When you do something for someone and they say "thanks" and smile, you feel good. When you say "no problem" and smile back, they feel better too. Maybe it just doesn't impact you as much or maybe you are too young/callous/old/independent/emo/whatever, but it makes me happy. it impacts on me a lot actually because so many idiots were brought up with this idea so strongly, anyone who doesn't live up to their individual standards is seen to be offensive, rude, miserable etc. i have experienced SO SO many times people getting offended because i didnt match their "number of polite spoken words" . its PATHETIC. there are maybe 20 staff on where i work, and during a 12 hour shift there is so much needless nonsesense that people get upset about if you dont adhear with it: passing someone in a narrow corridor (this doesnt warrant a fucking conversation and these stupid "jokes" that people make ceaselessly) . you know there is at least 1 person where i work who might say "hello" to me.....14 times in 1 day????????????? people are groomed to be offended by "naughty words" people are also groomed to say and think certain things mindlessly, and they are groomed to feel upset and offended when certain idiot expectations are not conformed to | ||

This is common knowledge, and simply because you disagree with it doesn't change the world around you. People expect to be thanked for acts of generosity, and know to say that it was a good act by saying "no problem" or "you're welcome." This is normal society. People with any sense of decency do this, not only because they are "forced to" by the rules of social interaction, but because they have the decency to do so. If people were given an option to say thank you, many would still say it (even though in reality, it still is an option). You clearly wouldn't. You need to grow up. End of story. | ||

I guess sex is a given.. but for others, I love winning in board games purely because of luck, then say it was because of my superior skillz. Also staying up really late with friends to that point where Everything, and i do mean everything, is funny as hell. Just taking a break and sitting in the shade on my deck with a tall glass of Arnold Palmer makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside as well. | ||

Fresh pair of socks with a fresh pair of kicks. Taking a shower after 4-5+ hours of sweating. A female striking up a conversation, giving me the thumbs up for new game I can dabble with. Riding a motorcycle in 80 degree weather. Riding a dirtbike over jumps and other obstacles. Being able to stay up on a wakeboard for 40-50 yards. Realizing its 4:17am at the casino drunk as fuck and knowing I haven't smoked any weed in 6+ hours. Waking up around 6-7am and starting the day off. Working-out for several hours. Throwing the pig-skin. Watching any sport in HD. Canoeing or Rowing my arms off. Hrmm I might have more but atm I need to get to work.... SC Related: Being able to pull off 110 apm on macro gives me a high. I'm tired of seeing my micro apm at 120+ and my macro at 50 . | ||

-Ultimate Frisbee, comeback wins or wins on universe point or just plain out playing hard and knowing that I left everything on the field. -Poker winning a huge pot all-in, making a ridiculous call, or getting an outrageous bluff to stick. -Saving a life or just knowing that you made a huge difference in someone's life. | ||

What the fuck are you even talking about? | ||

Listening to some songs gets me in a similar state of mind. Making people laugh, making my girlfriend smile, seeing my girlfriend smile.
