I'm from the hood. what did I do that others can't?

[VerbalIntercourse]

Serious question..

I'm realizing my dreams, i made it to the final round interviews for the top companies in the nation. I'm not completely there yet, but I feel it happening.

I'm not smart. I don't have a high IQ. I'm from the ghetto, and I grew up poor.

I graduated with no debt in undergrad because i workEd 40 hours a week! And i still had 3.9! I just recently completely very rigorous school program and worked way more than 40 hours a week and i still got a 3.6.

I'm not special, i'm not smart. I did it without the support of the government or social welfare or my parents. Why am i wrong to expect everyone else to have the tenacity and balls to do what I routinely accomplish?

What makes me different? Nothing!


People make the beds they sleep in. I'm sorry. I don't fell sorry for nobody. I'm not an exceptional person and that is obvious. People have no excuse.

You're unique snowflake. We all are. You were either born or raised a particular way that allowed you to make those choices, not all are as fortunate. Rather than look down on people you should attempt to really understand what motives some.

Often it's a feeling of no hope, lack of options, abuse,...the list is actually pretty extensive. Consider yourself fortunate that you were born with enough sense to recognize the BS that often trips other ups and pray that you're not humbled. Or pray that your are, you'll be a better man for it.

You sound like you're trying to prove something to yourself. A little good opportunity with prospective jobs has gotten you excited and now you're on this kick where you make all these patronizing posts about your superiority to others. Just calm down and fall back and think about what you're saying.

You realized that ultimately YOU have power in your life. Others from your situation like to play the victim role and take zero accountability for their lives. Props to you btw.

 

[OG Talk]

You had a lot of help along the way (a part you are obviously not mentioning)

Not everyone has help..

Not everyone has the luxury of having a reversible dual-function head.

Those aren't really excuses for people who don't even try to better their situation though.

So Gundumb how do you think your life would be different if that white girl you pulled a pistol on would've pressed charges? Or if you got caught doing any of some of the other things you did when you were going your fake thug phase?

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Heres one thing you did that most people can't

Let another man say slanderous things about his own people in silence... and then be thankful to be in his presence after

Youre not living a dream, you're living a nightmare of a conflicted identity

I have a question for you. Do you believe you are talking to or referencing a real person, or are you just playing along for entertainment?

This person is either a troll or a severely sick individual. Why is his word to be taken as fact?

Just curious.

He was better off being a fake thug than a real one. Real thugs get excuses made for them everyday.

[Dirty_Jerz]

i guess everyone "from the hood" goes through the same situations as you then and is exposed to the same options

glad we cleared that up

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Do you suffer from a chemical imbalance or are you feeling yourself because of the job offer(congrats btw)?
