I could stand with a whole lot more honesty.
I'd like to think that people are honest with me, but I'm never sure. If you ever have a doubt on whether you should be honest with me, be honest.
Either I will agree with you, and incorporate changes into my life (if needed)
Or I'll disagree with you, and tell you to fuck off. :)
But don't be false to me. I hate betrayal and dishonesty most of all. Even hatred, bad as it may be, is pure and direct.

Now, back to building computers.

Honesty is usually appreciated by most.

I hate having to try and determine what it is people aren't saying ... but I can't help it, untruths usually stand there like a neon billboard in the night sky, declaring their falsehood in painfully bright, blood red audacity. I have to look behind the glaring harsh light of the lie to see the dim gray lettering on matte black which represents the truth ... often one's only means of discerning the truth is cast by the illumination of the lie itself ...

Allright, I just busted that simile to pieces ... hopefully somewhere in there my statement had sufficient clarity to not get discarded immediately.

I'm sorry you are having to deal with whatever situation it is you are in, it doesn't sound pleasant in the least.

It could be a lot worse.

That was mainly my notice to the world. Hopefully the world will take heed of it.

Did something prompt this?
You can, of course, tell me to go screw. :-)

nothing too major. Something was said in jest, and I responded to it in jest. It just caught me a little off guard. I'd much prefer my friends to be up front with me, even if they say something that might hurt my feelings.
