Ignorant

There's a lot of times people from a distant group of people, a group of people from another continent for example, think of all people from another continent as being the same because they look similar. For example treating all white people like they are British colonists or Nazis is as ignorant as treating all black people as Muslims, or treating all Asians as Chinese. In some African countries there are hundreds of ethnic groups, too many to count, so thinking that two people would be allies because their skin is darker is a lot like thinking that everyone with fair skin are allies because they both have fair skin in life, instead of going on an individual basis (since most people don't have time to process all this stuff on an individual basis on a daily basis).

Thinking that a group of people looking alike, or similar, means that they are alike or the same is ignorant. Not all groups of Europeans colonized foreign lands and owned/whipped slaves, for example, so calling someone a cracker because they have fair skin is ignorant. When was the last time you met a Russian family that owned black slaves hundreds of years ago. It's a lot like saying that all black people/Africans descended from slaves, or all Asians eat/like Chinese food and are kung fu masters, which is ignorant and irritating at the same time.

God

If there is a god, humans sure are not in the form of god. Animals and plants are closer to the form of god, animals really dont mean each other (or humans) harm. People say they dont mean any harm, but theres really no such thing as a person who doesnt mean any harm. Meaning harm is universally human (being inhuman is universally human). What would there be guns for if people really didnt mean harm (including the gun someone plans to use as self defense against somebody else who means them or their family harm)?

Animals dont have bibles, animals dont have guns, so humans must have created god from some sense of guilt, since animals and plants dont seem to need a god, the sun is good enough for them.

Off the grid

Living in a place where buses, trains, and supply lines don't run. When someone says you're on your own now Jack it's because you really are, even if your name is not really Jack.

Christy-Damn that's a nasty cut on your arm Jack, aren't you gonna go to the doctor and have them take a look at it? Oh yea, what was I thinking there's never been any buses or cabs out here off the grid.
Phil- You never cared that my name is not Jack or that I'm gonna die from this cut soon. You are the doctor god dammit I hope you know what you're doing!

Fasting

Fasting for one day is not physically or mentally unbearable or unendurable, and doesn't cause major health problems for most people, which is why most major religions include fasting as part of their seasonal duties.

The guy/girl was feeling weak after one day of fasting. Fasting for one day is not unbearable, just about anybody, if not anybody can do it. Some people would be glad if fasting was something they did by choice instead of because they have nothing to eat.

Embarrassed

Theres no point in getting embarrassed by something you already did. Shit happens.

Getting embarrassed is like apologizing too much, it doesn't do any good. Fuck the person who read your dirty text and didnt want to.

Disguise

An attempt to conceal someone's identity.

If he recognised her, even with lots of difficulty, it wouldn't be much of a disguise. Being noticed or getting attention for a disguise isn't the point of having one.

Fake jerk

A jerk who's fake.

The one guy got shot for being a real asshole, but the fake jerk would say he was just kidding after everything he said, so that people at the party would think the guy was relatively harmless, like a benign tumor.
