People are concerned about what they feed their bodies; I feel its equally important to watch what you feed your mind.

That is a good point, Aspinator.

I wonder how the people at the art store would feel if I took my own life if they don't lift the ban.


They'd shug and assume it was the straw that broke the camel's back, agree among themselves there must be more to it than the ban and carry on with their lives.

Killing one's self to spite others is rarely effective at imposing guilt onto those others because they won't see it the way the person who hoped to make them feel guilty sees things.

Because I was banned from my favourite art store, so I have no reason to try and win over $75 so I can buy something from that store.

I apologize for being a downer over the past 3 days. I'll start being more positive tomorrow.

You had your reasons to be down, they're valid. You don't owe it to us to be cheerful for our sake, but I hope you're feeling better so that the being more positive is natural.

I plan to spend the next 2 hours listening to my favourite music, watching Hogan's Heroes and being true to myself. I'm not going to modernize like I said I was going to for the past 48 hours. I did that in 2007 after something came to an end and that was the worst thing I've ever done. I'm not going to play Cockney Rebel as in the pissed off Londoner who wants to cause trouble. I've done that for too many years throughout my past. I'm going to keep wearing my favourite hat and listening to my favourite music. I'm also going to keep my avatar.

Been wearing the wrong specs since last Friday. I didn't even notice until today.

I've worn horn-rimmed glasses that I didn't need for 11 years just so I'd look more intelligent so people wouldn't treat me like I was slow. Did it work? No. I was still treated like an idiot.
