Preconceived notions / negative attitudes
 

I realized today that white people don't all hate me, they will do business with me and black people from Kansas don't necessarily hate me, either. What's more, when someone walks by me when I am out somewhere sitting down, or when someone is behind me in a store, they're not trying to hurt me. Even further I've realized that when someone is nice to me it's not always a sign that they're trying to get over on me.

I think this new information is really going to help

Plus - I realized the power of a positive attitude. I think hating everything and being real mad and stressed has held me back in some huge ways. I know it takes time to completely change my attitude .. But I am well on my way

Give it a try some time! :thumbsup

You're onto something MrMaxwell :thumbsup

Wait, so which color are you dude? lol

Preconceived notions are a total bitch. It's unfortunate but it's because of past experiences and feeling powerless to rid their lives of the negativity.

you see in others what you are. you see people trying to scam you because ... well, you know.

when you change that behavior you will see people actually how they are.

Color doesn't matter, that racial bullshit breeds itself.

E.G: If you have a chip on your shoulder about being a minority it is likely you will actually create a self fulfilling prophecy in which you are discriminated against.

If you have a positive attitude you will find people reciprocate that.

I think I have had a chip on my shoulder about being a minority for the last couple of weeks.. and that really is just stupid.

Alright rain man, that is partially true. I do want to cause harm to many people. But not good ones. I've never scammed anyone in my life, though. I am an honest person who does fair straightforward business or NONE.

If I was out to scam people, would I have turned down the $100 offered to me by L-Pink last week?

You do nothing but talk shit and make things up.. and again, you spend 23 hours per day on GFY. Nothing you say matters.

I am white

Not brand new Lexus trucks out front and cushy overpaid $200k/yr job white.. not asking if you like grey poop on you white.. not looking down my nose at everyone white.. white in color.

Zoloft can help you.

How does Zoloft take the white trash out of people?

This is interesting if true. A whole new application of the drug that was never intended.

Not funny.. I am not white trash.. white trash goes on welfare and they do meth all of the time.. I don't do any drugs, have never applied for any government aide and I don't own a banjo.

The only time I've EVER popped a pill for stress was this one time when a close friend gave me something called a vivance or some kind of a thing. Everything was FINE but the next day I was so numb I literally felt like I didn't exist. It was confusing as hell. Oh and whatever it did to me made my cock and balls shrivel up to 1/3 their size for two days :(

I guess there was one other time.. I ate one of my grandmothers paxil pills when I was drunk one time.. It made me talk to a person who wasn't there and have crazy dreams.

Doctors (or in 2011 called prescribers) should never be allowed to give these kinds of medicines. They're body doctors. I would never accept a mind chemical alterer from someone who didn't do a full brain scan and fully understand how the result should be interpreted.

That paxil they had my grandmother on made her gain 100lbs, become diabetic and she was outright just insane while on it for ten years. Plus they never warned her about the horrible withdrawl. Or that you have to keep increasing the dosage as your body develops tolerance. Or that there's a dosage ceiling where you are just in withdrawl for the rest of your life. That was ten years of HELL dealing with her - I wish we could sue them :( She finally did beat the drug and got off of it last year, thank god, I could have never moved out of town if she was still on it.

I like my chemicals the way they are. Sure I am a little off, but, in good ways. The only time my chemicals bother me is when I am struggling financially .... Nothing can make me climb the ceiling like being broke .. I am the type who could believe that someone is on their way over to murder me and be alright, but, if I can get a certain bill paid on time or drive a Cadillac I get all like this :mad:

I disagree. I think white trash is a state of mind. You don't need a banjo or welfare check to be an embarrassment to the rest of us.
:2 cents:

agreed...

if i see some ghetto looking black guy with your pants down to your knees or some wigger, you are going to get no respect from me..

if you present yourself with self respect and dignity, i am going to give you respect regardless of the color of your skin..

Good stuff Mr. Maxwell. I hope your read your own post every morning for a month or something. I spent YEARS totally screwed up about what other people were thinking of me. Then someone pointed out they aren't friggin thinking about me! I'm not that damn important. Mostly they are thinking about themselves.

The chick behind me in line is thinking about the Snicker's bar on the display.

WTF? I've never had any idea what colour your skin is - and I never cared. To be honest, I still have no idea how dark or light you are - and, frankly, I don't see the relevance. That's not even close to being a proper sentence, btw.

WTF?

Help what? WTF?

WTF? This is some random bastardization of the English language.

Stop drinking and stop typing while you're face down on your desk.

If you're going to post music from the 1400s, do it right

I haven't been drinking!

No one doubts that. You're poor. You're dumb. You most likely have some serious mental issues. You will never be successful. You'll always look for the easy way. You wanted to blackmail a pedophile so you could buy a Cadillac. You're just white trash.
:2 cents::2 cents:

I'm poor. I'm definitely not as sharp as I use to be. I don't think my mental state is serious. I was tempted to blackmail a lowlife but not just to buy some car. To put my sister through school and get health care for my woman. Not saying I was right to even consider such a thing, but, I didn't do it.

The thing is, any normal person understands immediately that its not right. In fact, it would never cross peoples minds. Only a lunatic would dream up such a scheme and then go to a public forum to discuss it, which in itself is prima facie evidence of the fact that you are a little deranged and not very intelligent and/or lack any ability to reason through things or that you possess any semblance of sound judgement.

BTW... "i don't think my mental state is serious". That's an interesting remark because it suggests you do have some known mental issues that require attention. Of course you do not think they are serious. You will be very hard pressed to find anyone who is seriously disturbed or who suffers from serious personality disorders or mental disorders who would readily admit that they feel they have a problem. Ones ability to rationalize ones condition as being manageable or OK, not serious etc is a simple coping mechanism that disturbed people rely on to get through the day. I suggest that you seek help asap... or get back on the meds you're supposed to be on or get back into the treatment that you quit.

Mr. Maxwell; thank you for your kind post.

I don't give a rat's ass if you are black, white, brown, yellow or a fucking Puerto Rican.

LOL!

This is about people, not business and even if it were ONLY about business, I would respect you anyway as a valued businessman and potential associate.

My reason for lack of contact in the last few weeks is a hospital stay in which I was held for some three days in a drug-induced coma but all is now well; I have the rest of my life to look forward to and it seems to me that you may be on a similar path but for different reasons.

Looking forward to the time when we have a dinner and a couple of drinks together.

Bring your woman; I'm buyin'.

Thank you for your kindness in our past communications and looking forward to more of those; I am.......

Sally Rand.
