Polite lies 

I've been saying this for a long time now, but I think it's something the bears repeating. I really wish that people would say what's on their minds. All of this political correctness and trying to be polite and non-offensive doesn't really work for me. If you have a problem with something or someone, you should come out with it. The truth comes out eventually in one form or another. Isn't it better to let it out in the beginning and avoid all the guessing and backstabbing and mistrust that comes with these so-called "white lies"? I absolutely hate trying to interpret things people say. I always assume that there's a hidden meaning. Maybe it has to do with my distrust of people in general. I also hate having to try and hide my true feelings so that I can "fit in" and not be ostracized. It always seems that when I do say what's really on my mind that people don't take it well. It's like they want to be lied to. Somehow I come off as the bad person, and it sucks. This is an issue that really strikes me to the core and pisses me off. Why don't people understand? Things could be so much simpler if you were honest! So you tell someone something you don't like about them, and they accept it. At least they know how you really feel and don't waste their time trying to convince you otherwise. The thing is, it's really all a game to everyone. Unfortunately, it's not a game that I'm good at playing. It torments me to no end that I have to keep things to myself and that I have to try and probe into what even says to find out how they really feel. Am I the only one who wants honesty? You're all living in the dark! You maintain the charade so you can all go about your stupid happy little oblivious McLives. I guess ignorance really is bliss......

Current Mood: Confused/Lost
Currently listening to: Misc. tracks by Modest Mouse (old school)
Last movie I saw: Star Wars IV: A New Hope (or half of it at least)
One line review: There was a time I was obsessed with these movies, so I really can't say anything bad.
On a scale of 0-5 sucks (0 being the best): 1.5 sucks
