this is a rant i wanted to post on facebook, but considering that if i did i'd end up making enemies of my friends i thought i could post it here instead.
Fucked up double standards
Maybe if I'd moved out when I was 16, dropped out of high school, popped out a kid, finished my GED through night school. Maybe if I did all that I'd be more acceptable in your eyes.
If I had done all that maybe then you would be less quick to judge. You'd realize "Oh she must have had a hard life, she's doing the best she can. What a great person she is to with stand all those obstacles."
Instead being a 21 yr old girl still living at home, I'm obviously pampered and so lucky to live such a nice life and I'm wasting my potential. Wasting all the great things I have in front of me. Everyone should be as lucky as me.
I haven't been living on my own for 10 yrs. I couldn't know what it's like to have real hardship in front of me. I might have almost lost my eye sight at 14 but I don't have cancer.
I drink too much.
In fact, I'm drinking right now instead of pounding the streets looking for a job.
You know Jessie, you are so crazy. You are such a mooch. All those times you helped me mean nothing if you don't buy the next round.
You don't know what it's like Jessie. You couldn't know what it's like, your parents are sooo great. You treat them with such disrespect, you really ought to change that. Your Daddy didn't beat you...Oh wait, he did? Well at least your mother isn't a drunk.
You really should be more lady like Jessie. You really should stop being so emotional.
BE ALL THAT YOU CAN BE
And then because you're not like me, change it.
Everything that you're doing..don't do it. Why aren't you doing anything Jessie?
You should be more fun Jessie. Why can you never be serious Jessie?
Dear society, fuck you. Love Jessie.
