A couple of days ago someone decided it would be a funny idea to smash my car windscreen meaning that I cannot drive into work. Baring in mind I live about 3 miles from my workplace this is obviously a pain. Today I managed to get a lift in with my Dad as he was about but he couldn't take me home. No problems, I thought - just get a taxi back (they don't try and talk to you here - its easy) and no fuss needed. Whilst waiting for my taxi outside where I work some drunkard decides to try and start a fight with me, thankfully only leaving me with a painful arm where I blocked the punch.

Why do people decide to randomly make others lives hell? Makes me quite sad at times, although also makes me realize why I never leave the house aside from work.

Whenever someone asks me why people insist on making difficult others' lives, I would always go into detail as to how human's evolution history is one of the culprits. Now all I would rather do is extend my sympathies toward you, and maybe advise seeking a little solace in pitying both the drunkard, and the miscreant who broke your window, for maybe the world has dealt them an even nastier blow than you can imagine, so much that they feel they must retaliate on random strangers, and you and your property just happened to be closest...

Sorry dude, what an a**hole. I hope things start to turn around for you. Don't let others poison your thoughts.

violence aginst others is a disgusting lack of feeling towards society and all the good people like you in it. I hope you can catch the culprit and get your car fixed. Alcohole and violence, violence and alcohol both equally bad combinations. Heres a virtual hug

Depression is a dangerous, deadly communicable disease. It's a hot potato. Where there is no room to drop the hot potato, the only thing the people can do is drop it on each other, or keep it and burn their hands. :)

A large band of pigs has just flown over my house. It was an amazing sight!

Truth, and recognizing reality... it's a beautiful thing. Thsi is exactly how I feel. Excellent post.

These things happen in life and it is very unfortunate to encounter them. If this doesn't happen regularly, just try to accept the bad luck and move on.
