Hahaha. My life sucks because I'm not determined to do anything, thus I never get anything done!

Post by: Qew on January 17, 2010, 04:34:22 AM
well, my life sucks.

These holidays, I've alienated all of the friends I secretely hate in school, and among those that I don't have been
1. Gone to england to stay with relatives
2. Is on a German exchange trip
3. Has been exiled to France by his parents (we threw him a surprise party on the day before his exile)
4. Is currently living with the kid up the road from his house since the kid thinks he's now his best friend and the times I've spent over at my friend's house that kid has called like 5 freaking times every day asking why he can't come over. Stalker.
5. Is hanging out with one of the kids who wants to kill me's girl friend and I'm not going near him because the kid who wants to kill me stalks my friend because his girl friend (lol he'll never tap that) likes him way more than the stalker creep.
6. Kidnapped with his family upstate where he has no internet, or TV, or gaming device of any kind
7. Lost contact with her half a year ago
8. Lost contact with her a YEAR ago
9. Brainwashed by stalker who wants to kill me
10 - 35 Lost contact with them 5 years ago except two kids (just found their phone numbers)

AND I arranged to see those two.. but then I got the flu




wait... that sounds remarkably like the exact reason how and why I found nsm >_> hmmm and now I can spend all of my time with my girlfriend <3
and not be called everyday by kids going "let's go see a movie" :D AND I FINALLY ARRANGED SOME SHEET MUSIC AND DID WHAT I WANTED TO DO (while my exiled friend is sad because he only got to play MW2 once). MLIA.

what... I'm waiting for my chocolate covered popcorn to finish popping so I can eat it while watching The Dark Knight. I had to do SOMETHING D:

Short answer is yes.

BUHH!! You stupid little ***** for taking off all those points off my dimethylcyclohexane drawings even though this university (http://www2.chemistry.msu.edu/faculty/reusch/VirtTxtJml/sterism2.htm) resource says all YOUR CRAP is reversed. And then slashing off my drawings of the complicated molecular model I made in my sheets for notes JUST because you didn't need to grade them and completely confusing a lot of the other drawings because you have no concept of 3D-ness. WELL EXCUSE ME!! I'll let you know that my lab partner and I were the only ones that could get decent IR readings on this latest lab but you're still going to give good grades to the bullshit they write just because you think they understand things better by writing everything out of the textbook and hoping you'll find something you can grade.

Not to mention, you are keeping our lab reports so we can't hand them to another person so they can cheat on their lab. It's freakin' MY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY so you have no rights to it even though you wrote on it. If they think of plagiarizing, it's YOUR fault because you're supposed to punish them for it, not us, and TEACH them about academic dishonesty. Stop to think that there's a problem because you're a lousy TA and no one can understand the shit you actually say and the 1% of the stuff you actually pick up is useful to you. YEAH THIS IS SCIENCE.

Seriously I hope this isn't your day job.

Not doing too good in school. My parents think it's because I don't try hard, but I've been working my ass of the grading period and I end up with a D, 2 C's, 3 B's, and 1 A? And that A is in fucking Guitar class. Maybe I'm just not cut out for school. Maybe get it through their head that I'm just somewhat average.

Fucking customers at work. A lady comes in to pay, but she had bills without holographic lines. Another cashier (who's been working there for years) told me we're not supposed to take them 'cause people tried to bring false bills like that here, so I tell the lady, but I told her I would take hers anyway. She said she'd check it out too. About an hour later she calls me at work and tells me she's going to file a complaint against me because I told her her bills were false and that I mocked her in front of other customers. Wtf. I was kind enough to fucking let her pay with those. I seriously wish for her death to be painful.

Oh my god, I hear you.

At my parents' pizza place we have these reward card type things, where you bring it in and swipe it, and you get a point for every dollar, and at 150 points you get a free large pizza or something like that.

Yesterday this lady comes in while she was talking on the phone (she had already paced a carryout order) and said to me, "I don't have my card, just look it up on the computer."

I explained that we have to have the card to swipe it, and it's impossible to "look it up".

She rolled her eyes (people treat me like crap until they know I'm the owners' son xD) and said whatever. Her friend said something on the other side of the phone and she laughed really loud and said "I know!" She looked at me and said, "My friend says to just look it up!" Then she listened to something her friend said and said to me, "My friend says she's never brought hers in and you guys look it up every time."

I told her that's impossible and she rolled her eyes and said "Well, I guess that's my last time here" and walked out.

Our pizza's delicious. I hope I'm at the restaurant when she comes back.

Haha, that sucks. It reminds me of a customer that came about 2 weeks ago. Customers here have some kind of account where the limit is 500$. Basically if people don't have money on them and need something we put it on their account. So this guy comes in with is son and tells me he was going to pay for everything he hadn't in the past week. He comes every Thursday and since I'm always working I'm always the one who make him pay. He had to pay for about 330$ worth of groceries so he got really mad at his son because it was his fault for buying a lot of crap and not paying for it. He was yelling at his son and then started yelling at me because it definitely was a computer's problem and whatnot. He did pay in the end and said he'd call my boss and blablabla.

At least my boss is cool so there shouldn't be any problem. I have bad eyesight and I have some kind of eye condition that makes it hard for me to see shiny stuff. I couldn't really see the shiny leaves on her bills and those are the proof that the bill's not a false. Since I couldn't see them I didn't want to take it in case it wasn't a real one. Oh well. As long as I don't lose my job I'm fine with that. I wish I could be at the counter when she comes back, just like you and that bitchy customer of yours.

Something like that happened to my mom.s friend. She used to let her pet snake roam in her house, and for a couple of days it'd been acting weird. It would get into her bed when she was sleeping and it had never done that before. The girl was worried so she went to see a veterinarian. The funny part: The snake was actually measuring the girl to see if it was long/big enough to be able to eat her.

You really need some new friends, Ruto.

Anyways, my dad has been getting on me about playing video games. He says I should find something better to do. The problem is, there's nothing to do around here, so I turn to videogames to pass the time. Maybe if you want me to do stuff, get me a car so I can actually go places and do things.

I didn't eat alone. Saria came with me because I could drag her outside  ;D. I was going to treat everybody to food since the event's for me anyway, but I only had one person, so yeah. Bill was like $40 for 2 people already.  I think one of them originally said she was going, but then didn't get the message I changed the day (several days ago) and she just decided not to show up at all to watch a TV movie just to be childish. Everyone else on the list was shopping.

But I want new friends anyway!!

@SFK
While I don't think your dad will buy you a car now, you could try to pick up a new indoor hobby. Like art. It can be really cheap (pencil artist) or really expensive (oil paint set/cleaning materials).  I found my old $30 pastel set==hours of fun.

Actually, someone won a contest for creating a Pokemon.
They called it "Pikablu" because they based it off of Pikachu...

Then Nintendo decided to rename it to Marill. Well, that's what I heard, anyways...

Early concept art shows Marill as originally pink, and its early name was "Marril". The "pikablu" name was just a fan name given after it had appeared in media, but before the name was released (Like Smugleaf, if you want). Just as Slow said.

Yesterday I went to the gym so I was wearing shorts and a simple t-shirt and I wasn't wearing socks either. Then I left the gym because there was a huge snowstorm outside and I had to go home anyways. When I came home, there was so much snow outside that my car got stuck in the middle of the road. I spent 30 minutes trying to unstuck the car but to no avail. Then I noticed I couldn't feel my legs and feet because of how cold they were. Been feeling sick all day, probably caught the flu or something like that. Family/friends said I'm crazy for doing something that stupid but w/e, wasn't that cold. I guess they just have to man up a little.

Also, people think I'm going to commit suicide because I don't give a damn about my health or life in general. Lolz.

Like, I don't care about my health a lot because I WANT to commit suicide, but the other day, I decided not to.
But I still forced myself to shiver in the cold with ice outside, walking around the school building just to make myself suffer.
Why am I so weird? Well, I sometimes enjoy moderate degrees of cold temperatures, but it was also a bit windy.
Well, now I have chapped lips from that. XD The thing is, my parents don't even know that I consider things like that.
They yell at me and sometimes might even slap me, but that happened right as I was already thinking about jumping onto hard concrete from a moving vehicle...
Sometimes I wish they understood me more. I tried to tell my dad today what condition I'm in, relating to depression.
I mentioned that SOME of my grades MIGHT have gone down due to stress. Hint hint.
And he asked, what are you trying to hint? I didn't know what to tell him.
If I thought about it too much, I would have been distracted for the rest of the night thinking about death.
So I told him that I didn't know what to say, and if I thought about it, I would get very distracted...


I don't know what made me make that decision to live.

There's no point in dying at your own hand. If your that near the edge, where you just might jump, do something extreme. Something that you know will make your life worth living, that'll give you a purpose. It doesn't have to be what your parents want, what your peers and friends and superiors want. Just do what you want. Whatever you do, just don't jump off the edge. Because there's no coming back.

I understand. I was feeling the same about a year ago. Now I just focus on small things. For example, if I've an exam to study, I'll just work on that without thinking about the rest. Now I'm working toward being accepted in a certain university. It may sound stupid, but having small goals like that really helps me. As SFK said, just find something you want to do and do it.

So I told him that I didn't know what to say, and if I thought about it, I would get very distracted...


I don't know what made me make that decision to live.
It feels like there is still something that I have to do, before I die...

14 is too young to contemplate suicide.

Things have GOT to get better at some point, or we wouldn't be here. If life really sucked all the time, why do we work so freakin' hard to survive?

You just have to realize that even while it seems your parents get in the way or don't care about you, they really do care. Committing suicide is something that affects people you would have no idea it does. Do NOT make any rash decisions. Try to be accompanied by someone as often as possible. And try to make sure that person is not considering suicide either.

My rant:
I'm tired of people complaining about how "depressed" they are (not necessarily directed at you Jub) when they have no idea what depression is. Depression is NOT just feeling sorry for yourself or even contemplating committing suicide. Depression is an actual medical disorder that occurs due to a chemical inbalance in the brain; not "Oh, the world is against me so I'm depressed."

Also, lol @WK. I have something funnier.

In seventh grade I remember they put picture retake day on the same day as mismatch day. FAIL.

^Yeah, usually people feel sad for a couple of days so OH NOES DEPRESSHUN!!111 They piss me out too. Also, it's so easy to say "Don't kill yourself, everything's going to get better soon" but how do you think depressed people feel when after a couple of months nothing changed? Things do get better at some point, but it usually take time (ie a couple of months/years). Oh and being accompanied by someone doesn't really change anything. I can kinda relate to Jub 'cause I've been in a similar situation in the past.

Yeah, Jub shouldn't do anything. But same as Roz I understand what he's going through. I was suicidal when I was 14 but I guess somehow I realized.. things have to get better, right? Patience! I also tried to focus on the small good things in my life. Just stay strong Jub.

Also, I would like to issue an apology to a certain someone out there for being a bit of a jerk earlier. I think he knows who he is.

I'm the kinda person where things just bottle up. Every once in a while, I let it out, but it doesn't get any better.

Hmm...
Day 1: Happy, Stress: 0
Day 2: Stress:10
Day 3: Happy, Stress: 0
Day 4: Stress: 25
Day 5: Happy, no stress.
Day 6: Happy, no stress.
Day 7: Stress: 30.
Day 8... etc.



Also, thank you for relating to me. It really does help...
Although I admit, 14 is a little bit young to be insane depressed.
But, the pain sometimes goes away, but it feels like it never gets any better (as shown in the example above.)

Oh, and about insanity...
Questioning your insanity is only the first step, isn't it? Because I remember doing that a long time ago.
Playfully crazy is fun and all, but when it gets to the point that you can emphasize with anyone...


It sometimes feels like I died LAST year. My mind, the way I actually act...
I say to myself that maybe it's only a coma, and maybe one day I'll wake up and remember who I am...

She's like one of those attention whores who tried (and failed) to make people hate me because she wanted the attention of this guy in my class even though she had a boyfriend already. I also find it a bit disturbing to date that young. You can hardly be searching for a spouse at that age...

I think my school is being stupid. I mean, on the syllabus it said the last test was cumulative, and it wasn't. Last year's exam was posted for us to practice with and it was cumulative. It turns out it was about the last month's worth of work. This is after I read through 12 chapters in one day to study. Fffff. Not sure how I did but if I have to retake the course, I'll be prepared for the stupid crap the professor is going to pull.

Then I had to do homework for a certain stupid dinosaur...comparing and contrasting three Greek playwrights. And then my sister had to rewrite it so he could understand it/pass it off as his own work. This guy is supposed to be in his last semester of college.

I know year 10 doesn't matter; that doesn't mean I can't be disappointed about crap results. The four exams I cared about: Year 11 biology (83%), year 10 biology (87%), specialist maths (51%) -.--that's the most advanced, and I thought I got about a 70 after the exam, and finally, Chinese. (62%). Honestly though I got 80-90%. Not too unhappy about science, but it's not what I was expecting/hoping for.

School's out. So I'm not as pissed off as usual.

Still hate the holidays. Why do people care that there's something to do with Christmas in the holidays? If you're so offended by the fact that they used the word Christmas to do describe a Christmas themed village thingy in Pennsylvania because you're a Muslim working there, then make you're own damn village centralized around a holiday of your own religion. better yet, don't work at the damn place if it offends you so much.

Its not like Christmas is a real holy-day anyway. Its just the time of year when greed and consumer whorism reach their peak. And isn't the main figure of Christmas supposed to be Jesus and not some obese elf in red, fuzzy pajamas? I don't know if there is a single kid left in the U.S. under the age of ten who even knows(or cares) about the reason Christmas is celebrated. As long as some fictional fat man brings them toys and candy.

I don't know if there is a single kid left in the U.S. under the age of ten who even knows(or cares) about the reason Christmas is celebrated. As long as some fictional fat man brings them toys and candy.

Blame Coca-Cola. Also, I agree with you.

^Meh. This year, I celebrate Christmas for the fact that now, the sun "turns" and it starts to get brighter, and as a time I can spend together with my family. Seeing as I'll spend the majority of the year living a thousand kilometres north of the rest of my family, where there's no sun between October and February, I feel that the birth of some guy a looong time ago is second priority. Santa Claus serves as a childhood memory returning every year, to help me get in the Christmas mood. Disney's version of Christmas is refreshingly non-religious and family-friendly as well.

I can add that in Norway, we use the word "Jul" (more commonly known as Yule in English) for Christmas. The Yule tradition centered around the turning of the sun, and a few pagan traditions I can't remember. Apparently, the Christian holiday was introduced as "Kristsmesse" (Literally, "Christ's mass") by Christian missionaires back in the days, but the Vikings kept calling the Winter festival Yule, regardless of what was celebrated. So here, you can celebrate Christmas without Christ at all. Most people actually do, but a visit to the Church is a tradition for many. Most Norwegians only visit church once a year, on Christmas Eve.

URRRGH

My dad found out I was uploading vids to YouTube, and he thought that was pretty cool. So he decided to watch a "most popular" video on YT. The one he picked was an especially vulgar one called something like "santa is dead: a love story" or something similar. After watching it he is under the impression that YouTube should be banned at our house even though I have explained to him that I only use YT for music.

I don't know if he's actually going to do something about it. But. He thinks he knows everything.

That totally sucks.

That happened to me a few years back, and it took almost 1 year to find everything and put it back again!

Also, Christmas was a huge flop this year. No one came to town, and the presents were useless: Chocolate (I work at a Chocolate Store), an aluminum water bottle (like I need ANOTHER one), a reed diffuser that I will prolly take back, this hat that I will NEVER wear (so Im telling my mom to send it back), and this cooking magazine subscription that was probably the best present I got, besides the free trade organic coffee and tea I got from my vegan friend.

All $200 dollars I got will go into the $450 for textbooks fund. I'm just lucky I have a job and I can keep money saved up to (hopefully) make a down payment on a car at the end of next year.

So... long story short, I will be broke for the next 3 months, so that means Dining Hall food ONLY and I won't have much to eat that is legitimately healthy.

So in conclusion, this was probably the worst Christmas ever. And it didn't even rain (though it is going to dump on us tonight)... it was 65 and Sunny... yawn freaking yawn, we don't really have much weather differences here

Erm no. The French counterpart of "fuck off" definitely isn't casse-toi. It's too "soft" to mean that. Learn to use French expressions or at least informal French before attempting to use them.

Midterms start this Friday. Luckily it starts with *giggles* Web Design. That test will be a joke. But as for my physics and AP U.S history exams? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic.
Post by: universe-X on January 12, 2011, 06:06:29 PM
Oooh, the kids at my school complain a lot about physics and World History. Good luck.

World Geography test tomorrow that I have to study all on my own since this history teacher doesn't know how to burn information into children's heads unlike my last history teacher. And bio test that I hear is easy. And a Geometry test that everyone is freaked out of their mind for on Friday. And because our school is divided into A day and B day, and we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day (but not Columbus day... sometimes), I (A Day) have to take the test on Friday while [B Day] takes it on Tuesday, giving them another 4 days to study the notes we got today. And the teacher says she can't do anything about it even when we all know she's the one behind the scheduling of the geometry classes.

Oh, and I have to lose weight... bad.

Post by: SuperFireKirby on January 12, 2011, 06:39:31 PM
Pfffff... Geometry was so easy(for me anyway). I didn't do any homework and aced all the tests and ended up with all A's and B's in that class. My Trigonometry class is slightly harder, but not too bad. I'm not really worrying about the exam. Even U.S. History won't be totally terrible, except probably for the essay. But Physics ...

Saria was simply quoting what she might say to her gym teacher and was not insulting you in anyway. :-\

I feel like the walls are closing around me and that my chance for escape is thinning by the day. Eventually I will be trapped. I don't want to go to college, but I probably will. I don't want to have a 9-5 job that I'll curse, but I'll probably end up getting one. I don't want to live a life where I regret an unfulfilled dream, and I'm always afraid that's going to happen. I'm losing the battle.

In Tinychat, Roz and Ruto discussed the fact that you can never be too short to use a flamethrower (see Roz's avatar and signature, and the tinychat topic).

When Saria said that to ETF, winter said "wasn't that Roz?" as in having a flamethrower.

Fabbemannen, talking about Roz, said "Or is he too short?"

Winterkid explained that Roz is of the female variety.

I said that if Fabbemannen is having trouble remembering that Roz is a girl, think about sipan (actually Tales, now that I think about it) calling her a bitch--an expletive usually pertaining to females.

Not that any of that makes sense. Still.

Well, life truly sucks right now.

I had the flu yesterday (still have it today). Then I touched stuff and now my parents have it. My mom was with my sister the whole day, but we don't know if she has it, cuz she's not coughing a whole lot or complaining like she usually does. Tomorrow, however, is her birthday party. If she wakes up with these horrible symptoms and 9 people (+ however many parents) come over, they are bound to get it.

What's worse? We don't have enough insurance to cover medicine, because my mom's JUST switching jobs.

Time to pray long and hard tonight.

That's okay! I'll clarify if you want.

"to": going "to" some place, or giving it "to" someone; mostly stands for directions or traveling
"too": also, or an excessive amount; "I am coming, too" or "that is too much"
"two": a number; there are "two" Pokemon games coming out March 6, 2011

"there": a place; "I want to go there"
"their": possession; "The computer belonging to them" is the same as saying "Their computer"
"they're": a contraction meaning "they are"; "They're mad at us" is the same as saying "They are mad at us"

Understand? :)

Well it is a difficult question. If Mr Hyde killed a person, could they arrest Dr. Jekyll for that? I think that they should arrest him but someone else may think otherwise.

He's assuming that you and sipan are so connected (or the same...) with eachother that if you does something we could blame sipan for it.

and why the        would you give me a phone number that goes straight to "your call has been forwarded to"

and when I ask for you to call back in five minutes you need to CALL BACK IN FRIGGIN FIVE MINUTES. IS IT THAT FRAGGIN HARD.


i feel like a friggin retard, trying your phone number that you provided over and over again to no avail. where the        are you


probably should practice piano but probably gonna get yelled at for not fraggin doing homework but i cant because i have to wait for neil and the rubric is bull

piano is homework but not 'necessary' kind? bull         .

Her father told her that living on the campus was omg so awsm. She keeps telling us how her father is the human equivalent of God and so she's going to do do as he says because he's always right.

I AM SURROUNDED BY IDIOTS. Okay so in class today we were discussing religions in different cultures. Someone brings up how God is mentioned in things like the president's oath and asks what would happen if we had an atheist president. SO THE MOST STUPID PERSON IN THE WORLD says "Why don't we just replace the word God with Satan?"

OKAY DUMBASS. I DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD OBVIOUSLY I WORSHIP THE DEVIL.

OH OH. AND THEN SHE GOES ON TO TELL US ABOUT HOW SHE LOVES ENCHILADAS BUT CAN'T SPELL THE WORD.

Honestly the guy's a total ass and if he wears a hat you should knock it off his head or something. >__>

So on the crappy news was that during my 5 hour ride from DC this guy took the seat next to me when the bus stopped at Philadelphia.  I fell asleep and the guy BEHIND me stuck his hands through the gaps in the seat to touch my face while the guy behind me (who had fallen asleep) won't take his hand off my leg.  I spent the rest of the ride beating his hand with the brick hidden in my bag and using it to brush his hand off. But he didn't stop trying until he woke up and quickly changed his seat.

I hope I broke a few fingers. Perverts.

men can be stupid... wanting boobs and other stuff... if they don't have personal access to a set, they go searching.

one of my really close friends went through something like that, and my best friend and i told her she should evilly get back at him by doing stuff.

If I was in NE, I would come over, give you a hug, make you a cup of tea and get you a pint of ice cream and then ill listen to what you have to say and help you out. Or I can just send my girlfriend to do the cookies, too

Thank you guys.

I'm getting so mad. I really want to punch someone. And it's not just this situation with my ex, it's the world. I'm so sick of everyone. People question why I'm so anti-social and angry? Because I hate everyone. It's like every other person I meet is a huge dick and couldn't care less about how ANYONE feels. The other day someone made fun of me big time in a thread and someone actually defended me. It was shocking. I sent the person a PM saying thank you and of course didn't receive a reply.

I don't see why it's so fucking hard to give a shit about others. My birthday is Sunday, my friends will probably get me some 5 dollar shit they picked up at the store. Is it really that hard to put some thought into this shit? I don't even care if I get any materials, I want messages saying I'm appreciated and loved, and I just want a hug. That'd mean a lot. But will I get that? I really fucking doubt it.

I guess it's like I told my mom when she was telling me about this mean girl at work 'People are assholes and they're never going to appreciate you'. The sad part is, I believe that, with all my heart.

I just wish I could meet more people like you guys. Ones that actually care. Ones that actually take more than 2 seconds to think of something. Ones that actually comfort each other when they're down. People like you guys are rare. So I'm taking this chance to say... thank you for caring.

Seriously, you guys mean a lot to me.

Thank you for being there for me. Just know I appreciate all of you. Even if we rarely talk.

And you mean a lot to us too (at least you do to me.)
I agree with what you and your mother said. I've never really felt appreciated by IRL people, except for maybe one friend.
Also NSM peeps are awsm. That's why we need an IRL meeting! =D

On another note:
FU YOU 'TARD. There's a guy at school that didn't do his paper and he told the teacher he was depressive. THE TEACHER SAID IT WAS OKAY FOR HIM NOT TO DO THE PAPER AT ALL. ALSO HE'S NOT EVEN DEPRESSIVE. HE JUST WANTS ATTENTION.

I don't see why it's so fucking hard to give a shit about others. My birthday is Sunday, my friends will probably get me some 5 dollar shit they picked up at the store. Is it really that hard to put some thought into this shit? I don't even care if I get any materials, I want messages saying I'm appreciated and loved, and I just want a hug. That'd mean a lot. But will I get that? I really fucking doubt it.

I guess it's like I told my mom when she was telling me about this mean girl at work 'People are assholes and they're never going to appreciate you'. The sad part is, I believe that, with all my heart.

I just wish I could meet more people like you guys. Ones that actually care. Ones that actually take more than 2 seconds to think of something. Ones that actually comfort each other when they're down. People like you guys are rare. So I'm taking this chance to say... thank you for caring.

Seriously, you guys mean a lot to me.

Thank you for being there for me. Just know I appreciate all of you. Even if we rarely talk.
I think ETF speaks for all of us when she says this. People jerks but you find someone who actually gives a damn about you every once in awhile. And those are the people you've got to hang on to. Like all of you guys(or most of you anyways ;)). And I hope your birthday turns out better than you expect, ETF. Set low standards and you'll always be amazed. ;D

The thing I think us teenagers fear most is having the boring, mundane lives we seeing our parents living. And unfortunately, most teenagers fall into the same hole. But a few manage to actually make their lives worth while by doing what they love and not caring what anyone thinks. And I hope you all fall into that small percentage. Unless boring and mundane is your kind of thing, I won't judge.

Because money doesn't matter. My dad makes a pretty penny and he's miserable. I'd rather be making a dollar a month than that, as long as I'm attempting to make my dreams a reality. Better than just dreaming and never acting on those dreams.

That's pretty much all I've got to rant about right now.

Sooo, I found a... 4th grade classmate on facebook recently... and it was disturbing.

Back in 4th grade, this guy would pick his nose in public, pick up bandaids from the floor and stick them on people... or himself. No one really liked him.

He has over 3500 friends on facebook now, but he's gotten worse... He attempts fake tattoos of crosses, F's, and weird symbols along his arms & face with permanent marker, his idol's Lil' Wayne, he raps... horribly at that. But yet, this fake attitude is what gets him his fame... or infamy :P There was also a recent poll that said "Which school is the worst in my district?" And one of the answers was "whichever school he goes to" and it ended up getting over 60 votes, lol.

Ah, loss of innocence sucks.

EDIT: Poll count jumped to 193 :P

I like to keep my facebook friends at a minimum. If I haven't had some sort of communication with that person for a long time (like 3 years), they get axed.

You can tell someone is fake/a celebrity if they have a large amount of people as their friends on facebook. i have yet to meet someone who is legitimately "friends" with people on facebook and not necessarily someone you met once

I'm sorry to hear that ETF. But I have to say that regardless of whether we've met IRL or not, everyone here means as much (or more) to me as my local friends. Even if high school is what you're dealing with now, I promise that when it ends, you'll have few memories of it (taking a test, a class demonstration gone awry, prom...etc) because everything else is going to be more meaningful to you later on, like the friends that actually care about you! It's been only a few years and I haven't even seen the mean girls that made my classes miserable who declare they're going to be models or have awesome boyfriends, managed to lose my yearbook and couldn't care less. Meanwhile everyone else can keep being the same assholes they are and would never meet people like you guys. Seriously. And yeah, it sounds cheesy but it's true.

On a side note, I just wish I'd found you all sooner. :D

And by the way, the time it took for me to write this post took longer than a trip to the local trinket store to get a $5-something. ;)

You should focus on the people you look up to, and hold on to them to get you through the years. If you're in high school, the way you get through it can determine who you become for the years after. Grow in the light and likeness of who you consider with your heart to be your superiors, and become close to those who allow you to grow up into who you desire to be. That'll bring you happiness.

The rest of the majority of complaints I've seen in this thread strike me as insignificant teen angst over growing up and realizing the world we live in. You're going to deal with a lot of bs in your life, but holding on to the things that are dear to you makes all of the trials worthwhile and the happiness long lasting.

I loathe my situation... how come I can't have the same level of affluence of my friends back in high school.

I realized there are only two things that get me really depressed:
1) Money
2) Women

Otherwise, you gotta make me feel bad about other things. Now to look around at everything... ugh.

Yeah, but insulting her in public...? There's a huge difference between fighting with them and telling her/people she's retarded.
Also the retarded guy I talked about earlier (the attention whore) just told me his mom's stupid. He was hurt/was feeling sick (me no remember) so she told him to go see a doctor. He said she was a moron because he "lost precious time of my life because I had to wait to see the doctor".
WTF YOU COMPLAIN THAT NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU AND WHEN SOMEONE DOES, YOU TELL EVERYONE THAT PERSON'S STUPID?!

I know the feeling. My bunk beds were really pissing me off about a month ago so I took the top one off by myself at midnight. My anger gave me the strength.

But anyways... I can currently only count 4 friends I can truly rely on and trust. Hopefully my new friends which are replacing old, shitty friends can raise that number.

Well, it was kinda my mistake. We were playing rygby, and I was pulling him away from the cluster gathered around the ball. He lost his balance, had to change footing, and hit my toe with his heel. About one-third of our troop got some kind of injury during the rugby session. Our second lieutenant doesn't seem to take the hint, though, as jogging is scheduled on Thursday...

US schools are really dumb.  We have a terrible education system when we're compared with places such as Europe and Australia as far as I'm aware.

But as for cutting funds on prisons.  We sort of need that money so the 'scum of the Earth' don't escape and go on a crime spree.  Not to mention, with crime rates going up, we're sort of running out of space (As in jails) to put criminals in, so I would have to say the amount of money being given to prison places and the like is rather justified.

Though, people usually do become criminals because of improper schooling, and educating the youth of our country should be one of the primary things we do, so yes, I concur, we seriously need to improve on our education system.  And not just economically either.

Thats what one of my papers are about -- basically how in 10-15 years China and India will surpass us in almost every field because if internal drives of for-profit scores, an intrinsic drive to success... they see education as a way out of poverty, so theyre driven. With us, its compulsory, and we just go through the motions, memorizing and faking everything, etc... that is the case for the majority.

Ill publish it here when its completed, but I am arguing that America has lost its competitive edge and we need to return by reforming US Education to a more global outlook and doing away with Standardized Testing -- meaning to man up, that we acknowledge that there is a technological race and American needs to beef up its Science and Math edge -- as well as the technological edge (meaning Computer Sci classes etc... in high school) and lastly stating scare tactics and other sources to globalization of American education through personal sources and a movie we watched... etc.

Yep.... and through world history, China has ALWAYS been the successful country... until the British Industrialized and Americans surpassed them.

Quote from: SuperFireKirby on April 29, 2011, 04:47:53 PMOR we revert to old Muslim law and just cut off your extremities for committing crimes. I can guarantee crimes rates would go down and there would be less criminals in jail. Two birds with one stone.
Trust me, Europe and the USA were just as bad.  The only reason Muslim countries are stereotyped to have these sort of laws is because of Iraq and a few other countries, along with a bunch of propaganda.  In all actuality, most Muslim countries aren't very devout at all and if they used to be, it quickly ended once the USA and a few other European powers forced them to have a democracy.
But anyways, it didn't work out well in history, because people started murdering each other to stop others from murdering each other.  Quite ironic if I do say so myself.

Quote from: drpamplemousse on April 29, 2011, 05:03:32 PMYep.... and through world history, China has ALWAYS been the successful country... until the British Industrialized and Americans surpassed them. Back in the 1500s, China was so self sufficient, they didn't want to trade with anyone who didn't prove as a useful resource, until the Ming and the Qing needed silver and Spain had a large surplus from conquering the new world... etc...
My favourite historical event in China is probably when Kublai Khan finally conquers China; something which if I'm correct, was never accomplished before; started a Golden Age, and then was usurped from power so China could eat the fruits of his labour.  That was so pro.
But anyways, China's downfall was that they became ethnocentric.  Their feelings of extreme nationalism and superiority ultimately led to their downfall.  And considering they barely advanced in technology during the Opium War, it's a bit difficult to say whether they stayed a major power during their seclusion, even after the world had industrialized.

Absolutely. Theocracies in the Middle East are struggling to hold power as majorities in countries are beginning to become more progressive. It is sad to say that over 1000 years ago, it was the center of science/math/philosophy/education... etc... Harun al-Rashid led the Abbasid Caliphate to intellectual prosperity... and now Baghdad is kind of a shithole from Saddam and a little bit from our existence there. I was at the Saudi Arabian embassy in Washington about 4 years ago and they gave us a presentation where they showed us how progressive their country is becoming, leaving the Islamic Puritanical regime that existed there when it was founded.

It was Kublai Khan that conquered the northern Song dynasty (and eventually took over all of China) -- the Mongols did have the largest empire in the world to date... it is kind of amazing (though it spread plague and stuff). Even before in the Han and Sui and even the beginning of the Song dynasty, we can see China in the top 3 with an Arabian Empire and small African and West Asian Empires (like India at some points in history). But if we look at the course of history, China has always been on the top, whereas the US just exponentially grew up after rapid industrialization and a surge of immigrants during the 19th century. Granted China has been broken up by internal problems, by the Mongols, by the British, by the Japanese, but they always came back strong. I know China will get on top again, but the question everyone is asking, once a massive economic shift happens, what will the US need to do to get on top.

(If this came up before the winter I wouldn't be able to answer this at all -- thanks HIST 222!)

China wasn't really "on top", they were just isolated enough due to location to avoid a great deal of outside influence for a very, very long period of time.  And then once they had problems they just built a hugeass wall and continued to go about their business.  They didn't have the big shifts of power like the Roman or Arabic conquering and collapses.

The problem with China is the long-term effects of the single-child policy. In a family where this has been followed suit (though this is unusual, since couples who both were lone children are allowed to have two kids), the child will be spoiled by his parents and four grandparents. As the standard of living rises, and life expectancy grows, it's very possible that some of the grandparents will still be alive when the kid's parents retire. Then this kid will have to take care of both his parents and up to four grandparents, plus his own child. The government won't be as helpful either, since the problem is too large to be taken care of by them.

Also, too many men compared to women, as well as continous oppression from the regime. I think China's growth will be hampered somewhat, but it will still grow past the US this decade.

India, however... I say watch out. Less government cencorship, democracy and respect for human rights means that India is regarded as a "cleaner" alternative to China when it comes to investment, seen from a Western point of view. The man in the street with a good idea is also allowed to push this idea forward and benefit from it, instead of in China where the government would take the money and bring the man to silence.

Well, it's the truth. It is unfortunate that our great country is falling, but it was inevitable from the start....

I am going on business trips to China as a part of beginning graduate work for analyzing the international supply chain and working with global firms. Hopefully we'll (our class) will get a global outlook and hopefully prepare for the public/private sector otherwise. We'll probably go to India in 2013, but that's how everything is working out.

China just has a faster economic growth rate compared to ours... and American businesses are all about spending the least, its kind of what we do as Americans... what can we do as a corporation to make more money, and since taxes are significantly cheaper for corporations in China (around 12-15%) from the US (35%-40%) and not to mention cheap labor, cheap materials and everything, they capitalize on those investments.

The major talk between GOP 2012 candidates is going to be this China issue... they want to return the jobs to the US (probably offering corporate incentives) and focusing on an economic outlook rather than the current administrations social outlook with healthcare and education and other things.

^I think it also has something to do with the fact that the Chinese one-party system is undeniably more efficient than the US two-party mess.

Let's face it, US governments only plan four years at a time. During these four years, the other party will do whatever they can to hinder everything, just for the sake of preventing them from doing anything. Health care reform? Massive protests and propaganda. Extra tax to encourage greener industry? Massive lobbyism. Cutting down on Israeli support? People in the streets carrying swastikas and shouting. While one party is in power, the other will go to extremes to try to make them step down. Also the fact that democratic elections are nothing more than popularity contests, which leads to a lot of poo-flinging between parties during the election year.

In China, however, the government can plan for decades to come. They have a system ready, knows how it works, and nobody tries to stop them, if, say, they put three cities and two million people's homes under water to build a power plant, or move a city or two to make a military base. The power plant gets built without too much paperwork and protests, and produces power today, while in the US, if they had started a similiar project at the same time, would hardly have decided on the location by now. It also helps that China's external debt is about 4% of its GDP, as opposed to the US' 97%, much of which is owed to China.

Though, the Chinese are painting themselves into a corner, and will feel the consequences in not too long. We'll have to wait and see.

Yep. We have the mess of just attacking someone because they're democrat or republican.. it is totally a partisan war. China is totally capitalizing from the internal squabbles that happen on the congressional floor. The whole nuclear thing is totally a reality. One of the plants closest here is the oldest operating plant in California and there is a need to build one in either Ventura/Santa Barbara/Monterrey counties to power the entire central coast apart from Diablo Canyon. It will probably take 20 years.

I remain interested in American politics to see what direction the country is planning on working for in the next 4 years. What Obama should have focused on was China, the massive debt (that he helped contribute to). He has been digging a massive financial hole into the future, meaning I'll (and other US citizens my age) will be paying off his mistakes. Basically the 2012-2016 presidency (if it isn't Obama) will be fixing his mistakes and setting forth a motion that may put us on a 10-15 year path to get us out of debt, even if that decreases entitlements and decreasing our dependency on China. It won't look pretty for that time, but it will enable us to survive. Don't get me wrong here, Obama himself is a nice guy, probably really great to have a conversation that isn't about politics with... maybe a nice discussion on law or history or other fun things... perhaps video games, I don't know, but he has been driving this country south with Obamacare and education stuff (and I am grateful for education... thank you for dumping student loans on me).

What the US needs to do is get out of debt, pay off China, and then once we have this thing called a surplus (something that will now be nonexistent for the US in the near future if Obama stays elected) we can use it to restore entitlements and perhaps make an effort to actually spend money that WE HAVE. maybe perhaps lowering the debt ceiling.  we shall see what happens...

The only good thing about one-party systems is that things get done and if you disagree with the party, you're pretty much screwed, so that may not necessarily be a great thing. America will probably never become a 1 party state because of our foundations... unless some political douchebag just captivates everyone and takes over and etc... usual internal coup and stuff.

Because if we elect somebody that is not Obama they are guaranteed to magically remove $14t in debt.
Also, only the latest president has ever made any mistakes and whoever comes next will always fix said mistakes and be 20x more better and totally not have problems ever.  This is a fact that can be verified through all past changes in presidencies.

The reason why Obama isn't doing a wonderful job is because he is learning as he's going on the job... never really having experience in the private sector. If other democrats were in charge like Hillary and others, they would know what to do (because she can ask Bill for advice -- but that would be a dead end)...

I really don't want to take a side to keep this neutral, but some GOP'ers are just better for the job cause they're part of the private sector and they can form a symbiotic relationship between the two.

The 14+ trillion debt won't poof into nothing over the next four years, but there are some steps that can be taken.

Watch "On the Record" for a week and then come back to me with your view on Obama... and also the next person in office will not fix everything ever... nothing is ever going to happen if a GOP'er or a Dem is in office... there needs to be bipartisanship to get the country back on track.

So I thought I would be allowed to leave early because I couldn't have my feet in the sun without feeling pain. And I could put my shoes on for the same resan. So I end up unloading and cleaning gear on an extremely hot black top pavement with the sun beating sown. So both sides of my feet were scorching.

Quote from: Roz~ on May 08, 2011, 08:45:58 AMA customer brings 20$ with her to buy stuff. She runs through the store and picks up everything she sees. She wants to buy for 80$ worth of groceries. She then spends ~30 minutes wondering what the hell will she buy. And when she's done I have to put everything back in the shelves, because in the end she didn't buy anything. SHE ALWAYS DOES THAT.  FFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Yeah! i hate when they have a huge basket and say "Stop me when u get to $20!" how about bringing sufficient funds? or perhaps not, as u said, picking up everything u see? ugh.
another story:
ok so im on an express lane and this person has 2 six packs of beer and also requires cigarettes. their total was roughly $30. after trying his WIC card AND food stamp card(both of which i had already told him would work on neither tobacco nor alcohol) he pulls out a wad of cash and pays with a $100 bill. really?

Quote from: Ruto on May 08, 2011, 09:34:51 AMYep. So far I have mostly Domo toys and Gloomy Bear figurines because my sisters like them. And about 600 photos. It seems I don't shop very much alone.

Also my cousins are the worst-behaved kids I've ever seen in my life. The older one's on the computer nonstop and the younger one (who is 7) can't do his homework without throwing a fit, saying he's busy, doesn't "know" my relatives that tell him to behave and do his homework, wishes people dead, threatens to throw people out on the street because he doesn't want them, and constantly tries to hop on a computer and phone to mindlessly play games for hours on end. Thing he, he repeats what I've heard my aunt say to him >__>  And says things sometimes in such a casual manner like a psychopath.  

Sounds like one of those starved for attention types. She'd talk 'til your ears bleed if she could... =__=

That's why I f*****g hate those kids. >:(

So my parents think I may be showing signs of an eating disorder. WTF. XD XD XD

What really happens is that I am occasionally too lazy to make myself lunch. It's only happened like three times though, and my mom is yelling at me for not eating ever, saying that I go without lunch at school all the time, which has only happened once because I was out of lunch money. wtf.

FUCK MY TEAMMATE. She said she finished her part of the paper, and when she sent it to me, I had the pleasure of discovering how little she had worked on it. Half of the stuff she had to write about is complete bullshit. As for the other half, she started writing her stuff but didn't even finished it. ROZISGOINGTOPUNCHMORETHANJUSTONEBABY

Perfect, my best friend of 5 years suddenly "doesn't have anything in common with me anymore".  He said the same about his other best friend of 10 years, who is also my best friend.  He also said the same of his brother, who is also one of my best friends and his I guess as well.

Why?  Because a fucking fat Brazilian exchange student came to live with him and he fell in love with her.  So he rejects everyone but her.

So fuck.  I'm pissed.  Never actually been hurt by a person.

no, i tried to open up another file that apparently was in 2011 on my 2010 printmusic. after saying "incompatible file" i closed the whole program; BUT I ALREADY SAVED so things were seemingly ok. then it asks "Save changes to document?"-i hit enter without thinking. it replaces my .mus file with some bullshit file that wont open. am i pissed? u bet...

EDIT: and now the file is gone all together. great...

If you say it's photoshopped, I'll laugh at you. 

Also, so far, I've gleaned from my experience that nowadays people call others a troll if they disagree about something.

Also, if you say I go to retard school or retard classes,

http://www.greatschools.org/ohio/brunswick/206-Edwards-Middle-School/

and I'm in the honors/excel classes. In seventh grade taking geometry. Oh and my IQ is over 140.  When I was in 4th grade it was 136, and last year I took it and got 142, it should be like 144 or something right now. 

If you say I'm showing off, it's basically my response to your insults.

Doing well in inter-web social communities doesn't mean you are intelligent. 

Also, I play piano much better than you. 

My life doesn't suck at all.  It is currently very enjoyable.

Not really surprised about your math scores, considering you are asian.

And if your life doesn't suck, why are you even in this thread?

And if your life doesn't suck, why are you even in this thread?
Intelligence, age, and math/reading scores are intertwined.  I scored above 10th grade advanced expectations in both areas. 

It depends on how you use idiot. 

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/idiot

If you use the first definition, a mentally retarded person (in its formal definition) would be very unlikely to score high in a mathematical test.  Near impossible.  If you use the second definition, yes, intelligent people can be fools sometimes, like me, and also how you use stupid. 

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stupid?show=0&t=1307381862

If you were to call me stupid, you would be meaning definition 1b, because actions are also based on experience, which I don't have much of since I've only existed for a decade and a fifth. 

I am in this thread because I'm replying to another person's post, and the person's post was in this topic.  Also, since my life not sucking is still about whether my life sucks or not, it is on-topic.

A troll isn't defined by someone who disagrees with another person's opinion; it's defined by someone who shows disrespect for another person's opinion without regard to what their reactions might be, e.g. you saying "gtfo gays".

Lololol what. No. You're one of those kids who is forced by your parents and they make sure you overachieve and are so much better than anyone and blah blah blah. I don't care what you say, you started playing piano because of your parents. Which is not always a bad thing, but winning isn't everything, contrary to popular Asian belief.

You are a robot. You might enjoy it, but you are essentially a robot. No emotion attached to school or music. Being a robot does not make you intelligent, or likable. It sometimes makes you successful but it's not worth it. The reason I play piano? It's my passion. So therefore, skill level aside (which I also pwn you in in my opinion), I believe I play the piano about fifty times better than you, give or take. Probably give.

Also, Saria's not intelligent because she "does well in inter-web social communities." She's mature and very bright. Not to mention she can take a joke.

There, I refuse to feed the troll any further. I am just not about to sit here and allow myself and my wife to be insulted.

It sometimes makes you successful but it's not worth it. The reason I play piano? It's my passion. So therefore, skill level aside (which I also pwn you in in my opinion), I believe I play the piano about fifty times better than you, give or take. Probably give.

Also, Saria's not intelligent because she "does well in inter-web social communities." She's mature and very bright. Not to mention she can take a joke.

There, I refuse to feed the troll any further. I am just not about to sit here and allow myself and my wife to be insulted.

You're awsm. Just saying.

If you're going to use test scores and website reviews as your ultimate defense against us, I guess I'll have to completely undermine that just to prove to you how trivial they are.

I just graduated from a high-school with the exact same rating as your place on this "great schools.org".

Omg I can link websites too (http://www.greatschools.org/pennsylvania/north-huntingdon/1771-Norwin-Senior-High-School/)

As for classes, nearly a full schedule of AP and actual college classes. Oh no somebody else who can get into higher classes because everyone else is just stupid. No wait, my IQ is over 160. Nevermind.

Also I'd consider 'doing well in inter-web social communites' a bit more important than brains. It just proves to me that even on the internet, I can function as a person with social skills and totally not screw myself over with every single word that I say.

As for 'I play piano much better than you', oh no somebody's ability to press a button and have sound come out of it is greater than mine! BIG DEAL. I don't even play the damn thing. I can press keys and form simple songs. Because its not hard to do.

Though admittedly, I will be playing something with a little more technical skill for a professional orchestra my freshman year of college. Not because I think myself better or superior because of it, but because I love it, it makes me happy, and I'm lucky enough to be able to make a living off of it.

Oh there's also that other thing that I taught myself, and I can speak to near fluency.

Pika: Endless happiness, ditziness and complete cluelessness. xD

Overall RAYMOND WINS AWARD FOR MOST ANNOYING

Guys, I think I've found an Asian dumber than Raymond.... (I don't believe Raymond is dumb, though, he lack common sense. Which most people who get good grades don't have, I've seen).

But this Asian is actually fucking stupid. Roz knows who I'm talking about. And he fits the below definition perfectly.

Quote from: Jub3r7 on June 06, 2011, 11:10:38 AMA troll isn't defined by someone who disagrees with another person's opinion; it's defined by someone who shows disrespect for another person's opinion without regard to what their reactions might be, e.g. you saying "gtfo gays".
I'm and admin for a faecbook study group, and this bitch wants to start spamming posts and comments all over the place. We tell him to stop, and he doesn't take us seriously, so we ban him for 3 days.

Now he thinks he's cool for "successfully trolling" and shit... next he wants to say "ban my girlfriend. go ahead, do it."  And when I explain something else, he tells me not to talk to her again, even though I consider her like a sister -__- and he says "Idc if I'm at a funeral, I'll still troll everyone's asses".

This guy doesn't deserve respect.

@Raymond
So if Hugo says something about you, you'd start insulting Saria? Excellent logic.

I don't have to give any details about Saria's accomplishments. That would just keep feeding the troll >__>

I can go on forever about how Saria is better than you but I'll reduce it to a wall of text and about 3 things. First of all, she's never had any piano lessons and taught herself when she was 9. She played and arranged songs when she was 8 and this organist says she has perfect pitch since she can just name the notes he was playing. That's in addition to being in HER honors class in school and kicking everyone's ass at fitness despite being a lightweight. Blah blah blah blah blah bloo, may mi my moo, may moo my may, may---oh snap. I sound like some stereotypical AZN parent pushing their kids to compensate for their own failed dreams of glory.  Yo quiero Taco Bell.  Ted Koppel is a robot and the fat sis should stop watching TV and eating everything in the fridge. There's nothing on Earth like a genuine, bona fide, electrified six-car monorail. What'd I say? Monorail. Did I also mention how cute Saria is? And how I lol'd when Ray admitted he's watched porn while Ruto the yaoi obsessed NSM nerd hasn't? Blah blah blah blah bloop. If you are reading this, you have no life Raymondbl. Just sayin'.

Only idiots can say that. Jesus even rejected Old Testament Law for all you hardcore Christians, and never spoke out against homosexuality in anyway. So under Christian law, you cannot say someone is going to hell because they are gay.

She also yelled at me for not washing the dishes and cooking dinner -__-

At least today she didn't criticize me about magically showing up with a boyfriend/fiancee though.

Quote from: Ruto on June 11, 2011, 10:18:29 PMI just realized that today, (or yesterday in this time zone) my mom left really early in the morning for the casino and told me to look after my dad and Saria for the entire day, then threw in extra clothes for me to wash (by hand) when she came home. She also yelled at me for not washing the dishes and cooking dinner -__-

At least today she didn't criticize me about magically showing up with a boyfriend/fiancee though.
I did teh dishes. >:3 And stop complaining about mom and dad. YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE SUFFERING. They want me to buy my own stuff and treat them to a restaurant. I DON'T GET AN ALLOWANCE EVERY FUCKING DAY. I'm sick of being so nice. Imma follow ETF's advice: Tired of being nice? LEARN TO BE A JERK. >:(

I'm ok with buying my own stuff, but treat them to a restaurant wtf what's the point of an allowance if they don't let you spend it how you want.  I have no allowance at all :(

 Whatever you do, don't be a jerk. It'll pay off.

Am I a jerk?

SO APPARENTLY THE FREAKING SMF POLL HATES ME.

e: Online class orientation so I can have extra classes next year.

QuoteIf a student's final exam grade is twenty-five (25) or more percentage points lower than his/her test average for the semester, the County Online Campus may require the student to take a cumulative assessment in a proctored setting to ensure the student's mastery of the course material. The grade on this cumulative assessment must fall within twenty-five (25) percentage points of the student's original test average. If the student's score is twenty-five (25) percentage points lower than the original test average, then the cumulative assessment grade will replace all assessment grades (test, quizzes, etc…), and the student will be dropped from the class at the discretion of the administration.

Know why 50% of all marriages en in divorce? Because nowadays there are less marriages since people can now have children without being married; that's why it feels like more people are getting divorced.

Yeah I feel a lot better today.  Really messed me up last night though.

Didn't hang out with her though...oooh well....it would just be too awkward, don't need another horrible girl situation where the entire time I'm about how the hell I'm going to get rid of them.

She had really nice tits though.  Too bad.

I am the completely wrong person to handle the situation.  That was evidenced by my total failure on skype.  I can't imagine how awful it would have been in person.

Really. Despite me doing drugs and stuff, I do not associate with drug crowds.  I stay the fuck away.  I have my friends, my crowd or whatever where not much bullshit occurs except for a certain Brazilian exchange student /fucking/ things up for a while.  I can't handle shit like that at all! 

Now if my friend was raped, that is another story.  Someone that is a total stranger well...shit.

So today one of my friends asked me if we could hang out today. I didn't really have anything to do so I said sure, but I work at 5 pm. Her idea of hanging out with me? Eating pretty much every single thing she could find in my fridge, basically food that my mom pays for, but she didn't give a fuck, and also watching vids on MY laptop for 5-6 hours straight. WTF. She didn't even listen to me when I told her to gtfo. And when she left, she told me something like "Yeah well next time we hang out we should do something more productive than watch vids on Youtube." FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Yesterday, there was little to do at work, cause I got soo much stuff done the days before. It seriously was boring, because the previous principal left (the one that was there since the school opened in 2003) and so many people took the day off for a 4 day weekend. So I just sat there and did nothing and ate a half of a pizza for lunch -- luckily for me, my boss let me go at 2 rather than 4

If he's hoping to give you immunity to it, ha ha ha no. Influenza is a virus that mutates very, very rapidly and being exposed to one single strain won't necessarily protect you against all the others. That's why they have to roll out new flu shots every year, and even those vaccines take a sort of shotgun approach by including three different strains of the flu that researchers believe will be the most prevalent that year.

^mmd, and that's not just me sucking up to Saria ;)

Also I hate that. Being known for something that you never do but somehow you always do even though other people are responsible.

So anyway, my brother asks me to come swimming with me yesterday really loud in front of my parents because I never come since our pool is horrible and usually overcrowded and he knows my dad is always telling me to go. So basically ends up with my dad forcing me to go to get some "fresh air" on a day that's 90°F in the shade. So fine, I go swimming, whatever. When I get to work at 4:00 I realize my contact lenses really hurt my eyes and I can't see right, probably from the poolwater. They hurt my eyes so bad I finally just throw them away. I am REALLY nearsighted so I have to spend the night taking orders with my face leaned in two inches from the computer screen and people asking me if I have a problem. So when we finally leave for home, I tell my mom what happened and she's all like, "oh lol you needed new ones, I set some out for you but forgot to tell you, isn't that funny"

Of course as far as swimming goes that's better than what normally happens, which is he keeps asking me over and over until I finally shout that I don't want to go. And then he makes me look like a complete dick to my parents for not wanting to go swim in a crappy pool. Urrgh these are the reasons I wish for school again.

Once again my family disregards the fact that I have a fucking job.  I told my mom days ago I work at 9am tomorrow.  Yet, everyone fucking neglects to tell me that no one will be home tomorrow since my brother takes the car every single weekend being the giant fucking troll he is, and the rest is leaving with the other car at some ridiculous time in the morning (which makes this even more awful, since I work at 9am..on a sunday..which should be a guarantee that I have a damn car).

So, no way to work.  Thanks.  Fucking family.

Only option is to get up way earlier and walk the distance there...sigh...which takes an hour...ugh...then 8.5 hours of work.......sigh.

oooh well...leaving for Europe wednesday.  Hopefully my plane explodes on the way home.

If I lost my phone, I would have to carry around my computer for emails, my appointment book for my daily calendars, my iPod for music, my camera for taking photos, my address book for all my contacts and their respective phone numbers and my DS for video games.

Meaning my phone can hold all the stuff I use daily, so my world will get some heavy things if my phone dies.

I want my own place!

Lived in my own apartment for a year, then forced back home for a month while waiting for my service to begin. Then a year at the garrison, sharing a room with 8 other guys or so. And now when I'm done with the service I'm stuck back home for at least two months, maybe more, because I can't get a new apartment back at the university.

I WANT SOME GODDAMN PRIVACY

That's all.

Found out my mom has 3 misplaced discs in her vertebrae which is probably the cause to the pain in her arm that has gone so far to make her cry. The misplaced discs probably came from her sclerosis. My sister's a little bit at risk at getting it to, but idc about that. I care that my mom could be put in a wheelchair for the remainder of her life instead of being able to walk/enjoy her life freely afterwards.

Yah trying to know all the cool AZNS in high school would have been a waste of time. Sure, I get a lot of facebook photos saying how awsm their parties and barbecues were but at least I didn't have to end up working some embarrassing job selling clothes and cosmetics to other similar teens. It's not like knowing them could help me get a real job somewhere worthwhile. Or have a place to stay when I visit someplace (because they're not going to be anywhere else but NYC) :P

My school only had 1000 or so students, so a lot of us knew each other.

Once I was a senior, all the kids in band, some of the sports teams and in class looked up to some of us seniors and juniors, the amazing ones who did AP Physics homework in Religion and playing Pokémon in AP Physics.

So, we're the exception. Everyone at my school was popular.

Terrible idea.The amount of times I had to say/think "This s*** was published?" gave me a splitting headache. I didn't know it would reading a watered down commentary on Twilight spawn could be self-harm. Bloody hell.

That's too bad :( I wish people weren't so selfish...

Everything is making me sad today. I'm not getting enjoyment out of anything. Books, TV, video games, Pokemon, writing, playing piano, even my irl "friends". And I keep realizing the most random horrible things about myself. I'm starting to realize that no matter who might like me on the internet, I'm really just a pathetic, cruel little creep who can't win and doesn't deserve to. I want to go to sleep and never wake up. I've never felt like this before.

I still have horrible writer's block. I have four ideas planned out, and they're just going nowhere. I can't even think of how to start them. My brain will form ideas while I'm trying to sleep, and then lose them the second I open up word. Brain, come on, you know how to write. I want to write so badly - other than RPing. And I can't push out these fic ideas and it's bugging me so much. I tell the ideas to people, and it still won't do shit. >_< I just wanna write! One of them, at least!

And I know this is a small issue but I've had writer's block for a while now :C And it's upsetting me I can't get rid of it!

I don't buy anything from itunes unless I feel it's worth paying for. I've bought like two things in the last year, the two parts of the harry potter soundtrack. Any other music I really like isn't available anywhere to pay money for (like game music) so I use ostproject or something similar.

So this morning was the worst morning I've ever had. This morning I was working because some girl is on vacation this week, so meh. And then this  bitch treated me like crap, as if I'd never worked in my whole life.  Also my boss told me that when I was working Monday, someone rented a movie but didn't pay for it. I told her wtf, I remember her and she did pay for that movie. She said well if you can't prove it you're going to pay for it. I wanted to tell those 2 to go fuck themselves since they're annoying pricks, but I need that job. .______.

My mom decides to lecture me about doing work around the house. And today, we were cleaning while we can before school starts and my mom starts working 2 jobs. 'Twas fun and stuff, I helped my dad bring a treadmill downstairs and outside, when he cut his finger, I got a band-aid, neosporin, etc, I vacuumed a few rooms, cleaned up the hundreds of pages of sheet music I left on the couch, etc. I think I did an alright job. So then later, I start practicing piano and my parents and sister resume cleaning the room around me. Note- I've been asking all day how I could help them. So, once they're done and I'm done practicing, I go to the computer... where my bitchy sister decides to just start annoying me with "You haven't helped at all, you should've helped instead of sleeping all day" and this is while I'm trying to catch up on the stuff I usually check in the morning and while I'm making sheet music. And then she leaves while leaving a hit on the back of my head.

I fucking hate my sister, she's fucking annoying, and she's only slowing me down in life. She's the main reason my grades were so low during freshman year.

I hate her. I hate her. I fucking hate her.

As far as being nice, it works, but you need to figure out who really deserves it.

Ugh I hate my sister. She's four years older than me and she is so mature in a bad way. Like she's so mature that she nags. Like a/my mother. So while my parents are at work instead of having a lazy older sister who couldn't care less what I did just as I stayed away from the Tim Tams I have to put up with "What are you doing?" and "Put your plates and cups in the dishwasher!" and "Do your practise!" (OK that one's not so bad). Ugh it's like having three parents that nag and argue and pull guilt trips.

2) Point out that she worked for Quest Diagnostics and ask her how much crap she's had to handle her whole career.

   Apparently, the financial aid office at the school I was planning on going to this semester told me the most I can get out of financial aid is ~$700, because of some 'corrections' that had to be made which affected my overall eligibility. My bill for just one semester is slightly over 10 grand. The most I can take out in a student loan for the whole two semesters is slightly over 5 grand.

   Oh, and Slow, don't let yourself sink too deep into this situation. Take it from someone who went down that path a little over a year ago with that same exact situation. Girls are easily deceptive towards guys who are genuinely interested in them and therefore easy to manipulate. Her having a boyfriend spells all sorts of doom for the outcome of the situation.

God I was so devastated when they started dating, I hated that kid so much. He's such a puny little obnixious attention seeking creep but she loves how "he can be really sweet" and "is really funny" and so forth. So yeah it kinda hurt when that happened especially after she flat out told me she would never date him...fkelwkjjfdisokchfueiospa bad memories

And then she keeps telling me how great it's going and it kills me to act happy...haha especially because she knows I really like her...I don't know why she insists on telling me about it sometimes when she knows I like her and am somewhat of the jealous type...haha she really likes to mess with my mind but yknow I never let on that it bothers me...

Quote from: SlowPokemon on August 04, 2011, 04:06:15 PMGod I was so devastated when they started dating, I hated that kid so much. He's such a puny little obnixious attention seeking creep but she loves how "he can be really sweet" and "is really funny" and so forth. So yeah it kinda hurt when that happened especially after she flat out told me she would never date him...fkelwkjjfdisokchfueiospa bad memories

And then she keeps telling me how great it's going and it kills me to act happy...haha especially because she knows I really like her...I don't know why she insists on telling me about it sometimes when she knows I like her and am somewhat of the jealous type...haha she really likes to mess with my mind but yknow I never let on that it bothers me...

Graaahh I'm sick of this crap...when is the angry at everything phase going to ennnnddd... D:
May I ask why you care so much if you have no interest in dating her(as of some post liek 3 months ago)? It just don't make no sense to me

I don't think she means to drive you crazy if she's your friend. Either she's making fun of you (in an odd way...) for never asking her out, or she's just not thinking and saying all these things about him to anyone who would listen. *cough* >__>

She probably only went on the date with him because he asked her and it was a bit awkward for her to refuse. Just sayin'. I'm not an expert at this, but it's just my two cents.

I like how my random decision to refer to the male interests of some of our female members as their "mann" has gone so far.

Also, such pains is why it's a good idea to just say "f u romance" and attempt to ignore it as something too messy to want to deal with!

That's perfectly legitimate, unless you're a frat boy or something.

If you try and "lower your standards", it would be like you're just trying to settle on someone for the sake of having someone, not because they're really the right person for you.

So there are no "too high" standards.

Know it wasn't you or Mashi. And I was just whining because someone had trolled me multiple times.
And the second time it kind of hurt, not that they cared, or even realized it.

I thought about getting it as soon as possible to get the gba games, since it's the only handheld I've missed completely.
But since it's so expensive in sweden (about 10$ more than in the US!), I'll wait

Quote from: spitllama on August 11, 2011, 07:04:04 PMTwo evenings of the week to work doesn't seem that bad.

Perhaps you missed which days they were. The days a normal teenager should be with his friends, or doing anything else. God I hate having to tell me friends no, I can't do that, my dad's making me work, over and over again. Eventually they're gonna stop asking me. And btw it's not just two days a week. Those are the only two definite days, basically it's friday and saturday plus whenever else he wants me to.

Quote from: Roz~ on August 11, 2011, 07:02:49 PM@ Slow ~> Yeah, it sucks because you're not paid, right? =/ I'm only paid 9.65$ /hour, which is the minimum wage here in Quebec. And I hate to cope with fucking morons... the people I work with are really awesome, but the customers... ugh I hate them.

Sometimes (barely ever) I'm paid half minimum wage ($7.25 an hour). I wish I could get a real job, working the same or less and getting some actual money for it.

Nope, because parents/relatives can do whatever they want, and it's not child labor since we both work in a family business.

Have you tried asking your dad and explaining why you wouldn't like to work on those two days?  Or perhaps you could just work one of those days and play with your friends on the other?  I'm sure he'll understand if you just asked him.  You could even bring a few of your friends over and try to convince him if he says otherwise.

Actually, in The US, people aged 20 and under can be remunerated less than what the minimum wage is, but only for their first 90 civil days on a job. I don't know a lot about American laws, but I'm pretty sure you're supposed to be paid 7,25$ if you've been working for more than 90 civil days.

And I agree with what Mashi said. You could just try to talk to him about not working on Friday/Saturday.

Our WiFi router is on el fritzo, so I have to plug in my laptop and make it a hotspot, and im working on getting everything up to snuff from getting back from vacation. There are not enough hours in the day.

On another note,
Federal Minimum wage is $5.25 and each state can choose to raise the Minimum wage level depending on the cost of living within the state. In California, minimum wage is $8.75 and going up to $9.35 in 2012.

2) I got yelled at by my mom because I didn't bring her the subway pass, making her spend $2.50. Then a lot of random exaggerations and insults, and I got called a liar because the trains worked fine for her? What...

3) I also realized that the odd smell in my room the past week wasn't from my neighbors smoking pot like they always did. It was a dead rat that somehow got into a shopping bag of stuff here. D: D: D:

That's was I/My Grandfather were doing.

In the part of Cumberland I was in, if you see a cop, there's gotta be something wrong... However the limits on the road was 80 km/h, and we probably went 110-120 or so... even on this detour that we had to take on a dirt road since a bridge is out... then once we got onto the TCH heading toward NB and PEI, we went an easy 140!

Out here in CA, the freeway moves either at 30 km/h or 130 km/h, it just depends on the time of day.

Okay so guys I'm sick of blaming myself all the time so now every month one (very lucky) person will be awarded with a "FUCK YOU"!
Even if it has nothing to do with you. So, don't feel bad. In fact, I hardly ever cuss at people, so you should feel special!

Okay, and our winner for the month of August is... *drumroll* ...slowpokemon!
It was decided by random.org, so don't feel bad. In fact, I wanted it to be shado. Sorry.

Soo... Fuck you, slow!  :D

Thanks Jub. Fuck you too.

K so apparently my friends decided last week that they'd go to Valcartier water park this Saturday. They left me out. I'm the only one who didn't know. The only reason I do know now is because one of my friends asked me if I was going. Oh and it's not the first time they do that.

Define your social awkwardness.  There are many factors that could be attributed to why you seem to be having these problems.  Perhaps you're just naturally taciturn, or perhaps you just can't seem to join in on a conversation, perhaps you're shy, etc.

Of course, whatever the reason, the answer is usually going to be "try to change yourself" or something along those lines.  Though, that won't always be necessary, so to say, but it usually is the most efficient.

^THIS

But anyway today was just so much easier, I think it's one of those things that seems stupider after you wake up. Joining this marching band thingy with the synthesizer part, or whatever, should probably at least help with my fear of...social...situations?...

Even though I've got no shot with her doesn't mean we can't be really good friends. Eventually I think the getting over her part will come by itself. There are other girls, who don't yet know how awkward I am. PLUS I'm not so sure I want to get into the whole dating thing yet...it seems really frivolous and like a lot of work.

Umm yeah so anyway I think you should all say out loud, "PLEASE, RYAN" after you read this, don't ask.

It IS a lot of work, and can be frivolous for the most part whilst in high school (sometimes other magical things can happen).

Just get into the relationship BEFORE she puts you in the friend zone (I tried to drum up something after that point... you have to save her life or something crazy [amazing] for her to actually have feelings that late in the relationship)

Love can occur to you at any part of your life, really.  Not to mention, how many relationships have ever been successful enough to survive until at least marriage by your age?  I'm not sure myself, but I would imagine that the number would be rather low.
I think that it would be better if you set your life up first, before you even consider falling in love.  People change and you'll probably change most now that you're getting ready to set out in life to be autonomous.

But nevertheless, I suppose it's fully possible that there's something about romantic love that I don't quite understand, so in the end, it's your choice, anyhow.

But the whole point of dating is to find what you love and hate in people. That way when you become interested in finding a partner forever, you know what to look for. That may sound like younger relationships are just "practice," but it's also important to realize the extent of feelings, get temptations to overcome, and care for someone intimately :)

Today has literally been the worst day at work. Everyone is on edge because everyone is gearing up for the upcoming school year a week from tuesday and everyone is basically sending me every which way to really get shit done and all that stuff. ugh. so much stuff...

And then when I finally speak my mind, I get a nice long lecture about insubordination and all the stuff (all I was trying to say is that I feel that I don't get all the info around here since this job is only "temporary" until I leave for school and not necessarily a job for the long run and all that related stuff). I'm totally happy I have it, however I just feel that some things I'm trying to do are impeded on and I just don't feel that everything's running right... they really don't understand. 

It seems like this day would never end (thank God it's the weekend coming up).

The school districts will never learn. Nearly everything they do doesn't make sense. Our whole system is a complete mess. Sorry about that DrP

Speaking of this, I also had an awful day at work today. Besides it being totally monotonous like every day, I got called an idiot by my manager behind my back for something I didn't even do. Apparently he wanted the pallet *there* instead of *here*, which Raul did, not me. Then the manager ranted about me doing it wrong, to another employee >:( SCREW YOU.

I can't sleep at night, so I usually go to bed between 4 am and 6 am, and wake up around noon. Today, my brother had an appointment at some random school. My parents told him to wake me up because I'd take him there. He freaking woke me up at 8 when I went to bed at around 5. I was working this afternoon. The appointment only lasted for 2 minutes. I tried to sleep when I got back home, but I just couldn't sleep. Ugh.
Hopefully university starts in ~2 weeks. I won't have to deal with my brother for a long while.

Luckily, due to sleep deprivation I had bad enough mood swings to the point where I was happy, then saw no one had sent me a text all day, got pissed and depressed, and started carving pictures into my bed frame. I must say, they are quite good though. :P

So all this summer I spent a lot of time preparing to start on an undergraduate research project with one of the professors in the biology department at my university. I was really looking forward to it and hoped that it would give me the added edge that I'd need to get a good spot in a graduate program somewhere next year.

Then I move back into the college, get everything unpacked, squared away, then open up my email to discover that my professor had gotten seriously ill over the summer and wasn't going to be able to sponsor any research projects this fall semester. She apologized and hoped that we could find another professor that would take us on instead.

Son. of. a. BITCH. Now I have to run around all the biology faculty, beg them to take me in on such short notice and figure out what I'm going to be doing, all within the space of about a week. And I have to get applications in for grad schools, visit grad schools, and worry about all my other classes and work at the same goddamn time.

I feel like chucking something through a wall right about now. Can't really blame it on my professor, but this just happened at the worst possible time.

That leaves SFK, winter, Saria, Roz, Ruto, Slow, Nebbles, MaestroUGC, ETF, DRP, gzgregory, etc. (not in any specific order)('cept for SFK being first, cuz his all caps posts secretly made my day a lot of the time)

Dude, you never truly valued me as a friend, it seems, if you're willing to end it so easily.
So I hope you and whatever sense you have left trip down a flight of stairs onto a pile of glass where mice later come and eat the intestines out of your coma-induced body. Go to hell.

kbai.
Okay so I'm not his friend

I'm just gonna go find a corner and cry now

It's a new experience that will broaden your horizons and make you experience amazing things that will only happen in one's lifetime only a few times.

Have fun. Enjoy your classtime. It goes by fast (and for those of us on the Quarter System, it goes even faster), so make sure you try and get as much out of this experience as you possibly can.

Don't worry, you can always call your parents and skype with your dog! haha.

Bonne Chance!

(Also, where are you going?)

Thanks. Were most of the experiences academic or fun?

And I'm off to Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, MI. Long way from Oregon!
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: DrP on August 23, 2011, 12:37:21 PM
Hillsdale's nice (but there was no way I wanted to go to college up in Michigan, Minnesota or that general area).

I was sort of referring to both, as what I said kind of applies in both senses.

I do go to school in an area that supports lots of fun (beaches, hiking areas, lakes, the works) and academics with all amazing stuff that happens on campus with all the colleges and stuff.

The accounting department puts on a barbeque in the middle of january (yes, it may be 65, but who cares)... it's amazing. People do lots of stuff to combine fun with an academic flair.

Having helped out with residential education in my university's dorms for quite awhile now, I can say the best thing to do in order to have a good transition to college is to just get involved and put yourself out there in some way. I've seen too many people just be hermits in their dorm rooms and never do anything outside of classes and going home for the weekend, and then they end up leaving one or two semesters in because they didn't like the "college experience". What experience? You never did any of it!

Enjoy being a freshmen though, because I guarantee that you will never have as much free time and little responsibility as that first year. I miss it now. :(

I jumped from Freshman to third year. ACK! it's gonna be pretty hectic with 21 units + ECAs

My roommates last year were the hermits, and I wanted to go out. All they did was play Mario Kart all day (and then some other games) and I spent time networking. I can't believe I have a career fair a week after school starts!

It wasn't you, it was me. Around that time in my life I blamed everything on myself and accepted it if someone blamed me.

And after two whole years of blaming myself I finally got sick of it, and now I'm doing a "Fuck You" of the month decided by random.org.  :)

September is coming too slowlyyyyyyy.

HEY I'm trying to stop blaming myself as well! And be not so pathetic and a pushover! I need a WEEKLY, or even DAILY fuck you! xD Except everyone on here is too awesome.

I've been thinking about justice lately. And I've come to realize that it does not exist. Justice is an illusion created by man. Incorporated into religions with ideas such a Hell, where justice can be done upon the wicked for all eternity, or that a bad man will die and be reincarnated as a rat. These religious ideas are just as much a fallacy to atheist as justice in whole is to me. Along with a idiotic idea that man is inherently good. All lies.

All I can do is laugh.

I use that on a tri or quad weekly basis with crazy drivers.

Like, when I was merging onto the freeway from the dentists, there was this line of cars and two of them sped up to let me in, but also this blonde woman driving this planet of a mini-van decided to speed up the moment I was about to enter the lane and took my freaking spot, so I had to go over to the shoulder. I then proceeded to get in behind her and speed up alongside her, looked her square in the eye, gave her the finger and mouthed "Fuck You!". She was shocked and I sped along to go back to work.

That was actually a great day.

The requirements for bringing it back are perfectly reasonable if there really is that interest already.

XD okay good. I was hoping there was at least some discussion.

I mean it's true, the original announcement was completely out of the blue and very odd, considering very few people had expressed interest in such a thing. Plus it had not been discussed among the community at all, which was kind of off putting.

And we wouldn't want inadequate orchestral arrangements on the site; which many of them probably would be.

OH YEAH. ETF. TIPS ON HOMECOMING.

I've already asked her whether she wanted to go voluntarily or involuntarily, so the question isn't how to approach her, but rather how to slow dance.  ???

SLOW DANCING IS SO AWKWARD. Umm, but what I've always done is just hold them close and turn in a circle slowly until the songs over.

Or say 'wanna ditch and get hot dogs?'

Personally I prefer the latter.

My dad is enforcing a new rule. No games of any kind Monday~Thursday. Why? Because last year my grades got slightly off track at the beginning of the year. His reason: "I can't reward you before you show effort, that doesn't make sense."

I've done every freaking APUSH homework assignment so far, in addition to all other homework in all other classes, which apparently isn't showing that I'm actually trying this year (if this was last year, I wouldn't have even thought about doing some of these, they're ridiculous).

I just can't get over the fact that he's essentially grounding me for slacking off, when I haven't slacked off yet. So "not rewarding in advance" is basically "punishing you for stuff you might do in the future."

Wtf dad.

I consumed 50% of my normal dose of caffeine, and I will continue on this path until Tuesday, where I will reduce it further.

So now, I am super tired and exhausted. I literally drank about 3 gallons of water between 8 and 4 today.

But I also have that feeling that I should be doing something (reading, arranging something, jogging, recommencing work on language studies, playing music, playing vgs... the list goes on) -- but I have no idea why something is pressing. I just need to pack for school this weekend (!)

I am just so freaking mad... SOOOOO LIVID!!!!I should seriously stop watching political reports on tv

Also, there was a MASSIVE power outage today that covered Southern California (San Diego, Imperial, San Bernardino, Riverside and parts of Orange, Los Angeles and Kern Counties -- thats like ALL of Southern California) AS WELL AS many parts of Arizona and Mexico... all of San Diego is out of power... which totally sucks. (Luckily we have it, but at work a few cities south had power cut, so we all went home early). Maybe because our heatwave just shorted out a major line in the power. It's finally 98 and its 6:15 PM... it's been 107 for the past 3 days. Luckily it's supposed to be 73 as the high when I go up to school!!!!!!!

When I was a Sophomore in High School, we had fires in Yorba Linda and parts of northern Camp Pendelton that made us close our school for a full week.

It was pretty nasty because we didn't see sun for 2 weeks from all the ash in the air and it looked like a dust storm. Here's a photo of the fires and then a photo I took jogging one last december. Those fires were about 7 miles away, so I TOTALLY know how you feel.

But the lower half of my city is on the SDG&E grid and we're on the LBG&E grid in the north half. However all the important stuff (hospital, community college, government buildings) is in the south city... so they are having problems, plus gas stations between here and San Diego (that's about 75 miles) have no power.

Such discussion violates the rule:
QuoteDo not publicly complain about other members, admins, etc.  That should be done through private messages.

If you want to bitch about me or other mods, then send a PM to JaMaHa or Concerto or even me explaining your concerns.  Or even go and talk to other people about it.  Just don't post on the forums, that puts a bad image on the entire site.

Well, it's just manicured. We live in a desert and without lots of water and rich people who demand nice cities, it will just be brush and dirt and other stuff (with lots of hills and mountains) -- it is REALLY dry out here, so fires are always happening between May-November.

Oh, and CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/09/08/california.power.outages/index.html) has a picture of my city on it!!!! It's the south side where the outage reaches the end where power is once again (and right by Mission Hospital) -- WOOT! (Oh and that's Crown Valley Parkway and I-5 if you wanna google map it)

Worst day ever.  So my dog (Chihuahua) is begging for food while my brother is eating toast or something and my other dog (Bloodhound/boxer mix = big) is begging too.  I need to mention, the bloodhound is like 3, and the Chihuahua is 14.  Hes REALLY old and is hard to take care of.  So the big dog thinks the little dog is getting food so he kind of nibs him (bite) in the head.  He really didn't mean to hurt him just a dog gesture to say "Get off my toast" but really, (this is disgusting for those who cannot handle it.) he actually pushed into his neck making his little eyeball fall out and blood was everywhere on the floor and my mom is just hysterical and they take him to the hospital as fast as they could.  The doctor says they have to do surgery right away, and the dog is going to loose his eye.  THIS ALL HAPPENED WITHIN 1 HOUR.  Hes now sitting in his cage (he must be caged up temporarily) with the cone of shame and he has no eye with his little eyelids stitched shut.  Every time I see his eye I start tearing up.  I feel like I've been hit by a train.  :'(

We have two restaurants. Last week we were forced to close one due to lack of business. We have no idea what's going to happen. Or if we'll be able to keep our house.

Today I realized just how badly my family is falling apart. My aunt hates me. My other aunt moved away and told my great aunt that we're shitty people. My moms in debt. I feel like a stranger in my own home because of my aunt's hatred. She thinks I'm just an ungrateful stupid kid.

Well technically her and my uncle own it. But we're still family. But it's at the point now where my mom and I are basically just tenants. I am pretty pissed though. She took my phone, which my mother pays for, not her.

I'm trying to stop myself from developing a crush on another girl, but it's kinda hard. CALM DOWN SARIA YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU AND I'LL NEVER WORK UP ANY GUTS TO ASK SOMEONE OUT ANYWAY.

