I guess I should have anticipated this happening really...but then it had to happen sometime I guess...anyway, this is prolly as good a time as any to make the official thumped announcement that as of last week Jimmy Magee and Super Dexta are no longer an item...this is however quite unrelated to my woes, apart from me having to think more about them a bit I guess...(I hope this is what you're referrin to and I'm not totally misinterpreting...I'd worry you might be mildly embarressed, except of course that you're Hag)

I dunno, maybe there should be a section that indicates who's linked to who and so on so that people are kept up-to-date or sumthin?
:( sorry man, i obviously had no idea.
 
Generally, tanks to folks for their concern and advice and so on...it helps...although I guess a lot of this stuff has to be figured out for oneself...
 
Jimmy Magee said:
Yeah, I guess so, but then I have no idea what is...I dunno, I just guess a lot of knot-untying is required in MaBrain...
yeah, but don't you remember i was all tangled and you couldn't get a handle on what it was i was talking about? you're here now. welcome. only thing i'll say is that it definitely gets better. ha, wait 'til you have kids... that puts things in their proper place all on it's own... i'm guessing pants and the snake will back me up on this one...
 
yeah.
i had a little while like this a while ago. i wasn't happy. i broke up with my girlfriend, i quit my job and went out and tried to start afresh. i did a little travelling and made a list of things i wanted to do, and i didn't do all of them, but i did one or two.
now i have a job i like, and i'm a lot happier.
things get on my mind a little, but not letting yourself get trapped in something helps.

hope everythings ok.

your problem Jimmy is you never went to war

a good 6 month spell in a ditch somewhere outsitide Dusseldorf, with nothing but a pistol and a box of K-rations would have sorted you out
It's true you know...maybe a spell in Bagdhad would give me some motivation

sorry to hear that. :(
 
This sure is a bright and cheery thread to be reading first thing in the morning... Man you're not over the hill yet, you've plenty of time left to do things you want to do.. don't be so dramatic *slaps you in the face* :)
 
Mid to late twenties is not that old. Loads of time to realise ambitions yet (perhaps not football though). It is kinda disturbing when you read about people who are really young but have acheived great things be it music or film. I always wish there was someone who would have put me on the right track when i was 11 or 12 and given me music to listen to or books to read or whatever. I should have been at the stage i am now when i was 18 : :confused: .

Says who? I think like this sometimes, but it's not a great way to approach your life. You wouldn't know what you know if you were 18. I often think I've wasted most of my life so far, but at least I know a lot -- from experience -- about what isn't right for me. Changing tracks, making unwise decisions, learning from your mistakes: they all give you the perspective you need to be a happier person.

I sound like a fucking self-help book.
 
"my philosophy is if you have a goal in life, then you might not reach it, but if you dont, then you are never disappointed.. and i gotta tell ya, it feels phenomenal!"

yes.. i have been watching too much Dodgeball.. but you see it has relevance to every life crisis and situation.

at 27.. you are still but knee high to a grass hopper in the grand scheme of things.

fuck sake there are octogenarians out there getting more ass and partying more than we do... i wouldnt worry, besides... you do carry with you a cyanide pill at all times right? just in case of emergency you understand.

Exactly. If you think now is 'too late', you'll look back in five years, and think, "Why did I think that? What a load of bullshit! NOW it's too late." And so will go the cycle.

Put it this way: if you could go back and tell your 18-year old self what you know now, would your teenage self listen? Mine wouldn't. Hell no. Sure, if only my 29-year old self would actually listen to what I'm saying right now, I'd be a whole lot more satisfied.
 
Ooh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh life
Oh life


I'm afraid of the dark
Especially when I'm in the park
When there's no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don't wanna see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
Watch the evening news


Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life


I'm a superstitious girl
I'm the worst in the world
Never walk under ladders
I keep a rabbits' tail
I'll take you up on a dare
Anytime, anywhere
Name the place, I'll be there
Bungee jumping, I don't care


Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life


So after all's said and done
I know I'm not the only one
Life indeed can be fun
If you really want to
Sometimes living out your dreams
Ain't as easy as it seems
You wanna fly around the world
In a beautiful balloon


Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life


Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Life, oh life
Oh life, oh life
Oh life, oh life

I approve of this thread. At least it's not about hairdressing or something.

Anyway, I should have gone straight through University and got a degree 5 years ago. But I didn't cause I couldn't be arsed doing any work at the time. This however is ultimately beneficial as when I go back to University, hopefully in a matter of months, I will go straight the fuck through it and get a waaaaayyyy better degree than I would have got otherwise, oh yes. Sometimes taking a bit of time to do something really pays off, realise this.
 
I suggest you watch the film "Max" for a dramatic renewal of purpose, Jimmy Magee. You'll see that the protagonist, a soldier in Germany in the late twenties, doesn't have a "pot to piss in", as he puts it, has a desparate life living in a barracks, has more or less failed as an artist, and is taken seriously by nobody, especially women, and his jewish art agent. A man in his thirties, his ambitions haven't been realised and he seethes with anger and self loathing. But then he finds true meaning in political discourse and makes some good friends in the nationalist socialist party. He develops a keen understanding of a new phenomenon, called propaganda, and he finds himself to be a rising star in the new party, because his feeling for the dramatic, in art, is equally applicable in politics, and he's a great speaker with a somewhat angry style that finds a home in the hearts of an aggrieved people. Then he shows them all. Oh boy does he show them.

Ever think of politics?
