I'm hopelessly addicted to Starbucks now, thanks entirely to my work supervisor.
Recently I've managed to motivate myself to start working out and doing cardio again. In addition, I've been trying to break the habit of sleeping late; however, I still find myself staying up later than I should from time to time.
I'm sorry to hear that, Nomad. I hope you'll get better soon.
??? Don't we already have a sticky thread where you can lay down your thoughts and achievements?

I am becoming gravely concerned at the growing number of stickies again. >:(
I became addicted to frappuccinos while I was working at my last/current-on-hiatus/whatever full-time job. I recommend trying out the café vanilla frappuccinos; though if someone who doesn't know what they're doing makes it it won't be all that great, but a good one is amazing.
Also this one theoretically should be less insane. Also, SHUT UP THORK GET YOUR OWN DAMN THREADShould I make a thread about what people did today as well and insist it is also a sticky? Why don't we just sticky all the threads? Can we do that? Someone task Tausami with this project.

I haven't seen one by that name, I do get a vanilla bean frappuccino. Similar/same thing?

This is not sticky material. If people like the thread it will stay near the top. If its crap, it will sink into oblivion until Saddam periodically dives into the forum and swims back up to the surface with this turd in between his teeth. It doesn't need to be stickied.
*On topic. Today I was pissed off at all the unimportant stickies I found on FES.
Same thing, only vanilla bean has no coffee in it. That one's more or less just a vanilla smoothie.

I've submitted about 50 job applications and gotten 4 interviews. Still no job yet.
Ugh.
I have to figure out why I only have 2.5 vacation days after working over a year. (I'm supposed to have 10).
A trip to HR may be in order.

Just dropped about 2 grand on surgery for my cat. He has a urinary problem where his pee hole gets blocked. It was the third time in two years, so I had to get the surgery to completely fix it (hopefully).I didn't know cats are worth 2g's......I hope he feels better soon.
I'm glad to have him home, but the next 10 days will be rough with him. Worst week ever.
I am working tonight, much like most nights.You put in five applications? Wow. You must be doing something wrong. I put in one application, and a company actively fought to get me away from my old employer. Maybe instead of getting to know your prospective employer, you should get to know their entire industry. :PI've submitted about 50 job applications and gotten 4 interviews. Still no job yet.
I submitted about five job applications, got one interview (would have got a second if I didn't turn it down due to already having a job) and got one job in 2010. You must be doing something wrong.
Edit: On second thoughts, what you're doing wrong is submitting 50 job applications. Take the time to learn about each employer you're applying for, and put in the effort to show them you've done that. 10 really great applications will get you further than 50 average ones.

Isn't there a process you can go through to clear that up? Although I don't know if you've already made arrangements with your ex about how you're going to handle custody or whatever.

Actually, she is referring to a music style created and made popular at the East African Coast by Joseph Ngala. It fuses traditional Portuguese music genres, Arabic influenced taarab music, jazz and music genres of local coastal Bantu languages. It resembles easy listening music styles of Latin america such as bossa nova and music styles of many Indian Ocean Islands such as Seychelles and Mauritius.Correct.

I had a bit of a panic attack this morning over my cat, he wasn't peeing and I thought he was having complications with the surgery.
I feel so lucky that my vet is a long time friend of mine and she was willing to come over and check on him. He's been peeing somewhere, I'm just not sure where, possibly the bathtub since he's been sleeping in there.
I think I'm going to need a prescription for Zanex or something. Usually he is annoying the crap out of me but now I just want him better. :'(

Oh, no, she ended up being fine. Morphine overdoses have to be quite serious to actually kill someone. Still, though, WTF? She's a 15-year-old freshman at the nerdiest school in the state, and she's fucked half of the junior class and overdosed on an opiate already

A spine that connects to your own. Anyway this thread is about making you feel better so maybe its just a twin and you aren't triplets?

Our kitty just turned one. Last night I slept on the couch cause A&A was sick and kitty ran circuits over my body. -_-He is probably just happy that A&A is sick. Cats have a sixth sense about people.
He's usually pretty annoying at night but I guess he was doubly excited that I was in the living room.

I should really wash the dishes, too. I've been using the same plate, glass, mug and utensils for like two weeks which I wash whenever I need to use them. :-\
The rest is all piled up around the apartment.
I cook, clean, and take care of babby. Fear me, I'm nomadad!I would not be a good beardad. :(
I washed the dishes, yay me. I keep wussing out of going to the pub by myself but I need to make some friends here :(
What job do you have anyway, Nomad?
I bet you're also excited for the chance to do donuts in a new ambulance.
I drank way too much, I don't remember anything after kareoke, but it was fun so I don't care.Are you crazy woman, anything could have happened to you. What about gay gay? you should be more careful for her sake.

So our apartment complex gym just got one of those multi unit machines in. Before I've just been running for awhile but now I've been thinking about building some muscle. Not nasty muscle, tasteful muscle. What do you guys think?Anavar. (http://www.steroids.org/Anavar.php)
So our apartment complex gym just got one of those multi unit machines in. Before I've just been running for awhile but now I've been thinking about building some muscle. Not nasty muscle, tasteful muscle. What do you guys think?
I tried doing chin ups on someone's chin up bar this weekend. I am weak, I could only do a few before falling to the floor, gentle weeping at my weakness.
Toned muscle can be tasteful on a woman, just be sure to have SOME fat on your body too. My cousin is like 115 of muscle, bone, and skin and she looks disgusting. And not just because she's my cousin and I have an innate block in my mind from thinking she's attractive because that's gross and socially unacceptable.Icky, no. I'm aware of the very fine line between attractive and unattractive muscle.

Swim. It gives women an awesome body. Also, I think you are going to regret the decision to post yourself in skimpy gear. I'm mean its nice and all, but Parsifal.Bathing suits are fairly legit, not too skimpy.
Also, I think the dog is staring at your arse.
Alright, so I'm getting more committed to this light weight body building idea every day. Since I don't have a legit gym membership because I'm poor, I'll mostly try to tone up through traditional ways (running, tennis, swimming, exercises at home, etc.) and no special dieting. I do have an advantage because I'm starting off already skinny at about 120 lbs. Now all you pervs can see my totally unimpressive body and hopefully within a few months I'll go crazy and start taking steroids.

Why do you suddenly look 10 years older?As opposed to what pictures? I've posted some older pics on here before. But other than that- shorter hair and shitty cam quality?
Probably. Or maybe you're just secretly 35.You are probably the only person in the world who thinks I look older than 23. I don't know whether I should be happy or offended.

That's the thing, though. In your other pics you do look 23-ish, but in this one your face looks significantly older. It could very well be the cam quality, or that your other pics are in reality a lot older.

The refusal of Fayetteville junior Anna Watson to take on a modelling contract worth $75000 annually because it would require her to take steroids has earned her a lot of fame and reputation. She was scheduled to appear in ABC’s “good morning America” a while back, when she explained her reasons of turning down the contract. She turned down the offer because she would have had to take anavar which is used to increase strength and muscle mass in the bodies of the users.
That girl is on anavar at the least. To have thrown on 4 inches around her biceps in just 10 months is not human. A man can't do that. Even one who goes to the gym every day and knows everything there is to know about training. My guess is that beast has done herself a cycle of Winstrol instead. But either way, she's not natural.Maybe she's a lesbian.

Got doored by a taxi driver yesterday. Ouch. A good few scrapes and lumps (my right elbow looks like a bomb crater that's trying to heal itself), but I'm still in one piece. The bike is mostly okay, but the left shifter (the side he clipped me on) is thoroughly broken.That sucks. Glad you're okay.

Somehow today goes from me in a low mood and trying to get through the day to me in a low mood and spending the whole day trying to help two people find a reason to live—one considering suicide, the other just feeling hopeless about everything. Don't manage to talk the first out of it and she's gone off for the night, and the other is still pretty much the same. I suck at helping people. I know what it's like to be there yet I still can't do a single thing and I feel like a hypocrite trying to give the whole "it gets better" speech. I try to stay away from that as I know what a shitty attempt at consolation it is, but every other route lead to a dead-end. As a result, I feel much, much worse than I already did at the start of today/yesterday/whatever. What started with a little consolation as at least not being a horrible day has now progressed to being a more-than-just-horrible day.

Not sure. Was a bit too shaken to check. His door left me with a nice shifter-bill though. However, I have insurance, so hopefully it'll be okay.

The conspiracy is trying to kill you. Stay safe, Wilmore.
A large man with fair hair wearing sunglasses and a dark coat approached me while I was in Gothenburg, grabbed me by the shoulder, and said in what seemed to be an eastern European accent, "We know who you're associating with; drop it". He then threw his cigarette at my feet and walked quickly away, around the corner. I should add this was in the city centre, at the bottom of Kungsportsavenyn where it meets ?stra Hamngatan, if anyone knows Gothenburg. I've lived in Sweden for several months on two separate occasions, and have a pretty good knowledge of their accent when speaking English- he definitely wasn't a local.
I was pretty shaken at first, because frankly, it was weird. In a bit of a haze I picked up the remains of his cigarette, which was only about half smoked. It had some writing on it in eastern characters- probably the brand or something, I don't know. Fitted with the accent though. I'm not involved in any weird activities- I am an upstanding citizen.

By the way, I'm not so self important to think that an agent of the conspiracy went out of his way to freak me out. Most likely this guy didn't even know what I was involved with.

Personally I think it's because I associate with the .net team; Dogplatter and Username were the people referenced in the BBC link. DP is also talking about organising real world protests, so their ideas about promoting FET are a little more 'in your face', and possibly considered more dangerous.
I don't know. I never really believed that the conspiracy would attempt to do anything to involve itself in this place, because ti didn't make sense, but now I don't know that I can come to any other conclusion.
The conspiracy is trying to kill you. Stay safe, Wilmore.
It has happened before, after all:A large man with fair hair wearing sunglasses and a dark coat approached me while I was in Gothenburg, grabbed me by the shoulder, and said in what seemed to be an eastern European accent, "We know who you're associating with; drop it". He then threw his cigarette at my feet and walked quickly away, around the corner. I should add this was in the city centre, at the bottom of Kungsportsavenyn where it meets ?stra Hamngatan, if anyone knows Gothenburg. I've lived in Sweden for several months on two separate occasions, and have a pretty good knowledge of their accent when speaking English- he definitely wasn't a local.
I was pretty shaken at first, because frankly, it was weird. In a bit of a haze I picked up the remains of his cigarette, which was only about half smoked. It had some writing on it in eastern characters- probably the brand or something, I don't know. Fitted with the accent though. I'm not involved in any weird activities- I am an upstanding citizen.

Hey Gayer, can you recommend me some of your favorite gluten-free recipes? Thanks!
I lost all my best recipes :( What kind of thing, like a cake or something?

I dunno, my girlfriend is trying some gluten-free diet so I, by association, am trying some gluten-free diet. Just wondering if you had any favorites I had to try.

You poor poor man :(
My gluten free pizza rolls were pretty popular
Dough: (I use the dough cycle on the bread machine but I'm sure it'll work the same by hand. And you don't need to knead gluten free dough much at all so easier than making real pizza dough)
300ml water
1 tablespoon olive oil
Three quarters teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
450g flour
1 tablespoon psyllium husk (not essential but it really helps the dough be moar normal-like)
1½ teaspoons Xanthan gum (again not essential but it sort of replaces the gluten so makes the dough much much better than without)
1 pack dried yeast (11g)
Make it into a dough and leave to rise for a bit, doesn't really rise much though so don't worry if it doesn't seem to do much.
Then roll out dough into a rectangle. Spread on a little pizza sauce and some toppings and cheese. Keep it a thin layer so it rolls easier. Roll it up and cut slices. Put it in the oven 225C for about 10 minutes.
I'm guessing it's a cavity. I've never had one before, so I've nothing to compare it to. But it's a hole in my tooth and it hurts like fuckafdksfjsa.I think a cavity is a safe bet. I have 4 fillings and I've had my wisdom teeth removed (from the jaw). Getting those removed really isn't that painful, the only thing that sucked was the stiffness in my jaw. I could only eat yogurt and apple sauce for like 3 days.
Plus my wisdom teeth are starting to come in and those have been starting to hurt lately, so it was only a matter of time before I ended up needing a trip anyway. Blargh.
I have no idea how bad an idea it is to take a couple of painkiller/sleep aid pills only two hours after taking two just-painkiller ones, but I am near the point where I don't care just stop this pain please.
>having a good day, listening to Soundtracks of the Blind and browsing the FES, eating pizza
>bites into pizza
>everything becomes a blur for a moment as I grab my mouth and fall off the chair, pizza flipping over
>spend the next five minutes writhing around in pain
>spend fifteen after that staring at my tooth in the mirror while trying to deal with pain
Well, looks like I really need a dentist appointment. Let's hope we don't end up in debt!
All the tales of wisdom teeth pain does not have me very thrilled to get them taken out. But honestly, I don't care as long as it means my mouth not randomly hurting so much of the time. And I can say without a doubt I've been through worse. Surgery is not fun.
How bad is getting cavities taken care of?
jroa is old.
jroa is an ancient medicine man.
Chew on some cloves, they're a natural anesthetic, thats what I do when my teeth hurt (I've got a cavity but haven't got around to getting it filled yet cos it only hurts from time to time). Getting a filling is no bother and having wisdom teeth removed usually isn't bad either.They pack your gums with cloves if your wisdom teeth blood clots fall out too. My friend had to go through that several times.
What do you mean, Daniel has always been admin.
We made some changes recently to the theme and avatar pics. I thought it was all fixed since no one complained of the problem.
What browsers have you found that image error on?
I have several solutions that will work for this. I have to decide which one is most appropriate for our server resources and go from there. I'll keep you up to date next time I work on this.
We stopped complaining about the problem because John said:I have several solutions that will work for this. I have to decide which one is most appropriate for our server resources and go from there. I'll keep you up to date next time I work on this.
I don't have the same problem Hara had, I can still see all the text, but the big avatars still make the pages long.
My Warrior Dash training is going okay. I can run 3 1/2 miles no problem. And I never realized how weak I was before, I can actually lift things now without shaking like an anorexic girl.I, for one, encourage you to continue working out as much as possible.
I also have no weekends left. Between school, work, and training I'm sure I'll want to commit suicide before too long. It's why I haven't been posting too much lately.

Even Ski and markjo's? The only place all the avatars are the same size is in CN, but I'm using the Core theme.
I'll post another picture after Warrior Dash. I am up to 125lbs but without being chunky anywhere, just slight muscle growth all over. I'm mostly focused on running atm.

So I went to the pool this morning. "One for swimming" I cheerily smiled at the zombie behind the desk.
"Have you got a membership card?" She mumbled.
"Indeed I do" I replied with a pleasant tone.
I proceeded to make my way into the changing room, got into my swimming gear and popped into the showers where I had a quick rinse and stretch before making my way to the pool. I then slipped into the water and the instant I did, the hot lifeguard woman that I like, blew her whistle at me and signalled angrily for me to get out of the pool.
I went back to the changing room, got dried, put on all my clothes and made my way back to reception.
I walked up to the zombie and asked her "Is there anything you should have told me when I handed you my card to go swimming about 10 minutes ago?"
"I'm so sorry , sir I..."
"No" I interrupted, "that's not it. What should you have told me?"
"Its ladies only swimming at the moment, sir. "
Stupid woman >o<

Ha! I mostly listen to classic rock, but I have fairly eclectic taste in music.Recommend one piece of music that I would otherwise have never heard of, keeping in mind that I have old man taste in music.
Hmm, old man taste? Does that mean you hate rock? Or you just like dadrock? I'll give it a shot, but no guarantees. And I'll try to give you something modern. :P
The Beatles: Panic! at the Disco - Nine in the AfternoonIt was not bad, but it felt manufactured to me.
Country: First Aid Kit - EmmylouI could not finish this song. I tried.
Folk pop: Ingrid Michaelson - I'm ThroughIt was a good song, but probably not something I'd put on a playlist.
Piano/easy listening: Port Blue - Up Ship!I really liked this. I may try to make an arrangement later.
Light baroque pop: fun. - The Gambler (one of my personal favourite songs)This was good. I'd probably enjoy it more if I were in a different mood.
40s/50s pop: Jill Barber - Never Quit Loving YouThis was not bad either.
Acoustic: Sky Sailing - BrielleI'll give the rest a try later when I have more time.
Pop: Madi Diaz - Gimme a Kiss
Soul: Rebecca Ferguson - Nothing's Real but Love
Piano ballads: Owl City - Lonely Lullaby
I can understand that. It's far from my favourite Panic! song, but it's one of the most Beatles-esque. :PQuoteThe Beatles: Panic! at the Disco - Nine in the AfternoonIt was not bad, but it felt manufactured to me.
Aww. I don't usually like country, but I love that song for some reason. XDQuoteCountry: First Aid Kit - EmmylouI could not finish this song. I tried.
Yeah, I actually switched it out with "This is War" while you were posting, it's what I meant to put. I never remember her song names.QuoteFolk pop: Ingrid Michaelson - I'm ThroughIt was a good song, but probably not something I'd put on a playlist.
Yay! The Airship (http://www.mediafire.com/?k1n43a5nhghx72x) is probably my favourite album all-time, Port Blue is just incredible. And what do you mean by an arrangement?QuotePiano/easy listening: Port Blue - Up Ship!I really liked this. I may try to make an arrangement later.
I didn't like the track until months after I'd heard the album. It kind of grew on me, then I listened to it several times a day for a while. :PQuoteLight baroque pop: fun. - The Gambler (one of my personal favourite songs)This was good. I'd probably enjoy it more if I were in a different mood.

I just listened to three more. I actually liked Green Gentleman and I Write Sins Not Tragedies (which I'm pretty sure I've heard before). I liked the vocals, and those songs didn't sound forced. I don't remember which other song I listened to, but it was pretty blah to me like the first.I can understand that.

