well most of the quotes of duke nukem or blood for example came from, evil dead, they live, etc :P I like how duke say it xD

as cliche that is.... Not with that attitude. Whining never helps. life can improve but its only up to you. People from way worse situation are capable of improving their life. excuse. always with excuses. I know that they are easy. I still make them to myself. didn't get the job, didn't meet a girl. always blame the unfairness of life. but i know its bullshit. it's always my fault. didn't work hard enough, made mistakes. Didn't put enough effort. Then move! Move to London which does have a lot of job. come to Sydney. Thousands of job possibilities. Go to Cambodia and teach english (they pay fairly well and costs of living are nonexistent) thats what my Scottish friend did after a year on working visa in Australia. no man. Luck helps. but only hard work ever leads to success. NOBODY every succeeds on luck. it had never happened. Luck contributes to the success but whats luck or bad luck is up to the person. with hard work and effort a situation can be turned to ones advantage and then from perspective of time you will see that situation as luck. only if you choose the bad situation. only if you allow the bad situation to be possible in first place.
because if you can set up yourself in a way where you profit from good and bad situation (whether financially, socially or spiritually) the you progress forward even if that bad situation takes place.



excuse after excuse. if you make them of course you will be having bad luck. of course you won't succeed. one must sit down and take a reign over the life, analyze what mistakes one had done and what are the ways to improve oneself in order to succeed.

Listen to this!

there is no such thing as destiny. there is no path set for our selves by some higher beings. we are responsible for our own actions and our own situation. life is not a movie, or a book. its not written in advance. belief in destiny is escapism from responsibilities and consequences. it's just fear of not being in control.

I fucking love Jon St. John :D awesome video xD Thanks for sharing.

damn if like is this bad, how much badder death gonna be, save me Tom cruise or booze

Death's a relief believe me! no more pain no more BS and floating in a big ball of loving calmness! and your body feels hollow! because you are not in it anymore!

Nobody knows that, maybe it is maybe it's not. One thing is for sure, death is the only thing fair in this whole world, like Svetlana Alexievich saids:

"Death is the fairest thing in the world. No one's ever gotten out of it. The earth takes everyone - the kind, the cruel, the sinners. Aside from that, there's no fairness on earth.”

Thanks for posting that link. I've heard Nick talk before and watching that clip really helps to put things in perspective. That is where "good" and "bad" come into play in life...our perspective or interpretation of events. Some of the most challenging life experiences that I have been through I often call "bad" but they have helped to create the me that exists in this moment and have led to what I would call "good" things happening.

This short story from Dan Millman's Way of the Peaceful Warrior really exemplified this concept to me:

An old man and his son worked a small farm, with only one horse to pull the plow. One day, the horse ran away.

“How terrible,” sympathized the neighbors. “What bad luck.”

“Who knows whether it is bad luck or good luck,” the farmer replied.

A week later, the horse returned from the mountains, leading five wild mares into the barn.

“What wonderful luck!” said the neighbors.

“Good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?” answered the old man.

The next day, the son, trying to tame one of the horses, fell and broke his leg.

“How terrible. What bad luck!”

“Bad luck? Good luck?”

The army came to all the farms to take the young men for war, but the farmer’s son was of no use to them, so he was spared.

“Good? Bad?”

Edit: fine GOG.com don't let me use the tag for italics for the story :P

That seems to be your advice on multiple threads...have you got a story to share? :P

I'll wait until I recover and thus become unlazy. :P

The story better not involve 2 hands and yourself, as that doesn't count! :P

Nah I only use one for that. lol

your better off getting a fleshlight for that no mess on hand(s) then!
Nice to see a fellow Aussie!
