1. Selective Sympathy(You're not alone, Shadow0b!)
This has gotta be one heck of a pet peeve. Why do some people get more sympathy than others? We all need a good dose of help for our problems. I'm not religious, but I believe "We are all equal under the eyes of God," just cut out the part about God. So why? Here is an example. There are two people at my school, a girl with cancer of the blood, and a boy who can't walk and has a possible brain tumour that makes him cross-eyed sometimes. I don't know what the big deal is, but the boy gets ostracized, but everyone cares about the girl. Now, I care for them equally, but I can't stand it when people treat someone like a disease. Doesn't the boy need some friends too? But anyone who befriends him gets hated on. Why, damn it, why?
Another example is me, and the rest of the social outcasts. Some time ago, someone started a particularly vicious rumour about me. And guess what? My friends believed it! So my most trusted friend, was all like, "Quit stalking me!" and I'm like "So how much time do I spend with you, and how much time not?" and she says, "Half." Well, I told her I spend all my lunch and recess alone, but class time with her, and she's still.... ARGH! On Facebook, my other friend was trying to male me guess who did it. Now, I find that disrespectful to myself, and to the people I suspect. So I said no. Then she started flaming me and all, and I just continued to backlash her but you should never underestimate stupidity- She won. I got a message the next day from somebody saying, "I'm not talking to you. Forever!" So I go back to school, and whoop da flippin' do, "It's your fault."
Okay, so a few months ago, with the mental strain of **** and all, and because I mature mentally far beyond my age for some reason, I became pretty orientation confused. I talked to people about it because I was nervous about being bullied, and they said "Tell your friends. If they're your real friends, they'll accept you." I did what I was told. Weeks later, I was clear about my orientation. I'm straight. But by that time the rumour had spread, and it even reached the kids of the younger grade. No one felt sorry for me, since people said "It's your fault," and all. To stop cyberbullying, I shut down my Facebook. Then my Youtube, Google and Hotmail. dA is the only internet account I have left, and I'll have to shut it down sooner or later.
And now, let's go to one of the people who I liked a lot, Shadow0b. A perfect victim of selective sympathy. She has a pituitary tumour, which is benign, but still causes problems for her. Now, a benign tumour can be just as bad as a malignant one. It can cause enough pain to. First, let's see what's the definition fo benign and malignant.
A benign tumour stays in one place, and can't spread to other parts of the body. HOWEVER, it can cause symptoms just as bad as cancer, and like any tumour it can swell up and worsen symptoms.
A malignant tumour can break off to other parts of the body. It's often associated with more adverse affects, but that isn't true. Benign or malignant, it doesn't matter, they can cause the same pain.
For Shadow0b, from those many books I read I remember a pituitary tumour affects hormones. So when it's a certain time of the month, it's hard for her because..... Girl problems. Her weight can also shift, and she can suffer form fatigue, dizzy spells, weakness, and irregular girl stuff. I'm blanking some stuff out because people from my class may read this. Her pain isn't any less real. Yet, some people say "shut up attention *****" instead of giving her the real support she needs. Shadow0b, if you're reading this, this paragraph and and the first paragraph is aimed for awareness, and for you. You're over 18, right? Okay, so single, no friends, ass of a mother who has trapped you, that's pretty terrible. Girl, please, if you're 18 you should have the rights of an adult. You need to get help. If your mother refuses it, then call the police. And, smile. If you're getting bullied, people are trying to kill you form the inside. If you're happy, they'll be irritated. May not seem a good idea for them to be irritated at first, but in the end it's amusing. Secretly laugh at heartless people and think how much of a unique person you are.
2. Discrimination
ESPECIALLY against the LGBT community. You know the girl who told me to quit slaking her? Well, actually I forgive her. I think she must've been under some kind of pressure to believe such a rumour. Because she doesn't like seeing people discriminated. For the sake of easiness without mentioning a real name, I'll code her as Awesome Girl. Awesome Girl has a friend, which I'll call Girl A. Girl A has a brother who is part of the LGBT community, and I'll call him Boy A. One day, Boy A was talking to Awesome Girls' older sister, and somebody pushed him in front of a bus and.... It wasn't very pretty. Awesome Girl heard of it, and came to school in tears. I don't know HOW she managed to sing in the school choir that day. Anyways, I learnt Boy A is in Year 12, and he's 19 because he had to repeat a year. Not because he didn't pass tests and all, but because he was brave enough to come out as LGBT and then had to repeat a year to learn "Being LGBT is wrong!" Now that is what gets me all the time I think about it. Why are people discriminated because they're a bit different? Boy A was brave enough to be in a relationship with another boy, and I could've sworn he was even proud to be different. He needs respect, and he most certainly did not deserve to die! How many people have you seen who have the courage to be different? You know, I'm a soft atheist so I have nothing against Christians, I actually respect them because once one of them said to me after some selective sympathy shiz happened, "We're all equal under the eyes of God." Yes, in the first paragraph that's where I got that quote from. But some Christians can be slightly hypocritical. "We're all equal under the eyes of God," then when they meet an LGBT person, they say "Burn in hell!" Somebody at my tutor actually said that to me once. I hope this doesn't offend anyone.
Rest in peace, Boy A, and may you find resort if there is an afterlife or a reincarnation, or a heaven. Heaven will be the best choice.
3. Child Abuse
OH GOD HOW I HATE THIS.
Okay, this is one of the WORST things ever. I'm against child abuse, because my first friend ever, was abused. She was 4 years old. Neglected, dumped on the streets and left to die, until an old lady took her in. There I met her at my preschool, she was so kind and energetic. But the old lady couldn't afford to keep her, and she was adopted by a young couple. Now, I've met her, and her parents aren't nice. My friend still beard the scars of her childhood. Imagine it. Unloved, then a stranger takes you in and you start to see a hope spot, then put up for adoption. You wait so many years, and when you meet your oldest friend, your parents are all like "No. No friends." Come one. Of course she loves her parents, but her scars still restrict her. She has a tinge of resentment.
But hell, I hate my parents. If she met me, she would be mad for not appreciating it. I guess it's just that way.
Anyways, NO CHILD should deserve to grow up lonely and neglected like that. NO CHILD. So why? Why does this happen? The only way to stop it is by awareness. I'd dedicate my life to helping abused children.

Also guys, I can't use MMD anymore. Because my computer detected a virus in something I downloaded, and the whole file's corrupted! I can't use Meta because it crashes my computer, and Audacity has a virus too. NUUUUUU! Also, I downloaded and played Slender and Yume Nikki and got busted, so now I have to delete my games too! OTL.
Anyways, I saw one picture that has inspired me to make something. [link]
When I do get a new account and return to MMD, I'll probably would've forgotten all my skills. When I do come back, I'll start on a high school drama thing! Just more serious. It'll be dedicated to a lot of people. Humour to Kaedex503, drama for chocolato-chan, and darkness for Shadow0b, and the overall thing for my relatives, and one of my best watchers, TheSSSTeam. See ya later guys!