Alright, cool! If you've got any albums you're particularly fond of, I'm always looking for moar music. :DPaul Simon's Graceland is my favourite album ever. It is frequently unique in it's composition -- not a lot of 1-4-5 to be found there (I don't know if you know anything about theory). It's definitely different, so it might grow on you if you don't love it at first listen.
lol, I haven't bought a single textbook for this semester.Well you know us Americans, we just love to read.
So these are my textbooks for the semester (I'm still missing two). This was taken with instagram and it's very edgy.
Presumably it will be useful for her job.
lol, I haven't bought a single textbook for this semester.Well you know us Americans, we just love to read.
Yes, even though the material may be well known the author may be narrowing in on something specific. Tests will come from these specific readings as well as papers. For example, my primary source for a paper due next week are the pictures from one of these books. What does the artwork of Rome say about the changes happening etc.lol, I haven't bought a single textbook for this semester.Well you know us Americans, we just love to read.
I would think that history resources are even easier to find on the internet than science resources. Maybe I'm just really ignorant, but why do you need those textbooks? Most of them seem to be covering well known topics.
Does anyone know if it's possible to install mods for Steam on Mac?
Nephew had an extra Pokémon Black and I decided to start playing out of boredom yesterday. Ended up playing 9.5 hours straight.
Currently going at 9 right now. Looking like it's going to be 12+, if I don't sleep for a while. :D
I forgot how much I absolutely adore these games. The best part is that this is the only generation I'm out of the loop on, so this game'll pretty much get me up to speed on what Pokémon there are with the added bonus of all of them being a surprise. This will be a very enjoyable week. :)
I stopped playing when they exceeded 251 and every Pokemon started looking the same with just as confusing names.
I stopped playing when they exceeded 251 and every Pokemon started looking the same with just as confusing names.
I don't really see this. Everyone complains about the new generations in one way or another, but I think most of it is "stuff from my childhood was the best!" nostalgia, or just the fact that by that point they'd grown out of it so the newer ones were just like "meh". Honestly, the new ones look great to me. There are some dumb ones, but every generation had some dumb ones. I'm frankly surprised that they've managed to keep them as diverse as they are with 500+.
While they are diverse, the problem I have with them is the lack of creativity. They all seem like robots by design, now. Legendary species no longer have that legendary feel that the ones in the first 251 sets had. A lot just seem to be regurgitated versions of older ones. The only diversity is probably with attack names and stats, but you can pretty much do that with modifiers anyway. I just don't see the point anymore except MAYBE some story.

I definitely agree with the legendary problem, though I think a lot of the way they screwed themselves over with that was how they had to keep making them more and more legendary. Mewtwo was a genetic experiment; Lugia and Ho-Oh were legendary birds; Kyogre, Groudon and Rayquaza were masters of water, land and sky; Palkia, Dialga, and Giratina control time, space and antimatter; then Arceus was (probably) creator of the entire universe. Where do you go from there?
So yeah, the legendaries have kind of gotten less awe-inspiring and more "well, this is the legendary, I should catch it". Personally, I think either Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald or Diamond/Pearl/Platinum were the last great legendaries, but even by D/P/P the sheen was a bit worn. R/S/E was personally the last series where I was all thrilled about the legendaries.
I agree, they are really biting off more than they can chew and ultimately, the legendary nature should only be topped by Mew. Mew was supposed to be the Legendary Pokemon. Making a new one that supposedly "created the universe" just seems over the top and ruins the creativity of the original in my opinion.

Yeah, that sucks. Mew was always my favourite legendary, and I always thought it was supposed to be the original Pokémon. I wish they'd stuck to making legendaries that were legendary without trying to up the ante each time, since they eventually back themselves into this corner. Maybe even try going a different route for legendaries, you know? Instead of the usual "couple legendaries of x, y, and z elements", try doing something new. I don't know what, but that's because of how formulaic it is now. I'd want to be surprised. Hell, fusions or something even. One legendary that's a new or undefined element. Anything.
They wont be able to because now they've essentially ingrained this system of "one upping" the previous ideas into everyone's brains, coupled with the severe competitive nature of the genre, to create something of that nature would defeat the idea of being "the very best" that it promotes by creating these ultimate players.
On a side note, I really liked the original story of how Mewtwo was created by Team Rocket. To me, this was cool because while Mew was supposedly either extinct or simply MIA, having the DNA and modifying it to their needs was really cool. You wont see that level of development again in the series.
Also, the only other thing that bothers me is that these new pokemon are just now being "discovered." Realistically they should have already been known and therefore referenced to. They could have played it off as being "regionalized" to the Kanto/Johto regions and such, as you would have to justify the story to cover the hardware/software limitation at the time. That's just me though.
Sounds like you need to eat.
Sorry to hear about all that, rooster. Sounds like you need to eat better.But I actually eat really well. We mostly eat home cooked meals with protein and veggies, lots of salads too. Definitely not a lot of processed foods.
Well it's good you got it figured out Roos Roos. I'm always afraid when I'm not feeling right that if I go to the doc they'll think I'm just full of shit, so I just assume I'm fine. Opposite of hypochondria i guess; hyperchondria? Either way I could have avoided a lot of problems if I had my foot checked out before I finally did. Oh well.I do the same thing. I debated whether I was just overreacting for the longest time but the palpitations eventually got too annoying and uncomfortable. I'm still experiencing them, quite worrying really. I hope I dun have a heart attack. :(

Sure, this morning I thought it was just my coffee but my heart has been beating hard all day. It's very uncomfortable, plus the EKG was actually abnormal due to low potassium. In severe cases it can lead to cardiac arrest, I just don't know how severe it is for me yet. :(Well it's good you got it figured out Roos Roos.

Palpitations are common. I think I read that half of the population gets them. I get them and it used to scare me. I get them less when I stay away from caffeine and when I do not drink too much alcohol.
After having heart palpitations throughout the dayYou need to stop looking through my facebook photos.
I went to a walk-in clinic where they hooked me up to a neato EKG.Oh, is this another transatlantic thing for me to learn? What does EKG stand for? In the UK we get an ECG which stands for Electrocardiogram.
We discovered that I have a potassium deficiency, hooray! Which explains why I sometimes get agonizing calf and foot cramps where my toes stick out in morbid directions while A&A squeezes my foot to help the pain.Eat a banana every day whether you like them or not. Job done.

I went to my first rave today. My feelings are mixed. On one hand, the music and energy were awesome. On the other hand, there were skimpily-dressed dancers on stage, people grinding in the audience as it got late...and some guy grabbed my butt and then hit on me. Seeing as I am not a social person and incredibly socially awkward, this is just about the worst situation I could have possibly been put in. Through the jumbled, stuttery mess I call "talking" he eventually got the message and thankfully left without a fight.This however, deserves a thread of its own. One moment please ...
Also, all the drunk people. I don't like being around drunk people. I was one of the few sober people there.
But yeah, other than those bits it could've been awesome. :( Everything was horribly awkward and uncomfortable once people started grinding, so I probably wouldn't stay five hours if I went again. It all felt a bit too sleazy for me.

I eat a banana everyday. Reading about it online, I found out that the deficiency doesn't come from a diet. I don't eat a lot of salt either unless I'm having some poopy cheap Asian noodle thing. I do have a cup of coffee every morning for the past 3 years... I'm sure it's not that bit of caffiene. My deficiency may just finally be catching up to me due to the prolonged exercise and constant stress of school and work. My heart is still pounding today. My grandfather and great grandfather both died of heartattacks and I started wondering if maybe deficiencies could run in the family and if maybe that's what caused their heart problems. I know my grandfather wasn't fat or that old when he died.After having heart palpitations throughout the dayYou need to stop looking through my facebook photos.I went to a walk-in clinic where they hooked me up to a neato EKG.Oh, is this another transatlantic thing for me to learn?

I gave up about 4 or 5 times before I quit for good. Nicotine gum is useless. I just got hooked on that and still wanted a cigarette all the time. I found chewing regular gum worked best for me.

First one was boring. Never bothered with the others. That show was disappointing.
I bought an e-cigarette kit to use to ween myself off regular cigarettes. Basically, it is about the same size and shape as a real cigarette, and when you take a drag from it, you are inhaling mostly water vapor. It has nicotine and feels very similar to smoke, but does not really taste the same. I still smoke cigarettes, but I am smoking fewer real cigarettes every day. This (http://www.blucigs.com/starter-kits) is the kit I bought, but I got the white version which looks more like a real cigarette.A couple of people smoke those in A&A's office, which seems so weird to me. If they have nicotine, why still smoke cigarettes? Is it purely a taste thing?

The spelling. Please don't tell me that you're deliberately using British spellings and phrases to try and distance yourself from this country.No, I call her all types of things. Mum, mumsie, momma, mommikins, Cheryl... whatever fits the mood.
This is a noobish question: Did Rooster and A&A meet on the FES boards or were they already an item? I'm a hopeless romantic, BTW. I cannot be bothered to lurk moar either.

Nephew got Sonic Adventure 2 on the Playstation Store. I've been playing it for about 12 hours now.ffs. Supertails, go to the doctor. You need some testosterone treatment.
Excuse me, Sega seems to have gotten a bit of a Sonic game in my Chao-raising. These things are so adorable, I can't help but smile all proud and feel so "awwwwwwww!" when I whistle and my most snuggly chao gets excited and rushes over to me all gleefully. why cant these things be real i want to raise one in real life
EDIT: You know, when I played this when I was younger it was so much different. I still found them adorable, but when I'm playing now I've got like this motherly attachment to each chao. It makes it even more cute, but at the same time I'm feeling bad if I don't think I'm giving some enough attention, I'm scared to have too many because otherwise I'll be flitting about between them trying to give them all love. I'll feel horrible thinking one went its whole life without getting any attention. :-[ And oh god i know im going to cry when any die, especially if they dont love me enough to be reborn as a new baby chao
yes im weird i know
Lost my good pair of trauma shears on a double shooting/homicide scene tonight. :(Does that mean you have a bad pair of trauma shears? Because I do not like the sound of that.

Not exactly. It was just better than the more common trauma shears, which still get the job done. I also carry a knife specially made for cutting clothing off for trauma assessments as well, just in case.

Most patients are often conscious when becoming trauma naked. As perverted as it may seem, it is a necessity to perform a proper trauma assessment to make sure all injuries (if any) are found and treated (if treatable).
Well I was going in and out of consciousness, but I do remember that. I remember the horribly painful neck brace and puking a lot too. :(I remember being conscious when my clothes were cut off after a bad car wreck. I was 12.

Also, 1970's "Odds and Evens" rules are now in effect for gas stations throughout NJ while we're under a state of emergency. Hoping to see the insanity lessen from this.

Yeah, vomiting is attributed with loss of consciousness in most cases. You probably received an IV too, right?

In this car wreck I flew out the back window and remember waking up when still lying in the street. I had a cut liver, spleen, and a punctured lung. A broken collar bone too, but the doctors gave me that one later.

What caused the explosion?
I'm guessing that the house was already on fire or something, if you were already on the scene.

Would have been an incredibly boring BLS job. ALS would have had more fun with you on that one.
You should tell us things more often, your job is incredibly exciting.
Exploding houses are cool. Was anyone inside during the time?

If firefighters were bringing bodies out, then I'm guessing the answer is "yes".
You're never gonna get through your list.One day, SCG. :'( That's it, next week I'm sitting down and getting through a bunch of albums.
I had to Google 'Adam Young'.I never said he was well-known...nor do I care. An artist's popularity makes about zero difference to me.
I have now legally purchased, in one way or another, every song that has ever been made available for purchase by each of Adam Young's projects. I own all four CDs by Owl City, two EPs (one in CD form, the other only released digitally), and all one-off tracks for either movies or bonus tracks from iTunes; I own the Sky Sailing CD; and I own both Port Blue albums that were released only digitally (sadly). On top of that I have everything unreleased from each of those projects, as well as music from his other projects that had a single album or EP that went unreleased but floats around the internet.
Finally actually purchasing the single "To the Sky" from the soundtrack of an unimportant animated film from a couple years back puts me at legally owning them all. Nobody can ever say I don't support artists I really appreciate. :]

It's my house, I will do as I want.
And I just don't have the willpower to do it cold turkey. I know enough about myself to understand that. I figure that with the gum at least I'm cutting out the damage it was doing to my lungs, which right now is what I'm particularly concerned about.I remember when I was a young lad, my father caught me smoking a cigarette. As punishment he made me smoke the entire pack. I wish he'd caught me fucking that girl-guide. :(
But God... I want a cigarette. :(

Damn, I overestimated how much running/jogging I could handle, got in just barely over half of what I'd planned. I knew I was out of shape, but that out of shape? Really? Jeez.
Even though it's freezing out, I really want to start getting into shape again. I'm not overweight or anything (which has been hard to come to grips with, my mind is always telling me to lose more and more weight), but I'm definitely not in shape. I need to figure out some kind of regimen to keep up, but I'm no fitness expert.

Jeez.It's too cold for A&A and me to run outside, it really burns the throat/lungs. I suspect we'll start playing more tennis though. Along with yoga I do some calisthenics. You can start by doing push-ups for a min, rest for a min, planks for a min, rest for a min, squats for a min, rest for a min, and then burpies for a min. Then you just keep lengthening the work out time and shortening the rest time. You can do different excersises just as long as you focus on arms, abs, legs, and then the whole body (burpies are a bitch). That's how I stay fit without getting bulky.

Too cold to run? Nonsense! Wear a scarf over your mouth. It'll get wet from your breath condensing, but it'll keep the cold air from piercing through your lungs. Cold weather is great for running, you don't really even need to bundle up because your body heats up with all the activity. Don't go too far from warm shelter though.
Also if it's REALLY cold, don't go straight inside. Let yourself cool down for a minute so you don't get temperature shock.
I need to get running again myself. I know I've been saying this, but I've got ulterior motives now. Also going to start practicing parkour a bit. Won't be doing flips and shit, but I'm going to learn to navigate unusual terrain. Also for said ulterior motives.

My dad said that he doesn't know if he'll be able to make it out to see me graduate from uni. He didn't say why. Technically, my step-mom answered the email for him. :'(If he did not graduate from college he may be jelly. Call him and make sure he actually got the invite.
That sucks :-\ When is your graduation?December 15
If he did not graduate from college he may be jelly. Call him and make sure he actually got the invite.He has a masters. I know he must have seen it, she's not the evil type. But I'm going down to Texas for Thanksgiving so we'll talk about it more then.

What did England ever give the world?Australia?

What did England ever give the world?Australia?
We had settlers here for 50 millenia before Captain Cook "discovered" New South Wales and imposed the English people's perverse concept of law and order on the place. What's more, they took better care of the land than your people ever did.Let me just stop you there. My people? My people live here. Its you and your people that have done whatever it is to Australia.
Believe it or not, there was a time when Sydney Harbour was free of pollutants. The scum that white man pumps into his own waterways is a very recent development over here, dating from the past two and a half centuries or so.You are a white australian. I feel its probably important to point this out to you as you seem to have forgotten.
England didn't create Australia. It wasn't the first to settle here, and it wasn't even the first European country to explore it. All you did was destroy it.I've never even been to Australia. In fact I'm not entirely sure it exists. I'm still rather fond of the notion that its just an out of the way place in America. But it is Australian citizens who settled in Australia. Not the English. Once you claimed independence, England was absolved of all responsibility. Its Australians and their forefathers that have muffed up Australia.
But it is Australian citizens who settled in Australia. Not the English.
??? wat. The English discovered Australia and founded it. Later they let the ingrates that live there, have it. So England gave the world Australia. The Australians then ruined it.

Australia didn't become independent from England until 1900, by which time most of the damage had already been done. It didn't take more than a few years for Sydney Cove to go from a beautiful bay that the colonists decided to found the first city on to a sewage dump. The atrocities committed to the land and to the native inhabitants over the next century were also committed by English colonists.
It only took a couple of decades after independence for Australians to start making changes for the better. We gave women the right to vote, and eventually started treating Aborigines as human beings. We have programmes in place to try to reduce the amount of waste that gets dumped into landfill and waterways. Now our Prime Minister has even allowed a conscience vote for her party in Parliament on the issue of gay marriage, despite not herself being a supporter of it.
We haven't fully repaired the damage you did to our nation before independence, but we're working on it. These things take time.

Garbology. I had no idea that this was even a thing. The study of trash is an academic discipline.Well it's a branch of archaeology, but yes.
One man's trash is an archaeologist's treasure thousands of years from now.Or even a week from now.
so i've been working on a garbology research project with a partner for my archaeology class (we have to survey trash on campus and whatnot). ANYWAY, when my partner was supposed to provide some hand-drawn detail maps and a portion of the narrative, bitch drops off the face of the earth! I’ve been trying to get ahold of her since yesterday and the deadline was 5pm today. yippee! first and last time i ever depend on a partner. TOO BAD THIS IS RIGHT BEFORE GRADUATION.
then i was an accidental no call, no show at work and have a week suspension. I'M POOR AND SCREWED.
my life is the best ;D
I emailed the professor already but she never responded. Class is tomorrow so I'll just have to talk to her about in person I suppose.so i've been working on a garbology research project with a partner for my archaeology class (we have to survey trash on campus and whatnot).

Talk to your prof tell them the issues you're having and ask if they can get hold of her.
It not only makes them aware of the issues you're having but it also makes them aware that something may have happened to her.

Protip: lecturers often don't believe this stuff, or sort of ignore it. Team assignments are supposed to be about 'the team', so sometimes they'll brush you off if you're peers don't show.
If this is an issue, and the lecturer tells you it's a team assignment and that's just how it is, then as backup I suggest you either forward on or print your emails to this person. It's evidence of your 'pro-activity' and/or their last-minute crap, and might help you out if it's something critical.
I used to bartend in a college down and after a drink or two, the professors would delight each other in the "lies" students told to get out of work. Sometimes they were obviously lies, a student saying he was suffering from jet lag despite not leaving the time zone, others were a bit grayer, a student missing a test because of a flat. Students do lie to get out of work and flat tires do happen from time to time. Regardless, the professors assumed that they were all lies.
Butterfly done properly is the most graceful stroke there is. Done any other way and it looks like you are drowning.
Butterfly from Underwater in Slow Motion - Misty Hyman (http://#)
Unfortunate name, good swimmer.
Mistiness isn't exactly an adjective I'd ever associate with a hymen, since it'd be kind of strange to describe one as such.Well I'd like to give her a misty hymen.
I was wondering the same thing. 'Rosie' would've been worse.How about Poppy? Or Sandy? Or Virginia?

Not as hard as I thought it was going to be.
Nice, keep it up! Do you have a milestone/reward system?
Congratulations Roundy.
Have you noticed now how much of your day you used to spend planning your next cigarette?
So I just finished my undergraduate career. No biggie.
woohooooooooo great job! what's next?I'm going to pick up a ton more hours at my job so I can actually make a decent paycheck and plan for our trip to England. I'll also be trying to send out some emails to some places over there to see if there's a possibility of a job or even internship. I haven't quite decided if I want to go to grad-school, but if I do I want it to be in England.

I just had ginormous knobbly poo. Its the type of poo you might only have once or twice a year. It was of good length but it was the shear girth I had trouble with. It feels as though my hole has been rubbed with a scouring brush and soaked in whiskey. Its in tatters. A cool, refreshing, yet unsettlingly alien wind is now soothing my gaping chasm. My knees are quivering as I type and I feel a combination of exhaustion, relief and pride.Is this your way of telling us that you just had sex with a man?

