I'm not freaking out actually, I'm just slightly pissed that I'm getting this much shit from someone over this. And wanna know something! That Christmas post was actually me! GASP It's a giant consipiracy!
Just as I wasn't trying to scam anyone then, I'm not trying to now. To this day I honestly do not understand what people thought I was trying to accomplish in that post. I got called a rapist, a scam artist, a professional thief, and all without a single shred of evidence. Yeah, I totally wanted to show up at a crowded house, murder/rape everyone, steal all their earthly possession. Or maybe I wanted to steal all their turkey! I could have been anyone, doing anything! Gee, come to think of it, we better let the people who attend the meetups know that one of them is likely a super rapist-thief who is going to fuck and steal from everyone at the Dodger!
I just wanted to have dinner with someone and their friends or family so I didn't feel alone over the holiday. That was all. As both this post, and that one, have stated, I'm completely alone in this city, and don't have anyone to turn to for anything. Even after I provided photos of me in the goddamned hospital, with IV's running outta me from everywhere people like you still went on and on, calling me all sorts of insanely rude, and hurtful things. Again, with absolutely no evidence.
It was a very, very shitty point in my life; I was sick (which is largely the reason I'm currently on OW for the record), a lot of shitty things we're happening to me that I didn't deserve, and I felt completely alone to top it off, because I actually was. You wanna know what? You guys just ended up making it ten times worse. And for what? A feeling of some sort of perverted "justice"? Yeah, big accomplishment guys. Pat yourselves on the back for that one.
So here I am again, foolishly asking a very simple question, and looking for some advice seeing I don't know the city and it's resources very well, and what do ya know. Again someone attempts to paint me out to be some kind of monster. Why? Seriously...why? How am I not supposed to be upset when people act like this? I've given no one any reason to doubt a thing I'm saying. I'm not saying anything out of the ordinary, and to be honest, I don't believe that any amount of proof to validate a single thing I'm saying would make a shit-lick of a difference. Beyond you and /u/how_i_met_ur_brother, no one has offered me anything but useful advice in this thread, of which I am incredibly thankful for.
I'm not looking for a goddamned thing other than the exact advice I've asked for, and now received. Why is it so hard to believe that it's just that simple? Seriously, how could anyone honestly go about getting a free computer, or whatever the hell it is you think I'm trying to achieve here, but simply asking a question which has been made explicitly clear? The only place I've shut-down was Easyhome (which no one even mentioned, I brought it up myself, and you pounced on it), and the other Mac place for the simple reason I don't have a credit card. I've taken every other piece of advice given to me, and have been acting on it. I'm even going into Free Geek tomorrow to talk to the old guy that a redditor suggested I talk to.
And just to be clear, I'm not "freaking out" here at all, but I am frustrated, and disheartened that I'm being ripped on for no good reason whatsoever. But you wanna know why I freaked out the way I did back during Christmas? I had just got home from being in the hospital for over two weeks, not having slept more than a few hours each night during that time, while in excruciating pain despite having been on morphine the whole time. So to come in the door, half cooked from all the meds I was hopped up on, running on no sleep, and still in incredible pain, to find that I'm suddenly a rapist/murderer/theif/scam artist etc, caused me to react in a way I normally would never have. So yeah, sorry about that, but not really.
No go ahead, let's start this all over again. Start making posts about how rotten of a person I am, and make sure you are extra vitriolic with your statements as well. Oh and make sure that you make a bunch of ludicrous claims that have absolutely zero basis in reality. I'm looking forward to Christmas 2.0...
