47 Entries for “specific”

  1. how is it possible that you are specifically unspecific? you told her, you wouldn’t hurt her anymore, but you did not do what you said. you’re the complete opposite of what you said you are. how do you aim all of your ammo at her and expect her to still raise your own kids? you fight her because you make up what you want. you hurt her because you don’t believe that the choice she made was, in your words, “the best”. how arrogant can you be if you don’t want your own wife to be happy? you made a promise that you and she would love each other to the end, but you’re the only one who loves her. she doesn’t love you anymore and if you took your head out of your Giant ego, you might be able to see that. all you want is control and “order” but when you try to control us, you just make us hate you so much more. you’ve yelled at us for the last time, so do us all a favor and leave while you still have what little humanity left

  2. This word means that one thing may be more important than another. That something may be more personal and a favorite over another to someone. This word can be used for a certain type of writing

  3. Person A: “Make sure you’re very specific about what goes where.”
    Person B: “Geez. So much pressure.”
    Person A: “The specifics are the only thing that matter in this job. It is the sole reason we exist,
    to be specific at a specific time every day.”
    Person B: “But why? Why are the specifics so damn important? It is nerve wracking!”
    Person A: “Because you’re a damn mailman Jeff! Get it together!”

  4. If the non-specifics paint the picture then the specifics tell the story. The truth is always in the details and the details grow more specific as you get closer and closer to the final answer.

  6. life is all about happiness and I am trying to find it out. I have an amazing family but at times, I feel that they are not able to understand me.
    It looks like I am not able to connect to them and they to me. it’s like being in a professional relationship, not personal.

  10. those words uttered before
    rang true again in my heart

    were wise to seek the silence

    in that moment
    you find yourself

  11. Be specific when you write an story. Write what you mean, and not one word over. Describe in depth and detail the event that is happening, have character’s actions be specific and detailed in a magical, specific way.

  12. She had blue eyes, the color of sea foam. Her hair was a dark chocolate color, with little strands of gold running through it. She had a specific style, very easy breezy, with a sense of sass. She stood out.

  13. I decide to play dirty and ransom the promise of a timely meal.

    “Touch me like this and I swear I will get up and make us dinner.” I mime a series of specific motions and he complies for barely a moment. It’ll have to be enough to sustain me.

    In the kitchen I wash the carrots and celery. It comes as a surprise to find him suddenly behind me, shifting my hair to the side and teasing with only the lightest kisses and nibbles down my neck. I hadn’t mimed this particular caress, but I lean back into his chest and encourage him to keep improvising nonetheless.

  14. The specifics aren’t known as of yet, but downtown Wheresville has been rocked by what appears to be a series of massive explosions and the resultant fires, as you can see behind me here Brooke… Appalling…

  15. “Be specific!” This was the advise given to me when I talked about my goals to my mentor. He told me that goals are easy to think but being specific about it is the key to achieve it or else it would be just a dream.

  16. Lines zero in to a single point. Impossibly small. Unimaginably small. Seriously don’t try to imagine it. You’ll hurt yourself. The point becomes a line, no, an arrow, shooting forward with infinite velocity. Where will it go? It will go forward. And it will keep going. There’s no stopping it now.

  17. “That’s not right,” she said, pointing at a carefully selected spot on the diorama. “That can’t be right. It’s wrong. It just is.”

    “What are you talking about?” he said, barely looking. It wouldn’t have made much of a difference if he had been. What she was pointing to was barely visible to the naked eye.

  18. I can say very detailed things i need or want but it seems to not be clear enough. maybe its my problem, maybe it is other peoples problem. but in the end i am not happy. i dont want to blame anyone so i usually just take it up on my own and i know its unhealthy,

  19. are you or aren’t you
    reflexively reactionary
    to specific social meaning
    tweeting, my god
    into the ether
    hoping a response fills you
    with endorphins
    engorging
    discouraging
    disquieting
    never the same again.