Just had an incredibly awkward slow dance with a girl I've liked for a while. I kind of want to crawl in a hole and die at the moment.

You're probably just being hard on yourself. You really can't mess up a slow dance, you just sort of rock back in forth in a small circle.Just had an incredibly awkward slow dance with a girl I've liked for a while. I kind of want to crawl in a hole and die at the moment.

Nah, I go to a small school. Everyone knows.
It was awkward mainly because I had no idea what I was doing.
It was your first slow dance?
Yeah, and I was dancing with him and I was so nervous I couldn't even look at him. I felt such a klutz. He seemed to know what to do and was the perfect gent and I felt like a badly fitting suit making him look all cheap and ugly. God I hate my life.
No don't be silly. I'm sure he really likes you. He danced with you after all and he asked you
No, I've totally blown it. I felt so nervous I thought I was going to be sick. I broke off the dance before the end and ran away. The butterflies in my tummy were awful. He probably hates me now. I'm going to cut myself.
Oh, poor you. Did you have your sparkly new shoes on? And did you do your eye-liner the way we said. Upload a piccy
I don't even think he noticed my shoes or my new hair. Oh he smelt so good. Like a roast chicken or something. Really yummy. I just wanted to take a bite out of him. Maybe he could see how much I liked him and seemed desperate. Just as well I have you guys. I'm going to finish chapter 38 of Love In the Smokey Woods and upload for you all to read tomorrow night. The tax collector and the barmaid get it on and he decides to leave his job and buy a beautiful white horse. x x x

She's probably not as pretty as vongal, what a dream.
It was your first slow dance?
Yeah. I mean, she seemed pretty happy to be asked, but I wasn't really sure where to put my hands at first and then she spent the entire dance avoiding eye contact with me and then broke it off a bit early. It was just awkward and terrible and I don't know where I stand with her now and ugh.

Actually you can teach intelligence, but only to a very small extent, and it usually doesn't work. The rest of it is innate.
The mother's? No.
She had baggage. Baggage that had taken a liking to my arse.The mother's? No.
Golden opportunity wasted.
Thork's arse is attractive to 12 year old girls.I guess so. For an older guy I'm in quite good shape. I swim lots so I still have a 6-pack and no wobbly bits. I guess for a young girl coming to terms with her hormones it was all a bit much. 8)
It is.

Intelligence != knowledge. You can teach knowledge, but not intelligence. Never bring a question to a semantics fight.

But smartness is associated with knowledge, not intelligence.
Also, what would you say is the difference between intelligence and wisdom?
I was at the pool today and the kids haven't yet gone back to school. The pool is laned off though and I managed a good swim.Reported for pedophilia.
However it was after my swim, I happened to be getting my stuff out of my locker. You ever get that feeling you are being watched? Well I was bent over wearing just my lycra jammers because the lockers are all floor based and I turned around to see a 12-13 year old girl having a really good stare at my arse. (I'm 35 this month for those that don't follow the life of Thork.) Anyway, she saw me looking at her, looking at my arse. I flashed her a smile like 'its ok, I caught you, I'm not offended' but she turned purple with embarrassment. More amusing her mother (who frankly was much more to my taste) saw her daughter turn purple, new she'd been busted looking at my arse and decided to turn purple as well. Glad I wasn't in the car for that conversation on the way home.
Other than that, my day has been 'meh'.
I chatted to one of the new life guards today. She was about 20. Cute, but too young.

They tend to change your weight more than your personality. I take a low estrogen pill and I didn't notice any side effects. The down side with low estro being that if you take the pill even 2 hours late you'll probably start your period early.Condoms break, always use the pill.I'm happy with the results of the accident

That's awesome, Thork! Age genuinely doesn't matter, as long as she's not underage, so don't have any worries about that and anyone who nags you about it is stupid, so go for it. Make a good impression, but don't be someone else. Anything that lasts longer than a fling will end badly, then. But I'm sure you know what you're doing. :]
Also, wasn't she 20?See above.
Thanks.I got fed up of looking at the life guard and thinking she is hot. Today I went over and asked her out. She said yes. I am going on a date next week. That is all.Atta boy Thork!
I'm not going to today. I'm going to take it for how it felt, and it was just...good. As far as I'm concerned, today was amazing. And I'm not going to let myself ruin it this time. :]

I thought about possibly trying the mini-pill as doesn't seem to have as many side effects but I'm terrible at remembering to take medication so I really wouldn't trust myself on the pill. I did almost get the mirena coil but the actual idea of having something stuck up there and having to check it stays in place just freaks me out.

Silly rooster, hope you don't get preggers
I'm not responsible enough to take a pill every day, but I am responsible enough to take care of a child
It's true, it works splendidly. And when I take a pill late and I know the flow will be coming I just don't have sex. It's simple really.Silly rooster, hope you don't get preggers
Well, her method seems to be working better than yours did.
Why do so many people here take some sort of medication?Well my problem is that I have panic attacks in large crowds. The last time I had one was at Particle's graduation. There were just too many people in too little space and my personal bubble was horribly violated. Opposed to what Thork said, this didn't keep me from having a life as crowds that large are not a common occurrence. But I seem to be getting over it anyway. During the Thanksgiving holiday I was on 4 different planes and I didn't freak out at all. Nor did I freak out during my own graduation.

I have this problem but not just large crowds due to social anxiety disorder. I've tried many medications and they did more harm than good, so I have to do without. Though, I was never really interested in having to always take medication to deal with my anxiety. It gets hard at times, but I've been doing a lot better (crowds still freak me out). I still live a normal life and do most things everyone else can do. However, it's not as easy for everyone to live a "normal" life as Thork has said.
And I was on sleeping pills for a while but then they made me hallucinate and its not easy to sleep when you think the monkey next to the bed is moving so I stopped them.
If by ridic you mean "so fun" then yes.And I was on sleeping pills for a while but then they made me hallucinate and its not easy to sleep when you think the monkey next to the bed is moving so I stopped them.
Probably was Ambien CR? That shit is ridick. If you still need sleep aid, try asking for regular Ambien or better yet Lunesta. They probably have Finnish named counterparts but I'm sure you can figure that out.
Marijuana can be pretty terrible for anxiety.

I can get insomnia fairly badly due to my anxiety. The best way to sleep without meds is to get up early, have a busy day (which I'm sure is not an issue when you have a child), then have a nice long unwind period. Take a bubble bath, read, or meditate while in bed. The meditating part can be tricky especially when your brain won't stfu, but focusing on your breathing (even chant "in, out") and then focus on relaxing each body part individually.
Marijuana can be pretty terrible for anxiety.Yes. I stopped smoking when it only gave me panic attacks, even when alone at home playing vidja games.
When I'm high I tend to think about nothing at all.
my days of messing about with nefarious drugs are over.
This thread makes me happy that I'm 100% physically and mentally healthy, young and not a woman. Thanks, guys.I'll be physically and mentally happy after this withdrawal process. And what's wrong with being a woman?
Nothing, I just don't envy getting pregnant after forgetting to take the pill.I'm not entirely certain it works that quickly. Although, PP's mom says that he's the result of one missed pill. I'm not sure how much I really believe that though... Especially if the woman resumes taking the pill while unaware of the pregnancy. I would think it would almost be like taking the day after pill but I don't know.

The pill is oestrogen. The female hormone. It is a steroid. It doesn't build muscle like testosterone, but it does change your biology so that you are infertile. Its such a shock to your system that your body does not ovulate properly. However, should you stop taking the pill, you release an egg and you become fertile. If this happens in one day, you'll get pregnant. Extra pills afterwards are not going to undo or take back that released egg. You will remain fertile until your next period. So if you forget in week one, you might still get pregnant in week 3 of your cycle.
The fact young women are taking these powerful drugs and don't understand them is fairly frightening. The amount of life that must be destroyed as a result later is stomach churning. 25% of all pregnancies end in termination.
I knew about my incredible shoulders, but not the pill. Maybe she thought I would take offense.ahaha. I don't see why. I always thought "mistake" was a harsh word. Just because you didn't plan a baby doesn't mean they're a mistake. But she never actually called you a mistake anyway. I think it was mostly a way to explain for the age gap.
She loves talking about you and all about creating you. Anyway, a missed pill explains the huge age gap between you two.

It helped me get over the 'it's a date' nerves.
Whenever I meet new people at college and tell them I am a member of the Flat Earth Society they just laugh. Then when I tell them with a straight face "No, I'm serious" they still laugh but it's more nervous. What am I doing wrong :(
I don't think that went very well.Well you usually have to go on a date to realize you're not interested in an otherwise attractive person. Not everyone's going to fall in love with your personality.
There wasn't any awkwardness and I'm pretty sure I was awesome, but I didn't get any inkling that she liked me back. At all. At any stage. Even the farewell was a kiss on the cheek. It makes me wonder why she bothered to come out in the first place.
I may be wrong but I may as well have been out with my gran. :(

Actually it didn't come up. But she just didn't seem very interested. Usually I'd expect a girl to ask me stuff about myself or if she likes me to in some way tell me she likes at least something about me. You know, I like your eyes, you've a great sense of humour, you've a charming smile, I like your accent. Anything really. Lie if you must. But to not give any hint at all. I'm not Paul McKenna.What had you expected to get on your first date ???A second date.
Oh she said no? Sorry bro, better luck next time.

Anyway I sent a text saying thanks for the really nice evening and stuff and got no reply. Then I saw her today and she just chatted about her car being stuck in the snow and stuff. It doesn't really leave me any place to go. You can't progress if you have absolutely no feedback at all. That's the way to get a slap around the face. So rather than be a pest, I guess that's it. Ball's in her court but I don't think she really felt like hitting it back.
Its understandable really. I don't have a huge amount to offer right now.

Obviously I don't know how you acted around her in person, but it's possible that she's put off by your low self esteem. People typically don't like people who don't like themselves. It's evident in your language. You won't be a "pest" if you just bring up the topic of going out again. Maybe she's shy. Then again, it's also possible that you're just really terrible.
PP is a teenager, heheheh.And probably the most successful person on this site in regards to having a life and such.

Well you usually have to go on a date to realize you're not interested in an otherwise attractive person. Not everyone's going to fall in love with your personality.

This seems backwards to me. Asking arbitrary eye candy out on a date sounds like it would be a waste of time. I wouldn't want to court someone I didn't already know I got along with.
So basically you want to date friends. Thork is stepping out into the wide world and is starting from scratch.Well you usually have to go on a date to realize you're not interested in an otherwise attractive person. Not everyone's going to fall in love with your personality.

Yes, but you don't have to get along with them too terribly well for a one-nighter. Those are generally always fun.
Physical attraction is an important prerequisite for a relationship. Since physical attraction is much easier to determine than emotional attraction, that's usually where people begin.
So basically you want to date friends. Thork is stepping out into the wide world and is starting from scratch.
People obviously date both ways but it seems like the older you are the more likely you are to just ask an attractive acquaintance on a date rather than your friend.
No one wants just a pretty face, both are important. Physical attraction coming solely from the personality doesn't make sense to me.Yes, but you don't have to get along with them too terribly well for a one-nighter. Those are generally always fun.

Attraction to me is a personality thing. It's not possible for me to be attracted to someone without knowing we get along first.
No one wants just a pretty face, both are important. Physical attraction coming solely from the personality doesn't make sense to me.
Are you telling me there's not one celebrity that you think is objectively attractive?
No one wants just a pretty face, both are important. Physical attraction coming solely from the personality doesn't make sense to me.
Are you telling me there's not one celebrity that you think is objectively attractive?
That is indeed the case. Celebrities are among the most unattractive people in the world to me. You see only of them what they (or their agents) will you to see.
Er, yeah, obviously. Do you think you should be privy to all of their personal details just because they're good at acting, or music, or whatever has made them a celebrity?
So might I then assume Parsifal, that at the opposite end of the scale, there is no one you would rule out because of their looks? Their personality could rescue the situation and make them attractive to you. In effect, no woman is too ugly? Because if that is not the case, then you are also being selective based on looks, albeit having lower standards than a regular human being.
But I said objectively. Take aside all your personal feelings and biases and then tell me all celebrities are ugly. Don't worry about being rejected or any other irrelevant fear about the opposite sex, just pick out a pretty face.Er, yeah, obviously. Do you think you should be privy to all of their personal details just because they're good at acting, or music, or whatever has made them a celebrity?
I don't see the relevance. I made no such claim or implication; I merely stated a reason for their unattractiveness.

Your enquiry makes no sense. Human attractiveness is a purely subjective judgment. There is no such thing as objective attractiveness.

Yes, people still have personal preferences, but you're just lying if you can't pick out a pretty face even if their personality is shit.
But it is relevant to the initial discussion. When your options are limited and you rather not be a lonely sap anymore, you pick a pretty face, ask them on a date, and see if there's more there.Yes, people still have personal preferences, but you're just lying if you can't pick out a pretty face even if their personality is shit.
I didn't say I couldn't. However, "a pretty face" and "attractive" are not synonyms, so it isn't relevant.

Hmm, I must have missed that picture earlier. I can see it now. Also, Motley Crüe, along with most other hair metal bands, began in the eighties, not the seventies.Not even late 70s? Still gross though.

She looks an awful lot like you actually. Your ex probably liked you for that reason.I have considered this. She also cut her hair real short when I was dating him so we looked even more similar. But I can't compete with her adorable dimples.

They don't take packages at my apartment complex's office. So the mailman usually just tosses it into our patio, which is kind of a dick move because shit breaks all the time.That's a shitty situation. I'd complain about the dick.

My wetsuit arrived.I think you should call them up and offer to pay the extra money.
I sooooo excited! :D
I ordered a 2010 model because it was only £162 and I guess it works ok anyway.
(http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0151/3911/products/Reaction_2010_small.jpg?24)
However to my joy when I just opened the box, there was a note saying they had run out of the old stock and given me the current model (2012).
(http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0151/3877/t/1/assets/360_reactionmen_DPP_98.jpg?2606)
The new version is £299. And I got it for £162. I normally never have luck like that so I am grinning from ear to ear.

Yes, because hoppy would do that.
I think you should call them up and offer to pay the extra money.They explained that they do not have the one I want in stock and gave me a newer model in order to make up for the deficiency in their ordering system. They were keen to keep me as a customer. They made the gesture. We both agreed, a transaction was made with both parties knowing the full value of the goods. This is not like offering a member of the public say $5 for a $400 gold necklace and hoping to prey on their naivety.

No. If you play it cool though, you can make sexy time with some sexy ladies after the club closes.
I went to those friends I'm appearing in a film for to film, but they ended up rescheduling and I played a corpse for a silent short they're doing for college. Despite how it sounds, this is a huge yay. I haven't had such an incredible day in a long time. All four of us were just laughing almost all 7.5 hours, laughing when we'd screw up or anything. It was her (the director), her like 30-year old college teacher woman, and the other two from the short film we're doing. We went to one of their houses and she had the most adorable little kitten in the world (something was wrong with her eye, she had it narrowed and blinked a lot, and she shivered almost constantly). She (the cat) is apparently incredibly antisocial, so I made it my goal to win her over. Within 15 minutes she was asleep in my arms on the couch.
Anyways, I ended up being a corpse with toothpaste all over my general mouth area and tweezers in my eyes. The toothpaste burned. A lot. And the bathroom floor was freezing so I was shivering the entire time, and had to hold my breath and force the shivering to stop whenever we were doing a take. I made jokes and they laughed, a miracle, and they made me laugh more and I was amazed to find people with such a similar sense of humour. As someone who tends to be a hell of a loner, it was just incredible. All of us got along, and when the teacher was gone we played Cards Against Humanity and just laughed the whole hour or so we played.
But wow, yeah. I just feel really giddy getting back from that. HAPPY SUPES :D

Also, a bunch of the toothpaste got in my hair and now there are clumps that are stuck together and crusty. And the fake blood didn't come off so well, so now half of my face is pretty red. And she put makeup to make me look pale (to which I said "do you really need makeup for that?" and they laughed and I was like "omg are they laughing"). Plus I had kind of an ego boost. I hate telling stories that put me in a good light because I feel like I'm bragging and I hate bragging or saying anything good about me, but...I was in their first movie, and they told the teacher how they'd seen me in plays and were amazed and like "'____ was kind of a legend in theatre, but ____ never talked to anyone (s)he was kind of a mystery. But then (s)he responded to our flyer and I was like '[friend]. ___' and she was like 'what about him/her' and I was like '(s)he wants to be in our movie'". (good luck making sense of that)
I heard and was all "nuh-uh, you're lying" but they were all "no, seriously". Then during Cards Against Humanity, I don't remember what came up, something about ruined sex lives, and she glanced at me and was like "well, that's not fair, she could get laid if she wanted" and I almost sprayed soda from my nose when I laughed, then they all laughed at my reaction and it was fun. Obviously they were just trying to be nice both times, but still, it did feel kinda good. I can't say I believe them, though. :P
Sorry for all that, and sorry for babbling at the end there. I know it sounds like I'm trying to humble brag or something, but I really just wanted to bring them up 'cause it's rare I ever hear anything like that, so even if it's not true it still was kinda heartwarming to see that there are even people that care. I wish I hung out with them more often.

Speaking of texts, do the incredibly well adjusted members of this society think it would be weird to send a happy v-day text to a crush? For context, due to bullshit going on in my personal life (most notably my brother being in and out of the hospital for his mental issues) I've been putting off asking her out.

That's very tactful advice, Wilmore.
When it comes to the ladies, most guys over think it. Be yourself. If you want to tell her then go for it. You've likely already been throwing her signals and if she hasn't given you the cold shoulder then she probably feels the same way.
No, we don't.That's very tactful advice, Wilmore.

Let me give you an anecdotal example from work on V-day. (I work at a grocery store.) This nervous guy was buying his girl a case of flowers and a big box of chocolate. I made some comment about sticking to the classics and he said he didn't want to screw it up. But he was getting her something so he couldn't have screwed it up. Husbands were buying their wives beer, dinner, and a card cause they know how it is.
For a girl, all that's really important is that you're thinking about her. That you took the time and made the effort, the actual gift or wording is irrelevant and will likely be forgotten.
If you like someone that you're already friends with you shouldn't worry fret so much. She already likes you enough to be your friend so that's a great start. People are usually flirting if they're into each other, you just need to pay more attention to that.
I said "girl" but this guy was in his thirties.... Females are not complicated to buy for. You either ask them and they tell you, or they don't tell you so it's not a big deal and then you just buy them something. Again, presents that aren't asked for likely won't be remembered outside of a year.No, we don't.That's very tactful advice, Wilmore.

