<p>if so join the club</p>
<p>my dad can be such an ass. he makes $150,000 a year and still wont get me a car (not even a $2000 car). he only started to pay for my phone bill at the beginning of the semester. he is making me go to uci (even though i would much rather go to ucsd). right now i cant think of one thing on the top of my head that he has done that has positively impacted my life.</p>
<p>My father can be obnoxious, but I would never say I hate him because he won't buy me a car or pay my phone bills. (He makes significantly more than your father, as well.)</p>
<p>Well, considering mine almost died two days ago, and just received a surgery that will let him live, I would have to say no. </p>
<p>Who could HATE their dad? You sound like a spoiled rich kid, theripcurl1969. Get your head on straight and stop talking like an ass. You call him an ass because he won't let you have a car, but you sound like a complete snob. 'OMG I can't have a CAAAAAAAAAR! Jeez man! He's freakin rich ANYway!'</p>
<p>Dude, chill out... It's JUST a car. What if your dad couldn't LIVE anymore? Would you really even CARE about driving again? You would feel like a total loser to care more about having a car than having a dad.</p>
<p>I speak from personal experience. My dad was diagnosed just three days ago with a subarachnoid hemorrage (google it; it's like an aneurysm) and was SOOOOOOOO close to dying this week it's ridicuulous.</p>
<p>Honestly, dude.. get ur head on straight.</p>
<p>**** happens, dude. Kids are starving in Africa. Stop being so lame.</p>
<p>alright sorry. its just that my dad isnt letting me choose where i want to go to college. i dont have one word in my next four years. i have tried convincing him but he just wont listen. ur right the car doesnt really matter in the long run but damn its my education so cant i have a word with it?</p>
<p>Maybe you should talk to your dad instead of screaming irrationally here? Idk, that just seems more productive.</p>
<p>^once u meet my dad, you will find out that will NEVER happen.</p>
<p>You know, I'm not sure about that. I have a vague idea of how you feel (Obviously I am not you, and each individual situation is different). I used to be totally unable to speak with my father, and it drove me nuts. Eventually, however, I realized that repressing anger toward my father was only going to hurt me later in life. So don't cut off your nose to spite your face just yet.</p>
<p>i talked with him less than two hours ago. the conversation started off pretty calm then i asked him the real reason of why he wont let me go to sd and he starts freaking out. "we have already had this conversation before" i am like "what *<strong><em>ing conversation? everytime i try to talk to u, u say not now, i am busy. tell me why i cant go to sd" and then he says "go to ur *</em></strong>ing bed" i am like "r u retarded its 7:30 pm." "he says get out of the kitchen" and i am like "calm urself down!!!: "GET OUT!!" and i am like "wow that was a great conversation. thanks anyways" and "BAM!" i slam the door.</p>
<p>it doesnt get much better than this.</p>
<p>
I HATE IT when people always use the humanitarian situation in Africa as a an analogy to any bad event that occurs in their life or the lives of others they know. **** dude, just because kids are starving in Africa that doesn't mean the poor bastard shouldn't get a car and go to the college he wants to.</p>
<p>^^ exactly....if people feel so bad about it? why dont the world just concentrate on africa?....i mean look at us, the Americans, do we care? not a whole deal....our concentration is our soldiers in Iraq... I agree with e<em>a</em>d....people shouldnt use things like that for something so little....and its not his fault his father is rich, and some kid in africa has a poor father....he shouldnt be punished for his father's success
btw theripculr1969....i KNOW HOW YOU FEEL</p>
<p>According to the Africa logic, no one should ever be upset or ****ed off because there will always be someone who is worse off than they are.</p>
<p>wow we joined at the same time...yet i have like a whole lot of posts than you....damn i gotta get off this site...holly cow IM ADDICTED</p>
<p>I really hope that the whole college deal works out for you BestMiler because it seems like you're an awesome guy and don't deserve this ****. I kinda hate how colleges put so much emphasis on one test too.</p>
<p>you guys are idiots (only the people that agree with theripcurl1969). You all sound like selfish teenagers who care more about going to a certain college or having a car than having parents. Listen to yourselves: "I KNOW how you feel"</p>
<p>Get over it and grow up, all of you.</p>
<p>Everyone's parents suck ass (including my own).</p>
<p>How selfish! Boo Hoo, Daddy didn't buy you a car. Guess what? I own a bike and it does just fine for me. Also, be thankful that your parents are even paying for your tuition.</p>
<p>i can kind of understand the selfishness of the car thing, but college?
to those of you who think that this kid is a brat, good for you. you are obviously much more mature and unfortunate than most of us, but do you honestly think it is necessary to pull the pity card? i doubt that very many of you would agree to go to a university that you don't want to attend without going down with a fight.</p>
<p>You guys (who are trashing the OP) need to get off your high-horses. The OP wanted to vent and you should be sympathetic towards her, or just not post at all. Y'all really look pitiful.</p>
<p>And OP, yeah I sorta understand what you mean, except my parents are a bit more lenient, although they still won't pay for my college even though they have a means to -_-". Good luck with the situation(s).</p>
<p>theripcurl1969, I hope you work things out about going to the college where you feel you belong.</p>
