I opened a box of cereal for breakfast this morning (new) and it was already half-empty!

Are you sure it wasn't half-full?

My old roommate invited me to a party at his house this weekend so I hitched a ride to my parents house who live near him. I was supposed to bring my computer so I lugged it all down with all my equipment. I spent last night at my parents' nasty house. Now I'm supposed to be at his house but he canceled the party inexplicably and won't answer my calls. This is the third time this has happened this summer. I specifically pestered yesterday to make sure he would go through with it and he assured me he would. Of course the second time this happened he did have a party and had promised me a ride (I have no car) but he couldn't get me one even though my house is a mile or two away, so he lied and said it was canceled, even though I have verification that it wasn't. AND he still has a terabyte hard drive of mine that I let him borrow.

My parents went to buy new speakers despite there being absolutely no problem with our old ones. We used the speakers without any problems until my mom decides we need to get new speakers "because they're old". Who cares how old they are, it matters how well they work.
So, we get the new speakers, plug in all the cords, and I listen to my music. I plug in my headphones, and what do I see? YOU CAN'T CHANGE THE GODDAMN VOLUME IF YOU HAVE HEADPHONES IN. It's about half blast. I turn it to full blast. It sounds the same. I turn it to the lowest setting that's not off. It's still the same volume. And I turn it off. It's still playing at the same volume.
And I take out the headphones. The sound quality is garbage. It's staticy and has worse quality than my friend's iPod speakers. So I have to either listen to soft music in my headphones or garbled-quality but loud music. All because my mother made an impulse buy that could have better been spent on a trip to the beach or eating out.

I have a car already, that's not the issue.
I never learned to ride a bike, can't be bothered to anyway.
My sister is really pissing me off, I can't believe someone could become so completely selfish and angering when the rest of us are fine.

The world is lucky I have no control over nuclear weapons. After work tonight I completely want to go postal. Also, I hate every human being on the face of the earth, but especially people who order their steak "butterfly" style at an effing Ruby Tuesday.

I'm lonely in a big house with few people, especially since my grandma passed away almost a month ago now.

You can change all your sound settings, including headphone volume in the sound master menu by double clicking on the sound icon in the bottom right.

I was hanging out with a group of my friends and one of them is a girl, I forget what was being discussed but it ended with her resorting to the old line "while men may be the head of the household, women are always the neck… we can turn that head in whichever direction we choose".
Now I grew up to learn to respect women and treat them as equals but I always suffer small lapses in my brain that cause this respectful centre to shut down when they're not showing me the same respect, before I knew it I had offered up this response:
"Of course men are the head and women the neck, the head contains the Brain while the Neck contains the voicebox"

I hate any kind of gender inequality, whether it be man to woman or woman to man. If a woman think's she can abuse my gender and get away with it, she will get what's coming to her. I NEVER talk bad about women, so I expect the same in return.

calling the cops to check it out is likely the best route as they may help the person out while checking out the annoyance
Just knock on his door, and if he answers just say something like 'Hi, just wanted to say hello'
Was the response:
A. Laughing
B. Silence
C. A Slap In The Face
If A, that's a rave. If B, that's nothing. If C, it's a rant.