Could that be because girls are more complicated to buy for?
I have two sisters and I have a long term gf. They're not as complicated to buy for as they used to be, but I still have to scratch my head for birthdays and Christmas.
And from what I can remember from the conversation:None of that is complicated at all..
- Should you kiss on the first date
- If the guy wants sex on the first date does that mean he's not interested in anything else?
- If a guy doesn't contact you after a day does that mean he's not interested?
- What should you wear on the first date?
- Do I need to buy another dress?
- Why hasn't he contacted me yet it's been a few days since our first date?
- I always seem to be contacting him, is he interested?
The list goes on.
Don't take advice from women, they don't know what they want.they want attention. it's as simple as that.

yeah, girls will use guys to feed their egos and vice versa. people are dicks that way.Don't take advice from women, they don't know what they want.they want attention. it's as simple as that.
From my experience that's true, guys want the same thing, but I don't think it's as simple as that.
I've known a few girls who've 'pretended' to show an interest in a guy just to get attention, they've used the guy and confused the hell out of them.
Whereabouts are you? Wish I had room, but that's a no-go. We're moving to a two bedroom place soon but the second room will be for the babby. If you came to stay you'd be in charge of cooking, cleaning, etc. Basically a slave. So I hope you're not black or I'd feel bad.
You can come stay with me and be my slave

i am freaking out with joy, this book is so much bigger and heavier than i expected and its so beautiful and filled with concept art and zelda mythology and information and stuff i never knew before i am going to cry many tears of joy ok
That was Thorky.
I love The Legend of Zelda. That's a cool gift.
I'm jealous. Every time I go to GameStop I end up caressing that book.
It seems Thorky because it's actual Thork copypasta. Saddam would never write that many consecutive words on his own.

That's a pretty cool opinion too. As long as we agree that 3D Zeldas are vastly overrated.
You can just use an emulator for N64 games, rooster.It's not the same unless you're holding that horribly awkward controller.
There are special controllers you can plug into your computer.Hmm, what would be more expensive, a PC controller or Majora's Mask?
I don't think you can plug in an N64 controller.
I just got my N64 back, if I get some more time I'm going to buy a new controller (all the pokes of my old controllers are shit, the only thing bad about N64) and going to play majora's mask again. Never played that till the end.
Majora's Mask makes me angry, lol. I love Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker the most. Skyward Sword is fun but kinda awkward, and Twilight Princess was cool, too. I have the Gamecube Zelda collector's disk but I haven't played the 2D games on it.I still haven't played Skyward Sword either. How is that one aside from awkward? And what makes it awkward?

TP's motion controls are fine because they didn't try to implement directional swinging, meaning swinging your Wiimote is pretty much an equivalent to pressing B on the GameCube pad, so there's really not much of a risk of a wrong input with that system.Gotcha. Well SS can't be much more frustrating than Okami.

It wasn't as good as Ocarina of Time. Still a fan, though.
I was laughing at your omg i just jizzed muh pants comments, I was late commenting.You can just use an emulator for N64 games, rooster.It's not the same unless you're holding that horribly awkward controller.
And what's so funny hoppy? I don't LOL at your Jesus love or gold jewelry collection.

Really? An actual N64 one? Huh, that's pretty awesome...where'd you get it?

We all have our moments, working with the FES, I would have thought you'd know that. Why the other day it took me 10 minutes to notice the petrol was prepay after I spent all that time getting angry at it.

Waaat Gayer?! I remember my mom got double teamed. She had a colonoscopy and an endoscopy. She hated the prep. But I had to drive her drugged ass home.I think I might have seen that movie.
They put two cameras in her while she was forced into unconsciousness. Those doctors are sick.

Both at once? Urgh. I'm not sure which I hate most, colonoscopy or gastroscopy. I'm supposed to have another gastroscopy done this spring but I'm going to refuse unless they put me asleep for it.
i'm even going to try and cosplay Sheik with my friend who will do oot Link.
I got a full time job with a home cleaning service (maid). I'll be out of retail, have consist day-time hours, free weekends, and make $300-500 a week. I will finally have money again. :)
Don't sass me. There isn't any job around here worth having. In the meantime, I have to save money for excursions to England and to pay off student loans. Retail pay isn't going to cut it.I got a full time job with a home cleaning service (maid). I'll be out of retail, have consist day-time hours, free weekends, and make $300-500 a week.

Don't worry Supertails, history shows that they will invariably have a reunion tour some day. Or maybe five reunion tours. And a live album from each, possibly with new songs. Famous bands never stay dead forever until members start dying.

Except for the Beatles. And The Clash. And Pink Floyd. And Talking Heads. And The Smiths. And The Jam. And yeah, you're very wrong.
In the Beatles people started dying. Same with Floyd and the Clash. Anyways, it's just a generalization. Obviously there are exceptions to the rule.

I had no idea the Talking Heads even broke up, I just got into them a few weeks ago. That kind of depressed me.

All three of those bands had a lot of time between their breakups and any of their members' deaths.

Actually, Pink Floyd had a reunion in 2005
Actually, Pink Floyd had a reunion in 2005
Minus one of the original band members.
Pink Floyd have played together once or twice, but have explicitly rejected touring. Zeppelin played a special concert back in 2007, but have also explicitly rejected retouring. Van Halen never broke up, but they have switched out singers a few times. The E Street Band is Springsteen's backing band, and he uses them when he needs them, so I wouldn't really call any tours he makes with them reunions in the sense we're talking about. Creedence has never reunited, and certainly never toured again.
tl;dr: NO U
I consider reunion concerts to be reunions, because they clearly are
Revisited might as well be a reunion of Revival
Anyway, the point is that Supes shouldn't worry too much and that they'll probably do a reunion at some point that he can go see. Is that really so controversial?

So these ladies I work with make me feel like a genius. It's great for my ego but also really destroys my perception of humanity. I've also noticed that I start mimicking their southern accent (which I do not have) when I'm with them. This is a terrible habit that must die quickly.

CLASS WAR
Why does everyone think they're for equality and that everybody should be treated with the same respect, then come out with stuff like this?
I dunno, 'you destroy my perception of humanity' is a harsh and personal phrase..Test scores always said I had an above average intelligence, I had just never seen it in action before. Stupid people are still people, jeez Ed.

Aww I got pyramid-quoted, thx guys :"D
guess who is laying in bed with a fever of 101 degrees Fahrenheit and running to the bathroom every once in a while to vomit painfully
that's right, me
what a great day
on the bright side, I get to just lay here in a shirt and underwear and nothing else, which is amazing because it has been incredibly hot in this house lately
on the other hand, the fever is making me feel hotter and im dying and wish i could wear less and have a million fans
plz kill me
In a way, I enjoy fevers. They're always accompanied by a high of sorts. Once I had a fever of around 105F, and began to dream I was above a desert while I was conscious.I do too and for the same reason. Plus, it's a free pass to get out of work or school.

Perhaps if their death does something good, like ends a regime. But you're celebrating her death literally only because she's dead. And that makes me sad :(

If she's evil, why is she celebrated by half the country? I'm not a supporter of hers at all but I think it's a bit rich to think my opinion is the only one.
And I think it's just bare weird when people I know want someone to die and laugh at their illness. Where does it stop? Who else do we want dead?
People are shitty and people die. There's nothing wrong with an opinion, it's not a crime to be relieved over a death.

I think a young women hit on me today. To be honest its been so long I'm still not sure.
I had just got out of the pool and was a bit red in the face. I guess my muscles were glistening as tiny beads of water ran along them and down the little rippled muscles of my stomach. My hair was wet and messy and I was breathing a little heavily because of the swim. Anyway I went to my locker and opened it to get my towel and shampoo so I could have a shower. I popped my towel onto the locker and looked up to see a young woman (late teens/early 20s) who was looking straight at me and she smiled. I smiled back but it was kind of a forced 'I wasn't ready for this' kind of a smile. I grabbed my stuff and went to the shower.
As I was showering I was thinking about what a tidy little body she had and how she was pretty cute. However that was giving me a bit of a semi so I stopped because they are public showers and someone else might have come in. I finished up and made my way back to the locker to get my clothes with just a towel wrapped around my small toned waist. She was still there texting. She smiled at me again. I smiled back properly this time and started removing my clothes from my locker. I turned said "I'm really sorry but do I know you from somewhere other than swimming?". She replied "No, just swimming". "So you come here all the time?" I asked - my inner monologue was thinking 'Did you really just ask her if she comes here often? You suck dude, you fucking suck! >o<'.
She replied "I'm a swimming instructor here". Again my brain raced ahead thinking maybe she's noticed me in here before. She's pretty young but hitting that would be awesome fun.
"Do you teach adults?" I asked thinking a little one-on-one time in the pool might be just the way to break down a few of the social barriers. I could see her eyes slowly drifting down my torso and as she got to my waist, unwrapping my towel in her mind like I was an expensive box of chocolates and she just wanted to eat me all up.
"No, she replied, I only teach children".
"That's not much used to me" I joked and put the last of my clothes in the cubicle behind me. At which point I turned to see her walk off.
What the hell is wrong with me? I know I can chat up ladies better than that. :(

"That's not much used to me" I joked and put the last of my clothes in the cubicle behind me. At which point I turned to see her walk off.
What the hell is wrong with me? I know I can chat up ladies better than that. :(
You should have been all,
"So I'm pretty big on the internet. On The Flat Earth Society. Yeah, you probably haven't heard of it, it's pretty obscure. But they say the tides are caused by the disc of the Earth rocking from side to side.
With that in mind, you must be making my tides, 'cause you rock my world."
You should have been all,Eddy would have nailed her, and posted pics.

No I didn't because I'm seeing someone. I will admit that I haven't got round to telling her about the Flat Earth Society.
Charge her $256,295.22. Also, throwing stuff away without her knowing may be dangerous. D:She is a hoarder. Things myst be thrown away. Half of her bed is buried under magazines and tissues. Her kitchen counter top doesn't exist, and neither does the kitchen table.
Also, clean her house because you are her daughter. Don't ask for money. If she offers a tip, take it thankfully, but do not give her a bill.No. And Thork, I called her with the job offer and of course I'm not going to ask for a professionally priced bill. I will give her a giant discount. She doesn't think her house needs to be cleaned. And my brothers aren't helping me with this task.
I have to make sure the cats are okay anyway so I asked if she would pay me to clean her house.
...
I have no idea how much to charge her.

Why the fuck would I clean a house that I rather burn down? It's disgusting and I know she'll fill it back up once I'm done. She is not OCD, she is just lazy and probably lonely. But trash will not keep her company.
I will do it only for the money. I will repay her for wiping my butt by taking care of her as her mental health deteriorates.I have to make sure the cats are okay anyway so I asked if she would pay me to clean her house.
...

She is your mom. She wiped your butt. She wiped your nose and made sure the boogeyman was not under your bed. Clean it the way you think that she wants it cleaned, and if she gives you a little money, then great. Do not do it for the money, though.
No, I was replying to both of you simultaneously.Are you confusing me and Thork?Also, clean her house because you are her daughter. Don't ask for money.

Good luck, rooster. I hope she doesn't freak out about you throwing her stuff away.I already told her I was going to do it, but that I wouldn't touch the previously mentioned bills, medical records, or anything else dealing with money. She seemed resigned. A woman doesn't need the past 12 issues of People or printed off chain emails. Or food that went bad a year ago.
Rooster, she is your mom. Be nice to her.Oh, if you only knew.
Rooster, she is your mom. Be nice to her.Oh, if you only knew.
A week and a half til I move! Excitement!!!!Yay! I love moving. Or maybe I just loved moving out.
How much is on her tab so far?Not much. I've been throwing away her trash for years for free. I just need to throw the stuff away so I can get under and clean properly. I'm hoping the before and after shots help me put a price on it.
The flirty little swimming instructor was not at the pool today. In fact it was kind of empty.
I start a new job soon as a "Community Manger" for a company that deals with some pretty high profile clients. I'm not at liberty to share who, but it is video game related and I'm VERY excited about this. Seems to be full time gig and at $9 an hour I'll be pulling in about twice a month what I was making with the shithole part time retail gig I have now.
Soon I will be drunk with power AND alcohol.

I'm feeling pretty ill. :(
I didn't sleep well. Cold sweats, then freezing cold, then boiling hot. And this morning my stomach feels like its doing somersaults. Add to this that yesterday I was really working on pressing my chest into the pool whilst I swam, my back muscles today are in bits. So my whole middle is in complete agony. I can't get comfortable and I feel as weak as a kitten. I'm eating soup now, having passed up lunch. I haven't even the energy to torment Saddam, which is most unlike me.

Wow. That would put you at slightly above half minimum wage here.
I haven't seen a pay slip that sucky since I was 15. Enjoy your poverty.
National minimum wage here is $8. $9 an hour, plus the fact that I'll be there for roughly 40 hours a week, will be just fine with me. Especially considering probably half the time I'm at work will be spent playing video games during the downtime.

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of more than triple your pay coming into my bank account.
Sorry to use this place for a vague whiny post, but how come every single time I start to feel good and optimistic about life, something has to happen to make me feel absolutely miserable? Why does life suck and why do I bother? Fucking fuck. :'(Well life can't be good forever. It's full of both terrible and awesome.

Obviously they're not. Aussies are always complaining on reddit that videogames are about $120, completely ignoring the fact that they make more money. Cost ratio is still slightly better for Aussies, but it's not too dissimilar to our own.National minimum wage here is $8. $9 an hour, plus the fact that I'll be there for roughly 40 hours a week, will be just fine with me.

Are you comparing that to the cost of living in both your areas?

Not if you are a woman with a pile of jewelry, and don't know what is all worth. As a man with the knowledge of such things I can be most helpful to them, especially with a pocket full of money. I don't wear the jewelry, I give my wife the stuff she likes. The rest I sell for scrap. Profitable, not creepy.Oh yeah Thork, woman hit on me all the time while working the antique shops and flea markets. They like a man with money and knows his gold and silver.*women

You have used the word "troll" incorrectly more times than the rest of the internet combined. On a lighter note, I went to a party last night where somebody was killed.
PP was the driver.I resent the accusation.
My son had a cage match last night. Actually, two fights in one night. First time in two years that he has fought. He won both matches. :)

No head kicks. But my son did dominate in the fights that he had.
Where did all her stuff go? Surely there is now an equally messy pile of all that stuff in another part of the house?You assume wrong. In that first picture that is a trashbag under my elbow. I threw about 2/3 of it away. The stuff that she probably uses is in a box. The box is now back on the counter.

Good job but how long before it gets messed up again?I honestly don't know. That's why I'll have to make frequent visits until the house can be sold. For starters, the damn thing is way too big for just herself. So first things first, the goal is to sell it.
She probably needs more help than just a tidy house, she probably needs some kind of psychiatric help.
You said yourself, she's an old lonely depressed woman. And you keep finding the toys you had when you were a kid and all kinds of old things. Are you throwing out her stuff, or her memories?If it's buried under everything she likely didn't even know it still existed there. And since it is physically impossible to throw away memories, I am literally only throwing away stuff.

She may need help. My dad told me that she's never really cleaned though and now she's just an old, lazy, lonely, depressed woman. Which is what I think it boils down to rather than OCD. This stuff hasn't been cleaned/thrown out since I was a kid. Her house would be far worse if she were a true hoarder. I think she can do the work if I'm there.
What do you mean? A boyfriend or a psychiatrist? The former seems like an awkward endeavor and the latter is outside of her means at the moment. Plus she doesn't think she has a problem.Good job but how long before it gets messed up again?I honestly don't know. That's why I'll have to make frequent visits until the house can be sold.

You did a good job. If I ever go crazy and start hoarding and turning my home into a disgusting shithole, I will hire* you to clean it!You have yourself a deal.
I'll pay you in pretty rocks

I accidentally did PCP.
Didn't your mom ever tell you to be weary of speaking to scientists?
We were told it was some "research chemical" similar to LSD.And it was pcp? Those aren't even close to similar. I think whoever you bought it off of was trying to kill you.

He knocked me out and I didn't feel a thing. When I got home I was a bit tired, but that's about it. I don't remember having any pain.
The older you are the more pain is usually experienced. >:( :'( >o<
I was knocked out too. I didn't feel any pain during the procedure itself. It wasn't until a few hours afterwards that I started feeling pain (though that numbness in the lips is always uncomfortable to me).
I ate an entire bread bowl - minus the soup - from Panera, whose bread is notoriously chewy, just two days after having mine removed. It was the most painful tooth related experience I've had to date. I do not recommend the experience. The hardest part was not becoming addicted to percocet.
I was 47, stayed painful for months. I hope yours is good soon.The older you are the more pain is usually experienced. >:( :'( >o<

I gladly took the percocet, though I didn't need it. I even kept some for relaxing at a later date. If you don't want your painkillers you can give them to me. That goes for anyone here.Hey fucker, B Franks runs the FES drug trade. You cuttin' in on my market? Cause I'll be cuttin' in on you real quick boy.

Yeah, its amazing that we managed to have a Navy that was feared by the entire world. I guess we are good with water after all. Remind me, what have Finland ever done, ever? I mean ever? Like, what is Finland's most notable achievement?There are thousands. Lots over 5 Hectares, even more smaller ones.Well, it's not that unusual. There's like, what, two lakes in Britain?Oi mate, there are at least four lakes just in England!

I didn't mention Finland or measure of national quality at all. I just felt sympathetic that you don't have access to real lakes. You just for some reason felt like this is an opportunity to boast that your police state full of chavs and immigrants is somehow better than my home country.
Really, Thork, do you have to be insecure about everything?

England is a has been nation, as most of it's inhabitants are.
The lake was freezing. Somehow colder than last time. The water was reasonably still but so cold. It was so cold my face was stinging. It was 6 degrees C when I got in. :(
I was in the changing room taking off my wetsuit and a Japanese guy was also getting unchanged. He had a tiny little button mushroom for a penis. He joked with his friend that he was normally 9 inches and it was just because the lake was so cold.
I swam about 2km. It was a reasonable effort because I still don't really know how to sight properly and I struggle to keep my heart rate down because of the cold/murky/choppy/dark conditions that make me panic a bit.

Also I've seen "what lies beneath" and I keep thinking this bitch is going to drag me under. :(
I am doing a race down the River Thames in just over a month, so I need some practice.
I actually had a dream about Thork last night. It wasn't creepy or sexual at all, before anyone gets their hopes up.:(
Thork didn't say anything really, probably because I have no idea what his accent sounds like or how fast he speaks.Would you and others like to speculate on what I sound like? Then I'll post some video with me talking if you like. Then next time you read one of my posts, you can put my voice to the monologue and maybe you'll 'get me' a bit more or at least I can then talk in all your dreams. Or maybe it'll be a source of huge amusement because I sound nerdy/nasally/common/posh/Arabic/high-pitched/low-pitched/female/old or whatever.

