3. I kind of want to throw up, reading it.

It's so pathetic and melodramatic.
Apparently, I was DEEPLY concerned about the Gulf War.
Yeah, right.
Loser.

19. I'm sure you have.

I haven't written poetry since high school for much the same reason. The emotions level off somewhat. Makes for a lousy muse, but one functions much better.

12. I did something pretty cheap here in the Lounge a few weeks back

I put out a call for other Loungers to post their worst bad poetry, but then I chickened out when it was my turn.

In my defense, I could readily argue that it would be impossible for me to pick from such a broad catalog.

6. Hmmm. When my wife gets frustrated with our daughter, I will occasionally say to her...

"Now you know how your mother felt"!! or "You sound just like your mother"

:hide:

Well at least she can then channel her frustration at our daughter towards me!!!

8. ROFL I'm afraid of reading my old journals too

I kept one for more than 10 years, from near the end of college through a chunk of my single life and awful jobs. I remember that I tried to be literary--deep thoughts and observations--and sometimes I succeeded, but most of the time I was complaining about something or other--job, men, relatives, or all of the above concurrently. I know where the box is, but I ain't opening it anytime soon. Wondering if I should burn them before my son gets old enough to know how to read and go snooping around.

13. Yeah, I found an old online journal...

"My life sucks right now. I missed the bus and I had to walk, and then XXX happened and blah blah blah"

I kinda wanted to smack myself. :P

17. Mrs. Carton has told me to burn her journals if she goes before me...

I feel the same way about mine. There is nothing either enlightening, or helpful for posterity in them.

28. At least I've refined my technique and no longer repeat phrases like

"In my heart, I believe," and "No one will ever understand".

30. Re:Diary

I kept a diary as a teen,and most of the details were true,but some were exaggerated.

Anyways,this is how my mom found out I was no longer a virgin,
and the shit hit the fan.

Needless to say I felt violated,and never kept a diary again.

My mom's words were "I felt sick after reading it".

I told her it was her own fault for not respecting my privacy.lol

ANyways,my mom and I are good now,as that was a good 15 yrs ago.

33. It is the worst. Unfortunately, 13 is as much an attitude as an age...

and for some kids, it seems to last a lot longer than a chronological year.
