I hate careers. I hate dead-end jobs. I hate money. I hate corporations. I hate the government. I hate having to buy things in order to exist. I hate having my time delegated to being productive so that someone else can profit from my labor. I hate paperwork. I hate commercials and advertisements. I hate that creative people get sucked into marketing for corporate interests rather than producing their own art. I hate lobbyists. I hate insurance. I hate predictability (except that I might hate all of the things listed here – that kind of predictability is OK with me). I hate the commodification of daily life. I have specialization. I hate the idea of doing the same thing every single day, for eight hours a day, and then catching my breath on the weekend so I can do it again the next week. I hate how fucked up the world is, and the simple fact that it will continue to get more fucked up because every person in society is trapped within the strictures outlined above.
But most of all, I fucking hate suburbia.

You hate suburbia, you’ll hate city life. Coming from the city, it’s no different. I hate the fact we need paper to buy even the most basic things to survive. People have died in the name of paper we call money. We have to do tricks and demonstrate ourselves basically buy doing tricks to some fucking top asshole so he or she can give us a job. Basically we have to sell ourselves (time) either by work or just looking for someone. If you think about it, we are all prostitutes to each other. I really don’t find any motivation in being a part of society. Why should I contribute to a thankless society that just takes? Maybe we are too smart or stupid. Most of the most brilliant people in history have killed themselves, it makes me wonder if they had the right idea. Life isn’t worth living because we made it not worth while.
missed you orangish 🙂
I think a lot of people feel like this sometimes. It’s not all that bad.
It is all that bad. To quote the song, “Little Boxes,” by Malvina Reynolds…
“…And the people in the houses
All went to the university,
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same,
And there’s doctors and lawyers,
And business executives,
And they’re all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same…”
I don’t want to contribute to a society that’s degrading the biosphere to maintain the system Malvina described. 😛 I refuse to have kids or get married, and I think that’s the only rational choice one can make. Suicide’s just one way to say, “Fuck you!” to civilization.
Hi dere sophie =D
I hate wasting time and energy on hate … the activity of hate has no positive or appreciative outcome … it’s not even entertaining … it’s simply too much work to “hate” … and to do all that work with no payoff …
circumvention dawg
