The problem is, I have met some of them, and I'm still scared.
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure and the privilege is mine. |

Global social and economic collapse.......well you did ask.
I have serious doubts that we will get through this century intact. The dependence on oil, increasing reliance on technology for many aspects of our daily lives, changing climate, consequences of racial intolerance/hatred. Plenty of stumbling blocks out there.
Happy New Year!

Yes, I know the last two aren't rational--but when you're watching a scary movie, it's pretty scary.
Definitely a theme developing here.

Oh yeah my other biggest fear is going on Xbox Live with my modchip enabled. I forgot to mention that, lately I've been having nightmares about it.
I knew a guy who was deadly afraid of midgets, he couldn't go near em'. I wonder what ever happened to him... I'm guessing it was a midget related fait. |

One - right?
One "biggest fear" ?
Never getting liad again.
Really, my greatest fear is that someday my son will take his own life.
I can't think of anything scarier other than maybe finding him or being the reason why.
Unlikely yes, but absolutely terrifying. |

Two of my friend's kids killed themselves, KSR, and it was
nothing my friend or his wife could have ever anticipated
or imagined. (Yep, and it sucks.) So I think you're covered, if you've already thought about it and you're worrying and looking out, it won't happen. My friend and his wife were not expecting it...and it happened twice.

Two of them? Fucking hell that is absolutely terrible. One must be heartbreaking enough, but two? I really have no idea how they coped.
Did either of them give reasons?

Yeah, it's been a great Christmas for them. The second one
just killed herself, their son was the first. They have another son, who is alive, the only one of his siblings who hasn't committed suicide. Sorry to go on so. It's been a tough time for everybody, most of all for our friends who are the sweetest couple. Neither child left a note (both were in their 20s). And one, you'll love this,
was a therapist specializing in depression. Anyway, it's hard to hurt for people you love and these friends are very nice people and we're all in shock ... for the second time.
Deep breath and moving on now.
I fear that the Catholics won't tour any time soon.

My best friend's dad hung himself in their garage last June. Her little sister (18) was home from college and found him, had to cut him down, tried to do CPR. Older sister was my roomate and apparently the family couldn't get ahold of her, so her boyfriend (who was stationed in Iraq) called me in the middle of the night and had me tell her before driving her 5 hours to get her home. When we got there the garage door was open. It was the most horrible thing I've ever been through, I can't imagine what it was like for them. Their mom had been sick for years and can't work, so both daughters had to quit school/work (my best friend had a great job and was almost done with her MBA, little sister pre-med), move home and take care of their mom. Now they both work at Walmart. Rambling...
I fear they won't ever get over it. I also fear that I won't ever stop hating him for doing that to his girls.

Another tragic tale. Suicide is one of the most unimaginable horrors I can think of. All round it just involves mental pain and anguish, from the person who has taken his/her life, to those that they have left behind.
One of the many things in life that I wonder why we have to live with.

Seeing as the thread is heading this way:
When I was eleven a kid I had known since I was a baby hung himself with his school tie on the banister of the stairs of his house, his five year old sister found him. His Dad came round the night he died and told me that it had took half an hour for the paramedics to get there, that he'd cut him down and tried CPR but Stephen kept vomiting and he couldn't do it. He also told me that the odd time I'd walked home with this kid he'd mentioned to his dad, and I should have done that more. Which was nice. He was bullied terribly at school and his family life was a joke. Poor lad.

You know, it is very petty and mean and simplistic, but I wonder if the jocks and the bullies will ever get the news?
I think viewing a documentary about Harris and Kliebold in addition to suicides of bullied kids should be required upon entry into high school...or at whatever level of education the children are at around age 13 or 14.
They should know that when they start pushing each other around and really being mean that they are playing with fire.
I'm not saying it is the only cause, but a big factor.
I still have issues about being pushed around at that age...and it was 20 years ago. |

I was bullied for nearly all of my schooling, it took me cracking some lads ribs and busting his nose for it to stop.
He got it after that.

a relative in my family has a daughter with a fatal illness. she's probably only expected to live into her 20's.
i think that would be even worse than losing your kid. knowing that at some point, before their time, you will have to let go.
if i was having kids i'd be afraid of something like that happening..
this thread is uplifting

Ok that sounds a lot worse than it actually was, it all got a bit much and it was him or me so I got all 'Carrier on his ass, snapped and gave him a serious verbal onslaught which I don't think he was expecting, he stepped back tripped over and still pissed off I put the boot in a couple of times.
I didn't care much, stopped them kicking the living crap out of me.

When this guy I knew died, it was pretty odd because I was a kid and hadn't really heard of suicide, didn't know what it was. Talk about a rude a-fucking-wakening. It was a year or two after my folks divorced and the split hit my mum really hard, she cried all the time and other stuff and then I learned that people could do this suicide thing if they were sad. I used to wait till everyone had gone to sleep and sit outside their rooms to listen to them breathing, make sure they were still alive. Then I'd go to bed, worry again and repeat the process. My mum also was just an anxious type anyway so she worried about the windows and doors being locked (we lived in hell) and gas turned off, and I picked up on that too so after a while I'd to the breathing check, the doors check, the windows check the gas appliance check, then repeat the process.
I still sort of do when I visit either my dad or my mum, I still go round and do the check. I am terrified of losing someone else like that.
Cheery.

just tell yourself, "I WILL GET LIAD! I WILL!!!" every morning when you wake up.
it won't help. but at least it will change your attitude

Note to self:
"Leave any party immediately if a conversation involving Morrissey, The Smiths or anything related to either of the topics happens or is likely to happen." |

I should clarify that I would prefer to be liad by an attractive human female(s).
Hence, the avoidance of Morrissey dicussion-laden gatherings. |

back up a sec guys, outliving your children is downright terrifying!
never getting liad again is a close second. for men, i guess erectile dysfunction would be worse than total social ineptitude (at least then you could get a hooker or something).
i always worry about the post-coital conversation with girls who love the smiths or morrissey and hope for a quick turnaround time.
Rat: do you have any regrets?
Pig: no, but i had a parrot once
Rat: that made absolutely no sense
Pig: well, it made sense to me until i learned he couldn't talk
Rat: i wish you couldn't talk
Pig: you would've liked my parrot |

Oh but just look at Cheesey's sig. It's the greatest thing
ever. I swoon every time I see one of his posts (all the forum
ladies do!). Seriously, the Smiths bring me such joy.
I know that most people think of darkness and gloom when they
think of the Smiths, but not me.
