- crazyjoeSalvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 13:23Selfishness Have you ever thought that someone is/was being selfish? Wrap your mind around this. You most likely noticed this when they didn't do something for YOU, or they didn't ask YOU what YOU wanted to do. Doesn't that by definition make you selfish? Agree/Disagree?
- Clouds in the SkySalvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 13:51Everybody is selfish without doubt. Rarely will you see someone act out of pure generosity.

I have to disagree, its a little thing called manners.

- AvalonerSalvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 15:23The question is, why you should do something for someone, who himself won't do something for you, years back I was nice helped people, like in school telling them the answers or the way to do something and outside helped them too and what was coming back nothing and now I just care for me, sure call me an asshole, but in this life you must be focused on your own it may be something other with a person you love or a real good friend but thats the line, no need to be friendly to 4 hours friends.
- Snuff.Salvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 15:29avaloner: you got's you the best and first point thus-far brought up, and it's true that trust will get you nowhere. But people, for the majority, are decent. And though they won't respond to trust (/pressure) they are appreciate genuity.

- Rocker KidSalvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 22:59I really like to help people in need it makes me feel nice... honestly all I want is if I do somthing nice for them they should be thankful or even help me a little if I need it. But really it rarely happens... I help sombody pick up their books and they completely ignore me and don't look me in the eye... Or somtimes they smile and thank me... Trusting people has always done me wrong. Even if I tell my mom somthing she tells my dad and my sister finds out somhow. So I learnded never to do any shit like that... People constantly tell me their private secrets not stuff like: "I have a big crush on Joey Smith don't tell anybody!" but real secrets. Which I will not be sharing with you I think I may have even said too much... So I guess I am trust-worthy people tell me things when they hardly know me... Odd though I can't find one person to trust with any of my information on Earth... It's terrible... But I do look out for myself and my family...
- longbobSalvaged from archive9 Aug 2006, 02:38I firmly believe in the philosophy of 'it's better to help than hinder' and if I can help someone without any thought of recompense then I will. I suppose that in itself makes me selfish because I want to help :? There's no getting away from it really. And no, I ain't a God bothering, bible bashing, do-gooder. Longbob.
- AvalonerSalvaged from archive9 Aug 2006, 04:20I think helping people creates something devilcircel like, next time they will need help you need to help them again because when you don't do it they will say that you are an asshole and they thougth you were a friend and bla bla, I dunno if sharing real secrets to anyone brings you somewhere people can be very strange, for example my mother keeps on tlaking to my ...embarrasing moments, like when I once cried because I crashed her car to the neigbors and something, while I'm in the next room, I mean wtf, thats not something someone should know, I see I just told it here, but you don't know me personally so I don't care. Other thing with family is that the older Parts always think they could command us around, doing somthing ok, but repeatly doing their stuff sucks, I mean its not ok to wait 2 hours in a car with 30° outside, its freaking hot, or do little things they could do on their own nooo they are to lazy and call you out of your room to do some shit and in the end you don't even get a "thank you" no they will shout at you tzz... In the end my solution is, get a few real good friends and then you are ok, all the others can shut up, when they want something.
- Rocker KidSalvaged from archive9 Aug 2006, 08:46Yeah a few times my mom has called me from the downstairs from my room in the upstairs to come down there and when I get down there she tells me to go back upstairs and get her pillow 'cuz she wanted to nap on the couch (which is gonna give her a fucking back problem anyhow).... I'm like: "Ya know mom you could've told me to get the pillow while I was still upsatirs..." and she told me not to be a brat. Or somtimes she gets angry on how I toss it over the rail at her feet like it's gonna hurt or somthing its a damn pillow... Very stupid.
- MerrillizerSalvaged from archive9 Aug 2006, 09:57Maybe. But the biggest contradiction I see these days is when bought and paid for politicians (usually Christian Right-wingers) tell us we're "fighting for freedom abroad", then when people who may disagree with them go and use those very freedoms and publicly speak out against them, they just go off and label them and slander them. So......."fight for freedom abroad", but then right off those who use the freedoms at home? Hmmmmm. If we cant get it right here, then I believe we should not be policing the world and forcing it on foreign lands.

- Uh ohSalvaged from archive9 Aug 2006, 12:17Selfishness Have you ever thought that someone is/was being selfish? Wrap your mind around this. You most likely noticed this when they didn't do something for YOU, or they didn't ask YOU what YOU wanted to do. Doesn't that by definition make you selfish? Agree/Disagree? maybe, but it's not always they're not doing something for you, selfishness is just when someone does everything for themself without the consideration of others. you wanting a piece of the pie doesn't make you selfish, but if you were both arguing over having the whole pie you'd both be selfish.
