I'm kind of a Tumblr SJW. I pretend to be more conservative than I am, so my friends don't hate me. Even on Tumblr I'm more resigned than I ought to be.
Aren't social justice warriors supposed to be liberal and not conservative? You're doing it wrong.
 
When I was 11, My friend Robert(13) and I stole $400 from a Mexican restaurant's side room while his mom was picking food we had ordered.

The sideroom was right next to Metal Slug 2/KoF machine.

usually It was locked, but the door was ajar when we walked by it.

We peaked in and there was stack of cash on desk.(Thinking back to it,We most likely stole some poor guys pay for week or two)

Robert told me watch out for anyone outside, grabbed a bit of cash off the top, and then shoved it in his shoe.

We split it 40/60 in his room as we ate tacos

I spent most of it on food and A bike that got stolen a couple days after I got it.


Side note about Robert: He spends most of his time now doing meth and trying to bang HS girls.

Side note about the restaurant:I do still eat there sometimes when I go visit my hometown since it's the only place that's open past 11.
 
My friend hid weed in our drama teacher's car and forgot about it. When our teacher needed to use her car during the field trip, I volunteered to help her with whatever she needed to do. I had just turned 16, and was terrified of my friend or I getting caught, so when my teacher wasn't looking I grabbed the weed (hidden in a film canister under a seat) and tossed it into the garbage can.

he spent $5 on it, so it was probably shit weed
So wait, you guys took pot to school and when you had to find a place to hide it you said, "I know! Let's hide it in a teacher's car!"?

Either you're incredibly stupid or you're a genius. But $5 for weed makes it seem more the former instead of the latter.

The guys who lost the money probably don't work there anymore, but if you feel guilty, then you can always tip a bit extra every time you're there... :)
 
I made a thread about gender, and I liked the posts of one junior member. I messaged her something like, "Hey. I love your posts, and I really hope you don't have to wait too long before being a full member."

She made a polite but insincere reply like, "Yes, I'll probably become a full member in the future. Thanks."

That wouldn't be a problem, right? ...But in the aformentioned thread, she posted something like, "Well, my inbox is no longer creep-free."

I felt so bad about it. I didn't mean to be flirty or harrassing at all, but she took it the wrong way. I didn't want to talk to her about it because she obviously didn't want any more PMs. Now, whenever I see her username I feel guilty and know that one person out there thinks I'm some kind of perverted "nice guy" or a fedoracore creep.

Also, the thread I made was about gender, so I'm worried she might feel like I was "just talk", and didn't really give a shit about gender, seeing as she thought I was harassing her.
Well now this thread is no longer creep free.
 
I'm sure I've said things that seem creepy on GAF. It really doesn't matter, though. Your intent was good.

Be-sides, it was a gender thread. It could have been one of many posters. I mean, it was a gender thread.
 
I have a girlfriend, but we haven't met in person yet. We've been dating for about six months through daily Skype calls, ~40-60 texts a day, and lots of Snapchats.

I've known her for over two years and she really is the most amazing girl I've ever met. Her parents are strict (she's young), so we might not be able to meet up in the very near future, but we will soon. At first her mom thought I was like 30 and some kind of pedophile, but I was able to prove that I'm around her daughter's age by showing my high school diploma and graduation photos
Ah, imaginary, I mean modern relationships.
BTW, you still owe me for that fake diploma and graduation photo.
 
I guess I really want to be well-known on Gaf.

3 of 4 times strangers said comments that indicated I had some kind of reputation, and that just is an amazing feeling. For one of the first times in my life, I feel significant.

Gaf is about the size of a small city, and being (at least mildly) known, is amazing. I never expected anybody to recognize me, but they do.
The nail that sticks out is the one that gets hammered down.
 
I have nobody to really talk too. I'm in my mid 20's and I'm a loser, a dead beat self centered loser. I'm not a neckbeard, I have friends, no I'm worse. I was booted from my home with my parents because I refused to pay rent and treated them like dirt. I refused to get a real job (i worked at Walmart for many years, only overnight though) and treated everyone like they owed me something.

I found a rat-hole apartment and a roommate who I sometimes get high with. For the past 2 1/2 years I've been lieing to my parents about what I'm doing, I tell them I was promoted to Manager at Walmart (I was fired for coming to work high) and I was getting my life in order and all I needed was some "help". Took me a bit, and a ton of pleading, but, my family took the bait hook line and sinker. I used that extra income to buy cigs and booze, and I leeched off welfare.

I really don't know why I said it, but, maybe I felt I did have a human heart after all. My sister is in College. She's overwhelmed with balancing school and work. She has no free-time, and no energy, and no money. She told me she wanted to get me something big for X-mas because "i know you're working hard". I kinda felt guilty, so I offered to my family (she doesn't know) to get her a surface. She'd been talking about it for awhile and my parents thought it was an excellent suggestion.

