Activity: ...doing fuck all... Mood: ...when I'm feeling a bit low Companion(s): Probably on my own How depressing and demoralising so, like a wallowing in self pity playlist - do you find it is comforting, or kicks your ass and gets you going again (i don't know any of the songs, you see)
StanSP Posted 30 March 2009 Posted 30 March 2009 so, like a wallowing in self pity playlist - do you find it is comforting, or kicks your ass and gets you going again (i don't know any of the songs, you see) Wouldn't say wallowing in self-pity - more like a reminiscent kinda thing. Like looking back on things (mainly love-based things). It's mainly comforting. Listening to songs like these has done more comforting than inspiration .
