"I'M DEPRESSED"

My girlfriend called me gay today and ended our 3 week relationship.
I'm heartbroken. :(
I'm going to cut myself until the pain subsides

Why is the world so cruel to me
Why must it torment and mock me
WHY
WHY
WHY

I can feel my heart wretching. I wrote some poetry to take my mind of my depression;

I cut
and cut until the pain
goes away.
We were together forever
but now we are not

we are not together
anymore
everyday objects remind me
of her beauty
a door, a table
a fist

The sun was like her
face, glowing and
yellow and orange and
emitting ultraviolet radiation

Ha. I saw in these 2 threads that you two seemed to be patching things up (if you can even call it that). So I was going to post:

"Strange to see you two making up. I view it to be equal to putting Dringo in a bamboo cage..."

But I thought better of it and waited to see what would happen.

Aha.

Yeah, and of course, you're an expert in that field.

Whether it was funny or not is entirely irrelevant.

"hoax n.

1. An act intended to deceive or trick."



Did I intend to "deceive" or "trick"?
No. I did not.

Case closed, shut up, and stop being so mind numbingly boring

It wasn't funny.

Them being utterly stupid and thinking my joke was actual truth has nothing to do with how I intended the joke to be.
Which was just that

It was a joke
It wasn't a "hoax"

Christ, in fact

bloody hell
how on earth can you misinterpret this for a hoax?
dear oh dear oh dear

The fact that a few people believed you after a quick glance backs up the whole hoax thing.

It seems that those people expect your posts to be a bit ropey, that's why they found it so believeable.

Erm...I wasn't trying to dupe anyone
The language I used clearly showed it was a pish take and a joke.
If I'd used serious language rather than saying that a girl's face emitted ultraviolet radiation then yes, perhaps.
If the 'poem' I wrote wasn't so obviously and purposefully woeful then yes, perhaps.

You've just misinterpreted, there's no need to try and argue your way out of that

I have no idea. I thought your joke was about fake tans.

Yes did she go to support the Oranges class?

Dale Winton would be my guess.

So shes like David Dickinson?
