Exactly. I despise being poor. Have to go days without even eating at a fast-food restaurant.
And yes, what did I do in my past lives? I'm siding with Mirc on this issue.

Hmm, this has come up before, but relatively speaking very, very few of us at CFC are poor, not compared to the rest of the world.

I know that, I imagined someone who has time to spend here is not usually poor. But there are some exceptions.

I hate people who never get to the point but waste your time with rambling preambles that have nothing to do with the central point. And then just when you think theyre going to start getting to the point, they pause and go off on another tangent. This often can go on indefinitely if I dont put a stop to it.
I also hate the meaningless term 'self starter'. When I hear that, the person goes into my mental 'phony jackass, third rate bs artist' file.

Thanks. That's my hope too. That's already my main source of income. I'm going to leave in maximum 2 years - to Germany or the US, I'll see. Can't wait.
As I was leaving my apartment building, I saw an elderly man by the list of names in the vestibule, so I opened the door for him. He said he was on his way out, but was just seeing how many people on that list were still alive, since that never gets updated. We said that, yeah, the superintendent screwed that back into the wall after someone tore at it, but he wouldn't fix the bells, change the lights in the building, etc.
Then he said that the landlord (who resides in Israel and operates the buildings through a corporation) was here a couple days ago. When he brought it up to the landlord, the landlord simply shrugged and said something to the effect of "Whatever."
Considering my father hurt himself because the banister broke right off on the stairs (and now the stairs are in the dark because the light there has been out for 3 months), this just pisses me off more.
The lawyer finally called back and made a deal with my father, I suppose since my father told him off at the beginning of this month. No more stupid MRIs that require 4-hour round trips on crowded mass transit to Park Avenue or Flushing (We live in southeast Brooklyn, for those familiar) and that he will no longer try to force my father to not move to North Carolina (since my mother had to move there for work) for another year. Additionally, since my father had enough with the lawyer's lies and passed on his Medicare insurance to the quack doctors, they'd work around that too.
If it just takes him going back to the physical therapy twice a week until he moves, it might just be worth it. If the lawyer blows it and the case is lost, we don't owe anything.
It's almost like living in a building in a slum...it shouldn't have to be this way. Even though there are huge safety violations, at least making sure the lights work and the bells work wouldn't take that much trouble. Lazy superintendent, stupid landlord. It shouldn't be like this. Next winter, when I'm sure there will be days without heat, I think I'll raise some bureaucratic hell.

Ok, this is a combination beg for help, and massive rant:
About a week ago a girl I know deleted me on Myspace... No big deal she was only 12, and not really a great friend or anything, just somebody I know through my homeschool group.
Well, about three days later she told me she deleted me because her mother made her. I thought "Weird I wonder why?", but her brother didn't delete me so I didn't really worry about it (I'm much better friends with him). Well, I just discovered a few more things...
a) He was supposed to delete me too, but for some reason didn't. Presumeably because we're good friends.
b) Her mother has been talking to other mothers, and kids in an attepmt to find smething out about me.
c) Supposedly this has to do with comments I left on her page, but as far as I can recall I haven't left any particularly 'bad' comments on her page...
So, I'm mad, and confused as hell... And I want to send her (The mother) a message saying how pissed I am about her talking . .. .. .. . behind my back, nd demanding an explanation.
Thanks for letting me get this off my chest, and any help/advice would really be appreciated

You know, that's not nice. I think you should demand explanation.
Well, I learned from her older son, (my good friend) that she's upset, because I used offensive language... Which is pretty pathetic since both of her children swear quite a bit. Anyway I sent her the below message. I know it probably could have been btter, but it was as diplomatic as I could get.
Think I'm in even more trouble now??

Hahaha....
that reminds me of a time I was talking to my friend on MSN, and then he left the computer and his mom went on his computer while his MSN was still on and saw our covo which where we were fantaszing about gay sex. She was liek NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! And blocked and deleted me. Hahah. But he added me back on later.
Noo one's moms like me or my friends. Teacher like me up till the point they realize my true nature. Apparently a teacher overheard me cursing a few days ago and was like NOOOO!!! I thought silver was a nice boy or something like that. Hahahaha.

I sympathize, even though I do still have a lot to be grateful over...
But I can't even get my guitar. My mother is strapped for money trying to pay for my education and my sister's college to the point where she doesn't know if she could even keep that up. What's worse I can't even get a job yet.To top it off some jerkoffs robbed me at knife point while I was walking home from the bus station and got off with my ipod. I saw them get into a car with some older guys, what is it here now? The older criminals are to flimsy and cowardly to do their own dirt? Why don't they get a life already and stop being the animalistic parasites they are. Sometimes I wonder why people believe human kind has come so far ahead when some people it seems don't have the basic understanding to get their own stuff and not try to take it from others. Boy I pity them, and I'd love to see them when they end up as high school dropouts with a family and more on the way. Then we'll see who's the man now. Thieves make me sick. I should go find one to vomit on.

