neighbors

they seem to like to make fun I was walking home last night from store they were saying run forest gump run that to me is wrong also kept asking me if I was lost idiots

I had my share of neighbours, like that. One boy kept on asking if I was mentally handicapped, so I just kept on ignoring him. His sister kept saying, "She's not going to talk to you." That happened in 2004 or 2005. I don't want to talk to a kid like that. Even kids should know better, than to ask somebody from the 60s, if they're mentally handicapped.

The world is full of what the world is full of.

Back in the back of time, my schoolmates noticed that I was in certain ways not the same as they were and started working on making life miserable. I have to say I playef along, acing out - at least at the time I figured better they should think what they think than that they should KNOW something that thdey could use. But it was not fun.

You have to try to remember - at least half are poking at you because they are afraid if they don't somebody will poke at THEM. Happened to a guy who it seems liked my sister until liking her became politically incorrect, at which point HE started in.

it is a dog-eat-dog world, and even in a land of plenty there still exist the darwinian drives towards excluding the other [read: different and strange] for fear they will get some of one's own resources. i live in yahooville myself and most of my neighbors act like those barking dogs who yell from cars, "run, forrest, run!"
good fences make for good neighbors.

Those neighbors are mean. What do they get from it, anyway? I've had this fantasy that I will wake up tomorrow and will have really nice neighbors--the kind that like me and my kids, the private, quiet sort of neighbors who mind their own business, but are friendly when need be. But I never seem to luck out. We now have LOUD neighbors--with outdoor parties into the night, lawn mowers and leaf blowers, or the kind who stare when my AS son screams at me.

Well then the point of the movie was obviously lost on them.

Watch the movie (it's one of my favorites). Not only does he marry a pretty girl but he's also a war hero, invented the smiley t-shirt and has so much money in the bank that he doesn't need to work. The world needs more Forrest Gumps.

So, the next time your neighbors use Mr Gump as an insult just remind them of this.

it is a waste of time to reason with people immune to reason, as opposed to brute force. it is like expecting a bear to sqwat on a toilet. there is a time for proust, and a time to skip it.