I don't have a Mancunian accent or sound like a scouser of anything.Aww, I was really hoping you'd sound like a scourser :(
Eyh, eyh, calm down, calm down, eyh ehy.I don't have a Mancunian accent or sound like a scouser of anything.Aww, I was really hoping you'd sound like a scourser :(

I'll upload something in a moment.I actually don't have a southern accent.
Yeah, I speak reasonably quickly. I have a very "English" accent and by that I mean I sound like the people in Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. I don't have a Mancunian accent or sound like a scouser of anything.
I'm thinking maybe we should have a post your accent video, so that we can compare. I'm sure you sound like an adorable Southern Belle. :-*

A data entry office job on the same floor as A&A and our friends (but I'm not on the same team). And this needs to happen since I have a lot of student debt to start paying off.
Hooray!!! Celebratory alcohol tonight for me.
BA doesn't mean much except that you got a BA. To get anywhere in history you need a Masters which I may go for someday. Just have to pay off that debt first.I finally have my first big kid job!! ;D

You are very intimidating. I was especially impressed when you were startled by a tree stump.I thought it was a deer. Or maybe a badger. Or a rapist. Anyway I thought it was something cool I could film and get a million hits with on youtube and make tons of money as it did something hilarious like poo or flick the bird at me.
Thork doesn't have the voice of a person I'd hate, and yet I hate him anyway.I've been telling you bastards for years to be nice to me. I keep saying "I'm a nice guy, you'd like me in real life". And you keep saying "I hate every little thing about you and want out gouge out your eyes and suck on the jelly because you are a complete bastard" and I'm thinking, if you could only hear my reasonable and mild mannered voice, you'd be so sorry! Fucker. >o<

I love going on walks. I walk usually between 1 to 3 hours a day. Though, the areas in your videos seem much more relaxing than my immediate surroundings. I have to go further than a mile to get to areas that are really nice. Sometimes I have to drive to an area before walking, which sucks. Though, it is very fun to go out and not know where I'm at and get lost for a while.
I'm pretty sure you're trespassing in all of these. I've alerted the authorities.
What happened to Thork taking Roxy Baby on private walks?Erm, well I thought you'd only be interested in things you don't have in the USA. You know, like 500 year old villages and 400 year old churches and things. Historical stuff. I assumed you had forests in America.
I rather it not be romantic, actually. Just work on finding more old stuff or just show me more adorable little buildings.What happened to Thork taking Roxy Baby on private walks?Erm, well I thought you'd only be interested in things you don't have in the USA.

Is it fine if I take you for a non-romantic walk and have a boner the entire time?
It's really difficult to reconcile ranting forum Thork with video Thork.I give that young lad £5 and a camera and tell him to make me videos. Its the most elaborate troll evar!

^ I was about to say…yeah. :P
In the theater for Star Trek right now though. I am so very excite. Hopefully Benedict Cumberpatch is as awesometastic as usual. :D!
Attraction is more than appearance. o: <A love for his work doesn't explain why people constantly repost his face and for some reason forearm porn on Tumblr. I'm in love with Data but repulsed by Brent Spiner, I still recognize that I love a physically unattractive character and would not fawn over his face.
But I liked that, personally. But I guess that's just me.
I thought the movie was pretty great. I liked the parallel to the original Khan saga.
And I'm pretty sure people find him attractive because fangirls/boys of people like him are more about personality and character than that shallow "omg hes hot" carp. If you'll notice, 99% of his fangirls/boys are fans of his work and actually watch his shows, unlike many of Ryan Gosling's fangirls who mainly see his stuff to ogle him. :P
Well, then they just find him attractive. :P Some people like more unique faces as opposed to generic "hot guys". I know I was always like that; the people most would find "hot" or "sexy" or whatever were "meh" to me, and I'd've preferred someone more unique.I don't like your tone, Supes.

Just because I don't like Cumberbatch's unique face doesn't mean I only like "generic hot guys". I consider this an insult.
That's because as a man you appreciate Cumberbatch's more feminine features like his weak jaw, fluffy lips, and high cheek bones.Well, then they just find him attractive. :P Some people like more unique faces as opposed to generic "hot guys".

I think what is actually happening is that you are ruling out 'hot' people because you don't think you stand a chance and instead focus your energies on ugly people that will likely be flattered by your advances. You suspect the ugly people that no one else is interested in might be interested in you because no one else wants them, and hope they will be of the same mind set so that they like you back. This causes you to intensely focus on an ugly person, almost obsessively as you try to find attractive qualities in a person who is not attractive.Well, then they just find him attractive. :P Some people like more unique faces as opposed to generic "hot guys".

Sorry, that's not what I was saying, I was trying to keep the tone light because I figured someone would take it insultingly. :[ I'm just saying that there are people that like unconventional faces as opposed to what most people find attractive. Everyone's got their own likes and dislikes—Cumberpatch isn't any more or less attractive than any others, it's all up to the individual's perception. You're the one being all meany about people liking him. :'[
Also, I don't see what's wrong with a guy with feminine features.
I've said this before, but I don't feel attracted to celebrities because personality plays too large a role in attraction for me. I sometimes feel attracted to the characters portrayed by celebrities in films or television shows, since they often have a well-developed character that you can start to feel like you know. But the celebrities themselves appear as concrete walls to me; I can't see anything about what's inside them.
I also don't see how it is possible to find someone's attraction for a person you find unattractive to be sickening. Even if you find the person in question to be sickening, the mere fact that they make someone else feel happy is worth celebrating.

Yeah, I think "focusing your energy" as Thork so eloquently put it on celebrities who don't know you and have no interest in knowing you, and who play fictional characters for millions of people, is a little unhealthy. I don't get how people develop crushes on celebrities, when their chances with them are next to zero.People who obsess are so creepy. It's a very teenage thing to do. I can't even tell you how many Tumblr posts I've seen where the girls are actually depressed that they'll never know Tom Hiddleston.

I thought the movie was pretty great. I liked the parallel to the original Khan saga.
I thought it got a bit silly, to the point where they basically just threw logic out the window and copied the ending of TWoK. It went beyond being a homage.
Well if it makes you feel any better I completely disagree with him. Only one situation was similar to the original movie and I thought it was a logical homage.I thought the movie was pretty great. I liked the parallel to the original Khan saga.

It would be nice if you would confine the spoilers to the Star Trek threads, or at least warn when you're about to give away the ending (not that I wasn't expecting it, honestly).

It was money I had saved from my last job. I've narrowed it down to two suspects.

There's probably more shit I'm forgetting since I saw the movie late at night with friends that talked through it.
Yeah, I was actually gonna say, most of those points were explained. The only part I really agreed with is the romance sublot. Not a particular fan of that.What romance subplot? Did Kirk and Carol even kiss? There's tension just like in TWoK, but I don't think it's supposed to be a thing.
There's probably more shit I'm forgetting since I saw the movie late at night with friends that talked through it.

The doctor said she'll be ok to travel because she's been taking the antibiotics since friday. The problem is more that the antibiotics have given her the shits, I expect her ear is mostly ok now, she doesn't complain about it anymore anyway.
definitely no "romance subplot"
It was just a tiny part of the story. What was the problem? It had to be in there cause they're dating anddefinitely no "romance subplot"

I was going to make a thread about the new Xbox revealed today, but I figure if no one else has then nobody cares. Which you shouldn't. It's going to be the worst.
For those who missed it:Why don't they aim those conferences at their audience? Teens, children and young men who should know better? Seeing 40 year old businessmen trying to sound excited about a child's toy is just weird. Its a very American thing. The fake over the top enthusiasm for products. It certainly doesn't travel well. It makes those presenting seem glib and insincere and that makes me think they are lying and untrustworthy. If American's buy into it, all well and good (I doubt they do) but it certainly needs adjusting for a European audience.

I still like the 360. And I will likely get the next gen as well.
You should filter the background noise. Linux has several free video editing applications that will allow you to do this. Also, if the line mess ups were intentional, you should consider not doing them in the future. Other than that, it was very good for what it is.
What video editor did you use to splice it together? It should be able to handle the noise if it is any good.adobe premiere. As far as I know, it can do it but I'm more comfortable dealing with sound in audacity.
My hope is that TFES will give some criticism that we otherwise won't receive elsewhere, because we aren't popular on Youtube.This has nothing to do with the quality of your film, and everything to do with youtube.

Youtube rules and suggestions..Yeah, you pretty much hit the nail on the head. However, We don't really want to sell ourselves to Youtube. Making videos basically started because my friends brother had equipment and we had ideas. The intention was never to "win Youtube". Rather, it was to make something that is both interesting/entertaining and of high quality for a lot of people to see. That said, success on Youtube is a success everywhere on the internet. So, if I want people to see it, being successful on Youtube will help... Eh I don't know. Maybe I'm tricking myself, but I think there is a pretty large group of people that appreciates quality on Youtube, and I guess that's what we're trying to exploit.
My feelings about the video..Yeah, I had some qualms about the beginning as well. I was worried that too much time was spent before they got outdoors. The action was the focal point. The dialogue in the beginning could've been shorter, and as you said, more natural. And I guess there does need to be a hook. The idea for this one was at first shooting somebody with a bow, and then a gun, and a couple other concepts. We had to build a plot around that to give it some context. As a result, I guess the indoor dialogue could be seen as boring.
Don't listen to Thork. He never knows what he's talking about, no matter if it's physical fitness, things that Google does, or effective comedy/comedy marketing.Shush. Don't be jelly of my advice giving skills.

I have been slightly disappointed and confused to find that you can buy a better selection of teas in supermarkets in Finland than in England. What the hell?! And there is almost no loose-leaf teas in the supermarket (tesco), do English people not use tea pots anymore?The English are cracked teapots.

The only concession I could make is that iced tea is greater in quantity as Americans liberally pour this sugar-packed drink down their gullets like they are attempting to quench the untamable fires of Vulcan. The act is almost tantalean, if you'll forgive the anachronistic juxtaposition, as each drop (in a very flat-earth maths way) makes the drinker yearn for two more in a devastating positive feedback loop that ends in diabetes and Honey Boo Boo's of terror rascaling across this once proud nation.

It could have something to do with your auto-correct or something.

I am baffled as to how you quoted jroa saying the word and still didn't understand how to do it yourself.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. Is that not iced tea?I'm not getting at anything. I'm merely trying to act as a medium here. Most Europeans never had "real" ice(d) tea, and the name is most commonly used to refer to a Lipton/Nestlé product with something like 2% of actual tea in it (cf. Blanko's "literally juice").

Coughing constantly (loud chest-wracking dry cough), tightness in chest and lungs felt like they were full of a tickly fog that would clear briefly when I coughed and then I could breathe but then it would fill up again. Went on for a couple hours getting worse and worse til I got home and used someone's ventolin inhaler a few times.

Yeah it helped after 4 puffs. Had to take 10 puffs this morning though to stop the coughing and chest fogginess. There's lots of pollen in the air so could be that. And friday night it got really bad after I sat next to a fire when we were grilling.

You might want to check with a doctor. This could just be an air quality problem rather than legitimate asthma. My mom has asthma and it's just difficult for her to breathe no matter what so I have no idea what different levels would be like.

We don't usually get crazy weather here, either. Weatherwise I'm situated in a pretty ideal location. This was really freaky.
When I realized what was going on I was scared shitless. I was in a building surrounded by huge plate glass windows and my cubicle is right in front of one of them. I guess the windows are pretty sturdy though (or the wind just wasn't strong enough to break them) because none of them shattered.
There were trees in the parking lot where I work that snapped like twigs (thin ones, but still). A couple larger trees came down, along with a power line (I think, I didn't get a close look), right outside of my building.
This is now the second tornado I've experienced in my lifetime. The first was back in '88 when I was living in a little country town south of here called Smyrna. A huge oak tree was uprooted in my backyard. My dad (6 feet tall) would stand in the hole and the top would be over his head. Ha ha. If things had been slightly different, it could have fallen on my house and crushed me.
Someone just tried to reset my password. I'm vaguely creeped out.

Space Cowgirl: are you saying that Thork has given me too much attention, or that I have given him to much attention?
Valid point. We are just feeding the attention seeker.
Over the last few months I've come to realize that about a third of the people I'm close to are suicidal, and it really sucks.

On a brighter note, I just got out of school for the year.

Those were a some of my friends in HS too. Even my best friend was heavily medicated. Then her childhood best friend killed himself in TX. She handled it horribly and never even told her parents, in fact, her parents came to me to find out what was going on. She had been sen to a psych ward twice. Eventually I stopped talking to her because she couldn't grow up at all. She say in her room constantly smoking weed, couldn't drive, couldn't clean anything, and couldn't take her dog outside. She was a terribly negative and completely useless person. She sent me a message the other day and told me that she had changed a lot and didn't hate me. She looks like a fat lesbian now. The other girl I knew that was suicidal is obsessed with body modification and does weird alt club dancing now or something.Over the last few months I've come to realize that about a third of the people I'm close to are suicidal, and it really sucks.How old are your friends?

Not "suicidal tendencies", severe depressive disorder and on medication. They aren't emo types, they're the type who disappears for two weeks and tells everyone they had pneumonia.
OK, I feel bad now.
My friend (known him since I was 7) got married today. I was invited to the wedding and completely forgot. I just had no idea it was this weekend. I just saw his facebook status update. :(
It wasn't deliberate. I've just had so much on with starting a new job this week and I have been out a lot with new social circles and meeting business people for work opportunities and swimming in lakes and cycling 20 miles a day, and basically I have been so wrapped up in all the new things I am doing and where to be and what to do and have obliterated any routine I had, so I forgot his wedding. :(
He even reserved me a seat on one of the important tables but he now lives 200 miles away and we don't speak all that often. It just fell out of my head.

You are a terrible, self-important, friend.
The comma after "self-important" was unnecessary.

Cymbalta may be right for you.

Anyway, definitely knew the kind of people you know. Get away from them. Like you said, they have severe disorders and there's just no helping them. They'll (maybe) grow into really strange and dysfunctional people.
I think the salient point was negativity breeds negativity.I think the issue is much more complicated than that. Not all types of negativity breed negativity, and some types of positivity breed negativity.
I meant specifically people who are medicated for serious depressive disorders. The friend I spoke of was bipolar, for example. People who just get depressed now and then are fine.I think the salient point was negativity breeds negativity.I think the issue is much more complicated than that.

That said, I think both rooster and Supes are right, to a point. It's definitely unfair to label all depressed people as needy bastards who can never be good friends, but people who do happen to be needy bastards are probably not worth anyone's time, regardless of their self-esteem or mental health otherwise.

Also, I feel soul-strangled having interacted with you ;) (I'm kidding. Send me a song to listen to b/c I'm so far behind on "Now Playing" that I'm afraid to visit the thread)

Academic writing reads much better now I know that 'salient' doesn't mean 'salty'
She was definitely friendly and outgoing. She was just incapable of having a close healthy friendship. I hope you don't dump your insecurities on other people and make them feel like shit- make your problems their problems, project your shortcomings onto them, etc.
I'm sure there are people out there who handle it better than she did/does. But I for one would not ever get myself involved with someone so negative or insecure again, someone so unwilling to take responsibility.
I don't think you really understand. It's not that she talked about her issues, it's that she had such unhealthy issues. She just couldn't interact in a healthy way.She was definitely friendly and outgoing. She was just incapable of having a close healthy friendship.

I don't. I open up to those who make it clear that they want to be of some sort of help, but that's about it. As soon as they make it clear they really don't want to hear any more of it or I get the feeling they don't want to (which can happen prematurely as I'm terrible at reading people), I shut up.
inb4 Adolf Hipster turns out to also be ThorkYou are too late..
But I for one would not ever get myself involved with someone so negative or insecure again, someone so unwilling to take responsibility.
I was attached at the hip to this girl for 5 years. And by "take responsibility" I mean recognize your own insecurities and not force them on everyone else. For example, just because she may hate the idea of having a boyfriend because she couldn't get close to a guy in any meaningful way doesn't mean I should not date either. She thought that I was not invested in our friendship even though I'm the one who drove to her house (an hour away) every weekend because she was too scared to drive. This girl seriously thought that because I didn't want to kiss her feet, that I didn't love her (nope, definitely not kidding). She was just fucking crazy and only got worse by refusing to acknowledge her problems. That's what I mean by taking responsibility. It is an illness that she can't change on her own, but she needed to recognize that she had problems and stop trying to medicate/self medicate them away and blame everyone else for her unhappiness.But I for one would not ever get myself involved with someone so negative or insecure again, someone so unwilling to take responsibility.
Isn't there the danger here of failing to recognise the genuinely medical nature of these conditions in a lot of cases? I doubt you would talk in the same terms about someone with cancer, or a serious disability. If you acknowledge that mental-health disorders are just that, then it simply doesn't make sense to talk in terms of responsibility.
Now, I'm not trying to poo-poo your experiences here. It may well be that this person was not someone you could help, that her state of mind could only negatively affect yours, and that your continued attentions might only have made things worse. You're probably right about this person. I just think that talking about mental health issues in terms of 'responsibility' is very dangerous.
The Bloke was(is) fairly mentally ill, he would always threaten to commit suicide if I left him and had paranoid delusions about our neighbours. It drove me crazy, only so much you can take of being around someone like that.

Even though she was my personal terrible experience, I also knew those just like her thanks to my fantastic alternative high school, who chased away everyone who tried to get close. Teenagers and young adults that are heavily medicated for mental illness are nearly impossible to be around and ultimately it's for the best to just not get involved.
Today I found out that I need to have my wisdom teeth removed. :(
However, the dentist seems to think they are responsible for my jaw cracking problems. It would be very nice if those problems go away, but I am pretty nervous.

Translation: rooster had hers taken out a year ago, and that for some reason makes her feel more like an adult.
I haven't had a proper check up in about 10 years. I've visited the emergency dentist a few times though since then for temporary fillings but then I never go back for the proper filling. I am terrible, just terrible.At least I'm not the only one who doesn't go to the dentist.

ahhhhhhh i need sleep
I'm leaving for a Canadian cruse tomorrow. Should be fun, eh.Even though IWTB lives up there, you should be able to avoid him and have a good time anyway. Where is your cruise going? Great Lakes? Atlantic? Pacific?