Like I said somewhere else, though, I don't really know if I want a relationship...they sound so frivolous and pointless...but I don't know if I want to go through high school without dating anybody...idk. I won't be in one even if I want to either way so it doesn't matter. :P

If I can say some stuff from experience, all the people I knew from high school were total assholes. You could be saving yourself from pain XD

You can hear other people bawww about their bad relationships later (like I am, right now). It's annoying. Who knows, maybe it can work out well too.

I suggest you wait a while longer if you're set on forming a relationship with a girl.  You're an adolescent, so if you have any feelings for a girl, it can mostly be attributed to hormones.  Remember, 50% of all marriages end in failure, so just imagine how many romantic relationships end in similar manners, especially in high school.  You're not set on what you want to do in life and neither does anyone else your age (But if they do, kudos for being anomalies then, I suppose!).  You still have a life to live and you're going to (probably) change most during the first third of your life, when you're being schooled and educated.  The chances of meeting a girl who would be a perfect match for you is ridiculously low in high school and the chances of meeting one who will stay that way is even lower.  And on the off chance that you do meet a girl like that, there are still other fish in the sea.  I would hate to make a relationship sound any less unique, but it's true!  Just because you can't form a relationship with one girl doesn't mean that you can't with another.

So, moral of the story, be asexual.

The asexuality was a joke, for the most part.  There's nothing wrong with being heterosexual, but I would suggest you wait until you're able to live on your own and sustain yourself before you try to form a relationship.  But I'm no dating expert, anyhow, so you may want to take my suggestions with a grain of a salt.

I totally agree with that. High School relationships are just meh. They do give you experience, but they lead no where. Those who marry people they met in high school are statistically HIGHER to get divorced than those who get married after college.

Lol so there's this new kid in my grade, I've talked with him a bit. The kind of person I can't stand. Kind of nice, but arrogant and annoyingly good at stuff, and he has to be "the cool guy" and he's like eighteen times better looking than me. This morning he was just standing around me and Margaret and her boyfriend and all the rest of my friends...many of whom are really pretty girls... And I can see he's just like, "why are all these girls hugging this weird kid" and so forth, and he stares at Margaret the whole time. So ANYWAY when the bell rang he out of nowhere he says to Margaret, "you have fucking awesome eyes." Trying to be cool. I wanted to laugh so hard when she looked really disgusted and ignored him (I know her well enough to know she hates swearing...). Just lololol I hope to god he asks her out and she rejects him... I get a certain sick, bitter satisfaction from watching douchebags completely fail. It's really horrible actually but I can't help it.

Yep.

First, never swear directly AT or NEAR a girl unless they allow it (like we can all do it with Roz and ETF)

Second, what spit said.

Third, guys like that usually go for the cheap floosy looking for just a one-night-stand or something quite meaningless. If I was looking for a relationship, It'd be with a girl I enjoy hanging around with, having a conversation with and can think coherently and enjoys some smart-people things... ya know.

Knowing the description of the guy (I know many of those types of people... sigh, the people studying marketing and management... what am I going to do about them -- I can't possibly teach them Financial Accounting in 11 weeks), they probably need to google the word to know what it means...

And yes, the guys going for cheap floozy cycle never ends. Never. And then you see all these sad whiny wall posts on Facebook about how "omg i'm so sad <////3" and it's sickening.

jesus fucking christ stop whining about relationships if you jump in and out of them every five seconds.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on September 26, 2011, 05:30:45 PMLol so there's this new kid in my grade, I've talked with him a bit. The kind of person I can't stand. Kind of nice, but arrogant and annoyingly good at stuff, and he has to be "the cool guy" and he's like eighteen times better looking than me. This morning he was just standing around me and Margaret and her boyfriend and all the rest of my friends...many of whom are really pretty girls... And I can see he's just like, "why are all these girls hugging this weird kid" and so forth, and he stares at Margaret the whole time. So ANYWAY when the bell rang he out of nowhere he says to Margaret, "you have fucking awesome eyes." Trying to be cool. I wanted to laugh so hard when she looked really disgusted and ignored him (I know her well enough to know she hates swearing...). Just lololol I hope to god he asks her out and she rejects him... I get a certain sick, bitter satisfaction from watching douchebags completely fail. It's really horrible actually but I can't help it.

Same. They look so retarded, they deserve to be laughed at.

I'm sure they say the same thing about us.  d:

There are some people that only go into a relationship because they're actually in love, while a lot of them only go because they're physically attracted, making it harder for the rest of us.  :<

The latter is only okay if you're in it for both reasons.  ;)

I'm more talking about guys who are more popular than me, or better looking (this isn't very hard) or just generally "better", but with a horribly arrogant personality and just really stupid... it makes me so glad to see that girls I respect don't fall for that crap.

I know a couple of people like that. They were always bragging about their grades and w/e, until one time this girl was telling everyone in our class that our exam was really easy because her grade = 95%. She then proceeds to brag while I'm there, so I told her that my grade = 99%. TAKE THAT! Didn't hear about her grades anymore after that. I hate people who think they are superior because they are "so good" at everything they do. Guess they'll never understand the fact that there will always be someone better than you out there.

I suggest you sleep and receive some repose.  It's usually a good way to relieve stress or any other negative emotions, for that matter, whether you know why you're feeling melancholic or not.
If it's a problem that will continue gnawing at you, then I would suggest you visit the chat or post it on the forum.  That way, we can provide solace and perhaps even help you solve the problem.  Though, if you don't feel comfortable sharing (Or don't know why you're depressed), then it's understandable.
Hope you feel better, SlowPokemon!

Blargh I got the question on the carboxyl group wrong...I drew a carbonyl group...What sucks is that I first drew a carboxyl group...then crossed it out. The first answer is usually the correct one, I guess -.-

My parents, who have wanted to move to this beachside place 10 hours away (by car) decide NOW is the best time. Right in the middle of High School. I finally feel like I'm set up - I have 4 or 5 good friends, I have work, I really like my house, I'm starting to meet the ladies, and I'm acing school - especially music.

But of course, I'm being pulled out of this place by my parents to this brand new place. It could be a change for the better, starting almost a new life. But I really don't want to move.

Oh and plus it feels like everyone's got a girlfriend but me.

To all you loveless silly guys out there. You need to face a fact. All nice girls go for douche bags. Its a universal rule.Nice guys don't get squat. Until the age of 25, at least. When a woman turns 25, she realizes that she's been dating nothing but douche bags, and that's where all you nice guys get your turn. You find some nice girl who's usually hot, get married, have lots of sexy time and maybe some babies, the regular shit. The douche bags, ehhhh not so lucky. They get stuck with some ugly woman and miserableness forever.

Silly Saria, emo people cut themselves! I just tend to hit myself.
Although it's loud and my dad's like WHAT WAS THAT and turns around, so this time around I just bit into my arm really hard so he wouldn't hear it. I'm not emo!

Also, I always get like this when I'm depressed.  :( I go mental and in order to stop crying I stop thinking in general, and that really screws me up educationally as well as socially.
If you force your mind to go blank a lot for 30 minutes to an hour at a time, it tends to stay that way and it's hard to come back.
I find it hard to figure out simple arithmetic when I'm like this.

You won't like me when I'm angry depressed! O:

It's an infinite loop, because the absent-mindedness might have contributed to getting me here in the first place.

It's weird because to do my homework I have to stop crying, and then to stop crying I have to stop thinking, and to do my homework I have to think through the problems.

You could just be humanistic like me and suddenly receive the vigorous fervor to not give up.  After all, others have had things worse and were able to overcome adversities without problem.  And they were average people too.  Napoleon was able to keep his composure when facing all of Europe, Hitler was able to keep his charisma when he began losing WWII, Gandhi was able to be ridiculously altruistic when the British adamantly refused to leave India, among other things.

More often that not, as human beings, we quibble about trivial things.  Is it okay to act emotional to things?  Yes, of course.  When one's mother dies, one shouldn't feel melancholic forever.  Give oneself respite and realise that life is life.  One can miss his/her mother, but he/she shouldn't be lachrymose for the rest of his/her life because of it.

Furthermore, life is transient.  And so are all the good and bad things that occur to us.  We'll pass times of melancholy sooner or later and quickly forget of our sadness.  I don't remember how many times I've hurt myself in painful manners, because pain is ephemeral.  It's natural for us to live and forget.  Pain isn't important to us, so we'll all soon forget all pain we've experienced (Unless it's something traumatising, but that's a different story).

You also must remember, pain is essential.  I'm not speaking of just physical pain either.  Without pain, we would never be able to amend ourselves in any way.  You're not supposed to be intimidated by pain, you're supposed to improve from it.  You have to embrace it and force yourself to feel better because of it.


But nevertheless, I hope that whatever is troubling you ends soon, Jub3r7.  Hopefully, whatever the problem is, you'll overcome it somehow.

It's okay, Jub. Don't let yourself get too down. After all you've got a girlfriend which is obviously the most important thing (for Kefka's benefit).

Seriously, imagine me hugging you. I wish I was able to go ice skating with you now. :-\

In other news, one of Margaret's friends, really super pretty and intelligent girl who is in colorguard and tends to be overlooked (in my opinion) is in my psych class and sits near me at lunch. I made it a point to talk to her, just because I figured I should put my awkward self out there (no actually I just thought she looked depressed). I had fun talking to her, we have a lot of the same opinions on stuff... I think she liked the fact that I actually listened to what she had to say...other times I've noticed she'll say something and people will ignore her. So today I was like "Hi [name]" loudly with a smile when I saw her in the halls on the off chance she'd remember me. And at first she didn't see me ( so i thought that like usual, I get ignored) but she noticed me and called back "Hi, Jordan!" happily. She actually remembered my name. Oh my god. Crazy.

She's way too pretty for me to even consider thinking about like that, but still! It's nice to know some people appreciate me being nice. And that I can make friends if I want. Interestingly enough, in my English class, where I know almost no one, everyone likes me because I'm good at the subject. Weird, in the past, I've only been hated for being good at school.

WRONG TOPIC BUT I DON'T CARE.

Furthermore, life is transient.  And so are all the good and bad things that occur to us.  We'll pass times of melancholy sooner or later and quickly forget of our sadness.  I don't remember how many times I've hurt myself in painful manners, because pain is ephemeral.  It's natural for us to live and forget.  Pain isn't important to us, so we'll all soon forget all pain we've experienced (Unless it's something traumatising, but that's a different story).

You also must remember, pain is essential.  I'm not speaking of just physical pain either.  Without pain, we would never be able to amend ourselves in any way.  You're not supposed to be intimidated by pain, you're supposed to improve from it.  You have to embrace it and force yourself to feel better because of it.


But nevertheless, I hope that whatever is troubling you ends soon, Jub3r7.  Hopefully, whatever the problem is, you'll overcome it somehow.
I'm not the type of person to give up; it just hurts a little when someone who is trying to support you is actually creating the obstacle without realizing it.
And the way I forget the pain is by not thinking, and that screws things up, and then when I get sad again I remember the pain from before and it prolongs the pain I'm experiencing at the moment.
And I remember the traumatizing pain from when I was forced to lie as a little kid, because he thought I was wrong (as opposed to my brother) and I was spanked until I told the 'truth'.
And the truth to him was a lie to me. I would be hit until I lied. Looking back at the situation, I try to look for other options; I think how I could've explained to him that even if I was wrong in reality, I didn't believe I was, and therefore I wasn't lying, but applying that to situations now, negotiating doesn't work on parents when they're too busy hitting/yelling at you.
And in addition to that, I wasn't intelligent enough to form that argument at that age. I also have considered the option of running when I look back, but I never had the guts to run.
The reason I look back at that so much is because people say you can't be "forced" to do anything, so I try to come up with alternate solutions.
After applying those solutions to current problems, I realize they wouldn't work at all.

Also, ty people for trying to help me. The effort is comforting. Except the part where slow hugged me.  ;)

It sounds really petty but I don't care. Me and my brother share a shower. This morning was supposed to be my day to take a shower first but I just took one last night and TOLD him that. This morning he waits in his room for me to tell him he can have the shower. He lies to my dad about it, being a fucking crybaby and saying how I lied. My dad then tells me what I did was "bullshit" he didn't appreciate, and I'm being an idiot. With that hanging over my head I gritted my teeth and put on my happy face for school as we waited for the bus, him taunting me the whole time. Today, he tells me it's his day tomorrow to take a shower first (meaning I have like no time) even though it isn't. I told him I would just get up ten minutes earlier so we'd both have sufficient time. In return, he barged in my room angrily, grabbed my neck and squeezed really hard, then punched my scrawny self with his freakish muscles. When I tried to shove him out of my room, my mom downstairs overheard. When she asked what was going on, instead of saying "nothing" and getting on with our lives, my brother opts to be a jerk and say how I'm stealing HIS day or something, and it's horrible cause I said I'd get up earlier (I don't see how this makes sense). And also I tried to shove him out of my room, "hitting him really hard with the door." Oh and apparently he didn't even touch me. Go figure, my neck's randomly aching. I then get yelled at and called an idiot by my dad for wanting to get up early and then apparently hitting my brother with a door.

Just REALLY ANNOYING because such big idiots can control my life.

My brother is YOUNGER than me. I should be in charge. But God cursed me with this ridiculously pathetically scrawny body.

My dad is really, really, REALLY arrogant, almost as bad as me. And HE WILL NOT LISTEN TO REASON. I can't even disagree with him without getting completely criticized. So I just have to submit to his opinions.

I really cannot wait for the day when I never see my siblings except like a few times a year, and don't have to listen to my father at all. And my mother's often just as bad. -_- and she's EXTREMELY bitchy when she needs to be. Annoyed by me playing the piano, she screams my name like she's really pissed off instead of calling me at normal volume.

My dad's just stupid. Ridiculous punishments, ridiculous conversations, ridiculous logic. He's brilliant in business sense but so unbelievably stupid in so many things. And if I disagree with him at all, I'm a smartass and an idiot.

Teen years were always my terrible time... for sure. Your brother has been quite douchey to you.

I'll bet you're going to be happy in August of 2013 when you finally leave off to college to get at BS in Anal Organization. (Holy Crap, I'll graduate 2 months before that!)

Everything's going to be fine. Minor setbacks lead to greater achievement, even if it pisses you off.

Lemme say, last year, my roommate literally waited for me to wake up and the moment I opened the door to go outside to the hall, he darted into the bathroom to take a shower (which I had to listen to all the stuff he did in there since the walls were thin) -- and if I wanted to strangle him/punch him/poison him/defenestrate him, he would've started whining and would've gone to the CA (like an RA) and just gone nuts. I totally feel you, but not in the physical sense.

I would seriously come over and bring you Starbucks and give you a hug and do what ever (oh God, I sound like a woman) -- I've helped people in the past (like a friend of mine to not cut herself and help her with a pretty nasty break-up) -- I've literally heard the brunt of it... and then I'll put you on a protein diet and get you to the gym/jogging track/pool to start training.

Well, I'm aboot ready to start the countdown clock to my parent's divorce. My mom just kicked my dad out of the house. God, these people act like such children.

At least if they separate, I'll finally get some goddamn quiet around the house.

Both parents happily married for...um..30-something years.

Also just remembered. Back in like 7th grade in english class we had a listening compherension test. The recording was about an orphan and one of the questions was "What's different about [name] when compared to the other children?" I wrote "She has no father or mother."

Got 0 points because according to the teacher everyone has a father and a mother. The correct answer would've been that they're dead.

Bah.

She invited a bunch of people to eat together and then go to some bar, but I told her I couldn't go because my friends and I wanted to study for our big exams next week. She told me to send her a text message when we'd be done. I didn't even sleep at my place (was sleeping at a friend's house and it was really far from where my other friends were) and I went to bed at 2 am, so I told her I wouldn't be there after all and that I was sorry for that. Now she's mad at me because I decided to study instead of going to her b'day party. Wtf. I pay god-knows-how for my education, I really don't want to fail my exams because of some party. >_>

I do. Well, the people I met here in Quebec City are amazing! I really have fun hanging out with them. My crappy friends are from High school/Cegep. They're stupid, selfish, don't give a shit about what you think, etc. They really suck. That girl was one of them. I'm not really talking to them anymore, so I don't really care. Honestly even if I would've been available I don't think I would've gone to her b'day party, just 'cause I'm pissed out. I really don't give a shit about them anymore.

I have decided that I really am not going to care about anything... why? because I am too busy to care.

I totally wish I had time for everything, but it totally sucks having to worry about everything.

If only I could travel or study a language without it adversely affecting my GPA or really intensely work on music and get better and really work to help me become less of a mediocre person... because looking back with all the stuff I've done, it's all just mediocre.

Today I wanted to be Macbeth again and everyone said 'dont do that voice again' then this dumb bitch who is the dumbest fucking person I've ever met said 'ya cause its annoying when you talk like that...' so I said (to myself) 'its annoying if you talk ever'

Then read it in that voice just to piss them off.

I missed that one day and now I'm stuck with a )% on that test. TEST ARE WORTH 70% OF MY FUCKING GRADE. I've tried reasoning with her multiple times but the bitch won't do anything!

Fuck that shit.

My friends who are studying in Sherbrooke came to visit us today, because they don't have school this week. My bf kept asking me to go over to his appartment sometime during the week, so I said I could go today because my exams would be over. He said it was okay and that we could meet at the pub located near my dorm. My friend's appartment is kinda far from my dorm. Iirc I have to walk for at least 30 minutes to get there. It's not that bad... except I had to walk a lot and it's fucking cold outside today. So I sent him a text message to tell him that I'll be at the pub in 30 minutes, and he said "it's okay, I'll be waiting for you there". Then, right when I arrive at the pub, he sends me another text message saying that he decided to go to some random bar, and I'd have to walk another 20 minutes to get there. Fuck it. I hadn't seen my friends for months, and I really wanted to hang out with them knowing that I'm probably going to see them in January, and that's if I'm lucky, otherwise it's going to be in March. I'm fucking mad.

i don't know where to fucking start  :) but 3 major music conservatories rescinded my conditional acceptance into their music programs because my english professor failed everyone in the class except one person. hint: it was not me. i'm stuck going to a county college now and i'm not even wasting my time with their music program because of legal issues with one of the professors. i worked my fucking ass off last year and practiced and composed until my hands were in bandages and i still kept working i didn't sleep i didn't eat and i took freezing cold showers. now that i have to reapply to all these schools that reputedly barely ever accept transfer students, i just feel like i'm fucked for life just because one fat ass professor needs to get her ass laid. i never wanted to go through losing my mind like that again, and here I am feeling the same fucking anxiety and distress i did last year at every single task. i would drop out and pursue a life dedicated to personal development if my mom weren't suicidal. ugh... where would i be without boges and buds...

If you failed for no reason, I'm certain that at least somebody in the school could put that word in for you, or you could have at least attempted to send in an appeal.  Of course, that would be if she really did fail you for no reason o;

Just going and blaming everybody else for your problems isn't reaaaaaally the best way to go about things

heh quick to dismiss kefka. i sent in the appeals, attempted to contact the english professor multiple times. talked to the english department and they didn't do anything. i even secured a place in a master class being taught by one of the judges of the auditions to put in a good word so don't think i didn't try. and it's county college of morris. no one knows what they're doing there i went back there this semester and they lost all the files on me and i had to reapply. it doesn't make sense.

and in the end if i tried that hard and missed an opportunity dangling in front of my face because of one person, who, despite evidence pointing in the direction of an A or B as a final grade, fails me, i would say she is at fault and my work had amount to nothing. This isn't a break up. This isn't fight with a friend. This is a loss of professional development that will most likely affect my future. It's a powerful feeling.

So the band I think I'm part of sucks. Me on the guitar is alright, except I don't know scales, harmonies, chords, or pretty much anything else I should by this point well enough to be any good at improvising. The drummer is terrible.

I consider my physics lab professor to be a complete moron. It's a one credit class, yet she gives us a pre-lab assignment, a quiz, the lab, and a post-lab assignment for each lab we do. I think she just couldn't get a real job from the college so she's compensating by making our lives hell. Right now I'm doing a post-lab assignment and she words the questions so stupidly that there are like 3 different answers. Now I have to waste both of our time to get basic clarification by going in during office hours.

That really sucks. Loosing a cat is pretty terrible. I had to put down my cat about 4 years ago because he had feline leukemia since a baby, but we were surprised he lasted 7 years and then some. We all knew it was coming, but we put him to sleep because he would enter these cycles of being in a great mood and then descending into crazy sickness. I totally know how you feel... it sucks.

One of my old schools had that. I JUST passed despite having no grammatical errors and a decent argument. I guess they didn't think it was a decent argument because I said typical college students didn't value their education and just don't care about anything so I would understand why they couldn't care less about their government. I also "misinterpreted" a graph. They asked "according to the graphs, are landlines going extinct in the US?" I said no because the graphs indicated that there were still more landlines in the US (and the number was still growing, but not as much as the number of cell phones) than cell phones. Well that answer was wrong apparently.

My old English professor said that it isn't the English professors who grade the papers. They are psychology, physics, poly sci, etc... professors who grade them. They grade harsher than the English professors, more because they have really no idea how to grade. It is just too terrible.

While not quite at the level of "going extinct", it's similar to the IE v Chrome statistics now.  There's still a large base of users in the old style, and that will increase because it's still the stock default many go for, but as time goes on people will move away from that old standard and eventually not even start out with it as default.

So, not really "going extinct" as of yet, but more like "endangered".

But in the good way.

People are fucking stupid, and there are too many god damn humans in the world. The population is way too high everywhere, and these absent minded fools of the baby boomer generation are, by far, the worst generation in American history. Go back to your lorazepam-induced lives and continue living like zombies, detached from reality and reasonable thought, while the world you run crumbles around you so that your kids' generation, and their kids' generation, can be the ones to suffer while their lives are spent trying to undo the mistakes that you dumb fucks ignored. Fuck you: coke heads of the 80s. America isn't the America it once was, and it lost that glory once you dumbasses took over. The only generation worthy of respect anymore is the generation that ran the world before the baby boomers. Good job rebelling against the establishment in your 70s and 80s childhood, you sure brought the world into a better direction. Assholes. 


That's what's on my fucking mind, facebook. And fuck the baby boomers for treating facebook like it's the greatest thing ever. It's dumb as fuck and I want nothing to do with it or them ANYMORE.

Sometimes I think I'm like Samus and I have to resist the corruption of Phazon (social networks and stupidity in general) while I see my friends being corrupted (Rundas, Ghor, Gandrayda and so)... I know, Imma bit melodramatic...  :P  :D

ANYWAYS! Now when I say I prefer forums (Go NSM!  ;D) to social networks they look a me like: "What? Forums? Freak!"
The same when I say I like videogame music... I'm like  ????

Oh! And also! They all prefer war, bloody hi-graphics games to enjoyable ones! I don't mind at all, but at least don't say: "Nintendo is crap, it doesn't have HD graphics or war games!" And trust me, I've heard this phrase A LOT (that's why I want to see their faces when the Wii U launches!  ::)). I don't care whether you like Nintendo or not, but I don't start bashing Sony or Microsoft just because "they don't have enjoyable fun games", do I? So shut the f*** up!

And Pokemon! They all say: "Pokemon is for babies" or "Pokemon is stupid and gay". I mean, have they ever played a single Pokemon game? Some of them have, and now they don't like it, OK, I understand, but don't start bashing it just because! I could do that too with your obsession with photos and social networks, but whateva...   :-\

Please note that when I say "all of them" I mean "the great majority", as some of my friends are clever and don't want to mess up and fail their exams just because of silly photos. And I don't hate social networks or people who have an account on those, it's just that they should be used intelligently.  :)

Wow, what a relief... I hope they read this sometime and realize that they're wasting the chance to have a good future...  ;)

I've learned to ignore all the crap that splatters across my facebook news feed and stuff...

and I do admit I to tweet a bit during the day and I find it fine, but I get a lot of news updates from the heads of the WP7 division over at Microsoft.

I do totally feel the same way about telling people that I spend time on a forum and that I listen to videogame music -- I guess it's too epic for them to handle!

Let them live in their own little world. My policy generally is: Do whatever you want, but if it affects me in any way, shape or form, then I have a problem.

We have to pick our classes for next semester today, so I decided to that. I need a class that is called "Advanced Terminology". We could only pick our classes today at 6 am, some of my friends got up early to do it. Well, the 3 classes for Advanced Terminology were already full. WTF. 3 classes, and they were full this morning. People in Translation need that class. We don't know what we're going to do. I guess I'll just take Japanese I instead.

Go sit in the lecture and ask to be added anyway.  You're just another student ID, a professor won't care if you're just another one of the mass.

Plus people drop classes, so just stalk the registration forms.

Here we are assigned a registration number 1-12 and every other quarter we are below 6, so sometimes we dont get the classes we need. I have 1 this quarter so I will get all my classes!!!

Also if the class is full, you can ask to "audit" the course (you're not enrolled, but you can come in and learn)

secondly you bother me about whether I bought something in the kitchen which I have repeatedly said no I did not. I do not buy anything for the kitchen and all groceries I buy go into the minifridge in my room. why the fuck does it matter anyway?

thirdly you misplace the remote. how the fuck do you do this? it's for one tv and it's always in one spot. all you have to do is leave it on the fucking table when you're done. I don't give a fuck how old you are it's not that hard.

finally, you accuse me of buying stupid things with the money that you give. I have fucking said repeatedly that I did not buy it so don't yell at me that I did.

Same.

My roommates went backpacking in Big Sur and I have a crazy shitton amount of stuff to do... so I have been alone all weekend.

And I have literally tried to see what all my friends are doing, but they are either out of the area or just extremely busy since it is basically the last fully week of class before dead week.

If I was where you are (or vice versa), we'd totally hang out!

Starbucks in French would be Starbucks! hahaha.

But seriously, that's just plain dumb... I always find it awesome when I see shops and restaurants with French or Italian names (Spanish names are overused greatly over here)
So if I was living in a French area, I would love to see some shops in English (so then I would be able to tell everyone what it means)

Soprano has the same fingerings, but it's in the key of B flat instead of the alto sax key of E flat.

3) We were told to study 5 chapters for the test. There were about 10/50 questions on the 3 easiest chapters, and 25+15 questions on the 2 hardest chapters.
4) Test had a lot of typos and odd phrasing.

So my AP Lit teacher expects me to write formal literary analysis essay without having a fucking clue how to write one. We've had, like, 4 so far(all of which I've gotten C's on) but she never taught us how to write a fucking essay. I turned in the same kind of shit last year and every other year and got A's on it, but now I barely manage C's on this shit. Did she expect some other teacher to have already taught me the proper way of doing this? Because it didn't fucking happen.

So today right, I had my piano exam. It went alright, but when I get back to school during lunch my friends tell me that they had to do a presentation in SOSE about random people from the past that the teacher chose(Mine was on teh guy who discovered syphilius). It was originaly due last Monday, but being lazy kids with Facebook and stupid things, I was one of six people who had it ready. The teacher did her typical teacher rant about how lazy we are and that it's unfair on the people who did it and so on and so on. So then she sets the date for Tuesday. Well she wasn't there on Tuesday so we get a stupid sub teacher who makes us take notes on a movie. So then it's due today and because I had a piano exam I wasn't there so I get back to school and my friends tell me that I got a 0 because I wasn't there to present it. This teacher is a complete fail. I hope she leaves at the end of the year and the old guy comes back.

Step 1: set up flamethrower facing door
Step 2: cleverly attach string to doorknob
Step 3: set up remote for flamethrower
Step 4: sleep
Step 5: When noises are heard, do not leave bed. Pull on rope, and activate flamethrower with remote

OMG. We have tutorials once a week in our English class. Today, the teacher decided to merge them (usually they are either at 10:30 am or 11:30 am, mine is at 11:30 am) and apparently there was a test. No one knew about it, and we're all freaking mad. The teacher mentioned it at the end of the class, but I felt sick so I decided to only go to my tutorial. (No one goes to that class, because it's the most useless class ever. Seriously.) Couldn't take that damn quizz. They were at 10:30 am, and pretty much everyone who has their tutorials at 11:30 am didn't go. Seriously, wtf. She can't just change our classes like that. I could've had some kind of appointment since I am not supposed to have my tutorial there. And some people had stuff planned there so they couldn't take it either. Imad.

I think the most important part is to compare yourself to you. I'm not saying live in ignorance and expect the world to pave a path, but simply comparing yourself to what others have creates a feeling that you're not as good. Do what Raymondbl said- have a goal, watch yourself progress and see what you can do with who you are. It's much better than seeing the smart kid over their and the artistic kid over there and just thinking life sucks.

Hope you feel better SFK

I did take it twice, once in 10th Grade and another in 11th grade (The score I just recently received).

And yes, the PSAT is a horrid way to test student's knowledge in various topics.  If anything, it only tests a student on how hard he/she studied for it.

But I studied and I performed poorly, so I'm sad.


EDIT:
After some speculation, the standardised test that this person took wasn't ever specified.  So I can't necessarily compare it with the PSAT.

Don't study for the tests, you should already know all the material for it...resting before it is a better idea xD There was a follow up article (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/post/revealed-school-board-member-who-took-standardized-test/2011/12/06/gIQAbIcxZO_blog.html), the test was some kind of standardized exam in Florida (FCAT), and it's 10th grade math and reading, which should be similar to what's in the PSAT.

It all depends on the kind of people that are there.  If it's one of those sketch parties with all the bad music and people rubbing up against each other and alcohol everywhere that's one thing, but if it's a cool one with people you know and there are things going on that you would find enjoyable then yea, it would be fine.

You should still study for the SAT though.  Do practice questions, learn what kind of questions trip you up and strategies to get them.  My friend was pretty intense in her studying and got 2380 xDD

But really, around 2200-2400 SAT and 34-36 ACT scores are all the same.  Once you get in that area it's just dependent on whether or not it is a good day for you or you make dumb mistakes or there are more tricky questions than usual.

Fuckin FCAT. An easy piece of shit test that teachers spend 3 months preparing you for instead of teaching you stuff you might actually need for college. And some how liek 39% of kids don't pass the Reading portion. Which leads me to but one conclusion. 39% OF KIDS IN FLORIDA ARE FUCKING RETARDED.

On another note, this guy yesterday calculated my chem exam grade wrong and I only found out when I was apologizing to the professor for doing really badly.

So someone in my class today was arguing about how pot shouldn't be illegal because "GOD MADE IT AND GAVE US THE ABILITY TO SMOKE IT SO IT'S A GOOD THING." I actually stepped out my shell and stepped into the argument saying "Using the same logic, GOD GAVE US POPPY SEEDS AND GAVE US THE ABILITY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TURN IT INTO HEROINE AND HOW TO MAKE SYRINGES SO ITS PERFECTLY FINE AND REASONABLE FOR ME TO SHOOT UP WHENEVER I PLEASE."

I mean, I do think pot should be legalized so potheads will shut the fuck up. But could they at least come up with arguments that sounded less... retarded?

History is my major...and it is my worst class........

Starting to dislike the readings even now...it is all just humans killing humans at different times in different places in different ways. 

One chapter about rape, torture, murder, mutilation in the Congo....next chapter...rape and woman beating in Russia.

Well shit, how depressing.

"Okay, Since everyone in the virtual world is under the impression that in the next 3 days you're going to have this profound revelation of how to turn your life around and magically stop doing all the ish that YOU'VE BEEN DOING at the stroke of midnight with these superfluous New Years Resolutions heres a few for you; in 2012 you need to stop putting up these sap ass statuses about your meaningles...s relationships that have BEEN going to shit, claiming that you love EVERY PERSON YOU'VE EVER BEEN WITH. Stop posting your local talent ass music on every person you're friends with pages. Every person who gets in front of a camera thinking you're a model. Quit sending messages saying "hey sexy" or "whats up girl" when you CLEARLY see people are in relationships. Stop the use of the word SWAG! Discontinue the misuse of the term "movement". Don't make any more excuses for your fucked up attitude; CHANGE IT. And learn to spell and use words in the proper grammatical context. Oh and lets not forget STOP WAITING FOR THE NEW YEAR TO TURN YOUR LIFE AROUND! IT TAKES 15 DAYS FOR SOMETHING TO BECOME A HABIT SO START NOW. Kthanksbye ♥"

Facebook is retarded. When I hear girls talking about their fucking statuses and whatever other shit in school in makes me want scream at them and tell them how stupid they are. Spending hours upon hours posting things to your 1000 friends, 950 of which are just people you happened to see in the hallway that one time or maybe you asked them what today's date was and by god they told you! INSTANT FRIEND. As for the other 50, you're spending your time talking to them over facebook when you could simply meetup somewhere, have FUN in the real world and get some actual social interaction. Facebook is fucking retarded.

Quote from: spitllama on December 30, 2011, 09:57:01 PMI hate it when people ______ as their status

1) post song lyrics

2) complain about their relationship like everyone cares

3) talk about how amazing they are just because everyone has to see it

The major Facebook crisis...also announcing relationships/pregnancies/engagements like they're everyone's business. Then when I post about something worth reading, everyone ignores it unless they see an opportunity to sound like some stupid know-it-all.

@Jub
Sometimes people post relevant things? 2% which is the Internet standard, I guess.

My friends talked me into this after I left high school and I wasn't going to see 98% of them again.

I tried looking around in some of the existing topics there, but I didn't find any help.  I'm sure a solution for me will come up eventually, though...

EDIT:  Well, a couple seconds after making this post, it seems that my Internet has significantly sped up, almost to the point it was before I was having these problems, lol.  Unfortunately I can't have as many tabs open as I used to now since it still slows down... TL;DR, my comp has gotten slightly better.

  • Computer got a virus.  Got rid of it.
  • Virus regenerated itself, got rid of it again.
  • Firewall wasn't working and wouldn't start up again, downloaded something to fix it.
  • Caused computer to crash upon normal startup, tried booting it up using Last Known Good Configuration.
  • Worked, but I had no Internet (drivers were corrupt, or something).
  • Reverted to an old copy of my hard drive from October, so a bunch of my stuff is missing. (I also can't use Finale 2011 now because I need my authorization key again, which I can't find...)
  • Virus was still there, got rid of it for good this time (I hope).
  • Firewall doesn't work again (sounds familiar).
  • Downloaded the RIGHT files this time, firewall works like a charm now.
  • Internet is slower than usual now, it takes several minutes to load more than one tab at a time.


That's a very easy fix right there. You just had to use another computer to download the right drivers and then copy them over.

Bleh -.- did you really need to say it like that?

Anyway, today I cut my finger at the pharmacy while making copies so I thought I'd run home to clean the cut and get a bandaid. So while I'm at the sink, my mom runs over because I came home so suddenly:

Me: Can you get me a bandaid?
Mom: Why?
Me: I got a cut.
Mom: What happened?
Me: I got a cut -.-
Mom: Where? How?
Me: At the pharmacy.

So she leaves right after that, and when I was done cleaning it, she was nowhere in sight. So I go and try to find the bandaids by myself while trying not to get anything in the cut again. When I went out the door again, she was cleaning the kitchen. WTF. Pestered me with all those questions for nothing...I mean, is that what you'd do in situations?

Also I miss dahans -.- someone tell me he's still alive...

Another rant: People are trying to hook me up with this boy my height. This fat boy kept saying, "You're perfect because you guys are the same height." *Asks guy to take me* *Comes back to me* "Oooooh he rejected you." "Rejected." and follows me everywhere. I don't get him. That fat boy is short too and he just started hating me for my height. He keeps hanging around me and my friends.

Another similar topic: People in my class think I like another boy because I put him in my comic as the extremely grumpy superhero. One kid is like, "I believe you like him." And I said "No I don't." Then he kept bothering me saying I like him and I kicked him because everybody was pissing me off. He said, "You are too small to be born violent. Whatever. He doesn't like you anyway."

Third rant: Kids are believing these rumors and calling me bitch and whore behind my back. One girl in my class told me that.

Yeah. This all happened yesterday. I told the teacher and she's gonna yell at them. Too bad teachers can't put these people in a gas chamber. I can't take this anymore. I need an NSM meet-up to cheer me up. I want dahans to come here and shoot these kids with a rifle.

Middle school was the worst for me. I hated people because everyone is changing, no one knows exactly who they are themselves, and most kids have nothing else better to do then to pick on others. I was picked on in middle school a lot. I was told to ignore them, but what people don't understand is that it's hard to.  They constantly make fun of you and harass you it's ridiculous.  I'm not honestly sure how to avoid these types of people...I just took it and when I got out of 8th grade everything got better.

Beat them up. A person should only have to take so much shit before they spit it back out. I once took tons of shit from kids on my bus in junior high. They harassed me for no apparent reason except for the fact that I was there. Towards the end of the year, one of them stuck his disgusting foot in my face. I yanked him out of his seat and punched another asshole in the face multiple times. The bus driver didn't see any of it and I was left alone afterwards. Long story short, violence works.

Lol you don't know how to ignore people like I do, then.  Don't speak, look at, interact with, or be within 5 feet of any troublemaker if you can help it. STOP TALKING TO MELODY, don't treat her like a friend in any way, and when people ask or make fun of you, ask them if they think it's true. They'd have to be stupid to think it is, because 12 year-olds shouldn't even be thinking or doing those things.

Besides, that kind of stuff is nothing to joke about or gossip about, you're in freakin' school, not on TV. You can actually get in trouble for that kind of thing IRL...she should feel pretty stupid for having to do that stuff for attention, for a cheap laugh or some kind of ego booster (like the guy that keeps joking about 'rejecting' you, chances are, he probably knows that he isn't going to be able to say that to anyone else, ever. He might even hear it a lot, but he's doing it just because he feels like shit about himself).

I used to be picked on in elementary school for being Chinese.  I find that ignoring them works fairly well, or if you have the material get into some wordplay with them.  Everything depends on the person that's bullying you.  Personally I don't think violence is the best solution given the risks, and the key to warding off those bullies in the long term is not being upset by what they're doing to you, and either try to be indifferent or joke around with them. 

Short people are not to be underestimated.

I hope you get to see it. It will be very satisfying.

If you really can't ignore people, sing your favourite song in your head while they're around and walk in the total opposite direction to where their group of 'friends' are. Don't trust anyone with any 'info' about you unless they've proved that they can be trusted or they're being paid to teach you. Always remember, that because you're not doing it you are automaticaly infinite times smarter and better than them.

Omg. The retarded English teacher I had last semester is also teaching the English class I have this semester. Today was our first English class of the semester, and she decided that she wanted the class to last an hour longer than what it usually is (8:30-10:20 am). My friends and I were mad, because she just can't do that without telling us, so we left at 10:40. Apparently the teacher got mad when we left. Everyone wanted to leave 'cause she was "teaching" us "how to translate". We've seen stuff more complicated than that last semester in both her class and another one, and it was basic stuff we've all seen in high school. Ugh. I hate that bitch. -___-

According to the state rules of New York, you can only possess a switch blade if
1. You have a state hunting/fishing license, AND
2. Only when you are on a hunting/fishing trip.

It's actually like that for many states; buying and selling them isn't illegal, just, well, handling them...

Yes, though I found imaginary numbers and anything involving them incredibly easy. But overall, I still hate it(and math in general)

I love music more than anything, though, and really want a career in composition, especially for films or video games.

If a person would point and laugh at you for asking them out you probably wouldn't want them for a girlfriend anyway.  I think the best thing is to try it, but only when she's pretty much alone.

I find myself concentrating more when I'm not in a relationship because there isn't someone calling me/I'm not calling her, every night. Motivation I would think would be because you feel like you're just working for "you," right? There's no one else to appreciate it.

I'm no expert though.

UGH. Today in my journalism class the teacher brought up how Wikipedia would be blacked out due to SOPA protesting, over half the class didn't know what SOPA is or didn't care. This pissed me off so fucking much, that people can care that little and pay attention that little. This one asshole just started talking about how he likes to watch documentaries about drugs. Someone asked him why Wikipedia was being blacked out and he said 'because of something called SOPA, whatever that is'. I almost slapped him. What the fuck is with people.

I don't understand the ruckus over it either, to be frank.  If the bill somehow even passes in the Legislature, Obama vetoes it and looks good for the next Presidential election (!!! ... Well, maybe!).  If he doesn't veto (Hahahahahaha, that would be such a terrible decision, but so hilarious.) or his veto is overturned, the Supreme Court will rule it as unconstitutional.  Really, the bill shouldn't pass in Congress, and if it does, the bill is going to die anyway.

As far as people being unaware of these bills; should I castigate others for being unaware of the current Prime Minister of Italy (Who has a much easier to remember name than Berlusconi!)?  No, because not everyone pays such close attention to the news.  And even then, it's not as if SOPA is the main headline in most newspapers, considering that it's not going to pass as a law anyway.  The Internet is probably the largest source of information towards SOPA (I wonder why!), so evidently, people who frequent the Internet will be familiar with the bill.  So I feel that, although it may irksome to some, it's unfair to criticise people for being unfamiliar with the bill (Especially since it's not going to become a law anyway.  If it did, we would have bigger problems than Internet censorship).

But that's just me, anyway.

Post by: Wrydryn on January 18, 2012, 04:27:23 PM
The ruckus over it is the fact that it's a very real possibility that it could pass. Also I don't trust Obama to veto it and I would rather just have it not pass at all.
Also don't forget about PIPA (Protect IP Act), this bill is just as damaging as SOPA.

The stink about these bills is also the fact of the collateral damage they cause to the internet that is getting in the way of the original purpose.

It was also nice to see SOPA get some news coverage on TV in how sites are shutting down for the day.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Mashi on January 18, 2012, 05:06:43 PM
It won't pass.  The possibility may as well not exist, because the bill has no chance of existing as a law in this form of government.

Also, it would be absolutely foolish for Obama to not veto the bill with the upcoming election.  To even think that he won't veto the bill is ridiculous.

Unconstitutional is a frivolous term; since ultimately the supreme court decides exactly what is constitutional, just because they feel like it is. And according to my US history teacher, there are often some disturbing inconsistencies with these judgments.

Today at lunch my friend's asshole boyfriend made a really, really mean comment about me. Like, no one could believe how mean it was. So I threw a tomato slice at him. He said "thank you" and thrusted his water bottle at me, soaking my hair and clothes with water, and laughed hysterically. Thanks. Douchebag. God, I hate him. If only he weren't like twice the size of me.

^Just in case you ever need it :P

In my opinion since the fight already started you might as well have dumped your drink on him too, unless you already drank it.

Otherwise, try not to do too much about it, because he might come back looking for revenge. 

Like in the bullying that recently happened here

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5HZQ7l2xYqA&oref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fv%2F5HZQ7l2xYqA%3Fversion%3D3%26hl%3Den_US%26rel%3D0

I mean, if that guy knew martial arts and beat them all up, they probably would take the next chance they have to kill him with a knife or something.

Just play these things back on the douchebag. He acted like he didn't care when you threw the tomato slice, so do the same thing. You gotta just act like you don't care (even though your fuming anger is probably evaporating all the water :P). Then he's got nothing to do but just sit there and be disappointed as he waits for a reaction. At least that's how I've found to deal with situations.

Yeah I think it depends on what the bully wants from bullying you. If you know that then you know how to stop him from bullying you.  That way would work for any situation when he's trying you make you feel bad, but it wouldn't work if the bully wanted to humiliate you.

Post by: SuperFireKirby on January 20, 2012, 03:20:55 PM
What can I say. Assholes will be assholes. But here's some measures you can take to defend against the asshole in your life.

1. CHILL DA FUCK OUT. Keep it chill, play it coll, and be a bro. He throws water on you? So what? Laugh it off and take playful-seeming revenge on them. If he/ she gets angry, laugh at them for getting angry. "Pussy" is a good, strong word that may be used in this instance.

2. Keep your bros with you. Not only will this deter an asshole from being all asshole-ish around you, if he/she does decide to be an asshole to you, you got back up. In an instance where this person is being particularly asshole-ish, Rule 1 still applies. Remember, keep it chill.

4. Use your brain. It is a well known fact that douchebags are almost always low on the intelligence scale. Their victims are usually the opposite. Be clever, be creative, be ruthless.

5. Don't be afraid to cross over to the darkside. Sometimes, to deafeat an asshole you need to be an asshole. You may question this thinking: Then what's the difference between him and me? Well I'll tell you! You know the difference between being an asshole and being a decent human being and are aware when you are being the former. Only do this temporarily though, for you may be converted completely if you sustain asshole mode for too long.


Now go and win glorious honor for decent human beings everywhere!

I have never given him a reason to do that? and his comment was so mean. He deserved more than a tomato slice. He deserved at least a heavy potato...or maybe a piano

There were people who jokingly did stuff like that in my high school... I even tried a fake girlfriend to get people off my back. I just didn't want a relationship.

I always hated some kids in the class above us (nicknamed the "Stoner Class") in my AP Chem class. Sometimes they'd throw paper balls filled with disturbing pictures and other stuff... it sucked.

Just wait until college, then you're like exempt because no one cares about that bulling shit anymore.

^haha, would be pretty funny.

Omg. Can't believe how memes are now a "trend" on facebook. Basically everyone makes random memes about stuff that happens at school. They're fucking boring, they aren't even used properly (people definitely don't understand how the College Liberal one is supposed to work...) and they're everywhere in my news feed.
Bitches don't try to make funny memes when you don't even know how it works. It makes me want to punch a thousand babies.

Yay, monitor went kaboom. Now to find a new one.

Friend could sell me a 28" ViewSonic for 100€, but can't really fit a monitor that big anywhere. Can't really be bothered to search for monitor reviews, but I honestly have no idea where to find a decent monitor for student-budget.

Everything is scrub tier besides Samsung.  Get one of the 21.5", they're reasonable.  Though if you're used to a 28 (wtf) then I guess it would be a big change.

This. It's the perfect viewing size. When looking at iMacs, i took the 21.5" because the 27 was way too big and just plain was more expensive.
The ones I can find on Amazon are between EUR 149,99 and EUR 180,00

I was a cashier for a little bit today.... And I dropped my entire drawer.

All my change went flying. :|

Pretty embarrassing.

But at the end of the day my total was 5 cents over. Supposed to be $2,344.77, but I was at $2,344.82

Made a bet with my boss after I dropped it that if it was even, he'd owe me $5 and if it was under (cause of the spill) I'd give him $5. But it was over, so we decided to keep our money xD

Typically, yes. However, my French professor believes that if you attempt the extra credit, we should assume the risk.

We had to describe 13/17 things he gave us, so the test was 13/13, however if we answer 15 problems and get them all right, we get a 15/13 and say if we are like me and miss 5.5 questions, I get a 9.5/15

So now I have to make sure my papers (hint, hint Roz) are grammatically correct so I can boost my grade up to a B

(like 2 of them actually had a reason, sortof...). So I tell them I'm not staying late and they get mad at me? I'm sorry that I don't want to do all of the work while SIX of you stand around, passing around the same old crap-"Maaaan, I wanna go home!" or "I don't wanna work today". Have fun without me.

They have one of those stores here (not whole foods). It's filled with hippies and health food nuts... and vegans. Ironically, it has one of the best meat butchers in SLO. That's where I get my soup chicken!
But seriously, their apples there are like $1.19 each and look a bit questionable and the ones at Trader Joes are $0.59 each and are delicious! (I'll go eat an apple right now!)

, we get one avocado for $1.29   One apple for $0.89.  Nuts are pretty delicious, especially pistachios (and walnuts). 

A lot of the food in our farmer's market doesn't look very fresh, but it depends on who's selling it.  At least we get samples.

Worms are hardly anything. Just wait until you do some real dissections, that's where the fun is. Although then again, that's just me.

^Yeah, we're going to do the pig for sure.

We also dissected a squid today, but I think it was the worm being alive that just made everyone horrified. Also I pinned down both ends of the worm but the top end was struggling so much against the other nail that it just ripped its own tail off. It didn't even die after I cut it down the middle -.-

The tail later started to regenerate by growing a head on the severed end. If I had expected that, I would have looked at it under the microscope...

Today, in class, my boyfriend decided that he wanted to play Pokémon instead of listening to what the teacher had to say, so he played Pokémon Online. He was commenting all of his games, saying stuff like "yeeeeesssss", "OMG did you see what I just did? Pro!" and "wtf this guy's a douche", depending on what was happening. He also asked me questions about the game (I was right next to him), so I answered them, not too loudly though because the lady in front of us was annoyed by his commentaries. (I do understand her, it was definitely annoying to hear them while listening to the teacher.) So he asked me yet another question, and right when I'm done answering it, he looks at me and says : "I think you should shut the fuck up, you're annoying students who are actually listening to what the teacher is saying." Approximately 30 seconds after that, he asks me another question.
WHAT.
THE.
FUCKING.
FUCK.
The jerk was annoyed because I didn't want to answer his fucking questions anymore. He had been talking to himself for 2 hours because of that fucking game, and I'm the one who needs to shut up because I'm being annoying? Seriously, fuck you. I'm fucking pissed right now.

Yesterday, we were talking about customs in Senegal and that was one of them. It was literally in the book we are reading, so he explained it in more detail.

We're not learning to speak French, we're learning to critically analyze French texts.

If he doesn't see you're a great person, that's still his bad. Of course I can understand it really sucks, try not to think about it too much and just have a great time yourself with friends of yours =)

In fact, it's pretty much harmless to post the google voice number publicly.

In fact, I just removed the option where it forwards anything to my phone temporarily just to see how it goes.

edit: I can't even call my own google voice number; not with my home phone at least.

Took me two hours to figure out how to change the tempo of a song in Finale today.

(it would only do one measure)

Regardless... I guess I learned a lot.

Though I'm an updater, I manage to do it all without using Finale for any purpose other than viewing sheets, I just look at every sheet, and write up reports so others can fix it. It never occurred to me that I so infrequently actually use the program... I'd think I would know even a little. XD

SO YEAH. Cool song posted. and I'm not going to get any sleep at all for work -.-

You use the expression tool, create a new expression. Type what you want it to say, then click on the other tab and choose "tempo", and set the quarter notes per minute to whatever number. It's not hard once you know how. You can also use the tempo tool, but that isn't as efficient.

Quote from: ETFROXX on March 14, 2012, 12:38:33 PMSo I finally start thinking 'hay I'll go to prom!' *tells friends* 'OH WE'RE GOING IN A LIMO WITH A HUGE GROUP OF FRIENDS LET'S ASK THE CHICK THAT GOT IT IF YOU CAN COME. HAY CHELSEA CAN SHE COME.'

'maybe.'

If I can't fucking go in the limo with my friends I'm not going. It's not because it's a limo it's because I'd only be going to hang out with my friends and I'm not going to fucking say 'ok ill meet you there'.

I HATE being excluded by people you would never exclude. It's my least favorite thing in the world.

ETFROXX, you're looking at this the wrong way.  When you look back on high school memories, will it really matter if you went in a limo, or got prom queen, or something else like that?  Probly not.  These are trivial things in the long run, and trust me, trying to get into their group after its been planed won't end well for you.  Find people you know you can have fun with(and won't start drama) and go with them,you will enjoy yourself much more.

But what do I know?

I know. Did you not read my whole post? The whole reason I'm upset is because I don't have a date and I'm not going to fucking 'meet' my friends at prom while they're all out having a good time at their pre-dinner. The only reason I want to go is to hang out with them. I'm not going to fucking drive to prom by myself.

I think you're looking at this the wrong way Sheikah. Considering these are the friends she mentioned first, it's the close knit circle of friends. If you don't have a date I think you'd want to be with your best friends rather than people you don't know as well. Besides, just going by yourself to meet people there would probably make you feel more like an outcast.

So there I was, just readin' my Bible, and then...

Actually I was playing SSBB and got this message:

"Error: The disc could not be read. Please refer to your Wii Instructions Manual for details"

I've had this happen with two discs so far, one of them brand(ish) new. Anyone else had this happen? Is cleaning the disks really going to solve this? Cause google is acting like this is the first sign of an imminent Wii death :(

I actually had the exact same problem and just yesterday got my Wii back from repair.  As it turns out, the disk drive mechanism has probly gone bad.  And Olimar is right, they fixed mine for free because they said I was  "loyal customer", which I am.  When they say the cost will be $85, subtly act like you can't pay that much, they are suckers desperate very willing to keep us in their business.  Hope this helps a bit.

P.S. Gamecube games should still work.

I am so sick of how materialistic people in the world are these days. We idolize assholes who have more than us and pity those who can't afford what we have. The majority of people in the world lead unhappy lives where the slave away 9 hours of the day at some bullshit job so they can buys things. Because if they have things they can stuff it into the gaping hole they have in their lives. Because the latest and greatest piece of shit is all they need to make them happy. But wait, a new one just came out! Well, I'd better buy that piece of shit as well, because then I'll REALLY be happy. And we buy. And buy. And buy. And fill our homes with piles and piles of plastic and garbage, trying to satisfy our desire. But we never will. And the landfills will overflow with yesterday's shit we thought would make us happy, and the garbage men scramble to make room, awaiting tomorrow's shit that we've yet to buy in hopes that it will make us happy, but in the end throw away.

And the men who have everything still need more. And in order to get it, the play those below them like puppets. They tell us the we look ugly and we need to buy this to be beautiful, or that we're fat and we need this to be thin and so on. And we believe them. We buy what they want us to buy so that we can make a futile attempt at satisfying ourselves, and in turn we give them the means to try and satisfy themselves. But whether it be a millionaire or someone barely making ends meet, they still crave for more.

But they're lives are equally empty, though rich man's is most likely more so. We've been so blinded by our culture into believing that we need things to make us happy and for others to appreciate us that we've forgotten the beauty of the world and life. Love, hope, freedom: all these things have been lost to desire and greed. And we will never be free until we Stop.

Yep. It's true. It's the media that feeds us with these sorts of desires. I mean, we'll always want. It's just natural. And capitalism runs on it. But I hate the idea that other people are able to influence so many suckers into thinking they need the next best thing. Eventually it becomes a chronic desire rather than a wish for the next thing.

Bf is mad 'cause I said he's not that great of a singer. I was listening to metal music (I love that kind of music) and he kept saying that the singer sucked just because he doesn't like how he sings. I told him he should be more open-minded and that anyways the singer had way more talent than he has (which is true) and now he won't talk to me. Dude, it's not like you're a professional singer or anything. And stop bashing one of my favorite kind of music damnit. >_>

OMG people are so fucking retarded. I had to go buy some food at the supermarket yesterday, so my bf and I borrowed his roommate's car.
There is a traffic light with 2 tracks : you can turn left or continue straight ahead on the left track, and you can only turn right on the right track. The light's red, so we're chilling in the left track. When it turns green, however, some dumbass in the right track decides to cut us off 'cause he was going to the supermarket too. He was in the wrong track, my bf says he probably didn't see the road sign. We arrive at the supermarket, and we're not even out of the car that the guy starts insulting us, saying that if we'd hit him he would've fucking beaten us. My bf politely explains to the douchebag how the tracks work there, but the guy is fucking pissed and continues insulting us, saying that my bf looks gay and stuff like that. Some other douchebag appears, he tells us to fucking shut the fuck up (ya, they were swearing a lot... >_>) because he'd punch us in the face. My bf was fucking pissed, but I was kinda laughing. Then at some point one of them says "Yo, I just got out of the hospital because I had to get some surgery, so don't piss me off" to which I replied "dude, they should've sent you to the psychiatry department, you fucking need it". The guy looked pretty insulted and he left with his friend. Gawd. I hate living in the city. D:

Cookie cutter response much?

I know that feel Dude. My great-grandmother was in the hospital a while a for a broken hip and arm. Since she wasn't going to heal well and was really old (99), she wasn't a candidate for surgery at all. The only thing they did was stick pins in her hip and has to go through physical therapy to set it back in place.
She also has dimentia which started before her fall, but going to visit her in the nursing home OSS worse because she doesn't really recognize you at all so its really awkward and there's not much to talk about.

This is where it cant read dual layer discs right

I would do some research online to see if it's something you can fix yourself.  Either that or pester them more as it's a defect and not something that wears out over time..

EDIT: The repair should be free: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/repair/dld_repair_home.jsp?problem=DLDDISCERROR&gameCode=SSBB

There are also cleaning discs you can get, but those apparently are not permanent solutions.

Then again it could be for a different issue... but I thought I saw you post about this earlier.

At this point you would have to pay more than 1/4 of the cost of a new console, so it's really quite silly.  And yea, warranty is out so it really doesn't matter what you do now if they refuse to give you a free repair :P  You could also try and look for a local shop that does repairs.

I had an English class this morning. I couldn't attend it though, because some retards who are on strike decided they did not want us to attend it. A lot of students are on strike now because the government wants to raise the tuition fees by 75%. We're not on strike though, so what they did was illegal. We tried telling them that we voted against the strike, so they had no right to disturb our class, but the guy leading the students who were there didn't want to hear a thing, and he treated us like shit because we didn't have the same opinion as him. One of my friends told him that she didn't mind about the raise, and he bitched her out. Right after that, he told us to respect his opinion even though it was different than "ours". Are you fucking kidding me? You tell us we're fucking retards for not being on strike, and you want us to be kind with you? Awww, they're right, it's going to cost a lot in the future, what the fuck are we thinking? We should go on strike too! >_>
I am against that raise, but my association voted against the strike. I'm not mad about that though, because I don't think the strike's the best way to go against the government. But fuck, don't bitch us out for attending our classes. If they're back next week, they're fucking going to have to deal with us. Everyone in our class was pissed off.

^We're having similar problems... not with the strike.

The state is cutting back our funding and we are having to pay a higher percentage. I think it was last year that students officially contributed more than the state... it used to be around $750 a quarter 10 years ago, now it's $2660 a quarter.

Then the President of the University proposed a "student success fee" to raise another 9 billion dollars over the next 3 years, so all of next year we have a $270 quarterly increase because of this. We all had to vote on it and many people did end up voting yes on it. Because if not, classes would be cut, class sizes would increase (in certain cases) and some departmental programs would disappear. Fuck all this, our entire state has no fucking clue how to do anything right.

Yeah, it sucks. We're lucky here, because tuition fees are not high compared to the rest of North America... but as a society, we decided that we wanted low tuition fees so that people who want to go to university can go. However, our government wants to raise them because of the fact that they're lower than the US/the other provinces' ones. It just doesn't make sense. Our values are totally different from the RoC, as seen during the federal elections last year. They're going to raise them, and then people from the middle class a.k.a the huge majority of the population won't be able to study there anymore. It's easy to say "lolz just work and save your money to pay for it" but that's what a lot of students are already doing. Oh, and they're going to use the money to give bigger scholarships to people, but in reality only 5% receive scholarship from the government, and this 5% = the poor. Basically the middle class is going to pay more so the poor people can go to school; however in doing so the middle class won't be able to afford it anymore. Makes perfect sense. And anyways the universities here can't seem to use their funds properly... they're mostly given to the superintendents 'cause you know, they somehow deserve a big paycheck... and they do so while our universities are literally falling into ruins. So yeah. It sucks. I understand why the students are on strike. I'm against that raise myself, but not every student's on strike, so let them attend their classes for god's sake.

Our teachers were just on strike asking for higher wages as well. Man, Canada's education system is not looking fantastic right now.

The students staged a walkout, as well... just to get the strike to end more quickly. >_> At least they didn't force everyone into it.

Our universities are already in the shitter here in California. Here in the US, most of the education is financed by the state governments, who receive educational funding from the federal government for those who submit the FAFSA and other stuff... personally, I am against the DoE... it just has too much waste attached to it and it should be up to the state governments. However, here, with California seeping money to many corrupt people and other leeches on the system, we can't put education or economic growth ahead of us, rather coming to disagreements over a fucking budget... the California Assembly still hasn't agreed to a budget in more than one year. Politics here are so fucking polarized it really sucks... we need to go back to the Clinton era when bipartisanship was encouraged and put into practice. I am so glad that I am graduating next year so I don't have to worry about this fucking problem... tuition fees are increasing rapidly and the student success fee here will just increase that even more. We may break $10,000 in total fees paid next year. That's a new high for a CSU (UCs may break $20,000 for IN-STATE). I'm just fucking done.

In all seriousness though, they're not that high here. They're ~1500$ per session, but with the raise they're going to be ~3200$ per session. The government doesn't even want to talk to the students, they're just going to raise the goddamn fees. Actually this morning the government said that it'd talk to the students, but only if they forget about free education and the freezing of the tuition fees. It sucks. The government decided to lower the big companies' taxes, which resulted in a 2 billion funds loss, so now the middle class has to pay for said loss. Free education would cost something like 700 000$. They could potentially have the money to pay for it, they just don't seem to know how to use it properly. u_u
Also Finland has one of the best school system on the planet and I really think that we should look at it and learn from it. You're lucky.

Quote from: Roz~ on March 29, 2012, 10:01:16 AMRoz's Thing
That's generally what conservatives do... they lower taxes so that many of the programs that the government funds will be eventually transitioned into private industry. I don't know Canada's financial situation, but in a country that is in the population range of Canada, the government can control things the social programs that they have in effect, contrary to the US's population size and massive loopholes both in social programs and in taxation purposes. Conservatives don't want to have a large government interfering in everything that they do with the support (prime example being Sweden). There are many people who just don't want to see their money going to other things they don't want, and that's a major flaw in the tax system. If only taxpayers could elect where their funding goes... However, education costs are rising due to the normal course of inflation and that's inevitable, however Californians rely heavily on state funding for education to keep tuition costs low. I'm not sure if I said this, but last year was the first year here that students paid more than the state for funding. However, corporations, they need tax cuts to give them more money to help get their businesses back on track, however many of them are unscrupulous with that money. If only APPL could use their $100b in cash to do something (well, they're paying out dividends in Q4). All I can think now is that we need tax reform and better fiscal management.

Also, in the news today. The House passed a bill shrinking the 6 tax brackets down to 2, capping at 25%. No more 28% and 35%. I think it's stupid at this time to do that, but once we begin progress toward debt and deficit reduction and there is less money leaving, then tax rates should shrink.

Getting a degree in music is fine and dandy, as long as you make sure you've got a backup plan. Pursuing something involving music that has a higher demand in the job market is also a good option, because you'd be studying music and actually be able to get a job in something that not straight up performing/composing/teaching.

That's still cheap on the national scale.

CSUs are about $2100, CP is $2700 a quarter.

I'm like that every morning when I walk outside, because everything inside has been dark. When you're in dark places for a long period of time, it takes a while to adjust... about 5 minutes for me. And I was wearing sunglasses this morning..

In other news...

I was listening to my professor in my Business & Society course about how there will be a teacher's union vote in about 2 weeks to strike or not. Over the past 8 years, student costs have been rising at higher rates than in the past and professors wanted to help out by taking minimal paycuts or freezes while the funding gets back on track... however, over those years, other "college administrators" have been taking record pay INCREASES, and therefore the professors are fucking pissed... especially with the nice pay package they gave to our new university president last year (290k Salary, State Paid: Car, House, Food, SPENDING UP TO $1000 A MONTH, on-campus purchases and other benefits given to normal state employees). The UC system is the worst, having 39 of the top 50 paid state employees in Education in the State (the highest being Cal's Football Coach at $2 million). The state is in financial trouble and they need to realize those fucking administrators are using STATE FUNDs for overly inflated salaries... Corporate CEOs have limitations, higher up state employees should too...

So he starts playing, and immediately I realize he's using the guidebook for the whooole thing. Turns out he had never beaten the game before. So of course I tell him that it's more fun without it cause you get to solve the puzzles and stuff. He tells me he's bad at puzzles and I blew it off.

Then it happened.

He sucks. So much xD We're good pals so of course I harassed him a lot. He would forget how to simply look up after doing it 2 minutes earlier, or not realize you have to shoot the eyes on a giant octorok, or see the giant rock in the Earth Temple (with all the notes on it) and not realize you have to use the Wind Waker, or set a bomb and not think to move out of the way. Some of the problem-solving skills just don't come natural to him lol.

^Here we are extremely screwed because of class cuts and large student populations.

I took a priority this quarter and I still didn't get one of the classes I need. One of my accounting classes filled up... they never usually fill up at our level. I only need 11 more classes to graduate. So I can have some leeway next year with one quarter, but still... ugh...

Also,
our Wind Bands are going on tour to Ireland, Scotland and England next summer... and I could go if only I didn't have to be doing an internship... IT REALLY SUCKS. I've always wanted to go to Ireland.

I agree. I try and get by doing lots of things so I don't have to think about relationships. I don't have the time, money or energy to do one.

Go do something worthwhile: Learn a new instrument, learn a new language, go jogging, try making soup... the possibilities are endless. (And bribing girls with baked goods never works... they like the fact you made it, but they only like the fact itself rather than the creator... sigh)

It's really awesome if you like the Escape the Room flash games. It's essentially a visual novel too, about 9 people who are kidnapped and taken onto a ship where they have 9 hours to escape by solving the puzzles in the rooms (The Nonary Game) to find the door with a 9 painted on it. Kinda like a combination between Saw and Prof. Layton. It has a really interesting plot with several different endings. (Currently working towards the safe ending.)

Oh, and people die too. A lot.

There should be an online demo floating out there on the web hosted by the developers which lets you play the first room and get some plot that is cut out of the finished game.

Hahah XD I didn't even notice that at first...

So anyway there was a spill on lab on Tuesday where the student didn't use the separatory funnel properly and the stopper shot off. The lab instructor had headphones on and I found out when the students came to me in the office asking what they should do to clean up and treat the burn...well today I'm doing the lab with the same lab instructor. This time she tells everyone NOT to use a stopper. Which might have been okay if we had not needed to invert the funnel to mix the solution -.- When I asked her about it, she said she trusted me to use the stopper correctly but everyone else had to use their fingers to stop the funnel. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? The solution caused a burn last time...

Well anyway I went around with the stoppers and gave them to the groups/gave instructions on how to use them. Just because I can.

I go to a public university (well, it's about 40% run by the government, the rest is student funded. And my campus is fairly moderate politically, though there are polar sides here... but it could be far worse... like Berkeley) where we can openly pray. The two largest student clubs on campus here are Christian clubs.

You should really choose a school that offers you the best education rather than being a certain political side or religious side or something else.
It's open house here and there are a crapload of people visiting, disrupting my daily schedule by making me wait in line at Starbucks for 30 minutes... ALMOST missing my class. Seriously, there should be a line for students needing to get to class!

Thank God I will be a shut in this weekend trying to study for my midterms next week.

Your statement is really offensive. As far as I know there are no public schools that would have problems with anyone praying. People just aren't allowed to force others to pray. If you haven't been to a public school, why are you judging public schools?

If you're going to a school with other like-minded students why do you need a gun? Schools are supposed to be safe environments.

Quote from: Ruto on April 13, 2012, 02:16:37 PMYour statement is really offensive. As far as I know there are no public schools that would have problems with anyone praying. People just aren't allowed to force others to pray. If you haven't been to a public school, why are you judging public schools?

If you're going to a school with other like-minded students why do you need a gun? Schools are supposed to be safe environments.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone, however, I will not change my statement. There have been cases where a school is prosecuted because it allows a time for meditation and prayer, believe me, I have read about cases like this going to the Supreme Court.
It is true that I do not go to a public school, however, my brother did; and he told some very bad stories about his experience.

In answer to your other question, the right to bear arms is a very important issue to me, and even though I am going to a school that is "like-minded" does not mean that the students are. Evil is everywhere, and I want to be able to defend myself. Plus, whoever said that a school was a safe environment. ???

Okay, what are the cases?

Public school's not for everyone, and sure, you can get bad experiences, like from everything else in life. But just because it was bad for one person, it doesn't mean you should make the assumption it's ALL bad. I'm sure public school is going to be different even in the same country.

QuoteIn answer to your other question, the right to bear arms is a very important issue to me, and even though I am going to a school that is "like-minded" does not mean that the students are. Evil is everywhere, and I want to be able to defend myself.

That sounds a bit paranoid? I know people have to be able to defend themselves but you can kill people with guns or have the guns fall into the wrong hands (which is common also). If you're choosing that school for its conservative, Christian leanings, certainly the students that make up the school are like-minded.

QuoteI do not mean to be offensive, I am just stating my opinion as the First Amendment allows me to do so.

Stating your opinion is one thing, but there is no need to offend anyone at all. I've been taught that offensive and emotionally charged statements in a courtroom from lawyers often don't hold up well in cases.

The first amendment does not apply on forums, nor does it on school campus, as any person who has done even the most basic research into law would tell you.

You cant just be a dick with your little conservative superiority complex and get away with it unfortunately.

I think you need to learn a little bit about the real world before spouting such hilarious claims anyway.  RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION BY THE EVIL GOVERNMENT huh...

I'm pretty sure most people wouldn't want to go to a school where there are hicks all over the place with guns, but that's just my impression of every reasonable person I've met ever.

The case is called Wallace v. Jaffree I invite you to read it.

Also, my Christian beleifs teaches me that all people are inherently evil, meaning we are all given more to evil than to good. Please don't misunderstand what I am saying. I did not say that school was all bad, just that government funded colleges are under the influence of the gov, which is never a good thing. ;)

And, like I said, there are a lot of students that go to Liberty who aren't "like-minded".

Quote from: ChrisLeeFan1118 on April 13, 2012, 03:22:31 PMThe case is called Wallace v. Jaffree I invite you to read it.

I have, and the case is about how the Alabama schools have a law that's unconstitutional because it forced all students to engage in prayer (violating separation of church and state). The government never ruled that no one can pray, it just ruled that the school can't force everyone to pray. Prayer is supposed to be personal, there is absolutely no need to do it in public to make yourself seem holier than others. Ever heard of the parable of the Pharisee and tax collector? Of course you have.

QuoteAlso, my Christian beliefs (sorry, but I am getting a bit irritated for lack of spell check) teaches me that all people are inherently evil, meaning we are all given more to evil than to good. Please don't misunderstand what I am saying. I did not say that school was all bad, just that government funded colleges are under the influence of the gov, which is never a good thing. ;)

As for the good and evil, that's your opinion. Have you taken Philosophy 101? It will help you a lot. I can share a few readings if you like. St. Augustine makes one argument but there many (such as Socrates) that make an entirely different one.

If you think the government is so bad 1) do you think you can you do better? 2) why would you even want to defend and interpret its laws? 3) why do you pay taxes?

Nearly every college in America is funded in some way by the government, even the private ones. They've contributed more to humanity than any other institution. Not too shabby?

QuoteAnd as for your last question, I'm am not trying to offend anyone as I have previously stated. It is your decision whether or not to be offended.

Can you honestly say that what you've said is not offensive to anyone?

QuoteI am a tolerant person, but one who states his beliefs.

Tolerant except to liberals.

Btw, Limbaugh is a poor choice to learn about impartial law.

Quote from: ChrisLeeFan1118 on April 13, 2012, 03:22:31 PMAlso, my Christian beleifs teaches me that all people are inherently evil, meaning we are all given more to evil than to good.

I think I know what you're getting at, but I wouldn't word it like that, "good" and "evil" are too general terms. 

All people have, to varying degrees, a desire to do things for their own benefit, and it sometimes comes out as greed. I think that's what you were trying to imply by "evil." Most people have kindness, and that alone makes them not evil and instead just self-preservative in certain situations. 

Imo evil is more of a term for people who have no regard whatsoever to others, and are unnecessarily cruel and show no kindness at all, maybe like Hitler. 
Quote from: ChrisLeeFan1118 on April 13, 2012, 03:22:31 PMgovernment funded colleges are under the influence of the gov, which is never a good thing. ;)
I don't have anything to add on to Ruto's argument, but I just wanted to say, you should never say something is "never a good thing."  For example, someone could say falling off a horse is never a good thing.  But what if, you fall off a horse and break your leg, then the government starts drafting people into the army?  Then it would be a good thing, because they don't draft injured people, and (even uninjured)there's a high chance you would die if you were in a battle. 

And, like I said, there are a lot of students that go to Liberty who aren't "like-minded".

You really should know better. I mean you're apparently going into law school... Kefka is right.

First Amendment rights is a guarantee by the Federal government in FEDERAL GOVERNMENT matters... in businesses and the internet -- they can do whatever they want for the most part... If a company tells you to remove a shirt that says something offensive, they can tell you to remove it and if you don't, you can get fired. Just because you have a right to say whatever you want, doesn't mean it is right (prime example being hate speech). Prayer is protected by the 1st Amendment, but the right not to pray is also guaranteed by the 1st amendment. That's what Wallace v. Jaffree was about. It is one of the main principles of this country: not to shove religion or no religion down other people's throats. It is up to us to believe what we want to. It's not my fault that many members of the party I belong to believe that (I hate how politics are ruining this country). Places like the internet (and this forum) are governed by the rules of the specific site and NOT by the Constitution.

My Christian beliefs tell me to treat others like myself, living a life with integrity and morality/ethics. We need to strive to do good because it is human nature to do bad, but others can get past that and strive for fairness and all that other ethical stuff (I quote Kohlberg... We need to strive to attain Stage 6).

This all needs to stop... seriously. We don't need to get more threads locked or many of us banned.

Okay so we're still in Toronto (my friend, my bf and me) and today was the day we were playing pokémon. We told my friend that it shouldn't be too long and she said she'd wait for us at the convention centre. The tournament lasted for ~2 hours, something like 11 am to 1 pm. We noticed she had left and we were pretty upset, 'cause she wasn't replying to our text messages. 5 minutes before the tourney ended, she sent a text message to my bf saying she was gonna go eat. He then tells her that the tourney's over and that we wanted to go eat with her, but she never replied to us. We had to walk around all afternoon in a city we don't know to find her to get our hotel's keys back. She was at a museum, and she apparently is mad because we "abandoned" her today. Goddamn, she's the one who left without saying anything and we're the bad guys? Besides, she knew we were coming here to play. And fuck, it only lasted for 2 hours. Had she waited 5 minutes more we would've all eaten together and we would've visited the fucking museum like we were supposed to. Ugh. Can't wait to be in Quebec City.

I don't even...

...dafuq? :o

Anyway, since my birthday was yesterday, when I was back at school today my "best friend" Rashid tried telling everyone yesterday was my birthday, but everyone's like, "NO ONE GIVES A SHIT."

...wait, that's like how every day is.

The substitute teacher I had for science class today just... ruined my life.

So, we didn't really review the stuff we learned for our tests next week with him, instead he started talking about stuff like the Earth's population, contact with aliens, reproduction, etc.  "You're all getting to the age where you can start producing kids."  And then he starts talking about stuff like how "we can take HIS sperm" (while pointing at one of the guys in the class) and "HER eggs" (also pointing at another girl) "and then we can do one of several things with them".  He started saying stuff about how you could put them in a dish and put the embryos back inside the girl or something (dafuq), and then he starts going around pointing at different guys and girls saying "YOUR sperm" and "YOUR eggs" and everything.  Then, he walks in front of me and points at the girl behind me, saying "YOUR eggs" and points at me saying "YOUR sperm".  Instantly the class starts laughing SOOOOOO loud, and then I realize he pointed at my friend who I have (since the fourth grade) a crush on, Emma (https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/320606_10150347518719683_821439682_7910638_1012166534_n.jpg).  Everyone's all like, "THAT WAS SO PERFECT, LOL," and other similar stuff.

Since Emma and I have our last class together, and we both leave school through the same gate, she ignored me the whole time because she said she didn't want to look at me anymore.

...hopefully she won't be an ass to me tomorrow?

Don't think the substitute's supposed to make references like that to the students. At most, using only yourself as the example is appropriate...

You should report the guy if it bothers you, there's just so many things you can't do in middle school or high school xD I remember a substitute teacher in my sister's class getting fired because he put his hand on some girl's shoulder.

So, uh, my normal teacher was back today for science, and we all told him why we hated him.  We said he started talking about random stuff like aliens, "breeding", population (stuff I think I mentioned in my previous post), he started talking about "Rony's and Hannah's sperm and eggs", and most importantly, we were supposed to watch MythBusters instead of listen to his crap.

Teacher says that guy is never coming back to our class, ever again.

Omg today our substitute for english never showed up. Twas fantastic. We got through the lesson working together as a class (it was on the board) and then turned the desks around and moved them to the opposite side of the room and just walked out when the bell rang. We prolly should've called the office or something but it was such a great class. And we got through our lesson in a great way, we all had a discussion about it.

Weirdest, best, most bizarre, and most hilarious class I've ever had in my life.

Oh and she can't complain about the desks. Cause she forgot about her class. So.

Well, she was acting nice-ish to me today. But she never ceases to be stupid.  :-\

Toward the end of the day, I was just standing near her when she says, "ANDREW, STOP STANDING BEHIND ME," since she's always afraid that I'll stare at her ass or something. But when my friend Rashid just, I'm not even joking, shoves his face in her ass, saying, "YEEEEEAAAAAAAH," she just says, "Oh, please stop." She told me it's because I like her, or as she says it, I'm "obsessed with" her.

...does that even make sense? What do I do?

EDIT: She usually never seems to mind what anyone does unless it's me. Like, for example, Rashid says he wants Emma to take a picture of her "retarded pussy" (meaning her cat whose name is Retard) and send it to him, and all she does is just look at him with a disgusted face. But if I STAND NEAR HER WITHOUT HER PERMISSION, she yells at me.

This is not good advice. Don't admit your love for her unless you are fairly certain she might like you. Because if she doesn't feel the same, the very best thing that could happen is she'll awkwardly say "Well, thanks, buddy" or something and things will be forever awkward, and the worst is she never talks to you again.

...oh and "stop at nothing until you get a yes" is never a good strategy unless you happen to live in a romantic comedy

Sadly, this is beyond truth.  I've had the "never talks to you again" thing happen before, not fun.  The only thing I can suggest that might help (it got a girl to at least like me), is forget about 'em, and just be yourself.  "If you love something, set it free.  If it comes back, it's yours." (or something like that).  Don't take this literally though, I mean don't go out of your way to get them to like you, just act like yourself.  Just a thought.

