This is my personal list of things that suck, and why they do.   I, for one, am not like everybody else I know, because I refuse to conform to other's ideas.  This is why I am, in your eyes, strange.  This is my retaliation.  I hope the following things all end up disappearing off this list so I won't have to have such a thing.  If any of you, any of you share my views, please let me know.  Right now the number of people who can relate their views to mine is something like just 7.  If you can imagine.

   This is the NEW Things That Suck page.  Here, you can suggest things that should be put on this list.   I already have my stuff on there.  Now, I need other people out there to start suggesting things.

1.  Me, but in just a few ways.  A friend of mine told me I suck because I'm a guy (Thank you, Rachel, for labeling and stereotyping me).  Not only that, but the big sport in my school is basketball, primarily because I go to a ghetto school, and I suck at basketball, just to name a couple

2.  Rap.  I hate rap, and anything pertaining to rap.   I know a lot of people like it, but this is my things that suck list.  

3.  Exploding toilets.  I personally find these funny, but if I mention it to anyone else, they get really suspicious of me and refuse to make eye contact.

4.  Every single ex-girlfriend I've had, minus one.   Why?   Because I never dumped one of them.  I always am the one who gets dumped and hurt; never once have I broken up with a girl.

5.  Life.  If yours doesn't, you suck and I wish I had your life.

6.  Fall.  Everybody thinks that I should like fall, because that's when everything dies.  They don't know me.

7.  People who stereotype me.  My mood swings are so wild, it could be classified as multiple personalities.  You can't place a tag on me.    I change every few minutes!  One second, I'm absolutely insane, the next, a very quiet, nice person; the next moment I'm sobbing.  And people are uneasy with change, which is my problem.

8.  Virtually everybody I knew in my elementary school years.  I had no way of protecting myself from them then, and the treatment I got from them was harsh.  But that still doesn't explain why I am the way I am.

9.  Anybody reading this who is thinking what an idiot I am.    You're wrong.

10.  All of the people who make my life miserable.   Thanks for making me hate myself.

11.  Anybody who gets depressed too much.  They get on my nerves.  I don't mind a solemn mood sometimes, but I enjoy being happy.  And of course, this means the presence of Jell-O, because nobody can be happy without Jell-O.

12.  Death.  Mexicans view death as a beautiful thing, apparently.  I have no idea why.  I can't understand why a such a loss is respected.  Life is too short as it is.  I wish it were longer.

13.  Immature chicks.  I hate them.  Grow up and realize that you don't just treat a guy like a possession, is all I have to say.

14.  Rejection.  It has been said that after the rejection, lonliness is a walk in the park.  This is true, up to a point.

15.  Colds.  As of right now (12.17.99), I've had a cold which can only be described as the Horrible Cold of Death.  This is also the first time ever I've had the Cold of Death for three times in a fall.  It's been going away for a total of 5 weeks, and I've had it for 9.  It's still not totally gone.

16.  Being broke.  We all have had this experience.   Submitted by JC.

17.  Boredom.  It always kinda sucks when you have nothing better to do than pick your nose.  Submitted by JC.

18.  Chicks with testosterone levels higher than your own.   This isn't right. 

19.  Subconscious minds.  These can strike at any moment and make you do strange things.

20.  Little brothers. 

21.  Spontaneous Bovine Combustion (SBC).  If SBC activity increases, we may end up having to eat horses and drink goat's milk.  <cringe>

22.  When you're at the computer and the cat sits on your lap and he falls asleep and then you gotta go pee and you don't wanna wake up so you sit there trying to make it go away but it doesn't so you finally just GOTTA go NOW, so you get up really fast and the cat gets surprised and digs it's claws into your personal regions as you run screaming into the bathroomAAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEE.

23.  Pillows that don't stay fluffy, even though you fluff them and fluff them, they just don't stay that way, therefore they suck.  Compliments of Chris.

24.  English assignments that force you to demolish your website.  Anyone who visited the site between the second and fifth days of January knows what I'm talking about.

25.  Persons claiming that Soundgarden is cool, but can only name two songs, "Spoonman" and "Black Hole Sun."  Can you say "POSER!!?"

26.  Persons who just happen to guess that "Superunknown" is also a song, not just the only SG album they know about.

27.  Persons guessing "Down On The Upside" to be a third song.  At this point, you should have the person on the ground, attempting to smash their head with a rock.

28.  Persons who ask you what you are listening to, then look at you like you are a baggie of mouse remains when you answer "Soundgarden."

29.  Persons wearing any of the following brands of clothes: Fubu, anything having to do with pro wrestling, any ghetto-colored jackets reading "N. Carolina," "New York," "Chicago," "Los Angeles," or "Yankees."

30.  All New York sports teams.

31.  Persons wearing their hats in a sideways fashion.   Okay, I understand that it's your pwecious wittle gang sign, but couldn't you come up with anything more original?  How about you each severe 3 fingers and sew them to your foreheads?

32.  Homework, homework, HOMEWORK!  Now that the new semester has started, I have double my normal homework!  It sucks!  It SUCKS IT SUCKS IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!  Okay, I'm done ranting now.

33.  Go back and look at #14.  Now, I wrote that one a little while ago.  I just added the "up to a point" part.  Now, lonliness takes over my life, a slow, painful process that eats it's way through my already tortured mind, making me wonder if I'll ever feel right again.

34.  Happy people.
