You have played exactly 234 bullet games too many. Please fix that first before claiming "I have tried everything I can".
Hasn't the OP played only 233 bullet games?
Also, playing bullet more than rapid/daily is just a horrible idea. If you quit bullet and replace it with rapid/daily games and analyze your games, find where you go wrong, rest assured you will see a significant rating jump.
GM often plays bullet. However. A lot of people misunderstood one point: they don't play bullet to train. They play bullet to stream and to gain more fan support via social network. That is how they make $$$ from contract with big companies like Naka with RedBull

It is not exactly bad to play bullet games, he should just play more rapid and daily.
Actually bullet is worse than "a waste of time" if you want to improve.
I'd have to say you're right and wrong. To improve, well it might not help you become a master, but it after you are pretty good at chess, you should try bullet. Why? Because masters play bullet matches too, which is part of chess. But I do say that it won't improve your rapid games very much...
Masters play bullet so beginners should try bullet!
What an absolute nonsense!
Bullet is not part of chess, it's not even chess.
And there is no master that takes bullet seriously.None considers it chess.
So should he try every nonsense masters do?
IF it is not chess then WHY did they make it up? If I made a new variant and then it become official, it WOULD be chess.
Pfren: Bullet wont help you improve, in fact it's detrimental
Snow-Wolf: I somewhat disagree. Bullet doesn't help you improve, but it's fun for masters.
Me: So... where's the disagreement?
Kind of, but however people think, bullet is chess.

Remind me of math genius kids who can calculate "faster" than the calculator but had not yet contribute anything to the world of science. Likewise in chess, people can play and win a game under 1 minute often think that they are good at chess. However, the sad truth is, most of them do not have a title. And the interesting part is, titled players never suggest bullet chess as a training method.

I find everything in that sentence right. Thanks... Now back to the OP's problem.

Ok.
And everything in the world is either a potato, or not a potato.
Very true words, I like your quote.

As Abraham Lincoln said, ''If slavery is not wrong, then nothing is wrong'' I don't get the idea behind this quote.
As my friend Levi always says, "Uh...".

It's rhetorical. It means he strongly feels slavery is bad.

I somehow disagree with you. Bullet should just be played for fun. I've heard some people say that it rots your brain. Bullet ratings don't matter. Yes even if bullet is bad you have to make a lot of pre moves to win still. I recommend If you want to still play bullet but be tactical, 1 minute to mate by Hikaru Nakamura .
As my friend Levi always says, "Uh...".
As my anonymous friend said, never trust people who say ''Uh...''.
Why are all these quotes so truthful?
Pfren: Bullet is not good for improvement
1400136896: I disagree. Bullet is just for fun
Me: here we go again...
I want to improve more than playing for “fun”. However I enjoy chess when I am improving.
That's why enjoyment is important: improvement happens over the course of years.
If you try to improve dramatically in months you'll burn yourself out.
This isn't just with chess, it's with any skill.
But if you have a routine, and you enjoy it, then one day you'll wake up and 10 years has gone by already.

Also GMs are not beginners or club level. Bullet is harmful for developing players(specially beginners).
