Sometimes, when I accidentally upset people in GD, I feel a little bad at first.
Like, 'Wow man, what set that guy off? Doesn't he understand a joke?"

Then I realized that it's GD. That's what they do there. Some of those people aren't very happy with themselves or their lives, and they're going to be bitter about a lot of things. Whatever.

But then I have a side of me that says, "Good, I just pissed that dickhead off."

So it kind of turns out to be a positive for all.

They're happy that they can show their rage to the world, and I'm happy to offer them the platform to do so.

Such a cool place the DU is sometimes.

I usually try not to but maybe I need to do that more often.

1. I HATE when I accidently upset people in GD.
I feel seriously bad about it, and sometimes, I will get a little misty eyed.

But then, I start power chugging some beer and stuffing Cheetos in my face as fast as possible. Then, the drooling and deranged laughter starts.

2. I need to try that misty eyed part.
That particular feeling just hasn't come to me yet.

But that other part I could do quite well and I may just get started with it.

I just hate the way my fingers feel after touching a Cheeto though.

And I have to brush my teeth for exactly four hours and thirteen minutes to get all the Cheeto material out of the inside of my face.

But the drooling and the deranged laughter is right up my alley.

3. If you laugh hard enough...
The Cheeto stuff flies out of your mouth automatically.

14. Sorry I got you beat.
I use a phone like this to call and dictate my posts to an old lady who then faxes a copy to the library, where the person scans the fax and sends it to a young kid in a basement who then types it all out as if it's me, then posts it here.

So there.

18. Getting angry gives part of your feelings to someone else.
Since you let them control how you feel by doing that.

Pretty silly way to live, laugh it off.
