Searching for victimhood
Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 12:50 AM by ZombyWoof
Maybe I am not trying hard enough. You see, I want to be a victim. Or perhaps just a tad oppressed. Hell, I will even settle for being offended. But that takes work, and I am lazy.

I will admit some of the rank stupidity in the Spain threads pisses me off, but being pissed off is just not as satisfying as being a victim.

Of course, if I make it to victimhood, I am going for the gold. I am going for full-blooded martyrdom. You ain't shit in this world until you become a martyr. Especially if it comes as a result of perceived offenses and slights to your opinions. It's the American Way!

:applepie: :victimhood: : offendedhuffiness:

Another damn problem: I am capable of making decisions for myself, and see no need to petition any of you for advice on how to achieve victim status. But maybe if I moan about none of you helping me with useless advice, I can claim victimhood status, and make all of you unwitting accomplices in my Life's Dream.

Suckers.

3. Isn't it easier just to blow the idiots off?
Fuck 'em. Don't give them the pleasure of your offense.

10. Victimhood is a rather loaded phrase.
Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 01:09 AM by The Whiskey Priest
A quick goggle brought results relating "Victimhood" being used as a pejorative qualifier for feminine, black, Jewish, Palestine, Gun Control cause. I stopped after the first two pages.

Victims do exist. Victimhood, implies a life long and unreasonable obsession with being a victim. Usually used by those who would stand in opposition to causes that are truly trying to overcome oppression.

I know that is not what you meant by this post. More information than is required. I plead new comer.

11. I am a victim-maker, but do not yet have the required
credits to make a martyr. I have my undergrad in pissing off the potential victim.

I am working on my thesis. Please help me by letting me know how I may oppress and offend you.

Sincerely,

Huffy sucker
