  • I'd much rather be used...as a sex toy by a harem of beautiful women.

      You know, as a harem guard you get to have sex with everyone, but they'll also do something to you that gives you a wonderful singing voice.

      If it's sexual, well that's a different story.

    Useless. Then people would leave me alone to sit in a corner with my Lego.

      Then you wouldn't be entirely useless, because the lego would need you.

      Legos make the imagination a reality:)

        Aww, you've made me feel like they are my pets. And now I want to build a motorised Lego dog. :D

      I just got the funniest mental image of you (though I have no idea what you look like) sitting in a corner, playing with Lego, giggling, occasionally chewing a piece.

    Used.
    This would imply that I have value, and I would rather have value and bad taste in company (which is a trait that I could easily change) than feel useless, which is a trait that people in the US spend millions of dollars (hell, billions) each year in an attempt to get rid of.

      This exactly. You explained it really well.

    I feel both a lot of the time...though I feel useless more often.

    They're both awful but I picked useless. Probably because I'm so used to it hah. Plus used just has that extra bitterness to it, an it makes you feel more than useless - it leaves you feeling worthless and drained.

    Used, definitely!
    Wait, this is not sexual, is it?

    In that case...still used -_- e.g. by friends or work...:
    being useless makes me restless, being used at least makes me feel good about myself.

    Well, this is a hard one... I must ponder and let my thoughts ferment like grape juice.

  • Useless. I can't stand the feeling of being outsmarted (or in other words, used).

    Used. If I am used, that means I have a positive quality that I am being used for. I would rather that then have no positive qualities at all!

    Also, if it is in a sexual way, used sounds pretty awesome actually!

    If it's sexual then useless, if not then still useless.

    Feeling used doesn't feel fair, but feeling useless puts a huge burden on my shoulders and I feel like everyone is judging me for it. I can usually find a positive spin to feeling used, but not so much for feeling useless.

    Used, because at least I'd be helping someone out.

    Depends on what I'm being used for. Used to kill people? I'd rather feel useless. Used to get ice cream? I'd rather feel used.

    Useless. Here's why....In situations that I've felt useless, it did positive things for me....inspired me to learn something, try harder, do more...I just look at it as a way and reason to improve. It motivates me.

    Getting used is a dumb situation that you can't un-do and also can't turn positive so easily and it can spawn a lot of negative things, such as a pattern of getting used, depression, feelings of worthlessness (that don't go away as easily as feeling useless), feeling stupid, regret...etc. Used people generally feel (get) used a lot, it's not usually a one time, or rare, thing.

    That's how I personally feel, of course everyone looks at it differently.

    I would rather feel like the one doing the using.

    Used. It's a lot less extreme. It could mean something as little as someone coming up to me to talk just to pass some time while waiting on their ride to arrive. That isn't so bad.

    Neither one feels good, but the hurt from feeling used I think can be easily overcome.

    Used. Being used can take a positive spin. Whereas feeling useless makes me depressed.

    People actually liking being used? This right there is what's fucked up about society. That's why the government is using us so much for their NWO. At least with being useless, you have your dignity and respect. Plus, just take E and the feelings of being useless are gone. The feeling of being used doesn't go away no matter how much E you take.

      For two years, I worked with special needs adults ranging from mildly disabled to completely unable to care for oneself without assistance. I truly believe that they would all disagree with you. There is no dignity in feeling useless.
