So for quite a while now, I've been becoming more and more cynical towards the world, specifically humanity. I'm starting to like people less and less, and the stupidity in other is starting to become unbearable. I don't mean stupidity as in not good at school, but stupidity in general. I mean, the people around are just so... ******** stupid. Some people I can tolerate, and I do have people whom I like/love, but for the most part I'm surrounded by idiots for most of the time. Maybe it's just because I'm still in high school and I can't really help but be surrounded by people I don't like, but I don't think it's going to get any better after school ends. It's not just the stupidity in people, but also how much of an a*****e people can be, which isn't being helped by "studying" US History and looking at human history in general. I honestly do now believe that humans have always, are, and will always be assholes. This isn't to say that I don't think we as a species can't change, but that's just it. By the time people have changed and aren't the ignorant, senseless, uncaring people they are, we'll be a completely different race of beings (which, unfortunately, I won't be around for).

All of this, and I'm only 16 (17 in May). I don't want to be angry all the time, but I feel like if the only way to do so is to become a hermit (which I don't want to do), or surround myself with people who are thinking at the same level I am (which is difficult, considering the majority of people around me don't). I have found people whom I wouldn't give up for the world, but unfortunately they're not even physically close to me. Either they live in a different county and I can't visit them, or they live even further and in a different state or country.

I know I'll never be able to avoid the people who aggravate me so much, simply because there's so many of them, but it just gets to me sometimes. It doesn't even have to be a large amount of people, it could just be a small group of people (like the ******** Robber Barons) who make me feel as if humanity isn't worth anything. If these assholes are capable of the s**t they do, what's stopping everyone else? Sometimes I feel like if I can't stand it anymore.

God dammit, I'm too young for this s**t.

Welcome to the club dude. I grew up around adults and not to brag, because that's not me, but I'm pretty smart compared to the sheeple as I call them. (You know, those who follow the crowd and are eternal passifists like sheep who go throw life uknowing and uncaring of their past present or future.) After highschool I promise it gets sooooo much better. I even busted my *** to graduate in three years instead of four so I could get away from the idiocy. I was homeschooled and not the crazy religious kind or the too stupid for public school, just I didn't handle the communistic, uneducational bs. It gets better, college will be heaven for you, because you will be around people who are PAYING for their education, but having to be there. It is so much more serious and you are surrounded by people who are smart and care about being that way. I feel the same way you do about the hermit thing. Somedays I just don't want to leave the house because I know I will be sorely dissapointed at the whole human race once again. Good Luck, you sound pretty cool, you'll do fine.