And relationships from high school are one of the worst predictors for love/long term. I think 15% of people who marry high school sweethearts are happy, the rest all end up in divorce.

If your self-worth is tied to your relationship status then you need to re-evaluate yourself and what you want to get out of life. I'm not saying don't date, it's a healthy part of developing your sexual identity, I'm saying that dating shouldn't be the only thing you do while in school. It certainly shouldn't be omni-important like some of you like to think it is, at least that's how you portray it.

^Agreed. I could also bring up that creepy guy that Concerto helped me deal with a while back -.- It's actually a bit disturbing. Whereas I went to the same school as that guy for about 2 years and I'm not like that at all. I have to credit myself for being so oblivious and happy enough with the books, paint, telescope, band saw and computer lying around.

>__>

I guess that "making the nerds feel bad" thing was just a typical douchebag reaction. I remember this girl in my class that was like that...she just had problems with everything I did. One of the things she kept getting all mad at me for was being able to talk normally to guys instead of being all stupid and flirty. I think she thought I was being flirty?

Well this is sad news.

I was doing my normal daily glance of financial news and one of the headlines that came across on BusinessWire was this one

Chicago Tribune (http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/breaking/chi-stung-by-smartphones-nintendo-set-to-report-firstever-operating-loss-20120425,0,7781797.story?)

Nintendo is going to be reporting its annual earnings (well, about now at the time of this writing [or a few hours ago]).

Nintendo will be reporting it's first ever quarterly loss on it's income statement since... ever (apparently). I can't believe that Nintendo is in this situation as a fan, but as someone who is in the know about financial news, this is something that was inevitable. I really hope that their next annual report will at least be in the black.

I'll look around for Nintendo's quarterly report as it surfaces on the internet and I will get back to everything.

From what it looks like, no.

And they have made some shitty decisions... seriously, the tablet idea for the Wii U was an... idea. It should've stayed in the R&D lab.

The problem is that game companies are shifting from the normal platforms and switching to smartphone OS's to release contento on them. Hell, the PS Vita is running Android.

Nintendo can no longer sell bulky, unattractive things with shitty computing power in this day-and-age. (Well, my 3DS is kinda pretty). Nintendo needs to compete with what people want if they want to stay in business...

AND WTF!! Why in hell are they paying a freaking dividend!

Here is a link to Nintendo's Annual Report 2011 (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47236506/Nintendo%20Annual%20Report%202011.pdf)

They reported a Net Loss of about $532,000. You guys should explore the rest. If you need help reading an annual report, you know how to find me or you can google it (this one is a bit easier than the usual form 10-K that US companies have to file with the SEC)

Just got back from work. My boss is an asshole.
Some girl's on vacation this week, and they told me I was going to replace her. There was one huge problem though : I'd never done her job once. Actually I did do it once 2 years ago, so I didn't remember anything of the things I was supposed to do. My boss said it'd be okay. Yeah right. Today, he told EVERY single employee that I really sucked and that I definitely need "coaching". He never told me about that, I overheard it. He was pretty loud, probably hoped that I'd hear it. So yeah, he told everyone I'm a shitty employee. You know I can only work as a cashier you dumbfuck, why did you make me work at the meat/butcher place? I'm so fucking pissed out. He did the exact same thing with another employee too; he told everyone that she sucked hard and that he'd talk to her about it. Everyone knew my boss was supposed to talk to her, except the girl he thought sucked. He never did talk to her though, he's too much of a pussy. He never does his job right, when he thinks something isn't right with an employee, he asks someone to go talk to them. So basically someone is going to tell me that I need "coaching". What the fuck. You're supposedly our boss, grow some fucking balls you retard. Also fuck you, I always do my best when I work, even when I don't even know what I'm supposed to do. Apparently someone's supposed to have some training before they work in a certain department. I've never had any and you make me work everywhere, so don't complain if I can't do the job right, I don't even know what the fuck I'm supposed to do. Not my fault if you're too cheap and don't want to train your employees. -____-

I know. At first it was okay, some guy was telling me what to do, but then I heard my boss tell everyone I suck. Plus there was another girl working there and she was always yelling at me as if she was fucking mad because she had to tell me about the job. Once they did tell me a bit about the job we have to do, but they told me about the job we have to do during the weekends. It was completely useless because there's this huuuuuuuuuuuuge difference between working during the week and during the weekends. Oh and apparently my boss told my friends (a.k.a the people I'm working with during the weekends) that I suck too. What the fuck. I need to get another job. All I got for working there over 2 years is bullshit like that. -___-

And Me:

I had to give a presentation to Deloitte Consulting about incorporating Cloud Computing and Mobility into a case for a fake hotel company. It really sucked preparing for it, and it seemed they liked it... but between the 3 of us, we completely forgot to provide data for our findings... ugh... we almost had it... I'll wonder if we will win. Ill probably go to the after party for the free stuff and the food.

I just wish I didn't have too much on my mind so that I could relax for a bit... but that will never happen. I guess that I am always stressed out, even when there is nothing to do (because then I think I have something I have to do)... ugh.

It really sucks, but it was inevitable... and only two weeks away from her 94th birthday. I remember when she was back in her early 80s, so full of life and now... I guess it sucks.

Imagines thousands of people jammed together in one building, screaming at the top of their lungs while lights blind you and terrible remixes of already terrible songs are playing. Sounds kind of like hell right? Well, I have discovered a new name for hell: cheerleading.

I went to the world cheerleading thingy at Disney's Wide World of Sports because sister is on one of the teams and my parents made me go. Cheerleading is a combination of the 5000 stupidest, rudest people on the planet put into one gymnasium, making your ears bleed with their obnoxious screaming, while remixes of popular songs which sound like they were mixed by a 5-year old with GarageBand play and girls wearing skimpy outfits and clown makeup do badly choreographed dancing and flippy moves, and all the while you have the urge to shoot yourself in the face.

I always thought cheerleading was an idiotic activity(I would say sport but its not a fucking sport) but I had NO. FUCKING. IDEA.

Luckily, the weekend wasn't total waste, as I got to go to the House of Blues and see some local bands(who were quite good) play.

Someone who takes an interest in anthropomorphic animals, ranging from appreciating the art style to having a fetish for that kind of thing.

No logs, but I can summarize what happened?
First they were just talking about random stuff and when it got to the point where one of them posted a picture from his deviant art.
The description of the picture was something along the lines of "this is how I dress", referring to the crystals hanging from his character and not the dog ears. XD
And the other person was like "you dress like a furry?"

Anyways, A = furry, B = Furry hater, C = Me, this is just paraphrasing:
A: I'm sort of a TF fan
B: tf?
C: TEAM FORTRESS
C: HE'S REFERRING TO TEAM FORTRESS
B: Ah.
A: TF as in Trans Furrmation

From there it was all downhill, pretty much "You should leave", "Okay", and "Why did you invite a furry into my chatroom."

I hate dead strokes so much.  My whole percussion career has been spent with teachers telling me to always let the stick/mallet rebound, and now this stupid song is telling me the opposite, and it's so damn awkward. I'm just like, but it's supposed to rebound!

And why does this song have no mallet parts ajdfspjfss, I only get the crappy parts like the sleigh bell when that happens.

Hell, I basically learned how to play mallets and read music by myself because my teacher wanted me to be part of the front ensemble in marching band.  It's just really awkward.

Today I took my laptop to school because I needed it to work on a project. While walking to class I had it in my backpack and it was unzipped because it didn't fit in all the way, I noticed it was leaning out a lot so I stopped to turn my backpack and take it out. As I did this it fell out of my backpack and slammed onto the ground. There was a douchebag standing there and he just said 'oh that's broken now'. Then as I turned to grab it my books fell out and he just stood there and watched. My laptop now has chunks missing. I can't believe it still works.

You could say you're lucky, that your laptop still works, or you're not lucky, because now your laptop's not in good condition and you can't get a new one.

So two fridays ago, I left my phone in my World Religions class. Went back on Monday and asked the teacher "Have you found a phone in here?". Obviously some douche bag has be all douche baggy and mimic the question as they walk out the door. Seriously, its not like the question is odd or stupid or anything other than fairly bland. Anyways, she didn't find it, so I went to the front office to see if they had it in the lost in found. Nope.

So long story short, I gots a shiny new phone today that isn't a piece of garbage Pantec(worst phones ever). It's got Android so now I can have apps and shit. But I lost all my contacts in the process. So folks who I had numbers of, please send me them again so I may communicate with you.(Not like I did much anyways tho, I suppose)

My mom bitched me today because apparently all I do is spend my days sitting in front of my computer and never do anything else like go out with friends. Dear mother, you've known me for almost 20 years now, and I've been telling you for years I absolutely HATE going out with people. People I know always hang out in bars, and I fucking hate those places. I'd rather stay at home and play vidya games or watch a movie or do something I like instead of being bored out of my mind in some retarded place. And even if people were to hang out in a somewhat quiet place, I wouldn't go either because I hate hanging out with people. Dammit, why is it so hard to understand?

 Maybe she doesn't understand.  Generally, it's better to socialize rather than have entertainment alone at home.  If you can find good friends, then that's what you should do.  If you can't find good friends, then you have to tell her, and if she still doesn't listen, then you can rant. 

Maybe you've already done all this.

Actually, your mother probably does understand but thinks you're wrong or just being stupid. And my experience would tell me that she's probably right. The problem with the youth of today is that teens usually think that they're smarter than their parents, which they usually aren't.

I do have good friends, but I met them while studying in Quebec City, and since school is over we all had to head back home. We live far from each other so it's going to be hard to meet during the summer. Also the people I met in High School are all douchebags, so I never wanted to hang out with them. So yeah. I did tell her, but I guess it didn't work. Now my mom and I are just mad at each other apparently. I'm not really mad, I just wish she'd listen to what I have to say... Eh, someday I guess.

I would recommend you actually take your mom's advice Roz. I mean, you consider yourself to be an introvert, which is fine. But constant interaction with other people will most likely be a part of your career in the future. I think I remember you saying you work at a grocery store, and that's pretty similar. And what about connections? Or life-long friends? Sometimes I just tell myself "Korbin get your ass out there and be social" even though it sucks :/ I think it is possible to become a peoples person, but staying at home doesn't help it much.

Translating stuff = you don't have to interact with your clients =P
And don't worry, I do go out with friends, I just choose with whom I go out. I prefer going out with people I consider friends than with people who don't care about me. I went to almost every parties the Translation students association ( or w/e it's called) made this year, and I did have fun. But now that I'm at home, I just want to relax and do things I enjoy like playing Pokémon, reading, etc. I do understand her point, but I really don't feel like I should hang out with people I don't really like. I've read a nice sentence that sums my situation well today : Either a mother and daughter know each other very well, or they are strangers. My mom doesn't know about what I do in Quebec City, and I know for a fact that she thinks I don't go out and spend my time playing video games or reading stuff on my computer while I'm there. So yeah, I understand her point, but I don't think she understands mine.

It's all about networking and building one's network. I have to suck it up and deal with it every day, but I take thought knowing that I may get a job based on networking. It will make you who you are by who you know.
(And this is why I am on LinkedIn... it's fantastic for stuff like this. It's my professional profile -- if you are on LinkedIn, you can add me only if you intend on being professional)

Roz, you always have us on your side, no matter what! You are in control of your own life and your mother just wants to guide you into what is best fitting for you. It's up to you if you want to take that. I personally am annoyed with my mother lots of times, and she's nuts when it comes to politics and President Obama and the best thing to do is leave some space, which is exactly my cas now! Be strong and take charge!

Yes many younglings tend to think they're smarter than their elders or that they are more modern and their elders are bound to an "old-way" of thinking that doesn't apply anymore. 

The old ones aren't always right, but they have much more experience than we do, and you would do well to heed their advice UNLESS they're saying you're being too careful and worrying too much about little things. 

In short, don't follow their advice blindly, but you should also be considerate and completely understand their point of view before disagreeing.  They're much more likely to be right than we are.

Here's a counterargument (sort of) since Wikipedia is a bit skewed towards the guy's POV.

A girl will tell you that she still wants to be friends with you when breaking up.
95% of the time, they won't actually want to talk to you anymore and even if they do, it makes you look clingy to any onlookers.

I personally wouldn't care as much about the latter if the former weren't true.

The friend zone can exist without the desire for sex; the article seems to be assuming that sex is the sole purpose of the desire for a relationship, and that's not really true.

It looks pretty nice, though. It's one of the new ones (though they gave us vertical ones instead of the old horizontal ones). It feels more expensive, but I got to get it fixed (and new foto, signature and "dimensions")

13? Hmmgnfhjkgd ok here is my two cents

I don't think it's "in love". Hell, I don't even know what that feeling is. You really don't until you just wake up one day, and know you're in love with that one person. And mushy things aside, it's kinda something you don't realize building up? Like I have no experience at all, but I think truly being in love with someone is knowing you and that other person are going to be together for a very, very long time.

There's love, and in love. Maybe what you have is a strong crush or something. Trust me, you'll know real love when it actually happens.

...geez that's sappy.

I remember when I fell in love... which was never. It's a sort of emotion that has the intensity being hit by a train (or other massive object)..

I always hear wedding toasts and they always say "Love is an indescribable force. It compels to do things that we would never think of doing"

I do not think love is merely a force that compels you to make the person you're in love with happy.  It's more than that, but I cannot explain it at the moment.

Personally age isn't really important, just I'm growing hesitant to call what teenagers feel love. We all swear it's love, me included, and it hits me like a train (good use of words DrP) and I feel like I'm drowning in the beauty and poignancy of it all, but I don't know if it's what we'll look back on as love.

Post by: Raymondbl on May 08, 2012, 07:14:18 PM
Most cases of teenager/young adult romance are not really good relationships, end up bad, and then you can say it wasn't true love. They are "crushes," which are hormone-induced and may or may not be love.  Love could happen instantly, but it needs time to develop before you can be sure, since crushes also happen in varying degrees of intensity. 

Actually now I think love develops from crushes, and is just a more advanced form of it. 

AAAARGH I NEED MORE TIME TO THINK

Related story: My friend was sating this girl and they were together a lot, I frequently said they were perfect for each other(their crazy complimented each other).  But then for whatever reason(they still won't tell me), she broke up with him, at pep-band, the day before winter formal.  He wouldn't talk to any of us all weekend, but then come Monday, still mopey if you bring her up, but otherwise back to normal.  Week later, already trying to find a new girlfriend.  Now he actually has a new girlfriend, they aren't together as often, but they seem to be doing well.
From this I've learned only that the more you try to understand love, the less sense it makes. oh, that and bitches be trippin

".....FUCK."

If you have experienced this feeling while thinking about another, you may have experienced a brief wif of love.

I change my definition of love every single minute I think about it. 

Now I think love is just a primitive attraction, but that caring feelings develop with anyone you spend a sufficient amount of time with.  For example, you could not love someone, and still care for them (as in friends).  When you love someone, I think it also gives an impulse to care for them, but it won't be strong and might still be overshadowed by one's own self-preservation.   I think that's why it's always better to be friends with them. 

My own case is, we were really good friends, and she would ask advice and tell me almost everything.  When I told her I liked her, she withdrew for less than a week, then we were back to normal.  After I couldn't see her anymore, she gave me a message saying she actually liked me all along and didn't know it.  Success!

Maybe I shouldn't put this on the internet...

yes yes of course,  I know that, was just stating the extremes. However you cannot deny physical appearance plays a large role in it. Especially in middle school. You'd be more likely to like a person if they were not sexually repulsive, and even though it might not be the only factor, there are many candidates out there.  Many Middle Schoolers don't care about the personality alot. Hope you guys don't misunderstand me again.

I look for real love first - and then the personality.  After that, the appearance.  If someone has a good personality but doesn't really love you much, that doesn't work either.

Actually appearances are the primary force in dealing with attractiveness. How you think someone else looks will drive your actions. We all have certain physical qualities that we look for in finding a mate/spouse/what-have-you. We each have a certain level of "attractiveness" in which we can feel confident in pursuing some sort of a relationship, be it emotional or purely sexual. For instance, you may be infatuated with a model because since very attractive, but you wouldn't pursue something with her because you know she's "out of your league", so you will be willing to settle for her friend who, in your opinion, isn't as attractive because you know you have a better chance of starting a successful relationship. Everything beyond that becomes either a bonus or a detriment.

Once in a relationship, it takes work for both people to remain attractive for their partners. It's not a case of being shallow, it's got far more to do with self-esteem in how you look.

Post by: Jamaha on May 10, 2012, 03:54:50 AM
I wouldn't really think it through the "out of your league" or "settling for".

There's really no point in comparing women and ranking them in some order. I'd say the more important thing is whether you find a certain woman attractive or not. Say, hypothetically, if I saw a woman somewhere and found her attractive. Based on that, I could then try to get to know her to find out whether a relationship is possible based on her personality. Or I could think "Well, she sure is good-looking but there are also better-looking women in the world. No point in settling for her.", move on and repeat this over and over again.

If I was dating (emphasis on IF) an attractive girl and enjoying my time with her, why should it matter if there are more attractive women somewhere in the world? She's attractive enough and one should be able to be happy with that without considering it "settling for her"

Speaking from zero experience.

I agree with some of what he's saying.  I don't agree with the "out of your league" part.  However I do agree that physical attractiveness plays a large part in it, at least 50%.  Contrary to what you might think, it's not personality that's the most important.  Philosophically it may feel right, but in truth physical stuff is more important.  Plus there are many people out there with decent/good personalities.

It also depends on what you mean by "personality." What I look for is just a general good heart, regardless of some of the shortcomings they may have (like a bad temper).  Though most of the times people who are understanding don't have bad tempers. 
Quote from: JaMaHa on May 10, 2012, 03:54:50 AMI wouldn't really think it through the "out of your league" or "settling for".

There's really no point in comparing women and ranking them in some order. I'd say the more important thing is whether you find a certain woman attractive or not. Say, hypothetically, if I saw a woman somewhere and found her attractive. Based on that, I could then try to get to know her to find out whether a relationship is possible based on her personality. Or I could think "Well, she sure is good-looking but there are also better-looking women in the world. No point in settling for her.", move on and repeat this over and over again.

If I was dating (emphasis on IF) an attractive girl and enjoying my time with her, why should it matter if there are more attractive women somewhere in the world? She's attractive enough and one should be able to be happy with that without considering it "settling for her"

Speaking from zero experience.

Regardless of your experience, I think most of this is right.

Post by: MaestroUGC on May 10, 2012, 07:55:03 AM
Believe it or not, we do that with people. You may not realize it, but at some level you are constantly comparing people against each other. There are certain traits that you look for in others, and when find someone that at least matches most of them, if not all, you go to work. Time plays tricks on us, what we interpret as love may infact be love, but it's more likely it's platonic because we've grown to care about our long time friend. It's entirely possible that your best friend of 5 years whom you never considered a potential partner can show up one day and you'll see them as the person you will one day marry, because over time they became that person that you are looking for. They weren't originally, but are now.

And while you may be with someone attractive, you will know there is always going to be someone else who you will find more attractive. Hence "wandering eyes". This goes both ways, it's not a sign of infidelity either, it's human nature to think about other options than the ones you chose. Fantasy helps us define our realities. You may not even consider it settling, but who you have next to you is enough. I don't mean for that to sound crass, but they'd have met enough of the qualities that you are looking for. We all have a very clear and defined image of what we are looking for in a partner, we may not be able to put it into words sometimes. Love at first sight is essentially this, we see some one who seems to be exactly what we are looking for, once you get closer will determine if this is to be true.

It's also got to do with whether or not you think you've got what it takes to pursue a relationship. That level of self-esteem will determine whether or not you choose something with either person A or person B. Example: Person A meets all of you requirements, but they have a considerable history, and you back off. Person B on the other hand, meets most of your requirements, but you believe it'd be far easier to get into a relationship with. Therefore, you'll have chosen person b within a fraction of a second. Any debates you me have consciously means that they both are on equal ground for you.

@raymondbl Ok, you don't like big breasts, that's going to be a factor you are going to consider when trying to find a spouse, along with a great many other traits.

Now there's an investigation going on, when they are completely sure that it was fraud (which it is), they'll give me my money back. If they don't, I'll have to pay for over 1500$ for stuff I didn't buy. I am fuuuuuuuuuuucking pissed off. Why the fuck would I buy tickets for Disneyland anyways.

I would do more jogging but Florida weather sucks, the only cool places to Kayak are springs(usually filled with obnoxious morons) and the mangrove forests down south(2 hour car ride minimum). So swimming is about all I do outside for exercise. I do alot of stretching, push-ups, pull-ups and junk like dat in my house though.

Cuz gyms are for rooks and scrubs.

Wait until college. Lol.

Anyway I had one of the worst travel experiences ever on Wednesday. A 2 hour flight to Detroit wasn't bad but then...15+ hr flight to Hong Kong...I got really sick right before that flight and I was gagging at the sight of food and just covered my face and didn't eat anything for the whole time. I was stuck in the middle since both fat sis and my dad got the aisle seats and I couldn't get up and walk around or sleep for more than 2 hours at a time. Then when we got off, I was feeling really weak and I had to drag the luggage to the bus stop and take the bus for almost 2 hours across Hong Kong. Then we finally arrived at my relative's place and it turns out he didn't have hot water and a gas leak in his apartment, so he couldn't even turn on the stove without covering the whole apartment in smoke and smelly gas. WTF. I wanna leave...

And it's not that it isn't suspicious, it's just that they have to make sure I'm not the one who paid for that stuff. And it definitely is suspicious, my credit limit with that card = 500$. Why would I try to buy stuff worth thrice the amount of my limit? I'm not too worried about it. It's just kind of annoying.

God damn it. Damned summer studies. Damned English classes.

The English classes actually start at the same time as I have my physics exam with "mandatory attendance on the first meeting". Physics at 9, English at 1015. So I could technically leave the exam early and possibly fail physics or miss the lecture and get kicked out.

Alternatively, the later lectures coincide with some random jobs I've got at the university, such as exam supervising and demo lecture reviewing. So failing to attend them because of that class will result in me losing about 250€.

Maybe I should just forget about the class.

Yeah, the selection isn't that great during summer as everyone is supposed to be working. And considering I'm unemployed, well, yeah...

Also everyone must pass written and oral courses on a foreign language, basically English, French, German or Spanish. There are a few English classes every semester but they're always full. Plus the whole mandatory attendance, which can be hard to fit in your schedule.

I hate Teavana's guides. It always ends up really bitter when I follow their stuff. I only get their tea if I want some eclectic blend (like White Earl Grey or Raspberry Mojito)... I get my Asian teas from this Chinese market back at home that is REALLY FANTASTIC... anyone ever been to a Taiwanese Starbucks... they have one in the US (inside this store).

Teavana is just overpriced and weird tea for what you're getting.

Let me attempt to describe the situation I'm in right now.  But first, keep these things in mind.
First Part of Conversation
Emma:  you've proved yourself to be an immature creep and i dont want to deal with you anymore
Andrew:  But I never said anything.
Andrew:  It wasn't me.
Emma:  HAHAHAHHA andrew im actually cracking up at how stupid your making urself look
Emma:  alex TOLD me that you said you want to suck the milk out of my tits
Emma:  and dont even try saying you didnt say it

Second Part of Conversation
Andrew:  ...but I never said that.
Andrew:  You do know she's joking, like Leead, right?
Emma:  andrew you idiot
Emma:  alex wouldnt make that up
Emma:  I KNOW HER
Emma:  like honestly, nothing you say is going to make me belive you
Emma:  You are a pervert and a creepy
Emma:  creep*

Third Part of Conversation
Andrew:  ...yet I never said anything.
Emma:  and i dont want to hurt your feelings, but when you make me as uncomfortable as i am, i have no choice
Andrew:  ...
Emma:  this is why im saying stop trying
Emma:  because theres no way im going to be nice to you again, so instead of being mean, im just going to ignore you completely
Emma:  im sorry it came down to this

And now she blocked me on Facebook.  And then she posts pics of herself in a bikini too... damn it all.

People.  Give me your reactions and responses.

So what everyone else said, deal with the slanderer and then talk to Emma. She sounds a bit angry to be reasonable right now, and posting bikini pics (lol) at this time sort of makes me think she's being...weird?

What Maestro said MasterPro. Even if you don't expect to ever have good relations with Emma again, you need to clear the rumor up quick with Alex. If there's just one thing I know, it's that girls take things that they know. Then they share it with the entire friggin' world while concurrently creating a giggle apocolypse.

Woke up this morning because my parents were yelling at my brother. He got completely wasted yesterday at a party the rest of my family was attending, and he apparently did something disgusting/bad/etc. I don't know what he did because no one wants to tell me, and it's kinda meh to be home 'cause of all the yelling. Also my brother is the kind of person to leave and never come back home.

He totaled his car, so he decided he could use mine since I wasn't home at the time 'cause of school. He did end up totaling my car too.

Quote from: spitllama on June 02, 2012, 09:01:33 AMHe got wasted at a party with FAMILY? Bahaha. How old's this guy?

It wasn't exactly a family party, it was some party his workplace organized, and it just so happens that my other brother works there, and my father's their boss. And he's almost 18 I think.

So apparently he got so drunk that he got mad at my father and he wanted to fight him. He almost hit him I think. Everyone at the party were telling him to cut it out and to calm down, but he didn't apparently, so that's why my parents came home early. It totally ruined their night... now I understand why they're upset. My uncle is an alcoholic and he ruined a ton of parties that way, so it makes it an even bigger deal to us than it should be. Oh, and my brother doesn't even remember about it because he was too drunk. -____- I just hope he'll calm down. Eh, teenagers.

I made croissants today and I had them cooling on my counter.

After a long day studying, I emerge to get one and it seems that one of my roommates squirted mustard all over them.

I SPENT 8 HOURS WAITING FOR THE DOUGH I MADE TO RISE!!! WHAT THE FREAKING HELL!

This is unforgivable. UNFORGIVABLE!

HOW DARE AN INSOLENT HUMAN BEING RUIN MY FOOD!

/rant

I am quite mad.

I took mustard and put it in his pitcher of shoddy (lipton) tea. That'll show him.

PLUS I already cleaned out my stuff out of the kitchen, meaning they no longer have plates and silverware and cups.

But seriously, mess with my food and people get on my death list. It is an unforgivable offense. If only I can put curses on people who do that.

Also I went to bed at 4 am this morning, because I wasn't supposed to work today. My boss called me at 8 am to inform me that I was in fact supposed to work today, but she forgot to write it down on the schedule. I was so damn tired I couldn't even focus on the stuff I had to do. Also she made me work for 3 and a half hour. What is this nonsense.

I'm going to convince them some more I guess. It's probably because they want me home to do chores or something.

I wouldn't be able to do that with my boss xD She calls me whenever she likes, sometime at 11 PM/midnight telling me to come to work tomorrow, or at 8 AM because she left something at Starbucks. True story. I like working there, but sometimes it's a bit much.

Sigh. . .

I didn't sleep well last night, so I was planning on taking a nap when I got to my dad's house today. I get here, and he says "Hey, there's a car show today that we're gonna go to." I just went to the same car show yesterday too. The cars were cool, but I'm just not interested. If I see a nice car on the road I glance at it, give it a second's thought about it, and then move on. So, then, we're finally going home, when my dad, a broker, decides that he wants to look at 3 open houses. Basically just copy the thing about cars here and say "house" instead.

We finally got home at about 3:30 here (it's 4:30 here now) and I was so excited to get relaxed, but I was forced to walk both of my dogs and now I have to mow the lawn. . . Just. . . want. . . sleep.

Maybe it's a state thing.

Everywhere I've worked required me to take a half hour break every 5 hours I worked. The people said it was requited by law... I think so. (Personally, I didn't want to... I'd be losing $5 by taking the break plus whatever I spent on lunch)

As far as I'm concerned, you aren't required to take standard breaks, but you are required to take a lunch break. If an employer doesn't give you a lunch break, he/she can get a heavy fine. So some days I won't take a lunch break, but he'll still take 30 min. out of my pay so he doesn't get calls from the state :/

Only in the US and Canada is that true.

When I was in China, we would have to run across the street when it was "Walk" and a "green light" for us, but cars still keep on going and drive like hell. Emerging markets are terrible with driving laws.

In some European countries and India (I don't have any knowledge of other places) you don't think about using crosswalks. I know that when my dad went to Italy people would walk into the street and the (almost)cars would stop for them. In India, you either make it across, or your group has one less person in it.

I need to fucking get out of here. My dad's a fucking jerk. He's been in a bad mood and all he does is take it out on us, lecturing and yelling at us. Oh and all his points are COMPLETELY INVALID and unreasonable. And he says I can talk to him about my issues with it but whenever I do, he pushes me down and starts insulting me before giving me about ten thousand more (wrong) reasons why he's right. Thanks dad. Way to ruin my Saturday which usually is only moderately horrible.

I seriously need to get out of here. This place is bad for my health. I feel like I'm about to have a breakdown. I might have to purposely go into a coma to avoid the rest of summer. I can't take this. At school at least I have 40 hours a week of not dealing with him. And you can bet I'll be staying after a LOT more next year, especially when I get my license.

Like I cannot wait to move out. If I end up homeless and a failure, at least I won't have to hear about it 24/7. I'm in such a living hell right now. -_- I can't wait for summer to end already. It's not good for me. /rant

I think you should just ignore him for the time being... especially if he's a jerk when you talk to him. Also I won't let you become a homeless person D: I'd go to the US and bring you back to Canadia instead if it were to happen!Oh and I think it's impossible for you to become a failure, you're too awsm.

How could you be a failure?? You're smart and have great potential to do something great! Whatever you do, I know you'd be successful with whatever you put your mind to.

And I wouldn't let you be homeless either! You could come out to California and live the [somewhat] high life!

I had issues last year with someone I lived with and it was HELL. So much stress and craziness to avoid confrontation, I basically remained a shut in over the weekends. It sucked, and I wish I had a car so I could go to Morro Bay for the day or escape to my friend's house or something.

And everyone thinks about being a failure... I think it EVERY DAY. I just have to get past the fact that my GPA is not amazing and my brain is clouded with forgetting almost everything... that REALLY sucks. I'm always lost in thought trying to remember something. That's why I am helping my well-being.

If you want to get out of the house, go on a walk/run to somewhere nearby (perhaps to a fast food place or a coffee shop) and then spend a few hours there. It REALLY gives you great peace of mind

Libraries are your friend. I went to mine practically every day last summer to escape problems at home. Sorry things are getting to you bro, but things will turn out alright.

Friend with whom I'm supposed to go to Toronto is being a complete dick now. He doesn't want to go by train because it's too expensive; he doesn't want to go by bus because we'd have to leave from Quebec City and he'd have to wake up too early; he doesn't want to go by bus because the bus leaving here leaves at 7:30 am and arrives in Toronto at 9:00 pm and he doesn't want to spend a whole day in a bus; he doesn't want to go by car because we'd have to use his car.

Fuck this shit. I guess I'll be going on my own unless he stops acting like a complete retard.

Oh my god the guy I'm going to Toronto with is being a complete bitch. Told him I wouldn't be able to do anything on Sunday 'cause I'll be hanging out with my friends + Pokémon tournament, and he's fucking mad. Also he decided to plan our entire trip. Basically he's forcing me to visit all the stuff he wants to see even though I don't give a fuck about more than half of that stuff. I'm so fucking pissed, the trip is not gonna be fun. Oh also you know whose trip this is? It's mine. Bitch, you're only tagging along so don't piss me out. He went to Boston with other people earlier this month, and one of my friends was part of the trip too. He told me that the guy I'm going to Toronto with whined for the entire trip. Well fuck. My parents didn't want me to travel alone for some reason so I was kinda forced to go with the guy. Also I asked my parents a couple times if they'd want to come with me, and they've always said no. Today my mom told me that if I didn't have anyone to go there with, they would've accompanied me. What the fuck. I've kept bugging them with that for the past few weeks and they always said that no, they didn't want to go. The trip would be way more fun if they'd come with me. Now I'm stuck with a whiny bitch. I'm so fucking pissed.

Not really sure what happened to piss him off so much in it, but I think you're right, Slow. It has something to do with this TWG.

But TWG is only one aspect of NSM. It's not the whole site...

You bet I will.

Ugh I'm so pissed. Also I'm mad at my parents, they should've told me they would've come with me. Fuck. It would've cost me way less than I'm gonna have to spend too.

HEY!

San Diego has NICE weather.

Why don't you come up to LA and then you tell me..

But in truth, it's generally in the 70s until July and then it gets really hot until mid to late september.

Plus I live up in the hills, so we don't get the nice ocean breeze.

EDIT: NO WONDER! San Diego is 71 right now. And I bet there's a nice breeze. Down there, too! Here it's 75.

But if I am running, even if it is 70 outside, I still sweat a lot... especially if it's sunny out.

On another note, I'd like to say that I can't do well in a science major and have a social life outside of the internet. Only a few more years and a lot of suffering and I'd be able to party with the postdocs in some kind of research institution.

She was probably thinking 'oh good I can jump him now.' It's like I can't trust ANYONE. Earlier this year I comforted her when her bf was being an ass, and she never once mentioned 'btw I did your bf just after you broke up'.

I'm so sick of people taking advantage of me. I'm so pissed.

Wow, that is brutal. But at least I didn't have sex with your ex, so we can still be...acquaintances?

I've almost had that happen to me, a few years back my ex apparently propositioned my best friend for sex shortly after we broke up. He didn't go through with it, partly because he was in a happy relationship, mostly because he feared what I'd do to him.

She just graduated last year. She was about to be a sophomore in college. I went to band camp with this chick.. she was on drumline.. beautiful and popular. I had class with her.. She was too young to die.

Deaths are inevitable.  Every single relationship of any kind in life is destined to be severed and broken.  Any life or intelligence could be put out, could be martyred, finished.  We need to know how to move on, face our own trials, and try to survive.  Be prepared for anything to be gone, including yourself. Death ans Fate really are capricious, and life has no preset path, we exist fore the sole purpose of surviving.  All pleasures in life feel good, because our brains and DNA think it to make surviving more likely.  All hurts in life are repulsive, because our brains and DNA think it makes us less likely to survive. 

BTW I hate when people misunderstand me.  Specifically the scenarios where they think I'm insulting them but I'm not.  No, this is not related to the paragraph above this.

No, it just goes to show that Nintendo isn't really going the mile for its NA club Nintendo members. From what I've heard, past rewards have been better for what they're offering now; This decision may impact the sale of new games this time around for people who bought new copies for the club Nintendo points. But then again, it may not due to the eshop and the holiday season where many gifts are bought.

You should know that I complain if it gets above 83... It's generally common knowledge that I LOATHE the heat. Even at 84 and not humid. It looks like it will be >80 all the way until October from what I hear.

Granted California is quite nice compared to the rest of the country (being 80s with no humidity), but I just HATE the heat.

I want it to be 50s and raining RIGHT NOW!!! (I'll bet the country wants that)

And 4 days ago it was pleasant being in the 60s and stuff.

Running tomorrow morning will most certainly not be pleasant.... I hate summer.

Day 5 of detasseling was awful. Pouring rain, soaking wet and freezing cold. Ugh. And to make matters worse when I'm NOT detasseling it's all I can think about. I can't go to sleep without involuntarily thinking about cornfields.

You guys shut up.

Yeah... I got these crazy bloody noses when I was in 4th grade or so... then I had to get this fancy MRI and then BOOM... it was Sinusitis.

And Now I only get are sinus infections and sinusitis. It really sucks, but at least for me, I never get sick.

I don't think of you as a stereotype.

When I think of dumbass dudes, I think of Okies. When I think of cowboy hats, I think of Texans. It's hard to not say something funny about Nebraska (besides the fact that I support UT Longhorns) and corn.

Also, Shadow of the Colossus looks like it has a pretty sad ending. Never played it, just watched the ending.
Shadow of the Colossus probably has the saddest ending of any game in existence. Sadder than the Laytons. Sadder than Mother 3(which is saying something).

Being sadder than Mother 3 is kind of debatable. I guess it can be argued either way. In Shadow of the Colossus, it looks like the entire game is like living a lie...  :(

ummmmm go play it, I suppose? Or I could just spoil the entire game right now.

Instead, I'll just say a little about the game's plot without spoiling anything. So you're a brave warrior guy who has ventured into a forbidden land in order to save the soul of the girl you love(she is dead) after hearing of an ancient being named Dormin with the ability to restore life. You find his temple and he speaks to you, telling you to kill 16 completely innocent giants for him, and only then will he save the girl's soul.

So the point of the game is to murder innocent creatures to save the soul of the girl you love. YOU FEEL TERRIBLE WHEN BEAT THE FIRST ONE, only to realize THERE'S STILL 15 MORE. And the game only gets sadder from there.

WHY LIFE
WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME
A 60 year old woman nipples are not attractive, let me tell you that.

Also I was going to go to bed, but my cat was being annoying so I bumped into it and dropped my laptop on my foot. Don't worry guys, the laptop is okay <3 my foot is swollen and it hurts though ;~;

Its not so much their opinion that everyone is mad about than the way they portrayed it.

Apparently some employee made a fake facebook profile of a teenage girl, and then decided to tell others that were mad at chick-fil-a for their opinion on gay marriage all these things as to why it was a good decision for chick-fil-a and that it was the right thing to do. Stupidly, the dumbass employee who made the profile used an image of a girl from "shutterstock", and commenters in the discussion called out the Facebook "user."

No, you don't have to. In summary, it's an infection that occurs when certain bacteria are killed (via the use of antibiotics) or in certain cases of reduced immunity (by other methods), allowing certain fungal species to proliferate on mucosa and skin membranes.

My car is pretty awesome with gas mileage... though it doesn't cost me that much to fillup... though California has some of the most expensive gas prices in the country. I seriously just paid $3.93 a gallon for gas at COSTCO... goes to show ya.

I get on average 24 MPG.. 31 MPG my ass, window sticker. I must smite thee.

And yes, I do charge for gas... until I get an exorbitant about of money, I can't go crazy with driving everywhere.

OK, so something really creepy and weird happened to me tonight. I swear it's true, I'm not making any of this up.

Right now, I have an awful headache. Tried drinking tons of water, didn't help. Tried resting, didn't help. Tried eating, didn't help. And I'm not the kind of guy who gets headaches often. I haven't had one in months, if not years, and never one this bad before. Well, why do I have a headache you might ask? I'm almost certain it's from a particular song. I know many of you know this song. Bespinben arranged it on the site, and many of you are bigger Pokemon fans than I am. So here it is: The song is Lavender Town. I just discovered it last night, and listened to it a lot. You know, the same song that was rumored to GIVE JAPANESE CHILDREN HEADACHES AND COMMIT SUICICE?! Well now I can verify. The high frequencies in this song do give me headaches. And what's also weird, is that my sister was in the same room with me, and she has a random headache too. Coincidence? I think NOT.

Please keep me in your prayers, I feel awful.  :'(

A two-year old girl in my town just got her face chewed off today by a pet-- a pit bull. So sad to hear. She went from the cutest girl you've ever seen to disfigured for life. To think it wasn't even anything she did that caused such provocation. What's worse is that the girl was being babysat by the owner of the pitbull. The mom had to receive the call in another state.

I want to barf it's so horrendous.

That babysitter. . . How horrible he/she must feel. Even if it wasn't his/her fault.

The babysitter should have known better than to bring a dog notorious for reacting violently to the high pitched sounds of children anywhere near that girl. Totally her fault.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: spitllama on August 07, 2012, 08:13:53 PM
^^ This.

More information says they had to use a bat to get the girl free. The dog didn't let go until it went unconscious from so many hits. That's how determined it was.
Oh and fun fact: Apparently for a pet to be required to be put down (in just Oregon or the US? Idk), it has to have 3 instances worthy of note. This is despite what reputation, witnesses, or the severity of the event may be. So the dog is still in the neighborhood.

Edit: Oh meant to say the babysitter was a guy-- just for clarity's sake.

Post by: Zunawe on August 07, 2012, 08:18:11 PM
See, for something like that it shouldn't need three instances. Severe aggression toward a human resulting in disfigurement = enough for me. I understand that things can make the dog do it, but. . . I don't know.

This happened yesterday but that weeaboo that used to bother me a lot commented on a mutual friend's post. She was being way too inappropriate -.- I don't ever need to know that about anyone and I doubt anyone else would care about her 'preferences', ughhh.

Fine, to relate the conversation: The TV that has my N64 attached burned out, so I can't play it. All other TVs are either in other people's rooms or already have too many things around them. It's kinda funny that it just happened today, I hadn't read the above post. I was gonna play SSB, but when I started the match it just stopped working.

That happened to me once, about two years ago...quite a ridiculous story, mind you.

It was July 4th. I was just transitioning from middle school to high school, and I was uber bored that day, so I began to play my N64 without permission.  It was bright outside, although with some clouds, and a few drops of rain here and there. I was playing Pokemon Stadium. Well, I was playing a Gameboy version (I think it was Red) THROUGH Pokemon Stadium, when all of a sudden, my mom calls me from down stairs. scared, I quickly turn my TV off and leave my system on so no one knows I was playing it. I run downstairs as everything is fine, but as soon as i round the corner to the living room,

BANG!

The power goes out. we look out the window to see a transformer hanging loosely onto a nearby power line- a lightning bolt had struck it and knocked it dead.  We called the power guys (via cell phones) and they came and fixed it up sooner than normal a couple hours later :P  After the power came back on, I went upstairs to see if everything was alright. My N64 turned on just fine, but my TV was fried. I turned it off instead of my N64, and IT'S the one that's fried. I still don't understand.

But anyways, yeah, TV's can be fried by lightning bolts, and N64's are awesome.
^^moral of the story^^


...Then I had to carry my tv downstairs all by myself so we could take it to the dump. that was hard, trying to dodge all the people in my house.

That poor rabbit died like the next day. Seriously, that stupid girl just found it funny. Snowball should put her in a microwave.

Sorry, I haven't looked at the forum since last week. But that's just fucking awful, and she thought it was funny? I hate people.

So I was at the park with some friends last light. One of my friends was wanted to wrestle so I agreed. So I was pretty much dominating and had him nearly pinned but he started breaking free of the hold I had him in. And that's when I felt something snap right below my shoulder. I couldn't move my arm. I put it in a sling that was my belt, and wouldn't you know, the cops arrived! So there I was, in shock, with an immobilized arm while police ask us questions because they got a call about a domestic disturbance. Needless to say, it wasn't a good night. And I can still just barely move my arm(though my hand works just fine). And I still have no freaking clue what I did to it. Not to mention BOTH of my jobs require two hands/arms. This sucks.

So, my cat has been missing since Thursday night.  He's the kind of cat who stays indoors during the daytime, and goes out at night to hunt.  All Friday, I didn't see him, so I started getting worried and put up a couple "Missing Cat" poster things.  I went out looking for him in the daytime (it's almost 110o here) and couldn't find him, I went looking at night too and still couldn't find him.  Then again, he's not the kind of cat who hides at night or anything, so I don't see why he wouldn't respond to me calling for him.

Then, about an hour ago, I went to search for him AGAIN, checking the neighbors' lawns again.  I don't know how I hadn't noticed earlier, but... I saw a patch of dark gray fur on the grass, with a pile of intestines and such next to it.  My cat is a black cat, but still... I have a feeling that fur was his. Since he wasn't wearing a collar at the time (he's gotten rid of ten collars so far, he hates them so much) I don't know if I can confirm if that really was his remains.  There's this stray gray cat that wanders around here but I don't think it was that cat.

There's only one thing in this neighborhood that could kill a cat like mine: coyotes.  Damn coyotes (and raccoons) are always wandering into my backyard and stuff at night. >:(

Yeah, I've heard it's not bad, and it's just a lot of in-class-work with reading or finishing essays at home, I just don't like it. What really annoys me is how overly-analytical they teach us to be.

Book: It was dark in the room, kinda murky. The ceiling was cracked and yellowed, the carpet was dirty and worn, and the mattress was bent inward toward the middle.

Teacher: The darkness represents the character's abusive childhood and the bed is folded toward the middle because he's a middle child and the carpet is worn to symbolize his repetitive life!!!!

Us: But, the bed could just be folded to show how beat up the pla-

Teacher: NO!!!!

. . . Or something along those lines.

^For me, I had homework like once the entire year besides reading novels. It was a lot of in-class essays.

As far as the symbolism goes, a solid 90% of what the teacher says is true. Shakespeare barely wrote a sentence that wasn't imbued with subtext, and other writers like Faulkner or Salinger really did mean a LOT of symbolism that's not obvious at all.

Rarely, if ever, is a bed just folded to show how beat up the place is, if you see what I mean. Not in most literature you learn in school, anyway.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on August 13, 2012, 05:20:23 PM^For me, I had homework like once the entire year besides reading novels. It was a lot of in-class essays.

As far as the symbolism goes, a solid 90% of what the teacher says is true. Shakespeare barely wrote a sentence that wasn't imbued with subtext, and other writers like Faulkner or Salinger really did mean a LOT of symbolism that's not obvious at all.

Rarely, if ever, is a bed just folded to show how beat up the place is, if you see what I mean. Not in most literature you learn in school, anyway.
I just feel like minute details aren't always as important as some people make them out to be. Dumbledore saying he set the curtains on fire as a student definitely has a purpose, but the fact that the curtains were red probably doesn't matter. Some of my teachers just seem to go overboard beyond making sense.

^I don't think Harry Potter has much symbolism like that, because I think JKR is a brilliant storyteller, not a genius. She made him set the curtains be set on fire because she needed something to put there, in my opinion. (And the curtains are red because of Gryffindor, no?)

Some of the writers once you start to study them in depth will appear as total geniuses. It's so weird.

AP Language and Composition doesn't really focus on symbolism very much.  Painstakingly searching for symbolism is for AP Literature and Composition.  Language is mostly about rhetorical and literary devices (diction, irony, symbolism, plot, pathetic fallacy, enumeratio, straw man argument, and a myriad of others.  You won't ever need to know all of them, but you'll have a good slew of them to fit many situations in your readings) and explaining how they enhance various texts.

Okay, fine. :P The point is that I enjoy reading, and don't want to get too caught up in how to read, or how it was written. Right now I feel like it takes the fun out of it.

Oh I definitely agree with that. I think maybe you should read it for fun and then afterwards try to figure out some symbolism--otherwise it'll just seem like a tedious chore to read.

The problem with that is I HAVE SO MANY BOOKS THAT I WANT TO READ BUT DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO. I mean, I'm on book 8 of the Wheel of Time, about book 5 in the Ranger's Apprentice, somewhere in the Merlin series (it's been a while), book two of the Lord of the Rings, and halfway through book 3 of the Night Angel Trilogy. I don't really want to take the time to read any book twice, and by the time I decide I want to, I will have forgotten the book.

Of any of those, I think I'd rather do that with Lord of the Rings than any of the others. Maybe Wheel of Time. Ohsomanybooks.

However, my coworker called 10 minutes before my shift was supposed to end, and since she was "sick" she couldn't come to work. I had to work an extra shift, so I couldn't go to said party. Also, because I was at work, I had no mean to tell the girl that I wouldn't be able to go to her party because of that. Now they're pissed at me, calling me a bitch because I didn't go to the fucking party, and I learned today that my coworker wasn't sick, she just wanted to get drunk that night. Well.

Seriously, I don't think there is ever a time of day when there isn't traffic in Los Angeles... it's the most extensive freeway system (5, 405, 105, 10, 210, 710, 110, 60, 90, 91) in a metropolitan area and it's probably the most clogged.

FUN FACT: the 405 freeway is the most travelled on freeway (in terms of amount of cars per day) in the world.

Work was hell today... bad things always happen on the last day.

I was cleaning the inside of the GTI at our mall display when some group of teenage boys came by (like 14 or so) and decided to honk the horn and make loud noises. They then decided to steal the keys and press the panic button. When I got out of the car, they were already running up the escalator. They were still pressing the panic button multiple times. Many people began to look and others began to yell at me because I couldn't turn the alarm off. Thank God that the van was plugged into the floor, so I unplugged it and had to call security.

They couldn't track down the kids... DUMB FUCKING KIDS... I even told my boss that if they came back, I'd stab them with a pen or something sharp... or maybe force them to lick the car battery.

It kinda sucks. When I was 8 and playing dodgeball on a court with loose gravel on asphalt, I was knocked over and a rock went into my knee. The doctors had to find the rock and fix everything up...

That was most certainly a fun night.

When I was ~5, I was playing tag with other kids and one of them knocked me over, and a rock went into my hand. It's been there for 15 years now.

Must comment about knee/rock injuries.

When I was 7 or something I was running around in my yard throwing a baseball up and trying to dive to catch it. On one of the throws I jumped and landed on my knees. My kneecap went directly into a very square rock with a sharp edge. A triangular piece of skin about an inch long at the still-attached part came off. Seven stitches and a scar that I will never get rid of.

Aww that sucks. I guess you can't reschedule exams -.- You could sell the ticket and maybe go see the concert again when it plays in another city...

My roomie/best friend moved out of the dorms yesterday and dropped out because she can't afford college. It hit me pretty hard. I already hated it here, didn't help that I lost her. I literally cried to my mother. I took the hour drive home because I forgot my meds, perfect excuse because I  get sick without them, and I cried to my mother. Drove back this morning, yay.

So, our school is big enough that we have to separate the lunches. The way we do that is by what subject your fifth period is. I have first lunch with all my friends because I have AP Comp Sci fifth. Today, my teacher decided that she wanted to leave early on Tuesdays and Thursdays. (On those days we have odd periods, and she has seventh off. That means that after fifth period, if she has nothing else to hold her there, she can leave school.) So, she decided for all of us that we would now have second lunch, and her class first. Naturally, it doesn't conflict with any other classes directly, but we had absolutely no say in the matter, she expected us to enjoy second lunch because half of us have seventh off as well (not me), and I'm pretty sure that the administrators don't have any idea. One of them came in to ask about a test and she told him that they would have to do it a period after what they planned. He walked out confused.

I really do hate her. She put AP Comp Sci in the same period as Intro to Comp Sci, and she just gives us incomplete instructions on programs to write. She expects us to buy a $160 textbook that we will just be doing a few problems out of, even though she could easily scan the pages and put them up on the same site she assigns the problems on. She sticks to her own schedule (as I mentioned), and doesn't care if you have questions after school, because she's "done for the day".

Luckily I already know most of the things in the class, and if I don't I can just look it up and use a review book, but seriously. I don't know how she was ever considered a competent teacher.

Anyway, I had to get that out somewhere. It's just. . . rgh.

The high school was always saying not to worry about money...they must be kidding-.- At least you only live an hour away...I lived 8 hours away when I went to my first college and I didn't have any real friends. It was probably the worst 2 years ever.

Wait why is that awkward at orientation? Everyone's in a new situation it makes sense to ask random generic questions like that for introductions.

I found the three safe questions are "What's your major?" "Where are you from?" and "What drew you to this school?" There's tons of conversation that can come out of those.

Kefka, it's perfectly okay if you know what it feels like to be a pretty girl.

Anyways, on the 28th I got negative on the strep test but today at the actual pediatrician it was positive?
I'm pretty sure the pharmacy failed, unless I started receiving symptoms of strep before I even developed it.

The swollen lymph node and the tongue thing aren't really normal for strep, though.

People always do that to me. I don't really consider them as friends, more like retards.

Also yesterday I went to bed pretty early because I was really tired. As I was trying to sleep my neighbor starts yelling really loud; it sounded like she was having an argument with someone. I think there were 4-5 people yelling, and then I heard them fight. People were yelling Stop! and Calm down! while a girl was yelling Let me go! It was pretty intense. And I just wanted to sleep ;~;
Hopefully it doesn't happen again... I didn't call the campus security because I was too tired to get up but christ if it happens again I'll def do it.

I think I have a cold. I freaking hate it when you can breathe out of one nostril but not the other. And then eventually they clear up. . . and the other nostril gets clogged.

Post by: Mashi on September 10, 2012, 04:25:08 PM
I think that may be related with how most people breathe unequally through the nostrils cyclically (as in, having more air flow in the right more than the left for 4 hours, and then more in the left than right for another 4 hours).  I'm not sure if it's possible to 'fix' without surgery or something though.  The airflow through the nostrils does affect a bunch of glands and the nervous system somehow (I'm too dumb to know how though!), so the next time one of them is clogged, be happy that your body is working to alleviate the sickness!!!

I love how you always pull out science to make these things seem petty. I don't think that's what you're trying to do, it just happens sometimes. Anyway, I guess it's possible that it's transferred to one side so that you at least have a normal flow through one. I just hate how awkward it feels.

Yes. Pirate Bay is like the best website ever. Most of your awesome American shows come to TV in here about 0,5-3 years after they were first aired in America. :( That's why it's so great for me, at least.

My fucktard of a coworker decided he didn't want to work today, because his "throat hurts a little bit". Who had to work more today? Of course it's me. -______-
I need a new job.

Also my parent are buying a house in a city I can't stand. They also told me the biggest reason as to why they want my cat to be euthanized is because they don't want her to move with us. I'm so fucking pissed out. If they do that I don't think I'll ever forgive them. Putting her down because she's sick and she's suffering, I'm okay with that, even if it makes me really sad. But doing it because you don't want to take care of her anymore? It's a living being for fuck's sake, who do you think you are deciding to throw her life away like that? I feel awful. I'm so sad and mad at the same time... Bleh.

Thanks guys. I'm okay. Both cars slammed on the brakes (probably not the wisest choice for our car), and the drivers got out to check what happened (I couldn't open my door since the truck was in the way). I wish you all could have seen the space between both of the cars. It is a miracle that they didn't touch. There was probably half a foot of space between them. How this stuff happens, I'll never know.
There was an exchange of profanities between the two of them, along with other drivers (this is in the middle of the intersection, mind you), the black truck backed up, and we were on our way.

Everyone yield on left turns! Please!

Today.

Oh my god today.

5 AM: I wake up to go with my family to make pizza for two hours, for a crazy company who wants 90+ pizzas at 8 AM.
7:30: I go with my brother and mom to deliver the pizzas. We get stuck in major traffic and add 20 minutes to a trip that's already about 20 minutes. School starts at 8:25.
8:10: we get there and they're crazy disorganized and not ready for us even though we called ahead AND showed up late.
8:25: school starts. My music theory test begins. Elsewhere, we are trying to make good time getting to school.
8:30: we pull into school.

I show up late and take a test in first period and a quiz in second, I translate difficult latin poetry in third, I struggle to stay awake in fourth, I eat a crappy lunch, I drift off in math but luckily understand the concepts, I give a debate in sixth with three other classmates about why space travel isn't beneficial, and I take a quiz in seventh over chapters of a book I didn't have time to read.

I get home at 4:20. We're leaving for the restaurant at 4:45. I change and have a couple pretzels so I have something to eat, then mom walks in early and announces we're leaving.

I get to the restaurant and say hi to dad, eat a dinner of pizza which I'm almost sick of at this point, then stand around exhaustedly doing practically nothing, as we're dead slow from 5-8. My mom comes to pick me up at 8. As soon as I check out of my register and clock out, the phone rings. Two lines. We answer them and as soon as we hang up, two more lines. Basically we get more orders in the next half hour than we've gotten all night.

We finally leave. I get home and empty the dishwasher since it's my day and I didn't have time earlier. I take a shower to relax a bit. I've calmed down. I get on my laptop. AT&T has shut off our internet until tomorrow at least, for NO REASON. This also means I can't email a girl some homework stuff I promised her I would, and that yes, I've typed all this out on my phone.

I need to go to bed.

About 200,000 people were killed by the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The estimated number of deaths if the US had invaded Japan was somewhere around 4 million. Just saying.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Mashi on September 18, 2012, 01:26:50 PM
SuperFireKirby, the situation was different and there was a time limit for when we could use the bombs, since the Soviet Union had made a formal declaration of war with Japan and troops were already on the way there (and we wouldn't be able to use the bombs if an ally was in there).  Reagan figured that if Japan wasn't willing to give up when we threatened to bomb them, they wouldn't give up if we dominated them with troops, so bombing was the lesser of two evils.  Furthermore, the situation between Japan and the Middle East are extraordinarily different considering that we're not with war with any country (if we're at war with anyone, it's terrorists who make up a ridiculously small minority (and it's spread out too, so we wouldn't even know where to bomb).  Not to mention that the Middle East (Saudi Arabia in particular) is already doing enough to counter terrorism, probably even more than the US, so there's really no need to bomb anyone when we can deal with things diplomatically.  There hasn't even been a major terrorism attack ever since 2004 in Spain, if I recall correctly, so it's not as if terrorism is our primary problem anymore anyway.

Of course, I'm sure that you're not insinuating that we should start using our bombs, but I just wanted to clarify that our bombing of Japan was under very specific and stressed circumstances.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: SuperFireKirby on September 18, 2012, 01:31:39 PM
^Exactly. Of course I'm not saying bombing is a good thing, I was just pointing out, as you said, the bombing was the lesser of two terrible evils. Yes, the atomic bombs caused major devastation to Japan, but just imagine if there had been a full-scale invasion. Instead of two cities being destroyed, you'd have an entire country ravaged. Obviously, this doesn't justify the mass killings of innocent people, but it at least gives some perspective as to why it was done.

Post by: KefkaticFanatic on September 18, 2012, 03:59:01 PM
They nuked an innocent civilian population and exposed it to various long term harm from radiation

And it's really not that reasonable to compare death numbers.

Plus, the US was already firebombing cities all over the country, it wasn't just the nukes hitting civilians... that's another part of where that count comes from.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Zunawe on September 18, 2012, 05:33:20 PM
I feel like bombing Japan was the single best choice for the US, but I personally think it was unnecessary to drop two bombs when we barely gave the Japanese to respond to the first. I honestly have no idea what could have been done other than what was, especially if the Japanese were as persistent as we're told. It's not as if whoever made the decision wanted to kill innocent people, but what would you have done?

Also, I think it's funny how the people who have no idea what they are saying talk without capitalization or spaces and such.

Post by: Wrydryn on September 18, 2012, 08:37:33 PM
You guys make great points here but at the time they weren't able to know what the effects of the bomb would be for sure. As they say, "Hindsight is 20/20." So it ultimately came down to the lesser of the two evils at the time. Although it wasn't exclusively the two options, they were the most likely to be used.

As I've already wrote a short essay on the subject matter for my history class previously, I'll just copy pasta it here for you guys:

Quote from: Wry's EssayThe use of the Atomic Bomb to end the portion of WWII in the Pacific front has always been debated on whether the use of it was justified. Both sides of the issue have very strong points that include the preservation of life, necessity, and involved politics.

   One of the reasons often used to argue for the use of the A-bomb is that to save the unnecessary loss of life on both sides of the opposing forces. However,  the estimated total death toll of the dropping of the bombs are about 189,000 civilian deaths as a result of the initial drop and an additional 27,000+ from after effects of the two bomb detonations. This does not account for the nuclear fallout afterwards though. Unfortunately President Truman had not known the extent of the damage the A-bomb would cause initially and in the future. The firebombing that the US did over the cities of Japan had also already done a great deal of damage to both property and the citizens much like the German's way of blitzkrieg in Europe. At this cost, it saved the lives of plenty of American soldiers if they were to try and take a foothold on the island, with the death estimates very high.

   Despite what the necessity of the bomb may have been; there was also play of politics with the dropping of the bomb. The power of the atomic bomb was manipulated to show the power that America had in order to stop the Soviets in a joint occupation of Japan, which could have spread communism that we feared. The Soviets had proven this after they broke many of their promises from the Yalta conference. It had also made the Japanese fear their ultimate defeat by the hand of the United States and surrender earlier at the cost of many Japanese citizens' lives.  However, due to the timing of the two bomb drops, not enough time was allowed for the Japanese Emperor to weigh the chance of another bomb being dropped and their surrender. As an added benefit, the world was able to see the terrible destruction that atomic weapons would bring to the world if they were involved to a greater extent in a future war.

   Many lives would have been lost as a result of dropping and not dropping the bomb on cities, the deciding factor was the lesser of the two evils. By instilling fear in the Japanese Emperor to surrender on our terms, it saved time and the lives of pushing our troops onto the island and kept the Soviets from spreading communism to Japan and interfering with democracy. If the bomb had not been dropped, it was still likely that the two cities would have been firebombed. It would have not of showcased the awesome power of the bomb either, potentially allowing for a future nuclear war. So, although the United States didn't need to push for the unconditional surrender of Japan, it was better for the country in the long run, allowing for more freedom of the people at the cost of the A-bomb.

Also Youtube is being stupid.

I'm sure both Tchaikovsky and Beethoven's been dead for more than a 100 years unless someone would like to tell me they've seen Beethoven walking around in 1936 or something -.-

Well I already won that living room Beethoven dispute within a minute -.- The original claim said that the [first movement of the] sonata was a composition whose rights were held by various groups. The second Tchaikovsky one dispute is still open but the claim said it was a set of a compositions I've never heard of, which was published from 1934-1936. Don't think they even watched the video...

I should copy paste the claims if anyone's interested. It just sounded so dumb.

^hmm I don't really think that quote was used in this sorta context, but...maybe.

My lab now sucks -.- I need to buy the book for it because this is kind of white noise and I have to turn in a lab report for this.

"For a given solution of specified concentration m, the integral heat of solution per mole of solute ΔH is the heat absorbed when one mole of solute is dissolved isothermally in enough solvent to form a final solution of concentration m. in other words, it is the enthalpy change for the change in state at constant p and T

A + xS = Aˑ xS (solution, conc., m)     (1)

Where A is the pure solute and S is the pure solvent. This quantity ΔH varies with the concentration m. as x in Eq. (1) approaches infinity (m approaches zero), ΔH asymptotically approaches a constant value ΔH, the integral heat of solution at infinite dilution.
In many thermodynamics calculations, it is necessary to know the enthalpy change for the change in state at constant p and T
A = A (solution in S, con. M)              (2)

where A and S have the same meaning as in Eq. (1). This quantity is known as the differential heat of solution of the solute and may be thought of as the heat absorbed when one mole of solute is dissolved isothermally in an infinite amount of solution of concentration m. the differential heat of solution could in principle be obtained by measuring the heat absorbed per mole (δQ/δn) when a very small number of moles (δn) of solute is dissolved in a finite amount of solution. In practice, however, it is much easier to calculate the differential heat of solution from the integral heat of solution determined as a function of concentration. For the change in state

N1 component 1 + N2 component 2 = solution (const p, T)  (3)
The enthalpy change is given by
ΔH = Hsoln –N1H1° - N2H2°      (4)

Where Hi° is the molal enthalpy of pure component i. the value of ΔH will be a function of both the number  of moles of solute (N2) and of solvent (N1). If Eq. (4) is differentiated with respect of N2, while p, T, and N1 are held constant, the result is

[Some long equation that's an image, not text]
 
Where H2 is the partial molal enthalpy of the solute in solution and ΔH2 is the differential heat of solution of the solute.
Now consider the solution of m moles of solute in 1000g of solvent to give a solution of molality m. the enthalpy change ΔH will be mΔHint; therefore, 
 
[Another long equation that's an image, not text]

Once ΔHint  is known as a function of concentration m, the differential heat of solution ΔH2 can be calculated for any concentration by use of Eq. (6a) and (6b).

So you know how I'm going to Burneo? (You probably don't since I only mentioned it once) Yeah so our lovely education department decided that there was a risk that our rooms may not have smoke alarms, that we could get kidnapped if we have to take three taxies (There are 2 adults), that we can't go swimming or white water rafting because one of the teachers doesn't have her bronze madalion yet and that if we get hurt (Which is very likely since we're walking up several mountains) we could sue them for no apparent reason. I now know why people call WA, 'the nanny' state.

A man I know died Tuesday night. I wish I could describe how sad I am about it. He was the most legitimately good man I've ever encountered in my life. 66, not that old. He was a general substitute teacher at my school, a really amazing guy who was going to get his own full time teaching job next year. Every week he'd go to our pizza restaurant and we'd talk. I just saw him Monday, I didn't know it would be the last time.

Graaaaahh that's so upsetting. He didn't deserve to die.

I don't study. That's probably going to be a very bad thing later, but I've never needed to. I understand things with a few practice things in class.

If there's an apocalypse, then I just wasted 11 years of my life in school.

Fun fact: The Mayans didn't account for leap day in their "end of the world". Because of that, the exact day they predicted actually happened much earlier in the year.

So many people dying. I don't even know if I should add my own troubles to the mix. But I guess I should.

My best friend's dad just passed away from brain cancer. He'd been fighting it for almost 3 years, and it seemed like he was doing fine. I have no idea how it happened. It's awful, because he was literally the nicest person I think I've ever known. Never raised his voice, never got angry, always tried to help everyone in any way he could. And now he's gone from a terrible, painful disease. This will be the fourth funeral I've attended in the past two years. Too many good people gone. Too many funerals.

So all week I talked to my principal to have him ask the career center if students from our school could leave early to go to the pep rally yesterday.  He did and we were allowed.  My ride back to school was another kid at the career center, and she told me to meet her out front when we were dismissed.  1:30, I go outside to find her, I text her, she left 10 mins ago without me!  I had to walk 2 miles up hill to get back to the school, and by the time I got there, the pep rally was over.
I went down to the band room to meet up with the drumline so we could coordinate rides to steak n shake.  They said, we'll meet back here at 3 to divvy up rides.  I come back at 2:58, they all left.  Thank god my friend Russ had to pick something up from the band room, so he drove me there.

same thing happened twice in one day >:(

I'm out of anti-depressants, which means I'll be getting sick from withdrawal AND I'm 10x more emotional.
Let's look at the things that have made ETF cry or almost cry today:
-Thinking about Carrie Underwood winning American Idol (IT WAS YEARS AGO BUT I'M JUST SO HAPPY FOR HER)
-Thinking about Princess Leia (that ones not so shocking)
-Someone left a card for hookers under my door (not even hookers I could afford)
-Hit my head on the wall
-Realizing I'll get sick soon
-Not wanting to be at school
-Laundry bag was heavy
-Realizing I need to change my major because I will never be an animator
-Realizing I may lose my work study job
-Etc.

You can't get a few more at the pharmacy to carry you over for a few days? If you have had the prescription filled in the past and it's not a drug that's abused, you should be able to get at most 5.

Everyone's selfish to a degree. Everyone mostly speaks about themselves. It's part of being human. Certainly, there are extremes but those types aren't common.

My ethics teacher made a point related to this, saying humans are very egocentric and, to a degree, narcissistic beings. Just look at your thought patterns. Almost 100% of all thoughts you make in a day concern yourself. "I'm hungry." "I need to do this." "If I blahblahblah, then I can blahblahblah." You aren't even aware of most of the thoughts you make concerning yourself, where as to think about someone else, the thought requires being on a completely conscious level.

I don't think it would be narcissistic if it's concerning things required to keep yourself alive, or basically thinking of the tasks you need/want to carry out in the day...
If you're saying something like "I wiped the floor with the other team," then THAT would be narcissistic.

Two definitions of narcissism:
1: "Excessive love or admiration of oneself."
2: "A psychological condition characterized by self-preoccupation, lack of empathy, and unconscious deficits in self-esteem."

I know you said "to a degree", but that's discussing basic human behavior more than selfishness or egotisticalness (lol, made-up words).

No, of course you're not self-centered. But when you were making that choice of sandwich or pizza(are you CRAZY, who picks a sandwich over pizza?!?!?), who's perspective were you making that choice from? You say "I" want the sandwich. It's not the fact that you chose that sandwich that makes the decision egocentrical(more made up words!), but that fact that you made the decision from your own point of view.

Okay, but there was also the comment about concious thinking. As in BDS's example, you must be able to think something beyond yourself to form that sort of thought. In my example, narcissism would be to take the sandwich in order to deprive somebody else. Not to take it because I don't care about that one person's decision, or I'm not thinking about them.

(Also, the pizza tastes like baked cardboard with soy cheese. I'd rather have a spicy chicken sandwich.)

Now I cant play it because I have a test tomorrow in Latin and after what happened last time with Professor Layton and the ionic bonds...yeah.

I still need to buy B2W2...

I just spent around $200 on MTG cards (and I'll get some back) and still... ugh.

My boss is keeping a tight hold on my budget (and now that gas is like $4.85 a gallon and I have car/phone bills... yep. Not so much money)... and not to mention the Trader Joes curse (it prevents me from spending less than $50)

And not to mention that I haven't slept 8 hours in 5 weeks... that's making it all better

Gas here is about $3.50. I didn't realize it was that bad over there. The last time prices were this bad I had heard that it was about $4.00 in California.

UGh... being sick couldn't come at the worst time.

I like NEVER get sick (like non-sinus infection), but now I have this shitty infection that's in my lungs... so I'm on anti-inflammatory inhalers and antibiotics.

But the BEST part about the week is that I have 5 interviews for internships this summer (and need to be my best) as well as two programs this week (Iron Chef: Guacamole Edition will TOTALLY ROCK!)

And I have a French midterm tomorrow and a Corporate Tax return due Thursday..

SO MUCH TO DOOO!!!!

But see, I usually work in our computer lab from 5-9 on Tuesdays, when thinking about it I realized 5 was when the dorms reopen and was like 'omg what if I'm suppose to work!'. I had assumed not because of the break, but I decided to e-mail my boss. This was EARLY this morning. So she's had plenty of time to respond. SO. Bitch doesn't respond, so I get here early just in case. Fucking building is locked! I COULD BE HOME HAVING A HOMECOOKED MEAL AND INSTEAD I'M SITTING IN MY DORM LIKE A FUCKING LOSER.

FSM, I'm really sad to hear that. But as long as you caught it early, you should be fine. Unfortunately, you'll have to get the cancer surgically removed since that the only sure fire way to get rid of stomach cancer. And surgery isn't very fun.

But we're all here for ya, buddy. I know you'll kick cancer's ass Armstrong style(but with less steroid abuse). It's gonna be hard, but you can do it.

So at my house where I am now I never even lost power, but the entire island where my shore house was got destroyed. Im pretty sure the house is ok, since our neighbor who stayed on the island said it looks fine. I just looked at the twitter and tumblr pictures and its terrible. (http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/lbi) My family has no idea what happened to my dads boat, since even though we took it out of the water it flooded so much that it probably floated away. Theyre not letting anyone on the island for 10 DAYS since people are idiots and will probably hurt themselves somehow

EDIT: Ok, adding.
At the beginning of the month I texted my friend who transferred out of my school and asked her if she wanted to go trick-or-treating together, and that she could invite anyone else she wanted to. A few days ago she texted back saying that she "already made other plans". All my other friends live 2+ hours away so....Im either not going trick-or-treating this year or Im going with my 5th grade sister. Yippie.

Also, Halloween has been rescheduled by my town for Saturday, but the next town over says Friday. Either way Im going both nights :D

So I'm going to be an entire fucking year behind if I want to be able to get the degree I want. WHAT THE FUCK. I am so fucking pissed off at my college right now. Who the fuck designs a program where if the classes fill before you can sign up, it's virtually fucking impossible to get your degree? God damn it.

I hear ya. Exact same thing happened to me last year, but since there was a lot of students who didn't have the class they decided to schedule the class. As Spit said, can't you take other classes you need instead? It'd really suck if you were to change your major just 'cause your college sucks =/

Also fuck I hate people. Every time someone tells me they're going to hang out with me they either find a reason not to hang out with me or they just don't show up. Fuck, I could've done something instead of waiting for your sorry ass to show up at my place. I'm pissed.

One of the classes I need is basically a 2 year course since it goes 1,2,3,4. And the first one is a prerequisite/corequisite for other classes, which are prereqs for other classes. Basically the whole program stems from one class and if you don't get that in your first semester, you're fucked. And that's what is so messed up about the program.

I think I'll just get my all my gen ed classes knocked out and then transfer to a university with a better program. Because this one sucks.

You could talk to the professor about that, maybe he or she would let you take some classes at the same time even if one of them is a pre-req. There were some students that took physics and physical chemistry at the same time even though physics was the pre-req...that stuff actually happens more often than you think.

So my bf ordered something from the US 3 weeks ago, and he had the package sent to my house. He needs it for Saturday, because it contains cards and he's playing in some tournament on that day. Since I have yet to receive the package, I asked two of my friends if they could lend us the cards he hasn't received yet. Both laughed and said no, deal with your problem. Goddamn fuck why are people so fucking dumb. Those aren't friends, those are fucking douchebags. I hate people even more than I already did.

This same problem happened to myself. I asked three of my friends if I could borrow these yugioh cards and they said "lol no you'll probably lose them" and I was like whatever fuck you. I never got those cards I ordered for the tournament. I hate people too.

I would seriously go get that checked out by a skin doctor. If it suddenly just appeared overnight, etc, it's a possible sign of melanoma. If it is, like you said, huge, that's not a good sign either.

So a candy store opened up in the mall. And soI bought like 2 pounds of candy. And ate it all while watching Doctor Who. And then felt kinda sick. So I ate some milk and cookies. And SOMEHOW I felt even more sick. So now I'm kinda regretting eating all that candy.

ive been playing virtues last reward for about eight hours of play time

suddenly ds freezes

game card is firmly in place

ds not bumped at all

wtf ds

now i have to sit through an hour of text again

Luckily, I had decided to save randomly in the middle of a playthrough, rather than waiting till I saw an ending as I have been doing. If I had had to do the entire playthrough over again, I would have killed something.

Great game though.

The only real downside so far is always being out of breath since I don't have enough oxygen in my body.

But yeah it sucks because basically 3rd year people get to pick their classes first, and since 2nd year and 3rd year students basically need to pick the same classes... yeah. It's like the classes are optional but obligatory at the same time, and now the class I wanted to pick was already full yesterday, when I could only start picking my classes this morning. Ugh. Also I'm picky and I don't want to have school on Fridays D:

There are a lot of symptoms actually, like constant headaches, skin paleness, low blood pressure, swollen spleen, rapid heart rate, etc. If you're worried you could go see a doctor I guess, since if it's not treated it can lead to a heart attack .______.
But yeah unless you have other symptoms I don't think it you have anemia. I mean it's normal to be out of breath/tired when you always have to run to try not to be late for your class.

I concur, I don't think that one's language usage is generally the first thing one takes primary focus on when angered.  I think that it's fine, so long as she's not directly cursing one of us out.  Cursing excessively provides the same kind of cathartic relief as screaming into a pillow, I feel.  Besides, this is The Rant Thread, after all!

I was never saying that it violated the rules! My comment was meant to allude to the fact that I found the post obnoxious to read and even elementary in its construction. In the end though, she can do what she wants.
And Mashi I would really disagree with the assertion that we don't think about what we say when we're mad. We're on a forum. We get to type, review, and even edit after posting. The impulse argument is invalid.


On a different note, though, today we reviewed and discussed progressivist ideals. The ignorance is rampant.

I was originally going to post a comprehensive study that probably no one on the forum would understand, but then I found a study from Hong Kong, so I'm posting it: http://hub.hku.hk/handle/10722/31104

Weeee.  So the assertion that the impulse argument is invalid has been invalidated!!!

Here's the study I originally intended to post, by the way: http://www.ccbd.net/sites/default/files/bedi-33-02-108.pdf
I wanted to find a short one that just straight out said "Anger = Impulsive" online, but many of the articles I found ended up more intensively studying a different aspect of that.  I didn't want to use this study though, because it only studies elementary school boys, but it'll have to do for now.  Here's a different study that supports the case that age and anger show no correlation between adults, however: http://trace.tennessee.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1110&context=utk_nurspubs  Interestingly enough, there was a  "propensity to overtly express anger, with younger women."


In conclusion, there is too much information on the Internet for me to easily find proof of a point. :(

There are big differences between getting angry and speaking out of line, vs. sitting down at a computer and formulating a response after the fact. None of your sources addressed that. If they did, please point me to the sections.

Also, spitllama, I think it could be considered a little bit degrading to have a rant described as elementary and obnoxious to read.
Profanity shouldn't be a big deal. Like you said yourself, she can cuss if she wants. Complaining about it doesn't ever accomplish anything.


Anyways, if anyone would like to continue this mode of conversation, you have to completely translate the portion of the article that I posted. It's in Afrikaans. Good luck.

You're assuming that the angered person will formulate the response after the fact.  There isn't a big difference between speaking out of a line and creating a response on the computer in this circumstance; people speak out of line on the computer.  The only qualifying factor is the ability to edit a post.  However, chances are that the angered person will not be thinking of the edit button because he/she is still angry (catharsis provides relief, but it doesn't always rid of the anger!) and there therefore would not be an after the fact.

That's in jest.  Not everyone on the forum has taken a Psychology course.  If I'm going to post sources, it's best to make them easily understandable to the layman, hence why I wasn't inclined to post it.  I don't think anyone on the forum would have found it insulting had you not specifically pointed it out.  The article states things like this: There is a direct correlation between anger, aggression, and impulsivity.  An indirect correlation exists between anger and internal locus of control (thereby creating an increase of external locus of control).  Such evidence is provided by the random sample of elementary school students representing the population.  The manner in which the pathway to aggression were created were through cognitive schema and impulsivity pathway, as defined by the operationally defined variables.
Vocabulary Required to Fully Comprehend the Above: Anger (simple words like this have a more specific meaning in Psychology), Aggression, Impulsivity, Indirect/Direct Correlation, Internal/External Locus of Control, Random Sample, Population, Cognitive, Schema, Operationally Defined Variables.
See???


Also, Jub3r7, does frivolous count as a translation???

