There's a guy in my class who is driving me absolutely CRAZY! Please say nice things to me...

[Aristus]

:mad::grr::nuke:

And I hate to say it, but he's a leftie. But he's SO far left, he's basically an anarchist. Thinks President Obama is exactly the same as B*sh. Says I'm guilty of knowingly abetting torture because I voted for Obama, and the President is not prosecuting the torturers. And how would I feel if Obama was torturing my wife, would it be all right then? That kind of crap. He is an insanely negative person who pisses all over everyone he comes into contact with. He is a former New Yorker who was a paramedic at the World Trade Center site on September 11th. He saw some crazy and awful shit, but he's turned it into this clownish vaudeville act where he's superior to everybody who wasn't there, and we can't possibly understand his pain.

I've been a happy person for a long time now, after having ditch my depressed, negative persona as a bad job. I try not to let him get to me, and ignore him most of the time. But he's really harshing my buzz and I'm tired of it.

Rant over...

Thanks for listening... :hug:

[Strong Atheist]

1. Sorry about that...

:pals:

Tell him anarchy does not work in IRL, and only immature people think it can on a large scale. I thought so when I was young and stupid...

[Aristus]

3. Thanks. I needed that.

:pals:

2. You're good enough, smart enough and dammit people like you.

As for this asshole, there's no communicating with people like that. They're destined to die lonely and bitter. :)

[Aristus]

4. I just don't want him taking me along for the ride.

Lonely and bitter is not how I roll...

[GOPisEvil]

5. That's the thing, he'll do it if you let him.

But you've got more to life than him. :thumbsup:

[Aristus]

7. He's what happens when smart and crazy mix. (You can't be dumb and get into the P.A. program...)

Sometimes he'll act all normal and everything; he even offered me a very nice, sincere condolence when my Dad died. But then he'll whip around on you suddenly, and it'll be like: " So how would you feel if Obama was torturing your WIFE, man? Huh? HUH? How would you feel? Huh?" He catches me off guard when I'm not fully prepared to ignore him. :grr:

You're the greatest, GOPisEvil, ole buddy! B-) :thumbsup:

[GOPisEvil]

9. "How would I feel if Obama were toturing my wife?"

Just slightly worse than I feel while having this discussion with you. :)

[Haole Girl]

6. Just start quoting Shakespeare!

You know you are smarter.. and more compassionate than that a$$. Probably best to just leave him "on ignore." ;-) :hug:

[Aristus]

8. I just thought of a quote: "I wonder that you would still be talking, sir. Nobody marks you."

Great suggestion, HG! Thanks! :hug:

10. Hi Aristus.

"he's SO far left"

Well Left or right,extremists are toxic persons for everybody else.I'm

so sorry that you have to endure someone like that.:hug:


P.S What are you studying ? (Or teaching?)

[Aristus]

13. I'm studying to be a Physician Assistant. Three more weeks of Didactic year.

I can't wait to be done. Next up is Clinical Year. I know I'll like that one a lot better...

[TK421]

11. kill him....

do it for me

[Rhythm]

12. Thank you for not killing him...... yet.

Although in a few states, 'he needed killing' would make it a justifiable homicide.

:hug:

14. It's easy to be a contrarian

that way you don't ever have to actually stand for anything


if you want to be legitimate if you want to be taken seriously you have to hang up a shingle. You have to establish an address-I don't want to make this comparison but the deal with alQaeda is that they won't step up and get on par with the nation units they confront.

F him he is a joke.

His one moment in the sun...

[sarge43]

16. You needed to vent, God knows. That's like someone screaming continually in your ear

which is essentially what he's doing. Sounds like post trauma. He can't remember what he experienced without reliving it.

So ....

First, you take care of yourself first. If he's really getting to you, tell him to leave you alone and stand fast on it. We all have our demons; you don't need his, too.

Next, if you're inclined, tell him he needs help and ranting at everyone isn't it. If he does realize he's wounded and goes for qualified help, then and only then, you'll listen. But that's your call and his.

Some people are flat out self destructive and being in their ZTD won't help them or you.

:hug:

17. Have him disqualified for being emotionally compromised
