged a bullet because it turns out the chick had the clap. You don't say that after someone gets told they're a few months away from death. :beli:


But yeah, cancer is a beast. Doesn't discriminate based on age or status....can hit you at any moment. My ex had a friend that she kept in constant contact with after HS. Last they spoke, everything seemed normal, but my ex hadn't from her in over 90 days. She gets a call from the chicks parents telling her the girls three states over undergoing heavy cancer treatment. She's only 22 and the ex hasn't heard from her or her parents since, so we don't even know if the girl is alive or dead. Really have to appreciate good health, man. It's absolutely chilling at how fleeting it can be.