I think someone should just start a thread for these kind of things


So Im convinced that the theory of brushing your teeth makes them healthy is completely fake. I literally clean my teeth no less than 3 times a day, and yet when I went to the dentist today I had 5 beginnings of cavities. FIVE. Not to mention the overwhelming smell of flouride in my mouth that smells so bad it actually hurts my nose. Today was horrible, and the surprise dentist's trip didnt make it any better.

This show is sooooo addicting, and I hate it for that.

So apparently, on Sunday, my school was having an open house, and our "School Administrator", as he is called, was outside in the parking lot taking pictures of all the families coming in to check out the school. Well, I wasn't there to witness it and nobody has figured out why this happened as of yet, but something caused him to faint while in the parking lot. He fell like a tree backwards and cracked his head on the pavement, sending blood flying everywhere. He passed out, obviously, and was quickly rushed the the hospital. At first, the doctors were "hesitantly optimistic", whatever the heck that means, but now they say that he's showing little sign of improving, and may die soon. He was an elderly man, lived a good, long life. Never married because of his position in the Catholic Church, but his siblings are still alive, and his family, as well as my school, is in utmost turmoil. And I'm specifically upset because I never really got a chance to know this guy.  :'(

I have to agree with you there. As it turns out, the show's a little rigged. My friend did way better, but he had almost no chance. First off, the girl he went against had backing vocals, which nobody even knew were permitted, and that was one of the reasons why they thought the girl was better than him. Plus, in the middle of his song, as he belted out a note, someone clapped and the judges thought he was done. At least they liked him, though. One judge said that, "I have a bottle of wine older than you!"

Quote from: Jamaha on November 18, 2012, 02:39:54 PMNothing like going to the laundry room to wash a couple of machinefuls of laundry and noticing that the payment system is broken - no washing machines can be activated.

Oh the luxuries of a washing machine in the apartment. Maybe someday.
Don't worry Jamaha! I'll invent a teleporter, so we can do your laundary for you when the machines aren't working...! Or, then again...

Nothing like having the entire building evacuated because of an incident that only occurred in the basement that was actually just a freakin false alarm.  They called ~10 fire trucks and blockaded the road just for a gas leak that didn't exist.

Then again I guess if it was a gas leak and it exploded it would be kinda bad huh

I just found out from the French guy that he had a really easy time in the class that my professor is being crazy in this semester. 

Then another classmate told me last year that her class was made up of those really hot guys that were also in my organic chemistry class. :(

Say, is there anyone who wants to take quantum chemistry with me next semester? :D Someone handsome and willing to sit in the front row all year. The prerequisite for that class is physics II and calculus II, but more math is recommended xD

I'm not doing badly in her class, I got an A in her last exam, but things could always be a little easier for me, you know? xD Also it's not going to be easy, the Greek guy in my class was really, really good looking and fit and the Italian guy apparently looked like Fernando.

I just noticed that you can go back 4 pages and BP's post is always on top.

Just as a piece of advice, BP: Posting in general isn't bad, but you're commenting on things a little too much. Just like if you're in a group with 20 people and one person always keeps barging in on the conversation when other people want a turn to talk, posting ever other or every third post in a forum isn't always the best thing to do.

Or this could just be my pet peeve, and no one else cares.

hey, man, I know how you feel about the irl thing. A lot of us do, and that's why we're such a close-knit community here at NSM. Not saying that its a superficial club, we just generally have a hard time adjusting to the freshness of new members (OMG, FSM was the worst *coughcough* ;) ) that we may be kind of harsh at first, but with a little space, I guarantee you, every single one of us will open up eventually.

Those last 4 pages were incredibly entertaining to read.

And now I interrupt the funness of it all for something nobody cares about:

I'm currently sending this from the plane. We are stranded here cause the e-brake apparently isn't working. Took 30 minutes for maintenance to even GET here. Hrmm. Apparently we will deboard via slide if they can't get it fixed, since the jetway conveniently broke too -.-. Can't wait to be done with this. Damn you Delta.

The spurs were freaking my dog, Chloe, out big time. Fred says something like 'I showered and everything idk why the damn dogs are scared of me.' Rude ass fucker. I don't know why my uncle didn't ask him to take off his fucking boots.

People die everyday. "While you're still alive, someone's breathing their last breath."

About this 2012 thing... I always wonder... What if the world already did end? But we didn't notice? Maybe our memories have been altered to think nothing has happened, and we're just thinking we're proceeding with our "supposedly normal lives"? I can't explain my thinking any more simpler. This is a paradox of some kind. xD

basically, everyone is like dead/asleep, and think that the life they are living is reality, when it's just a realistic program made by these evil robots, while their actual body is in some tank in a flying spaceship that is simultaneously battling the evil robots. A select few are pulled from this "reality" and control the ship and learn special fighting techniques to battle the robots and control the Matrix program.

I don't know what I'm talking about, I've only seen the first one and that was like 3 years ago.

So I was invited by the theater director at my school to be a part of the Summit program-A workshop ON BROADWAY where we can hear feedback from real casting directors, and even audition if we want. The opportunity was so overwhelmingly amazing, but there were only 20 spots. When I went home, my parents were fighting (like they usually do). When I brought it up, they were too busy to notice me, even when I was trying to explain that all of the spots would be taken up that night. I finally convinced them to sign up the next day, but I ended up being the 22nd person on the list. The director said that she would try to get us in, and let us know how it turned out. That was 3 weeks ago. Today I went into the choir room, only to walk in on the 20 students during a rehearsal for the fundraiser concert they were having for the Summit program. So, apparently, "I'll try to get you in and tell you what happens" means "Sorry, you can't go, but I don't feel like telling you that." The worst part is, some of the people who got in aren't even serious about acting or singing, they're just doing it because their friends are. Considering that, for years now, one of my biggest career goals was to be on Broadway, I'm a little upset. And of course by "a little" I mean "I'm screaming on the inside right now."

Don't worry: if some of the people aren't serious about it, they probably won't stay for very much longer. If they don't have their hearts in the right place, they won't be in that place, so to say.

Soooooo, like 3 weeks ago I put a request in to get this Saturday off so I could go to a concert. Bought the ticket since I'd never had problem with getting a day off with proper notice. But chance would have it that my manager decided to schedule me for a double shift. Fucking wonderful. Now I'm scrambling to get people to cover my shifts. And if I can't, $60 go down the fucking drain. Not to mention missing Flogging Molly, Of Monster and Men,and Silver Sun Pickups in concert.

Wow. So my bf is mad because I didn't wait for him when our class ended. I went back to my room because I'm hungry as hell and I have a class this afternoon, and I had some things to take care of as well. I sent him a text message telling him that I was going back to my room, and that I could only see him on Sunday since I work back at home this weekend and I'm leaving tonight. He has to take care of something for our student's association and he told me he'd have to do it after our class ended. Apparently that meant he has to take care of whatever the thing is at noon, and now I'm a bitch who's always angry blablablablah. Also when I left he was talking to our teacher (which happens to be one of our friends who's a couple of years older) and I knew he'd talk to him for a while. I decided to wait a bit outside the classroom, but he never came, so I left. Since I have a class that ends at 3:20 and he has to leave for work at 3:30 this afternoon I probably won't be able to see him before I leave, but it's all my fault for not understanding that "after class" did not mean right after class.

Yesterday I had a choir rehearsal, and we were singing this song. I noticed that, out of the four people in my section, I was the only one singing the right notes. After confirming this with the conductor, everyone else in the section stopped singing because they didn't know the right notes. So, there I was, singing alone, and at the end of the song everyone applauded. But, not for me. This little kid in front of me, Reese, was in the spotlight. Even though he didn't sing anything! He's not even that good of a singer (I'm not trying to be mean, but he never practices). Everyone was saying he had the voice of an angel or something like that. Reese didn't confess that he didn't sing, he just took all of the credit. When I tried to explain that it was actually me, everyone turned on me, calling me a self-concerned maniac. At the end of rehearsal, no one would talk to me. They all just walked away when I approached them. I lost at least 10 friends yesterday, all because I stepped up to sing for my section when nobody else would.

Quote from: BonusPwnage on November 30, 2012, 02:07:46 PMYesterday I had a choir rehearsal, and we were singing this song. I noticed that, out of the four people in my section, I was the only one singing the right notes. After confirming this with the conductor, everyone else in the section stopped singing because they didn't know the right notes. So, there I was, singing alone, and at the end of the song everyone applauded. But, not for me. This little kid in front of me, Reese, was in the spotlight. Even though he didn't sing anything! He's not even that good of a singer (I'm not trying to be mean, but he never practices). Everyone was saying he had the voice of an angel or something like that.

There are times when you just need to get a mace and swing it at some people...
But, even if you want to, don't... :P

Also, those "friends," it seems, aren't exactly so friendly; what I mean is that they're not TRUE friends.

Omgwtf how does that even happen...

Some idiot on craigslist posted an ad to sell his used car but put my phone number on it. I got calls/texts today asking about it. After going "wtf wrong number" on the first guy, yelling at the second person and getting the third person to text me the link to the listing, I reported it to craigslist and they took down the ad. People are stupid...now I hope these callers delete my number. Most of them were smart enough to use google voice though.

Also I tutored someone today but didn't think I got paid enough. And I might have a cold now.

I got points taken off a programming assignment because the runner prompted the user for information instead of me just hardcoding it. The guy next to me did the same thing, but "he didn't do it as much", so he didn't lose any points.

Who wants to play 'How was ETF a moron today?'

Did she...

A. Hit her head and get a concussion
B. Go to the store, leave her card there, drive across town, realize she forgot her card, drive all the way back only to realize her card was in the car
C. Spill soda on her keyboard

If you guessed B and C, you're right!

I blame my mother for B. She does that type of shit all the time. I was at this store, left to get food and just as I was about to pay I was like 'omg I forgot my card at this other place I'll be back.' so I drive all the way across down and just as I'm pulling in I'm like 'Wait, that lady gave me my card. I KNOW she did!' and I see my card on the floor. Fucking hell.

In reference to C, I was moving my laptop from the bed to the desk and I also had a soda. I was thinking 'this is a bad idea... nah I've got a good hold on both things' THEN I tripped over a fucking cord. Spilled soda on the keyboard. Had to buy a keyboard to hook to it. Also my computer took like 20 times to turn on without beeping at me like crazy. I won't be getting a new laptop for another month or 2. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

(Warning, heavy profanity)

"OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD WHY DID YOU PICK ANIME ITS  SHITAS YOU PEOPLE LIKE ANIME YOUR WEEBS YOUR GAY YOU HAVE NO DICK AGOEUIH(AWBUGFAPW(EGBU*AWP(G*B&AWGUIBAWIGUBAWIGUB"

I don't have my car because something broke on it. Well thanks for telling me. Now I have an expensive ticket and no way to go see the damn show.  Two other friends of mine are going: I asked one of them if I could go with him, but he didn't reply to my message even though he saw it, and my other friend's car is already full.

Not enough time in the world to do everything I'd like to.

It's finally finals week (well, first final is tomorrow) and the quarter is FINALLY over! Being an RA is a difficult job because of the hours and the constant social contact (and the reason why I am so drained -- maybe that's the reason why I went to bed at 6 AM).

I guess I bid adieu for now... I am for sure to be back on at points throughout the coming months (I really hope).

That's nice, but you don't have to deal with us everyday in person. It seems you post to complain about your friends every few days, and it's usually about transportation of some sort.

Speaking of transportation, last Thursday I had to go home when I was hanging out with friends. So after I left, the only other person with a car, an asshole who I've ranted about before, decided that he was too low on gas to take anyone home, so my friends ended up having to walk two hours to get one kid home, two of them had to do a two hour trip somewhere else, then one had to walk another 15 miles or so to get back to his house, but luckily was stopped by a police officer who was kind enough to give him a lift.

Best part is that they saw the asshole's car broken down on the side of the road. But seriously, I hope everyone else has finally had it with that kid as much as I have.

Nah, it just so happened that the guy who's been telling me for a while "Hey I'll take you to that show I'm going as well!" fucked up my plans a little because he decided not to take me there anymore without telling me, and that the latest example I had of my friend(s) being dumbass was also about transportation. But don't worry, they're just assholes in general. It's not just about that. They're going to brag about this party (or whatever they do really) they're having without inviting me even though I'm right next to them. And then they complain because I didn't go to their party/whatever. Well bitch you didn't invite me. And there's also more stuff but I'm too lazy to type. It's k though, I made some good friends while studying at university. And I'm not the kind of person who likes to interact with people that much, but hey, I know that if I had to see you guys everyday I'd like it, 'cause the majority of the people on here are awesome.

Oh my god. So I get out of my dorm room to go to the bathroom, and my neighbor's outside (I guess she was getting back to her own room after going to class or something). She then tells me "Hey, I need to talk to you". Please note that she's my fucking annoying neighbor who likes to party until fucking 4 am. On Tuesdays. And pretty much on every day of the week actually. And sometimes she sing really loud and it's annoying. So yeah, she wanted to talk to me. Apparently, the fact that I use an alarm clock to wake up at 7 when I have classes at 8 is unacceptable. 'cause you know, my alarm clock is annoying her. So I shouldn't use it. Or I shouldn't let it ring for a long time. It takes me like 5 seconds to turn my alarm off. But OH GOD IT'S FUCKING UNACCEPTABLE I'M WAKING HER UP
Bitch. I hope she moves out of here after Christmas. That's one of the dumbest things I've heard in a really long time.

I'm not a wimp- I'm an Alaskan. But there comes a point when you shovel out all the snow from around your tires and your wheels STILL spin that is really pissing me off. I've been driving since the downfall began, and I'm still not happy that we have like 5 more months of this...and it can only get worse. But honestly, I've never seen so much snow come down in so little time.

Who's going to be looking at you anyway? Are you traveling with someone you know or are you going to be sittting next to a complete stranger? I know from experience that when I see someone playing a ds its extremely hard to actually see what game their playing.

And today I got home from school, realized I have 4 tests tomorrow and didnt bring anything to study, was dragged out of the house to do absolutely nothing until 9, then saw that my Pikachu pillow pet lost its ear. Also I've had a horrible stomachache and headache all day long

Do you play any instrument besides the piano (sorry if you said it before)? The violin was ALOT harder for me to learn than the piano. Theres so much going on at once: you have to have the correct (and sometimes unconfortable) bow hold, get your fingers on the EXACT spot on the string, play in the correct spot on the strings, curve your wrist with the bow's direction, move your elbow for each string, I could go on forever. If one of these is wrong it makes the whole song sound messy and scratchy

Im not trying to dissuade you from playing it, but its alot harder than I expected it to be

Funny part is I was sitting next to a really attractive native to Hawaii. She's a lifeguard. But she just talked to her mom the whole time and we didn't really talk outside of the "hello we're going to be sharing this armrest for almost 10 hrs I should probably at least know your name."

Lol I know you're not saying that to me but I never really learned piano so I wouldn't know. You stop thinking about 1, 3, 4, 5 after the first few lessons. I'm working on 2, but Saria just knows the approximate position to hold the string and if she doesn't, she autocorrects based on what note just ended up just playing. Our teacher doesn't let us use tape so we have no choice xD

Also you forgot you have that you have to move the bow at a certain speed and sight read, blah blah blah...

Placement on the string isnt too hard for me, but its been 2 years and my teacher said I literally just learned how to hold the bow correctly without my fingers sliding when I move my arm and wrist. She gave me tapes, and also these weird things to put on the strings so I dont accidently play over my bridge. Thats probably my main problem; I just cant keep the bow in one spot and it slides all over the strings

I have been suffering from Osgood-Schlatter's disease since the beginning of September. :(
I thought Osgud-Schlatter was jus some weird knee/bone disorder that was pretty common. I didn't know it was a disease.

One day in 7th grade, my cousin and I were running around, when she tripped me on the sidewalk. I ripped my jeans, as well as a large patch of a skin, and my knee has had this weird, boney bump int it's place ever since. The doctor told me THAT was what was called Osgud-Schlatter...

Idk. Now I'm just got a deformed leg with that weird bumpy thing.

Yeah. I'm having the same problem.  I usually tend to accidentally move the bow into an oblique rather than parallel position and the notes always sound so bad!  I'm having trouble making notes sound clean and not squeaky when I slur them together as well.
But these things will improve with practise, I'm sure.  So keep practising you two!!!  And I shall do the same!

All my tall friends have that disorder, and the doctors are confused as to why I dont. Apparently it has something to do with rapid growth and certain body parts not growing as fast as everything else, which pretty much describes my life.

Waddle, how tall are you? FSM said he was really tall, like six four or something (I know you guys use centimeters, right?)

I don't care how hard it is, if I want to be a film composer I should play more than just the piano. I can write for any instrument, I just would like to be able to play a string instrument. Cello or violin preferably.

I think that only happens when you're nervous xD Something about making sure your arm isn't moving in a curve. I don't know how to solve that if it's a recurring problem, but maybe taping your shoulder still so it doesn't get to move? XD But seriously...that's a lot of things to learn violin with...how does your hand slide all over the bow ???

Making the notes sound good only seems to happen when you practice a lot...XDDD

Being a composer doesn't mean you need to be able to play multiple instruments (though it doesn't hurt, and allows you to do more on your own), but you do need to know how the instruments you are writing for work at a very high, technical level. Knowing the instrument is probably more important than playing it while writing the music, also have access to musicians to spot check sections for you is good for the learning part of composition.

By all means, learn additional instruments because it'll help you think like that kind of instrumentalist when writing music, but it isn't necessary. Composer and performer are two different roles, often not held by the same person these days.

Bf and I decided to visit his parents this weekend, and we planned to leave tomorrow morning, because we have a final tomorrow afternoon. The problem is that there's going to be a huge snowstorm tomorrow, and it's going to start tonight and end tomorrow night. Bf doesn't want to leave too early because he doesn't get to see his family too often. I get that, but I don't want to drive in the middle of a storm. Plus it takes 2 hours and a half to get back to school, and since there's a snowstorm it's probably going to take 3 hours and a half. And it's Christmas next week: we're visiting his family again because of that. Also his family is really pushing us because they don't want us to leave early. Geez it's like no one around me fucking thinks.

Studying for tomorrow's exam - guess not. So I doubt that'll go all that well either. Good thing there's another exam for both of the classes in January. Oh wait, they are exactly at the same time. Failing at least one of them, then.

This semester didn't exactly go according to the plan.

I had to write a French paper (6 pages) about the law in France that requires workers to work a max of 35 hours a week instead of 40.

Brought up jobs crisis in the world and managed to talk two pages about the job issues in the US and some bases on the 2008 financial crisis.

I got an 88.

I'm really annoyed by this thing they call Internet. Let me tell you why.

During the last 3-4 years I've had three awesome communities with people I really liked and had much in common. There was no such day when we weren't in contact. Few of them I met in person and they all were just as nice irl too. Many irl friends just have gone their own ways and many of them are just jerks so it was so great to have that kind of communities with people I really liked. Chatting with them was a big part of daily life. Ninsheetmusic is a good community too so I guess many of you understand what I'm saying.

So the annoying part is? GODDAMN LOVE TRIANGLES. There were love triangle situations in two of these communities and they led to that sort of drama that none of us is talking to each other anymore. And that is very sad. All of them were people who I really was taken liking to. Guess it can't be helped.

WaddleBro, I love youuu.
Don't feel down, maybe things will improve later!  Maybe you'll get a Wii U later in time, when there are more games for it and it's cheaper (giving the possibility of more games being bought for you!).  Sometimes, you have to be patient, even when unfair or troublesome things occur.  Things wouldn't improve if one ranted of them instead of trying to solve the problem!

Yeah, really I don't think getting a WiiU now is worth it. It'll be cheaper next year, plus there aren't a lot of games released yet... imho there's nothing really interesting to play at the moment. That's why I didn't buy it.

Ugh I'm sick again QQ Tried to go to the hospital to get some medicine yesterday but I didn't feel like waiting for at least 6 hours so I went back home. At least I feel a little better today...

I most likely won't get to open any presents until both of my sisters come home from Europe, because they, ya know, didn't invite me to go. When do they get back? About two days before school gets back. So that's

1. I'm trapped in my house with no one but my parents.
2. I only get about a 2~3 day margin in which to mess around with my new stuff
And to top it all off,
3. I have an entire unit of homework I have to do.

Worst break ever. >:(

Watching their reactions is a lot more fun, yeahhh XD And how'd they be happy getting toys for Christmas, etc.

So, was playing Eclipse with some friends and other people. The game took something like 8 hours. I guess it could have been fun if I didn't get my fleet annihilated halfway through the game and then spend the rest of it trying to get back into the game while getting kicked back down whenever I got something done.

I'd really like to know why I'm pretty much invisible to people all the time except when playing board games.

I know what that's like... I have to finish one PE essay (1-2 pages, almost nothing, if the topic wasn't so narrow), one Health essay (same as PE), write notes for Biology finals, do a "Key Assignment" for Algebra II (long and synthetic division, something I haven't yet studied in my curriculum), and grades for Algebra II (in highschool, the homeschool program I use doesn't do them) before Monday (when Winter Break ends).

Well the problem is that the first few episodes have moments that are exactly like what you mention. You kinda need to see the whole series before you start to appreciate it, which is quite a bit of digging to find the good stuff. On the other hand, I don't know anyone who's watched the whole thing and didn't like it at least a little bit.

This guy I haven't talked to for almost 5 years is trying to talk to me on facebook for the past week. Same guy that used to annoy the crap out of me when I was 12 by burping all the time and laughing at his own jokes.

Also I heard another classmate I knew in fifth grade just got engaged. That's kind of depressing but I said that to really make a contrast between me and all the people I went to school with. Why am I the only one that still likes to read, study and be left alone?

I'm no good with the ladies.

I want to get myself a girl, but I know that it'd be no good for me, as I have way too much on my plate to focus on something like that. Les Mis was a great movie, but it just exemplified the fact of how lonely I am in my day-to-day life, and I can't wait to get out on my own journey, adventure, that takes me away and to new experiences, where maybe then I can meet a girl who will be fit for me...

Ah, fate is a heartless bitch.

No good with the ladies? Pssh. It's just that every lady you try to be good with is too insensitive and heartless to be worthy enough for you!
Whisper of the Heart did the same thing to me, except I dont really feel like it. Sure it'd be nice, but Im a lazy :P

It's not all it's cracked up to be -.- Besides I don't think you'd know who they are until at least a few more years. Wasn't I just complaining about how different my classmates ended up being? And this was only after a few years. Sure, they might be cute today but what if they turn into women who like all sorts of frivolous things like expensive dinners/diamonds/alcohol more than their boyfriends? Haha.

Well, I did, but for some reason my computer kept saying that my version of windows was counterfeit (even though it wasnt) and wanted me to spend $9001 on the actual version, when this one worked fine for me. The built in security system decided not to work either and wanted me to spend ninrty to get that. I tried downloading a free program but I think the virus is preventing me from doing it.

I don't know how these work, as I've never had to try them before, or even if you can use them without Norton already on your computer... I'd at least want you to give you the option to try something, possibly.

1. Not everyone is into Haruhi Suzumiya--you shouldn't feel left out with that. In fact, us non-Doctor Whovians felt the same way about that show when everyone was obsessed with it!
2. I don't think there are as many inside jokes as it seems--and really I don't get 75% of them anyway.
3. Like 40% of the site arranges, and about 20% arranges well--again, don't feel bad.
4. You're special because you contribute to the site in your own ways, by contributing art and Let's Plays (the latter very dedicatedly I might add) as well as participating in a lot of the forum activities.

I don't want to get too sentimental, but I know you feel like I'm too harsh sometimes. I probably am, and I wholeheartedly apologize for that. It's just I hate being fake and if something annoys me I'm not going to lie and say it doesn't bother me. :/ I need to keep my mouth shut more often than I do and word things more tactfully. You're important to the site, and you're important to me, so please don't leave.

Knowing how to turn anything into a weapon can be a handy skill, whether it be a close hanger/paintbrush into a bow and arrow or my bony hand into a shanking device.

God damnit, you'd think game capture would be a painless process, but noooo, it has to be all "I'm going to drop 20 frames now for no reason!" I just want one playthrough to not be plagued with so many issues.

Actually, Bulbasaur, even with its elemental wakness, has the most advantage over the other starters. Also It's a drainer pokemon, and drainers are the best.

Bulbasaur > all. Fact.

Also, going to the math exam today was interesting. According to the registration system the exam was supposed to be in lecture hall C. Unfortunately the closest entrance to the building was blocked by the construction work. So I went to the next entrance, which was locked. Third entrance then, on the other side of the building. There I find a note on the door stating that the exam is actually in hall M, which, due to the construction, was actually not accessible via that door. So I walked to yet another door before getting to the right place. Fun.

So I asked around here and a bunch of people were nice enough to help.

I'm still having trouble.

It's impossible.

I don't feel like doing this anymore.

Guise, Shadowkirby's mad at me and I don't know how to make him feel better...

His reason for being angry with me is legitimate, but slightly out of my control. I'll explain: He's mad at me because I oftentimes refuse to do things with him such as hang out or Facebook-skype with him, while he never refuses to do me a favor every now and then...While that's true, and I have no other excuse as to my behavior, I'm only expressing the answer that's best for me...

My parents are bonkers, and they are never really satisfied with me, what with taking multiple advanced classes, i.e. more homework. Instead of asking my parents whether or not I can go over to his house or Facebook-skype with him, I simply say no because 8/10 times I'm not done with my homework yet, and if my parents were to know that (they know like everything, its scary) then they would say no anyways...and While I realize that those things are mostly out of my control, the rest of my decisions are normally based on my current mood, which is normally pretty cruddy.

So, in effect, Shadowkirby, if you're reading this (you probably are), I deeply apologize for being an ass of a friend, like you've tolerated for a while. I'll try to correct my inappropriate refusals, and in turn you might want to slow down on all the work that I didn't ask you to do...

My roommate left and I have no idea where she is. She won't tell me and she seems upset. I'm worried I scared her off. I feel like she's doing everything in her power to never have to be in our room for more than 2 seconds.

I'm doubtful that you of all people would have done something to offend her.  I suggest confronting her about and explicitly telling her that you're worried and to ask whether you've done something wrong.

If she still refuses to answer, I suggest waiting it out and hoping for the best.  And if things still remain the same, ask her what's wrong again and tell her you're there for her.

My bus driver hit another car on the way home from school today. It really wasnt bad at all and no one got hurt, but we had to wait for the police to come and take our names/addresses/birthdates before we could finally leave. It was amusing at first because of all the jokes my bus driver was making but we were just sitting there for an hour before we finally continued our 45 min drive home -.-

Just message him about your having a bad day and leave it be for the time being, I think.  Since you were stressed, he'll cool down eventually and certainly forgive you.

In regard to what's stressing you, don't let your friend being angry be an extra stress factor; he's your friend, he'll understand you were having a bad day.  Just focus on what you need to do and everything will be fine.  And if not, remember that you're super ultra coll and stress is always underneath you!!!

It was supposed to be a productive club

I went there and everybody was playing minecraft or halo or wandering into the robotics room next door

or chasing each other with yard sticks
actually that wasn't until I joined and started chasing people with yard sticks

Our chapter is very productive; we don't have anything like that.

But I kind of wish we did.

Really, though, you should have done something so you could come to the TSA State Conference and meet me. It's not too late--just sign up for extemporaneous speaking or something that you go there and do, rather than a project you have to prepare in advance.

So, in the past ten days, these are the things I've had to do:

Six UTs (kinda like online quizzes with a deadline rather than a time limit)
Three Physics bookwork sets
My Physics final (I left early last semester)
An essay about a columnist
About 100 calculus problems
Two physics homework assignments
A take home test for physics (yep, more physics)
A timed test over the weekend for gov't
A paragraph-long video response on MLK Jr.'s last speech
A band concert
A band performance for eighth graders
A comp sci quiz that I missed because of the band concert
And other miscellaneous stuff for other classes that probably took an hour's total work

I want to smash my head into a wall.

Hmmmm all this talk about death. But why are we sad about it? People die, unfortunately. Wait, is it unfortunate? I don't think so. Because your death results in the sprouting of new and beautiful life! Death is just a necessary for life as life itself. It's best just to accept it and embrace it than try to fight it. I have multiple people dear to me who have passed away for many reasons: drug overdose, cancer, stroke. I don't know if their souls went to a better place, but I know their bodies did. They became one with with the Earth in every physical sense. It is the greatest honor one could have.To destroy the Earth as much as we do in our lifetimes and still be embraced by it fully in death. That is my benevolent creator. That is my God. The Earth and all of its beauty.

Anyway, I got hit in the face with the ball. Multiple times. My nose is on fire and I'm pretty sure Im going to wake up tomorrow with black eyes, along with my knees bleeding and my finger jammed

But yeah it was a good game

Dude, I know how it feels to lose a grandparent. While I only have two remaining (My father's dad died when I was just a baby, so I don't have any memory of him), I was only 8 years old when my grandma was taken from me.

While being 8 years old, I didn't quite associate with death very well, and so I wasn't quite as emotional as I had wanted to be, I suppose. Now you, you are a grown man, and you have had your grandparents all your life. I can't imagine the troubled heart you must feel, having all those years being dragged away from you, while some of us were only children. But on that same note- you are a man. and I know that even with the loss of your beloved grandmother, you can still rise above it. Losing loved ones is a natural part of life that everyone must go to, and someone somewhere else wanted your grandmother to be with them instead of here. Hopefully somewhere better than here.

So instead of being down and sad, just think of how much she loved you and that now this is her time of peace to be somewhere loving and happy while she looks down on you living through her memory.

Good luck, my man.

What the fuck will that do? If you're going to say something to make me feel a bit better when you know I'm not Christian, just say something like "I'll keep you in my thoughts.", because when you say you're praying for me that pisses me off incredibly.

I never understood how people were bothered by that.  Doodle, I know that you're agitated from bereavement, but a remark like that is incredibly sincere.  Something like "I'll keep you in my thoughts" is trite and general.  When someone says he/she'll "keep you in his/her prayers," there's a sympathy that is incurred.  Few people make quick, apathetic prayers.  When someone makes one, he/she does so with emotion and care.  Interpret it this way: "Under the presumption that a supreme being exists, I will pray to such a being for your and your grandmother's benefit, and since I pray multiple times a day, I will remember you and your unfortunate loss various times and sympathise with you in the hopes that good will come your way or that I may somehow help you through some means."
Or you could also treat it as a different person's way of expressing sympathy that equates to being "I'll keep you in my thoughts" (though, I don't see why this would be preferred; keeping someone in one's thoughts isn't likely to occur actively and one is more likely to think of you if he/she prays).

Would one also be offended if I said "Bless you." when he/she sneezes?

But anyhow, since you don't desire for me to pray for you also, I'll keep you in my thoughts and I hope your circumstances improve.

So. I was watching How I Met Your Mother and an episode kinda hit home for me.

SPOILERS MAYBE POSSILY. SEASON 8.

Okay so Barney and Robin are engaged and trying to get her father's permission. Robin gives her father a little speech about how she wants him at her wedding. How she wants him to walk her down the isle and give her away and dance with her.

SPOILERS OVER

This hit home for me because of my daddy issues. I suddenly realized my father will never be at my wedding. He will not walk me down the isle. He will not give me away. He will not give me a father/daughter dance. I have an  uncle who will probably do it when I get married because he's always been there for me and I grew up with him but it's like. It sucks knowing that it won't be my father. And it just ties into all my daddy issues. #daddyissues #sadness

Your father is a dick(sorry, but in that case it's true). Why wouldn't he come at your wedding?! I mean, you haven't done anything bad, have you?

He's never been there for me. He left when I was young, I've met him since but he's not a dad to me. So I'm never gonna have a dance with my daddy who I love or anything like that. And it hurts. Especially since my sisters, who he was there for, will probably have that.

Man, that guy is a class A arsehole. Don't you dare give him the honor of walking you down the isle, EFT. And don't you dare let him beat you, by making you sad. Don't let him ruin your life because he's a dick face.

No, Clanker. Just no. He's definitely not an asshole.

Just because ETF hasn't bonded so well with her father, it doesn't mean her father is a dick. I haven't bonded so well with my own father, too. My parents broke up when I was 2 and since my father had serious problems with his anger management and usage of alcohol, me and my sister hardly even saw him in the many years of our childhood. But he got better. We still aren't so bonded, but he's definitely not a dick because he left us.
My stepfather has been more of a father to me than my biological one, but I still love him more then anyone could describe.

ETF, you should still ask him to walk you down the isle or at least invite him in your wedding. After all, he is your real father.

XD I KNOW, but I just felt like being a total prick for a second.

Sorry if I'm distracting us away from ETF's issue. But I thought LEVITY TIME.

Despite always being super sexy advice guru on things, I really don't know what to say that hasn't been said. All I can say is, you've got awhile before you get married(not counting internet marriages), so you could try to patch things up with him. Maybe he's a good person, maybe he wants to have a closer relationship with you but just doesn't know where to begin. If you want him at your wedding, first he needs to actually be your father again.Then he'll be the father you want to be there and the father that deserves to be there. So just try reconnecting with him in some way. You've got awhile to do it.

Maybe you've already tried this with no success, but that's all I got.

You should phone his and ask him how he's doing.

FSM is right: you need to try and patch the father-daughter relationship before it completely shatters and has no hope of being repaired: if something happens to one of you, then you'll never get the chance to truly know and care for each other like family should.

oh my god

Shes constantly talking about her old school, a public school which is known for being filled with druggies and criminals (even though its just a regular public school). She transferred into my high school, a college preparatory school. SOO she decided that since shes so educated from that other school that she has the privledge to constantly rant about how the education at my school is bad, blah blah blah we're so far behind and if she went back to the public school she'd get into a much better college.

She spent the whole 45 minute bus ride to school saying how Latin in her other school was a college course and how our school doesnt offer that so shes stuck in the regular class. Yeah. Thats why youre in Latin I.

AND SHES IN ALL OF MY CLASSES. ALL OF THEM.

Okay so I hate people complaining and being melodramatic about their lives, but I need to be a hypocrite and do the same, at least for a little while.

I really wish I had a best friend. Like, a guy I could just do stupid stuff with. And who knows me really well and whom I could always rely on. I don't have a best friend, and especially lately it's really bumming me out. I haven't gotten depressed in a long time (probably been at least a year) but to be honest, it's really depressing me lately. I really wish I had someone like that, and I just don't. You know how sometimes you feel left out because everyone around you has a boyfriend or girlfriend, and you're single? Similar situation.

I just really want someone like that. I don't have a real best friend and I've been feeling super lonely. I want a best friend so badly. It really depresses me that I don't have one.

That's all. Okay, I'm done being melodramatic.

The only reason Slow doesn't have a best friend is because he can't decide who's "best" between his abundance of friends.

But for srs, have you invested time into someone that you get along with? (that sounds like dating advice oops ::)). But what I mean is-- when you go somewhere, do you invite that person to go? etc. Really it seems like best friends come from people who start as just friendly strangers who have your same interests. If you had to think of someone you know who's like that, who would it be?

Well, for those of you who saw it, I'm glad, but my mom found out about my vlog and she's really pissed. She's taking away my phone, my iPod, and limiting my access of her computer, oh, and I have to take the video down. I don't understand my parents at all anymore.

so if you don't see me around the forums, that's why. Goodbye all, for a while.

I love you guys <3 and I'm lucky to have friends like you. I don't have a right to complain when so many other people have worse problems.

Some parents are such asshats. I like mine because they don't care as long as I'm not costing them any money.

 Though they are under the impression that I'm a gay druggy. Which is only 1/4 true.

But I'm sad, because the possible departure of kman makes the asshat/cool peeps ratio on NSM even more drastic. Though Whir's return does offset it.

An update on the Kman situation:
Kelsey's mom wasn't as mad as he initially thought, and all he had to do was take down the video from YouTube. He still has his iPod, and phone, and he can use his mom's computer still, but he's choosing to take a short hiatus from NSM. During his week at Juneau, he fell very behind on school work, and when his mom kicked him off her computer, he got more homework done than he did that entire week. He came to the conclusion that, while he still loves you guys, his education comes first. Because hey. I'VE got better grades than Kman right now. And he's the smart one.

Hi guys. This is totes unrelated to my absence (I'm still kinda on hiatus, I just need to share something.):

Ugh. I had my one chance for the day, and I completely blew it. Somebody else made her day when it was my task to accomplish. I have only a week left until the execution of the plan, and after today's shoddy results, signs aren't looking so good. I only have 4 or 5 shots left. I can't miss anymore. I have to nail every. Single. One. Or else.

I haven't felt this way in a long time. Especially about somebody else. I'm captivated, and if I don't act soon, that captivation will be replaced with a much more putrid emotion. And emotion so awful and cruel that it's a possibility this rant thread might explode. They are one of the most peculiar I've ever met, yet a very narrow shot at acquisition. It's possible, but after today, not very probable.

God help me.

EDIT: OOH, SPOILER TAGS! :D
My Future Love Life???
Her name is Ayla. She's only a freshman, yet surprisingly older than I am (still younger than shadow, however). She's a bit of a rebel, but in a way that I find attractive rather than dangerous. She's small and thin, fragile, but that doesn't make her any less beautiful with her long blond hair...Ugh. My life.

I can't control it, but no one believes me since it just sounds like I'm pretending >:( Also I've had muscle cramps for a day or two in my feet and forearms, and my hair is falling out.

Was any of that directed at you? No. I don't believe any of these TWO (and they were the only two) negative comments about LPs were talking about yours at all. I really don't know what your deal is. I can't find a single instance of anyone "not giving a shit about you" and in fact you seem to have several people who support everything you do, and yet all you seem to do is complain about how no one likes you.

One thing I (and even my parents) have observed is something like this:
Now, off course, this does not apply to everybody, as situation and circumstance varies from person to person, and some people may just naturally have an addiction to/hatred for sweets.

My OCD always stopped me from eating too much candy/sweets, so my parents really never had to worry. Both my siblings...didnt have that willpower...

I occasionally crave them though, to the point where I NEED them. Which is why I'm angry that my candy stash is gone. My mom said that she threw them away because she thought they were open >.<

Also mini rant: I hate when teachers pick random students to give them answers. They always pick me when I didn't understand a question or when I forgot to answer one. It happened again today, and the teacher had me answering in front of everyone and I had no clue on how to translate a word QQ

So, for the first time in a long time, SFK is sad. Yes, it is Valentine's Day related. No, it's not because of the fact that I don't have one. It's because of someone else having one, and me not being it. It's so not fun when the person you've liked has a significant other.

I'm not talking about dat lesbian. I've tried to get passed this specific person(such as trying to date dat lesbian until I found out she was lesbian), but it usually ends up with me still being alone and them having someone else still. And here I wait.

Okay, I'm done with my sad moment of self-pity. Now to find that bottle of bourbon...

So yesterday I ordered some pizza. I didn't eat all of it because I wanted to keep some for today. Came back from work tonight and my brother ate all of it because our parents are on vacation so "there wasn't anything else to eat". He also said I owed it to him because he had to empty the dishwasher and he hates doing that. Really? Seriously? How fucking lazy/retarded can you be to think people owe you stuff for doing chores in the house? I fucking hate my brother. He's a douchebag who thinks he can do whatever he wants, and all he does is drink beer and yell at me/my parents. Hopefully I'm moving in a couple of months... I can't stand him.

This guy has a really big head and he is suppose to be a 'hardy'. He smokes, drinks, takes drugs but is the biggest weirdo ever, I hate him! I don't hate anyone else in my school but he drives me nuts.

Back to the story;
Right, so at the computers he bites his nails and spits them away. He sucks his fingers and makes this awful sucking sound when he does so. He swings around in his chair making horrid comments about decent people. His big head stays in the corner of my eye the whole time. He kicks my chair and puts his feet up on it.

That must be really annoying. Hmmm, sounds eerily similar to someone I know.

This isn't really anything major, but in my free time at school I go to the library and use the school's sheet music program. It's really cheap, but it's still fine to work with. The point is, I can still use dropbox to save the files. So I finished something this morning during homeroom and I wanted to save it, so I went on dropbox and did. Now it's fourth period, and when I tried to open it through dropbox to show my friend (he's really into music) I couldn't access it. The school blocked it! I don't even understand why. I mean, there's nothing wrong with the site, it's just a way to save files. Well, it's really annoying, since my flash drive came from the paleozoic era (meaning it's really slow). It takes about 15 minutes to get a one page song onto my flash drive, and I really don't have that much time on the computer. Well, I guess it ould be a good thing. Now I can just stick to Finale unless I'm in orchestra class. My orchestra teacher wants all of the students to be able to arrange music on the computer using that stupid program, but since only me and one other student actually like to arrange, it's pretty pointless. Most of the students here don't even care about music. Well, maybe they care a little, but not enough to practice. It sounds like death every rehearsal. Ugh, I'm just ranting on about something that doesn't really matter. Sorry about that.

Quote from: The Boy Who Cried Wolf on February 18, 2013, 12:13:48 PMGrrr, this boy in my computing class is driving me nuts without even saying anything! I have to sit next to him at the computers and he's soo ewwie!

Some background knowledge;
This guy has a really big head and he is suppose to be a 'hardy'. He smokes, drinks, takes drugs but is the biggest weirdo ever, I hate him! I don't hate anyone else in my school but he drives me nuts.

Back to the story;
Right, so at the computers he bites his nails and spits them away. He sucks his fingers and makes this awful sucking sound when he does so. He swings around in his chair making horrid comments about decent people. His big head stays in the corner of my eye the whole time. He kicks my chair and puts his feet up on it. If none of this is bad enough he picks his nose.... AND EATS THE BOOGERSS AERHGFHGDRGJIIUIIIIIIHGFSSAAAAAS!
What a charming young man.

I'm not like ashamed, and seems like a lot of NSMers are so I'm not really worried about being judged.

I still think I'm "more" straight (if you think of it as a sliding scale thing) but it totally blindsided me, I had no idea until a month ago. I doubt I would ever go so far as to actually do anything with a guy, just because being straight is definitely an easier lifestyle. So yeah that's it.

My orchestra teacher had me play the solo violin part to Introduction and Rondo in class today, which I've been practicing for a while.

I can only do so well playing on my acoustic violin (not the one I practice on), in front of everyone, for the first time with the orchestra accompaniment.

TL;DR, I sucked.

Quote from: BonusPwnage on February 19, 2013, 07:57:42 AMThat must be really annoying. Hmmm, sounds eerily similar to someone I know.

This isn't really anything major, but in my free time at school I go to the library and use the school's sheet music program. It's really cheap, but it's still fine to work with. The point is, I can still use dropbox to save the files. So I finished something this morning during homeroom and I wanted to save it, so I went on dropbox and did. Now it's fourth period, and when I tried to open it through dropbox to show my friend (he's really into music) I couldn't access it. The school blocked it! I don't even understand why. I mean, there's nothing wrong with the site, it's just a way to save files. Well, it's really annoying, since my flash drive came from the paleozoic era (meaning it's really slow). It takes about 15 minutes to get a one page song onto my flash drive, and I really don't have that much time on the computer. Well, I guess it ould be a good thing. Now I can just stick to Finale unless I'm in orchestra class. My orchestra teacher wants all of the students to be able to arrange music on the computer using that stupid program, but since only me and one other student actually like to arrange, it's pretty pointless. Most of the students here don't even care about music. Well, maybe they care a little, but not enough to practice. It sounds like death every rehearsal. Ugh, I'm just ranting on about something that doesn't really matter. Sorry about that.

Google drive acts similarly to DropBox. It doesn't have the equivalent of a public folder as far as I know, but if you have a google account you can upload and download from it.

So that girl I was complaining about earlier just turn a major turn for the worse. She threw a fit when she heard some girl complaining about her, and that girl happened to be in our group project group. So now she decided that she wasn't going to do her share of the project because she didn't want the other girl to "get a good grade for [her] good work". She dissapeared and apparently went in the bathroom and cut herself? I'm trying to feel bad but shes just overreacting and blowing EVERYTHING out of proportion so much that its really hard. Come on, finish the fucking project and stop being a baby.

Demand that she accepts a failing grade since she just walked out on the project. If your teacher has been paying attention they'll most likely acquiesce. If not, sue the school.

Youre joking right? We had to pick a person from ancient Rome and some song (or write your own but lolno) and reqrite the lyrics so they're about the person. Then you have to sing the lyrics, record it, and add it to a video of you dancing. Basically making a song with a music video.

But I sung the CHORUS. As in, THE THING THAT REPEATS 3 TIMES

Take away the video games and Wreck-it-Ralph is any other children's movie. Frankenweenie was good, Paranorman was kinda meh. Pirates! Band of Misfits was really the only film that was better than Brave imo.

Frankenweenie and ParaNorman were both better, I thought, in addition to Pirates. Wreck it Ralph was still better than brave, if only a little.

And I don't think Seth MacFarlane is being that offensive. Pretty funny, actually. I just wish his work was better so I could justify liking his personality.

I got my wisdom teeth taken out in June, the day after I came back from a weeklong trip to Oklahoma City. kinda of a bummer...but I got to eat nothing but mac and cheese and potatoes w/gravy for almost 2 weeks!

There was one time, after I woke up, that I just started bawling for no reason...I couldn't feel any pain, I just felt like crying...so I did, with a mouthful of gauze. but other than that, everything felt pretty fine. The annoying part was that, after the surgery, I had to use this weird mouthwash and spray nozzle to rinse out the holes the teeth made. It wasn't altogether bad, so I don't think you should be too afraid.

EDIT: Ninja'd.

So I've been really depressed, pissed off, and full of anxiety lately. And today I decided to take a drive. I didn't have a destination or reason. All I knew was I needed to get away. So I just kept driving. When the road ended, I merged onto the highway. When the highway ended, I moved onto the interstate. And then about 3 hours into my getaway, my car broke down. Got towed back to my house.

If it weren't for breaking down, I guarantee I'd still be driving. And some day, I will get out off here for good. I hate this place and everyone in it.

The broken car? Yes.

The urge to move away? No. I've always planned on leaving Florida. Cuz it sucks here.

But I feel like I've done absolutely nothing with my life. Like I've missed all of life's grand experiences up until this point. And that I'm still just standing motionless, going absolutely nowhere. And everyone around me seems so fucking content with going nowhere. Content with not wanting anything more than sitting around, staying in their shells. I hate it.

I've always told myself I'd live my life so that I wouldn't have any regrets. But I'm fucking 18 years old and I already have regrets of what I could have and should have done. And it's eating me up.

The best years of your life are still ahead of you. People don't usually look back and say that the restrictive years of elementary, middle, and high school were their fondest memories. I think a better way to look at it is that you're only 18 years old. What were you hoping to have done by now? Assuming you're in school and possibly working, there's not much more that's expected out of a teenager. At least, that's how I've looked at my life-- the first two decades are like boot-camp, and the rest gives freer reigns.

What "grand experiences" have you missed? Prom? Getting a driver's license? Good friends? I'm just trying to think of what you've missed that makes you feel like you've done nothing.

I'm always thinking about this.

About how I want to get out of this hole they call California (except SLO, I love SLO).

I am always thinking that I can always do more.. that I need to get out of my bubble to really experience life and do the things I want. I tell myself that I don't want to live in some mundane rut where people are blissfully ignorant about doing meaningful things.

I tell myself that the little things are meaningful. THe fact I make someone's day or that a little bit of rain making the hills green makes everything seem fresher.

Just don't let it get to you. Find opportunities to get out of Florida the right way, and eventually doors are opening. If you don't let it get to you and focus your attention on the basic tasks to get you out of Florida, then you might be able get your mind off other problems. Get your plans in order before you just take off.

You have your life ahead of you, so go for it!!

So here's my rant story:

Over the past few weeks, we have had residents drawing penises on posters and stuff that we put up. All us RAs had meetings with my residents about this and empower them to fix these issues.

They then broke markers and drew them all over the walls, which prompted me and another RA to remove the furniture from the room.

Now, here's the HUGE deal.

They got my car.... MY FREAKING CAR..

They keyed it. THey drew penises. they wrote faggot. they glued fake plastic trees to my mirrors.

So I talked to my boss, and called the police... they're processing this as a hate crime and destruction of property.

Whoever this little fucker was who did this will be expelled and prosecuted. Whoever did this did not know that they flushed their life down the toilet... all for what they thought is a harmless prank.

And yet, i'm still calm and collected to not show residents that this is getting to my head

Don't worry, they'll get them. Was it on the security cameras? It's really only a matter of time. I hope the damage doesn't cost too much to repair.

My sister was an RA last year and had some serious problems with a student, but they eventually kicked him out of the dorm, or something like that. Whatever it was, he was brought to justice.

Everything's gonna be alright, I know it.

Would it help- or even be possible to- if you set up a patrol to search around/in the building in order to deter this sort of crime??
I wish, but then again, I have the State of California and their lawyers behind my back if I have to...

Quote from: DrP on March 11, 2013, 02:16:34 PMSo here's my rant story:

Over the past few weeks, we have had residents drawing penises on posters and stuff that we put up. All us RAs had meetings with my residents about this and empower them to fix these issues.

They then broke markers and drew them all over the walls, which prompted me and another RA to remove the furniture from the room.

Now, here's the HUGE deal.

They got my car.... MY FREAKING CAR..

They keyed it. THey drew penises. they wrote faggot. they glued fake plastic trees to my mirrors.

So I talked to my boss, and called the police... they're processing this as a hate crime and destruction of property.

Whoever this little fucker was who did this will be expelled and prosecuted. Whoever did this did not know that they flushed their life down the toilet... all for what they thought is a harmless prank.

And yet, i'm still calm and collected to not show residents that this is getting to my head

/rant
Sucks to be you. :)

What do you mean outgrew? You no longer enjoy it? Or is it too small?
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Bubbles on March 11, 2013, 06:19:32 PM
No longer enjoy it? hahahahano

Its too small. I cant use the pedal without turning my legs sideways and not wearing shoes. If you cant picture that, its extremely uncomfortable. I usually have to play while sitting on my left leg and my right one doing the pedaling. Is there different size pianos for different sizes of people? I cant just put the piano on blocks.

Before I used a keyboard with 44 keys, but it became small for me as well, so I bought one with 76. I don't know if its just me (I'm guessing its not), but the less keys it has the more smaller it is... then again it could also be the brand =)

I'm not exactly sure how many keys my piano has. All I know is that the top and bottom notes are so high and low that they don't really sound like notes (theyre forever out of tune too :P)

Are there custom pianos that are taller? I never really thought about this being an issue, but I'm sure pedal users' heights range a lot. People who are taller than me: what do you do?

I cant adjust the bench height, because my shin bone is literally bigger than the space from the floor to the bottom of the piano. I tried a smaller bench but it didnt help

Your shin bone would have to be 3 feet long to not fit under a piano. Saria's violin teacher is taller than you and he seems to play a Steinway grand quite easily. Are you sitting too close to the keys? What about your posture?

So, despite the fact that I got this girl that I like (let's call her Livia) chocolates on Valentine's Day (a friend, let's call her Charlie, convinced me that I should've done something for her), apparently I'm still not a nice person, but instead a creep because "I'm around her too much". "Too much" is just hanging out with her after school for a minute, only because another friend's locker is right next to hers. And this OTHER friend of mine, perhaps his name is Marco, is apparently closer of a friend to her, despite the fact that Livia hates him and that Marco commented today about being able to see up her skirt (actually, let's refer to him as dumbass). Now I feel that I have no one to blame but myself.

I feel unwanted.

If I remember correctly Kirby's down b is turning into a rock/heavy object? Thats not really effective imo

I personally always use Pikachu but occasionally Meta Knight or Pokemon Trainer

Kirby's down-b is pretty much an instant knockout if you have 50+ damage.  Meta Knight and Pikachu?  Approve.  Pokemon Trainer is my LEAST favorite character in the game.

How would I convince a "typical stupid, ignorant, Wal-Mart-shopping American" to save more electricity because it's bad for the environment?

Ummmm say something like "Enough electricity use will hurt the environment. Trees are part of the environment. Trees give you air. Without air, you cannot breathe. If you cant breathe you cant stay concious long enough to watch even one episode of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, Extreme Couponing, or The Real Housewives of asdfghjkl; . Imo if the person is ignorant enough you could just dress fancy and use big words and theyll do anything for you.

Coal mining is bad for the environment, what can I say...not to mention all the stuff that's made from burning the coal. I think Americans still use mostly coal to generate electricity?

I read somewhere that people still die from coal mining accidents, etc. Look more into coal mining before getting into what happens when you burn a ton of coal. Somehow convincing Americans that humans don't have any impact on the environment and how everything isn't "made for people" is the real challenge here. I had some moron actually believe the EPA was purposely trying to slow the US economy and screw everyone over by not letting mining companies into the Alaskan wilderness.

Therefore, suggest they have a small solar powerplant built in their backyard. Also, buy those spirally light bulbs. And quit using the god damn hairdryer so much.

Do you have to memorise the lines exactly?  And what kind of lines are they?  Is it a conversation?  What I do sometimes is try to think of a series of ridiculous events occurring that relate to the conversation to give me keywords to remember phrases.

As an example, if I were to memorise a conversation that went as follows:
Person A: I ate a bird today.
Person B: Was it delicious?
Person A: No, it made me puke. :(

So to remember that, I would imagine a someone eating a live bird (instead of a cooked one) and that bird kicking Person A's insides until he pukes.  Don't be afraid to be ridiculous; the brain seems to like remembering nonsense than sense!

Hope this helps!

My family got there and after we entered the room and said hello to her, she started crying. When we asked her what was wrong, she just whispered "Today's my last day"

One of the saddest things I've ever heard of just happened to a woman who is something of a family friend. She worked for my dad when we lived in Michigan and we were always good friends with her. My dad's known her his whole life.

Last night, she went to Kroger and happened to run into her sister. It had been a while since they last saw each other, so they shopped together and talked and basically caught up. When they left at the same time, she was driving in front of her sister. Down the road, she could see a car careening toward them, with the police chasing them really fast. So she pulls over.

She watches in her rearview mirror as the car slams headfirst into her sister's, killing her. She feels responsible--that if she wasn't talking to her, she wouldn't have left at that time and wouldn't have died, etc.

This morning, she went to her OTHER sister's house to plan funeral arrangements. And she found her other sister dead in her bed.

I can't think of many things more depressing and cruel than that. These women aren't even that old.

It's testing this week. And while I passed all of my HSGQE's last year, I should be getting the next three days off.

Nope.

Each day, I have to go in at three separate points in the day because of something happening at the school. At 6:45 I have Jazz Band, because Jazz Fest is next week, I have to go in at 10:45 to serve lunch so I can get paid, and then come back again at 12:15-1:45 for an APUSH study session...

I am soooo not excited. I just want to sleeeeep. and attempt to do homework...and play my 3DS....

I was working on a group assignment that involved defining the characteristics of tectonic plates and their effect on the world oceans. My group kept bugging me to do my work...even though I had the best quality work, along with taking over the most difficult aspect of the project. I stayed up until 2am yesterday finishing it, only to find out in class that the teacher decided to push the due date back to Friday...yay.

I'm in an above average condition, so this is definitely not supposed to happen. I'm worried that something's wrong. I'll book an appointment with a doctor the first thing tomorrow.

Yah I wouldn't worry about it. Has she been sick for a long time? If so, you're probably just not sad because you've been subconsciously expecting it for so long (same happened with my grandma). Or are you geographically separated? That makes things much easier.

A little of both I think? She lives 4 hours away so we dont really see her except for holidays. In the last few months her cancer has come back and spread alot so theyve gotten to the point where theres nothing they can do anymore

But the last few weeks, every time my parents would take a breath in or there was a phone call, I'd freeze. Now that they've actually come out and said it though it doesnt seem as bad but it IS

I dont want to think of it as being "used to it" or that were not as close because were separated but I just...am

You might not feel sad now, but you may just be one of those people who don't get sad or depressed over these things. On the flipside you might get really sad once it actually happens and she's gone.

Okay, so apparently my friend didn't believe me when like two days ago I told him I was 100% not against homosexuality? He doesn't know I like guys or anything but he still thought I was joking about supporting gay rights, I guess. Because he's insulting homosexuals and going on a texting rant about them and it's really irritating me~

And I have to just not reply right now or I might lose my temper or something. I don't care if he has his own opinion, but the fact that he knows I feel strongly the other way and is still insulting my opinion is irksome. I'll just leave it alone for now.

Hanging out with uncool people is lame.

Therefore, hanging out with that uncool guy will make you lame.

Don't be lame.

I'm prolly the world's biggest skeptic of that club.

Mostly for guys, cuz when we like a certain gender WE FUCKIN COMMIT TO IT. Legit bisexuality is EXTREMELY rare in men due to SCIENCE. Bisexuality in women, on the other hand, is extremely common especially those in the 16-24 bracket, cuz that's when all da hormones are goin a CRAZY. Women at any age have more bisexual tendencies than men, but they still end up swinging one way and not the other.

Also, bisexuality was a myth created in the 90s to sell hair products. Tina Fey told me so.

Hey, all I'm saying is this. I know of a both gay and straight people over the age of 50. But never once have I encountered and bisexual person, man or woman, of later years. Bisexuality, more than anything, is the product of a fuck ton of hormones surging through a person who hasn't quite found their sexual identity. AKA 95% of all teenagers. It's just more prevalent in some than others.

He never said they aren't real people... not sure how you reached that conclusion. He said that usually bisexuality is a stage of "hmm not sure which I like more yet," and that they'll eventually set on one or the other.

As a gay guy in junior year of high school exclaimed to the class: "You're either with us or against us!" (meaning you're gay or straight; there is no in between)


Of course I personally don't have an effing clue about the matter so don't start yelling k thx.

Well, okay, maybe I jumped to conclusions on that matter, but bisexuality is a real thing and it doesn't mean someone is confused on what gender they like better.

Bisexuality is what it says on the tin. The person is attracted to both genders, sometimes with a preference towards males or females. But please please please never just go "lol bisexuals are just confused!" because it's really really offensive towards that group of people. It's a thing, it's not "hormone ridden teenagers", and accusations like that continue the ignorance and hate and stereotyping.

So... let's not offend anyone, okay?

Post by: Mashi on April 21, 2013, 01:25:21 PM
I'm going to have to disagree with the stance that sexuality is set in stone from genetics.  We've found a decent degree of correlation (and anyone who's taken a basic Statistics or Psychology course should have the words "Correlation does not signify causation." in his/her head by now) between parts of the brain and sexual orientation, but none of it is especially conclusive (we don't know whether sexual orientation affects brain structure or if it's the other way around).  Competing theories are that environmental and genetic influences both play a role or that orientation is determined by prenatal factors.

I prefer the Keynesian view of sexual orientation in that it can change over time (the argument against those who claim to have changed orientation is that they were just discovering things, but... I think that argument is pretty mute!  If orientation truly were innate, we wouldn't need to experiment or discover it.  That's like saying we need to discover how to breathe or hold our breath underwater or something; both are instinct and occur naturally).  The perspective's gained some dubious reputation due to failed efforts to 'fix' homosexuals into heterosexuals in the past (to make an analogy, I feel that non-heterosexuals don't become heterosexual even if it makes life easier for them for the same reason that we don't all become super geniuses that exercise all the time and are incredibly courteous to everyone despite our desires to.  We want to, but we don't necessarily apply ourselves enough or become distracted by other wants.  Not that staying non-heterosexual is bad, just wanting to make a comparison.  This is just my view, anyhow), but I still feel that it's creditable.


Also, SuperFireKirby, what's wrong? :(

I've thought about things and I really think that I'm not capable of having a girlfriend right now. But the thought about rejecting her makes me feel so bad. It's impossible to tell how she would react and lot of her friends are also my good friends and they would probably think I'm a complete ass asdfgghh fucking shit why can't I be a normal human being and be happy if there's someone nice and pretty who likes you BUT NO I have to be like this and not be happy but nervous as hell instead and already feeling bad although nothing has happened ffffff.

Because I don't feel like I could be a good boyfriend to anyone now. She's a really social type who wants to hang out with everyone A LOT. Then again I'm the kind of guy who needs a lot of time to be alone. I'm not sure would she understand if I continuously said that "I don't want to hang out right now". She'd probably begin to think that I don't like her and I'm avoiding her? I'm not really that unsocial by nature but I have issues which usually make me really uncomfortable in social situations (it doesn't matter if it's friends or total strangers). I'm always very tense and I only relax when I'm alone. I have told her about this so I wonder why she even likes me.

People are gullible: they listen to all the ecobabble (would this be the correct term?) and think that they just HAVE TO do something. They'd rather save trees than their fellow humans.

I mean, we DO have to preserve our environment... but that should come with common sense!!!

Er, the environment is pretty important too. It kind of, I dunno, sustains the planet life by keeping the air clean? I know human life is important as well, but we can't have human lives to save if the planet's a filthy, polluted mess because we'd die without proper clean air and water.

Peoples' actions everyday should help reduce the strain of the human population on the environment (e.g. don't litter, use forms of transportation other than cars); there are things that are out of their control, however (such as the development of cleaner, more efficient fuels, or overfishing in certain locations).

Yep. Humans are not capable of these things. Unless by some divine right bestowed by God allows them the capability to change the world for the better, all they can really do is recycle and use curly lightbulbs(two things which don't help the world pretty much AT ALL).

That was sarcasm, by the way.

I have an odd feeling you don't know what I was actually intended to say by that (then again, most people don't anyway).

The average person does not develop new ways of using energy (such as improved solar or wind energy). Your sarcasm would make sense (and be rather hilarious) if I were referring to such people who do develop technology of that category. ::)
Littering and fuel-efficient transportation are two things that can help the environment (the second one especially, such as reducing smog in big cities; that is, if everybody used a different method of transportation :P :P), at least in local areas.

I have to write an outline for my paper on Confucianism, and all my resources are so confusing. When they aren't using ridiculously big words one after another, they're spelling them wrong or using improper grammar >.> How am I supposed to write a good paper when the author of the book doesn't know how to make sentences?

Not to mention of the three books and two internet articles I've used, I still really have no idea what Confucianism is

Post by: Bubbles on April 28, 2013, 08:02:57 PM
The thesis statement: Confucianism was the basis of Chinese political and social order because it showed the importance of family, included morals in politics, and taught basic morals like truthfulness. (taken off wiki answers :P)

Really I just need to know what Confucianism even is, since everything I've read seems to have just danced around that subject. Everything talks about its morals and order, but nothing explains them. I cant tell if its actually the books or I'm just bad at researching

Confucianism is a philosophy (though, I've seen it referred to loosely as a religion.  I think it being a philosophy is more suitable though, since it focuses on real things than spiritual and unnatural ones).  It was a way of life meant to replace (or complement?  Not sure) Taoism, but focus more on humanitarian causes.  So it was a social and political philosophy meant to affect China for the better by helping individuals reach an ideal.  As time went on in China, Confucianism changed a bit to adapt to modern times (leading to Neoconfucianism) and it led to the implementation of ideas ahead of its time, such as civil service exams during the Sui Dynasty and its popularity during the Song Dynasty.

Post by: SuperFireKirby on April 28, 2013, 08:24:25 PM
^Basically, Confucianism is Daoism's polar opposite. Confucianism scrapped spirituality, instead putting major emphasis on worldly, human....things, among these being social order and education. Unlike Daoism, Confucianism was less about the individual and more about the group, society, country, ect. and how these social constructs could be improved through rigid discipline of the individual so they could best serve their society.

There is no such thing as an average person. Everyone has the potential to change the world. That's what I'm trying to get at. Most people see something travesty happen, regardless of what it is, and just say to themselves, "It's not something I can fix! I'm too average!" when in reality, everyone could aspire to do something magnificent if they would stop pretending to be innocent bystanders. That's the point I was trying to make.

I would love to go into my laboratory and develop some sort of new technology to harness the full potential of the sun's energy, but I don't have the resources (nor the laboratory :P) to do so. What I was trying to say is that everybody CAN do things to help the environment (even if it's effects are just local) in little ways everyday.

I don't care if my statement means nothing to you whatsoever, but I'll say it anyway.

I know what you're going through. Not only did I move to a totally different state between eighth and ninth grade, I also moved between my sophomore and junior year of high school, a couple miles away from the other house. It's tough, I'm not going to lie. But I can promise you things do get better, and although change is hard to accept, in the end you'll look at the move as a positive experience. I know it sucks right now, and it's going to suck for a while. It sucks having your parents spring this on you, it sucks having no say, and it sucks knowing so much is going to change. Luckily, all of these things get better with time, and like I said you'll be happy in the long run. Stick the situation out and try to look at things in a positive light.

I think it's generally easier to move between neighborhoods when you're younger than when you're older, for various reasons (however, it depends on the type of person), especially if you've lived in a specific house for much of your life.

So I hate life pretty hard right now.

I had to move out of my dorm today. Some of my 'good friends' didn't even say bye before they left.

I still haven't found a place in town because every time I go to look at a place they tell me 'lol we already rented it out to someone else'.

For example, yesterday my boyfriend thought he found a place, saw it and talked to the guy. He said he'd be back in 2 hours with a down payment. We call him 2 hours later and he says he fucking rented it out to someone else.

What the fuck am I doing wrong? Who the fuck did I hurt? What did I do to deserve this bullshit?

So now my boyfriend and I are living in a motel until we can find something. With the luck we're having now... Ugh.

So about 2 hours into my 2nd shift, our drains flooded and stunk up the whole back of the restaurant. Besides that, it wasn't too terrible though. In fact, I was feeling pretty damn good until about five minutes ago, when an extremely negative wave, due to a thought, hit me and now I feel really sick. And now I can't get this thought out of my head and it's really messing me up.

Some of my co-workers invited me to come with them to a club on the beach and get "fucked up".  I think I might take them up on the first part of that offer. I seriously need to get this negativity out of my system.

Also I miss school. Mostly the people. College is such a little bitch. Makes you get use to living with certain people for months and fall in love with the morbid little family you become and then rips it all away. ;~;

Wait, are you trying to rent out a house or an apartment or a room/part of a house? Because I thought I remembered you mentioning something about it before. Cuz you should be able to walk into literally any apartment complex ever and have at least one vacancy.

I dunno, but I really hope your luck improves gurl!

I slept terribly last night; I was hot, yet I was cold, my blood vessels were throbbing, culminating in a pulsating pain on the sides of my head (right in front of my ears), I felt dizzy whenever I got up, and my arms and legs were weak...

And to top it all off, I just vomited a few minutes ago (though, compared to the last time I was sick, it was a lot less acidic, and didn't burn my throat).

We've bad it decided for a while, but my family is going to put down our 11-year-old German Shepard, Duchess, this Friday.

It's alright. Yeah it'll be sad, yeah I'm gonna cry, but it's what's best for her. She's been so strong for the past year since her genetic muscle disorder kicked in, the rest of her is just falling apart from the inside out. She's chewing her fur off because she can't feel it, and the wounds aren't healing at all...And she can barely use her hind legs. She's scared to walk across cords and certain places in the house because she knows she's gonna trip and fall down...She's a good dog, and we all love her, but now is the time. We almost did it over christmas break, but I convinced my mom not to do it until school was out...I couldn't handle that. I just hope I don't have so bad of a mood swing I go crazy...I've known her virtually all of my life, and the most out of my two siblings, who have both gone off to college. I'm gonna miss that furry, noisy old thing... :'(

And if I'm ever blatantly or unsually rude, mean, or acting strangely in any way after Friday, this is most likely why. Please excuse my irrational behavior, if there is such...any comfort you guys may provide is welcome, as well.

It is a sad day for the Nore Family. Our beloved German-Shepherd, Duchess, passed away at approximately 4:35 pm this afternoon, at 11 years and 3 weeks.

I've known Duchess since that warm summer evening since we picked her up along Chena Hot Springs Road in 2002, and ever since she has been an incredible addition to this family. I still remember that first night as we fell asleep together on the way home, and her spending her first few nights on some newspaper in the garage. Through the years Duchess has grown much larger from her tiny puppy body, and while none of us were able to pick her up again, we still knew she was that little puppy in our hearts. For the past few months, she had begun suffering due to a genetic leg disorder that caused her to lose control of not only her legs, but her bowels as well (it was messy). As the disorder increased severity, she began to chew on her own fur, just to see if she could still feel it. These wounds cut so deep that they showed to be unhealable, leaving nasty scars that had to be cleaned every so often. Duchess was a great dog and an incredible friend, who always got in your face when you began to cry...even if she didn't understand why.

I'm gonna miss that noisy furball, as our family turns the page to a new adventure.

Holy crap my university guys
I gave them my dorm room keys' back in April, and now I received a bill saying they changed the locks to my old room because they never received my keys. They're charging me fucking $75 for 3 keys. This is ridiculous. Bf was with me when I gave them back my keys too. This is ridiculous. Why should I have to pay for they're mistake? Dumbass administration... fuck I'm pissed. This is ridiculous.

The joke is that all three are the same game, just with different names(ダーククロニクル in Japan, Dark Chronicle in Europe, but because of copyright issues they had to call it Dark Cloud 2 in America)

No, actually, one of the only reasons I would buy a PlayStation is for Dark Cloud 2.

But you're in luck, SFK, the upcoming Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies (to be released in the US in 2014) is allegedly the final Professor Layton game. Maybe then they'll change to DC3.

Accidents + hidden defects are always a possibility.  And with Nintendo's shitty digital distribution implementation it's especially risky.  But in most cases yea you're probably ok.. Though there is also the whole null resale value deal.

I may be mistaken, but I was under the impression that they lock your purchases to your device, and it can only be transferred through software on the device.  So if it was broken, you would have to hope Nintendo service could do it for you for a non-absurd fee...

I realized it's my fault because I never text or call them or anything. So I texted them all. NONE WERE TEXTING ME BACK AND IT WAS MAKING ME SICK. I felt like I had fucked things up for good. Started crying because my boyfriends my only friend. Asking through tears why I'm such a failure.

Yeah I had a bad bipolar episode.

ANYWAY.

It was just all making me incredibly sick in my stomach. The friend I was texting most did get back to me and we're gonna try to hang out this weekend. Hopefully I can remedy the situation and have irl friends.

About my sister being an idiot:

She's thrown out about a dozen trash bags full of stuff from here. She insists she didn't throw out anything valuable but I don't believe anything she says. There's a set of house keys missing and I've had to recover quite a few of my things from the bags she said that didn't have my things in it. Maybe I'm overreacting -.-

Also her screaming angry texts to me from earlier today. I went out early to drop off Saria at school, then to record a video of a string quartet for some money. Obviously I had to silence my phone while filming and I only checked it when they took a break.

Ad hominem:

Earlier that day, she said she was taking off work to meet the landlord who was visiting. She didn't end up doing it since she decided to go to the laundromat instead. Fat sis ended up meeting up with him and old sis started screaming at her to for forgetting to mention a few things to him (that she said she would do).

Basically it was just an accumulation of little things over, like, a 4 hour period.

So I think I have majorly fucked everything up.

So I was watching Doctor Who on my computer and grinding EVs on Pokemon on my 3DS on 1:45 AM. As you can assume, I should be asleep. My mother decided to do a random check-up and busted me and took the devices. Now I'm looking at a major yelling from parent next morning and I'm super afraid of my father when he's angry. I can say good-bye to the computer and 3DS for at least a month.

Good thing I have kept my 3DS XL purchase as a secret.

Then why not Layton? His franchise is still going with a new release next year, not to mention the app that came out a few weeks ago, and putting him in the game would draw attention to the series. I wouldn't mind them replacing Ganondorf with Ghirahim (did they confirm hes returning yet?), I guess that would make up for no Layton
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: SlowPokemon on July 13, 2013, 08:31:22 PM
I would think not Layton because while it's released as a first-party game, it's technically developed by Level-5.

Then again, Pokemon is developed by Game Freak!

I actually really doubt Layton will be a character, but I have hopes there will at least be a stage or some music!

Please keep in mind the game was only announced a month ago, with the release date being sometime next year (late summer at best, I'm assuming). I expect a tight roster. I'm not sure how they'd even implement Layton, but I'm not too familiar with his games. Also, this is not the place to be talking about Smash Bros.

Implementing characters from puzzle games into fighting games must be really difficult. You have to make up moves and shizz. It'd be like introducing a Tetris block.

But they could do Layton as an assist trophy. He'd be like, "HERE'S MAH PUZZLE. SOLVE IT BITCHAS!"

^Apparently someone has completely forgotten about one Mr. Captain Falcon, and how they implemented a guy into a fighting game who spends the entire game either in a racing car/ship/thing or on a character selection menu, all while not really being the main character at all.

It helps that he's super muscular though. Layton is a true gentleman, and a true gentleman doesn't bash people's faces.

Chrome has Adblock. Really, I just prefer Chrome because it's simpler. There's a back and forward button, refresh, home, and menu. Tabs can be easily manipulated, and you can search by using the address bar. Also, there's a Pin Tab feature that lets you keep tabs open even after closing and reopening it.

My neighbors are subtle assholes.

For a week or so they've been parking their pickup in the front of the house so that it takes up both their space AND the space where I usually park. 'Oh we have to leave room for the rv'. Yes, the neighbors had one there, but they left plenty of fucking room for them. They did not need 50 feet of space.

My neighbors act all super sweet and are like 'omg we just wanna help' then do subtle asshole things like that. When we first moved in and didn't have trash set up yet we put one trash bag in their trash can ONE TIME because they had nothing in it and it was almost trash day. Those anal fuckers took our trash bag out of their trash can and sat it by our door. Who the fuck does that. God I hate these assholes.

My car stereo got brokeded. :(

Also I uhh.. fucked up pretty badly at work today. A customer had like 300 something dollars of shiz. 16 of it being food. So she pays that with food stamps. K. Next she says she wants to do 300 'cash aid'. Now, I've never heard of this. Plus she had a southern accent. So I thought she said 'cash-a' which I thought was her way of saying cash. So I type in 300 cash and then she's like 'no I wanted it on my /cash aid/'. Well, fuck. Call CSM (customer service manager) and he can't just cancel the transaction and redo it because of the food stamps. You can't undo that. So.. fuck. So the lady has to go all the way to the atm, get 300 cash, and bring it back.

Now not only did I feel bad for wasting her time. But even if she did say cash I should've had it in my hand and counted it before I typed it in. :/

I felt.. pretty shitty for the rest of the day.

I don't blame you, it sounded really confusing ._. I think the food stamp card can be used as a debit card and hold cash too but that would be a separate transaction. She should have just taken out the money in that case to save you trouble -.-

Yeah I don't think they need that much blood either, but I still get itchy if they land on me or just try to bite -.- I don't know if they would just fly away without finishing. Wikipedia only said I can cause their stomachs to explode if I stretch my skin out while they're feeding, that's all xD

So I kept asking her about it. Two weeks ago she said "Geez why didn't you ask me sooner" when I've been asking her for weeks already... turns out she's making me do overtime this weekend because she doesn't feel like working this weekend.

Now for my rant(lol,it's kind if the other side if your tale): last night three people didn't show up for work. Upon researching why, I realized that one of them was out of town and the other 2 DIDN'T EVEN FUCKING WORK HERE ANYMORE. To make things worse, we couldn't get replacements for them because it was ready late in the day. Since it was my job to close the front end, guess who had to do all of their jobs on top of his own? And give everyone else their break.
9 hours. 4 jobs. 0 breaks.

So now everyone thinks they can just take advantage of my kindness and I'm fucking done with it. So a basically just hung up on my boss.

We went for a boat ride today, my family and cousins. While fishing my aunt (the same one from before) was taking pictures of everyone. I was half hiding from her pictures since it was windy and I just plain dont like pictures. She comes over to me and says "don't worry, your hair is too messy so I won't take a picture". Was that supposed to be fucking comforting? I can't wait until everyone leaves

It may not be official, but the translator's done a remarkable job with their work. One of the reasons I recommend watching it is just because I enjoyed the game that much (it's my favourite alongside Trials and Tribulations), and I feel that it'd be such a shame for any Ace Attorney fan to miss out on AAI2.

As for Investigations 1... Eh, I liked it more than Apollo Justice, at least. The main problems I had were that the plot wasn't as dramatic as previous games, and some of the returning characters suffered from some Flanderization in my opinion. It still has some humour and good music, at least.

Anyways, I still say that AAI2's Youtube translation is worth a try, although the game spoils the main plot of the previous game, and you might be a bit lost at first to a few of the new characters if you skip AAI.

Heyy it's the same for me, except I'm really tiny.  You get a lot of attention being a foot shorter than everybody else too because they think something about you is freaky. I got called midget in middle school. Stupid people don't know what a midget looks like. I just stopped aging for 5 years. D: Even if I try to ignore them, some people even bring it up in conversations and say things like "Do you even notice you're tiny?" and when I got upset with people teasing my height one of my friends said, "Well, it's true. There's no reason for you to get mad." Hope things get better for me in high school. :/ Nobody I know is going to my high school so I hope to make better friends as well. Oops I accidentally a rant.

All my mom's friends mention my height after more than a couple months of not seeing me. I suppose it's a replacement for a comment on your age for something you can see easily.

If somebody hasn't seen you in a while, I think they'll instinctively look for some change to comment on. I bet if you got contacts between those meetings instead of glasses they would notice that and forget about your height.

Pffft. We battle cockroaches that invade from our neighbor's yard all night (fruit trees uruuuuu)...

And you know what's worse than a cockroach? Big ugly bugs that we call date beetles (I don't know what they're actually called, though). They're huge.

So true. I don't usually listen to the radio at all but when I was in military service I was forced to listen to it. There were three songs I heard several times every day: Train - Soul Sister, Muse - Neutron Star Collision and Adam Lambert - What Do You Want From Me.

I almost died.

Don't people usually get a bit tired if they don't eat enough? XD Anyway, getting your blood sugar or insulin levels checked is probably a good way to go, and also eating better.

In other news I'm sick of fat sis and her stupid ghetto friends and how they all need to be so ghetto all the time. Like the other day when she buys a super tight dress that literally shows everything and she still thinks it's okay to wear it.

