Quantcast
A reason why I am a horrible person

Besides being new and starting a thread.





My brother worries. He worries to the point where he gets sick and does things like Shakespeare blood and throw up. And then he worries even more because of that.



I can't blame him. My whole family worries. But he does it the most. He thinks about things, like famines, holocausts, wars, death, and then worries himself.



He's 11.





So the other night I was talking to my parents when my brother walks into the room in tears. My mum asks him what's wrong. He looks incredibly sad. I can't keep a straight face. I'm told to leave.



I'm still in earshot when I hear him crying. Being the nosy person I am, I stood still.



I can't hear most of what he's saying, but apparently he's worried about death.



My dad is trying to comfort him. He's 11 and worried about dying, about his whole family dying! My dad talks to him.



"Scotty... Scotty, Sco-Scott, just listen to me. You have nothing to worry about. Do you know what the average life expectancy in the United States is?"



I am a horrible person.



Before he had a chance to answer, I could not control myself.



God help me, I shouted out "12."







Silence. Then I hear laughter from my mom, tears from Scotty, and this sort of silent fury from my dad.







Alright, I didn't hear that last part. But I kind of assumed it was there.

Good effort, you used proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. The story had a beginning, middle and end, and even some exposition without being too long and boring.

Oh, except alright is not a word. It should have been all right.

The kid needs more cartoons, and less discovery channel.







You...you're gonna be alright !

Sometimes, when I'm watching Mythbusters, I manage to get it in my head that Jamie is Whistler, Adam is Declan, and Kari is Tabs. If you know, you know. If you don't, I don't feel like 'splainin.



Also, I like, commas.

Dan, I'm not sure this is what they had in mind when they said you should be more punctual.

I disagree.. Misleading tittle.

This vignette is not a "reason why.." at all, but rather an "illustration that.."



No home game for you!

Can I be Grant?



Oh. Waitaminnit. That would mean I'd eventually be smelling Declan's shorts or something. That's gotta be worse than falling face first into my kid's soiled diaper.



Oh, and Millie, "alright" is a non-standard but acceptable variant of "all right."

Excellent first thread. Since your brother is only 11 I'm giving you this advice: if you're under 18 NEVER tell us. The results could be dire! Or boring. But either way, not pleasant.

I once found a whole baggie full of crazy once.



True story:



I smoked the whole damn thing and woke up in Idaho next to Keanu Reeves and River Phoenix. Later on, we picked-up some Italian chick. We were looking for River's mom or something.

I understand how your brother feels. I worry a lot, too.



I'm so worried about what's happening today,

In the Middle East, you know.

And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval

System they've got at Heathrow.

I'm so worried about the fashions today,

I don't think they're good for your feet.

And I'm so worried about the shows on TV

That sometimes they want to repeat.

I'm so worried about what's happening today,

In the Middle East, you know.

And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval

System they've got at Heathrow.

I'm so worried about my hair falling out,

And the state of the world today.

And I'm so worried about being so full of doubt

About everything anyway.

I'm so worried about modern technology,

I'm so worried about all the things

That they dump in the sea.

I'm so worried about it, worried about it,

Worried, worried, worried.

I'm so worried about everything that can go wrong.

I'm so worried about whether people like this post.

I'm so worried about this very next post,

It isn't the best that I've got.

And I'm so worried about whether I should go on

Or whether I shouldn't just stop.

I'm so worried about whether I ought to have stopped.

And I'm so worried because it's the sort of thing I ought to know.

And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval

System they've got at Heathrow.

I'm so worried about whether I should have stopped then,

I'm so worried that I'm driving everyone round the bend.

And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval

System they've got at Heathrow.

Remember when they bitched about me talking about that guy? They're going to beg me to start that again if I start posting lyrics like I used to.
