emiliadebilia liked nessak's picture

so. here's the thing.

i find it difficult to talk with people that have no desire to better themselves
i mean.
right now,
we're living in a time period of complete and utter anti-intellectual pride.
not that it matters, but here's an example of this:
i was called a "fucking nerd" for knowing who stalin is in a conversation recently.
i really wasn't offended that i was called names, i was just upset that this person didn't know who fucking stalin was.
REALLY? =(

i shouldn't let stupid people get to me.
i know it.
there are too many of them and they aren't technically bothering me
and i'm wasting precious potential good-mood time on this

but how can it not?

i have completely secluded myself from everyone except for josh and the people i work with
because i get upset when people have to look at a chart of pictures of vegetables at the grocery store to be able to identify an artichoke
and i get frustrated when people drink themselves into having fun
and it's none of my business that they're stupid and they're ruining parts of themselves to have fun
but i can't help but feel helpless
thinking that that's all there.

a grocery store full of nameless artichoke-shaped vegetables and a quest for buy one get one doritos.

i think i just. i need a break from people in real life to start to like them again.
i just don't want someone to say
'ok, i HAVE to ask. what are you taking photos of??'
every time i try to do videos by myself
and i don't want dudes yelling 'GURL, TAKE MY PICHA'
whenever i walk around with a camera
and i don't want people to yell at me when i'm riding my bike
and tell me to pop a wheelie or jump over something
because LIFE ISN'T A CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE BOOK, YOU IGNORANT JERKS.
you can't yell at people to do stuff.
what possesses people to yell at strangers like that?

and i hate going to gas stations to buy gum
because i love gum
in all of its innocence and sugary goodness
and have some seedy fucking dude who's trying to bum a smoke outside give me a bunch of looks up and down
and say 'it's a real REAL nice day out today. real REAL nice. yeah, gurl.'

so.

it's not like i'm some brilliant, bright shining star as far as intellectuals go
but it seems like everyone is just getting stupider.
maybe i'm just an intolerant, bitter hermit.

time to shower and go get coffee
(coffee, for me, translates to - vegan peanut butter cups and overpriced mineral water because caffeine makes me poop. hot.)
