Just post whatever comes to mind.
Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

That he does. You can see (well, hear) him in action on the Penny Arcade Dungeons And Dragons Podcast and its live shows, which are all on YouTube (the live shows, not the podcasts themselves). While I myself haven't really gotten into the podcasts, the live shows are fantastic (especially if you know some of the events of the podcasts).
"We're home, Chewie."... Anyway, why do I consider South Africa to be the worst country ever? Because South Africa's current president is an imbecile (in my opinion), because the rising prices (milk and bread especially - in my home town it's way more expensive than R20) and because just about everybody in South Africa don't care much about other people.
...
I guess this is gonna be my final post in this thread for a long, long, long, long, LONG time...

(This post will probably reveal the truth.)First of all, I apologise for pressing your Beserk Button - it was not at all intended, I believe. I hope that you at least read this, and that things improve greatly for you.
On the problems that you cite:
I won't comment on the president, I don't think; politics is not my favourite area, I'll confess. For what it's worth, other countries have had leaders that they might have preferred that they not had, and I don't think that an undesired president necessarily (or even entirely in this case) makes a country a terrible place to live.
As to bread and milk, do you mean R20 together or each? If the latter, then that surprises me - perhaps it varies by region, as bread, at least, can be had for R8-10 around here, as I recall. Of course, to some degree price increases are likely related to the overall (that is to say, not just in South Africa), as well as simple inflation, which is a matter that seems all too common under capitalism. (I don't mean to imply support for other forms of economy; they may have their own issues which are likely irrelevant here.)
As to people not caring, I think that that varies significantly, and not just in South Africa.
\*thinks for a moment*
For what it's worth, I'm not trying to say that you shouldn't feel as you do: I don't know much about the specifics of what you're going through, or where in the country you are. I suppose that I'm trying to offer an alternative perspective in the hopes that it might help a little.
However, I suppose that this isn't a thread for discussion, so let me post a random thought: Does this being my random thought imply that actively attempting to find a random thought for the purposes of posting is easy, or that it's not?

My Games & WritingConsider this: the average human has less than two feet.
This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...Well yeah. :o So long as there's even one person with less than two feet, the average will always be below 2. :o
Unless there's someone with more than two feet.
ᐅᖃᐅᓯᖅ ᐊᑕᐅᓯᖅ ᓈᒻᒪᔪᐃᑦᑐᖅI have a third foot. I won't say where.
I totally just google'd 'person with three feet'.
Only one came up. It looked fake.
And apparently a 3 feet, 11 inch tall man was suspected for murder last February of 2011.
I'm disappointed,internet.
