Feeling down

edited November 2012 in General Chat
I don't care anymore.

I don't care about anything, about getting ReBoot back or becoming someone who started something and was well known for their dedication.

As far as I am concerned, let ReBoot rot. No one else cares to remember or want to see it finish anymore why should I?

:mad: Let Spongebob, Regular Show and Johnny Test continue to thrive. Their time will come soon enough.


And everything I like? Who remembers that stuff anyway from the posts I put?


Let everything just be as it is.

    Dude. Its just cartoons.

    I can tell you, I've watched A LOT of cartoons. Many before my time, and as much as I love them, life is imperfect and a lot of good things will end before their time, and other things will end way after.

    Its also business in the end of the day. Merchandising, marketing, all these underlying, and importantly uncontrollable forces ultimately determine the fate of any show no matter how good it is.

    And that applies to anything that is sold as a product, even art, though of course, different media has different target markets and different dynamics.

    Look, I'm getting sidetracked, but the point is, there is alot more out there and just enjoy what is there, and keep an ear out to what new stuff is good as well and enjoy that too. Obsessing and beating yourself up over a damn cartoon is unhealthy, and honestly, pretty freaky. o_0

    Plus nothing is impossible in the long term. Hell, you never know, you might end up forgetting about this sort of thing, then BAM! A reboot/sequel/remake comes out and it might surprise you. (It might even disappoint you, but keeping an open mind might soften that blow a bit (besides nothing can be as bad as Legend of Chun Li NOTHING!!! XD))

    Also, some things NEED to die. Either because it's so horrible it should die in a fire, or because something is so great it should die before it becomes something you'll hate.

    I'm gonna be kinda harsh here. Just an FYI if you're not in the mood for that right now.

    You need to accept that not everyone likes the same things you do. That's just a fact of life. I hardly ever find anyone who likes Enterprise as much as I do. I deal with it. I move on.

    The thing is, this is a TV show you're getting upset over. It's an old TV show. And the chances of old stuff getting resurrected are slim at best. Maybe, instead of getting all depressed over the fact that we didn't support you, you should try looking elsewhere. This is the internet. There's something for everyone here.

    Look - I admire the fact that you tried. You just tried to recruit people to your cause in the wrong place. Try elsewhere - you may have better luck. And if you don't... IT'S A TV SHOW. Move on. Find something else to obsess over. There's plenty of things out there.

    I understand feeling like nobody else cares about something you care about deeply and it's okay to feel down. Just know that things will get better. The wonderful thing is that you have a passion for the show and nobody can take that from you. Please treasure that!

    Things will get better

    No they won't. That's a bunch of boojie boojie bullshit. Things mght be tolerable, but things rarely get better. If you're not already content then good luck getting there.

    Now that's a pessimistic look on things. Things *can* get better, however, you'll have to be open for it, and accept that not everything can go your way.

    If I believed every word you just said, I should just end my life here and now, because I would never get over my depression anyway. I however refuse to believe this bullshit.

    I highly doubt you'd end your life because things are tough. I keep going because I always know there will be bright spots, and cutting my life shorter than nature intends is rather pointless. But to say that things will be permanently better, and continually get better is ridiculous and naive. The plain fact is we live a tortured, horrific existence moving closer and closer to the end of our lives inevitably knowing every day we will someday not exist, and having only the ability to put our fingers in our ears and go nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah NYAH NYAAAAAAHHHHH NOT LISTENING to cope with it.

    I spend every night trying to sleep fending off night terrors, panic attacks, and my blood running cold knowing that I'm moving daily closer to the experience of finality, living the worst form of hell I can imagine. Don't you tell me things get better for the human race. This hell happens to all of us, and none of us can escape it.

    You call that better, because that's what we have to look forward to.

    ummm what is it thats making you suffer? psychological or physiological? < example mental demons or cancer> i have nearly died 7 times in my life and i'm only 23 and i don't even do crazy stuff to get there it just happens. at this point dealing with death has become nothing. i don't even think about it until someone says something about it.

    Psychological. I can't mentally cope with it. I've been a phobia ridden person since I was a child. I used to be unable to go through my house or sit in the backseat of a car without feeling fear that something was going to get me. I was brave in some ways, but in others I was a cripple. Now I've graduated into more mature fears....namely all leading back to death. I take zoloft to regulate it, but it doesn't change my opinion of it all.

    Nothing has every gotten better in my life, as people seem to believe can. I just replaced my old problems with new ones.

    There is no form of afterlife or lack thereof that doesn't drive me into hysterical fear. The idea of a God, Heaven, and angels terrifies me. The idea of no God, no Heaven, and no angels terrifies me. The idea of nothingness terrifies me. The idea of collective consciousness terrifies me. The idea of reincarnation terrifies me. And it's my greatest fear, meaning I live my life moving closer and closer to the thing I'm most afraid of with no control over it and no concept of when I have to face it.

    Better, my ass.

    But in relation to your first post, OP, I fill my life with things to do because I need the distraction. I have a lot of battles with whether or not I should care since eventually I'll be gone and my work will too. The human race could be gone without a trace 2000 years from it's own extinction. Where's my life and work and memory then.

    People have some of the same interests as me, but nobody sees things the way I do or likes the things I like to the extent I do. I'm too eclectic to find good common ground with anyone. And so I end up regretting liking the things I like in the first place.

    Ehhhhnn I wouldn't say that.

    That said, I was just trying to be supportive. The guy is passionate about a cause and that's a great thing. Sorry if it came off as anything but.

    Thank you. I will keep the programs I deem worthy close to my heart and let no one tell me differently.

    I'm sorry to all on this forum thinking I knew what was gold and what was trash. I can't change others opinions and that is the hard truth.

    Passion is a key motivational force

    That plus determination and strive to make a difference.

    that kind of fear is normal and i use to feel that way. i only changed because of my sever obsession with truth with in the bible only to find out most of it was changed,that let to find the real truth delving into jewish faith re-understanding of the new testaments and finding out the sabbath was on saturday...from there i went deeper into the understanding of God and are relation to him, and it just goes further and further from there. at this point i know more of what heaven is like even though i have never been simply from all the research i have done. also there are 7 levels of heaven not just the one. which could mean there are other levels of earth either not yet created or we just haven't been told about yet. finding out what the angels really are and the reason God has catered to us more than any other creation out there. strangely now i'm just terrified of not dying. not from not seeing heaven but seeing everyone i've ever known and loved die while i continue to live. don't get me wrong i'm not suicidal its just something i feel from time to time.

    The less religious key is: Don't worry, be happy.

    Expounding a little more on that, what I mean is that the key to not being scared about the future is to accept that bad things will happen that you cannot change, and if you cannot change them, there's no reason to dwell on them. Focus your energies on things you can do to make life better for yourself and for others.

    I grew up during the Cold War, when there was always a constant threat that the U.S. and U.S.S.R. would just annihilate each other at some point. We had a Doomsday Clock and everything. If you were always worried about that, though, you never got anything done. So most people just went about their lives, and if it all turned out to be a waste when we all died horrifically five minutes later, at least we'd have the satisfaction that we did what we thought was best and right.

    Or you could just go my route and start a skull collection. Then when you wake up every morning, you can literally stare your own mortality in the face before going about your day.

    You know, that actually might be scarier for some people.