Oh, I agree so much with you here. I did mention earlier in this thread that I got 2 bikes and 2 mobile phones stolen in the past year.
Nothing I could do, each time.BTW my guitar is worth around $4000, but I definitely worked hard for it (won it at a big contest for the first prize), so though it's so expensive I do know how much hard work is needed for something like this (well, considering that this guitar costs around as much as my father earns in.. over a year, I definitely know what it means
). You know, it's all much more expensive when you want to do something professionally. I could have bought a guitar for around $130 but its sound is laughable.
BTW, here's an interesting story to compare professional guitar prices (and prizes): At the last contest I've been to, the first prize was a $6700 guitar
eek, which a French guy won. However, it's totally useless to him, because he already has a $20,200 (original Smallman!) guitar. 
Why I hate/strongly dislike/wish I had nothing to do with my dad:
1. Abuses my beagle that we adopted since the hunter in our community abandoned it. He literally hits the dog and threw him down the stairs last week.
2. Is too much of an arrogant, macho ashhole to apologize for anything. Even after the dog incident, he didn't apologize even though I stood up to him for the first time in my life and ran down the stairs cursing at the top of my lungs, giving him the verbal message that one more f-up with my dog and he'll be paying with his life. No apology after that. Then last night I got a haircut, and I hate haircuts, and he "jokingly" made fun of my haircut saying "oh, nice mullet. I mean rat tail, I mean..." blah blah blah. Darn old man pisses me off. Sound like random bs I have nothing to hate my dad over? It isn't.
3. Is so arrogant like I already said and full of himself that he'll talk to random people for literally 15 minutes about NOTHING. I am not exaggerating in the least. We'll be on vacation or something, or leaving a sports game, and he'll talk to random people that just want to go to work or leave to go home. They DON"T care what he has to say, nobody does!
4. Took about 17 years to get through his thick scull that I HATE green peppers on any food, and yet continued to put them on nearly everything we ate. And if it was red peppers, the moron would say, "Oh they're just tomatoes". Ummm, excuse me, I think I know what the f-ck tomatoes taste like you dumb piece of dog crap.
5. We annually take two weeks off in the summer for "vacation". I use the term vacation very loosely here in the fact that not once has anyone other than my dad chosent he location of our vacation, it is always in the most boring part of the U.S. We go to some cool place like Vermont/Maine/Colorado/California and he makes life miserable every time. How is that possible? The jerk drives on dirt roads (literally dirt, no pavement) for hours upon hours, and will drive through farmland/woodland, as if we don't have enough of it back at home. If you know me, you'd know I love the country and open land. But for vaction, is it too much to ask to go someplace fun and different? Money is not an issue, he is president of his business for pete's sake. So why can't we go to someplace like Europe for even just a week? Who knows, my dad has something wrong in his head.
6. We watched The Wicker Man with Nicholas Cage and it was about this guy who goes to this island to find his ex-wife and is instead stranded, and trapped by the locals who are all women, and men are used as their slaves. And he doesn't figure this out, and then it is clear that the women are going to kill him, and they do. It was very sadistic. But a movie nonetheless.
My sister is the one who picked this movie out since none of us had seen it before. Well my dad went beserk, literally, throwing stuff around, cursing at my sister, threatening her, etc. He had it in his danm conspiracy theory Rush Limbaugh mind that my sistesr was some sort of feminist and agreed with the movie and wanted to see all men turned into womens' slaves.
7. When I was 11 or 12, I played rec. basketball and my dad was the coach. Well after one game, my dad was pissed at me and I had no clue why. For God's sake it was just a game. Well he turns around in the car, in front of the rest of the family, and says, "So you are too much of a wimp to actually play hard against Tommy Sullivan? You know you just let him score on you all game don't you?" What the hell am I, an 11 year old supposed to say to something like that?
Then later that night he went on a rampage/rant to my mom about how he had come to raise two wimps and cowards (me and my sister). I never said this at the time, but right now my sports career through highschool was 100 times better than his ever was. I have a state record in track for the 800 meter relay, I made Varsity Lacrosse my sophmore year and Varsity Soccer my sophmore year as well. He would never compare to me athletically. But no I am a female reproductive organ becase I played soccer and not football. (Its not like he even "played" football, he rode the bench).
8. Doesn't want to face the reality that I don't want to be an engineer/logistician and work for him. Doesn't want to face the reality that I don't like geology/macrobiology. I like molecular bio and biochemistry. Is there anything wrong with that? To him there is...
9. Says nothing interesting ever. I'm not being "too harsh" or anything either. Literally everything he says is equally as boring as the "vacations" we go on every year. He'll rant about how some hot movie star that 99.99999% of the American population would LOVE to make love to is really butt ugly and wears the stupidest clothes. Never mind that everyone else thinks she's hot, he is always right.
10. Has one of the best computers at home that most computer geeks would kill for, except what does he use it for and only allow it to be used for?
Microsoft office things, Computer card games, and Medal of Honor Allied Assault. No online games, no internet, nothing fun at all. ALl he does is play solitare on a piece of equipment that costs about $3,000. Does that make sense at all?
11. Hates me to use the internet because just going on the internet will cause his precious computer to contract the latest megavirus. Imagine Paris Hilton lecturing you on this topic, that is what it is like. He doesn't know crap about them, yet tries to pose as an expert, and me with my one highschool computer class knows 1000 times more than him.
12. Fills our lawn with pesticides and fertilizer, never mind the ecological consequences of such actions, he's killing all the weeds!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone literally with a basic level biology course could tell you lawns require a natural soil, not one overloaded with fertilizer/pesticides that kill everything in the general area.
13. Bigoted and intolerant of anything slightly liberal. Narrowminded, etc.
14. Purposefully will watch some of his favorite shows such as Antique Roadshow, Law and Order, PBS when my ONE favorite show comes on. Family Guy. I only have one show I request that I can watch and it only comes on once during the week. But no, Mr. Alpha male of the pack always has it his way.
15. Buys Chevy Suburbans like they're bubble gum, but then won't pay for us to have decent internet service. And we have basic TV, ie 5 channel antenna TV.
This is just scratching the surface.

A lot of your complaints are pretty petty sounds like your just pissed off about the first incident.
