You broke your table, mine was already broken.

I went to make a bowl of delicious vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup. I'm sitting at my table, finishing up with adding the syrup. I go to put the syrup back in my fridge, when I turn and accidentally kick off one of the legs of my table.

This particular leg was already broken, but was there to help keep the table up. Anyways, when that happened, the table fell on it's limp side, tossing my bowl of delicious ice cream onto the ground and breaking it. I then began to clean up my mess, and decided to not make another bowl due to the fact that there's not a lot of it left, and I know other people will complain if I eat the remaining bit.

I am sad. :(

Oh, I just got a baseball bat and hit it. It knocked my keyboard onto the ground but meh... I'd have to say this has been the most pissed I've been in a long time.
My weekend was going so beautifully too...

I can understand some things like punching it and accidentally breaking it...But hitting it with a baseball bat is just stupid...Even if you are frustrated or stressed as you put it, its best to think before you act...Like what the hell were you trying to achieve? And now look at the consequences of your irrational behaviour.
Sure there could be big reasons for what you've done but even so I find it a bit over the top.

Eh, what I was trying to achieve isn't as important as what my parents always do when there's something really important to me. Sometimes I think I should just stop asking their permission before doing anything.
I do agree that I went over the top, but I felt better after doing it so eh... God my hand hurts >_<

I hate it when games royally screw you sideways.

I was playing Final Fantasy 11, which happens to be an MMO the other day. Anyways, I used something called an Empress Band which boosts the exp you gain per fight.
I use it, get aggo'd by a Goblin, and die. I'm fine with that, it was kinda lame though. It spawned right in front of me as I was running to my party.

Anyways, right as I get to the party, another Goblin aggro's, and I have to use an ability that makes the Gob go solely after me. I go to zone (go into new area so it doesn't follow me), and the party starts yelling at me that "We can take it." When I have no MP.
They also say, "Exp has gone down since White Mage joined." Which bull-onie.

Fast forward a couple minutes, and someone dies. During the fight, a higher level person comes by, and starts casting Raise on the dead person. The person comes back to life, just as the Goblin we were fighting does an Area of Effect move, and the person dies again. She then freaks out, and leaves.

So, I switch my jobs back to my main, Dark Knight, and go to get a party. Right as I switch, I got an invite, which is quite rare for Dark Knight's because not many people play DRK's well. So I'm pumped that I got a party, and right as I pay to get a ride to the main town to join my party, I'm told, "Nevermind, we got someone else."

So, I am out the money, waiting for a ride into town, and I run into a White Mage that's my same level. I invite him, and go to put my own party together. He joins, and I get some really good looking jobs together. We all gather at the dungeon to start killing things, and I get aggro'd by a monster that no one could take. I die, the doorbell rings, and then the phone rings, which kicks my wireless signal down into the 0 received packets, and I get disconnected.

I go answer the door, phone, and reconnect, and to my surprise they're all alive, and I hop back into the party with not too much problems. Someone of a very high level came by, and killed the thing that aggro'd, so I thought we were ready to start kicking ass. Right as our Ranger goes to pull a monster back, he gets aggro'd, and the monster links with another. So we've got three monsters on our hands, and it would take a good deal of effort just to kill one.
So, our White Mage decides to teleport us out of there, to an area that's VERY far away from any dungeon that would be at our level. As soon as we warp, the Ranger, whose fault it was in the first place, starts yelling at the White Mage for saving his ass, and disbands.

The party fell apart, and there I was. Out in the middle of nowhere, looking for a party, after I had spent all the money to get into town, used the Empress Band, and overall lost exp on both jobs.

It's a sad, sad life for poor old Ketchup.

I hate when I want to say something, but don't want to read a long post. So I just go along with what everyone else says.

Man, that sucks KB.

You leave all of your family and friends for two years or so, and you're wasting your time on an MMO RPG or whatever?! :?

I hate it when you fuck your clutch up in the first week of driving and have to pay

You know I'd chainsaw yo face.

@ Scotty - It was almost gone, but a little street race finished it instantly. had to drive it to the repair garage at 7:30am before college, and it wouldn't go faster then 20mph. Lets just say I wasn't popular with other road users this morning.

Still, it may cost a lot but it's much better to drive then those lazy yanks with there automatic transmissions. Lazy poops.
