Okayed Pain

Blood is thicker then water, a phrase we hear from the time were little kids. What exactly is it that supposed to mean? For the word family has changed, the term blood has become so deranged. Blood is thicker then water is just another way to lay a claim to some sick demented attempt at not having to deal with the blame. Too many use that phrase to play hurtful and deadly games, cuz you always hurt those closest to you. That's supposed to be okay and make all the pain inflected go away? That's ****ing lame and I hold nothing but shame in that pathetic game. What kind of world are we creating when our kids are finding out that "blood is thicker then water" is just a pretty way to say "its okay" for your family to hurt you that way. My family has done no more then shatter my soul and has turned my blood to run so cold, that i have no shame in my claim to a family that don't share even the same last name. Blood IS thicker then water, IF it's just blood and just water, but our blood is thinner now a days and water just ain't water. I have taken and challenged the blood running in my "biological" family's veins to the water my "real" family's got coursing thru theirs and trust me they are no where near, the ****ing same. So where I will stake my claim is in the water I prefer to have in my veins, for it is much thicker then the blood that used to okay such a pure pain. My family and I have discovered that the base to 90 weight gear oil is water and our water is much thicker then your phony ass blood claim. I know at least they'll be there to pick me up after that "family, blood is thicker then water" bull s***t ass game is played leaving me asking, "why is it that lame ass game is played over and over again like its okay to cause me such excruciating pain.
