| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02  | quote: The norm is to be abnormal. I've met more strugglers than I have people who have happy life stories. I once talked to a 13 year old girl who was raped by her foster dad, after she escaped the grasp of her coke-addict mother; a 15 year old boy who lived with his tight-leather, halter-top grandmother because he watched his parents get murdered in their living room over a bad drug deal; a 33 year old mother of three holding a gun in her hand because she couldn't live with herself after selling her body to feed her kids... And those are all true stories. They are all people I know or have known. I'd hate to say that this is life, but it sure does seem that way. It would be great if "life" was happy, not necessarily normal.

| Psychopath Registered: Nov. 01 | quote: I think that people can have a life changing moment even if their life is already going fine. Joey--I know a girl who was repeatedly molested by her adoptive father and still turned out pretty well. Everybody has a story, it's true; but I hate it when people blame their life's history for their present state. It's all in the way you choose to live. Now that I think about it, my life altering experience was when I first decided to smile at the frowns that passed me on the streets. I haven't stopped smiling since. *****************************  Yes, the WOW was MS-Painted on | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | I used to be a real smartass. Like in the street I would talk shit about big kids walking by. I used to get into alot of fights. Then last year I went to the movie theather with my new friends. It was going good untill I saw this kid I REALLY hate. I thought I should fight him because of what he had stolen from me and other shit. So, I talked shit to his face and then he started to push me. So I made a tight fist and swung. To bad I missed his face. Then this huge black kid is pushing me against this car. So, this kid breaks it up and I go back for more. I go to hit him and BAM! He swings like a monkey and connects with my nose.I Instantly start to bleed. My nose got so fucked up! Then I had to go home and try to explain that I fell. They did'nt belive me I had to tell the truth. They had to drive me to the hospital at 1 am and I came home at 3am. It costed my dad like 600 dollars(no insurance). That was the biggest mistake I have ever made! I did'nt hang out with those friends for nearly a year because I was scared of that kid. I learned to not be a smartass because even a moron can take a lucky swing and hurt you alot. But, mabey if it did'nt happen the guy I was being a smartass to would have a gun. I saw that kid a few weeks ago. My heart was racing. I wanted him dead. I just wanted to kill him right there. I just wanted to get this past me and go on with my life. But, I sat there. And he left two minutes later. Now hes in some group home. It made me relize to move on. Hes a worthless animal. I have my whole life ahead and I should'nt stay home because of him. He will be getting banged in the ass in prison while I'm going to college and living my life. I have never talked about this and how I feel until now. That has changed me. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01 | i have mentioned this event before, but it was def. the death of my brother. i was 9. he was 22. he was killed at a halloween party when a fight got out of hand. everyone was trashed & got carried away. that is probably the reason why i decided to become straight - edge. too afraid of what could happen.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00 | Reading these posts makes me think of some good ol' canned laughs. Anyways, my little experience is in some small way indirectly linked to the show..I was driving up to college for the start of spring semester. I was completely addicted to O&A so I didn't leave until around 3:00, so I could catch as much of the show as possible before I lost the signal. I normally would have left around 10 or 11. It was about a 6 hour drive which would have gotten me there around 4 or 5. Instead, I was on on the road at about 8, when a huge snowstorm hit Syracuse. I try to pass a truck, skid on some ice, spin around a few times, and total my car. What sucked even more though was I was going back to school so I had all my stuff in the car - TV, monitor, playstation, camcorder, etc. which was also totaled. Insurance covered it, but I also lost some priceless camcorder tapes from college. I got a few stitches in my head, seatbelt burn, nothing major..then the next day some asshole cop that wasn't even there gives me a ticket. I still remember the little things.. it was January 21,2000.. Opie's sister just gave birth and Ant was inquiring what position she was in at conception..then I think there was a Celine Dion cameltoe bit, and the Tyson-Princess Diana bit. That's when I lost the signal. I had on Ministry Filth Pig CD at the time of the accident. Every time i listen to it now i think of that night. I wouldn't say it really altered my life per se, but that was just the beginning of the most shitty year of my life (long[er] story). Also I do try to avoid driving on highways at night..and every time I do drive at all it's always in the back of my head..it'd probably be better off in the front though since I've had 3 (not as serious) accidents since then. (but only 1 was my fault!) | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02 | quote: Unfortunately every decision and every little speck of time in your life molds the person you are today. I'm sure you didn't mean it this way, but people who have had such things happen to them are affected in ways people who haven't been can't possibly understand. I hate it when those people say that those people should just "get over it" and move forward. Unless you've been in that place, you don't understand how hard that is. The key here is empathy. I'm not condoning people who whine about their pasts, but to honestly believe that a woman can be raped and then just one day just get over it is absurd. If this woman was sitting at the table next to you in a restaurant and was triggered into an anxiety attack by the knife sitting at the table are you going to tell her to sit down and shut the fuck up so you can finish your dessert? I don't think that very many victims "blame" their present state on their past. I believe they realize it has a lot to do with who they are, and they need to learn to live with it. Yeah, the event may have been ten years ago, or thirty, but such victims carry it with them. It's accepting that you are afraid to walk down a dark street alone because of what happened. It's getting over the fear of the parking garage. It's learning to trust people all over again. So, don't take the stand that victims are just playing victims.

