I think I am going to check out for a while
Maybe hours. Maybe days. Thank you all. But I can no longer represent my disgust with the world in terms acceptable on public websites.
My response to a message of concern from another wonderful Jackpiner
________
I am not in a good place and haven’t been for 30 years. I am Harvard educated – J.D., same class as Michelle Obama – and was roundly rejected by every law firm in town because I was born and raised working class. Every place I ever interviewed the first question out of a partner’s mouth was â€where did you go to high school:†I was a high-school dropout who managed to graduate from the University of Minnesota, summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa. That counted for nothing. Nothing. Accepted to nine of ten law schools to which I applied – all but Yale – and I have been a temp document reviewer for almost 20 years. Never stood a chance of a real, permanent job. I wan’t â€acceptable†in polite circles. My retirement plan when the temp work runs out is a bullet in the brain. No friends, no family, no nothing. And I was not only lowborn, it turn out I was on the autism spectrum – Asperger’s. Lost my home and lived in a â€shelter†full of psychotics who pissed in the elevators and shit on the floor for two years.
Yeah, I am bitter, angry and ready to kill the ruling class with my bare hands. I will happily pull the guillotine rope and dance in their blood.
Whatever it takes to destroy the overlords.

This primitive caught my eye because he went out of his way to come across as a pretentious butt-wipe. Now it comes out that he wasn't really very smart (which was already noticeable to any conservative), but was good at taking tests, and has the people skills of an ax murderer.
More.

23. I have sought every kind of help imaginable.
They have all thrown up their hands when it comes to trying to find me a job.
I am an untouchable and utterly unemployable. I am poison, and old, old, old, with zero salable skills despite my fancy degrees. No one can reconcile brilliant academics and absolute failure in the “market.†Harvard JD means I am overqualified for everything.
I am now OK with it, When I die, I die. I hope it it is soon and quick.

20. Tried that.
Out of law school 30 years. Zero practice skills. Zero people skills. Just brains. G0t rejected five minutes after the deadline applying for an attorney job at a left nonprofit three years ago. Taught me never to bother again,

27. Too late, too tired
Time to go away and stop pissing off the pathetic normals. The lot of us should die for their convenience,; they intend to kill us anyway .
We are “useless eaters†according to Clinton and Kissinger.

25. I am a worthless zero
Thanks for the concern, but you can’t change anything, things are what they are.
It's always nice when liberals come to realize just what they're really worth to the rest of the world that's normal. Here's hoping more come to this undeniable truth. :cheersmate:

My time browsing over at the jerkpineradicals was nil until the other day. I noticed right away that hifiguy seemed to be a bit weirder than when he was a regular at the dump. He seems so dark now....

Well... bye.

I don't know. In some deep recess, I see the (D)Ipshits and (D)Umbasses actually understanding something.
Nope. Never mind.
Forget it.

Don't care. End it.
WE DONT CARE. We don't care anything about you, other than your imminent death in a mass (D)sUicide.

Here's a clue - if you post at DU or JPR regularly there is something very wrong with you
Prove me wrong

21. How do we fix this?
I’m convinced it’s fixable, but not overnight. But some things can be fixed quick, just not all.
I know a couple of people who have similar issues – terrifyingly smart, but difficulty bonding with “normalsâ€. And it can get better.
Please consider taking a breath and working with some folks: you have a lot to give to the world, and the world will give back.
Manny, you are in some respects a good egg. But keep in mind that most of your peeps have severe mental issues that kind of keep them from positions that require responsibility.

32. My dear hifiguy
I have felt (and still feel) like a worthless zero myself., and I don’t have your incredible educational attainments. What I do have is bouts of depression every few years.
People our age are screwed as far as job security goers. As far as finding jobs goes.
I’m 64, out of work for 8 years. B.A. in English from a state university. Newspaper reporter for more than 25 years, and then researched and wrote semi-technical articles on energy conservation methods. Searched hard for work for 5 years, gave up and took early Social Security because the feelings of uselessness were practically killing me.
I wonder if you are going through major depression. When I’m in it I feel like a black curtain has been pulled down in front of me, and I can barely move, let alone ask for help, make a phone call, reach out. I see you reaching out through this post, so I have hope that you will look for whatever might help you through this period.
Sending you blessings, good vibes, a few hugs and hope for better things to come.
I'm sure hifiguy appreciates the vibes but to your problem GoodWitch you need a real college degree.

29. Drugs help.
I’m on Benadryl right now (due to the worst allergies I’ve had in months; maybe I’m allergic to the DNC’s antics.) So my mind is fuzzy and I’m pretty much indifferent to it all at the moment. Being less than miserable physically is more important than what’s going on in the rest of the world, and that does make it more bearable ;)
I wish you wellness and will see you when I see you!
Forget Benadryl, skip right to heroin if you haven't already done so.

Yes, hifiguy had a Karl Marx avatar at the DUmp. Like I said on another thread, commies get NO quarter.
Tossed out of an interview five minutes in? Take a hard look at yourself.

They're like slinkies. Not really good for anything, but guaranteed to put a smile on your face when you push one down the stairs.

Y'know, people with even less connected backgrounds in my Big Ten law school got jobs without that kind of flak, in fact almost everybody who passed the bar was probably employed somewhere in a legal profession job within three months of graduating, granted not all in wonderful jobs - being a 'junior associate' anywhere is the legal profession's equivalent of a medical residency, i.e. you work ridiculous hours and others reap the benefit, and it often goes on a lot longer than a residency to boot. Still, even with an unimpressive class standing, a Hahvahd JD would have immediately outcompeted all but an honor grad in those job apps. I would bet your problem was your personality and demeanor, not your background.

Ichingcarpenter is another former DUmmy that has completely lost his mind at JPR, he makes DUmmy Jeffersons Ghost look sane.

He should run for President of the United States. Obama made it, he can too!

Bingo! My first and primary thought while scanning hfg's OP was that something very important - a, if not the, key to his situation - was left out. 30 years ago a JD from Harvard should have been almost a gold-plated meal ticket!
Whatever his mental condition - and he is mental - he's deep in a self-delved hole of anger and bitterness, and has pulled a metal plate over his hole so as to resist ideas for getting out of it.
