Regret

the slow realization that everything you’ve done has left no grateful impact in your life or others. that you cannot make a meaningful impact on the world, that you cannot make a meaningful impact on the people around you and even yourself. when you start remembering the tiniest things you’ve done, the tiniest things you could’ve done. how you used to tell yourself you’d never catch yourself acting like the people you despised, just to see their reflection staring back at you when you look in the mirror. when you realize that you are like every other human being on this planet, that you are no different than others, no better. that there is only one way to end this numbing feeling that will soon gnaw away at you. a solution most people chose that they will regret.

“When I look at you, I regret everything I did to you. Even this. I will soon fill your heart with an indescribable amount of sorrow that will soon lead you to share the emotions I felt. Regret that you didn’t do anything impactful in my life, or the others around you. It will leave you to feel like there is only one way out of this numbing feeling that will soon gnaw away at you.”

Rapture Regret

The feeling of remorse and embarrassment experienced by religious people who make decisions based on the expectation of an impending "Rapture" event, when said event fails to occur.

Keith came around asking for all his stuff back today. Seems the Rapture didn't happen on Wednesday after all. The guy's suffering from Rapture Regret.

commute regret

A feeling of overwhelming ennui when a remote worker arrives at the office in a hybrid workplace. Immediate causes are the "ghost town" effect where the building is so empty it crushes your soul. Additionally sporadic conversation from zoom meetings or people talking about nothing makes you long for your quiet home office.

Joel was okay for the 30 minute commute in, but when he stepped in the door he was overcome with commute regret

Regret

No amount of suffering will ever make me regret a single thing I have said.

Hym "Hey, I do not nor will I ever regret talking about your vermin kids. They are shit. You are shit. You're telling yourself that pedophiles are going to see this and do something other than molest them harder and that's likely wishful thinking at this point. I won't regret this. I won't regret stabbing up some toddler in his mother's arms at a gas station. And I won't let you steal me shit."

Nappers regret

When all you wanted to do was take a quick nap but instead you slept for three hours and you are incredibly confused and cranky.

Tim had a long day and wanted to nap for thirty minutes but instead slept on for four hours! He's probably suffering from Nappers regret.

Tim: Fuck! I'm even more tired than before. I've got Nappers regret...
