February 24, 200917 yr so i finally get my internet hooked up and i just got the urge to vent. what better way then a brand new topic! most of you probably have had this happen to you before. something terrible happens and someone tries to consol you by saying, "your were lucky, it could have been worse" while true in most cases theres a point where you just want to stop being so lucky! this topic is for those of you who want to relate those experiances and compare who is the most lucky of the unlucky! so heres how my moving experiance has gone for me building a brand new house that we were planning on moving into sometime in june. friends consol me by saying "well you could be moving into an old junk heap." two weeks later a fire starts in the basement. only the basement was damaged and friends consol us by saying, "it could have been worse, the whole house could have burned down." haloween repairs to the basement are finished. drunk teenagers deside to smash in our windows (curiously my window was the only one not smashed) friends again say, "it could have been worse, they could have robed you instead of just damaging the windows" january we finally decide to move into the new house before the water starts to turning to blood and the whole death of the first born stuff when the truck goes into the ditch. it could have been worse the truck could have rolled. oh, but not once, not twice, but three times did i hear that same phrase in the same month :wall: . needless to say the truck is now enjoying a stay at a friendly nieghborhood scrap yard. until finally today when we finally got an electrition out here to hook up our phone line but it turns out that in spring when the snow melts the area is prown to flooding and the phone lines, as well as the occasional building, tend to get washed away :thumbdown: that finishes my unlucky lucky story i'd like to think that no one could beat it but i doubt it. [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature!
February 24, 200917 yr Could have been worse. You could be dead. Or you could live in a third world country. 8,180WONGTONG IS THE BEST AND IS MORE SUPERIOR THAN ME#1 Wongtong stalker.Im looking for some No Limit soldiers!
February 24, 200917 yr I bet somebody will beat it. I havn't had a really unlucky day or anything, usually when something goes right or wrong in my day something comes along and neutralises it :P Doomy edit: I like sheep
February 24, 200917 yr It could have been worse. You could've been anally raped by a 50 year old pedophile. Be thankful that you didn't.
February 24, 200917 yr One day you wake up and you wonder if God made a mistake putting you in that body. Sure makes things brighter don't it :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
February 24, 200917 yr Pretty much every scenario could have been worse, so it's pretty meaningless to say that. Saying "it could have been worse" is just a way of consoling someone when something bad happens to them. Added, "luck" doesn't exist. It might be used to describe a situation where something unlikely happens, but that doesn't change the chances of it happening.
February 24, 200917 yr yay let's attract a whole heap of pessimistic whingers. The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.
February 24, 200917 yr It could be worse than robing.I mean,instead of providing you with a robe they could've robbed you of your possessions!Damn,I'm not really a grammar nazi,but when it becomes a whole new word,it gets annoying. There was this one day I had three activities going on and I injured myself once during each.Foot hits the floor during high jump,bowstring cultivates habit of hitting my arm,and I got a headache trying to get hotmail to let me forward a freaking attachment. so i herd u liek devarts?If you look at me and feel offended by my 666-ism,think.I could be just as offended by your "cross".[hide=This's why I'm hot]The Eleventh Commandment:Thou Shalst only say "Amen,brother".Amen, brother :lol:Amen, brudda (referring to the 10th commandment)amen Bruder! (german ftw)I'm invulnerable to everything, except Lenin and Dragoonson.That's impossible. I love people.[/hide]

Haha, I caught that too :P It could have been worse. He could have used internet speak. Sorry bout that.
February 25, 200917 yr You think your life is bad? I'm not saying your thread shouldn't have been posted, but you should read some of the stuff in the website posted in the thread. They're funny, and I hope they'll cheer you up. :thumbup: ^ Blog.
February 25, 200917 yr Could have been worse. You could be dead. Or you could live in a third world country. Or you could die of living in a third world country and be eaten by a Snorlax. boo. [if you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Fullmetal Alchemist, you will be missed. A great ending to a great series.
February 26, 200917 yr Just intentionally have the unlucky scenarios happen to you, so seemingly you can't have anyone say anything like that to you. Just burn down your house, become a paraplegic and incinerate all of your belongings. :thumbup: [iNSERT "I R EATIN TEH SHIX ATM" BILL COSBY SIGNATURE GIF HERE, LOL]
February 26, 200917 yr yay let's attract a whole heap of pessimistic whingers. Well, it could be worse. They could be optimistic quadriplegics. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream
February 26, 200917 yr yay let's attract a whole heap of pessimistic whingers. Well, it could be worse. They could be optimistic quadriplegics. I tried to think of something witty to come back at this with, but I failed.
