i seem to be surrounded by people that like to yack on about their own problems and not often do they stop to consider that the world continues to move w/ or w/out them. well, i'm exaggerating because there are probably just two or three people that i know. yeah, three. i can see them now. sitting there yacking about their "problem." not that it isn't a real "problem," but is it really a problem if they aren't trying to solve it?
our conversations are dominated by their pressing matters: being ignored by someone they like, work issues, boss issues. whatever. i'm always the one that says: "well, you know that maybe he's busy" or "well, then just forget about him." they say, "ugh, just let me vent." but they don't listen, they keep bringing the same shit over and over again, feeling sorry for themselves in their tiny little world.
shit, i wish they'd realize that there is nothing wrong with other people, they are not the ones that are making you miserable, you are making your mother fucking self miserable. see, it works like this: if they're messing with your head, let them know that they should stop. "STOP FUCKING WITH ME." let them know, maybe not in those words, but if you feel a quiet animosity from your co-workers or you don't like the way you are treated by your boyfriend, then stop bitching about it and grow some balls (or ovaries) and talk to them. IF NOT, and the person is just a dumbass that should be forced into the vagina from whence it came, CUT them out, talk to THEIR supervisor, or if they're really that bad, QUIT.
people act like they're victims of their god damn existence and it's lame. there is a difference between "venting" and talking about the same shit, over and over and over again. now here i've suddenly driven myself into a corner and now i realize that if they're really bothering me, i should let them know. the other day, as my friend was talking to me and wouldn't shut the fuck up telling me a boring story about how he went out with the this guy who he keeps obsessing about, even though this guy is always flaking on him, i told him he was boring me and that he talked too much and didn't let ME say anything about MY day and MY shit. see, my life IS interesting, WAY more interesting than some boring ass work drama, but not a lot of people take time to find that out because they're too busy yapping about their own self-absorbed existence.

on the flip side, you can always win a person over by asking them questions about themselves.