The split on the dress is too high and you can actually see that she's wearing a thong under it -.-

Because it's clearly designed for children. It's more sturdy, and there's no 3D that can hurt kids' eyes. So it makes sense that they do this actually. Also in their ads little kids were using it so... yeah. Why does it even bother you.

It's sturdier without the hinges(I broke my DS lite hinges and I wasn't even that rough with it) and it's considerably smaller. So it's not just a 3DS without 3D, it does have some significant changes.

I've been playing it before I left for Europe... been rocking Poland!!

Also, I go to France and want to have coffee at Cafés. Yet a Cappuccino at one costs 6€. At the Starbucks, I can get a bigger size for 4€ and free WiFi... Starbucks is truly the McDonalds of coffee. AND it is really good.

Most of my money has been spent on Crêpes, Macarons and various other pastries. Last night, I had cream puffs held together by whipped cream (in sort of a tower) with raspberries in the middle and covered in a hard sugar glaze.

But my problem is... COFFEE IS SO EXPENSINVE... my God. I knew Europe was expensive, but not THIS expensive. Hell, even wine at cafés were cheaper than an NORMAL cup of coffee.

They're opening a shop at the Alexander's Street in Helsinki this fall, and it's fantastic. The location is right in the heart of the city, meaning I'll stop by there quite often.
also if its overpriced there think about how expensive itll be here

It's cheaper in the US. And yes, compared to making your own coffee, it is ridiculously expensive (which is what I will plan on doing when the PSL and Eggnog Latte seasons end)

(https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zerohedge.com%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fimages%2Fuser3303%2Fimageroot%2F2013%2F02%2F20130227_WSJ.jpg&hash=041ecfbef47c5be6012772f9d1dc7cedc01b0893)
Note:
Helsinki - #5
Paris - #9
Atlanta - #24
SFO - #27 (coffee is cheap out here since CA has a lower cost of living compared to NYC and ATL)
Also, China more expensive.

I'm actually surprised that London is so cheap.

I walked right by that. I really wanted a mug from the Starbucks at the airport last night, but my flight got in at 9:45 and it closed at 10... so I jumped on the bus today just to get it... SO worth it.
Also, fixed Aleksanterinkatu

And I love coffee as much as tea... I found this tea shop in Paris called "Palais des Thés" -- SO MANY GREAT TEAS!

And the reason you can afford it is because you're used to the cost of living at this level, because it is ridiculously cheap in the US (and if I move to Europe, my firm will make cost of living adjustments)

But funnily enough, coffee at the other coffee shops (namely Coffee Shop in Sokos) are cheaper than Paris.

So guys I think something's wrong with me. I've been super stressed for no reason, I go to bed with a headache every night, and I can't concentrate in any of my classes. It's gotten to the point where I'm skipping school because I'm not getting anything out of it. Which is what I'm doing right now. I'm currently on a bus out of North Pole. I don't know where I'm going, or what I'm doing, so I need someone to talk me out of this.

Apparently I hit the wall so hard it made everyone stop talking and look at me to see what happened. I've barely been able to move my left arm since.

Do you have those super old students in your school too? Like the 50-something ones that sometimes get into embarrassing arguments with the professor?

The older students are fun, I've had a few in my math class.

Then there was this one time I was taking the spoken English test, which involved all participants giving some kind of presentation. The first person to give the presentation was this older guy, who apparently had worked for Nokia for ten years or so. Funnily enough, one part of his job was making presentations.

So the guy gives this professional presentation and I think to myself that if this is the standard for presentations here, I should just give up and leave. Thankfully the next student messed up his presentation and made me feel better (but still feeling a bit sorry for that guy).

Yeah I do. They always sit in the back of the class, then complain because the teacher isn't loud enough, they can't see the teacher's presentation well, etcetc. And yeah, they always argue with the teacher... it's like they want us to smack them in the face with a shovel.

My oldest second cousin got married on the eighth and were pretty rude to us about it. First of all, she wouldn't let my family bring +1s and then didn't even reserve enough seats for my whole family, saying that the groom's family needed all the seats left. Then my (youngest) second cousin accused fat sis of planning to wear white to her sister's wedding to upstage her because of a rumor. I found out later that old sis was actually responsible for the -1 because she just assumed one person wouldn't come, etc, and she had told my cousin about the dress.

So Kefka and I decided not to go to avoid their excessive snobbery and told fat sis the reason we weren't going (to people who asked). It turned out everyone asked where I was (not sure if fat sis told them why) and no one paid attention to the no guests rule (and there were still extra seats), and ate and drank like crazy.

Plus my family had to give them $400 to attend. 

So did we dodge a bullet or not? ._.

So for AP environmental science, we had to get in group and do some research on mega corporations to find out how dirty they actually are. I got in a group with my friends even though they're complete idiots... the write-up part of the assignment is due Friday, and we've barely started.

Originally my friend Collin insisted that we research Frito-Lay because "they own everything." But after researching today I found out they're owned by PepsiCo... which some other group is doing.

Now we're doing Comcast for some reason... and we can't really find much dirt about them. Now I dunno what to do.

Several of the assignments for my Visual Arts class are weird.

For example, for one assignment, they want you to create a sculpture that demonstrates several principles of art, made out of construction paper. Out of CONSTRUCTION PAPER. Not clay, not out of popsicle sticks (even cardboard would be more reasonable)... paper... a rather large (considering the base of the model is a 10 x 10 in. piece of paper) sculpture of paper: not only would that be flimsy, but it would be absolutely messy (since they want you to GLUE it together)! And then they want you to paint it!! What, I wonder, can seriously be learned from this!? That paper is difficult to work with when making a three-dimensional sculpture of considerable size (if it's worth noting, though, I haven't tried, nor cared to have tried, gluing multiple sheets of paper together, since the shape I planned would still have a hollow center)!?
What's next? Carve and paint a miniature figure for a board game or RPG!? You know, that might actually be a better assignment...

I was going to post this in the Post Your Thought of the Moment Thread, but I feel like this developed from a mild complaint about pointless art assignments into a rant about these assignments, and what little value they hold in a Visual Arts course, when they could be replaced by much more meaningful and relevant assignments (plus, I'm tired and angry >:().

I love how I had to pay $500 to be able to park my car at my university, and that when I actually need to park my car there there is absolutely no fucking parking space available because their parkings are too fucking small. They made me pay $15 so I could park my car in a different parking. I won't even be in school for 3 hours. I fucking hate my university =____=

:< I'm sorry, bro.

For me, I'm growing more and more tired of my parents ways expecting so much out of me- other things aside, in particular I'm talking about the swim meet last night. I didn't swim my best, in fact it was a second slower than last week, a total of 11 seconds slower than my fastest, but itll be a whole before I'm up to that level again. Anyways, my parents think that I'm gonna do great with every single race that I do- my best event is the 500 freestyle. It's a stretch. A lot of the time I enjoy doing it, but...not this time. I had a long day, and I just didn't feel it. And of course I let down my parents, which I hate, because then they're in this really disappointed mood and are condescending of me. My dad especially. My mom told me later that he apparently had nothing nice to say about me. Well thanks.


In other news, when I was done swimming, I was showering in the locker room, when SHADOWKIRBY comes in and begins singing to me. While I'm naked. There was a good 2 minutes he stood there staring directly at me while I showered...completely naked. Singing. Not cool, man. Later that night he suggested that the girl I made out with tHis summer was really his 14th regeneration. Also not cool.

But in all seriousness, you can't PR at every meet! (idk if that term applies in swimming too...) just because you were a little slower doesn't mean you're getting worse. And I don't think your parents are disappointed at you, but for you. If you tried your best that day for the condition you were in then who can really complain?

And I know what you mean, I hate letting down my parents, as cheesy as that sounds. My mom knows she can get me to do anything as long as she somehow makes me feel guilty for it.

yeah, I know what PR means :P

But that's the thing, I didn't do my best, I knew it wasn't going to be my best last week...it's a weird sensation, but I haven't had a good week at all. But like I said, I'd had a long day, but I felt like I did way worse than I had, so I know I can do so much better. I think in a way, the fact that I felt so shitty and the difference between times is more of a motivator, because I went about the same time. Meh, if that makes sense, you know what I mean. And sometimes it really bugs me when my parents are disappointed for me...I don't need their pity! Especially my dad. He's a butt.

God. I am so fucking pissed. For multiple reasons, but here's what really grinds my gears. My boyfriend's birthday is next month, and for a few months I've been planning to buy him Kinect for Xbox because he really wants it. So Layaway started up at Wal-Mart and I put one on layaway so that I can make payments and get it by his birthday. While doing this, this annoying guy that works here comes up and starts talking, sees the kinect and is like 'ohhh you getting him a present?' So next thing I know, Dan tells me he knows I put something on layaway for him because that fucker told him. He didn't tell him what it is, but he wasn't suppose to know I was getting him anything. Dan knows me, he knows I'm going to get the thing he's been wanting for months. So he's probably already guessed. And now my fucking surprise is ruined.

Kman96, sorry to hear (or read, rather!) your bad day!  But it's the type of thing that happens from time to time.  It was just unlucky circumstances.  I think things will brighten up in time though.  So stay positive!
Also, shadowkirby, you might not want to do awkward things like that without your friend's clear extent in the future even though I give your singing an F (for frivolous!!!) and it sounds super cool.

Sorry that happened to you, ETFROXX.  I know how it feels for something you've planned to end up unsuccessful for such minor things occurring.  If it's of any solace though, I'm sure he's going to love the present regardless and he'll feel ecstatic for all you've done to buy it for him.  You could tell him that you're not saving for something too expensive because you've not received that much pay or something if you want to try to give him doubts about the gift, but otherwise, I think bringing him happiness is your primary goal and not surprising him, so you've done a great job loving him nevertheless!

Handwriting is just one for those things that they make a big deal about. I remember learning to write when I was 4? I also remember the teachers at the pre-K checking to make sure your hands were clean before you went into the classroom.

I plugged in my headphones to practice, and after I unplugged them... the speakers refuse to work. I have tried literally EVERYTHING and cannot get sound to come out of the speakers, only the headphones.

I cannot sleep when he snores. It is almost unbearable. In such a small room, there is nowhere to escape to and I just sit there awake counting the hours away.
When I wake him up and tell him to sleep on his side and/or clear his throat, I'M suddenly the bad guy.

Really? How is that okay? You think that just because you naturally snore that you don't have to be mindful of your roommate? What kind of argument is that? I feel like we're freaking married or something it's retarded.

Well, there's not often a lot you can do. Clearing your throat doesn't do anything and if you're like me, you can try to sleep on your side, but you end up flopping all over the place anyway.

I'm not saying that's not annoying, but he can't really help it. They do make these nose strip things that are supposed to hold your nose open and help you breathe through your nose instead of your mouth. Maybe suggest those to him?

I'd recommend getting serious help if the snoring is that bad, but of course that can be very expensive...

If he doesn't want me to get mad at him for snoring, then he can't get mad at me for wanting to fix it. He refuses to use any kind of external tool that may affect with his own sleep (i.e. nose strips, tennis ball, etc.), so really it all comes down to lifestyle. He has a horrible sleep schedule (in bed by 3am and awake by 8am... naps throughout the day) and he's medically-recognized to be obese. But is he willing to take steps to tackle any of those either? No sir-- that's just too much work.

Nah she was glaring right at me and loudly making personal attacks because I apparently "walked into the train car too slowly picking out a seat." >_> I've only seen teenage punks do that kind of nonsense but she's like 50! Or late 40s.

No one else in the train even gave her any sort of attention so I wasn't going to either. Probably just a troll. For some reason I think she thought it was okay to do that because she didn't think I spoke English. I think next time around I'd just take a picture of her and post it on the internet.

So my week had been pretty shitty so far. It just had to get better (not)
I had some translation to do, and it was due at 8 am Wednesday morning. I'd worked the day before, and I was pretty tired because I had work + some kind of training for my internship, so I decided to wake up early on Wednesday and finish my translation then. I woke up at 6, had plenty of time to finish it and... my laptop crashed. At 7:30. And I lost my homework. So I redid my translation in 25 minutes. And my laptop crashed again. Because I handed my homework after 8 am I'm going to lose something like 20%. Which means I'm pretty much going to fail considering my maximum grade is 80%, and my teacher is an ass.
I thought this couldn't get any worse.
I was fucking wrong.
I had a paper that was due on Thursday at max 23:59 pm. I have to send it to my teacher via this really shitty website. It's 23:50, I'm done, I go on the website... and the website doesn't work. It freezes. I can't do anything, reloading the page doesn't work... and guess what. It's fucking midnight. And the website magically works again! But I can't deposit my paper on there. Time's up. Meaning I automatically get 0. Wonderful.
I fucking hate life right now.

Probably all the students tried to return their assignment at the same time, making the site unable to handle it. After midnight everyone just gave up so it works again.

Kind of how our registration system crashes the moment the registrations for freshman classes open. Or the site containing all the course material crashes when it's time for exams.

It has taken four different doctors specializing in three different departments to figure this out.

This has happened to some of my relatives too, one even got hospitalized for a month before they actually found that out. On the other hand when I had some weird symptoms couple of years ago the thyroid function tests were the first things to do.

Ok, I told SFK this story. But here goes.

The other day I was at Wendy's with my 'friends'. You'll understand why I put that in quotes later.

We took 2 cars as we had a lot of people, one car being mine and the other being my friend Kaylee's.

So, when we get there my friend Kaylee decides to take her car to the car wash cause she loves her car and stuff. So she gets back and she tells us about washing it and stuff. And my 'friends' are like "dude there's an automatic one near by want me to show you?" and she's like "yeah!"

So, guess what.

All of them pile into her fucking car. Including my dumbass roommate who I'm already pissed at in general. So I'm stuck in my car. By myself. Driving back to campus alone while they all have a grand fucking time going through the car wash. So then I'm at campus waiting and they get back like 20 fucking minutes later acting like nothing happened.

I haven't talked to my roommate unless necessary since. And made no effort to talk to them. And guess what, none of them have checked to see if I'm ok. They knew I was pissed. My roommate asked Dan if I've been 'pissy'. Which ticks me off even more.

UGH.

Unfortunately, contrary to common belief, college drama happens all too often; it's not over after high school, as many people like to say. It may get less ridiculous, but it's still there. I mean, shit, I'm just a freshman, but just off the top of my head, I've had to house people in my room because you could smell the pot in theirs from the hallway, a girl tried to pee on my roommate's bed (I'm...I'm just not gonna try to explain that one), and...yeah. But the thing is, we have too much shit to do at college to let trivial things dominate our mindsets. These are supposed to be the best years of our lives. Shit happens, and people are dicks, but think of it this way. That may have been a frustrating 20 minutes, but it doesn't have to frustrate you further. If they're good friends otherwise, don't alienate them, and maybe cut them some slack; not everybody thinks through the effects of their actions as much as they should. If they're not, and this becomes a recurring sort of thing, then there still doesn't have to be animosity; you don't have to hang out with your roommate, but you do have to live with her for the rest of the year. If it really does become a problem, try branching out more and meeting new people; getting to know more of the people in your classes, and such. It isn't good to rely on one group of friends, anyways. There are so many people to meet in college, and it's hard to know if you've met the right people yet.

I hope this helps, and I hope it doesn't seem strange that even though I have a year less of experience in college than you do (I'm assuming you're a sophomore) I'm trying to give you advice. Sometimes I just think another perspective is helpful.
In any case, I hope you feel better :) college is stressful enough as it is, haha

A few things:
A) My roommates a boy, he lives with my boyfriend and I in our house
2) I am indeed a sophomore
C) I understand your point, but to me this just verified my feeling that they would not be there for me emotionally if anything bad happened. We laugh and have fun but when push comes to shove, I know I don't matter. They have 'Dr. Phil' talks all the time, I'm never involved in those.
4) Thank you for your advice, I'm still trying to figure out my next move with this.

Kind of an odd discussion for me to join in, considering I'm a only a freshman in high school, but that last sentence really struck me. Sometimes the way people actually feel will surprise you - they could just think that you don't like them. If they really don't care about you though, then get new friends. No point in wasting your time trying to fit it with people who aren't willing.

True dat. Although, them thinking you don't like them isn't the only possible reason. A lot of times it's really hard for people to empathize with others over this sort of thing, because everybody has their own tolerances/lack thereof for certain social situations. They probably don't think/realize it was that big of a deal. Because, from a strictly objective viewpoint, that's just 20 minutes of your time you spent by yourself. However, put into context, it does imply a lack of consideration, and I can see how that would be frustrating. I'd try to get a read on their actual feelings; maybe speak up the next time something like this is starting to happen and say (preferably not too angrily :P again, don't want to alienate them) how you'd like to join in. If they let you, and there's nothing weird about it, I'd venture to say that the original problem was just a misunderstanding. If it does turn into a problem again, like I said, there are so many people to meet in college; by no means do the ones you've already met have to be the last.

And, if it's any consolation, people on here care about you :P

When I preordered my WiiU Zelda bundle, the clerk at EBGames told me they were gonna call me to tell me it was out, and I can go pick it up. They never called me, and I was pretty busy so I didn't have any time to really think about it. They don't have any bundle left. Sigh.

I called a different gamestop at least two hours ago and they said they would call me back after they called some other people. They haven't yet.

@K-night yeah I used my card. I guess if they really don't call back I could just go somewhere else (if the card doesn't say the place I ordered it at)

I'm playing 999. I told a couple of friends I'm playing 999. They decided it was a good idea to tell me the whole background of every character present in the game. I haven't gotten my first ending yet, but I already know what the whole game is about. Thanks friends.

So I had a procedure yesterday to get rid of the pneumothorax (on the left side this time), remove all the blebs on my left lung, and help to ensure it won't happen again (they'll do the right side in a few months; not looking forward to it, but it's necessary).
I'm in the hospital now, on a slow little netbook...

My brain just melted in rage.

Are you sure you literally know everything? I could clarify if it's still worth playing the game or not depending on how much info you know.

If not, there's always the sequel I suppose...

She talked to me about it this morning. They told her everything. She's still going to play it but that was really a dick move. You don't spoil 999 for someone.

Yep. Those 2 told me about the game too, saying it was great blablabla. So I thought I'd tell them hey guys, I finally started playing 999! They then took the opportunity to mention almost every single plot twist even though I told them I was close to getting my first ending. And no, I was not in a position where I could walk away at that time. So basically, I was fucked. And they spoiled everything.

...

Ask someone who has one for more details xD

The other thing you can do is to check the local game shop (maybe even ebay?) to see if anyone tried to sell it. A while ago I left my TI-89 in a classroom during a test. I looked everywhere for it right after class, but still couldn't find it. A few weeks later, some guy in my lab (who didn't show up to class for two weeks at least) that didn't know my name overheard me talking about a missing TI-89 so he returned it. I told some friends to keep an eye for anyone who used that calculator during a test too.

This. I registered to youtube when it still didn't have a lot of videos and over the years multiple people have been asking me to give up my nick "GaryOak" because it's the motherfucking Gary Oak. Now youtube itself wants me to to give up that name. But guess what youtube, I'd rather change my real name to Gary Oak than change GaryOak to my real name.

You want to get practically any highschool girl? Treat them like you'd treat any of your guy friends, but jokingly insult them in almost every verbal exchange you have with them. Also known as the "douchebag" method, it works uncannily well.

But then you find a girl you REALLY like and all you want to do is tell them how wonderful and just keep looking at them forever and hang on every word they say because your feels are so strong for them, and then you end up getting flat out rejected because yo made yourself too easy and that doesn't work at all because girls like a challenge.

May or may not be the story of my life.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: FierceDeity on November 01, 2013, 11:28:12 PM
The fedora is strong in this thread.

...Sorry, I just violated the "don't be pricks" rule, didn't I?

The fact is, girls are a lot more complicated and variable than would allow the "douchebag method" to constantly work. Also, if you use the douchebag method, I don't really have to say what that makes you, now do I?

The reason it seems like the douchebag method works is because those people exhibit a sense of humor, however douchey it may be. Not to mention, most douchebags are going to be that arrogant because they're confident in themselves, and however cliche it may sound, women love confidence.

Now, I'm going to give some advice that may or may not apply to you, masterprox.
One stereotype that can be applied to a lot of people, not just girls, is that people are superficial, especially in high school. Even you probably only become interested in girls who you think are pretty. While we'd all like to think that personality is everything, the fact that people are superficial remains. Again, I have no idea whether this applies to you or not, but you seem to be at a similar point in your life to when I made this realization. I was not the most stylish freshman in high school. My standard outfit consisted of athletic shoes, basketball shorts, and nerdy T-shirts. It was only when I started wearing nice jeans, nice shirts, and regular goddamn shoes in sophomore year (oh and started doing stuff with my hair, you have no idea how much that helped) that I started having meaningful relationships, because I feel fairly confident in saying that no matter how nice and well-meaning a person can be, some superficiality remains. And, when you know you look good, you'll be more confident, which, again, works wonders. Anyways, that was a lengthy and quite possibly unnecessary (cannot stress how little knowledge I have of whether this applies to you) way of saying "dress well".

Not to mention, a grand majority of relationships start without all of the cards on the table, so to speak. Unfortunately for us (I'm going to make another assumption based on the fact that you're on this site and therefore have a love for games), playing video games ascribes a certain stereotype. Again, I do not know you personally, so I have no idea how open you are about your (potentially) nerdy side, but unless you know they share your love of something, it's not always the best idea to be too open about it. Once you're into a relationship and getting comfortable, you can gradually "reveal" things about yourself, for lack of a better term. I know that we like to think that secrecy is detrimental to a good relationship, but the fact is, people are less able to focus on personality when there are attributes that already generate a stereotype in their heads, and are much more willing to accept these attributes once they've already determined that they like a personality. For example, my last girlfriend was far from a nerd (and didn't necessarily regard "nerds" too highly), but about a month into the relationship I managed to convince her to play through Kingdom Hearts II with me, and she had an awesome time. So, yeah, sometimes it's better to wait to let the nerdiness out.

I understand that you may not like this advice (or again, it may not even apply to you, I have absolutely no idea), but I like to think it's a more in depth analysis of why girls tend to go for douchebags, rather than merely the fact that they act like douchebags. While I acknowledge that the "friend zone" can, indeed, be a thing, it's not just that "girls don't like nice guys", because that's just not true. There are so many more aspects of how attraction works that I may not have even considered, but so far this "method" has worked for me, without me having to be an asshole.

...Maybe I should have posted this in the unpopular opinions thread, idk.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Mashi on November 02, 2013, 12:32:14 AM
Where did this stereotype that girls feel romance for jerks originate?  When did life become a Emily and Charlotte Bronte sisters novel???

I think some of you are hanging out with the wrong girls.  Or possibly misinterpreting the behaviours of certain people.

For the most part though, I agree with FierceDeity's post; it's good to be confident and it's not necessarily bad to be a little superficial, so long as your uniqueness remains intact.

I don't really see the point of this conversation. If you need to act a certain way other that yourself to get a girl, then that's not the girl for you. I can personally say that Ive felt attracted to douchebags, nerds, wimps, any type at some point, so there's not really a clear cut category.

To be clear, the fedora that I recently purchased for my Blues Brothers outfit is NOT, I repeat NOT any of the the douchebag type. I bought it at a classy tuxedo shop for $40. I had to make sure that I did NOT buy a drag fedora, because I'm not that kind o guy. And I'm perfectly content with my purchase.

A little derailing, but I jus had to defend my own purchase of a fedora.

^There were far more levels to it than you probably think, Sunny.

No, I know a thing or two about guys being creepy. I have friends that do it to girls they're trying to date, and it makes me want to slam my head into a wall with how uncomfortable it makes the girl. No, some people will like you, some people won't. It's as simple as that. It takes time, effort, the willingness to take a shot, and a shit ton of luck to find someone just right for you. That's the formula, guys and gals.

And then sometimes you find someone the whom you think is right person, and they make you think that they feel the same way and lead you on both in conversation and physicality for months to the point where most of your friends and random strangers think you're a couple. And then when you finally muster up the courage ask them on an "official" date and admit your true feelings for them, they tear your fucking heart out when it turns out that it was all a farce.[/Rant complete]

To my knowledge, this one is actually more backwards compatible, as you can opt to export it to Finale 2012 format.

My mom and I are fighting about money... well, the lack thereof.

With they things the way they are (and my unfortunate problem with spending money like a drunken sailor), I'm surprised the repomen aren't at the door to take my stuff. But I pay my bills on time and the interest is racking up (the credit card companies are happy).

Things are much worse than I expect. I am surprisingly calm, but I am stressed thinking out what's going.

Plus, my dad broke his neck a few weeks ago, so I can't get money from him and my mom makes less than I do at work (at least she doesn't have 7 maxed out credit cards), so finding money from parents is out. I'm supposed to be the one who manages money wisely (I can manage it wisely, I just have high costs of living -- damn you California and an insatiable want to buy things for my new apartment).

So this is going to be a really lame/bad/whatever holiday... and November and December are like my favorite months ever!! Odd numbered years for me are always not the greatest, so I am surprised that I had so many great things from this year. I knew that going to Europe was not great (there went about $7,000) and that trip to NY is not going to be bad, but still a minor dent (I'm allocating $500).

And this is why I can't study for the CPA exam. Because it's teaching me about recording money and all the tax stuff and some law... I am so distracted..

I do, but I haven't talked with them for a while. And they most likely will say no.

My grandparents have money, but I hate asking them for so much.

I'm gonna try doing that tomorrow. My credit is shot through the roof because of all of my inquiries and high balances on my cards.

I still need like $2500 to move up north... I have like $600. Best thing is, I get like $1500 from my firm at the end of January and my CPA exam fees get reimbursed.

But the worst part is... our house in in foreclosure (meaning bank will hold auction for house) -- so my mom is asking her real estate friends to buy our house so they can sell it for a profit. Still, this is a looming disaster.

Just try to pay off one for now. I don't know how much you owe for each card, but it's worth a shot? Besides they know you have to pay them back or they'll disown you.

Hmm if your mom can convince them to buy the house for a dollar...or have someone buy it to sell it back to you...sheesh ._. this really is a mess...

le bank is in control now. There is a minimum they're willing to accept.

And our house is kinda a mess, about $40,000 in work needs to be done. Plus the pool out back... well, it USED to be a pool. It's just a lot to take.

Lol, a friend of mine did this and it helped her with her spending problem-it might work for you too:

1) Take all of your credit/debit cards and but them in a bowl of water.
2) Put the bowl of water and cards into the freezer.

She seriously did this and it helped. Plus, it was funny to watch! xD

You should never treat it like borrowed money or spend more than you have in a debit card.

I did. I have MONTHs of spreadsheets to prove it (and Ruto can attest - I am an accountant, we LOVE putting money amounts into excel) -- I used to pay everything in full, but then I just went crazy with the 0% interest for 18 months and a $6,000 credit limit (which was way too high) -- Like I said, self control is something I don't have (e.g., coffee) and I went to Europe and I spent money when I was making tons of it in the summer. Stupid me, stupid me.

I have become like the typical American in the mid-2000s before the huge recession. I grew up in an area where people have SHITTONS of money (many, many of the people I went to high school) -- It's part of the mentality (which is why I must leave OC). I just need to use only my debit card, my Costco AMEX and my corporate card for work.

Post by: Ruto on November 07, 2013, 11:37:44 PM
Oh my, yes. I've put off Europe for 3 years now...

My sis started with a $7k limit but she never spent anywhere close to that. Any amount of credit card interest is too scary for her, I think. Same for me too. I can't even stand paying fees of any kind especially to a company that owns a skyscraper in an expensive area of Manhattan >__> I see it every time I go to the bookstore or park -.- It's like saying "lol see what we did with your fees and interest payments."

Anyway today I found out my former classmate married suddenly and quickly because she was pregnant. She posted her newborn baby pic today omg -.- Well I guess I'm relieved that I never rushed into anything like that.

There isn't really much to say about what happened anyway, so I can't think of much to type here.

One thing worth mentioning is that my asshole friends were the ones who kept convincing me to ask her out (even her best friend was pestering me to).  Now that I asked and she said no, they've all shifted from calling me a pussy to calling me an idiot.

Thankfully, Jackie (the girl I asked out) is the nicest girl in the world, and she agreed to pretend that this never happened so we can still be friends.

I've learned from experience to not tell my friends who I like, just for that reason. It's happened too many times to other people in my group and no way in hell am I letting it happen to me. Sure there are some people I trust, but the other ones can always weasel it out of them

I think a mutual understanding that it's not something that is of interest and in the realm of possibility, rather than simply "pretending it never happened", would be more conducive to keeping a strong friendship and avoiding lingering awkwardness.

At least, it's worked out for me in such cases and I believe better so.  Though perhaps that is what you are actually doing.

Oh once you get your extra memory stick... you'll have 16GB of high bandwidth memory. that's nearly 6GB/s, You could make a RAMDisk as a hyper-fast scratchdisk, system cache... install Finale to it, whatever you want! There are programs available to dump the contents of the RAMDisk to an image file upon shutdown, and reload it upon boot so it doesn't disappear. Unless of course you lost power. Still.... 10x faster than a high end SSD!! I use mine as a buffer for my system drive and tries to have data prepared before I even need it :3

Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: MasterProX on December 05, 2013, 08:52:35 PM
So originally these asshole friends of mine kept pestering me to ask this girl (Jackie) out. Despite the many reasons I gave them as to why I didn't want to (we had only really been friends for a few weeks, I'm not good with these things, I already know she'll say no, and so on), they kept saying, "No, these are just excuses because we all know you don't have the balls to do it."

So I did it. As I expected, she said no. (Some idiots even asked me why she said no. "Why would she say yes?" I told them.) She also said herself that we've "only been friends for a few weeks" and that I kinda "suck at this sort of thing". Gee, now why does that sound so familiar?

After I told all these things to the assholes who kept telling me to ask her out (even how all the reasons I said I shouldn't were the reasons she said it was awkward and whatnot), they're calling me an idiot instead of a pussy because she (apparently) would've said yes if I wasn't "so stupid."

...the fuck?

And I didn't feel like posting this in that other thread. Dunno why. But here's a more detailed explanation. So now I've been rejected ten times... I don't feel like trying. Ever again. And it doesn't help that this other girl I like complains about how people think she's "unattractive" (even though I told her she's NOT) and how no one likes her (even though she KNOWS I like her).

Much confuse. Very bewilder. So puzzle. Wow.

Post by: Ruto on December 05, 2013, 09:34:41 PM
That was really mean. It sounds like they were just using you for some entertainment -.-

For the other girl who complains about being unattractive, she's doing that because she's not really interested...they ignore that to try avoid any further comments or situations. At most, they'd just say thanks and change the topic (if they're not interested). How much do your friends know about girls anyway? If they're not interested, they're not interested...

You might want to try again later when they grow older lol. Then they would have some common sense.

Common sense? Pfft, no one here has any common sense. You should've seen my English class. It was fucking pitiful.

Teacher: Since this verb happened before this other past tense verb, we'd have to change it to what tense?
*short pause*
ENTIRE CLASS: ...present tense?
Me (by myself): How the hell can the present happen before the past? Stupid people... it's past perfect.
Teacher: Yes, that's right... didn't you guys learn about past perfect before? Come on, people, you should've learned this in elementary.

And these assholes in my Spanish class are at least as bad.

ive always heard, "If you can't be happy outside of a relationship, being in one won't change that." In other words, it's not gonna solve your problem of being lonely. Only you can do that. Just surround yourself with positive messages as much as you can (yes, I know how hard it is), and eventually your life will turn around it, I know it!

In the meantime, throw all your troubles away and just enjoy life!

Yep, this is very good advice! It's true that you'll feel really happy when you first start dating someone, and that's the honeymoon phase you've probably heard about. Eventually that will wear off and you'll still be with the same person, and suddenly you'll have serious things to think about. And the most important thing is to find your self confidence and be comfortable with yourself before entering a relationship, which can take some time, but trust me it's very important. How can you expect your partner to respect or like you if you don't respect yourself? It's also important to not just try to make the girl happy--it's a major turn-off when you care about her more than you care about yourself.

Also, it's really easy to fall into the Nice Guy Syndrome, which is basically when you expect rewards or think you deserve something just because you're nice and think of yourself last. As Steven Chbosky put it, "You can't just sit there and put everyone's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love." If you put your own needs last, you'll never get them, I promise, and it won't be good enough to just have a girlfriend. Eventually you're going to want something else and you'll have to fight for it.

I need to come up with $2000 in 2 weeks.

Post by: DrP on December 08, 2013, 04:10:18 PM
It's a job that starts in January... in San Jose.

I have to put down 1st months rent on a place plus moving expenses... which equates to $2000.

Starting in January (besides my salary), I'll be receiving about $5000, but I have to wait until certain times (firm reimbursements of moving expenses, CPA exam fees and a quite large tax refund)

I do have a plan: Ask family and friends if I can borrow $100 or $200 and pay them back in February. I hope it works.

And even though I make over $50,000 a year (which in the bay area is like $30,000 everywhere else), It's gonna be hard to find money to pay for other things!

--
EDIT:
So I think I figured it out. Unfortunately, living in an area in that I do, I have been afforded a certain standard of living. I guess its time to get rid of the lavishness.

Like this Starbucks card I have that is METAL, It's worth about $500, and then there's my iPhone, which is also $500 (64GB) -- I can get a flip phone (also cheaper plan).

And then there is the extra crap from selling my laptop (I have to give $1000 of it to my grandparents after I borrowed money from them) -- so that's about $1300 -- which covers my rent exactly.

Then theres the $50 from selling my computer monitor (net after a new one).. I guess I can get the rest from my family/friends who have money.

I once had a few finals at 7:10.

I would pull an allnighter and just go to the final (only if I didn't have any others the rest of the day -- which it always happened to be)

It's your school and probably because of the classes you picked too. Every class you registered for has a time slot for finals depending on what time it normally starts and ends.

I actually dropped my 8 am early on in the year, because I still had enough credits, and I'm just going to test out of it for next semester, but I didn't even consider dropping it until waking up for it the first day and realizing "oh, shit, nope, can't do this"

Third period seems to always be the most fun now. Last year, I had Geometry for third, and the teacher didn't care what you did in class as long as you didn't bother anyone else. (He especially didn't mind if you had several hundred extra credit points too...)

This year, my AP World teacher says you can do whatever you want as long as all your work is done. (I just say I finished everything even when it's not done because it's going to be done. Eventually.)

I remember 4 hour labs in college where we had to listen or be busy looking at animal specimens the whole time. People didn't even take out their phones. If you finished early, you'd just get more work (this was in high school).

This is just saying but if the professor knew you weren't paying attention in class they could decide not to curve your grade. And you couldn't complain if your test average was in the 50s or 60s anyway...

It's a somewhat sustainable practice while you're still in ez first or second year courses, but once you get into the meat of your major you kind of have to pay attention (unless you're in some joke major ::))

But duno, seems like you're wasting your time if you go to class just to play DS.  People on phones are at least half paying attention, but playing a game is much less so.  And like Ruto said, that's an easy way to guarantee 0% grading leniency :P

I think it depends on the teacher too, however.  From my experience, teachers don't mind if you don't pay much attention in class so long as you have your work done and perform reasonably well in the class, in addition to giving them due respect.  In high school, I studied Physics in Statistics, did Calculus homework in English, made American History notes in Calculus, and a whole bunch of stuff!  And my teachers didn't mind much; when they wanted me to pay attention, they told me and I conceded.  It's the same way for my classes in college; my Biology professor allows me to use my laptop in class, my Chemistry professor lets me play games on it, my Calculus professor lets me do homework on it, etc.

Of course, that's not to say that you should do such things in class.  If you can truly benefit from paying attention, then by all means, do so (I have to concede that I do take notes in Biology!).  If you don't feel that you're learning from the teacher, you should at least study the subject while in class if you decide not to pay attention (eg. my Calculus professor permits me to study Calculus III).  As long as you do your work and don't cause any interruptions, you should be fine.

Yeah, as most of my classes have like 50+ people, it doesn't really matter if people show up or not. If you don't want to listen to the lecture, there's no need to show up at all.

Next semester is interesting as I'm taking classes for my master's degree and they are much smaller, like ~15 people or something. Also one lecturer is my boss and one TA is my coworker (and my thesis advisor) so that's going to be interesting. Better not fail, I suppose.

The WiiU I can understand as having a broader appeal, because, like waddle and FSM said, you can watch youtube on your TV, from the comfort of your couch/whatever. The 3DS feature I can imagine is aimed at younger kids who (hopefully) don't have smartphones, and either don't have their own PC or aren't in a place where they can use it.

That being said, that intent doesn't quite make up for the shitty problems you guys have pointed out about them, haha. Personally, I can't even get my WIFI to work most of the time on my 2DS, because it isn't WEP, so I have some different issues with that :P

Sorry, what I meant by that was that my school uses a very non-standard method of connecting to our WIFI that doesn't seem to be compatible with the 3DS. Essentially, the WIFI requires both a username and password (unique to each person), and I've yet to find a way in which this can work with the 3DS, as it doesn't function as a singular WEP key.

Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: KefkaticFanatic on December 15, 2013, 04:08:34 PM
Nah some authentication requires both username and password rather than just a simple WPA or WEP key, and the archaic networking of the 3DS can't support that.  I can think of eduroam as an example, where when connecting you are asked for both of those items.  Any device following the standard, up to date wireless specs will be able to prompt you to enter those, but I am guessing the 3DS just doesn't know how to handle it and says ERROR.

And I guess if people don't have a laptop to plug into the TV and for some reason are using a Wii U as a home theater device rather than something more versatile like a PS3 or just desktop PC it might make sense, but anybody serious about home theater setups wouldn't only have a Wii U :P

The 3DS only ever prompts for a security code for authentication. Many buildings such as schools where people have a universal username and password use the same for internet access. Basically, it's impossible to log into those with a 3DS because it misinterprets the security or can't comprehend how it works and you can't enter a username.

Some routers do support something like that, but it's dependent on the router alone. I know that mine has a guest signal that does that, but my school does not.

You haven't encountered it probably.  This isn't one of the services you authenticate via a webpage, but rather one you send the credentials in the same fashion as you would a WPA or WEP key.

EDIT: Ah, here's the exact spec: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.1X

Essentially it's an enterprise Wifi solution that for whatever reason Nintendo decided not to support.  Perhaps the same logic that led them to neglect WPA support on the DS... ::)

On my AP Environmental Science final tomorrow, it's 75 questions, but the total score will be out of 60 because my teacher is always "generous" like that.  (The tests are always super hard.)

To get an A on my report card, I need 72/75 (or 72/60) questions correct.  Considering I got 29/50 on the last test, plus the 10/15 bonus questions = 39/50... I can't do this.  My friends who already took the final said it's hard.

And the pictures he took of it are all blurry. Even then, the questions I could read are still too hard to figure out now.

Oh, so yesterday I got my brother to give me, Jackie (the girl I'm experiencing... problems with), and her sister a ride to their house, since it was hot as hell and they actually considered walking all the way home...

After the subsequent incidents, I'm not allowed to be seen anywhere near Jackie anymore or I will literally (I'm serious) be shot dead.

But they went out without telling them for about a month or so, and when they found out, they actually didn't care that much, because my friend didn't fit their stereotype for "asshole high school guy".

Dude. Let it go. I've been in a similar situation like you that you try everything possible to get a girl, and with every step it just gets more awkward. The fact that she was offering you "a kiss" was probably just her trying to test if you were still after her- high chance that it was probably just a Hershey's kiss. Like seriously. That's one of the oldest tricks in the book. Also, stooping for what smells like a sympathy kiss wouldn't be a good idea.

What you need is a break from this girl. Is she REALLY worth this much of your time? Trust me, I spent three years obsessing over my ex before we started dating, and yeah, we were really happy, but before we broke up, I had never even imagined the possibility of other girls in my life. That leads me to something I like to call the Bacon Principle , which I will post later due to my current location.

Trust me dude. Give it time. Stop obsessing about Jackie, and spread your wings. You need a new muse.

The universe thinks so too, was all like "Nope." and her car broke down literally on her way to the restaurant. BUT luckily, she was picked up by her overbearing, borderline abusive father so that ended any plans for the night. And the week before, I was scheduled for closing shift 5 fucking nights in a row and the other asshole assistant manger wouldn't cut me a fucking break and take the one day I needed off for a date.

Just waiting to see what punches the universe throws next.

It is not in great condition. It is scratched and dirty as hell, and will just bring up the error screen at random times during battles (and if you've ever played Skies of Arcadia, you'll know just how often that has the potential to happen). I got up to the point where

Although, my original copy was for the dreamcast, where there's double the risk (in a sense), because it's a 2-disc set. The first disc works fine, but the second one was scratched, and wouldn't work at all :/ so this is my second time getting to around this point in the game and being unable to continue. (third, or maybe fourth, if you consider the fact that I forgot once or twice that the second disc was scratched, and started a new game after not playing it for a while).

Depending on where it was ordered from, you may be able to go through some sort of appeal process to get a refund or exchange (in the case of a larger business that may have had multiple)

Sophie's Choice, by William Styron. I have most of it planned; the rest, I dunno.

Like, I think the theme is suffering and how it affects everyone (my proof is this one quote about how the Nazis were out to kill not just the Jews). However, I need a figurative illustration for this. And I suck at drawing.

Any ideas, first of all? A picture to portray the universality of suffering?

I've not read the book either, unfortunately, so I'm not sure if I can be of much help, sorry!

Reading from just the Wikipedia article though, it seems that a prominent theme is a 'Sophie's Choice' being a choice between two bad options, or simply choosing the greater of two evils.  You could do something for that potentially.  As for the illustration on suffering, I suggest doing what Ruto recommends.  Like, maybe you could show a picture of Sophie's head and a word bubble saying "I'm feeling great!" and in a thought bubble, you could show a bunch of destructive imagery to reflect the chaos resulting from WWII.

Or maybe you could do a Before-After type thing with two completely different people and then convey how both of their lifestyles were completely altered in the After picture.

Just try to be creative with it!  Even though it's figurative, it's really still just an illustration.  An illustration in essence is already figurative; it's a picture, so there has to be meaning behind it, there being so few words (or even none at all!).  Go with Ruto's suggestion of Photoshop if you're not a proficient artist (or alternatively use GIMP or some other online source if you don't have Photoshop; Ruto would probably know more about this, I would imagine if she has more input).

Well, considering the fact that English is a subject focusing on the analysis and employment of written language, we can definitely exclude visual art as a manner of writing. As for analysis, visual art is a particularly abstract medium, in which a minimal amount of thought about "meaning" can result in a very "meaningful" piece of art (depending on the spectator). And, since teachers generally try to be objective about grading such things, as long as it appears that you put a significant amount of effort into the actual creation of the artwork (the one part of the assignment with no relevance to the subject), you're probably fine. So, yes, I would definitely say that it is irrelevant, and unless you consider "bullshitting artwork based on flimsy literary evidence" to be a valuable skill in life, then it is useless, as well.

Er, art is just as valid a medium as anything else. I'll admit though that it's really kiddie to draw a picture to represent understanding of a book (especially for an honors class).

I don't think their teacher would lower their score if the drawing quality is bad, since that'd be silly. I feel like the picture is meant to show the teacher that you've understood the book.

Tbh, I could very well see myself using this technique as a teacher. I wouldn't have to read that long essays. A picture is worth a thousand words

Also, what was the picture about?

If you assign something out of apathy, odds are it isn't a good assignment. And those "thousand words", if you took the time to look for them, would take a lot more time to find than just reading an essay. Not to mention, those words will be different for anybody looking at a piece of artwork, making objective grading based on the ideas presented very difficult.

I'm not talking about the drawing quality, I'm just talking about the amount of effort put into it, which is more visible than you would think. And yeah, of course it's meant to show that you understood the book. I'm just saying it is far from the best medium to demonstrate that you did. My point is not that visual art is an invalid medium; I'm saying that it's an abstract one. Even if there is a specific interpretation of the book that the teacher is looking for (which is an uncommon and incorrect way to go about it), artwork meant to represent this could easily be interpreted as meaning something else; the same goes for the reverse situation. So, most teachers, when handling this assignment, would just look for a glimmer of relevance to the book, and then base the rest off of how much time it looks like you spent on the assignment. Even if you're asked to write an explanation of how the artwork relates to the book, not only would that involve less insights than would writing an essay, but it is also much easier to write bullshit based on your own art than for a book.

I think this all the time. Even for photography. If they're just doing something artistic, I'd expect to see some skill from the artist...blurry photos, bad lighting, bad proportions, bad use of medium and obvious bullshitting...they're everywhere -.-

Not a single stoichiometry problem on the chemistry final*. NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM. I was prepared for it! I was expecting it! I was excited for it! But nope! Ideal gas law ideal gas law ideal gas law. ALL of the last few questions (maybe six to eight of them): Ideal gas law ideal gas law ideal gas law!!!!

Rule of thumb: Don't trust the test prep/study guides too much!



*There was one or two mole conversions, but not like the more complex "convert given quantity to wanted quantity, using moles as an intermediate" which I was so proud of being prepared for.

...also, about 47% of the answers on the test were B (assuming I got them right, of course). :P


EDIT: And don't get me started about that history test! Now, I normally love history, but that test was PAIN. They emphasized ALL the little details that you wouldn't even bother memorizing (there were quite a few trivial questions that I don't even remember reading about, like EXACT QUOTES from The Republic by Plato, which I went over for maybe one page in the early chapters... and yet, they didn't ask about other aspects of Plato's beliefs about government, and the same goes for Aristotle).

I haven't seen it, but this happens so much. I'll be eating lunch and my friend will turn to me and sing the "Let it Go" part and expect me to join in.

Hearing everyone freak out about it is actually having the opposite effect on me: I really don't want to see it. It's kinda the same reason why I'm not going to watch Supernatural or Sherlock (though there's PLENTYof other reasons besides that...)

You should.  Probably one of the most memorable Disney songs I've heard since Beauty and the Beast's soundtrack.  (And Pirates of the Carribean, but I think some people don't even know that's Disney)

Fixer Upper was by far the weakest song imo. Let It Go is easily the best, and another one that I think people forget about is "Love Is an Open Door." I love that one, not necessarily because it's a great song, but because of how clever the composition is when you think about it:

Major plot spoilers for Frozen
The music is really simple and there isn't too much to it. It's sort of odd how "informal" and bubbly it sounds for a scene where Anna's meeting the love of her life...oh yeah, because he's secretly the big bad and that isn't real love at all.

Fixer Upper wasn't bad, it was just out of place considering where it was in the story.

Love is an open door
I think that the best part of that song was that some of the lyrics were implying that Hans didn't really care about Anna ("You and I were just meant to be") for example

HOW CAN YOU SAY SUCH A THING
That was by far my favorite song in the film. First of all, catchy as fuck. Second, it manages to have actual emotional substance (dat last verse), humor (hang in there, Joan), and significance to the plot (hell, it essentially drives the plot). Olaf's song, on the other hand, basically just had the humor. What did it mean for the main plot? Lol literally nothing. And unless you count "Oh I get it, I'm supposed to find him adorably stupid" as emotional substance, then there isn't really any of that, either.

That was by far my favorite song in the film. First of all, catchy as fuck. Second, it manages to have actual emotional substance (dat last verse), humor (hang in there, Joan), and significance to the plot (hell, it essentially drives the plot). Olaf's song, on the other hand, basically just had the humor. What did it mean for the main plot? Lol literally nothing. And unless you count "Oh I get it, I'm supposed to find him adorably stupid" as emotional substance, then there isn't really any of that, either.
EDIT: Also, I like Kristen Bell's voice wayyyy more than Idina Menzel's.

I agree with everything you said except for the last part, I like Idina Menzel's voice (and her character) a lot better than Kristen Bell's. But yeah to be honest, I really was annoyed by Olaf's character and don't understand why he's so popular. Yeah yeah, he's a snowman who wants summer, yuk yuk yuk, but beyond that???

I just liked the song.  As far as characters go he's pretty average in the funny department.

drpamplemousse, you should look for charitable organisations that supply free food.  I'm not sure if they're as abundant where you live, but in NYC there are a bunch of them.  Usually, churches and masjids do such things, for example.  Either way, good luck!  Hope you can make it through without too much trouble!

Yup, and you scratched up enough money for moving expenses somehow...anyway, what Mashi said was a great idea!

Anyway, are you able to cook at home? It would save you a lot of money if you did...even if you have a microwave you can at least live off ramen for a few days. Not that it's a good idea, but at least it would give you enough calories to live.

I don't get paid until the 31st because I started after the deadline to submit an I-9 to be paid on the 15th, so I get 2 pay-periods then.. So, I'll literally have about $11,000 in 2 weeks. And I filed my tax return in CA last week, so I have a refund coming from that soon (You can't file federal until the 31st -- and that's my big refund -- like $1800)

They don't give us food (unless we work 10 hours of client billable hours, which I won't have because I am not sure if my big tech project will be given to someone else because the client needs me to be there for a year, but my firm wants me on a bunch of clients to help me grow professionally). If we're out at clients, they give us food. I DO happen to have some leftovers from before I left for LA that I froze and I do have some food (pasta, some soup) -- I don't own a can opener or a microwave (though I should get the $50 Crate&Barrel giftcard I got with my well-being points from work soon to get that can opener). I just can't buy food that is worth eating (meat or something with protein -- as it makes me less hungry than carbs because it takes 3x the time to digest proteins -- especially since I am going to a diet where I am eliminating non-whole/organic grains and cutting back on sugar and RAISING my protein consumption).

Plus, my mom sent a package with the money we get back from my costco membership, so I might get that tomorrow so I can go to the store and buy bread. The only thing, though, that I have a plentiful supply of is alcohol... and lots of it.

Only 11 more days until pay day.

Can openers are like <$10 (nothing fancy, you just need to open the cans for a few weeks) and people throw out microwaves/sell them for really cheap in garage sales, listings, etc.

Although it's surprising how your firm doesn't feed you...not even $10 for lunch? :/ They're paying you dirt pay by their standards, and they can't even spare a few more dollars...

The only food I can think of with any protein is either canned spaghetti, Ikea meatballs, canned fish...hey, maybe you should go to a Chinatown and see what you can pick up from there! I think if you're also struggling for ways to feed yourself, you should just take whatever you can get for a few weeks before worrying about stuff like whole grains. Cutting off sugar is fine though.

Most cost effective way to get your daily protein. HAM. Seriously, honey baked ham is, like, 2.50 a pound at most supermarkets. Get a 10-15 pound ham, bake that shit, you've got 2 weeks worth of lunch right there.

My firm doesn't pay for much. None of them pay for anything really, unless I am in a meeting or something. They paid for my trip and the nice restaurants in LA.

The worst part, I live 6 blocks from Japantown and it has GREAT food, just I need money to get sushi and bento boxes. The closest Chinatown is in San Francisco about 50 miles away.

I have food to last me 2 weeks, it just sucks I can't buy ANYTHING (more of the reason of the rant). Or if I get this fancy client, I won't have to buy food for 6 months!! Which means the only food I'll be buying is PB&J fixins, Cheese and stuff to make desserts... and a bunch of nuts to snack on.

That is literally the one thing I can't eat... I had a bad experience with ham when I was little, so now I can barely stomach it. Once I get enough money, I can get a bunch of chicken at Costco and make Chicken Tikka Masala or chicken in a crock pot with vegetables!

So I was about to post in the Made My Day thread about how I met this amazing girl in my Bio class and that we were into all the same stuff and were gonna go see some concert this Friday. But then I found out she's engaged.

It's like the universe isn't just content with me being lonely. Instead it waves these amazing opportunities for companionship in my face and then stomps them into a bloody pulp.

Onto the next one, I suppose.

^same thing with me.

Awesome girl at work. When asked what is her favorite video game, she replies "depends on the console". She's 11 years older than me and married.

All well. Too old for me and married. I'm not too worried about a relationship. Though it did dawn upon me that you can have a much better life with 2 incomes and a lower tax bracket (Married filing jointly gives the lowest tax in the middle class range)... not to mention a nicer house and nicer furniture.

Onto the next one, I suppose.

So two pieces we printed out for orchestra were Suppé's "Dichter und Bauer" (Poet and Peasant Overture) and Mussorgsky's "Night on Bald Mountain". We played through each today and the Mussorgsky was by far the most badass.

But he said that since we're already playing Beethoven's "Coriolan Overture" and a concerto that hasn't been revealed yet, we could only play one, either the Suppé or the Mussorgsky. Not both.  He made us vote on it, and as I expected, the Mussorgsky won.

But no, it's apparently too hard for us and so we're not doing it. Despite the fact that the first violin section this year is bombastic. And when I was ranting to my friends about it, at least all the cool / good people agreed with me when I said this is bullshit.

Just got back from working at a client today. Woo!!! 11 hours working on a tax provision

A tax provision is an audit of the "income tax expense" line of the income statement that our tax teams at my firm work in collaboration with the audit team. We also help calculate FIN 48 and ASC 740 numbers for Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs) and Deferred Tax Liabilities (DTLs), like NOL carryforwards, M&E expenses and other funtastic Book/Tax differences found on Sch. M-1, M-3 of Form 1120, 1065 or 1120S.

Did the above make absolutely no sense... I still have no clue what I am doing.

I honestly wish I could be a fly on the wall when you have these discussions with your crushes. I don't see what leads them from "potential interest/friend" --> "doesn't want me to talk to them anymore."

Of course there are also a lot of things that can kill someone's chances at getting a girl/guy:

Do you smell?
Do you have greasy hair?
Do you have an acne problem?
Are you socially awkward?
Are you obese?
Do you talk to yourself excessively?
Do you stare at people for too long?
Are you emo?
Do you stalk people?
Do you think it's fun to draw pictures of people stabbing each other?
Do you pee into water bottles?
Do you walk around with boners?

Ask yourself such questions, and remedy the problem.

Finding someone new is the best way to get over a crush. And if you have my shit luck, you end up doing that A LOT.

I can almost guarantee there's a girl somewhere n you school who likes you and really wants you to notice her. NOW FIND HER, GOD DAMNIT. Now obviously you might find no attraction to her, and that's fine. Usually attraction is a one-sided venture(and I'm currently on both sides of it, which sucks even more). But it's at least nice to know there's someone who thinks about you, eh?

I've just decided that one of my goals in life is to make a better homeschool system. The school I'm with has an excessive amount of problems that often prove to be quite irritating (especially the ones that pop up when you least expect them), as well as numerous "hoops" to "jump" through. I understand that all schools are responsible to the state, but some of the problems are really unnecessary and could be ironed out with a little effort...

this makes me sad

#1 - Is public education really the driving force behind gang formation?
#2 - Teacher-pupil ratio? Good. Teacher qualification and education level? Not so great.
#3 - I feel like this stereotype does not represent the majority of public schools.
#4 - Hahahahahahaha "socializing"
#5 - Ok wait there's no way this can be considered an actual reason
#6 - Why, it's not like you have to go outside. Is a more apathetic school system really supposed to be the benefit of home schooling?
#7 - Well I mean, school prayer isn't really disencouraged in public school, it's just not forced upon everybody because that would be wrong...
#8 - Who cares about appearances when your child will have no friends, am I right?
#9 - Because bringing food from home isn't a thing, and all cafeteria food is inherently bad.
#10 - Now your children get to spend their entire birthdays partying with their...friends?
#11 - Who needs a regular learning schedule, anyways?
#12 - Books? What are books? These were never offered to me, as I only had a lowly public school education.
#13 - Those crazy kids, always going on about rock and roll and whatnot.
#14 - Now you won't have to worry that your children are receiving any influence whatsoever from the society that they're supposed to live in for the rest of their lives! Hooray!
#15 - I MUST PROTECT MY CHILDREN FROM THE HORRORS OF HAVING TO RAISE THEIR HANDS TO GO TO THE RESTROOM. NOTHING COULD BE WORSE THAN THAT.
#16 - I'm pretty sure only private schools with mandatory uniforms can kick you out for wearing pajamas to class, and people who home school are generally more okay with private schools, anyways...
#17 - Now that chores are considered schoolwork, your kids will be way more enthusiastic about them!
#18 - Not gonna lie, this one actually sounds pretty nice.
#19 - Yes, it is only when you homeschool your kids that they will ever interact with one another, ever.
#20 - And by "home", we mean "shut off from the world and anybody with whom you might disagree, despite factual evidence against your own opinion"!

From what you said about that link, I was expecting to facepalm about a forum/article of overly-religious parents talking about why homeschool is better, but I actually laughed a bit, because many of those things are things my own family joke about. :P

I suspect you took that way too seriously, unless there's something I'm really missing, and that image was not intended as a joke, in which case, I am afraid.

The only people I have trouble communicating with are people of my own age (generally- mostly because I don't care for many people of that age demographic for various reasons, but the same can apply to people of any age group). Adults on the other hand (and not just my parents/family members)?
It seems as if you're just making a completely uneducated assumption about homeschoolers. From what I've noticed and/or heard, homeschoolers (what I mean by this is kids who have been homeschooled a majority of their lives) are generally a lot better behaved than public school kids (and often do better academically). And, to be honest, I've met and known public school kids who have worse social skills than I do- and that's saying something.

From personal experience, I know that homeschool is a lot better for me than regular school (and even private schools). My education is practically driven solely by my desire to learn rather than being forced to learn, which is likely to be a problem if I didn't have such a desire. :P

Have you ever been in a public school classroom?

Also, I hate how people auto-assume that Private schools are the best. The graduates they produce usually fail at Uni since they're spoon fed everything on a golden platter.  It's really aggravating to have Private snobs tell you that you have no future when you're at a Public school

Unfortunately, the world isn't as black and white as your homeschooling would have you believe. As much as you like to think that you can do anything alone as long as you learn enough, there are some things you cannot learn or experience without being put into a situation with a lot of other people.

I'm not quite sure how this is relevant, either. You make it sound as though every home-schooled student is motivated by a desire to learn, and none of the students attending public schools are. There are people of both types in both settings, ja? So your statement is totally out of place here.

Yes. Especially so last year, when I was forced to visit one as part of a "Mobile Science Lab" program (and also for finals- fortunately, I didn't have to go there for finals this year, as the local campus was repurposed since the grades of the school were plummeting).

Yeah- I agree with that somewhat. My second-cousin used to go to a private school, and she was usually up very late at night doing homework (and that was during elementary school). Private schools as a concept sound really good, but often, the only advantage they have is smaller class size.

No they aren't, unless I'm not reading in-between lines that don't exist.

You're completely contradicting yourself here. If you whole point was about social skills, then why do you disagree when:
1: You say that it's not only about social skills.
2: That I say that your comment about social skills of homeschoolers isn't always true, and I know numerous public school kids, whether personally or indirectly, whose social skills are worse than my own- WHICH IS SAYING SOMETHING.

You're correct, those are exactly the points I was trying to make. Your comments, that home-schooled students generally are better behaved and perform better academically than public school students, still have absolutely nothing to do with either point. Being "better behaved" has no correlation to having social skills, and academic work is only a tiny, tiny fraction of the real world.

I'm not sure if you bothered to read all of the words in that sentence, but let me explain to you that when I said my point was not just about social skills (the key word being "just"), that implied that social skills had something to do with it. I made a brief point about such things and then essentially said "that's only a part of the problem." There is no contradiction here. As for your second statement, I really can't understand what you're trying to say, due to either poor grammar or poor thought process. I can at least tell that you're referencing your comment "to be honest, I've met and known public school kids who have worse social skills than I do- and that's saying something," and that still has no place in this argument. Anecdotes aren't scientific. And I don't believe anyone claimed going to public school automatically makes you a social butterfly.

That's why your comments are out of place. If you'd like me to bring you into my argument, I must say that your insufferable (and quite unfounded) superiority complex isn't doing much for your point.

Only in kindergarten, but my older brother was in until 2nd grade. Both of my half-siblings were completely schooled in public school. One of the reasons I was taken out is because the teachers didn't like how our mother was teaching us basic math (among other things) before we were taught it in school (a similar experience to Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird). In short, we've just had negative experiences with public schooling. :P

Actually, yes, it does relate to the point, just in a way that's apparently flying completely over your head, as with everything else I say. You say that your point is about social skills right here, yet below, you say that that is NOT, in fact, entirely what your point is about (which is what I'm saying and doing). You say something, and then you literally say something the next sentence that contradicts it- it seems as if, in this case, you're being selective with you "point" so you can ignore whatever arguments of mine that you want.

QuoteAnecdotes aren't scientific.
This is probably one of the worst arguments I have ever seen from anybody, especially in a situation such as this, in which anecdotes are the most important points of information. In essence, you're saying that what I'm saying isn't true, or holds no relevance, despite the fact that that is what my knowledge basis is on (and is quite an extensive basis on this subject, not only from my own experiences, but also talking to others and reading about others about their experiences). You're using this because you can't back up anything you have to say.

QuoteAnd I don't believe anyone claimed going to public school automatically makes you a social butterfly.
Just in case you forget what was said earlier:
Quote from: SuperFireKirby on January 28, 2014, 10:18:11 PMHome schooled kids a generally far less adequate in social skills and the ability to communicate with people who aren't their batshit crazy parents.
I never said that you had said that going to public school makes you social, but I was merely refuting the opposite of that argument (e.g. that homeschool kids aren't social, which is your main point, but isn't). It really irks me when people (and people do it a lot, unfortunately) completely throw a statement (whether my own or somebody else's) to one drastic side of an argument.

QuoteThe problem with talking about yourself (as you seem to enjoy doing) is that no one else is doing so. I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm talking about a very big scale here, BlackDragonSlayer, not you. This isn't a personal attack on you, nor does it even necessarily concern you. That's why your comments are out of place. If you'd like me to bring you into my argument, I must say that your insufferable (and quite unfounded) superiority complex isn't doing much for your point.
The whole argument started from something I said (or rather, SFK responding to something I said). I'm talking about myself because that's what the argument started from- what it involves. I can speak from personal experience to support myself. If I didn't have any personal experience about the subject, I wouldn't be talkign about it, now would I?
Quite frankly, this quote in particular is quite frivolous because you're essentially trying to make it seem as if you never meant that this (http://forum.ninsheetm.us/index.php?topic=1969.msg238767#msg238767) and all of this (http://forum.ninsheetm.us/index.php?topic=1969.msg238772#msg238772) were directed at me at all, and just "happened" to involve me because I just "happened" to make a response (http://forum.ninsheetm.us/index.php?topic=1969.msg238762#msg238762) or two (http://forum.ninsheetm.us/index.php?topic=1969.msg238769#msg238769) to what I felt were completely and insulting biased posts.

QuoteI see. The sudden tone shift here is very amusing. Suddenly it's even more arrogant than is the norm for you.

I edited that in: the only original part was "It's funny how you're blaming me of doing that, when that's essentially all you're doing. No, that IS the ONLY thing that you're doing." And the reason I edited that in was because of your own "superiority complex" and "immaturity," because, as I said, all you're doing is listening to your own arguments... and yet accuse me of doing the exact same thing! Perhaps it was because my head was hurting from banging my head against the wooden desk, but I found it to be a fitting response to your hypocritical attitude.
I'm the first one to joke about how much of a hermit I am, but your comments came off as (and still do) uneducated about the subject matter and even a bit overly critical and completely insulting, if even towards homeschool in general (as if you were saying that homeschool is a bad method of education, or at least inadequate compared to others). I at least tried to start the debate off on a slightly more friendly note (rather, one that wasn't complete flaming).
As I have said above and before, my experience with homeschool isn't limited to my own- we know several families who have had experiences with both public and home school, as well as a few that have been homeschooling for quite a while (even longer than us).

This is one of the reasons I was so outraged in the first place, and made my initial response (to SFK). I just couldn't stand unsupported bashing of the education method, given that it is the method I am involved with and know quite well.

I think this is a good way to conclude the argument:
This article (http://www.usnews.com/education/high-schools/articles/2012/06/01/home-schooled-teens-ripe-for-college)
This one (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/can-homeschoolers-do-well-in-college/)
Certainly this one (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/dec/13/home-schooling-socialization-not-problem/)
And this one (http://school.familyeducation.com/home-schooling/human-relations/56224.html)

Off course, although I say they do relate to the point of the debate in the first place, they probably don't... :P

Uhh thanks for commenting on all the pictures FD xD even I didn't pay that much attention to it.

I'm not saying that homeschooling is bad for everyone. Irene Curie was homeschooled but her mother was Marie Curie for god's sake. There's no question of that quality of education, but many people can't say the same, or we would see more ten year olds go to college.

It's just that maybe half of them are getting a decent, comparable education, and the other half are being taught useless pseudoscience and certain political views. Here's an example (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Beka_Book). What about that other kid on the forum a while back who was arguing with me about how superior his homeschooling was? But had a poor grasp of things being said...or how all other views were totally wrong without any proof?

For social interactions it varies with everyone, but I notice some people are never able to leave their comfort zones after they've been homeschooled.

If people treat you differently (as in, worse, I assume, from how you describe it as) because of your height, then there's something wrong with those people. O_o

So, as you probably know, I moved last weekend.

I also rented a van to get all my stuff moved around. Paid it, drove it, returned it. Moving went smoothly. Everything was quick.

... Except this Wednesday I got an email from the rental company saying that the van was damaged. Apparently it's my fault so I should file a damage report to the insurance company and then pay for all the damages. Oh, also because I'm a dishonest piece of shit and didn't report said damage, they're going to charge me extra. I don't know how much as so far I've found three different clauses on the website and the emails they've sent me. Of course none of this was in the actual terms of service.

But the thing is, I didn't cause the damage. There's no way I wouldn't have noticed hitting something that caused it. I don't have any proof though, so it's pretty much my word against theirs. And guess which of us is in a better position? I asked my brother-in-law who happens to be a lawyer and, well, his opinion was that if I get lucky I might pay something like 400€. If they want to be difficult, I could be paying >1000€. Did I mention that we're talking about a side bumper here?

So yeah, I've got this going for me. In addition to having a nice chunk of my savings taken away by something I didn't do, the damn thing is stressing me way too much. I couldn't get any work done on Wednesday as I had to try to sort this thing out, so I need to do some hours tomorrow. Nor did I succeed at finishing this week's assignments so I guess I'm spending the rest of the evening doing those.

Never renting a car again.

I wish there were more tall girls..

When I look for girls, being over 5'9" is a HUGE plus (no pun intended).

With all the women in my family being above 5'9", it's something I've grown up with and I can't part of it. (Plus if I dated a girl who is 5'4", it'd look like she was in jr high l and it just be really awkward for me to do anything, being 6'4"and all).

Tall girls are just. plain. beautiful. -- now I just need to find one next time I am in Sweden and Denmark... because according to my best friend, the prophecy says I will marry a tall, blonde, Scandinavian woman.

Tall guy likes tall girls?? Great!! Tall girl likes small guy?? Bad!!

basically no one in my age group within an 100 mile radius is growing past 4 feet

Seriously though, and I can speak from experience, if you like a girl taller than you, tell her. Don't be intimidated, that's ridiculous. I'm a huge wimpy mush because I'm genetically forced to be a strong person when that's the complete opposite of what I want to be, and my tall friends (and by tall I mean 5'9 or whatever) feel the same way. It boggles my mind that anyone can be even slightly intimidated by me.

I hate that fact... and the funny thing, the short girls are all attracted to me (mainly this group of asian girls from my office)

BUT

I have to consider genetics... I want tall kids, and with short wife =/= tall kids UNLESS she has a recessive gene of tallness.

SO

If I marry a tall girl and have kids, both tall genes are dominant and THEREFORE, tall kids!

Hands don't reach most sinks
Shower heads in hotels are too low and you need to crouch to shower
No clothes reach past wrists
No clothes reach past waist
No clothes reach past ankles (or shins in some cases)
Comfortable tights are virtually nonexistent
Never able to wear clothes received as gifts because they're never the right size
Giant shoulders
Everyone can see straight up your nose
Old men constantly checking you out
No heels
Not many dresses that fit nicely since they're all tailored for small people
Uncoordinated
Skulliosis
Back problems
Giant feet
Giant hands
Poor circulation and blood pressure
Can't stretch without bumping something/someone
Inflexible
Hit your head on door frames
Feet hang off edge of bed
^consequences: feet always cold in winter
Extra ten feet of leg to shave
(Kinda irrelevant but shin guards in soccer never covered me completely and it hurt)
I always get hit by ceiling fans omg
When sitting in an average chair your knees are angled upwards
Sitting in bleachers is a nightmare
Always having to hold the umbrella
Legs don't fit under piano while wearing shoes
Hearing people under 5'10" complain about being tall??
Almost always the big spoon
When holding hands, the other person's hand is always too low to reach without them holding it up (strangely, arms aren't proportional with height)
Intimidating at first glance
Dating shorter person is very awkward
Having to bend/crouch down to talk to people
Impossible to sit on a typical bus without losing circulation somewhere in legs
Temporary vision and sensory blackout while getting up after lying down for a while
Unintentionally the center of attention
Standing next to a shorter person always produces funny looks/comments
Always catch people staring at you
"Do you play basketball?"
"Do you play volleyball?"
"Do you model?"
"You should play basketball!"
"You should play volleyball!"
"You should be a model!"
"I wish I was that tall"
"[Insert little kid's comment about being a giant]"
"Can you reach this for me?"
"How's the weather up there?"
"Does everyone look like ants to you?"
"Jeez, I should've eaten my vegetables too"
"Tall people can't get fat!"
"Everyone loves tall girls"
"You should just accept being tall"
"Stop complaining, everyone wishes they could be like you"

*read it all* It's actually surprisingly kinda the same for short people but you just reverse everything you said. For example, rather than "Unintentionally the center of attention", it becomes something like "Unintentionally ignored", and rather than "Giant hands", it would be "Hands too small to play piano" for short people. Oh and but I still get things like "'Do you play basketball?'" because apparently, all asians play basketball. And "Intimidating at first glance" doesn't really just apply to tall people. I get that a lot because of my hair, my unintentional glares, my clothes, my serious mood, etc. It's not really your height that's to blame, in my opinion. Also I used to have a crush on a girl 8 inches taller than me but she had a bitch personality so I kinda got over her. xD Moral of the story: Short people have it bad too.

So I got all my pay information.

Turns out that I didn't get paid for the 3 business days before I started working (so there goes $600 -- I was told I'd get money for the whole month)...

and on top of that, they deducted 40% of taxes from my Moving reimbursement (so another $600)

So... it seems that this missing $1,200 is really making me go nuts... why? because i budgeted for it. And on my budget $1200 is ALOT

Hahaha I don't really see height as a problem, but then again I'm on the short side :( And clothes would fit better if I was a couple inches taller. For some reason clothing stores don't think there are such things as short, skinny people.

Maybe you should follow a short person around for a day and see how that's like xD I also had a really tall lab partner last year and she was really helpful!

This so much.

Sounds like America is one big Shire, since I have hardly any of those problems you mentioned(by this I mean problems that should affect a boy as much as a girl).

Also, I'm pretty sure height has nothing to do with flexibility. I can reach my toes with no problem, and you should see me standing on one foot. >:S

What's the point of being able to touch your toes? It's a silly exercise. Whenever we do this at school I'm all, "Toes? No I'm fine with my knee caps. They are quite delicious, I must say."

Well, I worked 7 hours today... and will probably work another 6-8..

Tis the season to be busy, fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

I'll just say that he gave away the location of my base, that I'd spent countless of dozens of hours working on, to an enemy to befriend them... and in the process, I lost almost all my stuff I had there. He said he tried saving my best items, but "died" and lost them all.

You calmly tell him that he wasted 40 hours of your life that you'll never get back again

or you just scream at him.

Try taking the train in an above ground station (I was pretty shocked to see that much snow and ice piled up by the afternoon!), jumping across puddles, walking over the ice in front of empty stretches of sidewalk...all over the city. (That dumbass Hale and Hearty near my school never seems to clear the ice from their sidewalk) Not just on campuses where they can probably pay someone a few dollars to keep the paths in check! I went out at night when there was about 9" of snow piled up and didn't see any plowed streets in the middle of Queens and Manhattan UWS -.-

At least Bloomberg called snow days and Hurricane Sandy -.- And the streets were plowed on time! Before everyone started going home from work!

Yes, Mashi is right!!! The forecast predicted hail and snow and we got a lot of freezing rain. Did you see the trees before the ice melted?

I'm so done with school, but not for the reason you'd expect. Since this is a new year, obviously I would have a different schedule for classes than I did last year. The problem is, so do all my friends. I literally have absolutely no classes with any of my best friends (except for one free period every 6 days, whoopie). So weh, make new friends! I actually did, surprising myself since I didn't really think I was capable of it.

These new people are destroying me. They're literally walking memes, no matter how hard they swear against them. In the middle of a big crowd, on multiple occasions I've had one turn to me and say in a very loud voice something like, "So how far did you get in your Pokedex in Pokemon?". I haven't gone a single day since September without hearing a mention of Tumblr or anime. I am an extreme closet nerd. That is not okay. If I even think about saying anything like "shush stop" I instantly feel extremely shitty because they're just trying to make innocent conversation. Whenever they talk to me anymore, I completely shut down. I can't even remember the last time I've looked them in the eye or even in their direction when we're having a conversation, but they don't take the hint or notice at all.

I've seriously considered dropping these guys many times (theres about 3 or 4?), but if I do I'll have to endure the rest of the school year completely alone (not to mention having to see them in every class and dealing with the awkwardness). My other friends refer to them as my "fan club", since its very obvious. I'm slowly getting more and more distant from them, my other friends, and people in general. I can't even talk to any new people anymore since there's always at least one of them clinging to my hip

I've been holding this in for a while since they're pretty active on the internet and I didn't want any of them to possibly find this, but I don't care anymore. Find me. Do something.

I actually agree with this. If you can't have good friends, don't have friends (at least, that's what I go on- what's the point of having friends if they're not good friends?)! As Nocturne said:

There's no way I could do that. I like interacting with people, just not those people. And this is only until the end of the year, since next year I will (hopefully) have a different schedule than them.

It's not often that I can relate 100% to something that someone brings up in this thread. Bubbles I hear ya. I went through the same thing. I was a complete closet nerd in high school and the closest my love of video games ever got to my social life was friending NSMers on Facebook xD

Then those irl friends, the ones that you're talking about, completely blew my cover. Like no turning back. I brought my DS for them to oo and aah over some shinies and they ran around the building with it shouting how many cool pokemanz I had (they weren't that cool, they were just noobs).

Quickly realized that nobody really cared though. If you have enough social skills (as it sounds like you do) to be engaging and make a solid friend group, all while closeting away the nerd realm, you can still be that same person, attract the same people, and also make a Pikachu joke every once in a while. Just be you (cliche but true).

Lol I was very much a non-closeted nerd in high school, but my social life worked out fine. People really don't care, as long as your personality doesn't otherwise resemble the stereotype. My closest friends were similar, yeah, but that doesn't mean I couldn't branch out just because I came to school on Halloween dressed up as stuff like Ash Ketchum, Toad, and Han Solo. Maybe it's not as easy for girls, idk, but in my experience, people don't actually dislike nerdiness, they just dislike the antisocial personality that tends to come with it.

Post by: MaestroUGC on February 11, 2014, 07:47:17 PM
Yeah, if you stick to yourself most of the time, your nerdiness has nothing to do with it as your body language clearly indicates to other people "No, not you. Go away."

Being a "loner" is a double-edged sword like that.

Oh believe me, the nerds in my school are FAR from antisocial...and I'm enough in the middle of the two to know I don't want to be on that side. There's next to no actual confrontation to those you dislike, its mainly all gossip. I'm trying to not offend anyone, but my school is not a place to be a nerd.

Just be you (cliche but true).
I brought in my DS too, but the difference is I regret it. As soon as I took it out of my bag I let her play it by herself and pulled out some homework or something, acting like I wasn't with her xD And I'm not really sure if I have good social skills or not. I tend to be quieter than the norm but no one really ignores me for it. I might go a day or two without talking to anyone but my immediate friends, but I always try to keep my body language looking like I do care (like Maestro said). I'm just too much of a nervous mess to interact sometimes hehh

I know exactly what I want in a friend, the problem is that they're just not available for the next five months

I think my main issue here is that they don't have any self control, which is a huge deal and what I strive for most. They get praised by teachers and online people for it, so that encourages them even more >.>

In general, if you have to hide how you feel, you're not okay with how you feel. Being dishonest is no way to do anything. If you don't tell them you need a break from being friends you're almost being unfair to them.

^That's how I've been feeling most of the time, but on the other hand I am literally their only friends. They always bitch about each other and I feel like I'm the glue holding them together.

And I think I misled all of you guys when I said I was a "closet nerd". I'm not constantly repressing my fangirl emotions in public, and I don't feel like I'm holding back any part of me in order to fit in. I enjoy being with people during the day (whether I talk much or not), and when I go home I play video games or something. That's basically "me", and I'm fine with that. It's two separate worlds that I don't want interfering with each other, because that is not "me"

Everyone compartmentalizes their life and personalities to some degree, so I totes understand where you're coming from Bobbels.

This is exactly the way I feel. You don't want people to think "video games" when they think of you, because there's more to you than that.

As for advice, just tell them. That way they can go find a new best friend that actually shares their PDA towards nerd-life, instead of wasting their time trying to get you to play along.

Trying to break a friendship passive aggressively (social ques) is a really bad idea. You're forcing them to bring up the subject, which is both cruel (because they're not the ones that want to end it) and ineffective (chances are they have caught on, but just don't want to accept it.)

I mean, you should probably just tell them that you do find that annoying and perhaps tell them you would rather they didn't always talk about it, since that isn't the sort of image you want to have.  Better than being all passive aggressive and not acknowledging anything at least.

