I am a threat to society
| I wouldn't get it
| We live in a society, am I right g/a/ls?
| And you like being like this?
| >>830594 not really, but in the worst case scenario I will kill myself instead of other people. So, I am not really a threat to anyone, I guess.
| Meaning, I lied in the title!
| :^)
| I dunno op you need better phrasing, i just imagine someone dressed up emo with a supa long fringe saying "fear meeee..."
Perhaps getting better at writing can help with expressing your inner torment. It'll be much better than sudoku.
| >>830631 it is more like I don't give a fuck that people don't understand me. I know for certain they won't even if they tried. I won't understand anyone or anything in this life as well. Uncertainty pains me, but I can't do anything about it. The truth I seek does not exist.
Sounds pretentious, huh?
| Sounds retarded? Sounds silly? Sounds stupid?
Well, you are probably right.
| >>830650 It only sounds poorly thought out because you're choosing to make unnecessary assumptions. Your sentiment is fairly common. Perhaps it's not commonly talked about, but there are millions of people who feel, will feel or have felt as you do. You can bury your head in the sand if you want, but that's how you arrived at the faulty conclusion that you're too unique to be understood.
| >>830652 ...and that is why I have never found any human being similar to myself in my entire life. Like I said, it does sound pretentious, but that is just what it is.
Though, there is always a possibility that I might be wrong. So, I gave myself half a year to try other strategies as a last resort.
| I hope you gals take a page from val, turn your disdain for life into art. No person can fully understand you. But you can get pretty close with art, beyond language. Good luck in the trenches.

Mankind has evolved through language and through language all its thoughts and feelings may be expressed. To admit failure in utilizing language is to admit your failure to be a human being.
| >>831054 You're pretty cringe if you think doing art instead of writing/speaking is somehow failing as a human being.
Totally unbased and uncool.
| >>831064
Art is nothing but throwing your hands up in the air and telling the listener to figure it out before marching out in the room in a huff; whereas in any equitable conversation the burden of communicating themselves clearly and concisely is and ought to be placed upon the speaker (consider the Gricean maxims).
Communication is difficult because humans are complicated. It is your duty as a human to try regardless, and through this trying acquire the skills necessary.
| >>05f530 with that sort of logic you've already set yourself up for failure, language cannot totalise experience.
I don't know what to say, your rationalist reading of language is very archaic. It's a tool that has it's own sets of baggage which are unavoidable.
This logic is great if you're on joe rogan selling a book because it makes it seem like u have the answers.
Recommend listening to chomsky stuff on linguistics (not the commie stuff) or some merleau ponty.
| I dunno it's pretty spurgy to not understand that no one can 100% sympathise/empathise with each other and some abstraction is necessary.
If that's the case, i hope you get happy by accident.
| >>831054 language is quite imperfect and cannot express everything like you claim. We can't really share our experiences and feelings, we can only tell about them. A person listening can only imagine what you're telling them but that doesn't mean they'll actually feel or experience that. Failing to convey something by using language is an everyday problem in our lives, especially when it comes to things most people don't ever experience.
