RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Honesty

I went to the deli next to our school today and ordered a green apple jones soda and peanut butter cups. I made sure to ask for a dollar's worth of change because I had to take the bus home. The lady gave my change and then a dollars worth in quarters. Being the quick head math whiz that I am, I told her she gave me an extra dollar and gave it back. The person behind me called me nice and said I was honest. The two guys behind her called me an idiot who wasn't going to get anywhere in this world.

I have my own stance on this but as many many people have complained to me, I'm an idealist and can't expect everyone else to be.

The question:

Is it really so ridiculous to try and play an honest role in modern society?

Let's do the time warp again!

its just a dollar, nothing wrong with taking it. maybe if there was a lot more money at stake it would be good to give it back, but the way i see it lying is just another tool people can and should use to survive.

Well, a good lie.
A dollar doesn't matter, but serious things like getting in trouble, people have problems seeing the difference when it comes to whites lies and bad lies when it's their ass on the line.

why? sometimes a lie can save your life. and all that guidance counselor bullshit about how lies will always be exposed, well i can tell you from experiance that that's a lot of crap. you just have to get good at it. just like morality, whether a lie is "good" or "bad" depends on the opinion of who's telling it.

I don't think it's ridiculous to be honest. It's ridiculous that those people had such a problem with you giving the dollar back. My question is: why did it bother them so much?

People criticize idealists because, while their ideas may be good, they won't work in modern society. I see this as a condemnation of modern society, not idealism.

Lying for unfair gain is unethical. By unfair, I mean for reasons other than absolute or practical necessity. It is unethical because it denies the freedom of others. Intentionally lying or deceiving creates false thoughts in others. These false thoughts deny the freedom to make informed decisions. Lying also treats people solely as a means to and end.

This reminds me of this one time I was with a friend at a KFC Drive Thru... He ordered some small chicken thing, and when the order came, they gave us this huge bucket of chicken which cost like 10x as much as what my friend actually ordered. So I was all like "errr did you order thi...", and then he gave me this weird grin and nodded at the guy handing us the bucket, making sure he thought that was indeed the right order. Laugh

Well, him and his bro couldn't finish all that chicken themselves so they shared it with a lot of people... and I was pretty hungry so I didn't complain Razz I feel sorry for the KFC dude who got the order mixed up though, I only found out later that they'd probably have made him pay for it... None

that's sort of a paradox that you said. if lying is unethical because it restricts other's freedom, that means you consider freedom to be important. but at the same time, you support a system of ethics that restricts freedom a lot more than lying. i think that lying can restrict freedom, but in some cases it can't. and remember, other people can lie too, so its not like you're taking power away from them. i think that there's nothing inherently wrong with lying, its only as evil as what its used for. like in this case, restricting a person's freedom a tiny bit in order to break free of an ethical system that's even more restrictive is ok, because its the lesser of two evils.

The freedom to do what? Screw people over when you feel like it? ... Or was that a bit too blunt? Razz

EDIT: But I agree that lying to save your own or someone else's life can be good depending on the circumstances. It all depends who you're lying to Razz

right, it can be helpful. and since its ok to lie sometimes, then making huge general rules like "lying is evil" is the opposite of freedom. so by lying, you help to fight that mentality. what you consider to be "screwing someone over" may not be what someone else does. and saying that your opinions are right and others' are wrong is, of course, not something we support. i consider ethics to be just another form of control, one that should be fought the same as any other.

OK, my take on this matter is very broad. If something you can say or do is going to hurt someone in some way, it's probably a bad thing. If it's a choice between hurting the one or the other, then you've got a bit of a dilemma on your hands Razz

In my case, it's a personal rule. I'm not telling you not to lie. You do what you think is right (or whatever). Ethics are good as long as you don't try to force your ethics on anyone else. If someone wanted me to be honest about something that I didn't want to tell them about, I'd have to tell them that I don't want to tell them and be honest about that. That's just me.

I used to lie to people when they asked me about things I didn't want to tell them. It got annoying because I couldn't remember who I told what Giggle ... it's less hassle to just avoid issues you don't want to deal with rather than make stuff up.

But I'm straying out of context here...

