To my friend, the sailor:
Would it be unfair of me to say you are running away from life? Would I be detestable to accuse you of weakness, in being unable to face up to your own issues where you stand, on the ground? Why must you always pretend you don't care?
Is the reason you feel at home on the sea because it is unstable? Is there a kindred spirit with the boat? Why are you afraid of what lies in the ports, and on the land? Why do you stare at the sea and at the stars, and at the horizon, and never inside, where it matters?
Why is denial desirable?

To my friend, the sloth:
You are sitting still, again. I see atrophy. Your motivation has gone, and with it your personality, your vibrancy, your sociability. It is easier for you to sit, and stare, than to engage.
I can only presume it is a rut, and one you would like to get out of, but when you rid yourself of motivation, the irony is that you can no longer motivate yourself to be motivated. The means for return is destroyed by the escape.
Still, you sit, and I hear no words, see no life. Would you were dead, I would not notice.

To my friend, the lost:
An anchor; a rock; a reference point... meaning, the quintessential truth. Wherefore art thou, and so on. You wonder, does anyone wonder as I do? You hope what you see around you are facades, disguising the same turmoil you feel.
Hope: that's what's lacking. Hope and self-belief, and they're mighty fine gold-dust to find in an infinite river. You used to have a rope you could hold onto, and then you saw the frays. You never saw the other ropes.
There is always a rope, if you want one.

To my friend, the obsessed:
Focus is all very well, sure, but that's just crazy. You can't dedicate your life to one thing without going off the rails at some point. Life is about living, and experiencing, and sharing: what a stunted existence to focus.
Life demands focus, but life is wrong; life has always demanded the unnatural. Or is it because you can't face the rest of life, that you deny it, and focus? You stunt your casting of nets, you limit to others focused like yourself. You cease to engage.
Do you miss what you can't have?

To my friend, the emo:
Go to hell. You pretend to be depressed, but you're laughing. You're an inherent lie, part of the great cosmic joke that plagues people with real problems. Emotion is what you crave: the absoloute peaks, the cavernous lows.
You are an experience junkie. You are detestable, because you are ultimately selfish. Your whole life is structured around self, and you cry out "misunderstood", when the one you should be accusing of that misdeed is yourself.
Damn your facsimilical emotionality.
-=-
To my enemy:
I hate you because you hate me. What more reason do I need?
-=-
To my friend, myself:
Do you accuse them of their own problems, or do you imprint your own on their experience?
Is there such a thing as a negative? Is it too romantic to pretend that the only reason we can't be happy is that we don't want to be?
Or is that just pathologically depressive?

This reminded me of a 13 year old girl getting ready to start her first rag.

No, that's NOT the reason.
This blows. Deal with it, or are you a "super Hero" coming to this posters' rescue?
GA-AAAAAAY.

This has "who gives a fuck" written all over it.

So, this isn't a -2 because Draqus took the piss out of you on the MSpaint thread then?
I mean, just because this is the only negative any other person's given it doesn't nessicerly mean that there isn't another motive, eh...?
Cunt.

Hesitate over the +2 because I'm not quite sure it's as good as you can do...

I claim poetic license for "facsilimical". I know it's not a word that's in the dictionary. See http://www.ubersite.com/m/69631 for my creation of the word "jubilants".
The meaning is still clear. That's what matters. You could rip my grammar to shreds in places, but it's intentionally written just so.
