As you can tell from the title, I am currently in rage mode. I've been meaning to write a post about this for a while but I haven't been in the right mode to rant. I'm not really in that mood at the moment but I figure I can rant about it whenever I think about this topic.
Also, I'm sorry that my posts are now inconsistent. I started school last Tuesday and can say that these posts will probably remain like this unfortunately. However, I'll talk about a few more topics in the coming posts.
As for this rant, BGGSYVDHGVRHJ. - breathes heavily - I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMOREE!!!!
For the past month, I have noticed significantly the change in your "asking" and it truly and honestly disgusts me. Instead of asking for favours, you act as if you're superior to everyone by going over the limit.
Personally, off the top of my head, there are 2 conditions as to why I would do a favour for you: 1. I happen to be going to a destination where I can do this favour for you OR am going there to do the same thing. 2. I'm doing it because I know how much work you already have or are busy with any other type of work. I feel that these 2 conditions are around where your average "favouring" should be, if that's a word...
And that is why I can't believe your mind set. It is completely LUDICROUS!! I'm NOT going to GO OUT OF MY WAY to do a favour for you when you're just going to sit there, doing NOTHING!! I'M NOT YOUR SLAVE. YOU DON'T "OWN" ME. I WILL NOT go upstairs to charge your phone, when you're not doing anything nor am I going upstairs. I WILL NOT look for the TV remote for you when you haven't even attempted to look for it yet and am not in the room. I WILL NOT help you open a small paper box for the soap bar that you use JUST because you left in on the tub. I CAN'T STAND YOU!!
I will not be taken advantage of because your lazy ass won't get up from sitting down. Yes, you have a job. I don't. Yes, you buy the groceries. I don't. Yes, you earn the majority of the money for this household. I don't.
BUT, WHO WASHES THE DISHES ALMOST EVERYDAY? WHO SPENDS ATLEAST HALF AN HOUR TO HELP OUT WITH DINNER? WHO MAKES AN EFFORT AT SCHOOL? WHO TRIES TO IMPROVE IN SUBJECTS BY STUDYING AND READING? WHO DOES CHORES EVERY SINGLE WEEK?
ME. IT IS ME. I'm a 15 year old girl and have felt BURDENED by having parent-like duties for the longest time, not because I want to, but because if I don't do these things I'LL be yelled at for "not doing anything" and I KNOW that one person will have to do ALL of these duties. And that person isn't you, which is why you could care less. I actually CARE because I understand the work.
Oh yeah. That's right. The last time I checked, these duties take lots of time to do, which is physically unattainable by MONEY.
That reminds me: Money isn't everything. If you were to leave, I could still survive. Unlike y=mx+b, I will not be the "y" who depends on you(x). Yes, I will not have a home as nice as this nor will have as large of an income but I will survive much stronger than you ever will because I have and will learn many skills that will help me strive while you "hire" people to do the everyday things that I and one other person have done for you. You disgust me.
While writing this post, it helped me express myself which I am ecstatic for, but, it also arised many feelings surrounding this topic. Sorry if it felt like I was yelling at you, I just had to write it in second-person in order to set the right attitude towards this topic.
Oh and I would appreciate it if the "you" person is not mentioned in the comments even if you have an idea of who it is.
This was a very wary topic for me to rant about but I just had to get it out of me. In spite of this, I would like to end this off with, I WILL NOT BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF!
Bye for now.

I've wanted to do a rant like this for a while now. Not necessarily directed towards the same audience as yours, but there are a lot of people who could benefit from knowing that we're really all equal. At least, we should be.