Just "girl talk" and be straight with them. Do it privately, but make sure it's in person. Not going to sugar coat it; it will hurt their feelings and you probably will feel bad about it, but it's better in the long run.

This is old news but the school chancellor for NYC made the public schools open today so the parents of those students could have a place to leave their kids to go to work (only to get out of work early to pick them up), and get a hot lunch (?!!). I'm sure she means well, but she's an idiot because 9.5" of snow fell today with high winds and then there was a thunderstorm. The snow is going to start again soon.

Someone posted a picture of her walking miserably in the snow in the afternoon. That cheered me up a little xD

So there's this guy at motk who is obviously ESL, but wants to help us do the translations for the English patch for Hopeless Masquerade.

I mean that's great and all, but they're all machine translations. :|

I can't believe people are this retarded. We had a translation homework to do, and the teacher assigned us teams (why the fuck do we have to translate a text in teams is beyond me) and I ended up being paired with complete retards. I sent them my work wayyyy before the translation was due, and they just decided they wouldn't use my part and give me 0 'cause they're fucking morons and they decided they don't like me. Also, from what they keep telling everyone, they suck hard in every single class and they fail pretty much all of their translation exams, and they even like to "brag" about it. It's nice to know that people who don't know what they're doing decided to work on their own and not use my translation, especially when I'm probably the only one who could've saved our paper.

Me too. At least let us choose our partners... So I don't have to work with complete retards.
The other problem is that, in translation, there aren't... perfect answers. Sure there are ways to translate certain words and expressions, but the way you want to write your sentences and the way you want to write the text is different for everyone. So every time we get to work in teams it's annoying, because everyone argues all the time, since "my idea is better than yours".
Also my teacher can't teach at all, she's one of the worst teacher I've ever had, and all my friends who are in this class agree with me. She doesn't teach well, she loses her students' papers... Once she lost all of her students' final exams. She ended up giving everyone A+. How is that even possible xD
At least this one paper is only worth 15% of my final grade, so hopefully I can still get a decent grade at the end of the year even if I don't have a good grade on this stupid group translation.

Speaking of school...

I really don't understand the logic behind many of the decisions my school makes. For the Geometry course, they had four weeks of lessons as normal, then (literally out of nowhere, as the course is being updated as they go along, unlike any of the other courses) WENT BACK a few chapters to go over materials that would have helped us during the first four weeks (and then they specifically instruct you to go back and do the previous lessons over again if you had trouble). That's very poorly-planned and extremely counterproductive.

We tried playing Brawl online when it came out and there was just awful lag everywhere :x But, my friends and I only ever play Melee now anyway.  Plus you can run it on an emulator, hook up a usb to gamecube adapter, and use some fancy hacked iso to enable smooth netplay :D

I guess I never liked MKWii compared to the portable ones so I can't comment on how that played since I don't think I played it online more than twice.

Brawl online got kinda tiring fast. Just playing against a bunch of random people with no means of communication (and a considerable amount of lag, most of the time) takes the fun out of the game. What is super smash bros without the in-person experience of friends getting really mad at each other/dicking around?

Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: SuperFireKirby on March 05, 2014, 10:48:04 AM
For under $40, I'd go with these: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-Precision-Enhanced-Earbuds-Black/dp/B001EZYMF4/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_y

I own a pair that I use when I work out and their sound is very nice for the price. Only problem is that Sennheiser had the genius idea of making the split part of the cable asymmetrical, so one part is longer than the other. But that's only a big deal if you use them for running, where it gets REALLY annoying.

Also, Amazon bumped up the price $10 from what they were when I bought them a few months ago. Probably can find a better deal on another site(you usually do with headphones)

The reason of the asymmetrical cable is for you to wrap the longer one around the back of your neck so when you take them out they hang around your neck and dont just flop way down.  It's an alrighttttt thing but yea I would rather just have had standard cable :P

And so I go to Trader Joes to get the stuff I need. Of those things I get garlic.

I live 30 miles away from the garlic capital of the world (Gilroy) and the garlic I got was from Argentina (6000 miles away)!!

I should've gone to Costco and got the 5lb bag of peeled garlic from Gilry for $6 instead of spending $2.50 on this crap and spending 45 minutes peeling garlic

Perhaps you need to refine your technique... try cutting the ends off first, or putting the cloves in an closed container and shaking it up.

Nope. I peeled 6 heads. I could have also been adding the time to peel ginger too.

Usually I cut off the ends and then I peel and the skin separates easily, but this stuff you had to really go at it to get all the skin off.

Hm, whenever I get garlic from Trader Joes it's always in a pack of 2 and a similar sort of price (maybe a dollar cheaper?), but I guess it might be a regional thing ._.

Maybe. Trader Joes does some effort to provide regional things to their stores. Like we have a whole aisle dedicated to local craft breweries at our store, whereas the one down where I went to school was not as large.

But the best deal is the 4lb bag of peeled garlic for $5.99 at Costco. The only problem is that it goes bad after a month, but if I use 3 cups of garlic a month (at least), then it's worth it.

People usually don't go to the doctor every time they're sick, but four months is a bit long to wait (I've sometimes had lingering coughing from a cold for a while after all my other symptoms go away, but never for anywhere near four months time).

I had an upset stomach and other symptoms like that for a week or two before I went to the doctor, but they said I was completely fine. They tried all kids of tests but here I am a year and two months later with the same problem and no solution. I've kinda gotten used to it, so I understand how people can just forget to get something checked out after it's become a part of their lives.

It's kind of odd that doctors can just be doctors like that. If they weren't sure, they'd ask the chemist (lab work) or mathematician (statistics/probability) or another doctor for an answer. Shouldn't they be fairly certain at some point in their practice or able to make such connections? ._. I won't even get credit for a problem if I didn't get it right on the first try...

I think I knew a guy who had similar problems, but it took 5 years for them to figure out it was celiac disease for some reason. It's probably not something that serious, but maybe it's something you're eating?

I went a week or two with specific restrictions on my diet (no dairy, etc) and the only thing we haven't tried yet is omitting gluten. Honestly though I'd rather eat gluten and suffer than be diagnosed and have to avoid it forever. I'd be miserable if I had to live gluten free

It's interesting that you mention that: my mother is one of those people (frequent headaches that last for very long times without any complete relief, varying in pain level, but not migraines)- she even had brain surgery years ago to remove a tumor (I remember it especially well because it was only two days before my birthday). We think she might have a CSF leak, but otherwise, we (and the doctors) have no idea what's causing it (and all of her medical problems have been going on since she was young).

In addition, she has Sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (and she's probably not the only one in our family to have it).

If you had full on Celiac disease, you'd probably think differently once your intestines started destroying themselves XD and if not then, at least once you've died

Both my mom and my best friend at college have it, it's not a pretty disease in the slightest. Alternatives to wheat products are becoming more and more abundant, though.

I've actually gone through the same exact process you're going through now; shitload of tests, dietary restrictions, etc. It's possible you just have a really sensitive system, like me (at least, that's what they decided after all of those tests), in which case you just have to do what I do and eat especially healthy. It's also possible that you have irritable bowel syndrome, which is essentially what doctors go to when they've checked off every possible food allergy/intolerance and possible unhealthy eating habit. Honestly, hope that you either have a generally sensitive system or Celiac disease, because from what my doctor told me, they don't have a very effective way of treating IBS as of right now. Hell, they don't even have an effective method of testing for it.

Although I'm surprised they didn't already test you for Celiac, considering it's (generally) detectable from antibody levels in a simple blood test, and they probably already had you take one.

I had to go gluten and dairy free starting at age 7 (before it was cool and there was an abundance of products like that -- we had to go to special health food stores to find it).

And the best part was, I went in for tests around age 9, NO ALLERGIES... but did that give my mom any ideas to let me have wheat and dairy?? NO! I wasn't allowed to have dairy products until high school (and I figured out ways to coax adults into letting me have Mac & Cheese or ice cream or all that food).

and let me tell you... it SUCKED. Barley pasta... it literally turned to mush. and soy cheese... YUCK!

I also have the crazy thyroid stuff, so I have to take pills for the rest of my life.

I have one more day to infect people with it, but there's a good chance you still wouldn't be able to get it from me anyway...it's not fun at all :( The last time I lost weight was when I had food poisoning. That's no fun either.

I don't really see a reason for you to be unhappy with your weight unless it's really unhealthy. It's not like only the tall, skinny people get the attention. I'm also saying this because the anorexic weeaboo on facebook is making status updates about taking laxatives and how 118 lbs is fat. Ehh.

Wahhh I made a typo xD
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: DrP on March 29, 2014, 07:36:35 PM
^yeah, the unhealthy part.

My doctor says I should weigh between 210 and 220, I am around 290 (though I may show much less because I'm tall). I just need to be at a healthy weight again.

I just love eating and I don't like exercising alone (like, if someone invited me to go hiking or kayaking, I'd SO Go). I like talking when I'm exercising because It distracts my mind from doing it... I became immune to music a long time ago.

and 118 is like RIDICULOUSLY LOW. Like health problems for being so underweight.

Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Ruto on March 29, 2014, 08:35:11 PM
Living alone probably doesn't help much :/ It's way too easy to eat too much that way.

118 isn't too low for someone that's on the short side. But I weigh even less than that. I don't know what other health problems the weeaboo has that's related to being underweight yet, so she might not be. Even though she's anorexic and definitely sucking in her waist when she's posting her measurements online for some reason -.-

It's 5 seasons of comedic genius followed by 3 kinda meh seasons followed by an amazing final season. Regardless of knowing the ending, it's worth watching.

Seriously, I'd put it up as one the TV's all-time best sitcoms(and pretty much the last good one).

I still buy some stuff from Amazon because I still have my student prime subscription and sometimes it's a lot cheaper than Target or other places.

It was so wonderful when there was no sales tax, but the state cracked down and broke a deal a few years ago. Our sales tax is among the worst in the country, so you have to account for a large chunk on top of your purchase.

The worst part about california, since Newegg brought in some warehouses and a store in CA, we now have to pay sales tax :(

So, skeptical of the claims of my fellow students that my school's Student Health Center is incompetent as shit, I paid them a visit concerning my recent bout of stomach flu. Here's roughly what was said when I was first put into a room with the nurse:

Nurse: "What's the reason for your visit today?"
Me: "Stomach flu."
Nurse: "What's that?"
Me: "...I'm sorry?"
Nurse: "What's the stomach flu?"
Me: *screams internally*

No, not "What symptoms have you been experiencing?" Just "What's the stomach flu?"

Listen, I know you're not the doctor, and so I don't expect you to have a plethora of medical knowledge, but I think that basic knowledge of common illnesses should be a prerequisite for nursing anywhere.

Which brings me to the doctor, who one would expect to have a plethora of medical knowledge.

From what I've heard, the doctors at our student health center have been known to look up symptoms on WebMD before. I do not know if this doctor was doing that, but she seemed rather focused on her computer monitor as she was telling me the basic advice that practically anybody knows to give to stomach flu patients anywhere. When I asked her a specific question involving recommended usage of probiotics, her answer was: "I don't have very much knowledge on this subject; if you've prior experience with this, I'd recommend doing whatever's been helpful in the past."

Yes, doctor, because the average stomach flu patient is both educated enough and in the right state of mind to be able to distinguish "what is helpful" from random correlation. That set aside, why is it that I, a first-year music major in college with only two years of high school biology under my belt, have more knowledge of bacterial function in the digestive system and medications that impact it, than you, a supposedly licensed medical doctor?

I've never heard the term stomach flu used here. It's stomach virus or sometimes food poisoning (even though I think they're different things, they're used interchangably?). But I guess if I never get another degree, I can work as one of those inept nurses at student health centers :P And still do a better job, which would get me promoted and maybe get me an honorary degree that I don't have to pay for.

My sister took a snapchat of the doctor looking up pictures of a virus on google because he's apparently never seen a case of it in his career...

The problem is, I can't go up and talk with someone unless we make eye contact first. It's ridiculous, but I can't do it. So the whole night I kept trying to catch his eye and I saw him doing it too until I left without ever talking.

I had to give up a friend last Wednesday because she didn't want to jeopardize her relationship, and I've been feeling terrible since then.

It's kinda a long story. We met in the pit orchestra for Sweeney Todd; after that ended, I got her phone number. She told me she wanted to be careful about texting guys because her boyfriend got jealous, so I was careful about letting her start the conversations. That basically got thrown out the window, and I gave up trying to help. Over spring break we both sent each other in excess of 150 messages a day. Her boyfriend got upset when she told him, as you could imagine, so we decided not to talk over the phone.

After a few days, she asked me for math tutoring, so I agreed, and helped her for a few days. One morning, her boyfriend apparently came looking for her, saw her talking to me, and got really mad about it. I don't know what he said to her or what she said to him, but she ended up telling me that I couldn't be in her life at all anymore, and I'm just really depressed.

Yes, I liked her. Yes, I told her. I also told her that I didn't expect anything at all from her. She also flat out said that she would have gone out with me if she didn't have a boyfriend, and was pretty blatant in general about liking me back as much as she would let herself.

So there's my "My Life Sucks" story... I feel stuck... Maybe saying something will help.

Don't you love girls who say they would date you if they didn't have a boyfriend? Because I'm in the exact same situation.

You know what my comment to a girl like that is? Fuck you. Fuck you for leading me on. If you want to date me, break up with your fucking boyfriend and date me. Don't play with my emotions. If you really wanted to date me, you wouldn't be continuing your current relationship.

I mean, it's definitely more complicated than "break up with him to be with me". There's a lot of stigma attached to doing that; if you just up and leave the relationship whenever somebody else comes along, that doesn't set too high of a bar for your level of commitment in that next relationship, either. Granted, her boyfriend sounds like an asshole, so she should really break up with him for that more than anything.

As for my romantic life, that girl I was going to ask out last week, I asked her to dinner today, and she said that sounds awesome, but she's busy this week (i.e. had plans for the time I asked her out to dinner for), and we'll definitely hang out later.

And I don't know what that means.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Bubbles on April 13, 2014, 04:00:30 PM
Girl's perspective: its not always that easy. I personally would never tell a guy that just to avoid drama (even if it was true). If you broke up with one guy to immediately go out with another, some nasty rumors would spread and will probably make everyone unhappy

By hearing your side of the story, it doesn't sound like they're in too good of a relationship and she just hasn't realized it yet. I'm sure she'll come to you after they break up.

ninja'd: Fierce always says things so much better than me. It probably means she had plans but intends to schedule a make-up dinner when shes free?

By what she's said, they're not about to break up. Out of context, sure, saying something like that is kinda insensitive to both me and her boyfriend, but it was more like a fact than anything else. I wouldn't let her break up with him for me anyway. But that's not the point. I feel bad that I can't talk to her anymore, and that she can't talk to me.

I really don't know. On the one hand, she did say "that sounds awesome", which is generally a good sign for something clearly intended to be a date, but on the other hand she's so nice, and could just as easily be trying to let me down easy. Idk, I guess I'll just have to wait until next week to see if she actually follows through.

I dunno. I'm not terribly interested in their relationship.

As for you, I would just say not to worry yourself over it. If she sounded excited, it's likely she is. If she tries to postpone it again and seems nervous about the reason, that's when you might start thinking about it.

Yeah, you both need to be a little more optimistic and focus more on the (more likely) good! Fierce, if you've been friends with this girl for a while she probably actually did have something that she couldn't reschedule. Zunawe, it sounds like the girl only stopped talking to you because of her boyfriend, meaning that when they break up there's nothing stopping her from coming back to you

So, I'm completing a 5 year plan about where I want to live and where it would make sense to go. And I came up with this.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/47236506/Capture.JPG)

Just my Home related expenses are OVER 50% of my Net Income after taxes (which is 40% of my Total income), which leave 23% for Savings and Retirement and the rest for living.

Compared to Washington where my Effective Tax Rate (ETR -- the rate of tax I actually pay) is 9% less and my home expenses equate 34% of my total net pay... The problems with living in an area where everyone wants to go.

I've been waiting for a practice room in my department's FLOOR FULL OF PRACTICE ROOMS to open up for over an hour now, and the same 5 people keep walking past me (as of about 10 minutes ago), checking to see if any of the rooms in this hallway I'm sitting in have opened up. If any of them even try to go into one of these rooms before me, I swear to god I will drag them out if I have to.

It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't audibly complain about how long this is taking. No, fuck you, wait another 50 minutes and then you can complain.

I spent 6-7 hours yesterday studying for today's probability test -.- The harder problems ended up on the test and I couldn't remember how to do all of it still (even though some was nearly identical to the practice). Basically I was doing the same thing I did yesterday but in 2 hours, with the easier distributions omitted and replaced with proof questions. Integrating different kinds of probability distributions repeatedly without a calculator takes more than just 15 minutes sometimes :(

Also no curve.

Trig and chemistry finals tomorrow. Need a 72% to get a B in Trig, no fucking clue what my grade is in chem because I overslept and missed last class. But chem is easy so I'm guessing it's an A or a high B.

I wish math was easy like chemistry. Then I could just play video games and get A's on all my tests instead of 10 hours of studying in the past 2 days and barely managing B's.

Only, like, 95% of the time. ::)

But because it actually has real-world bearings rather than simply being abstract sequences of number, variables, and equations with no real intent or purpose given to them(even word problems, which are just paper-thin disguises on the same bullshit), it's a much easier subject to grasp.

Probability theory, a stats class for science and engineering majors. Proofs are annoying just because it's all about ideas in math instead of just plugging in numbers and solving -.- I can't really imagine inventing this stuff. (Would you have known that var(X)=E(X^2)-((E(X))^2 if it wasn't already written there? Oh and the proof of var(X) was in another part of the test. He really didn't skip a beat...just remembered to take out the easier problems :(

Yeah, I know I have to learn to calculate things by hand, but with computers around I just get so lazy...the concepts are not that hard, but writing everything out is :(

Biology is coll. Looking forward to organic chem because I have an odd fascination with carbon compounds, and apparently being good at geometry is a big plus for understanding the concepts. Also, having lots of ladies ain't bad neither.

Ha! I lured you back to the science major with women.

People say that about organic lol. I think the geometry thing just helps with SN1/SN2 and maybe bond angle calculations, but what helps more is buying one of those overpriced modeling kits.

I'm a stats major and the first year was practically just that. Doing simple calculations that ended up being two pages long. All the seniors were like "oh that's just the first year and after that you'll just let the computer do all the work :))))". Now at the end of the second year, not once have I used a computer to calculate anything and the assignments are only a little bit shorter but a hell lot more difficult and time consuming. I wish I was back in high school solving quadratic equations or some bs like that.

It doesn't force you to do anything, it literally provides no negatives whatsoever, it's just chuck e cheese trying to make use of a new technology.
I liked the Wii for a lot of its first-party titles, but that doesn't mean I stop enjoying the system upon learning that people have used Wiimotes as sex toys (http://geekologie.com/2010/08/i-uh-i-dont-know-if-thats-what.php). Is it weird? Yeah. Would I use it for that purpose? No. Does it have any impact on me whatsoever? Not at all.

I'm not talking about facebook's acquisition of oculus rift. I'm talking about chuck-e-cheese's utilization of it, and people's apparent hatred for this usage. It's not diminishing the capabilities or potential of the oculus rift in any way, it's just using it for a different purpose than you might like, in a setting that you will never, ever, ever, ever, ever have to experience.

I assume that Facebook is the company that is allowing Chuck-e-cheese to utilize the Oculus Rift in the first place, given that they are the current owners of the company that manufactures it. The reason why people are mad is because it shows how they're wasting the technology instead of using for something logical (video games, for an example commonly brought up), or even using it for other, more practical purposes (as in, medical technology; imagine how VR technology can branch out from here- e.g. read this article I found from a quick Google search (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/28/virtual-reality-uses-medicine-autism-ptsd-burn-amputee-victims_n_5045111.html)). It would be like developing an exosuit technology and only using it for an amusement park.

In short:
Sure, it isn't diminishing the potential of the device, but it's leaving its potential completely untapped, and shows how it's being used (or, rather, misused).

On another note, I'm taking a life-changing road trip in 4 days. And I lack an essential road-tripping tool, that being a fucking car. So I have 4 days to make the largest purchase of my life thus far and the car I was planning on buying is no longer available because the universe hates me or some shit. FACK

Then the problem isn't that chuck-e-cheese is getting to use it, it's that other potential developers aren't. It's not like there's a set number of developers who would be allowed to lose it, and now a genius, worthy developer is out of a spot. No, it just means that some kids who still enjoy chuck-e-cheese are going to get to use the oculus VR the way that chuck-e-cheese would have it utilized. There is no net negative in this particular situation, and so there is nothing to complain about.

And besides, it's not like facebook is actively saying "No, game developers, we do not want you to make awesome video game experiences on this headset." The developers themselves are so put off by Facebook to begin with that they're refusing to even work with them. At least, Notch is. Much as I agree with Notch most of the time, I think he was pretty unreasonable in cutting off his development of minecraft for the oculus rift as soon as facebook acquired it. He did it before any negotiation with them, before any sort of announcement or discussion about what their acquisition would mean for his game. So don't blame the people that ARE taking advantage of the oculus rift; it's not chuck-e-cheese's fault that they want to "tap its potential", and one of the most influential game developers of all time doesn't.

The problem is that Facebook's first order of business (assuming that they are the ones directly responsible for the transaction, which they likely are) after purchasing the company was allowing Chuck-e-cheese to use the Oculus Rift, which implies mixed-up priorities (instead of taking the initiative- which they certainly can do- to do something else with the technology to demonstrate that it's in responsible hands instead of that of a money-hungry company who will do anything they want with it :P).

Post by: Kman96 on June 06, 2014, 07:56:23 PM
So a thing happened on Wednesday that's really put a damper on my life. I don't know how to describe it in a different way other than to those who are also aware of the situation, so hopefully by quoting my friend's post and one of my own, you can get a feel for the situation.

Via my friend Katie Zerbst:

"two girls who i graduated with last month were is a really bad car accident tonight. one of them died. the other is still badly hurt. i couldn't believe it... no way it was real. my senior govt teacher who i am rly good friends with always told us "graduation is the last time you all are truly together." and i was like "yeah, sure ms snider." ya know, cuz that's morbid but also has truth. but holy shit it was true. it's unbelieveable that something like this could happen to someone so young.

adults are always saying "you teens think you're invincible" and it's true. you think you have the whole world at your feet and life is yours for the taking. and those things are definitely true. everything IS just beginning. there's No way something bad is going to happen to you. but life's a cruel bitch and it does. it happens all the time. i know that life ends someday, and that day is a mystery, and i am very nihilistic most of the time because i get lost in my own existential crises where i think about how someday all my family is going to be dead and i'm going to be alone. but you never think that today, or tomorrow could be your last. that is never what you think. i know that i take life for granted because at this lull in my life, the summer before college, the leap into adulthood, that i'm taking life for granted. i spend my days doing nothing too meaningful or important. and i never think that i'm going to die. dying seems like something in the far off future, or something that will never come to pass. but it does, and it will. and you just have to accept that it will and never forget that you might probably only get one life, so do whatever the FUCK you want with it. this event tonight has brought tears to my eyes because two wonderful girls had something really bad happen to them. but it's also helped me see for real and in the true light that life is WAY too short and precious to sit around idly, to take it for granted, to not do what you want. in this life, you don't have time to take other people's shit. you gotta do whatever u want, because someday we are all going to be dead, one at a time. you gotta make do with what ya got, and make what ya got better. it's cliche as shit, but you GOTTA live life to its fullest, because death is a mystery. i know im going to fall into monotony and taking life for granted again, because everyone always does, but this has changed me. i've never lost anyone super close to me before, and elizabeth and i weren't close, but our class all has a bond with each other, that makes us special. this has affected us all. we're all changed for this.

my last thought is this, its some advice. whenever i get really fuckin depressed about death and everyone i know and love dying, and my own death someday, i think of this. it sounds kinda lame, but it does help.

"No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it. White shores... and beyond, far green country under a swift sunrise." - Gandalf.

so a lotr quote sounds lame when i say it brings me comfort, but it honestly does. i hope it brings others comfort as well.

rest in peace lizzie."

Here are the two girls. Lizzie is the girl on the left, who died in the crash, and Larissa on the right is still in the hospital in "fair" condition. This picture is going crazy all over my facebook, and I feel as if most of my class members have this as their profile picture, including myself.

My own reflection of these events:
"It's my turn, now. I'm not gonna lie, I didn't know Lizzie as well as I would have liked to. Unfortunately we didn't have mutual friends, so our paths never crossed very often. The closest I was to her was the day of Graduation, when our mandatory lines brought us together within a small group of us who talked amongst each other because, let's admit it, grad rehearsal was really boring.

I always remember being intrigued by her last name, Schack. It always stuck with me for it's uniqueness. I guess my brain just works that way. I remember her coming into my Econ class during first semester. I swear, almost EVERY DAY she would come in with a pass for somebody, or at least it felt that way. Additionally, I always thought she was really pretty, even though I never really had the opportunity/the guts to do so.

I've realized that this memoriam has gotten slightly awkward, but unfortunately it's the best I can do. I don't care how well I knew her; I miss her, and we all have to admit it: Ms. Snider was right (Points at Katie Zerbst).

My prayers go out to the mourning Schack family and the recovering Brown family. I hope Larisa makes a full physical recovery, but I know she will never be the same after this experience. Nobody would."






Rest In Peace, Elizabeth Irene Schack- June 4, 2014.

Dude, there's no way this wouldn't put a damper on your life. It's a huge event, regardless of how much you personally knew the girl.

My whole life that I can remember, I've never lost anyone close or even remotely close to me. All in the last year or so however, two family members and three other semi-close friends died, and it was a huge change for me. They were either diagnosed and deteriorating over the course of a few months and the death almost expected, or waking up one day and being completely caught off guard. Honestly, I felt nothing. The first death made me cry everywhere I went, and it wasn't even that close of a friend - just the father of someone who I played basketball with (but he was pretty tall too, so we had an unspoken bond). When my two close family members died, of course I cried, but not nearly to the extent as the first person. It didn't feel real, and there were many times where I would sit and (cliche as it is) wonder when I would wake up from the dream. It was sad, but no matter how much I forced myself to I could not feel sadness after the first few days.

But, and I've been saying this a lot recently, these last two years I feel as if I have changed the most. Maybe it was because of this, but I'm definitely different. I've become a huge crybaby and I cry all the time now, even at happy things. Every little thing in everyday life gets me so emotional and into a deep thought because it's just so amazing. I can't remember any time in the last year where I was genuinely angry or hateful towards another person, and even the girls in high school flaunting themselves or whining about homework made me smile. I don't know if it's just a coincidence or that I'm noticing it more, but a lot of great things happen to me that I never imagined would. I dropped the "cool girl" act and allowed myself to feel, and I have honestly never been happier with myself and general life.

tl;dr, You can decide on how this affects you. You can sit in a dark room and wallow in the thought of one day being dead and the world having no memory of you, or that tomorrow could be your last. Or, take it as a learning experience. Find something that you really enjoy doing and that makes you view the world differently, like that LotR quote. I'm not expecting you to force yourself to get over something like this right away, but don't let yourself stay in that dampered mood forever.

What why is this a big deal for people
there are plenty of things you don't tell anyone anyway for no big reason.

For some reason labeling things "secret" just makes people want to tell that much more.  Just don't tell anyone, write it down in a letter then burn the letter, burn the ashes, put the pieces in an envelope, burn the envelope, put it in a box and mail it to yourself, then when it arrives, SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER! *cue evil laugh*

I quit them a over a year ago. I hadn't found out about this site yet, and lost interest after about 4-5 years. I picked it up again and find it fun, instead of a chore. I just don't practice enough. But when I do, I play for over an hour.

And, back on topic, today I went fishing with my father and younger brother. I had the incredible skill and luck to accidently cast it onto a bridge 4 feet higher than me right before a car ran across it.

Double post, but one of my friends' house literally exploded. No one was home at 5 in the morning at least, and the blast woke up a neighbor 2 miles away. Something happened to a propane tank in the garage, but no one's quite certain why. And it was a NICE house. Too bad.....  :(
And nothing was left when the firetrucks came, partially because of the mile-long, windy driveway. :( :(

Actually, I quit piano lessons after ~7 years and went a few on my own. I feel like that was the time when I improved the most, and the majority of my pieces were songs from here, other video game music sites, or random anime songs found on youtube. I eventually went back to lessons but thats just because I have terrible technique and know next to nothing about theory...

Basically you improve when you work hard, and finding a difficult piece from here that i actually knew and wanted to play was enough motivation for me to essentially double my playing skills

Talk about bad presents) I'll only be able to see and talk to him on saturdays, because he's in that hospital from monday to friday and he'll be packing his stuff and leaving again on sunday (maybe I can talk to him on some chat or stuff that day though).
I hope I won't miss him too much ;_; He helped me so much in the past, although he (seemingly) needs help himself.

I just spent 2 hours working on a song today, and when I tried to plug in the midi keyboard, it froze, like it has in the past (but only when I unplug it). So I lost that part. But then I did a little, plugged in the midi keyboard, and then saved. So then, when it crashed (after a few attempts to get the keyboard and finale to sync), and I restarted, the file had been corrupted. I opened the backup (from before I made the changes earlier today) and tried to save it as a .mus, but it said I couldn't rename it and I couldn't replace the other file because it was open in another program (it wasn't) so I closed finale, deleted the corrupted .mus file, and go to look for the .bak file.....And it's not there. I even restored my entire recycle bin, but to no avail. I lost everything I had done for that song (about 3/4 done with Wicked Flight). I think I'll take a break from arranging for a bit..........................  :(

I've mentioned this before, but Finale handles files very poorly. It imports files instead of reading them, and then when saving, it will delete the original and create a new one. Basically, there's quite a bit of room for error when it comes to saving, so (though this should go without being said) save frequently and try to make backups or something early on.

Then I get there and I'm thinking 'Why is the teacher showing a video we've still got like 5 minutes 'till class starts.' And then it hit me. I am a dip shit.

I'm hoping I'll get brownie points for showing up even though I missed over half the class. Doubt it though.

I'm bummed though because I have a bad habit of skipping class and I'm trying to do better about it this semester. Now I'm skipping on accident! :(

At first I was planning on suggesting motivating the man by acquiring an untraceable gun through a 3D-printer and shooting his parents and the dog, then hiding the gun parts inside the dog's stomach. The police would cremate the dog without ever looking inside, destroying any evidence they could have against you. Then threaten that the same thing will happen to him unless he starts moving his ass, since you know? He. Can't. Prove. Shit.
I wanted to post this, but then decided that it's too good of a plan to be wasted on motivating some Canadian loser. I'll save it for my future spouse for that NYC place you might remember me talking about earlier. I bet you thought I was kidding.

Our parents had to sign a contract stating that, since we are students, they will have to pay for us if for some reason we can't afford to pay our rent. I'm not sure it still applies to him as he is not a student. There's also the fact that my husband is being stupid and he's always trying to defend our roommate and it pisses me the fuck out.

Quote from: Roz~ on September 01, 2014, 08:03:41 AM^Whoa I would've failed most of my classes if we had a similar policy here.

Also my roommate is a fucking idiot. Got all flustered 'cause his boss decided to have cameras installed at his workplace, so he couldn't spend his shift playing video games or watching anime/tv series anymore. He decided that was a good reason enough to quit his job. Then he said he might want to go back to school, so he took the Translation Major's entrance exam, but he failed. So now all I get to hear is how his life sucks 'cause he has no job and didn't make it to university. All he does is smoke pot, get drunk and play video games all day. He's not even trying to find a job, and he told us he doesn't want his parents to know. He's 29. I'm stuck living with this guy for a year. u_u

The lesson is, never have guy roommates D: I think deadbeat girls are easier to get rid of...

Friends have told me of horror story female roommates that would leave piles of dirty dishes, not know how to use a dishwasher, and have a tower of dirty clothes extending from the floor up onto the bed

and the smells o lawdy

So, at least personal anecdotally not justttt guys that are bad, but probably the popular opinion is at least that guys are more likely to be baddies.

Actually I've found that popular opinion is that women are nightmares to room with more than men. Men tend to be cleaner with their personal spaces and generally get along better than women do with each other.

That's not to so both cannot be terrible people. Everyone is terrible.

Except me. Maestro.

XDDDDD lol what

Maybe it also depends on the other person? I've had one territorial one, one that was plain crazy and another one obsessed with her weight to name a few. At least when I'm roommates with another girl, I know how to deal with these problems. A mutual solution (for both sides) if they really can't stand each other, would be to ignore each other...that's not really something I see guys ending up doing -.-

There was a huge difference in air quality in the hallways DDDDD: Apparently that wasn't a problem to the guys that lived there or visited...also they tend to be worse at sneaking around and being low key >_> It kind of encourages them to do more annoying things...

Whenever someone tries to hug you, do what I do. Always go for insies on the hug, it makes it super awkward for them and you assert control over the hug in doing so.

So had an interview scheduled at this place called The Tea & Spice Exchange today. And working at a tea store would be fucking awesome. Too bad I had to miss it because of all the fucking work I have piled on me right now. I have a Bio exam tomorrow and a Bio paper due Tuesday, but my professor's requiring us to get it checked by the on-campus writing center, which isn't open weekends, so I have to have the paper done by early Friday at latest. So it's basically complete bullshit. And there was no way I could start working on it until yesterday, because we needed to complete the lab to get the data needed to write it. Then I have a college entrance paper to write for USF, a brief research paper due for chem and a chem test Tuesday. Oh and lab write-ups for my chem and physics labs.

And on top of that, my bank account is almost empty and I really need the money. FACK.

Don't have time for a job, yet I desperately need one because I only have 16 dollars. And I have a bio exam today, which I'm not prepared for because I've spent all my time working on a paper for bio, which is on a completely different topic. And I was late to my chem lab today and got kicked out as soon as I walked in the door, because getting kicked out for being 5 minutes late when you've been a perfect student the whole god damn semester is 100% reasonable. Fuck, at this point I might just switch to a history major, coast through college because history is easy as shit, and become that one cool history professor at some university.

In her defense, we can get in big trouble if we sell to someone who then gives it to minors.

When I had to watch a video about selling alcohol, it gave this crazy scenario that went something like this:

If John buys alcohol legally and then takes it to a party where Shaniquanaynay drinks some of the alcohol and gets alcohol poisoning, it can be traced back to the cashier that sold the alcohol and they will get in trouble.

Yeah, but it's only against the law to sell to minors. Anything else is determined by the individual store's policy.

Also, I believe the the penalty would be on the individual who supplied the minors with alcohol. If you sell it to someone of age then that person is not you, but the purchaser. Interesting fun fact: If you card someone who provides a fake ID that appears legitimate and you sell to them, they are committing the offense, not you.

stuff

Sec. 106.03. SALE TO MINORS

(a) A person commits an offense if with criminal negligence he sells an alcoholic beverage to a minor.
(b) A person who sells a minor an alcoholic beverage does not commit an offense if the minor falsely represents himself to be 21 years old or older by displaying an apparently valid proof of identification that contains a physical description and photograph consistent with the minor's appearance, purports to establish that the minor is 21 years of age or older, and was issued by a governmental agency. The proof of identification may include a driver's license or identification card issued by the Department of Public Safety, a passport, or a military identification card.

Sec. 106.07. MISREPRESENTATION OF AGE BY A MINOR

(a) A minor commits an offense if he falsely states that he is 21 years of age or older or presents any document that indicates he is 21 years of age or older to a person engaged in selling or serving alcoholic beverages.
[close]

I was able to provide proof that it was perfectly legal for me to purchase the beverage (singular, btw). It was impossible for anyone to prove or disprove what I would do with it, really.

But most businesses are well within their right to withhold sale on anything to anyone for any reason. If the seller had suspected that you were going to give alcohol to minors they were perfectly in their right to not sell you the alcohol, regardless of your actual intentions.

Yes, which is why I said this:

Quote from: Olimar12345 on October 07, 2014, 11:13:57 PMAnything else is determined by the individual store's policy.

The point of my post was to comment on how it was impossible to prove or disprove my intentions. She lied when she said she had definitive proof leaning one way or the other, and was quite frankly rude about the whole ordeal.

Quote from: ETFROXX on October 07, 2014, 10:09:18 PMIn her defense, we can get in big trouble if we sell to someone who then gives it to minors.

When I had to watch a video about selling alcohol, it gave this crazy scenario that went something like this:

If John buys alcohol legally and then takes it to a party where Shaniquanaynay drinks some of the alcohol and gets alcohol poisoning, it can be traced back to the cashier that sold the alcohol and they will get in trouble.
I saw that video
I'm like "people I'm only 16 I don't have to deal with this trash"
And seriously getting fired for a minor getting drunk and nearly killed when you sold the alcohol to like a 25 year old is really sad.

The way phone contracts are working nowadays is that there aren't 2 year contracts anymore where you get a discounted phone with a service agreement. Now service providers are doing stupid monthly payment plans on new phones that end up costing you about half the phone's original cost.(I just got a Galaxy s4 mini, a $350.00 phone and over the next 12 months I'll be paying about $17.00/mo for it). So now I pay the additional fee for the phone on top all the regular expenses. The only upside is if you're one of those ass clowns who requires a brand new phone every year, you probably end up paying less.

Most can be summed up in the various reviews, but it's a 5.5" so the same size profile as Galaxy Note 3/4 or LG G3.  Camera isn't the best around, but it does a good job.  The company has had some rough patches with earlier firmwares I've heard, but at this point there really aren't any major bugs left.

$350 unlocked before shipping, though I hear that once it finally gets to Canadia it ends up being like 400.  If you want cheap you should probably be looking at a midrange like Moto G.  OPO is basically the cheapest high end phone you can get.

Orrrr it's the fact that that is how you buy the phone. You can only buy one if you're sent an invite by someone who's already bought one. Which is kind of a silly concept, but it gives the brand that same sort of "exclusive" thing that Mac users seem to get off on.

Also they made more of a fancy dinner Saturday, and while they were making food I swear to god there were at least five flies walking on the food. My husband and his sister moved out because of that. Also they're super loud and can't speak at normal volume, and they never leave me alone (especially the 7 y/o, she doesn't understand what fuck off means).

I highly recommend just looking out for the sales on Canon's Refurbished store.  Not only are the refurbs already super cheap, but sometimes you'll get like 20% off or something crazy.  They all come in new condition with warranty, so I personally don't see any reason to not buy refurb over new retail package unless you're OCD about having everything super fancy shrinkwrap new.

With Black Friday deals coming up, normal stores might have special deals going on... especially since it's more than a year after the 70D's release.

I am officially having the worst day ever.

We leave our rent on the bottom of the backdoor for our landlord to pick up. Well, it was gone. I don't know if it blew away or was stolen but it's gone. There was $540 in cash and $360 in checks. None of my roommates have money to repay that rent. I had to call my bank and stop my check just in case someone tried to cash it.

OH. AND. THEN MY FUCKING WINDOW WENT OUT OF PLACE AND BROKE. INTO PIECES.

WHAT NEXT UNIVERSE. WHAT'S FUCKING NEXT.

Nope. That's like saying that people who torrent from piratebay aren't breaking the law, because they're not getting paid for the files that they upload. They are still aiding others in illegally acquiring licensed content, whether or not they benefit from it (aside from receiving the ability to reciprocally download in the process). The fact is, this is licensed music, to which we do not have arrangement rights. If video game companies or the composers who work for them (the arrangement rights, depending on the contract, can belong to one or both of these entities) wanted to start selling piano arrangements of their music (and some already do!), they have every right to prosecute for our illegal usage of their property. The only reason that they don't is either that they are unaware, or choose not to. The latter is generally more likely, both because it is complicated and costly to pursue a multi-national website like this, and because they don't really give a fuck. The amount of actual loss in revenue that occurs because of our site is fairly minimal, and certainly not worth the legal costs, nor the bad publicity associated with prosecuting minor intellectual theft. I also like to think that the composers and publishers view our arrangements as an act of appreciation toward their work, so that they don't even have motive to prosecute us based on principle.

TL;DR, what we do is very definitively illegal, as we do not have arranger rights. It's like underage college drinking; a lot of people do it with no problems, and it can be good fun as long as nothing gets too out of hand, but if by some horrible luck and/or decision-making we actually came into a confrontation with the law, it would definitely not be on our side. And since we have no rights to these arrangements, we certainly have no legal standing to have anything more than an informal confrontation with those who steal them.

There is no "Mechanical License" for creating new arrangements and selling the sheet music.

See, the only two things that this confirms are that A: it is legal to CREATE the arrangement, and B: that it is illegal to profit from it. It does not address free circulation of those arrangements, which is (obviously) what we do.

If you buy software legally, but then put it up on a torrent website for others to obtain freely, then you are still breaking the law, the principle being that the original developer is not profiting from the distribution of that product, or a similar product. Similarly, the composers and/or publishers have the right to make money by distributing arrangements of their own pieces. Sure, they might not actually do or even want to do this, and your arrangement will likely differ from one that they would produce, but it's still their right to prevent others from circulating any arrangement, under the pretext that it is unlawful competition. So, whether or not Nintendo has actually released a piano songbook for a game, our freely available arrangements are still inhibiting their ability to do so profitably. Like a patent holder, they are allowed to sit on these arrangement rights without actually utilizing them as much as they please.

I've had copyright lawyers come in as guest lecturers before, and this is essentially the answer that they've given me when I ask afterward about a situation like ours.

Post by: Dudeman on November 08, 2014, 07:36:33 PM
While Fierce makes a valid point, it's important to remember that it all points back to profits. A pirater takes an original product which is not theirs, makes NO changes to it, maybe credits the original creator, and then either sells it for their own profit or posts it for free download. Either way, the original creators are not receiving any profit from a product which is clearly theirs with no changes made to it.

We, on the other hand, take video game music, which is not ours (and which, on its own, is controversial in terms of copyright), make an arrangement of said piece (thus making it not exactly what the creator made and simultaneously an original "product"), give explicit credit to the creators, and then post it for free download and print without any sort of payment. It's comparable to the thousands of people who do covers or remixes of video game pieces (like OCRemix and ZREO, apart from individual artists) and then provide them as free downloads while also crediting the original game and creator. As for people who gain ad revenue from said pieces OR make YouTube videos of said pieces, that's a different argument.

I really don't see how we're profiting from this/breaking copyright law.

This ste falls under a legal gray area with fair use laws. At any rate Jamaha would get a cease and desist before any major legal action was taken by any of the publishers who are the ones who woukd typically hold the copyrights to the music, not the composers themselves.

Have you seen the kind of shit Disney gets away with? How about the removal of Dennis Oppenheim's sculpture featuring Disney characters (from what I understand was private property)? Granted, this was a commission. Technically he profited from their IP! But the concept is the same; he didn't actually cost them any revenue, yet they still succeeded in its removal. Disney took legal action despite their lack of presence in a "slightly Disney-related sculpting" business. They are (by what I will admit is a ridiculous facet of our copyright law) allowed to do this. The fine line between this and things like online listicles featuring Disney characters (which generate money for the uploader using ads, USING THE SAME IP AS DENNIS OPPENHEIM) would be very arbitrary, if it actually existed. The reason that Disney takes no action is, essentially,
Quote from: FireArrow on November 08, 2014, 07:14:17 PMjust the companies not caring.
It'd be foolish for them, both in terms of legal fees and in terms of popularity, to attack Buzzfeed every time they publish a new series of gifs about Frozen. Are these gifs somehow further removed from the source material than was Daniel Oppenheim's sculpture? No. No, they aren't, they are literally the source material put into a different format. Companies have legal precedent to pursue these things, but they don't, because they would have to pay outstanding legal fees, and all they'd really get in return would be a publicity nightmare.

Quote from: Dudeman on November 08, 2014, 07:36:33 PMI really don't see how we're profiting from this/breaking copyright law.

We aren't. But the composers/publishers are potentially losing profit (by Disney logic, anyways). Again, arranging rights are a thing. Not "making money off of arranging" rights, just arranging rights. Let's just pretend for a moment that our arrangements are something more than simplified transcriptions. Even if they can truly be considered arrangements, so can piano songbooks released by the actual publishers (which, once again, do exist). Even if our arrangements differ significantly from theirs, they are still potentially losing revenue from the availability of a free alternative based on their work. Does an official songbook exist for each and every game we post sheets for? No. Is anybody actually losing any amount of revenue worth risking legal fees and popularity loss over? No, of course not. But the point is, they have legal precedent to pursue us anyways. They just choose not to.

Quote from: MaestroUGC on November 08, 2014, 08:26:12 PMThis ste falls under a legal gray area with fair use laws. At any rate Jamaha would get a cease and desist before any major legal action was taken by any of the publishers who are the ones who woukd typically hold the copyrights to the music, not the composers themselves.

No yeah, the chances that significant legal action, let alone action harmful to anything but the existence of this site/certain sheets, are super negligible. Because companies like Nintendo don't give two fucks. And yeah, it's typically the publishers, but ownership of the arranging rights can sometimes vary based on individual contracts.

The DL is that we will continue to do what we do until some rando Nintendo lawyer goes "hey those guys r not gud" and throws a C&D at us.  This seems highly unlikely given that piano arrangement blogs/sites/archives/whatever have existed for a very long time with no issues, and Nintendo seems to be actually trying to do better in their public outreach.

So, we probably gud and that's that

Except to call heterosexuality "default" as MLF did isn't so much a witty joke as it is a particularly offensive, oft-repeated bit of religious dogma that I'm 99.9% sure he actually believes. Also, the key phrase is "as far as I know". Trust me, there are quite a few of them out there.

MLF. You cannot troll one day and expect me not to take into account your likelihood of seriousness the next. My "99.9% certainty" was merely meant to address that. Calling it offensive and oft-repeated isn't an attack on your religion; I am stating an observable fact. The fact is, it offends a great many people, and is frequently repeated/emphasized by politically outspoken Christians. Meanwhile, the very claim you made that everybody is heterosexual by "default" is NOT objectively true, according to the evidence we have seen thus far. We have no evidence to suggest that homosexuality is a choice, which is what your "default" statement implies. And, while I am not attacking your beliefs, merely stating the fact surrounding them, you, by making that claim, are once again belittling and insulting the lifestyles of several people on this forum. I don't know how many times I have to repeat this sentiment:

Well, technically no. There are some interpretations of the bible that are "homo-friendly", but they still generally don't support premarital sex, and are relatively few and far between the "LOOK AT THIS ONE PASSAGE IN LEVITICUS" interpretations that seems to dominate the political scene.

Christianity is COMPLETELY against homosexuality and the fact that Christians are "only" against gay people having marriage rights DOES NOT MAKE IT A MINOR ISSUE. No one should be allowed to use their religion as an excuse to discriminate.

Don't tell me that's not discrimination because they are in favor of denying a group of people rights that all other people have.
It's not an excuse though, that's the problem. The whole concept of marriage according to Catholics is a bond between two people that eventually leads to offspring, obviously which a homosexual couple could not do. I'm not denying there's a shitton of exceptions and gray areas (infertile couples, couples that never plan to have children anyway) but that's just the "law". The way it's supposed to be, the church is not against the gays themselves but sees the basic biology being held up against an ancient "definition". It's been generalized and blown out of proportion though. Imo the way things are going now it'll be legalized pretty soon, but again this is within the church. Government is a completely different issue and basing marriage laws on a religion is complete bullshit and is most definitely discrimination

I promise I'm done because I don't even recognize myself as a true catholic despite going to catholic schools for literally my whole life

But again, it's not just marriage. They're against premarital sex (which, seeing as they don't recognize gay marriage, would mean all sex for homosexuals), and there's still that one passage in Leviticus that people seem to love bringing up. Sure, some interpretations focus on the marital aspect and ignore the rest, but that seems a very half-assed, PR-oriented compromise, as well as fairly uncommon within the faith itself.

As a Catholic and being taught stuff in the Church, we aren't against homosexuality (or anything that suggests heteronormativity -- that heterosexuality is right and everything else is wrong), we are taught to not act on the feelings (e.g. premarital sex, etc) as everyone is taught.

It's in the nature in being a good Christian to love everyone, no matter what paths they have come from, whether it be race, other religion, sexual orientation, gender, etc.. It's just that people take things too seriously. And the fact many of them think it's a choice. It's not like many of us choose our sexual orientation, it just happens to be what we're born with and we can choose to accept it or not (I know I have).

In the eyes of the Church, marriage is a sacrament that is something that is not taken into likely (Vegas weddings come to mind and the movie What Happens in Vegas "Gay people aren't destroying the sanctity of marriage... you people (drunken Vegas marriages) are) and to produce offspring (as Bubbles has written). In terms of rights (Joint tax returns, insurance benefits, death benefits, etc...), I don't see the issue, but if a church refuses to accept it, then so be it... that's why we have separation of Church and State (though sometimes, I don't think that's the case).

I promise during my Presidency to abolish all weather from the United States of America and all of its territories. We will no longer be oppressed by nature and its wild mood swings of hot and cold. It shall then be set to be a calm, partly cloudy, 70º days and nights all year round, except for gentle snow between November 1st and January 15th. There will also be regularly scheduled rain across the country to guard against drought.

This is my promise to you.

Quote from: maelstrom. on April 07, 2014, 06:55:14 PMOk, new to the arranging business, but I would like to get started. I downloaded finale 2012 notepad, but it is incredibly unintuitive. I also have guitartux, which is a better program and can create guitar tabs from a MIDI file, along with many more editing options. However, it does not have the option for a keyboard input for the notes. Any other programs to suggest? Is transcribe! and good for an assistance program? It can be easily set to play only a portion of a piece and can suggest notes. Obviously, since I am new at this, I'm not going to go out and buy Finale 2014 or whatever, but might do the trial just because. So, any suggestions? I have a few pieces "figured out" but haven't taken the time to write them down. I am very intrested in any sort of keyboard interface possible.

I'm just a big ball of nerves concerning my Czech visa application, right now. I haven't said anything about my studying abroad in Prague on here except for the fact that I'm going, so here's a quick summary:
-I'm supposed to leave to go there on January 23rd
-Applying for a Czech visa is the most complicated process out of all visa applications for countries that my school has campuses in.
-While the visa application typically takes 4-6 weeks to process, my school has also seen it take 8 weeks for some people before, and the technical maximum according to the Czech consulate is 90 days.
-I just turned in the application yesterday (59 days, i.e. 8 weeks and 3 days, before my departure date).

While I quadruple-Czeched (get it) my application, and made sure I had all required documents and notarizations, I'm still so worried that a minor error on my application will set back the process and leave me thoroughly fucked. My school has confirmed that if I do not arrive on the date I'm supposed to, then I will be removed from the program, which will kinda screw over a lot for me (particularly my living arrangements, class schedule, and travel plans). And the worst part is, I likely won't be able to stop worrying about this until the very last minute. Like, it's kind of reassuring that a few people still haven't turned theirs in, but that doesn't make my situation any less uncertain.

Yeah, it seems like the less popular a site is for the average American tourist, the more difficult the immigration process is. Like, my friends going to Madrid, London, Paris, basically just had to upload their information and the school took care of the rest. As for my application, I'm just surprised I didn't have to supplement it with the blood of a lamb/virgin/virgin lamb.

Also holy SHIT did I discover my drinking limit tonight. I briefly mentioned to my friends during dinner how I'd never gotten sick from drinking before, and they're like OH HO HO WE ARE CHANGING THIS BEFORE YOU GO TO PRAGUE. And to be fair, it's probably good that I discovered my limits before going to a country where there are virtually no legal restrictions on my drinking. I still feel like shit, though.

Also, this was a particularly bad idea when I'm already sick.

So a few days ago, my clavical randomly started popping out at the SC joint. While uncomfortable, it was completely painless so I was like whatever, maybe it'll go away.

Anyways, I did some research tonight and found out it's most likely "Spontaneous Sternoclavicular Subluxation." It doesn't pose any other threat to my health, but it's permanent and the only treatment is physical therapy. Fuck, there goes playing tennis.

I'm hoping I'll go to the doctor and they'll be like "lol self diagnosis is stupid ur fine."

i remember my mom was looking up her symptoms when she was sick once (which she shouldn't have needed to in the first place cuz she's a nurse) and it said that she had cancer. She went to the doctor and they said it was just a stomach bug or something.

Then she actually ended up having cancer...

Ok bad example. She's okay now though!

Dude, southern california needs some goddamn mass transit. Driving to LAX from my house in the wee hours of the morning (i.e. very little traffic) takes about 40 minutes. Last time I drove back from LAX to my house, at around 8 pm, took about 3 hours. I feel your pain.

I grew up in LA traffic. I'm used to that and usually knew a way to get around it.

It once took me 8 hours to drive from SLO to Orange County. LAX is about 45 minutes from my house if I leave at 6 AM. The 405 can be hell.

But in my case, there were 4 accidents on my way home today. Bay Area drivers are worse, mainly because I don't think many of them have any regard for their surroundings. There are also certain people that drive horribly, mainly because they are not in their home country where driving is much different.

I just wasn't expecting this at all.

If you really think your major is any harder than music I don't know what to tell you bro but invalidating someone's complaint based on the fact that you think you have it harder (and trust me, there is a LOT that goes into being a liberal arts major that you aren't taking into account) is gross, uninformed, and really pretty offensive.

I can attest that there are some liberal arts majors that are really tough, even when they may not necessarily be "difficult".

For my History Minor, I had to take a course that was 5 credits (meaning we met for 5 hours in a week), but then we had research discussions and papers upon papers. Though thoroughly enjoyable, it's difficult because of all the time and work I put into the class. I know it's not the same, but it's similar.

That being said, I wish all the luck to liberal arts majors looking for jobs out of college. You probably won't get one [easily].

This is the part where I mention my 6hrs of practice a day on top of classes, written work and other rehearsals/gigs etc (I didn't learn Berio's Sequenza V by being lazy  :P)

Not that I'm complaining; I wouldn't dream of it. I love what I do and I wouldn't dream of doing anything else. But the cynicism is well justified. In most things you get out what you put in but this is even more so with music. I've lost count of the number of people who just coast through music, looking for an easy ride and it does hurt to see how they bring down the standards of those around them and the ensembles in which they take part.

Kefka i've been trying to tell you for the last 20 minutes that we have to do stuff pretty similar to what you do, on top of all the extra shit that's required of a music major. Though it's only my first semester, I had my psychology and speech classes that gave a test at least once a week, a paper every other, along with outside research projects in both. That's not even including study time and labs. Compound that with the hours of practice I have to do for violin, piano, and voice lessons, the lessons themselves, ensemble rehearsals, performance exams, final exams, piano proficiency, and you have a pretty tough schedule. That's just my first semester. Next year I have to take a calc class, an organic chem class, education major-related classes, and all that shit I just listed plus more music.

All I'm saying is while some of it may not be as "difficult" as you say it is, but I'd appreciate if you didn't pass judgement on my field of study without knowing what actually goes into it.

Can we all stop with the pissing contest, please?

It was pretty silly of SFK to talk shit about music majors on a website largely populated by them, but the response is kind of hypocritical. No matter what your area of study, you get out of education what you put into it. The stigma comes from the fact that subjects with more codified information (i.e. sciences and such) tend to be much more grade-centric, because it's easier to evaluate students' knowledge. Grading for music classes (at least, in my experience) tends to be slightly more lenient because of this, but that doesn't mean we don't have to spend nearly as much time working inside and outside of our official schedule. The truth is, the "harder" major is determined by several factors (school, program, professors, individual tendencies), but even if we count them all up to figure out who has the shittiest workload, it doesn't fucking matter. Not in the slightest.

We have all gone to school to learn; we've passed that point in life where all that matters is our GPA, or how we size up to students in other majors with whom we will share no competition whatsoever! Those who work harder in their respective fields are more likely to succeed in those fields. And that is all that fucking matters.

Hmm well I have an art minor so then I can say a few things. The material I had to learn for my science major was a lot more challenging. But I spent nearly the same amount of time for each subject because art is really time consuming. But I spent far less time preparing for art class than science or math.

I remember writing a paper on an artist where there was nearly no papers on, so I had to be the art historian and literally do all the work on the analyzing the symbols and stuff. It took 3 days to write it.

It's, uh, kinda a long (and slightly embarrassing) story. I guess I more of fell into it but that's all I'm going to say

When I was in like 1st grade, I was taking the attendance sheet to the office (back when that was a thing) and I was still in that stage where I fucking ran everywhere

And for some reason I was closing my eyes, or not paying attention, or something

And I ran straight into this pillar with rough sides and I started bleeding like crazy from my forehead

Big band concert last night
Orchestra tonight (final program: October, The Planets (sans mercury))
My chops are so dead from last night, I'm fucked
Like, I had this part down so well, but just because of the timing of my concerts, I'm now sure to fuck up the few times where first trombone is exposed

No, you play the whole suite or none at all. It loses its grander cohesion by cutting movements.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: FierceDeity on December 10, 2014, 06:53:11 PM
Yeah, we cut it kinda close to the concert, because we ended up not having enough rehearsal time to work it out with the strings (it's a community orchestra). I was pretty bummed, too, but seeing as I don't even play on that one, I can't really judge too much. Technically speaking (apart from range near the end of Uranus), none of the trombone 1 part was really that difficult.

But I actually had one of my best run-throughs of the piece tonight, despite my dead chops! Huzzah!

Post by: FierceDeity on December 10, 2014, 07:11:25 PM
That's one of my favorite sections, too. I guess I shouldn't have hoped too much of a community orchestra :/

At least we did the two that everyone knows, though (Mars/Jupiter), as well as my personal favorite, Uranus (in before butt jokes).

Venus was kind of a mess though; bunch of missed/early entrances, as well as cracks in the horn part. Which, on the one hand, I totally understand, but on the other hand gahhhh it's supposed to be so pretty

At least I don't play on that movement so nobody can possibly blame me

^^ this so much. My final project for this theory class was a form/harmonic analysis assignment for two sonatas, and we were supposed to collaborate on each with a partner. I just said fuck it and did both because my partner didn't really know what he was doing, which ended up being a really good idea because we were supposed to meet before class to go over it, and he slept through both that and the actual class.

Like, what is this, fucking high school? We should know how to do this by ourselves at this point, that's the point of the goddamn class. It was especially frustrating because I wasn't there the day people chose partners, so the next class I had to awkwardly raise my hand when she asked if anyone still didn't have one.

Probably because group projects means fewer things to read and grade. They are kind of pointless but I also remember group projects where no one knows what's going on and we just camp outside the professor's office.

Yeah that's why she's doing it actually. She was pretty happy when she learned she only had 6 projects to grade. The fun thing is I don't even need that class to graduate. I was gonna do a minor, and I needed to take that particular class for it, but turns out I hate it so I don't wanna finish my minor. So I don't even need a decent grade. But since this is a group project I kinda feel bad for my other team members.

Got fired from my job. Didn't show up for work Sunday because my brain was so overloaded by a million different things that I completely forgot I was scheduled. Didn't think they fire a hard working employee with a perfect attendance over one mistake. To be fair, it was a pretty big one, but still it was my first and only fuck up. On top of that, neither I nor the guy I was supposed to be getting an apartment with have a job, so no more apartment. On top of that, USF doesn't have enough dorms for their incoming students, and in-state transfer students are the lowest priority on their waiting list so I currently don't know where the fuck I'm gonna live in a month.

In certain states (like Georgia), federal minimum wage for those that could make tips is $2.13 (or close to it), otherwise it's $5.15 in Georgia.

That could be the case.

There are some states that pay the same wage regardless of tips or not (e.g. California -- which is why I don't tip any more than 10%)

I have to go through all the sales data of a subsidiary (like 20,000 lines in excel) and match each ZIP code to a county in NY, and then calculate how much this subsidiary made in those counties and then take that percentage against all of NY State income and calculate some tax that will end up being about $200 (anything under $1000 we just pass over for being too small, but since the state of NY sends us "adjustment notices" every year, we have to make sure it is correct to avoid some massive penalty+interest).

Thank God the NY tax law is changing for 2015 and on!!! (FINALLY!)

I do love state tax though!! It's fun!

Maybe.

I just like it because every state is slightly different (mainly because I think each state is like that professor in college that thinks their class is the only class you're taking) -- they all just want to be different from the others (Pennsylvania is the big culprit with this really, really wacky font that is similar to the routing/account numbers on checks)

I am seriously contemplating on switching from Federal Tax to State Tax

So it's basically going to be impossible for me to live at or near USF this semester, which means I get to commute there 3 days a week. Yayyy. And because classes are almost all filled up at USF, I get to take half of my classes at the local college I'd supposedly graduated from. On top of that, I got to spend the rest of my last paycheck on a new hard drive because my old decided it was no longer meant for this cold, unforgiving world and died. And now I have no monies left for buying people Christmas gifts.

Finally done with finals! Too bad moving out is about 1000x more stressful for me. I'm in the shuttle bus now, but I almost missed it because I was packing and cleaning up to the last minute. But I made it! And now I can't stop worrying that maybe I forgot something, or that the person who's sorting my stuff won't be able to fit it all (because I ended up having to leave more stuff than I expected), or that they'll feel obligated to take it all and it'll be an unnecessary burden on them. And I didn't sleep last night (partially so I'd have time to pack, partially so I wouldn't sleep through my flight), so I'm almost guaranteed to be sick when I get home, as usual. Not to mention, I made some REALLY good friends this semester (also grew to further love my roommate/suitemates)! But now we're all on break, then studying abroad in different countries, then on break again. So aside from the hopeful visit to Paris/Madrid from Prague, I won't get to see any of them until fall. (I know this is kind of a good problem to have, but I'm still in hyper anxiety mode, so I'm currently pretty upset about it when it's all compounded.)

Heyyyy I just got mine out.  Well if it's starting to bug you def get them out asap.  Apparently since I got mine out early enough my recovery has been super easy compared to what it could have been.  The worst of it now is the fact that I have a bunch of big holes in my mouth that I have to deal with.

But omg HK, I am jelly I wanna go there and eat food and see things and eeeeeeee ~.~

Same thing here. After (and during) a sports practice I got what I called "jelly legs", which basically meant my legs couldn't support themselves. I couldn't use the muscles in my thighs for the next four days without pain lol. Epsom salt baths are also supposed to help a lot, and one of my friends swears by them

But if that just happened randomly...yeah go get that checked out. Your legs aren't supposed to just stop working

People develop new allergies all the time. Most allergies develop long after you're born, actually. Like this is the first year I felt any adverse effects from pollen.

A great way to counteract that is to find someplace that sells local honey.

Put some in your tea a week before you normally get allergies and you won't get them. It's along the same lines as a vaccine.

Nah, not that at all. Playing live is what gets me. Plus, there's very few songs that I can play through without messing up. I don't know the patterns and groupings of scales or whatever in order to recover from mistakes (see: improvising) so when I mess up its pretty obvious. So yeah recording is pretty difficult too

I just found out that Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies is a download-only title. That really ticks me off. I was okay with the trilogy being download only, because I saw it similar to virtual console, but on the whole, I can't stand downloading games. I prefer retail.

I'm not debating the ethics of download vs. Retail, it's obvious that downloading games is easier and altogether simpler than carrying around multiple game cards, but that's just it - losing games is easy.

Lots of people worry that they'll lose their games if they carry them around all the time, which is of course, possible, but it's also possible to only lose just a limited number of games by some accident, etc. With downloaded games, they're all saved to the system (or SD card), which, should anything happen to it (or them), you've lost everything. Personally, if given the choice, I'd rather misplace or lose just a couple of games rather than have my entire library gone due to damage or system disorder.

Now, this is all subjective I realize, but in order for the ace attorney trilogy to even fit on my 3ds, I had to make a lot of tough decisions as to what I should delete from my saved software. I don't want to do that again just to put a game on there that I could have bought in store somewhere (let's be real, the trilogy was a bundle). I'm aware that I could simply buy another sd card, but it's not worth it for me to buy another sd card for just ONE game! As I mentioned previously I don't like downloading games, so there hopefully wouldn't be any need for it otherwise...

Ugh. I just want to play Dual Destinies. Can I just have that, please?

Its already being ordered and has shipped from Amazon and should be here by Saturday. Investigations, too. I'm not ready to play Dual Destinies yet, I'm just taking stock and making sure I'll have it when I am ready. I'm building my collection.

I'd just go with a mindset that you're gonna need the SD card again, Nintendo offered games through download a lot last year. I doubt like they'd change it this year.

Unfortunately, this is not a decision by Nintendo to "encourage the downloading of games" or anything. This is the only way Capcom can afford to publish the games in the United States. The sequel to Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth never even released outside of Japan, so it's something of a blessing that we're even getting the new Ace Attorney releases again. The best thing you could do for Capcom and the continued existence of the series in America would be to download the game, and your options for doing that would be to get a slightly bigger SD card, back up your save data of the trilogy and uninstall it to make room for Dual Destinies, or download the iOS version (which is very good, in HD, and cheaper than the 3DS version if you're into that). It sucks but that's the way it is.

Don't get me wrong, I'd almost always rather have the cartridge myself, especially with a game I love as much as Ace Attorney. But it's just not an option.

FYI, in Japan, all games in the series (including the 3DS trilogy) have a cartridge release :P

When you get software from the 3DS shop it costs the same as the physical game, but you're not paying for packaging/shipping/hardware at all.

This is actually really good advice :D Talking to others first is so important in building relationships and I'm trying to do it more often myself

But a little tip (and I'm being 100% serious here): if you have the habit of unintentionally starting fights or giving off the wrong impression (which is easier to do online than in person), focus on the other person rather than yourself. Even if you don't agree with something they said, don't comment on it or most likely it'll come off as plain rude instead of constructive.

Not all fat people have bad cholesterol.

In fact, skinny people can have bad cholesterol. Half of it is genetic. The other half is based on how much fat you consume.

I weigh more than I should (and have for about 3 years), but I have near perfect cholesterol (and not because I do eat healthily on average 40% of the time). Yay genetics!

Cholesterol usually goes from about 100 mg/dL. (which is the net between your LDL, HDL and triglycerides)

Anything between 100 and 200 is desirable; 200-239 is borderline and anything over 240 is bad

Unless you're talking VLDL, which the normal range is between 5-40 mg/dL

There's absolutely nothing wrong with sarcasm.

And I'd at least partly attribute the lack of arguing to the fact that people are slowly realizing around here that it's completely fruitless (takes two to tango).

I think you misunderstand why people are frustrated with you. It's not because of sarcasm, and it's not because of posting opinions on the internet. From my point of view, it's because I can't even remember more than 5 of your posts that have been relevant or necessary. Somebody can post a lot and still not be spamming, because they can actually have a fucking reason for doing it. Those posts could be actual, meaningful responses to things other people have said, or actual points of interest. But you seem to post for the sake of posting. You seem to make threads for the sake of making threads. Your response when you find a thread the likes of which you were planning to make shouldn't be "Oh no, now I don't get to make this thread!", it should be "Oh good, now I don't have to make this thread, because its purpose is already being served."

And the fact that you've yet to show any real signs of goodwill toward the community is pretty off-putting, as well. You do things that you seem to know will make people (particularly nebbles, it seems) uncomfortable; that you know will irritate people. You made that apology thread, and I had hoped it would be a turning point, but then you kinda went right back to doing a slightly less exaggerated version of what you were doing before. And when you did start this shitposting again, part of me was expecting another apology thread, and already adopting a "boy who cried wolf" mentality for how unbelievable it would be a second time. But even worse was that it never came. That your apology period lasted for such a small amount of time, and then ceased to exist entirely. And this would be almost forgivable if you just didn't realize that there was a problem. But as you point out now, you do. You realize that you're causing a shitload of conflicts, and while you're arbitrarily restricting certain facets of your behavior on here, these seem to be aimed at self-preservation, not at the actual betterment of the community. Not to mention, they're wholly insufficient for either purpose. You've yet to even remotely access the root of the problem, which is your mentality toward the other users. You shouldn't think, "Ugh I can't state any opinions/jokes on here because other people are just too easily offended/irritated." Try instead to think about why they might be offended or irritated by what you do.

Coming alone into a preexisting community isn't an easy thing to do. It really isn't. I didn't exactly have the easiest time of it, myself. But since I joined, NSM, you are definitely the most frustrating newcomer I've encountered, largely because I've convinced myself that you're probably not just a troll (though your impersonation of kingsammer really didn't help you in that regard). Maybe you do have good intentions, and just have a hard time expressing them. Maybe it's just that you're young, and you'll be better once you mature. The truth is, I don't know. With so many other newcomers here, no matter how annoying they may have been, I've been able to get a good idea for myself what they're here to do, and why. For you, I'm still not sure.

You sit there and antagonize us and make us upset with you, then you try to turn it back around on us by doing stuff like this. It seems you haven't reached the point where you realize that people can call you out on your lies and other things, and you certainly haven't learned how to deal with criticisms.

If you feel you need to leave, then fine. I, for one, am not going to stop you. But I at least hope you can come back someday as a more mature person.

Trying to guilt trip us isn't going to tip things in your favor. If you're being called out on bad behavior, you have to sincerely recognize your mistakes, and apologize for them. Apologizing because you got called out and go "i might as well" isn't an actual apology. If people are calling you out on stuff, you need to recognize why they're doing it.

It is what Nintendo does every once in a while to release information about upcomming games. They live stream for a couple hours and stuff then someone puts the video on YouTube. My guess is that we'll get a Majora's Mask release date.

Shadowkirby is an idiot.

He's involved in a musical production back home that practices until midnight every night (this week is hell week), and he doesn't get home until almost 1 am. He texts me saying "[he's] going to die," because waking up to watch the direct (5 AM Alaska time) would dramatically decrease the amount of sleep he gets, because he insists on watching it live because he "lives for them."

I don't know about you guys (because you don't live in Alaska and don't have to wake up at 5 am to watch it), but frankly, I think he's making a stupid decision because it's just going to be posted online directly after it airs. Let's be honest, I couldn't give a shit about his stupid decisions if he didn't complain to me about them first, yet take pride in his actions.

He claims: "It's more of I enjoy living a little, doing fun stuff even if it's not the best decision."

I will never understand his logic. Am I wrong to feel angry about this?

it comes and goes. The coldest months are January-March. Other than that, Minnesota and those states get much colder. However, I can only speak for my area of Alaska. It gets much colder in other parts of the state.

On the topic of shadowkirby, the dingus must not have even tried to set an alarm or anything because he slept through it anyways and then proceeded to rant at me about how the LE Majora's Mask 3DS are already out of stock. So much for being all worked up about it. He moves right on to the next issue.

Word to the wise: don't rant to me about material things. I couldn't care less, really.

Haha. I laugh at your joke.

It's not $2000 every year. That's actually fairly high as of recent years. It was about $1800 this year, but it was only $900 last year. In fact, this year was the first year I actually got to use my PFD (that stands for Permanent Fund Dividend, meaning I'll always get money from the state so long as I remain a citizen), so that's what I'm using for my cash flow instead of a job. It's not my EXCUSE for not having a job - it's only a temporary situation (even though I have no intention of getting a job this semester).

And It's really nice. I really liked the build quality of the original 3DS. The 3DS XL feels a bit cheaper.

And no, SFK, it isn't a bunch of stickers that are cheap. There's a bunch of gold accenting on mine (aside from the Zelda stuff)

I totally couldn't commission a high school artsy kid to draw that on my hypothetical 3DS for 5 bucks.

Except I could.

But I'm really just talking about people who already own a system that go out a shell an extra couple hundred bucks for the exact same system with a silly design on it.

When I try to make myself look sad or look happy, I think sad or happy thoughts, but that doesn't actually change the way I look. However, it does make me feel that way a little more! Fake it till you make it.

So basically, when I'm talking to customers and pretending to be happy, I think happy thoughts and I am able to deal with the pressure of everyone yelling at me better
And when I'm driving, I try to become a little apathetic towards existence so I don't feel as terrified as usual when my brother basically plays smash brothers or sleeps while I'm still learning how to drive, but then I continue to feel apathetic towards existence after the drive ends. oops

also back in theater freshman year is when I discovered feeling a certain way or thinking a certain way doesn't necessarily display emotion, especially not in an expressive way like you need for the stage. The moral of the story is that some people are more expressive than others, that's just how it is.

And a ten year old should really know better than to destroy something like that...if they don't, its worth trying to teach them. Not necessarily by physical force though :P I'd just hide the zelda game and "forget" where it is for a few months, or tell him that its too damaged to work anymore

I think siblings beat each other up over the smallest things sometimes. But hitting them still doesn't guarantee they'll learn from it. Hiding the game works better, I think (hehehe my sisters did this to me all the time when I wouldn't stop playing). If he tries to get your parents involved, tell them *calmly* about how destructive he's being with something you're generous enough to share.

My mom was actually okay with this and in fact this morning she took it away when she caught him trying to steal it.  (of course my mom has it now, which is a completely different problem...)
The thing is, the little parasite goes and takes ALL MY OTHER STUFF- My laptop and my phone (even though I don't care about my phone that much, BUT THE ANNOYING LITTLE THING TOOK MY LAPTOP AS "LEVERAGE".)

Dude. Where are your balls? Your little brother is making you look like a p***y!
I have read people mentioning your photo, when you are supposed to have like a hughe bizeps (never seen the photo...). Use the muscles! Aren't you American anyways? So... Don't you have a gun? :D Gotta teach that guy some respect!
If he keeps that attitude towards others, someone else will eventually beat the s**t out of him, when he gets older. Or is he only behaving like this towards you?

As far as I know he acts arrogant toward everybody and people are constantly getting him angry at school.
I took away his tablet just now and he kicked a hole in my door.
I'd totally enjoy beating him up but if I did he'd throw a tantrum.  I need a brother who wouldn't cry if we actually fought...

If someone beats him up through middle school/high school, all I'm gonna say is "told you so".

We called her and she knows, which is why I was able to take his tablet away.  Anyway, he ran into my room searching for it and I smothered him with a blanket then laid down on him.  (When you lay down on him, he starts to scratch your hands.  If you hold down his hands, he starts to bite your wrist.  If you move your wrists out of the way then it puts me in a position where he can constantly kick my back with his feet (the same feet that kicked a hole in the door).  So he was screaming at 80 decibel volumes (rough estimate based off of a crash cymbal) saying stuff like - "I'LL KILL YOU AS SOON AS YOU LET ME UP!" (not exactly the best thing to say to get up) and eventually he calmed down a bit enough to tell me what he did.  Apparently he took my laptop while I was asleep on the couch and then my mom took my 3DS from him.  Then he started crying about "he took my tablet while I was using it" QQ then I said "gee, that sounds familiar."  Then he said "BUT YOU WEREN'T USING YOUR LAPTOP CAUSE YOU WERE ASLEEP!" QQ  Then I said I was using it as a pillow and he cracked up enough for him to stop throwing a tantrum long enough for us to figure out a deal.  So now I have my laptop back, we're going to play outside for a while, then we're stopping at Dairy Queen.

Reading all of that just seems to point out the fact that your parents aren't disciplining him correctly in the first place for him to think he can get away with such behavior.

It's got nothing to do with respect or fear of you (fear is a weak motivator for siblings) but his disrespect of whatever rules are in place.

Have you tried emotional manipulation? Be all "Why do take my stuff? Why do you hate me? I'm really hurt." and change your actions to match his reaction. It can be lethal if done correctly, but may make your mum question your sexuality.

His brother already seems to think Noc has no balls, since he can do whatever he wants to him. So this would be pretty much the worst he can do. I cannot see how this is supposed to help at all...

idk. It worked for me in India. If you know what answer they are going to give, then you can easily beat them down, but it usually works best with an audience. It also requires that you stay unemotional and cold, which may be hard for Nocturne, since he's so nice.

Do you maybe see my point or

Lol yes I'm serious. And yeah I see your point, I just disagree with it wholeheartedly. Perhaps "having no balls" isn't exactly parallel, but "pussy" and "dick" are so goddamn similar. First of all, they're genitalia and whatnot. Second, honestly, argue subtext or microagressions all you want, but very few people are actually thinking "you're weak like a GIRLLLL" or "you're mean like a GUYYYYYY" when they say them. Yeah, I'm sure the negative connotation of "pussy" arose from that idea, but then again, so did the negative connotation of "dick". Because it is a preconception of men that they're more likely to be assholes oh wait sorry I didn't mean to offend anyone who chooses to utilize the asshole in the bedroom that's a totally respectable lifestyle choice and I am a horrible person douchebags wait no not to say that cleaning supplies for female genitalia are in any way negative but to be fair those are really counterproductive ladies you should stop using them MEAN, INCONSIDERATE PEOPLE, even if it's just a mild one (not to say that this is quite as bad as the preconception behind the usage of "pussy", but where do we draw the fucking line?). But a rare few are actually thinking about that when they say it because that's not how language works.

Personally, my train of thought for calling somebody a pussy is "Hey, I want to lightheartedly joke that this person is being somewhat cowardly (a meaning I don't actually intend, but am feigning the immaturity of intending, hence the joke, haha get it), but calling them a coward sounds a bit too archaic and serious, and calling them a chicken, weenie, scarety-cat or other variant just sounds too childish, and 'wimp' doesn't quite bear the weight that I want it to, so yeah, I'm gonna go with pussy".

Luckily, my line of thought for saying "dick" doesn't have to be so ridiculous, because nobody fucking complains about it, because who cares it's all about the intended meaning. Most kids nowadays learn the word before they even know what a literal pussy is, for fuck's sake. Not that I'm defending the vulgarity of kids screaming on xbox live, but I'm still a bit hesitant to charge them with perpetuating the patriarchy.

Here's the difference in the terms. If you're a pussy, you're being fucked with or you are a cat. If you're a dick, you're the one fucking with people, or your name is Richard.

