I have a true phobia and fear of seagulls. I am not lying. I was ganged up by them when I was really little, getting pecked and scratched at and I've been terrified of them ever since. As my info says, I do live right next to a beach.
 
I have watched MLP. Was I utterly disgusted by it and the fact that grown men and women are known to be in love with it to the point that they develop a so-called crush on a particular character? Not really. Did I fall into a dream-like trance and get sucked into its ensnaring atmosphere of pony galore? No.

I think I'm just used to those kinds of behaviors from characters, because I've watched anime a lot of my life, and I personally enjoy it.

I've actually forced myself to watch MLP a year ago, and the exact same thing happened.. I was expecting to be dragged to all of those pony-stuff and i couldn't withstand even 5 minutes of it. But, the thing is that I hardly watch Anime.
 
Quite the reverse on this side of the coin.

I promised myself a long time ago, when the whole thing was blossoming (my avatar was the Denver Broncos badge instead, a semi-joke towards it), that I'd watch the first episode. I didn't. And later that year, I watched Neon Genesis Evangelion. And I've been stuck to something remotely like the concept of anime ever since. I do not regret it one bit.
 
I didn't actually sleep when while I was watching Neon Genesis Evangelion, and I'd start to feel really depressed it I had to go away from the screen to eat or use the bathroom or some other life necessity.
 
Only a few people on GTP know about this. When I was young, a lot of outsiders used to bully me
My core group of friends always had my back, and I still hang out with them today, but it was everyone else that would put me down.

I had a very hard time through some of elementary school. I was the strange kid with the eye patch (lazy eye), glasses and very prominent buckteeth. I'll never forget one name..."bucky the buckasaurus"...that one really hurt. Another kid once said to me "you must really love Spongebob because your teeth are just like his!"

I had issues. Been called everything from inbred to who knows what. It couldn't be farther from the truth. To this day I hate my physical appearance.

So it put me in a strange place. I felt angry and it got taken out on the wrong people. What happened to me is no excuse for what I have done. Please be aware I am very ashamed of what I did and regret it every day. Please don't think differently of me.

I used to physically beat up on a mentally challenged kid. I'd shove him and knock him down. I never was caught. Never got in trouble.

Then i used to control my moms friends kid. The sense of power over them made me feel invincible.

Then i use to beat up on but not bad a little one, and she wasn't very old and oh my god thinking about it now i want to cry.

I feel absolutely horrible. I absolutely despise every aspect to that part of my life.

I went from being bullied to becoming a bully.

I became an aggressive person. I got into fights a lot. My mental state started deterioating. Slowly. Then my head injury and accident came and it messed my head up really bad.

My self worth and confidence in everything plummeted. To this day I still have severe issues with taking pride in anything I do.

I gave into peer pressure. I wanted to fit in with my friends. This is how my battle with activities I can't realy discuss on GTP came about. Many of you premo guys know about this stuff.

This was hard for me to put out there. I just needed to say it. Tell me i am a piece of crap for doing it. I know I am. And its something I am going to have to live with. :(

That's pretty deep, @Slash.

I can kind of sympathise a bit because, although I wasn't bullied, I did use to bully my sister and punch and kick her sometimes and I know I'll never forgive that part of me which did that for what ever reason it was (I was also a pretty messed up kid). We now get on fine and I've apologised for all the horrible things I did when we were kids but I still wish I could go back and undo it, there's no way of knowing how it has affected her throughout her life even if she says it hasn't.

Now I feel like a complete bastard all over again.
 
I know the feeling. I treated my sisters like garbage through it all. Telling them they were crap and that I wanted to be an only child. I told them many times I wished they were never born. That I hated them. At the time I didn't realize the potential impact that could have on someones life but man do I regret it all. I look back now and think how could I have even said that to them especially because i know what its like to be put down.

A while back you and I discussed some of this stuff but theres a lot that went unsaid. I'm just glad you were there to listen when I was stilling kicking and screaming.


I absolutely despise bullying. Ay the time it happened I just brushed a lot of it off. It never really hit me until recently when I realized what went down and reflected on it all. The impact it had on me was detrimental. It led to many suicidal thoughts still to this day.
 
I don't know if this qualify as a confession, but when I was younger I got "bullied" for looking a lot like the young Macaulay Culkin. I didn't really take it personal, apart from getting annoyed over it, and just told people he was my cousin. The worst part about it, is that I actually think people believed me. :lol:

The sunscreen is cooking oil. Of course you can't do anything about it--I just thought I'd give you the heads-up.

Oh wait, there's news:

Dearest Inhabitants of Hell,

Due to recent cutbacks, the cooking oil you've grown accustomed to using as sunscreen has been replaced with freshly (some as recent as the 13th century) rendered lard.

With regards,

Your Overlord

Well isn't that just peachy...

I went through my entire GCSEs doing maybe like 3 pieces of homework. My A-levels weren't much better.

I find it really difficult to talk to kids which makes playing online games kinda hard.

I have really bad anger issues when playing games. I broke BOTH my PS3 controllers playing Burnout Paradise.

I am absolutely terrified of wasps. I mean, this might seem rational, but I mean I can't even be in the same room as one and they're part of the reason why I avoid eating outside as much as possible. Seriously, I hear a single, faint but low buzz in the distance? I'm outta there ASAP.

I'm pretty sure I'm one of the worst looking people I know.

I'm actually a lizard person disguised as Barack Obama disguised as an 18 year old English teenager.

I don't drink alcohol at all. I'd like to like it but I just don't really enjoy it that much. This makes being part of a huge family owned drinks business kinda awkward.

I'm still not 100% sure on my gender and sexual identity. There are times when I just think 'Am I really a guy?' and I really don't even know what's going on.

I don't actually think Corvettes are snorevettes.

Don't worry, that's perfectly normal. Personally, the idea of being certain of one's gender and/or sexual identity kind of confuses and somewhat scares me. The idea makes me feel claustrophobic.

I personally can't recall a moment in my life when I felt like I wasn't male. However, I was fairly certain I was straight until I met this guy when I was 16...

It's mostly that I'm worried about what people might say. I already spent a large proportion of my school life being laughed at for being weird and ridiculously weak and scrawny (still can't do a pull-up) so I mean IDK if they would understand or not.
 
I have to confess to having occasional dry spells on my console games. Sometimes I feel like I don't want to play my console games at all, no matter what I try to do.

Is it because I'm stuck in the transition period between PS3 and PS4? Or is it that I'm starting to lose interest in console gaming?