| Psychopath Registered: Nov. 00 | The death of my father. Being the youngest of four children, I was the only one still home when he and my mom needed help. So I stayed (and. boy, isn't THAT a fucking babe-magnet). Eventually, he deteriorated, ended up in 4 different hospitals over 3 months (the 3 worst months of my life) and then died. Not only did I lose someone who was, in a lot of ways, one of my best friends, but now I face a mind-numbing sense of "NOW what do I do?". I never realized how much of my time was taken up by taking care of him until I had a ton of free time on my hands (fortunately, my Mom is more self-sufficient even if she still needs my help). On an UP note, it was during this time that I would catch the first two hours of O&A when driving every day from the hospital to work (4-midnight, boy, did that suck). After every settled down, I let them know how much I appreciated them for making me laugh during what was truly a hellacious time. Wow...that was heavy. I need to go back to SU and be nasty.

I am talking about the people who commit suicide or become a murderer or a rapist, just because they had a difficult life.

| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 01 | First Off I know I use this all the time but the most life-changing thing for me was my enlisting in the Marine Corps. Before I enlisted I wasn't a popular guy in high school, in fact most people looked down upon me for many different reasons, some my fault, but most not mine. I was the butt of a lot of failure in life type jokes and was profiled as a "bad kid" to some. But that all changed the day I departed for Parris Island last June. I left as what I was, yet on September 13th I was reborn. I was reborn a United States Marine, and for those of you who aren't a Marine or don't know any, you might notunderstnad what that means to us. I came back home with my head up, shoulders back, eyes glaring. Not to mention because of Sept 11th, my mouth watering for some action! I belive I am a better man because of the Marine Corps. I went from a nobody juvienile kid, to a locked on, hard charging Man....a Lance Corporal of Marines! And on another note, my time WILL come for me to get some payback for 9/11 and to test myself and trust me I will definately not miss a shot. Godspeed and take care. "Born to fight, Trained to kill, Ready to Die, But never will!!!" "It's Gods job to forgive Osama Bin Laden, It's the Marine Corps job to arrange the meeting!!" | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Jan. 01 | My most life altering experience was in high school (there were two of them). I played football on the Varsity team. There were a couple of scouts looking at me because I was All-State and ran the 40-yard dash in 4.7 seconds. Well I had 2 touchdowns and 168 yards in the 3rd quarter. I got the handoff and was hit about 10 yards down field by 3 guys who landed on me tearing my ACL & MCL on my right knee and my ACL on my left knee. After that it was surgery after surgery to help me walk again. So instead of going to college with a free ride I had to pay to go to Community college and get the worst education possible. The 2nd was when my daughter was born when I was 16.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Apr. 01 | quote:Really busting apart those stereotypes, ehh pal? :) Mine was about nine years ago. I was 18 years old and in a deep deep depression and wanted nothing more than to end my miserable pathetic life. One day, I just decided "today is going to be the day". I quit my job, walked out and went to a nearby overpass. I stood there for a few hours trying to build the courage to jump and end it all, but I just couldn't do it. I went home and crawled back into my shell for a few more weeks, and eventually things in my life started getting better little by little. I found a new job, went back to college after dropping out in my first semester, and gained some confidence to start going out with girls again. Sure, I've had little mini-depressions since then, but that moment definitely was a turning point in my life.  | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Dec. 00 | How do I begin this? Even though I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth. My mom pronounced my biological father dead and remarried money – lots of it. I was raised with everything a spoiled rotten brat could want. Due to my controlling adoptive father’s nature I learned that people are only as valuable to you by what they can provide. They are like wells, once you used them up, get rid of them and find/buy someone else. The only thing my father taught me – money solves all problems. I became sexual active at 13 years old and I dearly loved having sex with a multitude of women, my over active sex drive was always satisfied. I was very attracted to other people’s wives and girlfriends due to the idea that they could leave when I was finished. This nearly killed me 4 times and I was hunted by 10 jealous husband/boyfriend throughout 23 states. The lessons learned here was always keep your bags packed, and never pack more than you can carry. I was probably the biggest asshole around. I used my looks to get what money couldn’t buy and I destroyed probably 200 solid happy relationships. My average relationship was two weeks with the longest one lasting only one month. Even after jail and rehab and college I remained a constant nightmare for those with stable relationships. By my mid-twenties I felt I had to stop this, I began isolating myself and sticking to my studies and I was still only one step away from running again. The lesson learned here was when you are alone you having no one to blame but yourself. But none of this changed my life or altered it in anyway. I was still very comfortable being an asshole. The alteration of this path happened two years ago when I met my wife the funny thing was we weren’t even going to have a relationship and she did something that no other woman had done before. She looked me square in the face and told me that she liked me just the way I am and don’t change. From that moment on everything has changed.

| Hanger-On Registered: Oct. 01 | lol Well, I maybe a n00b, but I think I have got the weirdest one so far. The most lifechanging experience I had was seeing my father in a picture in drag for the first time. He/she is a fullblown 'tranny' now. YAY! I haven't had sex with a chick since. (or a guy Tools!) Another life changing experience was when he moved out on us. It was one of the best days of my life. *edit*: awesome sig cue...lol This message was edited by Old Dirty Sanchez on 3-27-02 @ 10:55 AM | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Mar. 02 | Mine was just a few months ago when I watched my grandfater die. I haven't been the same since. He had a heart attack and as I was trying to help him he burned my arm really bad with his cigar. I have a bad scar now that never lets me forget that awful day. He and I were very close and after he died I withdrew from just about everyone. I broke up with my boyfriend and really haven't dated much since. I'm scared I won't be able to let myself get close to anyone ever again. Thank you Freddy! | ||||

It was the first time I experienced that intense sense of loss, and it totally changed me. It made me look at life for what it is and really come to respect it. Now I try to just have fun and be as wild as I can be. Who cares what other people say??? I am having fun while I am still young and healthy. #2: When Mr. Jim Norton grabbed my ass.

| Psychopath Registered: Mar. 02 | When I was in seventh grad I went sking(sp). On the last run of the day I decided to cut through this path in the woods. There was also someone coming through from the other end. I swerved to avoid him. I made it almost completely but the tip of my ski caught a huge tree. I wrapped my leg around the tree. I broke it less than an inch from my kneecap. The kid then left and I was left lying there for almost an hour. My leg was bent the wrong way at almsot a 90 degree angle. This happened on Jan 6th. I came back to school with 2 weeks left in the year. I was in a cast from my toes to my hip. I couldn't get out of bed for 3 months. And by the way this happened on a bunny hill. How embarrasing is that? | ||||