One gives abuse and therefore implies in some position of power, the other receives it and implies either cowardliness or fragility. So these terms in the proper context could certainly be viewed as sexist, specifically towards females. But honestly, I don't give a shit.

Quote from: SuperFireKirby on January 20, 2015, 05:19:21 PMHere's the difference in the terms. If you're a pussy, you're being fucked with or you are a cat. If you're a dick, you're the one fucking with people, or your name is Richard.

One gives abuse and therefore implies in some position of power, the other receives it and implies either cowardliness or fragility. So these terms in the proper context could certainly be viewed as sexist, specifically towards females. But honestly, I don't give a shit.

Even then (and even if you did give a shit), I'd argue that it's not specifically toward females. More skewed against, sure, but I'm pretty sure being considered an aggressor is still a bad thing. This view of men can arguably be seen in child custody court rulings and the like (and no I'm not saying that this is nearly as bad as how women have it, because acknowledging a problem doesn't mean ceasing to acknowledge other problems). I feel like it's much less enforcing the patriarchy than it is observing it, which is why I'm not for us ceasing to use either word, but I really can't respect an argument against "pussy" if it's not accompanied by one against "dick", because they're really two sides of the same coin.

Oh no, I use both regularly to describe the behavior of both men and women(is it seriously uncommon to call girls dicks? Because that needs fixing). I think both words are just way too playful to be taken all that seriously.

I think it's because while it is sexist, it's so overused to the point that it isn't sexist anymore. Like when someone says "Fuck you", they most definitely do not mean it literally. Similarly, calling someone a "pussy" is never meant in the literal, sexist way it was originally intended.

I OBVIOUSLY did not mean to insult anyone (Except noc. But we have a special relationship.). If I wanted to insult anyone, you would definitely realize it!

"rape is far worse than mild sexism" correct, but guess what, sexism of any form is still very bad

but don't you DARE say rape is just a word when there are several people who suffer sexual assault on a daily basis and have had their lives ruined by it

I feel like both of them had valid arguments but the name-calling wasn't necessary.

And also, out of respect for Slow and his wishes, and seeing that there are plenty of alternatives available for the phrases in questions, let's just try to avoid said terms whether they're deemed sexist or not. Because they're not worth damaging relationships over.

K? Good.

Hmm it seems I ignored the whole argument on the other page. Shame on you guys. Here's what ticked me off:

QuoteSo these terms in the proper context could certainly be viewed as sexist, specifically towards females women.

"Female" reduces a woman to her biological gender. Use the correct term. You're talking about people here. It's surprising to me that this isn't commonly known?

While you can go call people whatever names YOU think are fitting, some of them will definitely make me think less of you if you use them. Those are the ones I don't use myself...

Whenever I hear someone claim they are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean in anything, I just laugh.

IQ tests actually seem pretty accurate. I took one at a young age from a psychologist and a recent online one gave me almost identical results. As to whether or not IQ is important, I'd say it's much too general. Book smarts =/= life smarts =/= memory etc.

But how do you know some random internet person is reporting their score from a legit test and not from some online one, where there's an offer to increase their IQ in exchange for some cash at the very end? Besides, you find a surprising amount of people on these joke and conservative political sites making claims like "My IQ is some ridiculous high number and I've never drank fluoridated water." Or use a number to try to make someone else's argument invalid. There's far more stupid on the Internet than good advice.

I can use females to refer to a bunch of cows (biologically speaking, they're all females). But if you want to specifically refer to human females, use the terms women or girls, because people aren't just a biological sex.

This one guy on facebook posted a meme that said something like "Men are like this, but females are like this..." That's pretty insulting that he can't even acknowledge us as humans like he does for men!

When you refer to "females" doing things, it takes away the human factor that the term "women" would have.  The appropriate (but bizarre) equivalent would be saying "female women", as by saying "females" you are just plain referencing the entire gender, no matter the species.  You can obviously see where this can become a negative or somewhat offensive.

That refers to biological sex, which is male or female.

Gender is more so what a person feels. A person can be biologically male, but they might identify as a girl or something else, so their gender doesn't equate their sex. That's all there is to it.

Now I'm not a native English speaker so I don't know how accurate my view is on the subject but...

I feel it comes down to the difference between "female" and "a female", i.e. is it being used as an adjective or a noun.

"She's a female scientist." <- Adjective, sounds good.
"She's a female." <- Noun, no! Use "a girl" or "a woman" instead.

Every time I hear someone refer to "females" I think of Krogans from Mass Effect.

That's what she meant. The "State of being male or female" refers to whether you feel like you are a man or a woman, in your brain. Not whether you've got the downstairs equipment or not.
 ie:
Quote from: Dictionary.comWoman: a wife. the nature, characteristics, or feelings often attributed to women; womanliness. a sweetheart or paramour; mistress. a female employee or representative:

Female: a person bearing two X chromosomes in the cell nuclei and normally having a vagina, a uterus and ovaries, and developing at puberty a relatively rounded body and enlarged breasts, and retaining a beardless face; a girl or woman. an organism of the sex or sexual phase that normally produces egg cells.
Someone who is a woman is someone who identifies as a woman.Obvious statement is obvious They adhere to the social expectations and implications of being a woman and act femininely. It is not determined by their genitalia. You are mentally a woman

Being female, means you have a vagina and two X chromosomes. You are physically a female.

Those who have a penis, but who identifies as a woman (or vice versa)are transgender (AKA the 'T' in LGBT and QUILTBAG). They often experience gender dysphoria where they are unhappy with not only the sex they are, but the social implications of said sex. They can undergo hormone treatment and surgery to change their bodies.

QUILTBAG is just another acronym for the whole LGBT movement.

Queer/Questioning
Unidentified
Intersex
Lesbian
Transgender/Transexual
Bisexual
Asexual
Gay/Genderqueer

I like to use QUILTBAG so as not to leave anyone out. That is, until they discover another one...

No, you're actually wrong. Look at your quote: it says the state of being male or female in regard to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones. You can be born female biologically and identify as male.

Then there are agender people who identify as neither male nor female and use gender-neutral pronouns like "they" or "them." I know someone like that.

You left out Ally.

I really didn't know much about this until I went to college.

Here's it in a nutshell (and this is pretty much a blanket -- It goes deeper than this):
Biological Sex: Male or Female -- what you're born with
Gender: A spectrum -- what you identify as
Sexual orientation: A spectrum -- who you're attracted to (physically & emotionally)

I think Ally is 100% unnecessary but some dumb straight people wanted to feel included in the acronym lovefest.

Also, you guys should take it easy on Noc. Human sexuality is one of the most complicated fascets of our psyche that's still stumping psychologists and mostly exists in the realm of theories and what-ifs. Forgive the guy for being somewhat(read:very) ignorant on the topic.

They are, but the acronyms are long and confusing enough as it is. And it would follow that an ally for the cause is not part of the cause directly, and straight. Straight is part of the sexuality spectrum, therefore it should be represented as "S" for those who work with that cause.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Nebbles on January 22, 2015, 04:38:24 PM
It's not as important when people think the A stands for ally and they're butting in a space they don't belong in, per say. They don't face hate or ignorance towards their sexuality. They don't experience erasure. They aren't killed, thrown out of their homes, or mocked for being straight. That's not how it works.

As someone who is asexual, I'm tired of people going "but the A stands for ally!!!!!!". It doesn't. I matter too.

Of course you matter. That's why there are 2 As. I'm not saying replace asexual with ally, but to add it to the list. See below.

Quote from: From WikipediaThe initialism LGBTTQQIAAP (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Transsexual, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, Ally, Panssexual) has also resulted, although such initialisms are sometimes criticized for being confusing and leaving some people out, as well as issues of placement of the letters within the new title. However, adding the term "allies" to the acronym has sparked controversy, with some seeing the inclusion of "ally" as opposed to "asexual" a form of asexual erasure. There is also the acronym QUILTBAG (Queer and Questioning, Intersex, Lesbian, Transgender and Transsexual and Two-Spirit, Bisexual, Asexual and Ally, and Gay and Genderqueer).

The reason why ally has been included is because there were people, before this outpouring of support and acceptance for the QUILTBAG community, that supported, helped and fought alongside the community to get to where it is today. and even before I embraced my sexual orientation, I was an ally as well.

I don't really care either way whether I'm included in an acronym, but if you're going to call it a community then it makes sense for allies to be a part of it. Because, ideally, they should be a part of it. That's kind of the goal.

The mother that gets tormented and called a failure of a parent because her daughter is lesbian?
The straight guy who gets bullied for having a gay best friend?
etc.

No, they don't face as much discrimination as the people they're allies with, but I can use the same reasoning and say that bis and asexuals should be removed from the list because they don't have it as bad as I do. Likewise, a transgender person can say the same thing to me. It's not a matter of who suffers the most, it's a group of people fighting against a social inequality.

It's like saying guys can't be feminists or that a white person can't fight to end racism. It crosses the line from "fighting for a cause" to "we're special and you're not."

From personal experience, you def need to check out the student health services at your college. They'll more than likely have something like that for you. Also, don't forget that we're all here for you, too! I had some mild problems with depression like 2 years ago and I know what you're probably going through right now. If you want to talk, just PM me. I'll be here ;)

I was never a fan of professional therapists, eventhough I never tryed it. Always felt like talking to a friend or family member you trust is way better and easier. It is also free. But maybe that is not the case for everyone.

Pls excuse me while I use this topic:

Man, have I got a rant! I freaking remember when NSM was cool and filled with fun people who weren't always trying to either be offended or be offensive to others. Back when if someone said something that could have been taken negatively, they were above starting unnecessary conflict and saw it as nothing more than a common joke, miss communication/lost in translation, or something. Here's an idea: if someone says something that you find offensive, but ISN'T DIRECTLY RELATED TO YOU, OR THEY WERE'NT TALKING SPECIFICALLY TO YOU, either be the bigger man/woman and ignore them, move the topic to PM, or silently use the "report to moderator" button like a considerate forum user.

Sometimes people are pretty direct these days there's no mistake. It's like they don't even try to be considerate of the fact that people are different! Let's also not get to the blame thing---where everyone is apparently at fault except the person who started it (anyone need to know the story about Zeus and the bag of faults?). It's a bigger issue than just on the forum (my two cents).

I have to look for it, so I'm just going to whine on skype. WHIIIIINE. Hope you guys don't get flooded with stuff.

So a topic change! I'm getting really, really annoyed at people who think it's okay to sneak up on me and tickle me (or poke at sides) in public, in front of other people. I think it's totally creepy even if you're friends. Does anyone have a better solution than telling them to stop (which doesn't work)? I'm like this close to slapping. How can I appear more serious? I really don't like coming in contact with people outside of home at all. Should I wear chainmail to get my point across?

Heh, there were actually a few individuals far in the past that got even more upset than those here (though they... lay on the opposite spectrum of beliefs shall we say)

But yes, I think most of you are starting to figure out that this particular topic is going nowhere and will likely only lead into some sort of lynch mob.  If you want to try and discuss it further feel free to do it via PM otherwise I think you'll be seeing the same last 5 pages repeating, if not escalating into something where bans will start being waved around.

THANK YOU. Apparently it's supposed to be a cutesy way to show friendship/greet someone but its just weird. I mostly just go "ahaha...." and look around me while shrugging them off to hopefully give them the message that it is not ok but I'm not really sure if that's working

I think it's past the cute point, and it's just creepy now. I jump or shake them off. Mind you, it's not just people my age that does it. EWWW. The other annoying thing is that you can't say you saw an opportunity or it was an accident. I was sitting on a chair and I'm already shorter than lots of people. You would need to bend down to reach anywhere close to my ribs. Then there's grabbing the back of my neck, but thankfully that hasn't been done for a while.

What, have people never learned to keep their hands to themselves? Suddenly chainmail seems necessary -.-
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: FireArrow on January 24, 2015, 12:32:07 AM
Best solution: Firmly tell them not to do it and let them know how you feel. "DON'T do that anymore! I find it extremely offensive." Don't use words like "uncomfortable" because it won't come across as strong enough.

Easy Solution: Make a secret hand shake with problematic friends that doesn't involve tickling. Now when they see you, they will engage in said handshake rather than intrusive physical contact.

Bleh, sorry about that folks. I'm still running on 48 hours without sleep, and seeing as I posted that during a particularly long layover, I was kinda irritable at the time. I was kinda just tired of seeing everyone shit on nocturne for the same reason you don't want me starting anything else, and I may have overreacted to a mild hypocrisy. I'll be sure to keep these sentiments in mind next time, but like, just wanna make sure you realize it also applies to the considerable period of conflict where I wasn't even here

Yes, sometimes laziness pays off. I don't really think I would have been caught in the middle of something since it all happened in a few minutes. It would have just been chaotic. The police were there in minutes and surrounded the store, plus the shooter targeted one specific person, not randomly shooting everyone like those other crazy guys.

Still...ehhh ._.

I can't stand when people feel the need to constantly one-up everything.  I was kinda stressed this morning as I didn't get as much sleep as I would have liked, and I had 2 assignments due that I hadn't finished, so I had to go see my professor for help, and he was busy until only an hour before class.  After I finished as much of it as I could, I went to class and was talking to some of my classmates about it.  One asked me what was up since I was a bit more on edge than usual.  I explained what happened, how Tuesday nights are so busy for me with all of my work due, and he came back with "I've got it worse, I'm taking 19 credit hours, and I have a job and I'm paying for housing, blah blah blah...."  I was not having any of it, and literally yelled at him to F*** off.

Now I did feel bad afterwards and apologized after class, as did he, but this has happened before with other people and it annoys me.  Let people complain, tell them "that sucks, sorry bro" and move on.  I'm not saying pity everyone or everyone should pity you, just let people have their moment, you are entitled to your own, and don't be an ass.

Quote from: Jub3r7 on January 29, 2015, 12:24:34 AMI'm really sorry about your potato. And maybe your squirrel needed to borrow some luck to help a friend out? I'm reminded of The Fire Within by Chris D'Lacey.

I liked that book lol

So I had to get a blood test today.

The phlebotomist tried my right arm. Couldn't find the vein. he tried my left arm. couldn't find the vein. Then he was able to get it from my hand..

This has NEVER happened. Good thing I don't have an aversion to needles. The one plus side. I actually didn't feel the needles.

This happens to me all the time. I dont really mind the needles originally but they tend to "fish around" with it inside my arm and I'm not really into that. Now it's more of a psychological fear beforehand, since they never stick me less than four times and I'm just expecting it >.>

Yeah. I still didn't care. He kept asking if it hurt and I kept saying no. I have no issue.

Go to the store. Get 2 pints of Ben & Jerrys, get in bed and watch Netflix. If I were closer, I'd give you a hug, say "you don't need them" and go get the ice cream.

Quote from: ZeldaFan on February 04, 2015, 10:33:56 AMWow, you guys never had a sex ed class or anything?? I learned about the women's side of it in 5th grade, then learned about everything in 7th or 8th grade sex ed, then again in 10th grade health class, AND in my college Biology class. After I learned about it in 5th grade, my parents basically just asked me if I had any questions and that was their version of "the talk" lol
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on February 04, 2015, 07:39:06 AMI never even got the talk so I had no clue until end of middle school

I don't think I ever had the talk (or remember)... I sort of... discovered it on my own at some point (which I do not recall).

Maybe I just knew. The furthest I can recall knowing about it was when I was about 7. I could've found out before that.

Lol thanks to the internet no one needs to explain what the previous steps are.

Other than how the baby is made, I think the other thing to know is how to use some birth control. During WWI the US was apparently the only country that didn't give condoms to their soldiers. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birth_control_movement_in_the_United_States#World_War_I_and_condoms) (uh oh!) Much syphilis and gonorrhea followed.

Keep in mind that this country was founded by Puritans who thought European religion was too liberal/not allowed to practice their ways (just one instance).

And we were one of a very select few non-Muslim countries to ban alcohol (Canada prohibited alcohol around the same time as the US).

The United States is not as progressive as other western countries.

I had basically the same sex ed. experience as ZeldaFan. Learned and relearned every in 5th, 6th, 8th, and 10th grade. Only talk i ever hax with my parents was when I was spending a lot of time with my first girlfriend, my mom said to be safe(even tho we never had sex). My dad gave me a brief talk after he heard a girl in my room from the kitchen.

On a similar subject: I give foursomes a 0/10 would never recommend.

So at school we were running a mile and this kid in front of me fell and I tripped over him. I screwed up my leg pretty bad; my knee was bleeding the remainder of the mile. Now it still isn't healing, it hurts like hell, and it's soaked through a million bandages. Plus the blood ruined my jeans.
But tomorrow is Saturday, so yay!

Every song I would love to do was TAKEN BY OTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I have the crappy "Super" Paper Mario songs to take care of, and now I feel like it's the end of the world.
Good thing there's a super Mario Lego Fan to take care of me.
I'd either have to do unfamiliar songs (I hate that) or do a Super Paper Mario song, which sucks a lot!
And all the midis are PERFECT! I would have replaced them, but I would have been shot in the head with a bullet.

I was playing FE7 and spent an entire hour training lord units in the arena. I move on to other units until I get to Heath who keeps nearly dieing because I can't exploit Nini's protection. He finally gets doubled by a lvl 10 mercenary with a silver sword when he was 30 XP from being able to class up. I'm mad, but I don't want to waste the last hour, so I move on. The only enemy left is the boss, which just has to be a swordmaster. I use filla's might to boos Raven's attack, so he has 86% hit, 20 dmg, and 24% crit (Killing edge)
He misses, the boss gets a ****ing 12% crit, and I throw the gamepad. Not a good day so far.

I'm trying to find out what logical reasoning people have for doing this, but it evades me. It reminds me of when I was in Kindergarten: they gave out an award for the student who showed up for EVERY day of class. The winners were people who came every day despite being sick, most likely getting everybody else sick in the process (hey, at least it's eliminating the competition!).

Today didn't start out great....

I had to get up for work at 5am this morning, after only 4 hours of sleep. I get ready to go out to my car, turn it on and... nothing. My car battery is dead. I only know one of my neighbors and have just one friend who is close enough to help, but he's on his way to work and I can't bother the neighbor at this hour... So I call my boss and tell him I can't come in. I missed out on 6 hours of overtime today >:(

But my day got better.
Later my neighbor gave me a jump so I drove to get a new battery. They tested it, it was defective, and since I had only had it 1.5 years, they replaced it for free! Lucky me, I didn't have to shell out another $130-ish for a new battery!

I really think you should see a doctor DDDDD: especially if you get anything like a fever afterwards. Doesn't every drug label ever tell you to see a doctor if "symptoms persist for over 7 (or so) days"?

Currently 6:30 AM. Have yet to sleep because I'm still working on a bio paper. Yay last minute scrambling! Stomach feels pretty sick, possibly due to the 8 cups of very strong coffee I've ingested as well as the nausea I often get when I go without sleep for too long. Possibly a bit of dehydration thrown in the mix as well.

On the bright side, I really enjoy reading ecology research articles, so I'm at least semi-enjoying the work. And after I get this shit done and turned in, I can just sleep for the rest of the week.

I've been having fairly frequent nosebleeds all my life, but during the last 2 weeks they seem to be happening every day. My doctor insists that it's because of the dry winter air... but we've been having quite a few rainstorms.

Speaking of cringeworthy club events, the JSA at my school always holds a maid cafe event, and I've heard from my friends that are other club officers who are friends of JSA officers that they've heard the event is super popular because of a sudden influx of creepy weeaboos and otakus that come out of the woodworks just for this event .___.

I agree with this, war is pretty disturbing to me. Although I'd personally experience it in small doses (i.e., a movie) than take for granted the people who defend my country.

It's not for everyone though, and that's perfectly understandable.

Well, that could be a good thing. if your withholding allowances decreased, then it's fine. but in other situations it's not. You could have also not received a credit that you might have received in a prior year (namely AOC and EIC). You could run a comparative analysis and if you forgot something, you could file an amended return.

Deepest condolences.  Now, we're going to need a stack of hallmark cards, a 15-foot tall teddy bear from Costco, a 30 dollar bouquet, a 15' x 15' sheet of blueprint paper, a white/silver sharpie marker, one of Barry Manilow's albums, and a 5 course meal including applewood smoked ham.  Oh, and the perfume, we'll need 3 bottles of perfume.  Now, send them off to do something.  Then, using the silver sharpie marker, write sappy love letters to both your parents, addressed to the other, inviting them to come home early from work/wherever you sent them.  Make sure the love letters are absolutely COATED in perfume.  When they get home, make sure the teddy bear is set up holding the bouquet and Barry Manilow is playing in the background.  The lights should be dimmed to about 30% their maximum capacity-candles are optional, but they work wonders.  The 5-course meal should be laid out in perfect symmetry, on the smallest size table you can find.  You hide in the closet and when they get confused, come out and tell them that if they get divorced it will have deep and negative psychological consequences on all involved, that you love them both so much that you couldn't bear to be apart from either of them for any amount of time, and that they once loved each other enough to raise you and you support them and completely believe in them and their ability to make up with each other and rediscover that lost love that once was.

...Nocturne, no. That's not okay even if you said "only some of this was serious".

I'm really sorry about the divorce, though. My parents divorced when I was young, so I don't really remember a lot of it, but I'm here if you need to talk to me.

Similar antifun experience when you wear contacts and do something to get one of them all folded up and lodged at the top of your eyelid.  Makes for a fun 5-30min of stinging, rubbing eyes, and inflammation.

Right now I am feeling dubiously prepared for my photonics midterm tomorrow, which is open note, open book, and open computer.  Everything is so vague and there are so many resources available and so much content idk if I've covered what I should or if it will even matter given what I'll have access to o.O  Either it will be straightforward or something never seen before on this planet.

I used to be the same way, but when I was 19 I decided I was tired of glasses and didn't look good in them (never did imo :P) so I got contacts. I think it took me ~20 minutes to put them in the first time, but now it's easy :) It just takes practice. But if you like your glasses then keep them!

On a side note, my car still isn't fixed :( I took the battery in yesterday to make sure the problem wasn't that before I towed my car. Looks like I will be towing my car to the mechanic after work today :(

gonna clear two things up that i thought were obvious

someone was called a slutfucker for the purpose of making a joke about being an asshole

second, "of course  ::)" could be rewritten as "that's exactly who i was talking about, who else would i be talking about, why would i be talking about anyone else" as in, it was sarcasm used to indicate that the thing they were "confirming" was not, in fact, the case.

Compare them with the theoretical escalators that launch people into the air rather than deliver them safely to their destination.

My life sucks b/c of me, and I keep planning to change that, but new and old obstacles arise. So I plan to systematically identify obstacles, and countermeasures, and not give up on a countermeasure just because it fails to work once.

The following is a rant for the purposes of making me feel better. I apologize for this act of selfish graffiti, but I need to be angry at something. Ignore it if you want to.

So I had to do research on feminism and gender equality for a book we're reading in English. After learning more about Gamergate and learning of certain Reddit communities, my faith in humanity has officially left for Mars. It's gone. Bye, bye faith. Like...I can't even comprehend the circumstances in which some of these people formulate their arguments because they are beyond the point of insanity. And it's both sides! Extremist feminists just bash on men, while anti-feminists lack basic social and human understandings that a fucking tree has. Why can't they just apply the "Treat everyone as you wish to be treated rule" to everything. It's not that difficult! The majority of us seem to manage it well. I swear, need to punch someone in their genitalia.

TL;DR: The internet makes me mad.

You should read Emma Watson's speech on feminism. Here I took out a few excerpts that's relevant to your claim about bashing on men. And I think this is relevant why some men just seem insensitive.

Spoiler
"I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women six months ago. And, the more I spoke about feminism, the more I realized that fighting for women's rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating. If there is one thing I know for certain, it is that this has to stop.

For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It is the theory of political, economic and social equality of the sexes.

...

Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation. Gender equality is your issue, too. Because to date, I've seen my father's role as a parent being valued less by society, despite my need of his presence as a child, as much as my mother's. I've seen young men suffering from mental illness, unable to ask for help for fear it would make them less of a man. In fact, in the UK, suicide is the biggest killer of men between 20 to 49, eclipsing road accidents, cancer and coronary heart disease. I've seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success. Men don't have the benefits of equality, either.

We don't often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes, but I can see that they are, and that when they are free, things will change for women as a natural consequence. If men don't have to be aggressive in order to be accepted, women won't feel compelled to be submissive. If men don't have to control, women won't have to be controlled.

Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive. Both men and women should feel free to be strong. It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum, instead of two sets of opposing ideals. If we stop defining each other by what we are not, and start defining ourselves by who we are, we can all be freer, and this is what HeForShe is about. It's about freedom."

Oh, I've watched her speech. It was one of the most sane things I watched in the past few days. I didn't mean to imply that all feminists hate men, since that would be hypocrisy of the highest order, but I meant to convey my distaste for some really extreme feminist arguments. The worst, in particular, was one who claimed that all gay men are inherently sexist, because they hate vaginas therefore, they must hate women.

Actually, now that I think about it, I haven't actually read any feminist argument which I could call man-hating; only the arguments from the anti-feminists really made any point about man-hating...That annoys me.

...Wat that's just total nonsense. ._.

lf you want to read about feminism, you should look at speeches from the past. Women were treated worse back then and didn't speak lacking knowledge and lacking more extreme experiences. Most modern day speeches are ignorant because they lack the ethos (the spirit which motivates ideas and customs) because they didn't suffer as much as the women back then. Look at Elizabeth Cady Stanton, or Sojourner Truth (who was born into slavery and suffered inequalities as a woman, yikes.)

TL;DR I'm not saying women don't suffer today. They definitely still have to face sexism, but it was worse back then and those women would most likely, let's say, "speak from the heart."

As for anti-feminists, I think they just think feminists hate all men. Like Emma Watson said, "feminism" appears to have become too synonymous to "man-hating."

I found that a bit odd, but I think that comes from how women don't like to hear people joke about their body parts. There was an editorial about Rose McGowan's comments about that on the Huffington Post (I can't find it now, actually since I'm using another computer). The point is that she thought it was offensive that some gay men act so immature about something they don't really understand.

Yeah, that's what I gathered. Most of the anti-feminist stuff is titled along the lines of "Why feminism is bad," but turns out to be a tirade on a single feminist and why she, in particular, doesn't explain her position properly and therefore, she is bad. Totally painting an entire group with the same brush and many quotes out of context. It's unfortunate that feminism has gained the connotation that it has.

I've seen a few "man-hating" comments (primarily along the lines of "all men are evil/(negative adjective), etc.) from people who call themselves "feminists" (mostly on Reddit, because I don't bother delving into any of those other websites, where I'm sure there's worse)... I think this (http://thezerothlaw.tumblr.com/post/92382226252/why-tumblr-feminism-is-misguided) is relevant (there are a few examples of hateful comments here).

The problem is, the most vocal portion of a group is often the one that influences other peoples' perception of the group as a whole. If there were more feminists like Emma Watson (rather than those who merely spew hate), there is no doubt that the overall perception of the group would be positive (of course, tying back to the earlier issue, that's a difficult thing to do with the internet, as anybody can call themselves a "feminist"). As it stands, the practice of feminism (versus the concept, as you described it) has become somewhat marred.

Well it's like any issue, isn't it? Public perception is often shaped by the crazies of a group. Take Islam and Christianity for an example. In both religion you have the crazies (The one's who are part of ISIS and the one's who Bible bash against homosexuals especially if they've had abortions and are black), but, for the large majority, both people affiliated with these Religions are people who live down the street and have no problem with thinking similarly to them. Yet it's the media that goes on and on about how "Islam's threatening homes!" and "This Christian pastor wants to bring back segregation; and he's coming for your town!" It's the fear mongering which makes feminism seem a threat and therefore bad.

The problem I see with feminism, is that it doesn't have a direction. In the past, feminism was easy; "We want women to vote!" "We want to have women to be employed!" and this was an easy argument, since the end goal was clear. Now, because the aim of feminism to change the values that society holds of women, it's harder to not only explain the current feminist position, but also to properly target the issues that feminism has with society.

TL;DR: The media is still bad and the source of all evil. Feminism is hard to explain.

AUGH!  I have a great idea, and that's terrible.  Allow me to explain:

I am not that creative, rather I can come up with grand ideas, but I have trouble acting upon them either from inability, apathy, or others not pulling weight.  That last one gives me a crippling fear of explaining my ideas to people as I've had/shared/worked on ideas in the past with my friends that never work out to completion.  And thus, my current dilemma, I have an idea for a game, an amazing story in my mind's eye, I have the tools to make it, but I rarely have time to put towards it, and when I try, I'm unhappy with the looks of even basic things, like how the area/map looks, and I get discouraged from working on it.  I want to tell people about it, but I'm afraid of hyping it up or just making it so big that it never gets done like my friend's machinima or the pokemon rom hack for k-night's story.

Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

This rant contains
-My opinions
-Language

I really wasn't sure if I should post this, but it's something I feel strongly about and no one else seems to care :-\
I don't rant often, so here we go...

My rant about women in the media...
I really just need to get this out there, no one else in my life seems to quite get it...

I absolutely HATE how women in media and on the internet are portrayed - as if all we can do to get ahead in life is show off our bodies or twerk in front of the camera or be a stripper or a celebrity. People treat women as if all we are worth is the makeup and clothes we put on. It's as if the only thing that matters is how we look, how big our boobs are, how big our butts are, how thin we are.
I can't tell you HOW MANY TIMES I have gone to a content website that posts "funny" photos/gifs and scrolling down the pics, there's some random photo of some girl's ass, or a girl wearing a shirt with no bra. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK!! and honestly that makes me never want to come back to that website.

It confuses me as to WHY so many girls even post pics like that... It is for the attention, no doubt, but if you wouldn't go out in public like that, why would you post it on the internet for millions of people to see??? FUCK, it's like, have some self-respect! Leave something to the imagination! You don't get respect from anyone by showing off your shit like that. I think that at that point you are reducing yourself to just a human body... No one cares about your likes/dislikes. No one cares about your personality. No one cares where you're from, who your friends are, what your hobbies are. LITERALLY you are a thing to look at, and move on. That's it. Why would you want that?
I read a study once that found that when men look at a scantily-clad woman, the process in their brain is the same process that happens when a man looks at a tool. A tool! We are seen as something to be used in that instance!

The same thing happens on youtube videos... Especially the "win/fail" type of videos. Any "win" that involves a girl is her twerking, or shaking her tits, or dancing around in a bikini. And that one clip ALWAYS lasts 5x longer than any other clip in the video. Even if the clip is say, a girl skateboarding, she's always wearing hardly any clothes. Even fucking commercials are doing this... They show a hot girl in a bikini using their product. Doesn't matter what it is or what the woman is doing, as long as she's showing off all her assets.

I just hate how everything involving women is so hyper-sexualized, to the point where girls now are concerned about their looks and their weight by age 10. TEN! They have eating disorders! They are on diets! They wear makeup and high heels! When I was 10, I was climbing trees and riding bikes, I didn't have time for that shit! Everything in a fashion magazine makes anyone who reads them feel instantly more depressed and upset about their body image. But why? Because that's what guys want (generally). That's what gets a guy's attention. Doesn't matter if it is the wrong kind of attention. And because acting and dressing this way gets attention, girls continue to do it. And guys perpetuate it by giving them the attention they want. So girls post more pics to get more attention.

*Sigh* ...Women don't believe they are beautiful anymore... They think their beauty depends on how many likes they get on Facebook, or how many guys talk to them because of one photo. They see other (photoshopped) women in the media and think they are ugly because they don't look that way, like a perfect barbie doll with perfect skin and perfect hair. It's ridiculous and sad how many women these days have such low self-esteem because they place their self-worth on the way they look.
I have been guilty of this too... For many years I thought I was unattractive and told myself every day that I was ugly, and I'd be lucky if I ever got one date because of how I look. Then I decided that my looks aren't the ONLY thing that matters, so I started to care less what others thought and developed my personality instead. I still have a long way to go, but this process has helped me gain self-esteem. I now have many more friends than I ever had before, I have a boyfriend, and I feel more beautiful than ever, because I know that I am beautiful inside which makes me more attractive on the outside.

It seems that most people on this site understand the value of an attractive personality, rather than an attractive face/body. And I'm happy for that.

Your attractiveness is not solely based on how you look. It includes your personality. I know that some of you may not like the way you look, or believe that you're ugly, but please stop. It's not helping anyone, least of all yourself. I have been through that, I know how it feels, and it is really not worth believing. If you are beautiful on the inside, it will reflect on your outside, and people will like you and want to be around you because of how you act, not how you look.
[close]

WAAAAY TL;DR: I hate how women are portrayed in the media/on the internet, as if our worth is based on our looks. Most things are hyper-sexualized, and women often have very low self-esteem as a result.

ALSO - since I know how some people are here - these are my opinions. Do not tell me I'm wrong or get angry with me because you have a different opinion than I do.

That's what gets a guy's attention. Doesn't matter if it is the wrong kind of attention. And because acting and dressing this way gets attention, girls continue to do it. And guys perpetuate it by giving them the attention they want. So girls post more pics to get more attention.

*Sigh* ...Women don't believe they are beautiful anymore... They think their beauty depends on how many likes they get on Facebook, or how many guys talk to them because of one photo. They see other (photoshopped) women in the media and think they are ugly because they don't look that way, like a perfect barbie doll with perfect skin and perfect hair. It's ridiculous and sad how many women these days have such low self-esteem because they place their self-worth on the way they look.
I have been guilty of this too... For many years I thought I was unattractive and told myself every day that I was ugly, and I'd be lucky if I ever got one date because of how I look. Then I decided that my looks aren't the ONLY thing that matters, so I started to care less what others thought and developed my personality instead. I still have a long way to go, but this process has helped me gain self-esteem. I now have many more friends than I ever had before, I have a boyfriend, and I feel more beautiful than ever, because I know that I am beautiful inside which makes me more attractive on the outside.

It seems that most people on this site understand the value of an attractive personality, rather than an attractive face/body. And I'm happy for that.

Your attractiveness is not solely based on how you look. It includes your personality. I know that some of you may not like the way you look, or believe that you're ugly, but please stop. It's not helping anyone, least of all yourself. I have been through that, I know how it feels, and it is really not worth believing. If you are beautiful on the inside, it will reflect on your outside, and people will like you and want to be around you because of how you act, not how you look.
[close]

WAAAAY TL;DR: I hate how women are portrayed in the media/on the internet, as if our worth is based on our looks. Most things are hyper-sexualized, and women often have very low self-esteem as a result.

ALSO - since I know how some people are here - these are my opinions. Do not tell me I'm wrong or get angry with me because you have a different opinion than I do.
10/10 rant. This is the best rant I've ever seen.
It's so true.....it's sad.
I totally agree Zeldafan! It's sickening how women are portrayed these days. Looks aren't everything if anything. They make kids (girls) these days think that beauty is so important at such a young age when it's not. Geez! Let them be a kid for crying out loud!
Most of the Victoria's Secret models are like anorexic (thought I heard that somewhere) which is just crazy.
 
Nice Zelda! :)

This is true, especially for male models. I won't deny that a lot of models could be anorexic though.

I'm actually really surprised by this because the issue is so prevalent. It's everywhere: billboards, magazines at the checkout stand, any gossip website, Victoria's Secret, Abercrombie or Spencer's in the mall, commercials, award shows, several different anime series, banner ads on websites, and many video game characters (Samus, Lara Croft, pretty much every female in Street Fighter and WoW ::))

If you have managed to stay away from it, good for you! Wish that were true for more people.

The way women are portrayed and treated is awful, I agree, but the one thing I take issue with is saying that all women who post naked pics/almost naked pics (or wear tight clothing or whatever) are gross or self-demeaning for doing so. If they choose to do that and it makes them happy, there shouldn't be an issue with it imo.

-My opinions
-Language

I really wasn't sure if I should post this, but it's something I feel strongly about and no one else seems to care :-\
I don't rant often, so here we go...

My rant about women in the media...
I really just need to get this out there, no one else in my life seems to quite get it...

I absolutely HATE how women in media and on the internet are portrayed - as if all we can do to get ahead in life is show off our bodies or twerk in front of the camera or be a stripper or a celebrity. People treat women as if all we are worth is the makeup and clothes we put on. It's as if the only thing that matters is how we look, how big our boobs are, how big our butts are, how thin we are.
I can't tell you HOW MANY TIMES I have gone to a content website that posts "funny" photos/gifs and scrolling down the pics, there's some random photo of some girl's ass, or a girl wearing a shirt with no bra. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK!! and honestly that makes me never want to come back to that website.

It confuses me as to WHY so many girls even post pics like that... It is for the attention, no doubt, but if you wouldn't go out in public like that, why would you post it on the internet for millions of people to see??? FUCK, it's like, have some self-respect! Leave something to the imagination! You don't get respect from anyone by showing off your shit like that. I think that at that point you are reducing yourself to just a human body... No one cares about your likes/dislikes. No one cares about your personality. No one cares where you're from, who your friends are, what your hobbies are. LITERALLY you are a thing to look at, and move on. That's it. Why would you want that?
I read a study once that found that when men look at a scantily-clad woman, the process in their brain is the same process that happens when a man looks at a tool. A tool! We are seen as something to be used in that instance!

The same thing happens on youtube videos... Especially the "win/fail" type of videos. Any "win" that involves a girl is her twerking, or shaking her tits, or dancing around in a bikini. And that one clip ALWAYS lasts 5x longer than any other clip in the video. Even if the clip is say, a girl skateboarding, she's always wearing hardly any clothes. Even fucking commercials are doing this... They show a hot girl in a bikini using their product. Doesn't matter what it is or what the woman is doing, as long as she's showing off all her assets.

I just hate how everything involving women is so hyper-sexualized, to the point where girls now are concerned about their looks and their weight by age 10. TEN! They have eating disorders! They are on diets! They wear makeup and high heels! When I was 10, I was climbing trees and riding bikes, I didn't have time for that shit! Everything in a fashion magazine makes anyone who reads them feel instantly more depressed and upset about their body image. But why? Because that's what guys want (generally).

It's not just one or two facets of media- it's how our entire culture is shaped, and how people respond to it. If people feel that something should be changed, people actually need to want to make a change, no matter how much they go against the norm (something I think many people are afraid of), and sadly, very few people actually want to make a change (or even fewer people want to make the right changes).

In many ways, it's only perpetuating the issue, though. If people complain about the way something is, but go along with that thing, they're not doing anything to resolve the problem- I guess you could say that actions speak louder than words?

Bullying is another issue that people don't do enough about. It would take a little bit effort from everybody to solve... but then again, people are people, so-to-say.

I get your point, and I understand people have different lifestyles, some women like being strippers or porn stars, so good for them. In my opinion, it is demeaning, but to each her own I guess.

My problem with it is that now everyone expects women to be this way, to show off their bodies, to practice how to be sexy, and learn how to do makeup and hair, because heaven forbid you go out poorly dressed and with no makeup on.

Too much of an exaggeration. There are a lot of women who don't, at least in NYC. They usually wear it because they're not confident enough in their natural looks and they're afraid of society judging them, etc.

Not sure if this is what you meant... But this is how I've been feeling lately.
Once you reach a certain age you realize that everyone is all wound up in their own selfish worlds... They start to get into relationships and marriages, start having kids... pretty soon you haven't seen your best friends in a year, then two years, then five. You wonder how they are, and how time has gone by so quickly. Then you start to wonder why they never contacted you to remain friends. But then, you didn't contact them either... So your friendship just slowly withered and died with each passing day, neither party realizing or acknowledging it...

Sad to say, but this seems to happen a lot :'(

This is true, and I think we humans look out for ourselves for survival. It's human and animal instinct. We are naturally greedy. We're born into so much competition.

Good on you bro, I'd never be able to do that.

I'm rather peeved right now though.  I was playing Smite with my friends, we got into a match, and the character select screen just never showed up for any of us.  Eventually we all got kicked, and only I got banned for 30 minutes for desertion, plus my goodwill(increases in-game currency you get at the end of a match) was completely wiped.  None of this was my fault mind you, and they didn't get banned. >:(

What I Think:
A man sat on a ledge, glancing over the landscape beneath him. The lush green land spread as far as he could see, all the way to the edge of the distant mountains. Beneath him, a slain animal lay, which the man occasionally dug into with his hands and devoured. Another man approached from behind. He stopped a few feet away.

"Robert," the man said: his voice held equal parts question and statement.


What I Write:
Bob eat meat. Man approach. Man say "Bob."

So I had to drive ~1 mile on a flat to my bf's grandma's house to use their phone so I could call my bf to come help me put on the spare.. UGH! And of course there are no tire stores open on Sunday... Now I get to go spend ~$200 on new tires today after work.

I swear I have the worst luck with tires... I have probably replaced 18 tires over 6 years of having 4 different cars.

A majority of people are having no problem with it. If Chrome used to work finely for you, perhaps you a file was corrupted. Have you tried uninstalling Google Chrome, deleting the folder from your Program Files folder, etc. and installing it again?

If you're sure it has to do with browsers, it could be a wifi card driver issue. Try updating the driver/firmware.

That's just the thing. It didn't crash when I used IE to download FF. And FF didn't BSOD until the 3rd launch. And it didn't Bs when I just used Windows Update to check for additional updates. (Checked, and nothing was updated in the past 3 days)
Here's a lengthy description I posted elsewhere to look for answers:
Spoiler
Completely out of the blue, (no pun intended) my laptop bluescreened last night. I thought it was just some random error, but now I can't get it to run for more than 10 minutes without a bluescreen. The strange thing is this: I didn't do anything different. I didn't download anything new.
More info: It's a Dell Inspiron 5520r running windows 7. I haven't had any other bluescreens up to this point. I have also replaced the hard drive with a SSD when it was dropped a year and a half ago. Another note: either the day before or a few days before, I noticed the ram was being hogged. I found out that Trustedinstaller was using 600,000+ KB, so I naturally closed it. Also, after the 2nd bluescreen, I noticed that the gadgets did not pop up as they normally do, and the host program was taking 600,000+ KB of memory. After the 3rd one, it was only taking up 10,000+ KB. And I noticed that Chrome was up every time, but it's been on my computer since I got the SSD.
Any suggestions?

Open your Task Manager and monitor the memory usage, sorting the list of processes by memory usage, and see if anything hogs up an abnormal amount of memory. Sorting by CPU usage might reveal something, too. Perhaps try to somehow intentionally crash your system with the Task Manager visible so you can catch anything that happens immediately before the crash.

Done that.
It seems better, and I was able to cause a bluescreen by opening many programs at once. (Copypaste details below.)
Spoiler
More info: It doesn't always instantly Blue screen. I was able to get Chrome open, albeit with a lengthy, massive CPU spike. (95%+ for 5+ seconds) It seems somewhat stable now, but opening a new page lags the entire computer. It's not just chrome. IE was extremely laggy and FireFox crashed as well. Yet, I was able to check for updates with windows update. I'll update this post in a few moments when I get the next inevitable bluescreen.
Opening 14 tabs at once maxed out the CPU for 20+ Seconds. It's an Intel i5-3210 (2.50 GHz) so I don't understand why this is happening.
Opening Itunes, GC, FF, and IE simultaneously resulted in a 40+ second max spike and Blue screened 30 seconds after the cpu usage went down
And now the details:

Interesting. Which language(s) do you feel have the most potential for the future? I'm sort of bummed out that I chose to invest in my first programming language (Java), and am looking to specialize in another language more useful for heavy desktop applications or client-side web applications.

I'm a 16-year old high school student and have been learning programming for two years. I got my OCPJP certification last year. Currently working on OCM certification.

So, do the programs max out the CPU by themselves, or with another process? For example, when you get Chrome open, is Chrome itself taking up 95%, or is it taking up, say, 25%, with another process taking up 70%?

I just realized that's the one thing I forgot to check. I also just realized that Finale Notepad was using 15% of the CPU for about 5 seconds despite not being used for the past hour. So, yeah, that might be the problem. What do I do if seemingly random programs do that?

Dang it, I was banking on a single process being the problem. If the programs that eat up the CPU are random, then I've run out of ideas. Perhaps it's an issue with aging/malfunctioning hardware, although your processor seems to be only 2 years old. Perhaps something in the operating system has a corrupted file/registry, which must be fixed by re-installing Windows. It's probably something else entirely that I have no knowledge of.

I think that if you go into the "details" section of the Task Manager and right click on certain processes,you can set the priority to "low." That could temporarily alleviate the issue by preventing them from obtaining too much CPU bandwidth, while you continue to investigate.

Uhm... I have honestly no idea.
I think Java, C++ and C# are a good start if you want to develop desktop applications. It depends on the project, but if I have the free choice, I would always choose C# for that, because it offers a lot of simple solutions for complex problems. Developing with it is usually pretty straight forward and data-binding is also pretty cool when using WPF. WPF still has it's flaws, but overall I prefer the whole XAML system over the old WinForms version.
If you want to go and make some (smartphone-)apps (which will be even more important in the future) having a good knowledge of said languages will benefit you greatly.

But today this very nervous kid was talking to me and I actually had a mild panic attack because his attitude was affecting me so much. After he left I was shaking for a good ten minutes and all my friends were worried (which just made me feel worse) :/ the weird thing was although i had that sensation of fear and nervousness, if I really thought about it I felt totally fine, but I just couldn't control myself

Ok so my laptop battery has been going out and dying really fast for about a month now (my laptop is 2.5 years old, so that's to be expected) so I've just been keeping it plugged in 24/7 so I could actually use it. Well 2 days ago it was plugged in, was not charging for some reason, but was holding the charge at 80%. Then out of nowhere yesterday my laptop just died and now the charging cord doesn't work either... *sigh* so I bought a new cord and in order for me to receive it tomorrow instead of next Monday, I paid an extra $13. Ugh. I hate malfunctioning electronics.
Has anyone bought a laptop battery before? Does it have to be name brand? On Amazon I can get one for $30 while HP sells them for $100

It's quite obvious that the manufacturer's battery will be superior to any 3rd party battery. However, it isn't $70 better. I'd recomend getting a cheaper battery and be on the lookout for a good deal on a new laptop. Don't order it if your laptop doesn't turn on when plugged in. It should provide enough power even if the battery is removed.

Well 2 days ago it was plugged in, was not charging for some reason, but was holding the charge at 80%. Then out of nowhere yesterday my laptop just died and now the charging cord doesn't work either... *sigh* so I bought a new cord and in order for me to receive it tomorrow instead of next Monday, I paid an extra $13. Ugh. I hate malfunctioning electronics.
Has anyone bought a laptop battery before? Does it have to be name brand? On Amazon I can get one for $30 while HP sells them for $100
I would hate if the charging cord was not the issue. It doesn't sound like a charging cord issue to me.

I once bought a 3rd party battery for my camcorder (Sony), but a higher-capacity model than my original one. It worked well and I had no complaints.

If they do it right, a third-party battery can theoretically be every bit as good as the original manufacturer's battery. In my case, it was better.

No, actually I made my Mom contact Nintendo. When she was talking on the phone with them, she said to me, "It' 110 bucks to repair it." Then I told her to talk em down :P
$75 is as low as they went. I convinced my Mom to pay $20 of it so Im really only paying $55. :)

Getting a bit paranoid over an upcoming test I have to do where I need to memorize 46 Japanese hiragana characters and write them all down in order to pass. The frustrating part is that if I get 39 or less it's an automatic F grade, despite how it would technically be a B- in normal circumstances. This isn't even my final in Japanese class, (That's a two minute speech which I am more confident in doing as I've practiced) yet I'm still getting very nervous that I'll fail the test as I've come so far. Even with studying it's proving to be very stressful...
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Bubbles on April 22, 2015, 09:14:40 PM
There's nothing that makes me angrier than unfair grading. I can't wait until I get to a class that uses class percent curves lol

Memorizing hiragana was actually slightly therapeutic for me, so maybe it's your studying habit that's stressing you? There's so many things online designed to help you remember them all so it couldn't hurt to shake it up a bit. Try and find a game or pictograms to help you remember the shapes, if that's what helps you learn easier
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: TheDreamingHawk on April 24, 2015, 07:10:54 PM
Yeah my teacher helped me with some ideas on better studying, and now I know about thirty of them a week before the test, so I think I can do it if I work harder. Hoping it goes well next week.

...Though sadly it seems today wasn't that good of a day for me either, mainly due to me having to stay an hour after math class was over to finish a test we took today (It took me forever because the rest of my class do not do any work at all, instead preferring to talk extremely loudly and make stupid noises while I'm actually trying my hardest to focus. The Teacher does nothing because she's brand new and is scared the students will call her "mean" if she asks her advisor to watch the class. Yes, that's the reason she gave me when I expressed my frustration), and hearing the news on the video game side of things that Lufia II is never coming to the Wii U Virtual Console because Nintendo won't allow Natsume to release any more SNES games, which REALLY made me sad because the Lufia series is another great franchise that I like a lot and want to try out more games from. (I've only played the GBC Lufia so far)

Here's hoping next week things get better for me at least

Nebbles, don't worry about it. I know that we value you for who you are, and all of your friends probably do too. Grades can always be improved.  :)
Also, just make sure that you aren't setting unnecessarily high expectations for yourself. That just sets you up for being disappointed.  :(
You can't stop evaluating yourself, but you have to try to make it productive, even if that seems hard sometimes. Use your bad grade as a way to get better, instead of a way to sulk or procrastinate (not saying you're doing any of those things, but I do them, so...)
Basically, just do your best, try hard, and look for help if you need it.

Some people really are "bad test-takers", which I don't completely understand, because as Daniel Tosh puts it, "Oh, you struggle with that part where we find out what you know?" But in actuality, I do know some otherwise intelligent people who fall under this category, so I wouldn't really discredit it. It has to do with performance under pressure, as well as how well you're able to think critically using the information given on the test (I can't tell you how many times my grade's been saved by going back and changing my answer based on information given in a later question/problem).

However, everybody else is typically complaining about that 1/4 of the time that they're not easier. Classes for higher level subjects often forego other grading entirely; many people I know have to deal with classes where the grade is just a midterm and a final.

I don't think taking college courses while still in high school counts as "being in college"

I'm taking both the physics SAT and AP tests in the next week. For some reason they don't even have the same material on them ://

Well, also taking the classes and living at home with no other ties to the university are vastly different from the experiences from when you live on the campus/with friends and the whole "experience".

A college experience for someone is something that is very crucial in becoming an adult and truly discovering yourself. I highly advocate for this type of experience.

I know the discussion is about test taking, but the college "experience" can be a huge factor in success of classes.

A lot of colleges have special education programs where high school students can enroll and take up to 2 classes (at least my local community college does it that way.) I took one last semester and you're technically enrolled as a priority 3, albeit claiming to be in college is a bit of a stretch.

Did you apply through special/advanced education or did you apply as a priority 1/2 student. If the former, then no, you're not in college.

Why do people worry about state tests
They don't actually mean anything to you specifically, they just determine funding for your school
Any other ramifications for doing poorly is pretty much illegal, I'm pretty sure (at least in california)

They're also kinda written to the lowest common demoninator, so as long as you try you're probably fine (again, at least in california)

I don't worry about them any more... they just really irritate me in general, especially now that they're using the CAASPP testing (that sounds so sinister, like: as he walked through the dank cavern, he heard a terrible noise, coming from the shadows- CAASPP!- he jumped and splashed into a pit of water he had not seen before!).

Well 70% of the things colleges look at in NYC are your grades and 30% are your extracurriculars. You need to get a high average on your GPA in all classes, pass all the regents tests, score high on the SATs, score high on the PSATs to get scholarships, and do things outside of school like joining clubs or internships to get into a good college. The better the school, the more opportunities will follow. It's really stressful to do all this at once. I feel pressured enough to get into a good college. I really need a stable career in the future because as of now, things aren't looking too great in my family. -.-'

NY college aside from columbia or cornell aren't that good though.  Most schools are probably more like 40-50% or more looking at extracurriculars and the rest looking at grades.  For some the grades are just used as a cutoff and essays/extracurriculars are what can actually get you in.

I might actually have some kind of anxiety or depression issue. That just... scares me...

This was actually me this school year. I could never motivate myself to actually do anything. Ever. And it sucks.  :-\

Take it from the living monument of college freshman dropouts-- once you've hit rock bottom and come out, next time you feel this way, you'll at least be able to say to yourself "Man this sucks, but it's not as bad as..."
Nothing is quite as motivating as the memory of failure.

The desire to prove something to someone is also very motivating. There's a certain chunk of my family that attributes my Freshman Follies of 2011 to my (at the time) newfound obsession for music transcription. Making music from VG games and playing them, what's the difference? It's still all games. Coming back in 2014, I made it a personal goal to show that not only could I get good grades, but do that while consistently having a new upload/sheet once a week. Telling my dad about my recent 3.3 GPA (before a 0.8 ) never felt so sweet. 
tl;dr - The "I told you so" factor

Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Hero of Trains on May 08, 2015, 04:43:27 AM
I'm a slightly less reliable source than Bespinben, but I have some suggestions too.

I also suffer from this problem. I have no motivation on actual schoolwork, and I am completely out of it during class. I am really good at not getting caught while slacking off (I can hear someone walking from the far end of the hallway and switch my screen, even if they're trying to sneak up on me), but I can't put any of that motivation and awareness into doing homework.
I know I should be working, but I still won't because, well, I just won't. Later, I'll get annoyed at myself for not focusing because I know I could do better.

Well, on to solutions. All of these just work for me, so I'm not sure if they'll help you.
1. Be nice to other people. If I'm nice to other people, just the thought of me somehow making them feel a bit better makes me feel better as well. This doesn't in any way mean that I don't mean what I say. I still find the best things in a person's work, and I just skip the negatives.
2. Write something. If I write something, or just come up with a story, I can use it to get rid of my distractions. That's probably why you'll see me writing fantasy stories, because computers don't exist.
3. Read a book. Reading lets me pretend I'm someone else in a different situation. It gets kind of hard if you've read so many books that you can tell the plot twist half way through, but there will always be new and original books to read.
4. Interact with other people. Just being with someone and talking with them makes me feel better about my grades and how I'm doing.

I don't know if this helped, but these are what works for me. I hope you all can feel a bit better, and I want to thank you for helping me feel better as well.

Quote from: Nebbles on May 07, 2015, 07:20:05 PMI'm beginning to worry about myself.

I'm getting way too like... sad about school. Like, I'm sick of feeling tired and sad and bad about myself because of a bad grade. I think it's past just laziness, I don't know. I can't motivate myself anymore. I'm worried about doing horribly on everything because I can't study for shit.

I might actually have some kind of anxiety or depression issue. That just... scares me...

I was like that in my old school and nothing seemed to work at all. Then I just transferred while studying nearly the same thing, but with more math (odd, since it was one of the things bothering me in the old school) and I stopped feeling bad about things. Not sure why, maybe living closer to home worked.

Now I'm rethinking about applying to graduate school in Rutgers xD

You're right.
I can't talk for Nebbles and I don't know what she is anxious/depressed about, but my depression is usually caused by loneliness/no friends/boredom etc......and I get stressed out when I'm depressed because I'm anxious about being depressed.
Yes, it's a vicious cycle :p

And the worst part is that these^ things can sometimes cause me to have sudden anger outbursts.....which you may or may not find on the forums somewhere ;)

I think I might have a Trojan or some other spyware on my computer. Sometimes when I'll be on normal sites like here and YouTube (on chrome), suddenly a new window will pop up in internet explorer instead. IE is my registered default browser for my computer, but I only ever use chrome (but sometimes I'll have them both open at once). My internet also runs super slow at times and it's hard to get anything done.

I mean, I'm not a techie but:

What's your OS and/or security program (if you have one)? Windows 8, for example, first step would be to run a (full) scan in windows defender, and follow instructions if it finds anything. Beyond that, I'm afraid I can't be of much help.

I've got windows 7 with the default Microsoft Security Essentials lol. I've tried running a full scan a bunch of times but it takes too long and never finishes--I've run it up to 6 hours before. I've tried all kinds of other scans but it never finds anything.

Earlier it did find something and I told it to remove it, but it didn't seem to make any difference on my current problem. Idk if that was a whole separate thing or if it hid itself from the removal process

I don't know if this is the problem, but if you have one browser as the default, but use another, certain types of links will open in the default browser. If the windows are popping up completely randomly (without you clicking on anything), then I would be concerned.

Does it open anything in particular, or just the homepage?  Weird browser behavior can often mean some sort of adware but that's a very vague problem description.  You can always just run a malwarebytes (install specifically that program if you don't have it) scan to start off.

If it keeps coming back you probably have something nasty installed that will take some extra work to get rid of.  Possible, just a pain in the ass.  There are generally some good tutorials once you figure out what it is.

It opens up to a generic ad, one with lots of "CLICK HERE"'s and "Free Download!"'s, you get the idea. I had the terrible luck on another computer of installing more viruses when trying to download a protection program...so I'm trying to limit my downloads right now lol

I don't have any unusual extensions on Chrome (unless adblock causes ads??), and I don't think it's specifically something wrong with Chrome since it's affecting IE too. Thanks for the help, but I'm probably going to keep trying to get a goddamn full scan to complete before I end up giving this to some tech company to fix

Be careful about going to a company to fix a bug or virus. Ask for a free scan if they offer it, but if they find something, do not pay for them to fix it without getting the opinions of people you trust. They'll charge you so much more than necessary. Many times, they just run a billion antivirus programs on it and it solves itself. I worked for a place that did this, and it was ridiculous how easy it was to fix the problems.

All the buses are sold out. Even flights tripled in fares.

We are taking Amtrak to Philly then taking SEPTA to Trenton and NJ transit to NYC.

It's all free since both SEPTA and NJT are honoring our tickets.

For depression, try to get a some kind of goal to look forward to, a reason to live if you will. I was in a similar situation in 8th grade and going back and reading my diary, I somehow stayed optimistic by basically dedicating my life to learning how to arrange music and looking forward to finally being able to make friends in high school. Thus, I'd recommend the same to you. Find some big, grandiose goal you're really passionate about and put all your energy into it (whether it be about music/league/magic/whatever else you're into) and then pick some some benchmark in your future (at this point, moving out to college) and tell yourself things will get better then (and trust me, they probably will.)

As for your current situation:
1. Stay in touch with your dad. Play video games/talk with him over the internet or something.
2. Eh, not much you can do about your friend. Missions can be a bitch.
3. If you're friends leave you then they're an asshole, which is one asshole less you have in your life.
4. Moving to Utah might be a great way to start over.
5. I know when you're depressed you want to stay up late and sleep in to avoid everyone, just make sure you're getting enough sleep.

I have felt completely alone for the majority of my life... It's awful, but it's not the end of the world. You do learn a lot about yourself in the process.
For me, it wasn't friends leaving, it was never having friends in the first place (not sure which is worse :-\) But TRUST ME when I say this: things get better. It is hard to lose friends, it is hard to leave your family, but it will get better in time. You will make new friends (especially if you are going to have roommates in college), you will meet a lot of people. (You are going to BYU right? Plenty of women looking for a husband there ::)) Things get SO MUCH BETTER after high school, I can't emphasize that enough. Once you move out and leave your family, you find out who you really are. What you've been taught by your parents will either stay with you or it won't, and that is your choice. It's quite liberating, to be honest. You move to a place where nobody knows who you are and you can completely change yourself. You can shave your head, get a pet, skip class, become a vegetarian, dye your hair black, drink soda every day, eat pop-tarts for dinner, and no one is going to stop you. It's all up to you.

But as for right now, my advice for you is to find a new hobby that you can do by yourself. At least that's what I did to pass the time when I was alone. Play video games, play piano, make art, ride a bike, learn a language, do some gardening... Find something that interests you and fill your time with it. You will pass time with something you like and you could learn something valuable that could help you later. That's how I got good at video games when I was a kid.

Try not to get discouraged. One thing I love that my bf told me is this: "We can't change the hand we are dealt, but our goal is to figure out why." I have asked myself many MANY times why the things in my life happened this way, and it was all to make me a better person. I have been alone my whole life, it has made me a kind and thoughtful person. I met my boyfriend, now I have more self-esteem than ever, and I have let go of my shyness a bit more. I've lived away from my family for 4 years, now the time I spend with them is so much more precious. I've come to realize that these changes are only for either improving myself or to learn a lesson.

Sorry for the wall of text - just typed out my thoughts. I hope this helps in some way :I

I just read the responses from everyone regarding Noc, and it made me remember why I love this community so much. We may fight occasionally but at the end of the day we're still a big, albeit somewhat dysfunctional, family.

Coming from a similar place like Noc, my high school career was riddled with episodes of depression and just general feelings of worthlessness. I've actually never told anyone this before, but at one point during the end of my sophomore year, I came very close to attempting suicide. But something stopped me. One of my acquaintances from school texted and asked if I wanted to hang out with them. I went along and did it, and now that guy is one of my best friends. I made so many friends that summer and realized that I had more people in my life that cared about me that now I look back at myself and almost laugh.

The other thing that kept me going was actually NSM. I was in the midst of actively writing TGNSMPA, and the interactions with everyone here on NSM made me realize that there were other people out there like me going through similar things in life.

I guess what I'm saying is that NSM may be toxic at times, but for the vast majority of times it's hard to find a better online community out there. And Noc, I know what you're going through. I promise you it gets better. Whatever it is, know that I, along with NSM as a whole, are here for you, even if we don't always see eye to eye. If everything doesn't blow over with time, and you're still feeling down, promise that you'll see someone. It could be just a rough patch, but if it isn't you really need to get help immediately. And by the way, there's nothing wrong with showing a little emotion now and again ;) you're human, after all.

Hey guys. I know I haven't been around lately but I need support.

I graduated last week with a degree in photography and I feel like I didn't learn shit. My teacher posts the "best in show" on the website and I had one fucking photo. One. Others had 4 or 5. To top it off my school does a little magazine that all media arts students contribute to. I submitted two pieces and neither got accepted. Others had, again, 4 or 5. I feel fucking pathetic. I'm a shitty photographer and my teacher knew that, I could feel his disappointment in me. I showed him a photo one day with an overexposed sky and he said "by now that shouldn't be a problem". So basically, what the fuck are you doing Jordan an amateur could do this. I just... I feel worthless, guys. Like I'm going nowhere. My photography is shit. I'm shit. I can't draw either. I know you guys like my drawings but God forbid I could draw anything original. I have zero talent and college was the biggest waste of my time.

Do you think your pieces are good, and that they are unjust towards you? Or do you feel like other people in your class make better pieces? In case, you might want to check out other artists/Photographer, and maybe lessons on internet, to get inspiration and see if there are some techniques/motifs you didn't know about.

ETF, I definitely feel the same way with my art... Feels like all my stuff sucks and I'm no good. Some people have to work harder than others, especially at art, and I'm one of them.  I'll try to give you some advice... Hope it helps.
1 - Don't compare your work to others. Your work is unique and meaningful in its own way and this is the best way to get discouraged.
2 - Accept others criticism and don't take it personally. When others judge or critique your work, they are not judging you (I know it can feel that way sometimes) they are judging your art, the composition, lighting, layout, etc. Try to improve/fix the piece if you can, or see what you can do to improve your next piece
3 - Keep practicing. It's hard and it sucks, especially when you think you aren't good, but don't give up! Take a thousand photos if you have to. They say it takes 10,000 hours to master something, so keep working at it.

Do you think you could post some of your photos? I'd like to see them :)

Reminds me about the time when I tried composing music. I usually picked out a theme that I thought sounded nice, .. but I didn't get anywhere from there, so what I was left with was a bunch of short themes. I tried really hard to continue them, but it didn't just work. And that's why arranging video game themes is much more fun :), because then I don't need to composed anything original, but instead make the best out of the music already composed, and I can still be a bit creative in some parts if I feel that it enhances the arrangement.

ETF, as a fellow student of the creative arts, let me assure you that most people feel like shit in comparison to their peers. There's a guy in my year who came to college already a professional-tier film composer. And I'd go into collegium every week, and see his work, and the work of others, and think "What the fuck am I doing with my life? I'm so far behind!" But then I remembered that that guy has been working with Logic and the highest quality sound libraries since he was a freshman in high school, and he has a studio in his bedroom, and he was pushed to excel at violin from a very early age. That's not excelling at the curriculum, that's just making improvements on an individual basis. What I realize now is that the curriculum and this individual work are almost completely separate in how they shape you as a creator.

Do you think that your works are terrible? That your skies are overexposed, that the white balance is off, that all of this photography jargon of which I have no knowledge is shit? Good. The curriculum taught you to think that. I can guarantee you without seeing your work that I would still find it visually appealing. I can also say without seeing it that it could still be better. I assure you that your classmates look up to the photography greats and curse themselves for not being better, just as my classmate that I mentioned (nicest guy I've ever met, by the way) looks up to the film scoring greats and thinks the same way.

The only perspective that matters is this: looking back on the last year, the last month, the last week, can you say that you improved? And I'm sure you'll find that the answer is yes. Do yourself a favor and look back at your early works. I recently looked at my portfolio that I submitted to colleges, and nearly gagged. My professor asked me a few weeks ago to pick a piece I'd written to flesh out in pro tools. I couldn't. I am in the constant process of despising my past work. Because I know it could've been better. Because I know now what I didn't know then. The process of simply writing new pieces has given me these realizations, not some arbitrary, surface-level theory education tiered to the common denominator. Your education wasn't wasted if it didn't make into you an expert photographer. It simply gave you tools, tools which take years to learn to use effectively. And if you think that your current works are shit, too, then that's wonderful! It means you have a grasp of how those tools should work, and you just need some more time putting them into practice. Believe me. If you want to become better, you can become better.

Hopefully somewhere within that rant was something helpful. If not, the more coherent advice of earlier posters was right on the money.

DOGGIES!!!! So cute! :)

The photos look great to me. I don't really have much experience on the subject (my only camera is my phone, and I am unskilled at all of the visual arts), but hopefully my situation can be analogous enough to provide a small amount of insight.

First of all, you have your own style. It's creative art, right? Your art is your own, and it's not supposed to be like anyone else's, so why compare?
There is always going to be someone better than you objectively, but that's okay. You are the best at taking your photos.

Second, try not to compare yourself. With anything. Just think about what it is you want to do, and how you will do it. Don't think about how other people will do it, because clones won't work well in real life.

One last question. What kind of trees are those in the last picture. They look awesome and amazing. I want them. Give them to me.

Sorry I lied. This is actually the end. Finishing off with what my Chemical Engineer friend says all the time: "Cs make degrees" meaning that you don't have to be perfect to do well.

Hope this was marginally helpful.

Glad it helped! The photos look pretty good to me, too, though I do wanna add a kind of disclaimer to something hero said:

There is always going to be someone better than you objectively, but that's okay. You are the best at taking your photos.

Part of developing your own style is learning how to imitate those who came before you, and then deciding which of these techniques you will or won't use. As Jonathan Lethem says, "Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void but out of chaos." That is to say, we don't fabricate great ideas in our mind from nothing; our inspirations and influences are undeniably important in the process. In this case, that means that the more influences to which you expose yourself, and which you devote yourself to understanding, the more "chaos" you'll have to draw from. If you like a photographer's work better than your own, then the odds are that there are specific aspects of their process that you might want to emulate. And as you do this more and more, you may find that there are some things you might've done differently even from your favorite photographer, either to achieve a different effect or to achieve the originally intended effect in a "better" way.

(By the way, that Lethem quote is from an article of his in Harper magazine called "The Ecstasy of Influence". It's extremely well written, and I would highly recommend it to anyone entering a creative profession, or anyone dealing with creative professionals, for that matter.)

So my interviewer is an hour late in contacting me on Skype, and odds are he's going to have to reschedule again. He sent an email about 50 minutes ago saying he tried to call me, but it didn't work, despite my telling him before the last failed interview that I would need to do it on Skype because I'm still out of the country without an international phone until Friday. That failed interview, he also made me wait an hour before telling me he had to reschedule. I'm now super late to a dinner reservation I made with friends for my last night in Prague, and I'm going to have to take a cab. Fuck.

When I finally passed that hard Japanese final I thought I wouldn't have to post on this topic for a long time, but I was wrong.

Argh... So today my grandmother took me to the local stores to look for any amiibo that caught my eye. I found a Sonic Amiibo, so I bought it and was about to go home, until she suddenly said "Alright Connor you are driving home", which made me worry sick. Why would I do this you may ask? Well...

I have a HUGE phobia of dying in a car accident, thanks to a stupid, stupid, STUPID PSA my school showed me many years ago that was incredibly graphic to discourage texting while driving. Obviously I know not to do that, but the fact that it was so graphic made me terrified to drive period. You see, while I won't link it in fear of scaring someone else, it was pretty much about stereotypical teenage girls who texted while driving and got into an accident. OK, that makes sense, but then they show an insane amount of blood from the result of the crash, and in the aftermath all of her friends die. That's a bit extreme, but it gets the message across

But the part that scarred me for life was this small scene where the vehicle she hit, driven by parents who were doing everything they were supposed to do got damaged as well, with both parents dying due to somebody else's actions, and their child was crying non stop telling them to wake up. When you see that at 12 years of age that's downright horrifying to see a child cry over the bodies of his dead parents who were normal drivers all because someone ELSE did something bad, and ever since I refused to drive in fear that I would end up like those parents, even if I was an expert driver.

However, my grandmother insisted when I turned 14 that I should drive, since I was of age. So she took me down for a permit test (Where you study and answer questions to get a permit) and I failed at first. When I learned that it wasn't actually law to get a driving permit/license I failed the remaining tries on purpose, hoping to get out of driving, but then my grandmother got upset and told me if I kept failing she would take away every item in my room until I passed, so I had no choice and I studied again, finally passing.

...And then I hid it for two years, never to use it due to my fear until last fall when my grandmother decided to suddenly enroll me in a driver's education course to get my license. Again, I didn't want to go but I was forced to under the threat of "if you don't learn how to drive you'll never get to a job as an adult". Somehow, I passed, but I feel it was due to the fact that my instructor had a brake on his side of the car that he would use whenever he wanted which made me not worry at all.

So I got my license which brings us to today, where in the past few months my grandmother has "surprised" me into driving home from a place she takes me to, since I have to bring my wallet whenever I buy something, I bring the license as well, meaning it's her PERFECT chance to go "OK Connor, drive home and remember the route!" At first it wasn't so bad, as they were short distances with no traffic, and I was getting better!

But today she decided to make it super difficult by forcing me to take a route which would lead me to a four way intersection with many cars nearby. I got very nervous, so I went slow like I usually do (20 MPH is my max speed unless I'm forced to go faster, due to my fear of accidents), only to be yelled at by my grandmother to go faster, due to being on a busier street. Getting upset, I was then told to go to "the lane". Problem is, there were TWO lanes my grandparents took to get home. One was a turn lane and one was a straight lane. I wasn't sure what she meant because she wouldn't specify, calling it "the lane", so I went to the right turn lane where she then screamed at me and said "NO! The other lane!" Which scared me due to the sudden scream and made me almost hit a truck on the left lane, to the point I actually let out the first major curse word in almost ten years. (I rarely swear and even then it's only minor words, this was the first time I used a vulgar word in ages) Yelling at my grandmother for not telling me WHAT lane to choose, she told me I should know the way home, which I countered with me arguing that both lanes take us home, yet she didn't tell me until it was too late that the one I took was the hard route.

Regardless, I slowly made it home and was about to end the horror until she said "OK you didn't do well so go around the neighborhood!" Which made me infuriated as I hate going around the neighborhood, mainly due to so many cars parked on the side of the road, making it hard for me to stay in my lane. As I was almost approaching home again, I waited for her to tell me when to turn my signal on, only for her to never do so. I went right by it and she just said "Oh you missed it", making me MORE mad as it meant I had to drive even longer just because she didn't tell me when the turn was. (And yes I know I should have seen it but I was focused on keeping myself safe that I put too much faith in her) Eventually, I finally got home where the terror ended.

...But seriously, I hate every second of driving. Every time I'm told to drive I argue, hoping that she won't make me fear death on a day I'm supposed to be happy. I've considered shredding my Driver's License a few times to end it, but my subconscious prevents me from doing anything I know was bad. I don't get it, why am I scared of driving despite being 17 years old? Why am I scared of accidents while other kids younger than me have no care in the world? Why did that stupid PSA have to be shown to 12 year old me? I really am unsure what to do. I don't consider them "bad parents" or anything (Quite the opposite, as they along with my father saved me from a crazy mother nine years ago), but it makes me wonder if they even understand my fear of death, especially since I almost died back before they rescued me. I know they love me and that they want me to be safe, but I'm frustrated that they think forcing me to drive will help me get over it.

So yeah, that's a lot I had to say... Sincere apologies if I went on too long, but it really makes me nervous, as driving is something I'm downright terrified about. I'd rather spend money on public transportation or just walk to places instead of driving. How do I fix this stupid phobia? How do I become a normal driver?

Post by: Maelstrom on May 23, 2015, 10:00:41 AM
Well, I can sort of identify with you. You see, I have this horrible phobia of bees. It's completely irrational, but it won't go away. I know that quoting statistics won't help in the least, nor will saying "just get over it."

So, how do you get over it? Chances are, that PSA you saw 5 years ago is not quite as bad as you remember it, despite it seemingly being burned into your mind. Irrational fears have a habit of doing things like that. Keep in mind the PSA was also supposed to be as traumatic as possible to get the message across.

The worst thing about phobias is how they seem to be "confirmed."Every time you see an article in the paper or merge badly (Which I've done quite a few times), that phobia just gets stronger. That's why my phobia of bees/wasps/hornets is so bad today. Remember that texting and driving is illegal in many more states than it was 5 years ago.

Just a tip: I've merged very badly quite a few times. But remember, the driver you didn't see is competent as well. They WILL honk at you if you're going to hit them.

Where do you live? In a big city? In the country? Suburbs?

Note: I've been driving for 2.5 years and love it, but I still hate city driving/busy roads, so don't feel like you are alone in that fear.

I think you should start driving with someone who respects your limits, but tries to slowly increase them. The pressure doesn't help. Even if you've passed a driver ed course, if you don't have the confidence or the will to do it, you shouldn't do it.

 I think it's quite reasonable to have that fear- I'm still quite nervous about controlling a heavy, potentially fatal object at high speeds, but with time, the confidence, control and experience helped me start enjoying it. Sure, there is a chance of dying, but the probability is fairly low. If that fear is still present when doing 5 in an empty parking lot, I'm not too sure what to do. just try not to beat yourself up over it.

I was terrified of driving until I was forced to drive on three different interstates to and home from a location. My gps kept leading me into these crazy highways and I eventually just ignored it and ended up finding a better path, and ever since then I've felt so powerful driving.

I think it's necessary to be a little uncomfortable while driving. If you get to confident or cocky you stop paying attention and miss little details, but if you're nervous then you'll notice everything that's important and you'll have a faster reaction time when needed. Not too nervous of course, but you always need some degree of caution

Or, if this proves to be a lifelong issue for you, just move to a big city. City residents don't really have a need for cars and driving most of the time

yeah actually your driving scenario is pretty typical, it's going to be scary.  It gets easier with practice.  I was terrified to start driving (and also had the geographical sense of a moth) but it really gets a lot easier after a while, it really does.  Just do it some more

Other than that, I don't really have any advice. :-\ I have a phobia that I've been dealing with for years and I don't know how to get over it so I'm afraid I'm not much help :(

I have, but she says it's because I worry a lot in general and therefore I'll eventually grow out of it when I practice more and have faith in myself.



(And I do worry a lot, due to my past even the most stupid of things can terrify me if they remind me of anything that happened when I was there. For example, due to being forced to watch the Chucky movies at six years of age, I'm incredibly terrified of them even as a young adult due to the awful memories I suffer, and I can never be cured as if I even watch a clip of any of those movies I feel like I'm about to have a heart attack for some reason. If those movies ever play in a room I'm in I'll go as far as to try and break the TV or DVD to silence them due to me not wanting to feel the pain I had when I was a child, even if the movies themselves don't bother my friends. Same thing with my aunt when she watches a spider move or sees a spider in a video game, as she has a phobia just as bad when she sees a spider even though they don't bother me. I remember playing OOT once with her around and she screamed when I encountered those spider enemies in the Great Deku Tree despite them not being scary at all to most people. It's weird how the mind works...)

So here's a thing. So a while back I had become good friends with a girl in my year. It was cool, I helped her with Physics and she helped me with Maths. It was a good friendship for both of us. I took her to the ball. No biggy to be honest. It was nice to be with someone and not alone. We danced and had a nice time.

However, then she decided to pronounce her love for me. Tell me that I was tall and crap. I didn't want to lie, so I told her that I didn't reciprocate her feelings. Didn't seem to be too bad (it was over Skype typing, so I don't know whether she broke down, or was enraged etc.). But then the study sessions stopped. We just sorta drifted apart, which made me sad, since I'd lost a valuable friend. But I just went "Well, that's life" and moved on.

BUT THEN, this morning another girl decided to send me this:

x^2 + (y- (thirdroot(x^2)))^2 = 1

Which, as you all would know, is a graph for a love heart.

Furthermore, while I was in India, this graph girl's friend told me that graph girl liked me. At the time I was like "lol no," but now I'm like "Fuck."

Of course, being as smooth as I am, I immediately asked whether graph girl needed y in terms of x, before I realised what the graph is.

Now for all you clueless people wondering "and this is a problem?" please understand my homosexuality. Also, the fact that I'm not out at school (due to mostly laziness and slightly homophobic friends).

This is  really upsetting for me. Especially considering that I have semester one exams in a week. And shit just likes hitting the fan.

So there's my story. Idk what to do. Probably will ignore it until it comes up again.

tldr: Girls be loving me, while I be loving men.

In other news, has anyone else's post editty things gone missing? Like the tool which makes you post images or change font and stuff? I would post an image, but...