Personally, if I noticed I got extra change, I'd tell the person about it because I don't need the extra change. But since we're on the topic, what if I took that extra change and went and gave it to some homeless person... would that make it right? (assuming it was wrong to take it)

right, but the thing is that everybody has a different set of ideas about what's right and wrong. just because one person thinks lying is wrong doesn't mean it actually is. as said before, it all depends on the situation. in your example with the homeless person, then yeah it would be right, in my point of view at least. but the way i see it, making ethical "rules" and punishing other people for not following them (as long as their actions aren't harming you) is just like what the government does. better to just avoid the whole quagmire or sorting through what's right and wrong in a million different scenarios and just let people do what they want in an anarchist environment where nobody supresses anyone else, and the smartest and most skilled at whatever, thrive and survive. i see any form of control, including ethics, as detrimental to freedom. sure, it does some good. but the potential problems of a controlling system like that outweigh it.

first of all, what do you mean by "anarchy government"? that really doesn't make sense.

second, i think i've said this before, but the smart would survive because they're best at it. the strong would be outmatched (thanks to our good friend firearms) and there wouldn't be any rich and powerful. yes, there would be violence at first. but i consider that an acceptable risk.

That's false. Check out the Spanish Revolution. Pretty much all towns were either anarchist or Marxist.

Why does ethics have to be a controlling system? If I decide I want to be honest, those are my ethics and I can abide by them if I decide to. So personally I think honesty is a good thing, but I'm not telling you that you're bad if you disagree... am I? I mean, lying isn't illegal, so nobody's really going to try and force you to be honest (not based on the law anyway). But then that's people's ethics, and you don't have to listen to them if you disagree. I like to be in control of myself. I wouldn't like to be in control of anyone else though. Capitalism and politicians seem to thrive on lying, so there's no doubt it's useful... But it's my personal choice not to use those methods, because I don't like them.

having your own ethics systme is fine. but when a society develps a universal one, and then tells everybody to abide by it, thats just one small step towards dictatorship. what happens when it becomes unethical to criticize the government? or for gays to marry? or a million other stupid rules that they would now have the power to make? i'd rather just avoid that whole mess, and just let people do whatever the hell they want and only hurt them if they were harming me, or someone i cared about.

I don't like thinking of some divine moral law; I don't see any reason to believe in one. I lie when lying is beneficial, and I don't when it is not. The main times I lie are when I'm playing a joke on someone and when I'm trying to avoid boring or annoying conversation.

Here are reasons not to lie:
  • Lying makes me try to hide that I lied, which can be stressful.
  • People may trust me less if they find out that I lied to them.[/list:u]

    So this is how I generally lie to people or act "dishonest":
    • I tell my parents that I was doing homework so I don't have to explain what the math team does.
    • I get extra change, and I don't have time to tell the cashier that she messed-up, so I don't say anything.[/list:u]

      That said, I still have some sort of fear of making direct lie for non-humor reasons. For example, I could say that I didn't get drunk last night, and this could mean that I got drunk early this morning before gonig to sleep. (Just so you know, I don't drink.) Instead of lying directly, I try to be unclear so that I can say that I didn't actually lie. I think this is mostly a habit that I would like to break.

The Subject Matter

What started the conversation, however, was how the OP was criticized for NOT lying.

I mean, ethics are, for the sake of simplicity, a form of rules that one uses to govern oneself. It may, in fact, imply that lying is MANDATORY, and that to not do so is an act of...cowardice, let's say. While you can impose one set of ethics, it's also possible to be imposed upon.

Also, one of the hidden benefits of honesty is that you do not fall into the trap of believing your own lies. It's simple if you're just taking mis-counted change. It's complicated if you've created, say, a book of propaganda.

In fact, some people are pathological liars, lying for no reason other than the compulsion to lie.

Things to consider when questioning the how and why of lying.

Honesty is the best policy! An honest man you can trust to keep his word and do what's right, dishonesty is like a disease, first it's white lies then soon enough you're lying big. That's human nature, snowball effect my friends, snowball effect.

Seriously, lying isn't worth my life. Of course I've never been in that situation before...

i lie when it doesn't hurt anyone and benefits me. i also lie when i feel i need to so i don't get into trouble i don't deserve. an example would be when my mom asks if i've done my homework. if i say no (the truth) she gets bitchy at me, but if i lie then i avoid that and i don't feel guilty because i don't deserve it.

a dollar lost won't hurt anyone, but i wouldn't usually take it unless the person could afford to lose it. it usually isn't worth the time.

RE: Honesty

It's said that some people are too honest.

I consider myself an honest person. I'm generally bad at making lies, so I avoid lying. Not only that, but lying where it is not needed and might be harmful often leaves a sick feeling in my stomach as well. It makes me feel really bad. I'm often open about discussing my thoughts, unless they're extremely personal and feel it's better for me to think about it.

Sometimes I say things that are rather inappropriate to the situation. Sometimes I feel that I need to state what I say. I feel to simply just agree with what's going on is slightly mind-oppressing and bad for discussion. That's just the way I am.
