You might miss those things now, but they'll return if you're persistent enough. I didn't have a fundme, but I still managed to make it out alright after having nothing. If you miss those things enough, it will be the driving force to get you back on your feet. I worked odd jobs, did the fast food thing, and eventually got to work at an auto repair shop. Granted none of it was great money, but once I started getting experience, it opened up new doors. Before I knew it I was programming, setting up, and doing prototype tooling on CNC machines, which got me into my now position.



You make your own fate, being 30 isn't shit this day and age. Just be persistent and push yourself. If you're negative, think about the shit you miss and do something about it.

So, if I may have the creative liberty of condensing down your post to a very important observation...

You are a tool making tools....


I kid bro - your story is really awesome and I'm glad you're in the spot you are now in (for serious).

Dude..., not even cool. I was THEE BIGGEST tool, that was also making tools. It was an oxymoron that not even my boss could encompass. I lived with it, now I'm just a tool at a desk buying tools.


Once a tool always a tool, I guess.

I don't have anything all that weird to confess but here goes.

I'm deployed to Kuwait and about to re-deploy back home. We're currently sleeping on cots in 40 man tents. Sometimes I take off all my clothes, tuck my cock and balls between my legs and scream "Has anyone seen my sister?"

like I said, nothing too weird but it's nice to get it off my chest....

To clarify, did you screw her like lil Wayne, or was SHE like lil Wayne. After the hood incident, it is important to know as I rebuild my image of you.

I get in front of people going slow in the left lane and go slower until they get pissed and pass me. I imagine they are cussing me out the same way I was doing them when they were in my way.
