~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Interesting how awful and awesome are antonyms. Similarly, terrific and terrible. Oh, and I have no plans, which has its advantageous in that I'm not committed yet if various things come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I won'tI don't believe this. Shite don't get done by playing nice.And I can say this is untrue. Anyway my way of being less awful will be trying to make it easier on my mom by paying more for things and walking to work if I get the option. It's a start.

Tentacruel Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 "Drink Coffee" Who doesn't? "Stare into the eyes of someone you love for 4 minutes." And this is how restraining orders happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EndUser Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I have an alternative question: Is it better to be "less awful" or "greater"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wahrheit Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I have an alternative question: Is it better to be "less awful" or "greater"?The former. "Drink Coffee" Who doesn't? "Stare into the eyes of someone you love for 4 minutes." And this is how restraining orders happen. Some people. Don't fight the hypothetical, part of it is both of you doing it.

Tourmaline Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 No, I'm not awful. I do know what my own goals are, though they are more long-term than an annual resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King K. Azo Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm not awful. People take advantage of me. They use me, then call me awful when I stand up for myself. For I will grow a spine this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 So, the article seems to me like it is directed towards improving yourself and your relationships. I know that's something I want to do this year. I want to improve myself. I want to take that leap and do what I thought impossible (moving to funking Wisconsin for one), try things I haven't tried. Conquer my fear of heights and flying, so and so forth. As far as being less awful goes: 1.) Be less awful to myself. Less junk food. More exercise. More focus on my personal health. I've neglected myself. And that's awful. 2.) Be less awful to my peers. I'm selfish. I say I'm open minded, and I do attempt to be, but I find that I sometimes don't take things in stride, or I try to make things about me. I want to be a better listener and a better friend. 3.) Be less awful to my family. I feel like me moving away will hurt my family. Mostly my mom. She's going to be alone and I'm scared as hell of that. I want to stay in touch, keep close, and make sure distance doesn't drive us apart. In addition, my relationship with my dad isn't what it could be. It's so bad in fact, that it's caused my brother and I to drift apart. And that's my own fault. I need to fix it. Personal thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusion X. Denver Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 One terrible thing I do is wait on replying to messages. Doesn't matter who you are, I just end up seeing a message, thinking, "I'll respond to them in a bit." And then if I do, it's way later. It's not a good habit and I'm lucky I have forgiving friends who are patient with me. So I will hopefully be much more prompt and dedicated to getting back to someone than I have been.

epicmemesbro Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 One thing I think I should work on is being more assertive. I feel like I've been too generous and passive to the point of being a walking doormat. I think its time for me to put myself in front of others this time. Luckily I already know better than to try to please everyone now, so I should do well in this aspect. One of the few resolutions I've kept was this MGTOW type of deal, and I think I should keep doing that. As for this site, I will try to be alot more active in CC in terms of making and critiquing cards I've also decided to get back into the TGC, my recent attempts resulted in failure mostly but I'll get the hang of it. I should also stop complaining about meta decks... I also decided to try to get to know more people here. I can't think of anything else right now, but if I remember something I'll add it later.

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 This is a good post. More users on this site would be less awful if they made more posts like this post. You are well on the road to being less awful, and I wish you well in your endeavors.I wonder if a little honest criticism would be considered spam.Well here it goes.You gotta stop acting like you are the almighty decider of what's a good and relevant post, it's a pretty arrogant and frustrating thing to do. And please don't be so hypocritical about spam.Maybe it'll help you be a little less awful. Honestly just trying to point out an issue and hope it leads to some good, sorry if it comes off confrontational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
