*nods* 'Tis a shame...

Whenever I see 'obtuse' I think of a triangle where two legs meet at an angle of more than 90 degrees. So yes, I did just picture a bunch of obtuse triangles walking around with cross necklaces going 'lol jeezus lol GOD'

[Nighthawk]

I do that too... :\

Well, happy 4th of July to those of you in America, and let me know if fireworks are legal in your state. They are here, because woo-hoo, southerners like to blow themselves up! Well, I actually did think about having a Roman Candle wand duel with my friend... Stupefy!

Anyway, what stupid people wake up the neighborhood by blowing up fireworks in the morning? I mean, it's broad daylight, people... x.x

So, I finally figured out why my old next door neighbour-a kind, wonderful old man-went to jail.

He fucking molested my best friend. She was six.

*fumes*

I'm only posting this here because I'm pissed off and need to rant.

First off, why did nobody tell me? I've probably said something insensitive to her, like, "Gee, I wonder why he's in jail?"

Second, what jail is he in, and what do I do to get in, because I'm going to shove a fucking spoon so far up his ass he'll need a dentist to get it out.

To make things worse, I honestly felt sorry for him before I learned this little gem.

DDDX

Holy shit. o.o

[Dual]

I know. DX

Worst part-for me, that is, it's obviously nothing compared to what she went through-is that I can't get over this. She's probably dealt with the trauma and buried it in her mind, so bringing it up would only hurt her and all. I have no way to vent my anger towards the guy-if he wasn't going to die in jail I'd probably get some friends and beat him up at night-and I fucking lived next to him for six years. He was extremely good with children.

I dunno.I probably shouldn't be posting such information on here, but I seriously have no other options.

[Contradiction]

How did you find this out?

I dunno, I feel like you should talk to her if you haven't. If she's your best friend, she might feel better if she knew you knew, and were there to support her. And it sounds like you just need to talk to her, too.

Meh, you don't have to listen to me. I have - thankfully - no experience like this whatsoever.

[Dual]

The rents.

But how can I help her? She's been helped. She's probably gone through therapy and had years to get over the experience.

Its partly that I'm scared, but the way I see it is that I could either hurt her or help her-and I don't know if I want to risk it.

[Contradiction]

But if she's alone in it... Parents and therapists aren't friends. They're... parents and therapists. Which are not at all the same things as a friend - especially a really close one. I suppose this would be more relevant had this not happened ten or so years ago, but still.

I don't think you'll hurt her. Sure, it might be painful to bring up a memory like that. Well, no, it will be painful. But I honestly think it would help, and make her feel better in the long run.

...I'm sorry. DX This must be awful.

[Dual]

Allright. I'll talk to her. D:

Thanks for helping.

And I have to go for unrelated reasons. Bye.

[Contradiction]

M'kay.

:/

Bye.

[Dual]

Haven't asked her yet, but I'll have time tomorrow.