For how long will you continue the unfunny Thork bit????
Did my first ever race this morning. 180 people. It was full of swim teams and triathletes from all over the country. :(
Anyway I finished a fairly respectable 27th. Not bad for a bloke who taught himself to swim using youtube. I started in the second wave and that was annoying because I kept passing people from the first wave and it meant I had to keep looking up all the time so it slowed me down. Also I missed the finish and had to swim back for it. That's experience I suppose.
Time wise I swam 2.8k (probably closer to 3k with all the meandering) in 37:18.
I forgot my underpants. I'm typing this commando. I must address that at once.
Thanks. I practice quite a bit. I swam round the lake twice today and went on Sunday too. And it probably was 3km by the time I was done. My friend managed just over 3km because you end up meandering all over the river (he had a gps watch on).Did my first ever race this morning. 180 people.

3K in 37 minutes is very good!
takes me about 30 min just to swim a mile.
well done!
I can't imagine swimming 3k. I feel proud of myself if I swim 30m...Its exactly like swimming 30m, only it hurts more and takes longer.
That doesn't sound too much fun. I'd rather swim 30m and then lie on the beach.I know.
I'm getting fat :( I think my metabolism broke

Front crawl all the way. I have pretty strong shoulders. Its actually slightly harder in a wetsuit because the neoprene is stretching against you creating even more shoulder work.Did my first ever race this morning. 180 people. It was full of swim teams and triathletes from all over the country. :(

In long distance races, do you alternate strokes? I know for a fact I couldn't freestyle for 3 km without my entire shoulder exploding.

Was it a LADY?Have you seen Hostel? :-\
I am in Utrecht, NL. It is good. Met some Italians that I met last year who are still cool, and some other Italians who I'd never met before who are also cool.

I've now moved on from Utrecht to my summer course. Of the 130 people here, 100 are women. I like those odds.
Put her in a home.Homes are extremely expensive.
So, it's likely I won't be on on Mondays and Tuesdays (and maybe Wednesdays), because I volunteered to keep my grandma company while my dad's at work. She has Alzheimer's, and it's getting worse and worse. She'll forget things she said 30 seconds ago, she'll think I'm her son or my dad's her brother, or think my grandpa (who's been dead 15 years) is around and, when she realizes he's not there, be convinced he's cheating on her. It's really sad.
I was with her yesterday and today, and it was not easy. There's not really anything to do at their house, either, so... I talk to her for the ~10-11 hours he's gone, keep her company, make breakfast and lunch, go out for a walk around the block with her, keep her occupied, etc. I've heard the same stories and jokes about 100 times. I can't say it's a load of fun, it's pretty sad, boring, and stressful, but I'm gonna keep doing it as long as they need it. I feel so bad. Not only for her, but for my dad and aunt and all. It's not easy on anyone. :[

I was with her yesterday and today, and it was not easy. There's not really anything to do at their house, either, so... I talk to her for the ~10-11 hours he's gone, keep her company, make breakfast and lunch, go out for a walk around the block with her, keep her occupied, etc. I've heard the same stories and jokes about 100 times. I can't say it's a load of fun, it's pretty sad, boring, and stressful, but I'm gonna keep doing it as long as they need it. I feel so bad. Not only for her, but for my dad and aunt and all. It's not easy on anyone. :[
That is a noble thing to do. It sounds like a ton of work as well as being an emotional drain knowing that it won't be remembered. I commend you.
she'll think I'm her son
THE TRUTH IS REVEALEDshe'll think I'm her son
omg
Put her in a home.
My grandmother died of Alzheimer's. She would talk to us as if we were old friends in the 50s or something. When my mom and uncle did finally put her in a home it was because she lost most functionality. It is very stressful and frustrating.

Agreed. Supertails is probably the best of us.
she'll think I'm her son

N'aww, thank you guys so much! But you are very wrong about that. :PSeriously, it is pretty incredible.
Make her a TFES account and let her post.I am pretty sure that is how levee got here, let's not suggest that.
If it makes you guys feel any better, though, I think I'm finally about ready and over my FES self-consciousness to say I'm a girl. It'll be nice not to have to worry about what I'm typing, too. I actually slipped up once or twice and nobody caught it.
Tits or GTFO
I am in love with Supertails. Prove me wrong.

Dude. Seriously.
What is surprising is that people bully you for being odd. You seem like an average girl to me.
If it makes you guys feel any better, though, I think I'm finally about ready and over my FES self-consciousness to say I'm a girl.I don't care what you want to be. Me saying I'm a horse doesn't make it so. even if I think I'm a horse trapped inside a humans body. I'm still a human. I'm not going to be dragged into your fantasy.
That doesn't surprise me at all. I've been in that situation myself for most of my school career; it doesn't take much to make people turn on you, especially stupid people in large groups.you mean Windows users? No wonder you got a hiding. I hope someone gave you a dead leg just for Bill Gates.

Thork has thrown so many male-specific insults at Supes that he can't accept the fact that she's really a girl. Also, based on this thread (http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php/topic,59052.0), he may have been hoping that a gay relationship could form between them.
Thats very good of you supertails. My grandma died of Alzheimers, it was depressing visiting her, she didn't remember anyone except for one of my brothers that she called the wild boy. She went from looking really young with lots of hair to looking like my great grandma did before she died in just a couple of years. In the end she just spent all day and night lying still, and was like that for a while before she finally died. She was just too healthy physically to die sooner, good reason not to be too healthy, not much point living if all you do is lie there not remembering anything.
And no one was surprised.

Supertails, I'm glad you are caring for your grandma, nursing homes are sad and depressing. I've cared for three of my grandparents, one of them had Alzheimer's, and one had dementia (which is early Alzheimer's). The way their memories work is strange, they can remember stuff from 20 years ago, but not from yesterday. Perhaps you could pick up some jigsaw puzzles, a deck of cards, or a dominoes set. Find out what games she played when she was young, I bet she can still remember how to play them. It will give you something fun to do to pass the time, and it might even be good for her.
Having had my own experience with Alzheimer's, I don't envy you. It is extremely stressful and depressing. Kudos to you for taking that on that duty.
lol, losers
I'd be lesbian friends with you Supes :-*Now that sounds interesting...

So she identifies as a girl, but what is her sex?
I was informed last night that a good friend of mine, whom I meet by online gaming and had the opportunity to meet once in person, was tragically taken from this world by her husband by way of a murder-suicide. I was pretty devastated last night by the news, and I am still not sure how to come to grips with this.
So I got an e-mail today. Some American guy saw my linkedIn profile and was like "Hey, we have this super high profile job that pays $100k a year and we want you to do it. You'll be in charge of pretty much everything in the UK.".Somehow I passed the telephone interview. In a strange twist, they asked if I could do the next interview by telephone as well. If they keep talking to me over the phone, they are going to end up giving me the job. They can't see my shifty eyes whilst I lie to them over the phone.
My initial thoughts were ...
- That's a lot of money
- Clearly you don't know what you are doing. Someone will fire you after I have been hired.
- This must be a scam
- He's going to shit bricks once he finds out he has hired a flat earther.
- Could I get away with this?
I have a telephone interview next week. I checked the guy's name and details. Seems legit. He's on the company website and used his profile to contact me and has a bonifidey company e-mail address to boot - which I used to get a job spec off him. I'm confident that he is going to realise I'm a cretin, but as you have all seen, my voice doesn't match my personality. I actually sound like a nice friendly guy.
I will update you all as to how he found me out in due course, but its a fun way to spend 20 mins. And of course every so often someone somewhere commits a gross act of incompetence. Lets hope I'm that act. I suspect the other candidates can't all be monkeys, though. :(

Went out boating with my brother. I let out a girly scream half way, so Jroa should enjoy this one. (I'm behind the camera).

He did not call you Thork even once. You should have told Chris the rules. >o<
Also, that bush scared the crap out of you.
Moist bush scares the crap out of you.Big moist bush does, yes.
So Æven subscribed to Thork on Youtube so that he could post one of his dumb videos here as soon as it was uploaded, passing it off as his own. That, or Æven actually is Thork. Terrible news either way.That Aevan is terrible, he is just trying to ride Thork's coat tails. Thork is gone and the next thing you know this imposter shows up, it's just terrible.

I was right, it was enjoyable. Only one thing missing, but there was nothing I could do about that :(
Was it a LADY?
my friend got a kitten
im holding her and she's fallen asleep on me after purring on me forever and i'm all emotional thinking how this defenseless adorable little creature snuggled me to sleep and finds my lap and arm to be a suitable, protective place to lay her head for the night
my motherly cuddly instincts have kicked in and i feel like a mommy. i want to take her home ;o;
Can't you adopt your own cat for free or something?
Supes, you can have one of my puppies!
Kittens are adorable.
I don't think so, I'm not a huge dog person. Sorry. :[
jroa, you really want to get rid of those puppies, eh?
Dogs are terrible. Just terrible.
Dogs are terrible. Just terrible.
They are superior to you.
I used to work at an animal shelter, and while cats weren't free to adopt, they were much cheaper than dogs. When you consider the vet bills that the shelter takes care of (initial check ups and spaying/neutering) it's pretty cheap.Can't you adopt your own cat for free or something?
I don't think it's free, no
I had a dream two nights ago. In it, Nazis killed all of the American government, but there weren't enough Nazis to physically occupy America, so nothing changed. There was just no government.
I've realized I'm developing a stutter. It started out with little things, stumbling and stuttering over words now and then, but it's been more substantial the past few months and I'm pretty sure it's getting worse. :[See a doctor.

Unless you've recently been hit on the head or something, you're not going to develop a stutter this late in your life. That's not how it works. Just try to relax whenever you're talking, and you should be fine.
Supes, are you taking any prescription anti depressant drugs?
It sounds to me you're becoming anxious about stuttering which maybe causing it.
In the UK its free. It seems very mediaeval to me that a person would be denied healthcare on the basis of personal wealth.See a doctor.
That costs money. :[ But if it somehow got serious and I get a bunch of money, I will.
In rare cases, stuttering may be acquired in adulthood as the result of a neurological event such as a head injury, tumour, stroke, or drug use. The stuttering has different characteristics from its developmental equivalent: it tends to be limited to part-word or sound repetitions, and is associated with a relative lack of anxiety and secondary stuttering behaviors
A stutter can be for all kinds of reasons. I got one at uni because I was smoking half an ounce of pot every week for 5 years. I left uni, stopped the drugs and the stammer went away after about 5-6 years. Yeah, that long. Mine was more of a pause as my brain searched for a word. I guess it had some kind of neural path damage and my brain needed to make new connections which took a while.
Good luck. With the race and the girl.I'm sorry, I didn't that was you.
I was at a club the other night and some drunk old man kept slapping my arse and shouting "liverpool" - it was a little irritating.

Were the first two guys using steroids?The first one finished in 13 minutes 26 seconds. Being as the world record is 14:31, I don't know what the hell happened. I'm assuming he used a boat. He'd gone off and got a coffee or something by the time I'd finished. Never saw him.
Hmm, Datsallfolks said recon the other day. It's reckon. Not reconnaissance.
And congratulations.
Thork should quit taking beta blockers and find out what juice the first place guy is on.

I ate my lunch quietly and pondered how a guy in It would know so much about chicken restaurant menus. :(
The menu was huge and when I looked at it, all I could see was pictures of chicken. And then when the freckled ginger girl said they weren't doing fried food, I couldn't work out which bits of the menu were now of no use. Somehow I left the restaurant feeling like the bad guy. I didn't enjoy my lunch at all.I ate my lunch quietly and pondered how a guy in It would know so much about chicken restaurant menus. :(
Did you at any point consider reading the menu?

Nobody cares, Thork. So I got a job as an IT specialist at a small medical company. When nothing needs to be fixed, I'll be filling the role of pharmaceutical technician. So I'm basically a doctor now and I expect everyone to address me as such.

And for my next interview, they want me to deliver a powerpoint presentation.
People who know what they’re talking about don’t need PowerPoint.
And for my next interview, they want me to deliver a powerpoint presentation.Quote from: Steve JobsPeople who know what they’re talking about don’t need PowerPoint.
Man on telephone: "You will need to give a 5-10 minute PowerPoint presentation as part of your next interview."
The aim of the interview is not to find out if I know what I'm talking about. Its to find out if I can send their customers to sleep by subjecting them to 21st century beige.
But if you didn't use PowerPoint or the like, you could show that you are able to deliver a more powerful message, assuming you can remember all of the material.
But if you didn't use PowerPoint or the like, you could show that you are able to deliver a more powerful message, assuming you can remember all of the material.
If I don't use powerpoint, I have failed to adhere to the strict rules of this tedious game. It is like me entering an egg and spoon race and you telling me that I could run faster if I just put the egg in my other hand.
I know this, but I'm not trying to win an egg and spoon race. I'm trying to be a business douche. I need to dress like a business douche. Talk like a business douche. And make a powerpoint presentation like a business douche. I didn't make the rules. I'd be happy living in a cave and clubbing hot ladies over the head whenever I got horny. But I was born 40,000 years too late and so powerpoint it myst be.
Its going on forever. We are shedding candidates all over the place, but still it goes on. Next interview is Sept 10th. Then a week later a trip to Georgia for the final two candidates and then they pick one person. I've got to be honest, if I'm in that final two and I'm not the person they pick, I'm going to feel pretty inconvenienced have rattled up 13,000km + a train trip to London, + a powerpoint Presentation, + 4 hours of phone calls and 1 hour of interview + e-mails + filling in an application form (why they want me to do that now I have no idea). the offer of employment has to be made before the end of September in order that the newly employed bod is able to fly to LA for some convention a week later to press some flesh.But if you didn't use PowerPoint or the like, you could show that you are able to deliver a more powerful message, assuming you can remember all of the material.

And so it must be. Also, this is the longest interview process I have ever heard anyone having to go through.
Thork, if you hate the requirements for this job so much, why are you applying?I hate the interview process. Not the job. The job is flying around the world talking to people and being paid lots. What is not to like?
I must have done a dozen PowerPoint presentations in school. And if you're going to be a business douche, you'd better get used to it right quick. Instead of bitching, you could be coming up with a nice, clean layout.
They haven't given me the topic yet, so I can't get an early start on it and make something awesome. So its gonna look like every other piece of shit pp presentation.

Its a lot of time to put in to get nothing out of it. This is why I don't want to make it to the final two if I'm not going to get the job.

How can you hate the interview process but not the job? That implies they are interviewing for skills that aren't used in the job, which makes no sense.
Best of luck. I am not far from LA. If you get it and end up there, I will buy you a pint to celebrate and let bygones be bygones.I would end up doing something terrible. Drenched in your blood and crouched over your flinching body I'd be screaming "Its flat, see how fucking flat it is! Say its round now I've torn your jaw off, say its round you piece of shit noob!" >o<

If Thork makes it to GA he will be very close to me. This is actually a tad frightening.I won't tear your jaw off. :-\

Most employers still rely on tedious interviews full of stock questions that are too vague and broad to properly relate to any specific job, and the person who gets hired is the one who has the best interview, not necessarily the one who will be the best at the job.
Sometimes but other times I get to experiment/play with new stuff so it balances out.My job required no computer repair. Just a lot of questions.
Sounds like a pretty dull job.

So I got a job as an IT specialist at a small medical company.
If you aren't terrible, you can come work for me. I will pay you more, free healthcare, and other good perks. Relocation expenses are on you though.

I threw a book at a spider the size of a hockey puck yesterday
Thork what did you look like as a baby?I was cute. As babies should be. In fact all babies in my family are cute. Were make very cute babies.
Yesterday a large spider appeared from behind my desk whilst I was typing. I let out a bit of a girly whimper. I then went to get a cup but when I got back, it had gone!
I slept badly knowing it was somewhere in my room.
Then this morning I found it. Trying to ambush me from my sock drawer. >:(

Why didn't you just scoop her up and throw her out of the window???? I did.
You don't need to keep posting pictures of it.Sorry. I've become a little desensitised to its features over the last month or so. I forget how shocking it is when you first see it.
and my imagination was pissing me off.

Are you sure that's a human child? It looks more like a tadpole to me.
She does have a big head , but I'm willing to bet she'll grow out of it.It doesn't help that she also has a scrawny body. She's lacking that cute baby pudge.
She'll probably be cute enough in a year or so when her body catches up to her head.A year! I have to look at that freakish creature for another year?

I have yet to see a baby that isn't ugly. This baby is not remarkable.
Damnit, Thork. We don't care.

Can you for seriously fuck off, like you promised you would?+1
Also, now that I have the money I can spend some on cosplay. I think the first 2 I'll work on isFaithSheik fromMirror's EdgeOcarina of Time anda female Jayne Cobbsomething else that isn't really important.

Why would you dress up as female Jayne? There's no such thing..
And Supes, I feel like Sheik is a little ambitious to start out with.
I still think it might happen, I would just need a good sewing machine first (which would probably be a Christmas present).And Supes, I feel like Sheik is a little ambitious to start out with.

There are a lot of crossplay Jaynes.
You can't cross dress a character with no set gender.There are a lot of crossplay Jaynes.
I think it's weird and looks awful when people dress up as opposite gender characters, it kinda breaks how I see the character in my mind. Only good cross gender cosplay I've seen is Commander Shepard.

Every time I see the word "cosplay," I crack up.

Yeah, but she's famous because she regularly dresses provocatively and spawns a million controversial 'sexism in gaming' articles every time she cosplays (in addition to being attractive). Doesn't mean she's some sort of cosplaying god that shouldn't be defied.Yeah, which is pretty obnoxious and why I honestly prefer her crossplays more (like her Assassin's Creed outfits).
Good luck with it anyway. A Cobb costume is 90% beanie so it shouldn't be too difficult.

Sick sick and more sick! That is my life!!! But damn I wouldn't change the puking princess for the world!!! Xx
Imagine she knew you were ranting about her baby on this website.
What I find odd is how much this mother is posting about her baby. Especially taking pictures of a sick baby. Kinda weird to me.It has been going on ever since the day she squeezed that abomination out of her fat chuff! >o<
Pictures of a baby covered in vomit are not for sharing on facebook.Yeah, what the hell does that woman think she's doing? No one wants to see that ever.
Had to come home at lunchtime today. Am feeling awful. :'(

Let's hope it's fatal.
I ended up staying home from work yesterday as well, apparently a lot of people in my building were complaining about headaches and such yesterday.I know what ya mean. People get jelly of dem curls.
On an unrelated note, a woman at work told me that she would love to have my hair. I'm currently growing my hair out to donate it so it is longer than usual, 9-10 inches currently, and is naturally curly. I've always had mixed feelings about women telling me they want to have my hair. It makes me feel good that they would want it, but at the same time I feel weird because I'm a man.
Does anyone else find it really fucking weird for Thork to post a random person's baby on FES?
I understand Thork is definitely retarted, but it's pretty clear that's just...weird. It's not like he did it as part of a greater rant or attempt at content, it was just calling a random baby ugly. Maybe it's because I skip ~80% of his posts, but even for Thork that's fucking weird.Does anyone else find it really fucking weird for Thork to post a random person's baby on FES?

