I said I wouldn't post any proper pictures of me (without that mask), but I thought it was about time I got over my phobia. I still can't post my picture directly onto the forums, because I'm still ashamed of the way I look (you can blame the 10 straight years of bullying when I was a kid for that) so I've settled for a link. This picture is a few years old and dates back to my time in University, just replace the glasses with the generic trendy ones you see everyone wearing these days and the clothes with something better and you'll have me as I look now.

Yeah, I know I have a giant forehead (it's a combination of genes from my parents, I'll never forgive them for it)... I was bullied because of it, so no jokes... please.

Lose the glasses if you can (contacts?), get a better haircut (or a buzzcut, or just something different), maybe grow a bit of facial hair, and you won't look like such a geek. Your "giant forehead" effect is largely caused by your really far-back hairline. Maybe making your hair a non-issue would benefit your look.
 
Oh yeah, and Phranky: You're, honest to God, not ugly. You're actually a really pleasant-looking guy. If anything's driving people away it's your defeatist attitude, which I doubt you're very comfortable with anyway. Fix it! You know you can.

I disagree. NeoGAF face-tat = loss of geekdom and thus vaginamania

Not exactly my g/f... More of a friend with benefits?

Like I said before, I need to get away from the UK... it just annoys and frustrates me too much. The great unwashed only seem to enjoy getting completely drunk (alcohol is of course something I don't enjoy) and watching mindless drivel like soap operas and reality TV...

There's no intellectual stimulation whatsoever, I feel like I'm going crazy.

I was there when he got his lip done like that. So don't let him lie to you, he nearly cried.

If you hate so much yourself and everyone around and you refuse to change, then I don't see any other way than this...

You're such a cliche.

Right now all I'm seeing from you are excuses and misplaced blame. You can go on forever blaming bullies, parents, ex-friends, television, alcohol, etc, but in the end, no one has to live with you but yourself. It's pretty obvious to everyone here that you don't like yourself, so then why should anyone else?

They say it all the time in the relationship threads: cocky and funny. You are neither. You're depressing and morose. Once you get confidence and a sense of humor about things, life seems a lot less gloomy than you've made it seem to yourself. Suddenly, people start to gravitate towards you. Things start going in your favor, situations seem far less threatening, and you actually learn some fucking tolerance rather than judging everyone like you're better than them (all the while complaining about how shitty you are).

I mean, for real here... you've got nerds on a gaming forum telling you to shape up your act. You've hit rock bottom. Don't stay there forever. It sucks seeing people given the opportunity of life only to waste their one shot at it.

I think it's important to quote this post, becuase it's pretty brilliant. I am now a fanboy to the one guy I hated on these boards. Brilliant post, Liu.
 
Time for a newer picture of me. I was tired after a night out, and for some reason decided to take a picture in the bathroom.

Yeah, and any art student will tell you that, physiologically speaking, the average human's eyes are right in the center of their head which is right where this guy's eyes are as well. It's just a matter of his hair being so thin at the top that makes it look like he has such a large forehead when, really, most of us would look exactly the same with as thin of hair.

It's pretty cliche if you ask me. But I've been seeking help for years.
That's pretty much the same thing I've heard every time, just a tad angrier. Which can be expected the way some of us whine constantly on here.
Knowing that you have to change is a big step indeed, but at least someone else can point it out to you. Changing on the other hand...

It's practical and true. Motivation is purely from the inside. I've suffered from depression for years, and even I know that in order for things to get done, you have to do them yourself. No therapist or pill is going to fix that.

Believe me, I've tried.

This has nothing to do with what I'm saying though. Knowing that I have to change doesn't mean I know how to do it.
 
This is from my trip to Orlando (Universal and Islands of Adventure) last week.
I'm the one in blue(rafman400 is the one all the way on the right with the fro)

Well, you (and the rest of GAF) only know what I tell you. I don't really know why I'm the way I am, my life experiences are the easiest answer I can come up with because they always help form our personality when we're young.

To be honest with you, I'm just completely bored of my life and I can't stand the idea of doing the same thing for another 50+ years. I've sat around doing fuck all for most of my life and now I want to do something different. I'm just tired of hearing the same inane conversations about where people are going to go boozing and who fancies who on big brother/Coronation Street/Eastenders... that's all I hear and it's incredibly frustrating to see these people walk around in a trance. I just want to shake them and wake them all up... but that isn't going to happen.

Where about in the UK are you? I'm sure you could move about domestically, maybe even just within your locality, and find whatever intellectual stimulation you seek.

London, it's full of pretentious socialites, bankers and lawyers. I'm sure I can find something to do, but I'll get bored of it eventually... It's going to be impossible for me to settle down. As for why I'm up at 5am every night: I don't have a typical job and I work from home most of the time so there really is no need for me to get up in the mornings, so I go to bed at about 5am and wake up around 2pm... it's mostly done to avoid the boredom that results in myself not having much to do in the mornings and afternoon.
 
Why are you so concerned with what other people are doing?
 
I am glad Phranky doesn't live in America, where an introverted, self-loathing emo dude like himself might have the unfortunate situation of being poorly raised by white trash parents in a house loaded with firearms. A school day for Phranky might have looked something like this:

Well stop giving me a reason to reply then.

The only reason I whine all of the time is because I'm so bored, which is incidentally the only time when I venture onto GAF. I feel like a right fucking idiot anyway; its the fact that I'm an asshole that's the problem in my life not what I look like. I'm fairly successful and have enough money to do whatever I want for a few months, and I got there with the "I'm going to fuck you up and kick your ass if you get in my way" attitude... I just haven't managed to balance that out with the nice guy thing yet.

JUST DONT POST ON GAF ALL DAY.

Oh yeah forgot, you're too smart for that shit and all right?

I don't post on GAF all day... I browse all day and occasionally post.

Anyway, as for what other people have said, I'll try and look at different hair styles... I've been meaning to do that for a while now but I was always a bit unsure about which one to go for.
