Exclamation What The Hell Is Wrong With You?

I'll start with what the hell is wrong with me.

1) I don't finish what I start.

2) I hate way too many foods.

3) I like Star Wars entirely too much (Ep I and II not withstanding).

4) I'm terrible with money.

5) I have the concentration level of a heroin-addled monkey.

Now what the hell is wrong with you?!

I'll play!!! This will be WAY too easy...

1. I don't finish what I start (I suspect this one will be common)

2. I *LOVE* way too many foods!!!

3. I can't seem to give up my occasional cigarettes (just a few a day but I want to cut them out completely)

4. I never get out of bed on time. NEVER. Snooze button is my friend (or my enemy...)

5. I curse like a sailor. Only a problem now that my 2 nephews are getting old enough to repeat "motherfucker"!!!

There's way more but I'll let somebody else jump in next!!!

1) I tend to fixate on stuff for a week or two at a time and then set it aside. If it interests me later, I'll come back to it.

2) I get obsessive about whatever it is I'm fixating on. My notes from last week's classes are littered with heraldic blazons.

3) If I don't want do something, I can't bring myself to do it. Contrast how many posts I've made this weekend when I have a lab report due tomorrow with other weekends.

4) I had better self-discipline and time management skills at the end of high school than I do at the end of college.

Eh... back to work. I might pick this back up later.

This thread is just begging for a counterpart... Then again, I'm one of those guys who likes to counts the hits and the misses.

1. If I didn't make it perfect, it wasn't worth my time.

2. I have the attention span of a newt. (And no, it won't get better!)

3. I'm too easily demotivated.

4. I don't keep contact with my long-distance friends/any-distance relatives.

5. I never want to go to sleep, as though I'll miss something terribly exciting within my own apartment... :banghead:

6. I have a job for now, I don't know what I'll be doing a week from now. (This may change within 24 hours, but I won't expect that phone call to tell me that I actually got the job... )

1. I start too many projects and finish none of them.

2. I'm the world's worst procrastinator. I had an entire semester to get a portfolio done for a speech class and when did I do it? The night before the due date.

3. I get obsessive. Especially about actors, singers, and TV shows. Current actor: Orlando Bloom. Current singer: Rivers Cuomo from Weezer. Current TV shows: Trading Spaces (thank you DJ!!), Iron Chef, and Sealab 2021 (just got my t-shirt from Cartoon Network and I'll be hopping offline shortly, in fact.)

4. I refuse to live without any vices. I must have at least one unhealthy addiction going at all times.

5. I seldom go out before the sun goes down and I refer to that infernal ball of gas as "the yellow glowing orb of death." Even though I know I need to go out in it to ward off depression.

1. I have a bad temper and am really impatient

2. I am not very funny; much too serious. I try to think I am a fun-loving person, and my definition of fun is fun to me, but I just recently figured out I am like the most serious person alive. I am kinda sad about that.

3. I was just diagnosed with rosacea. It sounds harmless, but my face feels roughly the size of an elephant's right now.

That's only a few of what's wrong with me. I am not as self-deprecating as funny as this thread would probably like me to be, but I guess sometimes a pityparty is just what one needs...

Okay one good one, just to be honest with myself and not overly-serious:

4. I like to think I am totally intellectual and I am smart, but mostly I read books by people like Dean Koontz, watch normal news like MSNBC, and shop at trendy places like Ann Taylor. Whenever I vote in polls and stuff, I end up voting with the majority. I AM the typical American consumer. Not very unique...
