277 Entries for “dysfunctional”

  1. They are a dysfunctional family. Normality was never a choice.
    They are personifications of nations. They can never be normal.
    If they were normal, what would the fun in that be? They have to be abstract.
    They’re abstract because they are made of many people. People have different opinions.
    It makes them dysfuncitonal, as a personification AND a family.
    But they like it that way.

  2. dysfunctional perfection.

  3. someoone who doesnt really have any control of themself. No grip whatsoever. Or a situation like that. chaos. no beginning or end.

  4. My family. Don’t do this, don’t say this. That is what they do. And yet, someone has it worse than I do. Someone has is so badly that they pray each and every day for it to get better. For that, I am thankful. I am thankful that my life isn’t as dysfunctional as it could be. And I am disappointed that this world would have the option of making it the possibly worse and for making people’s lives terrible.

  5. Broken. The opposite of functional. “Boy that guy is not functioning properly”. A group of people (i.e. family) who’s interactions destroy rather than create.

  6. You are a ragtag group. All with different interests, different personalities.
    You are like a family; a dysfunctional one. –Yes, even if some of you ARE related loosely.
    But you all seem to enjoy this: being together.
    You are the Allies, and you are a dysfunctional family.

  8. Every thing in the middle east are dysfunctional , we want a change not on the countries but in the people themselves ….. everybody are negative

  9. Dysfunctional means it isn’t functional or doesn’t work, in this case it means it needs to be kicked or chucked out a window because it’s a pile of shit. Another thing to do with this is try and flog it to somebody by saying it works properly and then run off to a different country and hide. :3

  10. I feel that my life has become somewhat dysfunctional. I’ve let too much grime to get in the gears and now that I’m taking a look at things, im overwhelmed in what I feel will be a lot of work to get myself back into full functionality. But part of the problem that I’ve had has been pushing the pedals in the first place, so here we go. Time to clean, time to pray, and time to push the pedals and go for a long ride that will prime me and hopefully keep me from falling back into disuse.

  11. Dysfunctional families often cause psychological problems for the patient. I would recommend therapy at least once a week for six months, followed by an evaluation. If deemed appropriate, treatment should continue for 1-3 years. I do not believe that one can be healthy in a dysfunctional family, not truly, at least.

  12. when do we know when someone is dysfunctional, in my opinion everyone is functional. Everyone and everything has it’s own function in this world. So lets terminate this word en live a happier and meaningfull life of amazement.

  13. Her hair was Dali’s giraffe, yellow on fire, eyes bleeding want like a paintbrush dipped in red. Her nails were bullets as they scratched down my back and I keened, a cat in the rain. I licked a river in her Sahara neck and pulled flamingo legs over my shoulders; we rutted against each other as screen doors in hurricanes. She came first, and I chased her like thunder does lightning but never succeeded. If I were a god we would have stayed there, just like that, a test shot, a reject, pinned to a cork board and forgotten.

  14. The people who are the most dysfunctional don’t get a lot done in their daily lives. Like my friend Bridgid she doesn’t ever get anything done ever, and she never does her homeworks because she is a total brat who talks non stop. Her head is also full of macaroni and cheese.

    Meredith Simmons

  17. That would be the best way to describe my family. We are not functional not by a long shot. We love each other, we depend on each other, but somehow we’ve become so integrated into each other that we’ve forgotten that there are other people too. Sometimes it’s hard.

  18. Mot everything in life is supposed to be functional, you will see many dysfunctional things to. But don’t forget that also have functions but you persive them to be dysfunctional looking through your perspective.

  19. dysfunctional is a great way to describe my family. We’re not average. My immediate family might be, the ones in my household. But the ones outside of that are most definitely dysfunctional. There are a lot of us, and our family line goes crazy. We’re rockers, writers, and so much more.

  27. Dysfunctional families. Families who fight a lot. Don’t get along. Maybe some people get kicked out. Families that argue about everything or parents are divorced. Children are out of control and don’t listen. Parents may drink or do bad things. Bad influence. Not all right.