None of us could afford it. So we pitched in. They gave me the money and I would buy it and hide it till X-mas. I decided to not buy a Surface right away. Instead I used that money to go drinking with friends and ended up with a DUI and a fine. I kinda regret it, no, I really do because I know she's going to be heart broken and damnit X-mas is going to be a bad time.

Not so much a confession as advice help. I earnestly regret what I did, but, i can't come clean because if my parents find out what I did and how I've lied to them for so long, well y'know I won't have any family to talk too anymore.
Why are you talking like it's over? You got like 6 weeks man. Pull it the fuck together. Come clean, get a job, get a webcam, do what you gotta do to set it right and replace what you should have done. You say you regret what you did, well you have two choices:
1) Do nothing and let that regret eat away at you for the rest of your life.
2) Use that regret to drive you to action to try and set it right. That way at least you can say "I fucked up but I did my best to make it right."

Step up. Get creative. Find a way. It looks like you've hit bottom, time to decide. You gonna stay there? Or start clawing your way up.
 
Ah, the confessions thread. I'm hoping for more weird/funny and less AIDs guy-type stuff this time around. :(

Yeah that was rough. Really rough, and that last confession. /sigh. Life's tough yo. Be it the fault of your own or not. You realize you're screwing up, that's a huge step in changing.
 
I'd say that we should set up a GAF donation fund, but you see why I might have pause.




But seriously, we've all fucked up along the way. Some of us got lucky enough that our mistakes were brushed over, others not so much. It's about accepting that you fucked up, that it's going to suck to clean it up, but realizing that cleaning up is worth it, because it's not over yet. And maybe one day you'll be the understanding one, helping somebody in the same position that you're in right now. Good luck.
 
Well now this thread is no longer creep free.

That's kind of a shitty moral incentive by her calling him out like that if it's true, and if the confessor wasn't overanalyzing the context.

Some women do act that self-entitled/absorbed.

You're doing way more harm than good by hiding this.

It may
- screw that, it WILL -
kick your ass at first, but eventually they'll forgive you for being honest. Confess to your family, and take the fallout. Don't flinch.

After that, get your shit together and focus on getting your life back together.
 
Yeah, I am on the side of 'she was talking about someone else, don't worry.'

Apparently most girls on gaf get creepy pms occasionally. I've gotten a handful.

Hoooooo really?

Now I am interested to know what kind of message you have gotten. Perhaps you can post/pm me an example? I am genuinely curious about this, hahaha.
 
Subbed!

Not so anon confession: Sometimes gaf creeps me out. I've made a ton of friends here and I love gaf in general, but the fact that I rocketed from junior to 'people I've never seen post knowing a ton about me' in less than a year is a bit weird.
It's the Avatar.
 
hey fiction

UqmPqDY.gif



I am so very joking, I can't even post something like that without saying so, I am too god damned nice.
 

Heyyyyyyy fiction!

-stares down TUSR-



Also, subbed. I'm secretely hoping for a "the community I'm modding is a bunch of manchildren and if any other mod saw what I saw they'd all be banned"

That's called "Female on GAF Syndrome." It comes with free notoriety.

(But I don't know anything about you other than a purported Benedict Cumberbatch celebrity crush and that you're female. My guess is that most GAFfers are the same; but if the weirdly creepy dudes post about it a lot, other people learn about it via post osmosis.)
 
New confession thread yay! I love it in its horribleness.

I've never gotten a creepy PM, I've sent one once though...to show Tence how it's done.

I feel like either Fiction doesn't know me or thinks I'm super creeper. I seen her mention she does Youtube vid's before and because I often run into her on topics that we share a mutual interest in I asked for a link to her Youtube so I could sub.

I feel because of my username and the fact I'm a GAF unknown I came off as a mega nutter and she got super scared.

Fiction. I am not a creep. Really
 
I think you're coming off way creepier and crazy now than from anything you could have sent in a PM. Let it go. There are 90,000 other people on GAF to creep out.

Creepy PMS sounds like a terrible, terrible thing.

(I get what you meant. I just liked how the lack of capitalization gave it totally different meaning, like you get cramps, but they're accompanied by the sound of clanking chains and mysterious footsteps.)
 
I've had way creepier gaf-related stuff happen than that. Don't need to go into details, but yeah. PMs are fairly lightweight.

Creepers don't get creepy PMs, it is known.

I <3 u.

You are not unknown to me, I tend to enjoy your posts! As for the YouTube thing, I make fanvids. Which most of Gaf says are the worst thing ever and most people in general don't get. So I am hesitant to share, because even though I consider it art, I know people would look down on me :(

Haha, that's what get for posting on mobile >.<