Yes, the person on IRC whose name is "Noops" is not the person here with "Noops" in their avatar, which also happens to be their username spelled backwards.Classic Particle Person here folks. I never said his name was Noops, and he already had an account made with his (actual) IRC username. In short,
I did interview 45 for the conspiracy this morning. Well it feels like 45 as its going on so long. I did as well as I could have hoped. If they don't want me, there was nothing I could have done about it. So, will find out on Friday how I did. :D

Who thefuckfriendly are you? Because there was a person nicknamed Noops on the FES IRC, and I don't think it's you. Which makes your avatar strangely coincidental. Can you shed any light on my mystery?

Anyway, the real tragedy of that thread being locked is that you didn't post in it first. I was expecting a great rant from you.I can't be seen to be endorsing you as a mod, Saddam. But I wasn't opposed to the suggestion so I didn't post in that thread.
For those curious, my nomination of Saddam was purely of my own thoughts on how to make this forum quit being terrible. As much as I hate Thork, I could see worse things in this world than him becoming a moderator. I mean, not many, but there are a few.It is destiny. And then you will all be sorry! >o<

I am not opposed to the Thorkster really, but what is to prevent the same exact thing from happening again? Remember he was deflowered for not being able to work out an issue with an administrator privately, but made a public spectacle of it. If JD wouldn't allow Saddam because of past behavior, I can't see how he would allow Thork either.

The problem was that JD was abusing his power. I called him on it and he removed my curator status. I actually wasn't in the wrong. But there is no point in being a mod if you can't mod, especially being able to mod the crap John Davis often puts into the upper forums. I'm not going to let his rantings in and then remove someone else's.
Anyway, past behaviour my arse. I'm not interested right now because I've no time. I'm off to Barcelona on business from 20-28th so you all get a week away from me, + I may/may not have another interview in America before then. And of course then I might be starting a new job. So I'm way too busy/too unsure of the future to commit any time to FES.
If they make Saddam a mod, its likely he'll be not a mod again by the time I'm ready to start posting regularly again, anyway.I've behaved good, make me a mod.You don't get endorsed. I know what you did.
I would make the greatest mod. I post upwards of 10-20 times a day, I am a constant presence in the upper fora and I know right from wrong like diddly from squat.

5 K marathon? ???-_-
I didn't a zombie 5k last October in Nashville and the Hero Rush in Springfield in April. Both were a blast because they weren't straight running. I particularly liked the zombie one, running for your "life" is great motivation to keep going.I wanted to try that one. :(
Indeed. My friends and I had planned to dress up as the zombie Avengers for this year's zombie run, but they never organized it because of all the other zombie runs in the area. I've also fallen off the wagon since April, but have plans to get back to running in a week.I didn't a zombie 5k last October in Nashville and the Hero Rush in Springfield in April.

It's weird to think that we could potentially be doing the same 5k event...

Haven't tried that one yet, but from what I've heard it's basically the Hero Rush but more challenging. Once I've donated my hair and my head and breathe again it'll be easier, I overheat really easily atm.
Kinky.
Never had the naked dream myself. But I did once dream I was bitten in half by monster.
The worst I have are ex-girlfriend or imaginary girlfriend dreams.
As well as put my hair up into those Emilie Autumn pigtails/ponytails things...
So I had my first "naked in public" embarrassing dream.I've had a few of those dreams too, but for some odd reason or other, I don't remember feeling embarrassed during them.
How well do you guys remember your dreams? I usually forget in the first few minutes of waking up. The really good dreams will last 2 days in my memory of I'm lucky.

I always remember at least one dream every morning when I wake but if I don't focus on the memory I lose it after an hour or so, which is why only the more interesting ones stick in my head. I remember one dream when I was a man and I had sex - since then I have had penis envy.
In my dream sex was so much better as a man hence me being jealous of men having penises and having better sex.I always remember at least one dream every morning when I wake but if I don't focus on the memory I lose it after an hour or so, which is why only the more interesting ones stick in my head.

Thork, why do you keep posting pictures of your child?
So I've decided that I'm going to go Halloweening this year, accompanying my nephew. And I am going to go as Don Juan (the character in my avvy), if I can. :] Part of me wants to go as Jacket, but that'd cost me ~$100. Don Juan is awesome anyway, and the costume is simple enough! All I need is a horse head, that green shirt, jeans, a baseball bat and some fake blood.You are going to a party wearing a latex horses head?
So last Tuesday I did a job interview in London. I thought it went pretty well. I felt optimistic. However I am going to Barcelona on business week after next and have to book flights etc. I explained this in the interview and they told me they would let me know either way on Friday so I could make plans and book flights. Its now Saturday night and I have still not heard anything.Well they're likely not there now so if you don't hear anything by Monday afternoon (their time), call them.
I know that no news is not necessarily bad news, but I'm kinda sitting here waiting for the phone to ring all weekend and I'm feeling if they wanted me they would have called me in time.
I just want to know really. Its ruining my weekend. :(
They may have offered the job to someone else and are waiting for them to accept the offer.They are supposed to pick two/three candidates and send them to the US for the final stage.
There is no job in the world in the world that needs a process this long and convoluted to select the best candidate.

No, it still shouldn't take more than a few weeks to select a new CEO, and it usually doesn't.
What exactly is this job you're applying for, anyway? Look, you don't need to give us the name of the company or anything, but a description of the job itself might help us understand why they're treating what should be a simple hiring process as if it's some kind of elimination-based reality show.
Oh, that job. Sorry, but they've already given it to me.I'll find you. >:(
Karma hates me.

Oh gee, I wonder why.

Rooster is correct. Things like landscapes and history are of far more importance when judging a country's worth than its inhabitants.Than it's inhabitants, yes. But not things like laws and policies. I mean damn, I live surrounded by conservative christian rednecks and meth heads. You learn to ignore the trash.

Living in the bible belt is fun isn't it? The people may not be the only judge of the area, but they will surely leave a bad taste in your mouth with horrible interactions. I'm sure that once you get away from Paris, France is quite the amazing place.Honestly, I've gotten used to everything in the bible belt so it's not such a terrible place. Although I'll never get used to seeing fat women in tiny shorts and big cowboy boots walking around with their flab and cellulite shamelessy jiggling and rippling with every step. ew

Well Thork? Any word?
Thork,
Thanks for your message. You are certainly a fantastic candidate. Please
book your trip to Barcelona and we will be in better position to give you
an update soon. It will not be the end of the world to have you come to
****** after you finish in Barcelona if we need you to come to ******
as a finalist.
Thanks for your understanding. We apologize that we are not as nimble as we'd like to be with these decisions and are awaiting timing of next steps
from our superiors.
Also hi, I've just got back from Iceland.

In other words they gave the job internally as they planned all along and the interview process was just hr ticking boxes. What a complete waste of my time and money. Days off work to interview. Time preparing presentations, train fares, new shirt and two months of this crap.
I didn't get the job. It was for a company called Gulfstream.
I asked the guy if I was to do the interview tomorrow, what piece of advice would he give me? He said I was the perfect candidate and didn't have any advice. He said the deck was heavily stacked against me and that they had to go with a guy with "significant Gulfstream experience".

Thork fell off the wagon.
I smoked the 20 I bought. I'm home now. The heat was making me want to smoke. That and the tale of misery that is my career.Thork fell off the wagon.
Is it true? Have you relapsed into smoking again?
On a related note, I'm about to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the last time I smoked a cigarette. Funny that it coincides so closely with the day Thork became a smoker again lol.Congrats Roundy!

Yes, my life is so empty because I can't believe in a bad fairy tale. I would rather have some old mythology guiding my actions and moral compass than a terrible story from the middle east.

You should have told her that it doesn't matter because the Federal Reserve is in charge anyway.What did you say?In said "shutdown" (that was important for her).
Did you use the word 'facetious'?
She asked me a few questions like what the shutdown means for people, how things have changed, and what I think will happen.
I told her most people don't notice it in the short term and unless one side blinks first the two parties will collapse under their own weight.
Nah people have been getting upset specifically about her riding a wrecking ball naked and licking a sledgehammer. Yes, both of the things happen in the video but I think it's pretty tasteful.I made a miley cyrus thread. No one was interested! >o<

I was also mistaken for a professor recently. I'm 19, which makes me 17 years better than Thork.Yes, but I don't smoke, drink, take drugs or take it up the bum. If you are going to live life in the fast lane, its going to take it out on your face.

We know how to get shit done.
This is why private companies make the best employers. They don't have shares up for public sale, so the private partnership that owns them is free to set whatever business goals they like. No petty politics, just people getting shit done.
My employer is a private company. We know how to get shit done.
That only works if the owner knows how to get shit done. The obvious downside is that the company will suck dicks if you have an incompetent owner. This happened at one job I used to have. What you meant to say is that good companies make the best employers, but I think everyone knows that already.

I never said that all private companies made good employers. However, the structure of a private company is the most conducive to making good but unpopular business decisions, since there are no public shares on the market or voters to consider, and therefore no other stakeholders to keep happy. Of course it still requires competent leadership to succeed, Captain Obvious.

It's the most conducive to making decisions no one but the owner has a say in.
This doesn't make it a better model. Having a large body of people vote on a particular rule or course of action is always better than one person having sole discretion.
Why do you keep using the term "owner" as singular?
Do you plan to back up this claim with any reasoning?
Why do you keep using the term "owner" as singular? Do you understand what a private company is?Because it's not unusual for a private company to be run by a sole proprietor.

A group of people who are on opposite ends of how they feel something should be run would cause major conflict and nothing would get done. Or if something did get done, it would be so full of compromise that it may not even do what was asked of it.
However, a group of shareholders are usually all on the same side and have equal desires.
Then I guess publicly traded companies are just retarded!

We really need to make a thread chronicling Thork and all the dumb things he says. We could call it Thork's Greatest Hits or something.

I spent all of yesterday at a training conference, paid for by work, learning how to be a better manager. Today is the conclusion of the conference.Being a good manager is a lot like dealing with children.

If you are managing temps, you get a lot more out of them if they are frightened of you. Fear motivates those who worry about losing their jobs at any moment. If you befriend temps, they tend to take the p*ss because they are not likely to have goals of promotion or career progression. If you come over as soft, they feel safe and don't work as hard.

Speaking of managing, I got promoted to being manager. Which is a lot of extra work, but I'm learning zillions and earning millions (well, not exactly), so it's good.
But I haven't been ignoring FES totally... see, the little spare time I can put toward FE stuff has been dedicated to a talk I'm giving on the 29th of October in Cheltenham (http://cheltenham.skepticsinthepub.org/Event.aspx/1773/The-Flat-Earth-Society). It's an hour-long talk followed by Q&A, so preparing it has been (and is...) fairly involved. If anyone's in the area and feels like giving me moral support, feel free to attend!
I remember my first few weeks as a team leader, which is more or less a junior management position and the one I'm in now. At first I wasn't entirely sure if it was worth the extra money, but I've come to appreciate the value in helping others achieve their potential and learning to communicate more effectively with them.
I give loads of presentations at conferences etc... the worst bit are the questions at the end.
Apart from that it's a bit of a jolly.
My situation is a little unusual, in that because our team is very small (three people including myself), my job is less focussed on managing personal, and more focussed on defining and implementing policy (yes, that business speak is vague, but deliberately so). But what's nice is that because it's a small team, I get to do a lot of everything - adwords campaigns, SEO, analytics reports, social media, newsletters, overseeing packaging design etc. It's cool, because although I enjoy it, I don't think I'll be there forever, and even if I quit tomorrow I'd leave with bucket-loads of transferable skills and a way better CV than I had when I started in March. Plus it's a really relaxed working environment - I pretty much set my own hours, and the place is very non-corporate.
But I think we're talking about the same thing at a broader level - it's funny getting to a point where you consider your job as part of a career, and start taking pride in your work. I've always been a good worker, but previously I'd work hard because I felt I had to, rather than because it was something I enjoyed for its own sake. It's amazing how agency and autonomy affect your attitude to work.
Haha, penis.

I went go karting as part of a work charity thing today. I'd never done it before. It was fun.
I got t-boned as I slid round a corner and my ribs really hurt though. Hoping they are bruised and not cracked.

Probably. I put half an inch on my guns since I started going to the gym a few weeks ago though (initial new to the gym burst you always get). But I'm really tired right now. I cycle 20 miles a day (to work and back), gym 3 days and swim 3 days. Then add in anything else like go karting or paintball and it half kills me. I'm too frickin' old to train like this. I don't look almost 36 but I'm fighting a losing battle with this body.I went go karting as part of a work charity thing today. I'd never done it before. It was fun.

I like Miley Cyrus Wrecking Ball the best. The state of music right now is in crisis.

Thork, if we went by what's in the Top 40, we would have to consider the state of music to have always been in crisis.

I was looking for a song I heard in the gym last night. Its kind of a club anthem ... but no idea. Its not in the regular charts.
>implying those were the only songs in the top 40
I would be interested to see an actual run-down of the Billboard top 40 from 1964 though - my guess is that there would be a good few other classics on there. 1978... not so much.
He never left.I meant Thork the name. It has been revived!
Thork is back!And he is just as terrible as ever.
Ok, so its 3 days later and my ribs are still very sore. It hurts to breath deeply, sneezing is excruciating and I have to lie on my right hand side.
Did you ever notice that most of the jobs that everyone complains about being stolen are crappy jobs that no one wants to do anyways?
I've never experienced broken ribs but they did puncture my lung once. That was fun. Thork has weak ribs.Lack of sunshine does that to lots of Brits.

An animal (a mouse, most likely) has died somewhere in the pipe leading to my kitchen sink, so whenever I run the tap the water smells heavily of putrescent flesh. My roommate insists on drinking and using this contaminated plague water to prepare food, insisting that he "doesn't give a fuck". College is so cool.Are you in an apartment or individual dwelling?
Apartment compartment department. Four bedrooms, four idiots, two bathrooms, one living room.Have you notified the management?
The solution is simple:
Find the main water supply and put some(a lot of) acid into it. A lot of acid. It'll dissolve the mouse eventually.
Just don't drink the water for a while.

Yes, I think we all have. Too bad the dysentery is already setting in.

Why are you Thork againBecause Æ is a total tw*t to type into a smart phone to log in and I decided that it doesn't matter what third name I picked, you'd all still call me Thork.

Obviously.
She sounds very low maintenance to me.You didn't see her . Everyone she met, "can I have your business card, can I do a speech at you next conference, have you seen my products, are you interested in ...."

It was exhausting. If she had an off button, I would have flicked it. But she is hot and very smart. I'd guess my IQ is about 120 or so. I dunno. Never had it done. But she'd be 160+. I think after a while, she'd be bored of me.
But there is no way she would be low maintenance. "Have you done the washing up? What about the ironing? You haven't calculated pi to 300 digits like I asked ".
I dunno. Like I say ... hot but probably a bit out of my league.
By the way I'm only sharing this with you because I just got home and I have been drinking a lot.
I suspect that I would be a constant source of disappointment to such a woman
I think she will be high maintenance.Irrelevant. What makes you think that she could put up with you long enough for that to become an issue? Just ask her out before she comes to her senses.
Hmm, I don't know. She sounds like an alpha woman. They're usually just obsessed with their career and will always hate men a little. She might sleep with you but she'd be too crazy to settle down.
Still, you're pretty desperate yourself.

I agree with this. From experience the most sexist people I've come across have been higher management women.
I've seen a few but there's one in particular who hated most women at her grade and thought most of the men above her were sexist. She would also favour any women below her.

Thork, she's definitely out of your league. In fact, just about every woman I've ever met is out of your league.I'm an ok looking guy thank you very much. And I am funny and smart and am honest and loyal. >:(
Ask her out to lunch or something harmless. If she says no, it's no biggie. You'll be sorry by next year if you don't even try.Ok, so I e-mailed her after a google to get her work address and she texted back. Now possibly because of the posts I have made on this website, God hates me very much. I think he's a round earther and he made all the immigrants and steroids users that I hate. So anyway he decided to stick his heavenly sandal up my arse again. I received the text and it said "Hi <insert real name>... " and I swiped to open it. At which point iOS7 fucking deleted it.

Just ask her out before she comes to her senses.I have. God is trying to ruin it for me. :(
Oh yeah, don't forget a regular shirt over your tank top undershirt.She's not a muscled middle-aged man looking for a twink.
Hmm, I don't know. She sounds like an alpha woman. They're usually just obsessed with their career and will always hate men a little.

I could see her looking at me like I was a turkey baster.
Still, you're pretty desperate yourself.Thanks. ::)
Most blokes probably don't ask her out because they ask exactly the same questions you're asking; they get scared.She is at least as good looking as me (probably nicer), definitely without question smarted than me, and has way more money/success than I do. I do think if I had a relationship with such a woman, I'd end up being like on of those male angler fish where the female absorbs the male and the only thing left is a small pair of testicles that gets used for breeding with.
Ask her out!! Stop being a wimp.
Well Thork wants babies.She hasn't even replied to my e-mail, butassuming it ever got that far, this is a likely scenario. Back to the angler fish. :(
She might want a family too, but Thork might have to be the stay at home dad.

And a lot of upper management men are sexist too. It's just a very competitive environment in general.Without being too patronising about it, you have only left university a few months ago. You have never had a proper job or worked with many people in upper management positions. You have been meeting middle managers. Middle mangers are usually a bit smarter than the people they manage but have poor people skills. Upper managers and and I mean people who earn $100k+ are usually lovely people. They are people who can influence others, make great speeches and make time for others. The only exception to this rule is when the ungrateful child of a company's owner gets a job. I'm generalising as much as you now, but the really big earners in my opinion are usually lovely. That's why they earn big.

I regret going to college. My job does not require a degree, I did not learn very much more than I already knew, and I pay close to $300 every month for it. I see no benefit for it.

"He is setting the bar high for the next Pope. "
That's setting the bar pretty low if that's all it takes to impress people. There's a million things the Catholic church could do that would actually help people, and all of them are more impressive than having fun in front of cameras.
I'm not taking issue with what the Pope is doing so much as the way Reddit seems to have a huge hard on for a guy that is essentially the same as every Pope previous to him. Some of the comments in that thread are down right dumb.

