(no subject)
Note: I've been wanting to post this all day, but I've been at school until now (10:15) and the firewall blocked livejournal.
I don't post often, but when I do, it's usually for a reason. So please note that I am being completely serious.
I strongly dislike (hate is so strong) when people can't/don't/refuse to take responsibility for their actions. Even more so, I dislike when they then lie about their actions, meaning I have to waste my time to find out what the fuck is going on. Seriously, it's not like you're going to be able to keep it a secret, so why don't you just tell people instead of wasting their time and then being even more embarressed (sp?) when the truth comes out.
People make mistakes! People misjudge! And last time I checked, all of you were humans. So I understand if you did something that you are ashamed of. I can forgive that. But when you try to cover it up and blame it on somebody else's inadequacies (eyesight in particular), that shows what I feel to be a character flaw.
Let's say you're cleaning your house. You knock over the cliche family vase and it breaks. Imagine how much angrier your mother would be if she finds the vase superglued together than if you just go to her and say "Mom, I was cleaning and I accidentally knocked over the vase. I'm sorry."
All that being said, I am not livid or enraged. I am upset that somebody would take the property of a person they do not even know the name of (have no friendship or relationship), hide the property while said person is throwing away your garbage, and then LIE about losing it, especially when the person is significantly younger/smaller than you. You should be ashamed.
And despite all of that, the sun will shine tomorrow (hopefully). Please do know, oh person/people to whom this is addressed, that I do indeed mean what I say. For all others, I would say this is definately good life lesson.
Enjoy.