  20. nothing i say will ever mean anything i am all empty promises and vague threats and desperate incoherent begging there is no clarity no specificity down here in this ancient darkness where truths go to die

  21. unable to specify unable to construct an accurate definition there are infinite meanings and finite words so how can i hope to specify anything when my tools are so inherently lacking better to stay silent than to speak in approximations better to bury oneself than to live an inexact life

  22. Certain topic:
    Pizza: Smothered with cheese and topped with all the fixings, pepperoni, sausage, and ham.

  23. I’m glad that there are specific ways to do things, because could you imagine what it would be like if everyone did something their own way instead of the way it was supposed to be done?

    by abbie on 02.21.2018
  24. Miscommunications happen because we are not specific.
    Unless it is necessary, we must not be vague in what we want.
    To be vague is to be misunderstood, which would lead to conflict.
    So I say, if you want to get your point across, just be specific.

  25. Why was it that specific person?…… It could have been anyone, but it just so happened to be that specific person at that specific time.

  26. Specificisms escape the mind as easily as water flows down the gutter — it is so easy to lose things, as memory goes, too rushed and rapid to flow into tight spaces. There are places that even the thinnest of creeks cannot reach. There are things thinner than straws that no matter how much you rake you can never hope to recover.

  27. Jedi was a bit strange. She didn’t have many friends and being strange was a reason for that. People didn’t exactly dislike her, they just found her a bit, odd. She was very specific about things, She didn’t really deviate from her way of thinking.

  28. Well, it’s something you have to be sometimes.

    Other times it can be a detriment to a conversation.

    I guess that’s really all I can say about it.

    by Drew Allen on 02.21.2018
  29. To be detailed, not generic. Be specific in prayer, be specific in direction. Be clear about our intentions, your motives, your wishes. Be specific to God’s heart.

  30. when i was younger i had a specific thing i asked for every year on xmas but after a while i got it

  31. “I need you to be specific.”
    “I am being as specific as I know how to be, I don’t think this is something that can be any more specific.”
    “Try.”
    “I’m not trying to be difficult…”
    “Take your time.”
    “This isn’t helping me. Aren’t you supposed to help?”

  32. It was dark that morning as she stood there on the empty train platform, with a chill still in the air. She hadn’t asked for the specifics of why he had asked her to come, and had regretted not doing so as soon as the phone was hung up. Still, she satisfied herself with knowing that she would find out soon enough, so long as the train wasn’t much more late.

  33. It’s awfully specific. That’s what I told him when he explained his business plan to me. He kept going and going on about how this app was going to change everyone’s lives, how the smallest details engrained within the app were going to drastically change the users’ perspectives and ideas. I didn’t believe him.

  35. When would you like to go? You need to be specific. I had planned a visit at some point, the date and time are not yet settled; my plans can move, it is all a little liquid. There is still a lot to do, I can’t hold on to everything, waiting for you to come around.

  36. blah

  37. I love everything about you.

    You’re going to have to be more specific.

    But I can’t be. I just…I love everything about you.

    Everything?

    Everything.

    I…kind of find that hard to believe.

    What’s hard to believe about it?

    You can’t possibly love EVERYTHING about me.

    Oh, yeah? Try me.

    Okay, well…I pick my nose when you’re not looking.

    Huh. Okay.

    Yeah.

    Then I love mostly everything about you.

    Oh, boy. Yeah, I’m gonna have to keep going down the list, aren’t I?

  38. To be specific, one must go into detail. I like to think that would make instructions clear. A specific type of thing to do, to follow through. A specific breed of fish to find at the zoo. Specific brand of tea, not the one that is green. It takes a specific kind of person to be able to do this feat. [I am resubmitting, because this is my only entry ever made and I do not want to be associated with the other Leanns seen when you click on my name.]

  39. I had to be specific with him. He would not take the hint. I said “no” five times before he got the message. I had nothing more to say to him. He left me me no other choice. He could not have his cake and eat it too. I had been in to man relationships like this one. I learned my lesson to many times. Now I needed to take my self seriously.
