Day 1 trying to be a better person

It is about 9:10 in the morning. I was making quite a fool of myself in the blog section last night and I'd like to apologize. I was being cranky and completely immature. After a good nights sleep of 5 hours that were on a couch, I have gone through a lot already to decide if I can actually become a better person or not

Last night, my room mate had been wanting to smoke weed. Since he was my room mate, I thought I should be a nice guy and help him out. I start the joint, then I let him hit it next. According to smoker's ettiquite, it is courtesy to take 2 hits before passing the joint to the next person. My room mate took 6. I told him politely though that it is courtesy to pass it on after a couple puffs and not hog it like a dick.

After we finished smoking the joint, I went back into my room with him expecting to go to sleep in a little bit. My room mate started breaking down. He was calling people to comfort him and tell him everything was going to be alright (basically he had an irrational fear of being high his first time).

I quietly stayed in the background while over the course of the next 3 hours, about 7 people came into my room to comfort him. I ended up going downstairs and sleeping on the couch.

Now it is the morning and I have to deal with this piece of shit again. For the sake of being a better person though, I am NOT going to say anything negative about this no matter how badly pissed off I was. I will also NOT say any sarcastic comments that is also insulting at the same time.

Don't smoke people out for the first time if you're going to get upset when they freak out.

I'm still trying to decide, after all these blogs, if StateofReverie is a very good troll, or actually just has a huge ego and thinks he's the most important person in the world
Wouldn't be surprised if he's a single child

but yeah man everyone takes getting high differently the first time, you can't get too mad at him for freaking out, or not knowing proper etiquette.
Just break the rules, and you see the truth.

What If i just have a very big ego that makes me a troll? Just get rid of the or situation entirely



I dont think the riding a bicycle reference is a fair adjustment. Its more like I give the guy a bicycle with training wheels. I tell him I will help him out and be there for him if he falls off of his bike, which has training wheela on it.

He then says fuck you and takes MY bicycle, with no training wheels and attempts to ride my bike without hands. All the while I am saying stop stop stop this is not good im trying ti help you out. He then crashes and enda up breaking his legs. Then at the hospital he keeps asking me ehy did you let me do this? Why did you let mr do this?

Is it particularly bad that I have a high self-esteem for myself?

No. You need to understand the difference between pretentious and having high self-esteem. Of course you already know the difference and choose to write with the former.

Bazing! On a related note, I am reminded of an instance my freshman year of college in which myself and about 12 other people smoked a gravity bong in a friends dorm room. A particularly attractive girl took a monster hit, and proceded to slow motion drop to the ground, going from standing to curled in a ball on the floor in about 3 minutes. While she slowly dropped she kept saying "I think I'm dying, I think I'm dying." Quite the spectacle.

....wait. So your saying Im trying to impress people with things that are greatly exaggerated? I had to look pretentious up (nice vocab im impressed) because I didn't know what it meant.

Im sorry you think that way. I have only high regards for you. You brought insightful comments into the TSL casts. I watched all of the VODS in my spair time.

edit:

Honestly the way you write is very stiff and I also get a very stuck-up feeling from reading your blogs -- not to mention you begin virtually every sentence with "I" and you seem to blog about very mundane stuff while thinking we should all care very deeply.

I like your blogs. It makes me feel better knowing that dickish 18 year olds don't have friends and spend their time online instead of making friends and meeting girls. Sometimes, there is justice.

It sounds like you told him to not take so many hits in a row after he took them, and not before. No matter how polite you were in saying so, doing it after the fact creates a negative vibe (ohh, sorry.... >_>) which can be dangerous for first time tokers. And then you get angry at his behavior afterward when he has a negative experience. It sounds like he had to call others for comfort because you weren't interested in comforting him after, perhaps inadvertently, festering a negative experience.

You should be more considerate of first timers in the future. Since it was only the two of you smoking, you should have been more focused on him having a good experience than irritated about him using up too much of your weed. That was the real dick move. You should be clear while he is still clear-minded so that your meanings are not misconstrued.

I'm confused

You didn't tell him to take it easy his first time before giving him a joint? You just said "here" and then told him not to be a dick and hog it? WTF?

You really have to be careful with newbies and drugs dude.

You letting someone take 6 hits for their first time was the jerkest thing you could do. Unless you smoke shit. Which I doubt you do, I bet you'll tell me you smoke gold.

To be clear there were three of us, I was going to smoke with someone else but I saw my room mate outside and I called him over because he asked me a couple nights earlier to smoke out of my vape and I said no.

Really though, I did strike out and I think it was partially my fault that he had a bad high because of the way I acted. I feel some remorse for it and the fact that I was that pissed off was not a good thing. I got a lot of spankings when I was a child. When my mom needed to spank me and her hands hurt, she started to use yard sticks. On bare hands, it kind of hurts, but thats not important.

I was constantly rebellious as a youth. I also am not close to any of my family members.
