Fuck my fucking alcoholic wreck of a father.

I can only imagine if fucking CuntFlapps wasn't banned....the shit I'd be getting right now....

Get a student job while in school. And don't give me this shit about schedules. I attend University full time, and I work. There are plenty of shit jobs out there that will work around your school schedule, no matter how crazy it is.

And get a degree that will actually get you a decent job. You don't need a degree to write...you can write your novel in your spare time, once you have some.

Oh, spare time doesn't seem to be an issue. He just spends it watching tv, instead of doing something constructive. The best way he can deal with his Dad right now, is not to be there. Get off his ass, go to school AND work. Earn some money, and some respect from his Dad.

I agree that you should at least get a part time job of some sort to get additional time away from home and to throw 20 bucks a week to your Dad. It isn't a lot of money but it will mean something to him. Maybe you are already busting ass around the house to try and earn your keep there; if that is the case and your dad is still verbally abusive due to drinking then you will just have to bide your time until you can move out. If you aren't helping your dad out around the house, try and make more of an effort to the point where you are going to him and asking him if there is anything you can do. That would probably surprise the hell out of him.
I get that things aren't good right now and fences are hard to mend when you have blow ups like this. Remember - blood is blood. Your folks have taken care of you for a lot of years now. They will need you to take care of them one day. Don't make any mistakes now that you will regret later when it is too late to take them back.

He's a spoiled brat Zah. I'd fucking drink too, if I were his Dad.

My 30 year old is an ER Doctor. He did his whole undergrad on scholarship (academic) and then paid for most of the rest on his own. Like Zah, I paid 30%, maybe less. He started reffing hockey games before he was a teenager. He did that, had a job at the hospital, and a job with the Sheriffs dept. all the way through medical school. Oh, and owned his own home at 21 too. My 14 year old is starting his 4th year of reffing hockey games. He will do the same stuff, through law school.

I'm sorry your Dad inconvenienced you while you were watching your tv show. WTF? He didn't buy your lazy ass a dvr too? Maybe he's frustrated with your entitled attitude. I'll be fucked if I gave, or will give, my 20 year old gas money. My first one bought his own car at 16, and paid for his own gas. The 14 year old will do the same when he turns 16.

Sniveling because Daddy interrupted your fucking tv show. By the way, you can get Barney on DVD, if you happen to miss another episode.

Hahahahahahahahaha...

That made my day !!

[ELVIS]

Prosperity is there for the taking if you want to get off your ass and work hard for it.

In pockets it is...

But that will be dried up real soon, I'm afraid...

[twonabomber]

I'm not so sure being a "novelist" is exactly where you'll land in life when you finish school, but it's good that you have a sense of direction. Get your ass to the city when your done schooling and take a shit job with Simon & Schuster, Doubleday/Random House or even Scholastic. Immerse yourself in the business of books and book making, especially now that the industry is going through the growing pains of shifting away from printed page to digital sources. Develop constructive leads, speak with the right people and work your ass off. While doing so, continuously write while you develop your master plan of shifting from workforce to writer. There's no doubt in my mind that this the way to go. It's all a matter of 'how bad do you want it?' at this point.

The daily rag runs articles about books written by local people "on the side" while they work their boring everyday job. Used to be the vanity press, now one could probably get their original works on Amazon or iTunes for close to nothing.

Wanna write? Start a blog and write your little fingers off. Who knows who will stumble upon it.

There you go making fucking dumbass assumptions about my life. Listen here you fucking cunt, except for that one show I for the most part fucking hate TV. Angel is right, every time I have spare time, I fucking write. Its MY constructive outlet. So don't you fucking EVER give me any of your "you can never make sonething out of your life" shit.

[envy_me]

So don't you fucking EVER give me any of your "you can never make sonething out of your life" shit.

If you write that much, how come you can't read?
He never wrote that, nobody did. Everybody is telling you that you actually can make something out of your life and that you should be doing that.

I still say finishing school and working a job in a closely related field that could surley lead to something is better than toiling away your time as a Walmart cashier telling disgruntled customers, "I don't have to take any shit from you! I'm an aspiring novelist!"

[Seshmeister]

Could do better.

Angel is correct. Every fucking time I have spare time, I write. It's MY constructive outlet so don't EVER fucking give me any of your 'you can never make something out of your life' shit.

Haha.

[envy_me]

And fraroc, when you get a job, you have to learn to control your anger. An empolyer won't tolerate it if you threaten to slit customers throats just cause they tell you you didn't do their burger right.
Maybe you should get some counseling about your anger issues.

[fraroc]

Could do better.

Angel is correct. Every fucking time I have spare time, I write. It's MY constructive outlet so don't EVER fucking give me any of your 'you can never make something out of your life' shit.

I was typing on my phone, sesh.

Whoa Fraroc, dude.....eat a Snickers.



People are just saying their thoughts based on what they have experienced & have seen to work in and around their lives. Your trick here is to take all the info everyone gives you, weed out what won't work for you & apply what will. We ALL want you to come through the other side strong and happy with a great life so in 15-20 years we can do some Roth Army hazing to little Fraroc junior and his strange musical tastes he got from HIS dad....