Somewhere in there, a compliment is buried.He didn't claim that she was a supermodel or anything.But he did say she was prettier than himself, which I don't believe is true.
And after the things he said about my boyfriend I would have been justified in saying something worse than I did.Your boyfriend hacked my FES account, spent months following me around the forum harassing me and made no secret of hating my guts. It is little wonder I thought very little of him. However we did make our peace and I don't remember being mean to you since, despite repeated provocation.
Seriously? You insulted him on my facebook like two weeks ago and you had a terrible paragraph about my rodent-esque boyfriend sweating over me. Saddam will remember.Somewhere in there, a compliment is buried.He didn't claim that she was a supermodel or anything.But he did say she was prettier than himself, which I don't believe is true.And after the things he said about my boyfriend I would have been justified in saying something worse than I did.Your boyfriend hacked my FES account, spent months following me around the forum harassing me and made no secret of hating my guts. It is little wonder I thought very little of him. However we did make our peace and I don't remember being mean to you since, despite repeated provocation.
Anyway, I'm really excited about seeing her again. Its been ages since I met someone I really like IRL.
I made a really funny joke on facebook 2 weeks ago which you deleted because you have a broom up your backside. You need to get over the huffing-pig post.Seriously?

I thought this was supposed to be a mature forum. Why is there facebook drama coming from 30+ year old people?
That was actually a little funny, in a weird kind of way.You see. :D

you had a terrible paragraph about my rodent-esque boyfriend sweating over me. Saddam will remember.
rooster, please pull your panties out of your junk, and learn to joke around.Jroa, you have no idea what you're talking about. I can take a joke at my own expense, but I won't tolerate Thork making fun of my boyfriend just because he's super jelly.
Hell no. I am telling rooster to take her panties out of her ass. That is all.You still don't know what you're talking about. It's not just anyone making fun of anyone, it's more personal than that. You could make fun of my boyfriend for all I care. And I'm allowed to delete facebook comments I don't like, that's none of your fucking business. I'm also allowed to not like it when Thork attacks my boyfriend without your permission.

So when Thork makes a disgustingly detailed comment it's hilarious, but when I make a mild statement it's "wow" material and I shouldn't have stooped to his level? (lulz like I was even close to being as offensive.) Thanks for the advice, I'll take it to heart.Hell no. I am telling rooster to take her panties out of her ass.

Agree, mostly. You don't have to stoop to his level though. Although, you could have been much meaner I suppose.

rooster, if you don't like what he says, then ignore him. Problem solved. Just ignore him. If you wanna be friends and talk, then accept him. If goes over board, then ignore him again.Yes, this is mostly what I already do when I get offended by Thork. I just don't appreciate anyone telling me to pull my panties out of my ass when they don't know the entire situation. Especially when that person is a moderator.
Ii is real simple. If you need help with it, let me know.
It's not just anyone making fun of anyone, it's more personal than that.Only because you make it like that.
I won't tolerate Thork making fun of my boyfriend just because he's super jelly.Super jelly of what? Two people I have never met and never will that live thousands of miles away? I'm not a basket case.
Its just how I write sometimes. Its meant to be funny. Not personal. the more you take it personally, the more it seems I touched a raw nerve. Let it go. I'm not worth it.Guess the number of fucks I give? Hint; it is not greater than one.Go on. Give just one fuck. How much would that hurt? That fuck might just be enough to stop me doing something stupid in the small hours whilst I am becoming obese on special brew lager, fapping furiously in front of two bandy-legged Thai whores negotiating a plethora of vegetables on the internet, wearing nothing but the dried urine stained boxer shorts I have not bothered to change since my thread about lizard men was closed by a mod. Your fuck would mean a lot to me.
I'm not worth it.
Shut up. I'm worth 3 of you.I'm not worth it.
Agreed.
Shut up. I'm worth 3 of you.I'm not worth it.

While it's true that I would fully expect you to retaliate if I say something mean, sometimes your insults of him are completely unprovoked. Anyway, I'm letting this go for now. I was mostly upset at people telling me how to feel or that my comment about your lady friend was harsh and/or unnecessary. I explained why I wasn't meaner but that I had a right to be. Anyway, I'm not mad at you currently.Shut up. I'm worth 3 of you.I'm not worth it.
Agreed.

Objection, Your Honour, witness evading. Thork, for how long did your father abuse your mother before they divorced and how does this affect your view of women today?
Why don't you hurry up and end your miserable existence so we don't have to see these kinds of embarrassing displays?
Wahhh, I don't want pity. Suck it up and get a job, or eat a bullet. Dreams fail, deal with it and quit being a pussy. That's my advice, which is more than you deserve.
If nothing else on this Forum, Rooster has proved interesting enough to inspire a sad sack of impotent trollfat - that would be Benjamin Franklin - to make threads about her; probably whilst drooling unintelligibly out of his blubbery wet lips and shaking with sobs of desperate self-loathing, and subsequently allowing this disgusting concoction of fluids leaking from his dense meaty head to lubricant his feeble and bitter attempts at masturbation. You know what they say, B. Frank: A bullet in your mother's womb would've been worth two in the bush.
I remember him always trying to play the alpha badass and just acting like a douche in general.
Sounds like I missed out on a lot of fun in those days.
I only vaguely remember A&A. How is he?Well he had a good laugh when I read those old posts to him.
You'll grow out of it, don't worry.I remember him always trying to play the alpha badass and just acting like a douche in general.
You'd get along with him well then, right?
Probably not. I'm anti-social, so I probably wouldn't even talk to him much if I met him. I only act like an obnoxious jackass on the internet because I'm safely behind my computer. I don't get offended nearly as easily either. Then again, I don't have a girlfriend who wants to jump on every D she comes across.
Yep that's me. I want everyone's D. I remember when you tried to talk to me privately on AIM lulz.I remember him always trying to play the alpha badass and just acting like a douche in general.

She barely has boobies, so that makes even less sense, unless you are referring to her showing them off.No, I was just further commenting on why I think it's weird. I think she has a pretty face, but I know Maxim doesn't care about that. A pretty face might be the only thing going for her cause her body is plain. Maxim probably just chose her on the amount of media attention she's getting.
I never indicated that small boobs weren't valid, just that she isn't busty so it'd be weird for Maxim to pick her.She barely has boobies, so that makes even less sense, unless you are referring to her showing them off.No, I was just further commenting on why I think it's weird.

Also, she has boobs. Just because they're not big doesn't mean "she barely has them". A woman either does or does not have breasts. Small boobs are valid, jerk.

Thats a bit fucked upRight? This guy was working in the same building, so creepy. If he hadn't shot himself he might have gotten away with it. I also wonder if he's killed other people.

My mate's mum used to work with a guy that ended up executing a taxi driver. He was a mentalist. When she heard he was a suspect, she was tempted to ring the police and be like 'yep that guy is fully mental'. But that's not really solid evidence for the police to go on. Apparently one of the things he said to her one time was, 'If I found out I had terminal cancer, one of the things I'd do before I died would be to put a gun to somebody's head just to see the look on their face'..."Mentalism is a performing art in which its practitioners, known as mentalists, appear to demonstrate highly developed mental or intuitive abilities. Performances may appear to include telepathy, clairvoyance, divination, precognition, psychokinesis, mediumship, mind control, memory feats and rapid mathematics. Hypnosis may also be used as a stage tool. Mentalists are sometimes referred to as psychic entertainers."

It's not a terrible or incredibly interesting city, but for some reason it keeps getting high ratings for places to visit. I guess it doesn't have terrible crime, it has a tv show now (which annoyingly obstructs the walk to work), good places to eat, and tacky cowboy shops and bars. It's not too bad. Maybe you should stop sometime.So there's an open casting call in Nashville for Star Wars this Sunday. I'm kinda tempted to go. I mean really, why not?

I'm discovering that I kinda dislike extreme liberals. They're all emotion with no logic sometimes. It can be very aggravating.
I've been making a lot of typos here lately and it's because I use swipe typing on my phone. Please forgive me.I think EJ is doing the same thing.
The superior attitude really gets me too. They're usually "intellectuals" because they have a bachelor's in psychology or something but if they can't make a decent argument then they just take the moral high ground. Either way, you're wrong and a dispicable person.I'm discovering that I kinda dislike extreme liberals. They're all emotion with no logic sometimes. It can be very aggravating.
Same, their superior attitude really annoys me sometimes. They also don't seem to realise the practicalities of their argument half the time.
PS: I am not going to the casting call.
A lot of time and possibly my dignity. My local news channel said they were turning away anyone outside of the age ranges, but I really doubt that's true. On the website they never specifically say the person has to be the age of the character. But if it is true that's an even bigger reason not to go.PS: I am not going to the casting call.

Do it for the fun of the audition. Not to get the part. How cool to watch the film and see an actress and think many years later "I auditioned for that role".

Hello, SirAlexMann, and welcome to the forum. I look forward to reading you contributions here. Also, don't let the roundies on here get on your nerves. They are just here to troll and will try to argue about any proof you set before them, and then proclaim over and over that nobody ever gives them proof. It is almost as if they are trying to play some childish game were they just say, "Nah'uh" over and over. Anyway, don't let the round Earthers get you down.

Hello everyone, So is this thread like Holy Ground?

Hi! Nah, it's not holy ground, it's just one thread on this forum where we have friendly chats.
As you can tell it's not posted in very often, because people prefer being meanies.
Hello all, I have a question! If the sun is like a spotlight than in order to not shine on one area at all it would have to move in a different formation than the round earth sun or rotate to point in an other direction in Wich case only making the sun shaped oval instead of circular.. so if the sun is like a spotlight.... Thaaaaan why does it need to go under the flatearth and than back around? Couldn't it simply move from one spot to an other? I think this idea is contradicting! Am I confused or missing any information?

So in response to this thread (http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=53851.0), since those who replied are in favor of the thread, and nobody has made it yet, I thought I'd go ahead and make it happen. This thread has no official topic, just with the intent of being somewhere for everyone here to talk about random things that don't quite merit their own topic, but may be interesting enough to share. You may certainly talk about personal issues here, but let's try to keep it from being the LiveJournal thread. Also the thread title is subject to chance since this is the only thing I could think of (although I considered "The Friends Zone" which was mildly amusing but may give the wrong impression to newcomers as to what the thread's about)
Myself, I've been off of my full time job on medical leave, due to some unexplained pain in my foot for the last month and a half. Turns out, as I found out today at the podiatrist, I have a bunch of tiny stress fractures in the bones connecting my 2nd and 3rd toes ("index" and middle toes) on my left foot, she said most likely due to the fact that I have zero arch and an unusual amount of the load of my weight gets transferred to the wrong parts of my feet when I walk. She wants me to stay off it for at least the next three months, which totally blows because I'm getting sick of sitting at home like a neckbeard playing vidyagames all day (which I would never have imagined I would say that.)
On the bright side, she's submitting me for disability so at least I shouldn't have to worry about my bills now. I've managed to barely scrape by with my part-time, side job, but it wouldn't sustain me forever at this rate.
So there that is. Anything interesting going on with any of you?

I try to be friendly, it’s part of my rehabilitation program, but does talking to the deranged on a screen count? My counsellor says it is only practice, that it gives me a chance to weigh options rather than going straight for the eyes, but ultimately he wants to be able to take off the safety glasses.

Thank you all. We have started the arduous task of planning the wedding.

So happy birthday 2 me (26th) and a surprise holiday.
Wifey booked this in January for 16 of us without me knowing, unfortunately due to Boris's incompetence she had to whittle it down to just six at the last minute due to " the rule of 6".

It's true, everywhere we go it's headless horsemen, clanking chains and creaking doors, and believe me you have not heard a creaking door if it isn't at least a 3 centuries old piece of 4 inch oak on a rust pitted iron pin hinge.
Could be, that was my bedroom. how would I know?
Good luck to the glorious leader!
The old idea of ice cream to eat after the op is a no no these days. Lots of scratchy foods, like breaded fish fingers are now the way to go. (Been there with one of my own). :)
I wonder if UPS ships bodies internationally.
So I'm at some dance studio for my 5 year old daughter getting her pictures taken for, I don't know, some kind of picture grift that probably costs me a fortune.Its ok as long as you do it in secret and cover her face with a bag.
My daughter does not look like she's having a good time. As another dancer in her class enters my daughter whispers to me, "that's Ella. She pushes me sometimes." Which makes me think, oh so we've got a bully in the class. Then I get a closer look at this Ella, she has Down Syndrome.
I don't have a lot of experience with people with Down Syndrome but I think that her being a bully is in addition to having Down Syndrome and not because of it. It's not just my daughter. She shoved several kids during this photo shoot. Half her class didn't even show up to this event because they didn't want to be around her.
Which brings me to what I've been pondering, is it okay for a grown man to beat up a 5 year old girl with Down Syndrome? I mean not a full on Fight Club style beat down or anything. Maybe more like a blanket party from Full Metal Jacket.
I would have thought so too. But the mom was there and she was clearly aware of the situation and doing everything she could to keep her in line.My parents never did that to me when i was younger and mentelly ill.
It must be a very difficult situation for a parent to deal with. She's just trying to give her disabled daughter as much of a normal life as possible but she just keeps shitting things up. Must be heartbreaking.
I still feel I might be justified giving that kid a blanket party.

My youngest has his first imaginary friend, a boy named Linky who has no skin.Does... does he have something as a skin replacement? Like, is he steel-plated or something? Or just a horrific pulsating open-face imaginary-human-meat sandwich, sans the bread? I'm somewhere between imagining a Superman kind of figure, or a biological version of C-3PO from around the time Anakin stopped working on him.

The vet just started my tiny terrible dog on heart medication on Friday. I was able to get him to take it yesterday, but today it took me all fricking day to get his first dose. I don't know what to do about him, he doesn't like to eat. He doesn't like most food. I knew years ago that if he ever needed daily medication to stay alive I was going to be in trouble.
He's a vicious little shit, and I love him.
The medicine seems to be working and Boogie is breathing more normally, but now that freaks me out and I am constantly checking to see if he's still alive.
I have never gone shopping on Black Friday. It's too dangerous!
Just wondering....
Do US black Friday sales offer much of a reduction?
I ask, because they have become popular here in the UK. From what I've seen here though, it'll be something like 10% off a TV, and people are trashing the shop and breaking jaws to get one. The stupid thing is, it was probably 25% off a month ago, but they weren't bothered then.
Do you get fake 'sales' like we do here? That's when they increase the price of something a few months before the sale, and then when the sale happens, the reduction brings it back down to its original price.
The Black Friday / Cyber Monday weekend is one of the busiest sales periods of the year. Unfortunately, unscrupulous merchants have been known to jack up their “previously sold for” pricing to make it look like you’re getting a better deal. Is this legal?
Under Australian Consumer Law, artificially inflating the ‘Before’ price during a sales promotion is illegal and falls under false advertising. Here’s what the ACCC says on its website:
It is illegal for a business to make claims to customers about its goods or services — including claims about price — that are incorrect or likely to create a false impression.
Businesses must ensure that consumers are not misled about the savings that may be achieved. Statements such as ‘Was $150/Now $100’ or ‘$150 Now $100’ are likely to be misleading if products have not been sold at the specified ‘before’ or ‘strike through’ prices in a reasonable period immediately before the sale commences.
In addition to the above, merchants are supposed to only display recommended retail prices (RRPs) that reflect the current market price of the item. For example, the price of a two-year old smartphone model should not be compared to the original RRP from the time of release. (Unless the market price hasn’t depreciated. )

He's done really well on his meds every day since that one, but his appetite is almost completely gone. I feel like I'm constantly watching him breathe. The never ending anxiety that I feel is too much sometimes.
It's over now :'(So sorry to hear this :'(
It's over now :'(
I forgot how hard it is not to cry when people are nice.
I've been railing against classic fairy tales for a long time now. It's not so much that they're violent and horrific. It's that they often don't make any god damn sense and seem to go nowhere. It's like watching American Psycho.
What a marvellous dream.
Oh dear lord baby Jesus, they are barely bigger than the end of my finger. Thankfully one of our friends has rehabbed baby squirrels several times and has agreed to raise these two tiny nuggets.

The child me has a problem with pigs. For context my uncle had a small holding, a wonderful spread of derelict buildings and scrub with a pigeon loft, a ferret house and three pig sty's that backed on to a paddock with a huge willow in the centre where the pigs went for exercise, wallowing and generally grubbing around.
Most of the pigs he ever had were fine but he had a sow, a cross Tamworth/demon that weighed about 35 stone (490lb/222Kg), we were told we could scratch her sides, she liked that, but don't put your hands near her mouth and don't go in the paddock when she was there especially when she had piglets.
The willow was the grandest of trees to climb and I went up there one summers day on my bike, there was no one around, I looked in the paddock and couldn't see anything, looked in her sty and the piglets were there, she wasn't out but I figured she was inside in the shade so I skipped the fence and headed for the tree.
It turned out that my uncle had been up earlier and found she had eaten one of her piglets so he had kicked her into the paddock and gone to get his land-rover rather than his car to move them home to finish rearing them in safety.
She was in the shade but that was behind the sty and she was pissed. Pigs can move, luckily she made a lot of noise to announce she was pissed, and as she would have cut me off at the fence I went straight for the tree, no one has ever climbed that tree as fast. Unfortunately my uncle had decided to have lunch and it was an hour and a half before he came back, he wasn't pleased, mostly because he reckoned she would have killed me if I'd fallen but with his pig board he shoved her up the field and told me to jump down and run for it.
For years I thought he was just exaggerating the way people do, but pigs do sometimes kill and eat people.

The little dictator is not so little any more, she's 12! The smaller dictator is still little but dictating at an older level I'm sure.
Only annoying thing about aircraft maintenance, is that thanks to being a dual national I likely won't be able to do my internship at the military place that's local because they don't trust filthy dual nationals.

Hi G, keep them planes greasy.
Spacey, good luck with the wind.
Hell no! you don’t mess with the dead on Lundy, too damn many of them. including 2 giants found in Bulls paradise in 1856 when they were digging the foundations for some farm buildings, interred in granite sarcophagi the male measured at 8 foot 2 inches (2.5 metres), along with beads dated 600-800 BC.
Not to mention the shipwrecks and the mass of potential zombie hordes that could rise from the sea, hardly the sort of company you want to call up on an isolated island 10 miles from the coast with sketchy phone coverage, frequent fogs and lights that go out at 12.30. Have you never seen a horror movie Crouts, because if there’s a tick list of situational give aways to avoid a bloodbath ending, then apart from the stark beauty of the place, Lundy has it all.
She felt good enough to harass the urchin next door, but her energy ran out quickly. I still can't get her to eat food, but she did lick some sour cream off my finger, and she ate a greenie.
A greenie is a very expensive dog treat that's supposed to help clean their teeth. They are not worth the money, but Beebee loves them. I have found a different brand that is half the price, so she gets one of them a day.Ahh :)