If you haven't told anyone and you're not blatantly obvious about your sexuality, then they would have no reason to expect.
and honestly, some people just aren't ready to accept change and know something new about you that they never realized. People lose friends when they come out and it just happens (thank god it is happening a lot less as people are coming to accept it)

My policy is to tell people if asked but to not say anything unless I get pigeonholed into saying.

(and my edity things have disappeared too)

Lost SEVEN out of eight games in Pokemon Regionals today, all of them were very close games. While it was exciting at first it made me incredibly upset in the end thanks to the fact that I let my grandmother down because I never appeared on the stream because I sucked too much, and I feel just shattered. It would be one thing if I was completely annihilated, but in this case I was so close in every game, and the one I won was just due to some lucky RNG on my part, not due to skill so it didn't feel like a win to me... I would have practiced earlier but my stupid home state bans video game tournaments so I barely get the chance to even practice... So I'm unsure what to feel right now, except very upset that I likely disappointed my grandmother and all the friends I told to keep an eye out for me. (Nobody said hi to me over there and I posted that I would show up on nearly every website I go on...)

I don't really know too much about these tournaments, but if you can't practice, the best thing to do is to watch other people play(if you can) and watch what they do or don't do well and apply that in your own play.

State of Iowa bans all video game tournaments that give away prizes due to an anti-gambling law made ages ago. the only exception are those dumb trackball golf games you can find in bars, and it's never been updated. I really hate it. Therefore we can't even have an official tournament in the video game because of the prizes.

They tried to fix it last year but of course it never went anywhere...

But if a reasonable level of skill is involved, it's technically not gambling (of course, I can't speak for the kind of people who would make that sort of decision, and whether they know/care or not)...?

Well this should've popped up on the internet at least once for you, considering it's a pretty popular meme. It's been like, all over social media. It's like one of the main reasons why people pick on Kim Kardashian but ok I guess you guys just pay attention to game-related stuff. And just because you don't get it doesn't mean the world doesn't either, u fokin pickle.

I know about them, but don't actively seek out information (and try to avoid doing so whenever possible!)... news alone isn't enough to educate oneself about the intricacies of them and their daily lives (unless all you do is follow celebrity news :P), hence why I did not get the reference.

I don't actively seek information about them. I follow Buzzfeed and just encounter what's trending on the web and they pop up. Also I overhear these things in my school. I've seen this pic like at least three times but probably because I use social media a lot.

Quote from: FierceDeity on May 21, 2015, 11:28:45 AMSo my interviewer is an hour late in contacting me on Skype, and odds are he's going to have to reschedule again. He sent an email about 50 minutes ago saying he tried to call me, but it didn't work, despite my telling him before the last failed interview that I would need to do it on Skype because I'm still out of the country without an international phone until Friday. That failed interview, he also made me wait an hour before telling me he had to reschedule. I'm now super late to a dinner reservation I made with friends for my last night in Prague, and I'm going to have to take a cab. Fuck.

So I ended up getting this job (which they didn't actually tell me when I was hired; their phrasing was "We'd like to move you to the next stage in the employment process", and that next stage was apparently...employment). And I was supposed to come in for a training session today, which took some planning to schedule because I have an internship that I haven't been scheduling around work yet because my employer hasn't really told me what sort of schedule I'll have. And then today, an hour before we were supposed to be there, I get an email without any explanation that just links to an updated Google Calendar event, in which the event was moved to Wednesday. During my next shift for my internship. So I emailed them within 10 minutes of receiving that notification, asking if any other time could be arranged, and it's been 4 hours and they haven't responded to me.

Of all my fears about regular employment, the last one on the list was "being more professional than my employer".

I've tried rebooting my computer, reverting to factory settings, and even uninstalling and reinstalling the damn thing! AND IT JUST WON'T WORK.

So now I have to sort this all out before I can make arrangements again. Great. :-\

omg i've been having a similar issue. I got hired at this place like a month ago, and they told me that i'd be starting on the 18th of May. It is now June 9th and they still haven't started me.

And you have no idea how painful it was to type this email to my employers without the bolded parts:
QuoteHello,

As we're getting close to tomorrow's training session and it doesn't seem we're going to be able to find a solution on this end (because you're apparently too goddamn incompetent to check your email in the span of OVER AN ENTIRE DAY), I've rescheduled my internship shift (because my supervisor for that actually knows what the fuck she's doing) so that I can make it to [where I work] tomorrow at 3. Which, again, is less than a goddamn day from now, yet you have still shown absolutely no effort toward resolving this issue, or even acknowledging its existence.

BestGo fuck yourselves,
[FD]

I've had my share of HR problems, but I'm not really pushy about it. That's probably a mistake, but then I really get chewed out if I do anything "out of line" really. Frickin' stereotypes.

Also trying to put on weight again since I lost too many opportunities to eat in Hong Kong. Part of the blame is to old sis, who regularly sends me threatening texts about spending money. I feel like going back later this year just to spite her. And eat a lot of cheap sushi and ramen.

I've wanted to get Dark Souls for some time, as I love the concepts, atmosphere, and the fact that it doesn't tell you what to do.
So I asked my mom, as I have to do for all video games.
She said no, because it was "too dark" and the currency were souls. That and the fact that you can't pause the game.
I'm not even sure how much of the stuff I gave her she actually read.

And it's 66% off on steam right now.

I can't wait until I move out.

Tell them that you're feeling ignored. Let them know you don't mean it in an aggressive way (perhaps something like "I know you guys probably don't mean it but  ___"), but that it's how you've been feeling.

What Pianist said could work. Not only would a communal event be a good way to get them together, it would also provide good talking points in later conversations.

^ My childhood is officially over.

It's been one of those days where everything just seems to be annoying. Maybe my anxiety is playing into it a bit, but I haven't been doing much (my family is moving and I'm with a relative for the time being) and I've just been generally irritated and stuff.
Also having relationship problems, which is annoying, and not something I can really do much about at the moment.
And my keyboard is making hardly any sound, so I can't practice much without everyone else being silent.. So, get everyone out of the house, I suppose.
I also went to the old arrangement thread I made for my PMD arrangement and have decided to ditch it (not surprised, just a little irritated. Oh well)
Though, today could be worse. A friend of my older brother's came and he and I nerded out about Bioshock for a while, and I printed off Cohen's Masterpiece. So, not all was bad today. Just one of those days where you want to punch something all day long.. Anxiety is awesome!
Well, tomorow is another day and I'll hopefully make it better. And not let it go to waste, as basically my entire summer has been doing. "This too, shall pass", I suppose.

Thabk God I found this thread. I woke up today and remembered it was my birthday. My life turned into a literal hell. All the damn scars on me are acting up. When I think of my mother, I writhe in beautiful agony. I cry while shaking. Those are the symptoms of life. Suicide is the treatment. If I kill myself, it will do more good. I won't have to be seperated from my mother anymore and all these scars and pain will fade away. I gave up on life and asking me to not suicide is basically beating a dead horse. I thought about this for a couple of years and I made up my mind. Life sucks and that's the truth. I have suffered a lot not only through the loss of my mother but I remember...I remember I was...God. It is so hard to say. Do you know why raped victims commit suicide? It is hard for them to recover from such a traumatizing event and my mothers death didn't help. I never told anyone I was violated. I was too scared, but since my life is over, I am telling you. Please don't make fun of raped and abused victims. You are only harming them more and more. Instead, help them out. Ninsheet, you guys are cool. You are not only about arranging sheets, but also about family. You all know the true meaning of family. Thank you guys so much.  :'(
I love you all, truly.

People do not commit suicide because they know it is a path worth traversing; I believe that the idea is formed and feels persuasive at a time when good judgement is clouded by heavy emotions and dismal feeings of despair. I don't trust you, you don't know what you are doing and it'd be the worst choice.

Compared to how my life is going, it sure would be more painless than having to bear with physical, emotional, and mental pain. Even if I am gone, I'm sure I'll be here in spirit and thanks Train, it means so much and gosh, I'm tearing up right now. I hate being at crossroads, making extremely tough choices that might and will forever change my life. I get what you are saying, but it is just too hard.

Basically, I'm living a lie, but put on a happy face so everyone thinks I'm fine.

Kinda sad, haha.
I'm so sorry to here that. At least you have parents that love you and close friends who care about you. Besides NinSheet, I have no one to love. No one to personally talk to. No one to hug when I'm scared or cry with when I'm sad. No one to jump for joy in happiness or no one to talk about my feelings personally. I am a loner, I am depressed, I have been raped, I have no education, I have no life, and I am lonely, forever lonely. Although, you guys are that tiny piece of hope left in me, over time, it will fade away.

No, I just can't. I will not allow those professionals to talk with me, ever. I hate them with a burning passion. All they do is reopen the wound and I can't stand them. I really appreciate the help, honest, but I would rather stay depressed forever than talk to those idiots.

Why would you want to kill yourself? You have a pretty good life. See that roof over your head? Notice how it's a comfortable temperature? Your belly full of food? That bed you sleep in? Plenty of people would kill to have a life like yours, and yet you're willing to just throw it away? Do you not realize how fortunate you are? Oh, no one likes you? What about the people who tolerate you enough to try and stop you from hurting or killing yourself? Your life is fine, so shut up about how bad you think it is!

All right, let me jump in here with this whole "but you do you really have it that bad??" argument that I detest so much.

Never, ever do that. You are going to end up invalidating whatever the person is feeling. Just because someone supposedly has it worse, doesn't mean that other people are allowed to suffer. So what if people have it worse? Does their suffering suddenly become nullified because some people off in different areas have it worse? Is their pain, their trauma, all irrelevant? You shouting at someone who's suffering is not going to help. If someone is hurting, listen to them. Let them speak their peace, let their feelings be recognized and validated. Don't you dare undermine someone's suffering in an attempt to make them feel like they shouldn't be sad because "someone has it worse".

Alright guys let's dial it back a bit. Tensions are high and let's not let this turn into a case of "I can out pity you". Because that doesn't solve anything. Maya, you have a network of people here who are already willing, and trying, to cheer you up and help you out of your depression. I suggest if you keep talking with these lovely people in a private medium, like PMs or in a chat room, and not in a public space like this as it's now starting to border on spam. I don't mean to discourage your desire to talk or anything, because clearly you want to talk, but when a line of conversation devolves into two parties saying the same thing over and over, it's technically spam, and it clutters the forum.

Dude, guilt shaming someone for their depression is just uncool.

K woah, woah, woah, woah, woah! First, everyone calm down. I don't know what crime was committed that warrants personal attacks.

You should all know also that this is more than self pity but actual depression in its purest form. This is real and if anyone doesn't understand it then they should think before saying anything. Cuz I had a friend going through the exact same thing and let me say that it was basically this same thing word for word. Let's discuss civilly instead of just yelling our heads off and calling ppl names, alright fellas?

That all being said, I really do think therapy should be looked into. Only because I've seen it work and I know it works and in a case like this, it's rather necessary I'd say.

You have every right to complain about your life, and you have every right to have people help comfort and console you. However, therapy is a much better place to do this, especially in situations involving rape. While everyone (erm, mostly everyone) here wants to help you, none of us are qualified to handle actual trauma to the degree you have it. Think of it like an injury: if you broke your leg, it'd be pretty awesome if you could have a group of best friends treat it, however, I'm not sure how well you'd recover if you let them treat it rather than a doctor.

Just a forum etiquette tip, sometimes it's better to edit your posts rather than make multiple in a row. There are exceptions to this, including certain forum games and etc.

Also, it's really easy to blame yourself for everything. [should be avoided, but also avoid blaming others for everything once you get past that first part.]
You should think about the thoughts you have about yourself, and if they aren't productive, replace them with something else. It's not an easy process but self-awareness is a tool that should be used by people more often (myself included.)

An example would be: "I'm awful at this, and doing it makes me feel bad." Is that thought productive? It depends on the context; if you're playing a game that you don't have to play, then you can do something about it. If it's doing something healthy like exercising or eating properly, then maybe it's time you try other strategies that don't make you feel as bad, so you can continue to improve.

Is blaming yourself productive? Well, it might make you look better to other people, but then you feel worse. A more optimal method with alternate phrasing could be accepting responsibility for your actions, and use that to 1. Make it clear you aren't blaming them like in the previous method, and 2. Feel better about yourself, not because it's your fault and you accept that, but because you are taking responsibility for your actions by accepting the consequences.
Also, you shouldn't take responsibility for everything, because everything is not your responsibility.

I think it depends on how clean the raw eggs are themselves? I know there's something to it.

More on the source than anything.  For example, if you get eggs from your own backyard or from friends who just sell a few eggs to friends, it's nuch less likely that you will get any food borne diseases than from a large operation.

A rant is coming....: Why the heck is Bonetail so fricking hard?!!!! I've spent 3 fricking hours just dying and trying to attempt the damn pit! After 3 fricking hours, I finally made it to fricking the 100th floor and I tried to battle Bonetail! He is too overpowered god dang it!!!! What must a girl do beat that fricking boneless dragon!! I mean 200 hundred fricking HP? Even the Shadow Queen was more bearable than this pathetic excuse for a dragon! 2 defense and 8 attack damange every fricking turn! Fricking breaths that always puts ailments?!!! Though I have to admit, I always sucked at guarding.... You know, this boss is just a pathetic waste of my time and I am still wondering why I spent 3 fricking hours constantly dying in this pit to face that little mother............. And when I got him down to 20 hp, he healed....twice!!! Fricking 20 HP and that is not fricking fair because I am so fricking so close to death with only 1 life shroom and a jamming jelly! This boss makes me want to just go get my TV and smash it on the fricking floor. And guess what I got for beating this guy....ONE FRICKING STAR POINT! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( Although that Return Postage was worth it!  :)

Haven't played Paper Mario but I know that the reward for defeating really hard bonus-bosses often are really small and worthless. Since they are optional you won't get anything necessary or really rewarding since they are so tough to defeat. A prime example is Final Fantasy XII:

After you defeat the most difficult boss in the game Yiazmat, which requires you to have close to best gear in the game, have your characters at the close to the highest level in the game, and have a superb strategy of gambits(the game's battle system). And even if you have that, the boss still takes over an hour to defeat, 50-60 minutes if you're an expert. And after you defeated the second hardest boss Omega Mark XII, which is easier but still really really hard. And after completing a fishing mini-game. THEN you get a Sword, in fact The Strongest Sword in the game. Which is all really cool and nice but... what are you going to use it against... the final boss!?? He's a piece of cake compared to Yiazmat and Omega Mark XII.
You can only have it in your inventory as a trophy of clearing the hardest bosses in the game, basically.

So y, hard bosses doesn't give you that much of a reward often. It's mostly about pride/bragging about how good you are.

Oh dear. This might take some explaining.

The user you quoted, King Sammer, is among the most notorious users ever to grace the NSM forums. Spam-tastic, immature, and needlessly hounding random users to his heart's content, he often crossed the line in terms of forum etiquette on more than one occasion, which eventually resulted in a permaban (as far as I know) from the forums. Now, I can't say whether or not he was actually suicidal (he did create his own forum with at least 30 users that, as far as we could tell, were all him multiple times), but that post in particular seemed like an attempt to get us to let him stick around. It was certainly not out of character for him.

Well Sammer, if you're still around and reading this, know that you are special and if you were/are really considering suicide, don't. We had our disagreements and we did what we thought was right by us, but you have meaning and a purpose. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you're not worth anything, because you are worth more than you could imagine. It just takes some time to find where you belong. I hope you have learned from your experiences and will mature into a great friend to others.

We had a bedbug scare two years ago and we made kefka clean the place us. That was the first time someone tried to throw out my piplup doll D: but now I think it's gone for good because I haven't seen it for a while. Wahhh...Also we didn't actually have bedbugs. I read somewhere bed bugs were really attracted to histamine in combination with a few other unspecified pheromones. Since it's pheromones they're attracted to, they don't develop a resistance. Soon we might have some cheap traps instead of tossing everything in the dryer...also it's the reason more people should study bugs.

At least I got it -.- I mentioned before that once I felt an itch on my foot while I was sitting and scratched it without looking. My fingers came up bloody and I freaked out. Then I saw I had slashed a mosquito in half that was in the middle of biting me. That was terrifying...

Also I tried that paper cut thing and it worked. Even though it didn't help me find the cut...the soap did D:

So my friend and I have been apartment hunting for the past month or two because we were tired of student housing and kept hearing good stories from everyone about how comparatively cheap they were getting off campus apartments. We finally found one we really liked about a week ago, and jumped right on the opportunity, thinking we'd be backed with my friend's family friend in Connecticut as the guarantor, as they'd agreed to do so. But they dropped out last minute, and we got rejected.

So now, we've been having to apply with my parents (who only make half as much as they'd need to be our guarantor) and his parents (who live in Panama) as potential guarantors, and the place we're currently applying to is asking for the whole year's rent in advance. And it's turning out to actually be more expensive than student housing.

Fuck.

I'm fairly certain someone in my building is running an airbnb out of his/her overpriced apartment. There are different people coming in and out of the building, sometimes with suitcases. If all else fails, my friend is a decent landlord and owns a few places in Queens. Also I know people who aren't violent mobsters so maybe as a last resort...

Also, a lot of people in my building (mostly old, me included) live in rent stabilized apartments. You're far from running out of options. I think demanding  a year of rent upfront is out of the question and you should take it to the city...I'm always trying to sock it to the landlord, the bastard with a bad tan, so go ahead and complain to the city about possible violations.

Oh the joys of apartment hunting. I've got 5 more months in my current one until they kick me out. Need to find a suitable replacement by then.

Of course every available apartment is 1) smaller 2) more expensive 3) further away from work. So I'm not really looking forward to moving out.

Speaking of apartments, I'm going to be living with roommates (read: strangers) for the first time in my life... 3 other girls in my apt, each with their own room. The thing is, I don't get along with other girls that well... It's just hard to relate to them because I'm not "girly" at all... I would say I act lady-like, but I'm into cars and motorcycles and video games which I'm assuming none of them will be. Guess I'll find out in the next couple weeks.

At least I'll be on the top floor with a view of Utah Lake :)
And rent will be about $50 cheaper

The problem is, the landlord isn't officially asking for it. It's being moderated by brokers, and since we were initially rejected due to our guarantor situation, our broker suggested offering that ourselves, considering we're likely to be rejected from most apartments in our situation (and have been thus far)

And ultimately, we're able to pay it; it caused some serious sticker shock with my parents, but they've been saving up for situations like this, and we would've had to pay just as much in the long run anyways, so it's not an unbearable burden.

Highly unwise to pay that much rent upfront.  You become much more susceptible to a sketchy landlord and/or dubious apartment conditions that when not properly dealt with you would normally have the option of withholding rent to ensure resolution.  Many other related issues as well.

I know, it was my favorite cartoon as a kid. It was funny, but also had some parts that were really sweet. Also, Perry is my spirit animal.

Quote from: Hero of Trains on August 11, 2015, 07:39:20 PMWhat!? Phineas and Ferb ended! How?! I mean, the kid I interrogated at the pool said so, but I chose not to believe him. How is this possible? That show has been going on for as long as I can remember!  The last episode was really good though. But whyyyyyyy?!
P+F is easily my favorite kids' show ever, a lot of what they did was unique and really funny.  For example, watch season 3 and count how many times Phineas says "Swampy Marsh".  Povenmire and Marsh would probably run the show by just themselves if they could.  At least there are still 2 more seasons to put on Netflix for me...  I'll miss the show, I love watching it.

Well it's finally over... After 3 years together, my boyfriend and I have split up... He moved to California, and I moved here to Orem Utah to go to school. He took our dog too, and I miss them both so much :'( It was a mutual breakup, at least, neither of us really wanted to, but it might be better this way... He's the only guy I've dated and I don't want to regret not having dated anyone else if he and I were to get married.
Anyway, I don't really know where to go or what to do from here... Just take it one day at a time I guess. I'm not sure how much or how little I'll be around here in the next few weeks while my broken heart recovers. :'(

I'm sorry it had to end like that (though I suppose it could've ended worse), breakups are just sucky in general.
The best advice I can give is to make sure you can be happy whilst single; so, essentially just don't go looking for another person to replace him (but I'm sure that comes as common sense to you ^.^). Again, you probably already knew that.

Being tactful means that you can say what you want to without ruffling anyone's feathers. It can take some practice (I'm not always good at it either) but most of it is just carefully considering the facts of the situation and the emotional states of the people involved.

In this case, Zeldafan had stated that their breakup was due to them moving far away from each other, and that neither one really wanted to break up, but they felt that it would be better for their continuing friendship (correct me if I'm wrong). She was also upset, because she cared for him. Therefore, your statement of
Quote from: ThatGamer on August 16, 2015, 09:02:35 AM3 years??? Neither of you realized you didn't like each other before then?
was somewhat offensive. A better way of putting it would have been something like "3 years? You must have really gotten to know him well in that time. It must be hard having to lose someone you're close too."
Actually, that's similar to the second half of your post, so not everything was bad about it! But it could have been better if the first part was removed.

Quote from: ZeldaFan on August 16, 2015, 08:24:42 AMWell it's finally over... After 3 years together, my boyfriend and I have split up... He moved to California, and I moved here to Orem Utah to go to school. He took our dog too, and I miss them both so much :'( It was a mutual breakup, at least, neither of us really wanted to, but it might be better this way... He's the only guy I've dated and I don't want to regret not having dated anyone else if he and I were to get married.
Anyway, I don't really know where to go or what to do from here... Just take it one day at a time I guess. I'm not sure how much or how little I'll be around here in the next few weeks while my broken heart recovers. :'(

Bahh :( Can't say I've been in exactly the same boat but I've been only *thinking* about someone for 5 years ._. >_>

Wait, why does he get the dog?

Well Nintendo PR claimed to have placed me on the review lists for two upcoming games for me to review, and both of said games are being given to seemingly all reviewers but me despite them telling me that I was put on the list. This is the second time this happened (First was Splatoon) and I'm really, really nervous they'll forget me again and sweep me under the rug despite the good reception my last review for them got from the PR company. Last time it happened my grandfather also got really mad and banned me from buying Splatoon at launch (thinking a "boycott" would make them change their minds when the PR company has nothing to do with game sales) so I'm also nervous he'll find out and ban me from getting Super Mario Maker with my own money. Gah... I'm so stressed beyond belief and I have nobody else to really talk to or vent about it

Google "PR"

"Public relations (PR) is the practice of managing the spread of information between an individual or an organization (such as a business, government agency, or a nonprofit organization) and the public."

An incredibly stupid reason. Basically because I didn't get the review copy my PR rep told me I would get (Because I was on the list) I got a bit frustrated and my grandfather noticed (Popping into my room to see what I was doing like always) so he became even more upset than I ever did, basically telling me stuff like "you can't spend your saved money on it, those jerks were cruel to you" and blowing it way out of proportion. I certainly know it wasn't an act of being mean, it just was some sort of unfortunate occurrence that they never explained to me for some reason. I've reviewed games for many other companies and sometimes things like this happen on rare occasions but in those cases they give me a reason and if it's website related (Like they think my site is too small) they tell me and I use that to work hard on improving my site. Nintendo PR did absolutely none of that and told me "we ran out" and nothing else.

I did get a review copy for Dr Mario Miracle cure so thankfully he lifted that stupid ban of his, but unfortunately at that point my funds were spent towards the Wave 4 amiibo on launch day instead so I never got to save for Splatoon at launch thanks to his stupid reasoning. I'm more excited for Super Mario Maker than I was with Splatoon so I'm determined to just buy it even if I can't get a review copy of it, as long as my grandfather doesn't ban me again...

Going into reviewing with the idea of free games is a terrible idea. I do it to give feedback straight to the developers and publishers, which is why I got frustrated that Nintendo seems to be strange when it comes to giving me copies I was told I would be getting earlier. Before Splatoon it also happened with Kirby and the Rainbow curse when they told me they had a copy ready for me and wanted my site address again, and when I sent it they went dead silent and told me later "we ran out" (It was worse IMO since they HAD my copy but somehow ran out or something?). I hate those three words in particular as I find it hard to believe you can run out of digital codes

Well today I got my official word back, and the rep I have for this week (My main one is away for the week...) told me to contact my other rep when he returns since he's the one who put me on the review list, despite me having forwarded the proof of me being put on the review list in the first place.  One week of waiting and by then I fear the review copies really will be gone at that point... Gah, I don't understand how other reviewers get copies of games they don't even ask for sometimes from NOA PR while I have difficulty getting any of them... I still work on reviews and my videos regardless of the outcome, but that doesn't mean I'm not frustrated.

I propose a contest in which nobody is allowed to post for the next 6 hours otherwise you will get banned for 6 years; unless you can write a 6 page essay educating us on the merits of proper shuffleboard maintenance, in which case I will lift the ban.

Great find. ;P


To keep with the theme of the topic, I've been feeling slightly more irritable after I finished reading Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It's a great book, but it's made me more aware of how I act around certain people vs. how I want to act around those people (especially people who normally upset/irritate me, whether intentionally or not), and that is disturbing me (completely unrelated to what's currently going on in the forum).

Mostly so I can use the gym and library and continue using their mental health resources.

I hate to say this, but having a degree doesn't exactly guarantee that you'll know what to get into. XD I don't know how many times I've changed my mind, but I think I've got it this time.

Waste your life being a full time composer on nsm!

It's always good to take as many courses as you can. Even if you don't really know what you want to do, you'll have experience for everything. I have no idea what to take in high school, or what job to get, but signed up for everything for good experience.  ;)

That's good, but there's just one problem...

In college you have to PAY for every class you take, usually hundreds of dollars.
In high school, sure, you can take all kinds of classes, but not in college. Also high school doesn't give you much of a choice (should I take weight lifting or running...?) But in college you have quite a few classes you can take (Bowling 1, Basics of Scuba Diving, Rock Climbing) but again, you have to pay for them.

If your muscles are cramping, you're probably holding a lot of tension in your hands. Come to the piano, lay your hand completely flat, no support at all, just flat on the keys.
Slowly arch the wrist and raise the fingers in the most relaxed manner possible.
Congratulations, you should now be able to feel the difference. A good test is to have someone hit your arms up while you're playing, and see how far your arms come up. They should come up quite a ways, probably to the music rack on an upright (about the top of the lid on a grand).
Hopefully that helped a bit.

I didn't get stuck anywhere. I was actually doing great. I was about to plant the beans in soft soil at Outer Garden in Deku Palace. But then I saved as I had two minutes left on the clock. And then I realized I had to start over again because I couldn't figure out how to stop the moon from destroying the earth. Couldn't find the damn moon tear so I could reach the top of the clock tower in clock town...played for 20 hours and now have to start over from mask salesman...

I'd suggest giving the game one more try with this knowledge in mind. And maybe a walkthrough. Then you have my permission to never think about the game again.

They actually tell you that in the game...

And, on a different note, I unfortunately haven't exactly been having the greatest day today- my day has been filled with occasional diarrhea and related intestinal issues (probably the dying remnants of my earlier illness :P). I haven't been able to leave the house, so we're planning to do some things after I'm all better.

tbh I would consider any game that doesn't have a competitive aspect to be relatively casual.  You can play those games casually too, but that term is much more broad than ONLY MOBILE GAMES CAN BE CASUAL

"I see what you mean" doesn't really sound like a proper response in this situation. Unless you looked into the subject privately, I didn't say anything that you could have seen and agreed with. Also, difficulty isn't a defining feature for a casual game. There are better definitions out here, but essentially a casual game is just a game you can play "casually." It may be easy, but not being difficult isn't really a feature, it's more of an outcome.

But if I do that I'll only have, like, five friends left in my life. One of whom lives here but goes to college ten hours away. Three of whom live in other states entirely and I met through the Internet. And the last one doesn't really text or talk very often.

Not worth it to keep them. It's generally better to have online friends who treat you better instead of friends around you who treat you like shit.

Most of that is Ramsey over dramatizing it. He's made so over-the-top that people come back and see it. It seems inhumane but it's really just basic marketing.
He's a bit of an ass in real life (he was on I think Conan O'Brien's show and was a major ass when they made scrambled eggs), though, so obviously not completely fake  ::)

Those are a bunch of chauvinistic asshole who bully Raj just because they are fucking assholes. Those shit's should shut the hell up and stop giving Raj the attitude.

You do know that reality TV isn't real, right? It's practically scripted, and some people adopt roles just so that producers have to keep them on longer. I haven't seen the clip, but it's probably just being dramatized so they can get more views and publicity.

IMO the reason a lot of people don't find family guy funny is because it relies a lot on shock value.
I like it and American Dad because of that, but I also think the Simpson's humor has much more thought put into it.

Dude with all due respect calm the fuck down. Even if she's lying about her gender, it doesn't really matter as long as that's not hurting anyone. There's even a possibility she's trans or genderqueer and just likes being called by female pronouns. In any case, she's made it very clear she wants to be referred to as a girl, and I don't care what the situation is, you adhere to that.

Post by: TheDreamingHawk on August 26, 2015, 04:11:31 PM
Well frick my life just got a lot more frustrating... So I mentioned earlier how much I can't stand driving, mainly due to a big phobia I have of getting injured or losing my life in a potential accident due to a stupid PSA I was shown many years ago in school. Therefore I deliberately try and avoid driving by leaving my license at home so I can't drive back from the local mall (where my grandmother tries to make me practice since it's close) along with not mentioning it at all in hopes that she forgets. After a frustrating incident where I almost hit a truck due to my grandmother's non-stop yelling at me to do this and that when driving slowly on a four way intersection, I never wanted to drive again, and for the past 3 months I have been successful due to me not bringing it up as often and also by not going to the mall this summer. Well, sadly today I was made to drive home again but before I get into that, I'll explain another issue I now have that came out of nowhere.

Today I went to my local mall to go to Gamestop so I could preorder Super Mario Maker (I was scheduled to get a review copy for my website but my PR rep didn't give it to me so I decided to preorder it even though I honestly would have had it by now, in case you wondered what the final result of that deal was...), and immediately the first thing my grandmother says is "oh hey my grandson would love to work here he's knowledgeable about games could he do that?" when I told her many times I do NOT want to get a job just yet, not until after I graduate from high school next year so I could get something that isn't embarrassing. The Gamestop manager actually came and gave me an employee form to fill out in two weeks so I could work there for random shifts twice a week or so, and I refused to take it because I really don't want to work just now, and also because several classmates of mine have told me that Gamestop is one of the worst places to work at besides Walmart and fast food places. So now I'm stuck with an application I must fill out and I really don't want to do a job. Not because I don't want to lose time playing video games or writing stories (I already lose time by writing reviews in my free time), but mainly because I'm scared if I work somewhere like that I'll either get a worse reputation among my classmates or get nervous about doing everything perfectly for them. So I don't know, while it's probably better than any fast food place I just don't want to think about doing that kind of job yet.

However, now we get back to my drive home. It's been three months since I last drove the car, and this time I tried to not worry about anything, and pulled out of the parking lot slowly but surely, only to get nervous at multiple points, making my Grandmother yell at me every time I did so. Those included:

-Stopping at every intersection in the neighborhood areas even if there was no stop sign due to my fear of people passing the red light

Quote from: TheDreamingHawk on August 26, 2015, 04:11:31 PMWell frick my life just got a lot more frustrating... So I mentioned earlier how much I can't stand driving, mainly due to a big phobia I have of getting injured or losing my life in a potential accident due to a stupid PSA I was shown many years ago in school. Therefore I deliberately try and avoid driving by leaving my license at home so I can't drive back from the local mall (where my grandmother tries to make me practice since it's close) along with not mentioning it at all in hopes that she forgets. After a frustrating incident where I almost hit a truck due to my grandmother's non-stop yelling at me to do this and that when driving slowly on a four way intersection, I never wanted to drive again, and for the past 3 months I have been successful due to me not bringing it up as often and also by not going to the mall this summer. Well, sadly today I was made to drive home again but before I get into that, I'll explain another issue I now have that came out of nowhere.

Today I went to my local mall to go to Gamestop so I could preorder Super Mario Maker (I was scheduled to get a review copy for my website but my PR rep didn't give it to me so I decided to preorder it even though I honestly would have had it by now, in case you wondered what the final result of that deal was...), and immediately the first thing my grandmother says is "oh hey my grandson would love to work here he's knowledgeable about games could he do that?" when I told her many times I do NOT want to get a job just yet, not until after I graduate from high school next year so I could get something that isn't embarrassing. The Gamestop manager actually came and gave me an employee form to fill out in two weeks so I could work there for random shifts twice a week or so, and I refused to take it because I really don't want to work just now, and also because several classmates of mine have told me that Gamestop is one of the worst places to work at besides Walmart and fast food places. So now I'm stuck with an application I must fill out and I really don't want to do a job. Not because I don't want to lose time playing video games or writing stories (I already lose time by writing reviews in my free time), but mainly because I'm scared if I work somewhere like that I'll either get a worse reputation among my classmates or get nervous about doing everything perfectly for them. So I don't know, while it's probably better than any fast food place I just don't want to think about doing that kind of job yet.

However, now we get back to my drive home. It's been three months since I last drove the car, and this time I tried to not worry about anything, and pulled out of the parking lot slowly but surely, only to get nervous at multiple points, making my Grandmother yell at me every time I did so. Those included:

-Stopping at every intersection in the neighborhood areas even if there was no stop sign due to my fear of people passing the red light

-Having the one time I did NOT stop on a green light be the time a car happened to turn in front of me and almost hit me, making me panic while grandma screamed directions too fast for me to process

-Going 10 miles per hour EVERYWHERE due to my fear of hitting things if I was too fast

and finally, last but not least: My confusion of the center lanes, since some roads are so poorly made that the center lane and the right lanes aren't even drawn, meaning I have to guess which is the correct one which confuses me and when I'm being yelled at non stop it makes me so upset.

...So I really don't know what to do at this point.

How often do you travel with your grandparents? They are in like every story...

Anyways, a job isn't that bad, honestly, Gamestop is a great place to work at. Plus you will earn some extra money. Heck, I'm only 15 and I have a job, I don't know your age, but Gamestop is a great school for kids around High School age. Don't fret too much about it.  ;)

I live with my grandparents so pretty much everywhere. Still, I'll go and give it a shot if you don't mind it. If I'm almost 18 years old then hopefully it won't be too scary. Still have to find a way to get over the fear of driving sooner or later, however...

I hate to say this, but putting off driving will not make you a better driver.
Just tell your grandparents that you want driving practice and do it in the middle of nowhere or in the town late at night or early in the morning, so you can get used to it without having large amounts of traffic to make you panic.
Phobias are a nasty thing, but they don't go away on their own. Just remember not to take every problem you have as a confirmation of your fear.

Yep idk if this would make you feel better but no one really learns how to drive until they start driving alone when nobody's watching you. That's the point that I started being a good driver. So just grit your teeth and bear it until then, it's the only thing you can do. It's a necessary skill, it's very hard to get along in life without knowing how to drive.

No, it is not a shot to ease your pains. It ends something, something very important, that should not end until its natural course has completed.

Depression is choking me, it is changing my thoughts and it is welling up in me. Why was I born like this? Why must it be me?

I kind of agree with that, I too don't act too much like myself while I'm on here, otherwise there would be a lot of hatred...but what you're saying is, you don't want us to be positive? You would rather have us be cruel? I don't understand...

Out of the 3 off topics I used the most: The rant topic, made mah day, and the post your thought.
the rant topic has been the most intriguing, disturbing, and painful.

Gee, I wonder why?

Lol well lets see...

A. the topic where we talk about how our day has been great!

B. the topic where we talk about whatever is on our minds!

C. the topic where we talk about sad stuff and cry tears of pain...

Going to side with MLF here. This matter is a tad too touchy for public discussion at the moment. I'm not mad at anyone, but would it be possible to move this to a private chat for a while?


In other news, my car's battery died yesterday after work. Glad I live less than a minute away from where I work. If it had died at school though, that'dve been another story...

Threads maya mentioned:

Threads that I happen to step by cause there is where stuff happens and people posts.

and... y there is a lot of stuff happening in those...isn't that what this site is all about?? eh, whatever guess I got to be patient... (and y I get that updaters and other people have their own lives too outside of NSM).

I leave for a few days and everybody seems distressed for some odd reason when I return. Did something bad happen? I don't want to get involved in a personal issue but I have this "Moderator's intuition" of sorts that something really bad happened... (The intuition comes from me being a moderator on my own site and dealing with things like this before, FYI. Not trying to be a backseat mod.) Whatever the case, I really hope nothing bad happened. I know this thread is for discussing issues and frustrations but it seems to me like something that was far worse than that was on here... Do I even want to know?

In other news, I found out the reason I didn't get a Mario Maker review code for my website, because another reviewer who had contacted me on twitter around the time they were being sent out offered to help me get my review copy, so I followed him on twitter to see what the whole ordeal was about. Of course I soon found out he was younger than me and made a wordpress website with reviews copied from IGN with slight edits in order to get free games early. When he didn't get his review copy he started to harass other big reviewers to try and get them to send him their copy of the game, which I told him was unprofessional, only to be blocked. Now the evidence is put together on why Nintendo was a bit cautious on giving me a review copy, considering how the other guy was doing similar things without any intention of reviewing the game. Unfortunate but at least I finally know now, so I decided to focus entirely on my video scripts for now to make my site stand out.

Well, I'm not the one to answer that question, I suggest you ask someone you trust or look it up. But regardless, I will say the basic thing: Sex is what allows fetuses to be created. Sex does not always equate to a new fetus being made.

Too long, too angsty rant to follow, I apologize. And this has nothing to do with whatever's going on in the thread, I haven't read it.

I'm sick of being told that the way I live my life, especially involving sexual activity, is wrong. I am not infringing on anyone else's beliefs, I am not hurting anyone, and I am not telling other people the way they live is wrong. Taking actions that go against what someone's beliefs say is acceptable does not infringe or invalidate those beliefs, it only represents my ability to decide for myself what's right and wrong. I am not obligated to follow the rules of Christianity that basically dictate most societal norms about sex. If I want to think about guys sexually even though I'm also a guy, I'm allowed. If I want to openly express my opinions in a way that doesn't insult those around me, I'm allowed--simply expressing my opinions IS NOT an insult to people who feel differently and IS NOT cause enough to get offended. So yeah! If I'm feeling stressed out and I want to find some random guy on the internet to do meaningless online sex stuff with because it relieves stress and is not hurting anyone, I'm allowed. I am fed up with the judgment people pass based on sexual activity--you can tell yourself whatever you want, but sex is different for everyone and for me, it's not a tool for reproduction and it is not a symbol of an undying, love-filled commitment. It is a way for me to have fun, let off steam, and enjoy myself.

AND THAT'S OKAY.

What's not okay is when you try to pass off what sex means to you as an individual as the one, unshakable truth about it. Even if you firmly believe it is, presenting your beliefs as fact in an argument is not logical and not okay. I'm just like shaking with frustration because no one seems to get that. I don't, and I shouldn't, feel embarrassed talking about these things--maybe a little embarrassed in a positive, laughing-at-yourself way, but not guilty or ashamed in the way that people would have me be.

End rant, thanks for letting me get that out.

My rant, as I said, has nothing to do with whatever was going on in the thread, but now that I'm reading it, it probably looks that way. I was posting here because it's the rant topic and I was angry about something.

Seemed to all stem from a simple question I asked about why the thread seemed so out of control lately, making me worry. I sincerely apologize for unintentionally provoking this. Reading through it seems to have become too disturbing for the time being. Give people a break from this thread for a while is my advice IMO

While I'm all for having a space where people can air their frustrations and problems they have in life and try to find support, recent events and discussions have not been acceptable in the slightest. Given the toxic, unpleasant, and borderline criminal discussions going on lately I'm locking this thread indefinitely. Overall things in the community as a whole have gotten way out of hand with trolls, harassment, and general spamming.

NSM has seen rapid growth in a short amount of time, and that's something we're not used to. We're getting a rapid influx of newer, younger members looking to be part of a cool place. We're also getting the attention of more trouble makers looking to do just that. It's become clear that for a lot of our newer members, given the family-friendly nature of NSM this is likely most people's "first forum", and try fitting in. Unfortunately, we're so used to being a small, tight-knit group that it's hard to insert yourself into that. Some of us simply don't like outsiders so it takes a long time to warm up to people, we tend to reward the people who ease themselves into the conversation and admonish those who just jump right in. The latter of which needs to adapt to the fact that there'll always be someone new who simply doesn't know forum etiquette and is excited and just wants to be part of the fun. I say we should embrace the coming newness and adapt to the fact that we won't be a small private club anymore.

There's always going to be those few who just won't listen to the advice given them, and proceed to spam the forums, but they'll be dealt with like they always have in the past; and there'll always be those few bad apples who pop up just to cause problems. But the truth is that this is going to be more common as more sheets end up on the site. With every news post somebody new notices it and comes along. This is a good thing, new members are always a good thing, so let's all work together to keep this place from imploding on itself.

In all seriousness, school sucks. I wish i had never started. It's dumb and I don't understand it. I made a friend but she's on vacation so I won't see her for a while. So I'm stuck doing shitty schoolwork and bullcrap I don't even understand without friends to talk to. And I'm the laughingstock of the school because my answers are different then everyone elses. Fuck school with a passion. Too late to drop out now...

Can't people listen to music/shows through earbuds/headphones when they're the only ones who care about it? I feel like personal music should be a private thing. Or at least keep it to a reasonable volume so that you can listen to it without the entire apartment hearing it comfortably. </roommate rant>

Ahhh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them), the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons have driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to tempt your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic. And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese.

Lost my mind just now due to an incredibly close call.

So I use a mac for most things, that was a hand me down from my grandmother when she upgraded to a newer mac. Her older mac has every bit of data that was on it before the upgrade (Meaning it copied over before she gave it to me), and some things can't be opened on the new mac. I've had it for two years now with no issues. I was working hard on my PMD retrospective and importing an LP for footage when suddenly the 10 GB I had remaining drained rapidly, which scared me as the files weren't that big. It gave me a message saying that the startup disk was almost full and I freaked out, erasing a 22 GB 3DS Backup to barely save my mac from who knows what. When it was finally finished, I had only 13 GB left, so with my grandmother's approval I went and put a lot of her old stuff in the trash that took up a lot of space, but I haven't erased it yet as she wants to check and see if it would somehow do the same on her new computer (Which I doubt but I agreed to stay safe). After that super close call I'm incredibly scared about using iMovie. I'm scared if I make one wrong move my 10 hours of editing will be completely erased. Any Mac users have any advice on this situation? Will it affect her new computer (it hasn't in the past FYI) and if I didn't erase my 3DS backup would iMovie have corrupted everything on my computer, or just force quit? I'm really scared...

Just nuke the whole thing and reinstall Mac OS.  You need to do that every 1-2 years on a Mac anyway else it gets hilariously sluggish.

Well I did empty the trash upon my grandmothers approval and I now have 20 GB. Can't reinstall Mac OS X due to my fear of losing valuable data, but I am clearing out more stuff.

Now I'm worried that when I export the one hour movie it will eat all 20 gigs of data or de sync. Rather dumb I know but it's the first time I've ever made a movie this big in iMovie 11. I'm in school at the moment of this post and I can't stop worrying, which makes me frustrated. Gah, I hope nothing goes wrong as I really don't want to lose my movie to some accident...

At first, I was all cool and calm, but I got so mad, I honked, but he flipped me out and went slower. There was a puddle of water on the right side so I immediately switched lanes and splashed the hell out of him.

Unfortunately I heard a loud bang outside my home and thought it was a gunshot, so my grandparents called the non-emergency police. We then learned it was a neighbor who launched a firecracker so nothing bad ever happened, and now I feel like a moron for scaring my skype contacts I was talking with at the time and for scaring myself. Seriously though, what idiot makes a firecracker sound like a gunshot? It's scary if you are in a neighborhood or public place...

So... a little kid was screaming "I WANT DOMINO's" really loudly for pretty much all of the last hour. I'm surprised about a couple of things:

1) The fact that the kid could yell/cry for more than five minutes
2) The fact that the parents did pretty much nothing

I need a screaming kid-free environment to work in, so that pretty much made me lose an hour of potentially usable time. Ah, well.

This is a really ironic rant but I really hate all of my friends who always find something to complain about and act like the world is out to get them. Suck it up and only complain about things that are legitimate tbh, I totally understand if you need to let off steam, but if it's at the point where you are constantly negative and don't even try to take responsibility for some of your problems, it just annoys me to no end. It seems like no one wants to acknowledge it when they cause their own problems and just blame other people for everything.

Like fuck, I can only go so long without calling you out on that bullshit, I'm not nice enough to nod and agree with stuff like that when it's not true.

Sousa knew how to write marches, he wrote about 150 of the damn things. The "March King,"  as he's called, was fully fucking capable of writing a stinger at the end of his march. I'm pretty fucking sure he knew what he wanted when he didn't put one at the end of this one. I've been getting more and more fed up with the pure stupidity that is the music staff at this facility.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on September 23, 2015, 04:10:39 PMYou don't have much business being in music if you don't have the capability to get this worked up about it honestly

but really

also that quote reminded me: i've been tutoring this freshman girl in theory (and piano apparently, not sure why i agreed to that one) and she is just in the wrong damn profession entirely. She's a singer and one who "just sings", y'know no note-reading or any of that jazz. That's cool, I mean, some musicians come to this program with less experience than others? Except she's also horrendously bad at music so far, like she doesn't understand any of the spatial or mathematical relationships that music really requires. What's the difference between a half and a whole note? Who really fuckin knows? That's two eighth notes so it's beats 1 and 2, right? I mean why would they be subdivided? What the hell does the dot mean? No it's 1.5 but what does it mean? "What, I have to keep playing [the piano with my left hand while my right hand moves]? That's like both sides of your brain at once, that's really hard!" (actual quote I am not fucking exaggerating. this school requires four semesters of piano)

You know I like tutoring, and I plan to be a music theory professor one day. But this kind of tutoring, where I feel like I have to explain the basic concepts of music to someone who is basically incapable of understanding the underlying math, is painful. Painful. And I can't even say anything because I'm just a fellow student! Instead I end up going to the music therapy supervisor (who's my bud from my days as a music therapy student) and melting into a puddle of word-vomit "OH GOD THIS IS TERRIBLE WHAT DO I DO". And then she basically implicitly agrees with me that this is a doomed track for this girl and I feel bad and I feel bad for complaining but really seeing someone struggle with theory basically sets off alarm bells that scream "TELL SOMEONE GODDAMIT ALTI DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS" which make me feel bad for not acting on them so it's a catch-22, either I feel bad or I ... feel bad, and no matter what the answer is I still have to keep tutoring, which I can do because I'm really damn patient when it comes to this kind of teaching, but I cannot impart understanding when I have no devices with which to do so. Augmented sixth chords? Hit me up. Modes? I've got three different ways of thinking about them. Voice leading rules? Easy enough to adapt to the learning style! Note durations? ... that's where I hit a wall. Maybe I'll need to work on that in grad school. But I'm pretty good with math and the durations make total sense to me - as they do most of my peers. Then sometimes I just get that one student who you can tell probably struggled immensely with math in school (and hell, in third grade I struggled with fractions which is the ENTIRE CONCEIT of note durations, which I'm fine at now, so it's not just that being lacking) and you have no way to make them understand because notes is math. Notes is always math. Chords is math and intervals is math and everything comes down to numbers and if you don't understand the numerical relations (even my mom who plays piano as a hobby but hasn't touched it in months, when I went to her and said - "But you understand math - if you move from a line to a line you're going up -" "Two notes." "EXACTLY!") then I am sorry but you are in the wrong damn major (I likened it to a friend as "a translator who can only translate present tense") and I have no way to tell you that because I'm just the theory tutor student.

You may be able to infer it from this, but - this has happened before. Two years ago I had a student that I taught at least twice a week for both semesters (until she left the school; the reason why is irrelevant) who didn't understand these basic relationships either (and, by no coincidence, was also a singer). That was painful. I'm not really looking forward to repeating that part of my duties as tutor.

I'm sure that girl thinks she's Billie Holiday or something, but I think the pop music genre (in general) makes people think they can be successful without actually knowing music theory since they can hire songwriters and sing by ear or autotune -.-

It's not just music. Today someone asked me for help in math! She was a math education major and got some basic arithmetic wrong. Then didn't know what math class she was taking and had told the person at the desk she was taking calculus. And I was going over the super basic 6th GRADE geometry she should have know before taking this class because I knew she was never going to get trigonometry without knowing basic properties first, (such as area and circumference) so I spent the whole hour telling her those instead. I wonder how she's going to survive being an almost math major...

Also this other guy that asked me for help in chemistry and clearly did not read his book before asking me questions because the answer and explanation was right there. He expected me to recap the lecture for him. He wanted help on every single one of his homework problems. I feel like I'm doing his homework but at least I get to say "this is similar to the last problem and since we already went over that, you should do this yourself." Then I gave him a reading list from his own book rather than give him the answer or tell him how to do the problems >_>

The music students at least show they're trying to understand notation and theory.

And the fact that you go to an all boys school is actually a major reason for someone NOT to come out, especially since it's a Catholic school.

Maestro FactTM: There are actually only 6 gay people in the world right now (according to a study in 2013 made by me), everybody else claiming to be gay is likely an immaculately sculptured block of cheese, of which there are at least twice as many. Based on these conclusions I'm confident in saying people who haven't encountered gay people are actually just lactose intolerant and have likely blocked out the encounter.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on September 24, 2015, 01:06:33 PMAnd the fact that you go to an all boys school is actually a major reason for someone NOT to come out, especially since it's a Catholic school.

Quantum field theory.

If you must start a witch hunt, find out who has older brothers because that boosts the chance of them being gay.

Quote from: Nebbles on September 24, 2015, 12:59:09 PMOkay but I doubt any gay people are just going to walk around wearing signs that go "i'm hella gay".

Well I'm in high school, so I think anyone that is gay/bi either:

a) Doesn't know it yet
b) They can't admit it to themselves yet
c) Has come to terms with it but doesn't want to risk being out.

I'm sure as people grow up and move out a more believable percentage of them well be LGBTQ, but right now, my school is ~99.9% straight.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on September 24, 2015, 01:06:33 PMHe found out I had a thing for him last week during some weird circumstances and I think he was kinda weirded out but we haven't talked about it (and I'm not planning on it) and he's been cool so IDK. (Apart from this painfully awkward obviously forced story he told about trying to pick up a girl that was clearly meant to be like "hi I'm straight")

I think it'd be better if both of you get some sort of consolation/closure on it, but I can see how it would be nearly impossible to bring up at this point.

Gay stereotypes are annoyingly true. I'd rather date a girl than a feminine guy and I'll be darned if I can find a boyfriend who doesn't wear pink skinny jeans and calls everything fabulous in an oddly high pitched voice.

I knew a gay guy in high school who fit the "acting loud and feminine" stereotype but he also wanted to join the military and was a libertarian so there's that. His (ex) boyfriend was not at all feminine, not the pinnacle of masculinity either but not feminine :/

Based on these conclusions I'm confident in saying people who haven't encountered gay people are actually just lactose intolerant and have likely blocked out the encounter.

Except there could very well be a concept of maturity, like we have a concepts of infinity and perfection even though we have never witnessed anything perfect or infinite.
Plato and Descartes were both behind the idea that there are two worlds: the world of ideas, soul and reason and the world of substance and senses.

Quote from: translating these terms is hard so i'm just gonna copy the english translation of explanation on plato's anamnesis theoryThe Platonic doctrine of recollection or anamnesis, is the idea that we are born possessing all knowledge and our realization of that knowledge is contingent on our discovery of it. Whether the doctrine should be taken literally or not is a subject of debate. The soul is trapped in the body. The soul once lived in "Reality", but got trapped in the body. It once knew everything, but forgot it. The goal of Recollection is to get back to true Knowledge. To do this, one must overcome the body. This doctrine implies that nothing is ever learned, it is simply recalled or remembered. In short it says that all that we know already comes pre-loaded on birth and our senses enable us to identify and recognize the stratified information in our mind.

In America, they deliberately ignore facts that don't support their dumb arguments. Ever seen a debate on gun ownership? The people making those arguments saying why everyone should have access to guns like candy are so ignorant and terrible people that they would have to have it actually happen before they change their minds. Like the sherriff that was sent to the latest college shooting posted these pro-gun, anti-Obama, Sandy Hook conspiracy stuff on Facebook. But when it happened in HIS town, he stfu and deleted the shit off Facebook because he realized mass shooting actually happen and deniers like him exist.

No one said anything even remotely close to any of those things, you should try to view things rationally instead of hastly overgeneralizing like that ._. overgeneralization doesn't substitute for actual arguments.

listen well fren cuz i'm bout to drop this knowledge on you
Gun control doesn't mean every citizen should have their guns confiscated, it means that a citizen can apply for a licence for a gun and that you can't bring guns to public places. If you have a valid reason for a gun, you are mentally healthy and your background is clean, you would get your licence for a gun without any problems. Gun control is globally proven to be an effective method to lower the amount of homicides.
(here's a link (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Finland) to finland's wiki page on gun politics and I can say that they are effective)

you're overgeneralizing the liberal view again, which you have admittedly done in the past as well. literally no one has said or implied that you shouldn't have money. besides i'm pretty money would lose all value if only government had it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You're saying that people should respect other people's views but you still talk about it condescendingly, don't you think it's hypocritical to expect someone to respect fe. your views if you're condescending towards others? Also I literally made my previous post on this thread about how if you're "uneducated"(notice how this adjective can be replaced with any other adjective), it doesn't mean your arguments wouldn't be as valid as anyone else's. And you're talking like there is some universal definition to "dumb" or "uneducated". You assume some people here can't view other people's opinions rationally, but sorry to say it, to me it looks like you're the one with that problem.

What is "basically every informal fallacy"? (I didn't get your point exactly! D:)
I was specifically talking about ad hominem, but in general, names for informal fallacies tend to help people to adress the argument properly.
(For example, if we take "any logic that doesn't specifically adress the argument has some fancy shmancy name.", you can say that's it's an essentialistic generalization, because it's based on you defining any term in context with logic as "fancy shmancy".)

^technically that post wasn't "debatey", but reasonable dialectics.
Spoiler
Quote from: the differenceThe term dialectics is not synonymous with the term debate. While in theory debaters are not necessarily emotionally invested in their point of view, in practice debaters frequently display an emotional commitment that may cloud rational judgement. Debates are won through a combination of persuading the opponent; proving one's argument correct; or proving the opponent's argument incorrect. Debates do not necessarily require promptly identifying a clear winner or loser; however clear winners are frequently determined by either a judge, jury, or by group consensus. The term dialectics is also not synonymous with the term rhetoric, a method or art of discourse that seeks to persuade, inform, or motivate an audience. Concepts, like "logos" or rational appeal, "pathos" or emotional appeal, and "ethos" or ethical appeal, are intentionally used by rhetoricians to persuade an audience.

Okay so my class is studying medieval life so naturally Christianity comes up since it was a HUGE part of life in the Middle Ages.
After class everyone is talking about their beliefs and that's fine and dandy but this annoys me SO much.
People cannot fucking differentiate between atheism and agnosticism. There were these two girls who were like "Atheists KNOW there is no God, but I can't say that for sure so I'm an agnostic", or, "I'm agnostic because I'm open to the idea of God".
NO. THAT ISN'T HOW IT WORKS.
Here's Google's definition of agnosticism; "a person who believes that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of God or of anything beyond material phenomena".
Agnostics don't know; neither do atheists. Here's the key difference: Agnostics, since they can't prove or disprove it, don't take a stance on it or say it's impossible to know.
Atheists just don't believe in it.
Please, everyone, before you claim to be an agnostic see if you're just confused on the definitions.

I guess I'm somewhere in between? I really don't know. I definitely don't believe in any religious text or modern religion, they just personally don't make any sense to me. However, I am open to the idea of a divine being in general as it's kinda nice to think that our universe has a reason for existing. Of course, that begs the question as to what created the universe the divine being is in so meh, it's complicated and I don't really can't make an opinion on it.

I would say those two quotes you had aren't terribly inaccurate. Overly simplified, yes, but they reflect the basic idea. The basic differentiation I use in my mind is that atheism disbelieves while agnosticism simply chooses not to believe. Even though the definition and common use of "agnostic" don't line up exactly, there really isn't a much better word for somebody who neither accepts nor rejects the idea of one or more deities.

It was then that I realized Col. Jenkins was never really Col. Jenkins, but rather Col. Waldo wearing a Col. Jenkins mask. Turns out Col. Jenkins never existed, and it was an elaborate ruse to trick me into getting Col. Waldo the Maltese Falcon, even though I told him I didn't like him ever since he spilled coffee on the new rug in my office that was a present from the President of Motor Mechanic Machines Inc. And as I mourned the unexistence of Col. Jenkins I realized that Col. Jenkins would've wanted me to remember Col. Jenkins not as the man he wasn't, but rather as the Col. Jenkins that couldn't not have been. But Col. Waldo stood there, smiling at the fact that I was visibly upset at the revelation the Col. Jenkins was actually him, Col. Waldo, and his elaborate ruse was a success. But Col. Jenkins would've wanted me to go on with my life, unbothered by his non-existence and carry myself as though he really did live a life of a very real and legally binding authenticity. The only thing that remained of the memory of the would've been late Col. Jenkins was this badly photo-shopped image of him standing in front of a Circuit City, which also doesn't exist anymore. Should've been a clue, really, now that I think about it. But there Col. Waldo stood, and then he walked out of the room, onto his next great prank.

i want to stress eat so badly but theres literally no more rice left and theres basically nothing else to eat, unless i want to stress eat cereal...
i dont really want to wake up go to school and meet people tomorrow because im feeling like a selfish useless piece of shit that i would probably want to ignore if i was somebody else.
i feel so emo right now i dont even want to post this because these kind of posts annoy me to read but i just need to say it somewhere, but youre the closest people i have to friends so i really dont have another place to vent this. sorry i hope you understand

just in case: dont pm or skype me about this please. my parents might end up seeing it since it sends my phone notifications and get me in trouble or something

Did you try unplugging/plugging it back in? Make sure to stay hydrated, take a dump, eat a well balanced meal, get 7-9 hours sleep and then reassess.

well, that's sorta how to deal with extra active hormones. I often feel wanderlust when I need to poop.




...Really though. Don't let them take it away from you. That desire for something more, for adventure... for destiny. Don't let them turn it against you, either.
It's dangerous to go alone, so take that feeling with you! Find out what it means to be a Hero.

Anyway, if that doesn't help, just know that what you're experiencing is normal. Don't give up hope... stay Determined!

So earlier I mentioned how upset I was that in my language arts class (which focuses on learning about teenagers and their behavior) we were forced to read Jane Austen's Emma for a long time, and sit through that horrid movie which had not much of anything at all. I thought we would finally get to, well, you know, actual content to help me learn since I took the class in hopes of learning how to improve my social skills with other teens (like advertised)

Nope, instead we are reading Ordinary People by Judith Guest, which is even worse than Emma, believe it or not. A long, long book that makes little sense and seems like a stereotypical story about depression and suicide. Something just rubs me the wrong way how apparently teenagers are suicidal and depressed, according to this class and I regret signing up for this garbage class as this book is really frustrating me as it makes no sense whatsoever and I can't stand it...

The worst part? I have to take detailed notes for EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER and remember obscure quotes in order to get a good grade, so I'm nervous my 98% grade in this horrid class will drop all because of this depressing and boring book... I'd rather read Emma from beginning to end than sit through this book for any longer. I feel like I'm going insane

Yes this is all true, and I know it. It's just really hard because we were practically married for 3 years and this breakup is more like a divorce. I know in the long run this will be better for me (idk for him) but right now it's tough and I don't see the benefits yet...

I dunno if I wanna patch things up tbpfh because she really does not treat me well. Not out of active malice but because of complete self-absorption and it's really trying on me to have to deal with it.

But yes I do need new friends. The only problem is that my college is v preppy and nO ONE LIKES MY SHIT.

Hmm I have waaaaay too many douchebags in my life -.- I'm sure I'm not the problem because everyone else seems to think I'm fine.

For example, I tried being "nice" and went out of my way to go to the airport train station to pick *someone* up. Getting there took hour and a half.  So I got there at 10:50 PM (Flight's supposed to land at 10:30). I'm sitting there for an hour when I get a call saying she was at the airport and she's heading out now. Half an hour later, she says she can't find the train. Then she tries a bunch of ways to get directions, all dummy proof ones, but they somehow still mess up. Finally I get a last call saying that some nice airport worker was taking the airtrain with her to the station. It's 12:45 AM. By then, the trains are on a "construction" schedule and I get home at 2:50. I have a meeting at 11 in the morning too.

Then when I get home *someone* demands dinner, while she looked at her new 2 smartphones and a 3rd one owned by her friend, and counted (out loud) wads of cash while wearing a crazy amount of jewelry. Then hogs the bathroom and complains about my "ugly face." Yeah, I'm sure your money can't solve your stupidity, or anyone's for that matter.

Edit: Dahans is a fine bear!

Bit of a medical issue-related rant, here.

So, my health hasn't ever been the greatest. But within the past while, I've been having trouble with a skin disease I won't mention because the of the pictures of it, a seemingly never-ending cough, and I now know that I have a disease that's a precursor to diabetes. Then yesterday I had my first asthma attack in like two years. I really wish I had an immune system and a body that could actually deal with stuff normally. I mean, all of those aforementioned things are pretty common, but knowing that you have like 3 super annoying chronic diseases while pretty much everyone else you know has none is rather disappointing. My insomnia isn't really helping, either. I wake up everyday feeling so tired and sleepy and I spend like 2 hours at night counting up to 1500 sheep (don't laugh. Also, that doesn't work). And then I'm told by everyone that I need to "go to sleep like a normal person so my body can rest" and stuff like that, but I can't just "go to sleep like a normal person". But I know that I have it better than millions of people, and that I shouldn't really be stressing myself over stuff that I can't exactly control. But it sucks, anyways.

Ending off on a brighter unrelated note, I now know how one of my teachers reacts when a student uses the words "holy water lubricant" when talking to him.

If you need someone to relate too, I've got my own fair share of chronic diseases. I was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Type 3 a couple years backwhich has chronic symptoms similar to dysautonomia. Completely unrelated to that I've got vitiligo (not a big deal as long as I don't get skin cancer), Aspergers (...eh), scoliosis and I'm crossing my fingers I come back negative for marfan's and viruses. So yeah, I understand the whole "why do I have to have all this shit and no one else does" conflicting with "at least I'm not living in the middle east right now."

Post by: InsigTurtle on November 04, 2015, 12:27:22 AM
Sounds like you have it pretty bad. Do you ever feel that your health restricts you socially?
I mean, in my case, I feel that while my skin disease isn't going to kill me (unless something gets severely infected and stuff spreads to my bloodstream), it feels way more socially restrictive than anything else I have. I haven't worn shorts or t-shirts in 5 years now, since I wanted to hide the cuts and scars and rashes and stuff so I could prevent people from staring there, asking me, or avoiding me. And while I'd like to tell them the truth about it, I just don't want them to know. I know people who'd wince at the sight at a small scrape or rash, so looking at me would...

But yeah.

It's nice to finally have that off my chest.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: FireArrow on November 05, 2015, 09:05:09 AM
Well, I'm effected pretty horribly socially, but I don't think it's really in the same way as you. I mostly struggle with chronic fatigue, which makes it really difficult to have enough energy and time to socialize. Also having Asperger's just kinda... sucks. You're self aware enough to know what makes things difficult for you but you have no power to change any of it.

As for hiding things appearance wise, my skin disease isn't that bad (http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news/435005/Scott-Jorgensens-extreme-Vitiligo-solution/) and the only noticeable disfigurements I have from other things are on my chest, so I really don't have to worry about physical appearance too much. From my experiences though, friends are supportive, even if it grosses them out/they don't understand it. Stragers can always be dicks, but I wouldn't let it get to you. When people called me "skin disease boy" in 6th grade I just incorrectly told them it was contagious - they left me alone after that. :3

Post by: TheDreamingHawk on November 07, 2015, 08:34:17 PM
Pressure, Pressure, Pressure, that's what I've been dealing with. I'm working hard on my website reviews and my youtube channel, and recently I found out that review copies for Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon are heading out next week. I was placed on the review list for the game months ago by NOA's PR team, but until Yoshi's Woolly World none of the games they placed me on the list for were ever given to me for review, with them always saying they "ran out" and not giving me an explanation on how my scheduled review copies were not showing up. The sad thing is that if they don't fulfill my requests, then that usually means when I go and buy the game myself for a review, that they end up ignoring it when the review is completed and therefore don't send the feedback off to NOA themselves/the developers. With the PMD series meaning a lot to me, and with me working super hard on my retrospective of the series on my youtube channel, it's making me really stressed tonight, as I'm desperately working hard to get the PMD retrospective completed without rushing it, along with continuing with my video content and text reviews...

Needless to say, I'm paranoid and stressed that I won't end up getting a review copy, which by itself would be fine as I'll buy it myself like I planned (Since PSMD is a day one buy no matter what), but that also brings the issue that unless I rush through the entire game on the weekend and write a review, then NOA PR will stop taking feedback if the review is post-release unless they give you permission to send in a post release review for them to send off to NOA, which is really sad since this may be the only chance I have at giving Spike Chunsoft feedback on the PMD series, something I've dreamed of doing in some way for years now! It's one of those "so close, I'm almost there, this is the final chance!" moments, and it's making me work beyond hard this week and weekend on things, so of course it led to me being too overworked that I'm easily agitated today since I'm forcing myself to do so many reviews, scripts, videos, etc at once without rushing them or making them poor quality.

TLDR: I have too much work to do, so much worrying about if this big chance to give feedback to a developer I admire will be worth it, and overall I'm just really stressed. Hoping I can relieve that stress soon so that I won't feel overwhelmed.

OK, sarcasm, frustration or not, if you think game reviewers just review for the purpose of getting free games then you are mistaken, as that's absolutely NOT the reason any reviewer should review games. It's for the passion, for the ability to express your thoughts directly to the publisher/developer of the games, and to share your thoughts with any readers who are on the fence regarding specific games. I never get paid to write a review, and I only began to review games upon seeing numerous indie developers on the Wii U eShop get completely ignored by other gaming websites, which made me want to do something to give them feedback so they can improve with their games and future efforts. I have a big, long explaination on why I began to review in the first place in the spoiler tag so I don't take up a majority of the page, so feel free to read if you have time to listen to me ramble.
Spoiler
Therefore, I decided to use my old website to reach out to them, review their games, gave my honest feedback on the matter and those smaller developers thanked me for the feedback, whether it was a low score because their game was not good, or a solid recommendation for a hidden gem.

Eventually my small website spread via word of mouth, and despite the forums not getting any activity in terms of replies, I still managed to build a community via my website's twitter account, where the majority of views and feedback come from. Over time I helped a wide variety of developers and eventually I helped third party publishers with their games as well, which prompted me to remodel my simple freeforum to a website with a domain name, which has brought even MORE traffic and allowed me to establish relationships with publishers such as Nintendo of America, NIS America, Atlus USA, Xseed Games, Little Orbit and Natsume Inc. I do this for the passion and for the fact that I feel that I can actually help out the gaming industry in any way I can, and hearing "thank you" from folks who followed me on twitter that read my reviews and used those to decide if they should buy the game or not, or from developers who used them to improve their sequels or future efforts.

I didn't start reviewing just because "oh cool i can get free games from nintendo", I did it to help out game developers, and my growth is what led to me to review games for bigger companies like NOA. I don't always get review copies from publishers, and that never bothers me if they can't fulfill my requests, as they always give a reason why, whether because it's priority based and that the bigger websites should get them first, or  because they didn't get many from the console manufacturer to begin with. It's something that if I can't do, I move on and work hard on other reviews. The reason NOA PR is an issue is because they don't really communicate with reviewers that well compared to most other PR companies. They claim to put you on a review list for the game, only to suddenly reverse that decision without explanation or simply ignore you upon launch day, which is frustrating for both myself and even some bigger reviewers out there as they don't make it clear on what's going on.

I know that the PR folks can't do much about things if someone higher up makes the decision to not give someone a review copy, which is understandable, but the reason it is frustrating for me is that bigger publishers like NOA really only take feedback from reviewers who review the game before the release date, from reviewers that review it the moment it comes out, or for reviewers who are allowed to write a post-release review. This means that for PSMD, I could work super hard on a long review, filled with feedback, my honest thoughts, etc just like I would do for any other game, only for NOA PR to ignore it because it's post release unless they state that they can send the reviews off to NOA themselves during that time.

I could care less about getting it for free, I just want to have my voice heard on the game like with any other thing I review, so therefore that's why I'm working very hard, to show that I can still give feedback and I'm willing to review any game sent my way. This could be the only chance I have to express my opinion directly to NOA and Spike Chunsoft on a new PMD game, which is something I've wanted to do for a while in order to give my honest thoughts and feedback on the game, which in turn influences future efforts from the two. It's not like I've never ever reviewed games for NOA before, by the way, quite the opposite! I've gotten review copies for Dr. Mario Miracle Cure and Yoshi's Woolly World from them, and reviewed Boxboy, Pokemon Rumble World and amiibo tap for them in my own time, all of those reviews having been sent off to NOA themselves to take my feedback into account, along with all the other reviewers who put their time into writing reviews. I still buy the majority of my games to enjoy in my own time, and I even review a few of those if I want to share my thoughts on them.

Yes, I know it may be hard to believe all of what I said about how much work goes into reviewing a game and giving feedback to developers and publishers that need it, but in all honesty that's why I review games, to give feedback. Getting a game early or for free is only a small perk, nothing more and shouldn't ever be the reason for anyone to review games in the first place. I sincerely apologize for writing a very long reply to a short comment, but I wanted to get that off my chest to clear things up for those wondering why this is an issue for me.
[close]

TLDR: I review games for feedback, and I don't care about free stuff, I just like to express my thoughts on the games I play, and help out the developers and publishers by doing so, and seeing folks happy or pleased with my feedback makes me thankful to do this as a hobby. The only reason NOA PR makes me upset is because there's a chance they may not accept ANY feedback I have on PSMD after it launches, even when I buy it myself and give my full thoughts on it, all because it would be made after the game launches and therefore irrelevant compared to doing it when the review embargo lifts, which makes me worried that this big chance to give feedback directly to Chunsoft and NOA about PMD may not happen.


Quote from: Waddle Bro on November 08, 2015, 06:18:29 AMWhere do you review games? do you have a lot of audience?

I review games on my own website, which I made a thread about in the creativity corner. I've helped out Gonintendo with news tips for years now, and I've also given feedback to other websites/reviewers hoping to start out for the same reason as mine. As for my audience, I have a decent following on my twitter, which is where the majority of my feedback comes from, and on my newly launched youtube channel I have a lot of folks who watch my gameplay videos and give me feedback on things like my retrospective. I'm small, yes but still growing and enjoy hearing the feedback folks send to me via any of those sources, and I'm working hard on trying to get a community going on my website forums as well.

But anyway, I do apologize for going on and on about reviews. I put a lot of effort into them and do it as a hobby, hence why this weekend in particular is stressful as I really want to give it my all so I'm working my butt off to do so

I didn't even read the rant. But what sucks more is to write recommendations for people you don't like so much or when someone can lose their real job over it.

Every week, I'm getting more experience on how to write about music from telling others how to do it. Harder than any writing about fan stuff.

HEY. ALL Y'ALL. DROP IT.

What's done is done.
People can be dicks, or get offended by others opinions.
You can't control them, or anyone else but you.
So take a look at yourself, and if you're one of the dicks, then make a change.
Like holy fuck, there's too much negativity here right now and it's getting old very quickly.
I'm not blaming any one particular side in this, because you're both baiting the other side.
Someone wants to be an idiot? Fine! Let them! They can do that.
But wait! They're personally attacking you or your beliefs?
Well, that's not fine! But don't reciprocate. Talk to one the mods. That's why they're here.
And if you can't handle stupidity/other opinions, maybe you should stay away from the politics board.

Don't be dickbutts.

Also it seems like I'll never have enough money to buy all the books I want, so I think I'll have to want fewer books. But there's an art book for everything now.

Fat sis also let her cat in my room this morning by opening the door when I was sleeping. Now there's fur all over the bed and I just washed everything in the room on Saturday.

Yes, but we're a forum of people with very similar interests. (Nintendo and sheet music, as far as I can tell.)
If you can't behave civilly on a board such as this, then you really shouldn't be here.
Plus...
Quote from: THE FORUM RULES- No attacks on other users in the form of trolling, flaming, etc.

- Calm debates on politics, religion, etc will be tolerated, but if things get out of hand then consequences will follow

- Do not openly complain about other members, admins, etc.  That should be done through private messages. Do not publicly post private messages.

I mean, it's literally in the rules.
Y'know, those things you have to read before you join?
Or did everybody skip right over those..?

edit (adding an additional thought so as to avoid a double post)
Yes, I know I've broken some of those rules in the past. (Mr. Saturn, anyone? (If you don't understand, find the member with that name and then you will.)
However, upon being asked by mods or even just fellow forum friends, I stopped! A community does not work at its maximum potential when there are rules in place that are followed by almost everybody, except for a select few that feel they are above the law. In real life, there are actual, tangible consequences for breaking the law. Online? Not so much.

I'm sure it's possible for people to get along and just eliminate the reason why they fight at all. 99% of the things people fight about are silly and can be dealt with. Like the cat situation is solvable if I could just get a towel for it to sit on. So I don't get why people always think the best way to deal with something is to ignore it because "it happens." That's kind of a defeated point of view.

Lol "do not publicly post private messages."

I just had to remake a large portion of my college course plans to account for some mistakes I made in planning a year ago. So the original focus of my minor (scientific computation) went out the window unless I plan on having an average of ~18 credits per semester from here on out. I can probably keep it with a statistics and probability emphasis instead, but even that might have some scheduling conflicts. Always spend tedious hours making sure your course plan works, kids. Otherwise you'll spend twice as many tedious hours fixing it.

It's actually likely that you have a bad hard drive if you can't even wipe and reformat from the install dialog.  It's an easy fix assuming you're comfortable with a screwdriver.  Verification could be done from another PC with a hard drive mount and some test software.

Well, the loophole way to reset the computer worked. I really hope it turns out not to be my hard drive and everything runs smoothly from here.

The computer was completely functional, just a bit slow and opening the start menu would make it crash. sfc /scannow told me there was corrupted data that it couldn't repair. Trying to repair/reset it from the boot menu resulted in various error messages ("missing necessary partitions", "there was an error repairing your computer", etc.) If I used a bootable disk it was unable to write anywhere on the hard drive.

Sooo... I've discovered something that annoys me.

Whenever some big news-worthy event happens somewhere, people on Facebook show their support by changing their profile picture. Which is fine, like, I'm glad people know what's going on around the world, and I'm glad you feel sympathetic towards others who have been affected by a great tragedy. But changing your profile picture on Facebook isn't actually going to do anything. I can almost guarantee that most of those people have not done a thing to ACTUALLY help the cause. I understand maybe there's not a lot you can do, but you could at least donate some money or something instead of just posting your status "I support France." Oh do you? And how exactly do you do that? By posting a status on Facebook? Really?

You do realize that it's that kind of mindset and reaction that led to events like this in the first place, right? Don't blame an entire population for a few extremists. Should something be done? Of course, but history has proven that such an extreme form of retaliation only leads to more resentment and further escalation of the conflict.

@ZeldaFan It's a gesture. Showing united support globally is against the greedy, egoistic and warhungry image the terrorists have of the western society, and the best way to destroy the stereotypes is to have of someone take their stereotypes to crossroads with what they observe. If we show them we're in this together, it's definitely going to have an effect on them.

The reason I don't bother to reply to those facebook posts (from people who should know better) is because they don't quite understand things. We can't just march back into Syria and start blowing up whatever we feel like nor can countries close their borders like that because there are also innocent people in those countries in this middle of this war trying to get away from the same things that happened yesterday.

Also those same idiots don't think twice about sending other people's kids to war (as in, they elect the people who want war). And post dumb facebook memes about Jesus and "supporting veterans" which is even more useless since facebook memes don't treat PTSD and Jesus doesn't have internet.

Heh maybe I should talk back to them.

Quote from: ZeldaFan on November 14, 2015, 02:47:03 PMSooo... I've discovered something that annoys me.

Whenever some big news-worthy event happens somewhere, people on Facebook show their support by changing their profile picture. Which is fine, like, I'm glad people know what's going on around the world, and I'm glad you feel sympathetic towards others who have been affected by a great tragedy. But changing your profile picture on Facebook isn't actually going to do anything. I can almost guarantee that most of those people have not done a thing to ACTUALLY help the cause. I understand maybe there's not a lot you can do, but you could at least donate some money or something instead of just posting your status "I support France." Oh do you? And how exactly do you do that? By posting a status on Facebook? Really?
If enough people pretend it does something, maybe it will! /s

I'm pretty sure that people who are willing to go to such lengths to kill other people are going to want to still kill those people regardless of what they- and other people like them- do on social media (it might be a nice gesture, but it's still meaningless in the scheme of things compared to what those people could be doing to actually contribute, made worse by people who act like they are making a difference- essentially, the core of what people don't like about the "raising awareness" mentality- in fact, one could argue that such actions are part of the egoistic image of our society). Not to mention that there's probably many more reasons why they hate western society than what you stated.

Part of the whole reason (and it isn't only religious extremism IMO) that these horrific attacks were performed was because the West kept going into different parts of the Middle East for oils.
An example of this was/is Somalia. During the Cold War I think it was, the US was trying to train them to fight for us and defend our oil plants in Saudi Arabia. But then the Soviets were doing this as well; we were both arming them to the teeth and then we eventually both ditched the country entirely.
So we left Somalia armed to the teeth during its civil war, and now people wonder why you can't send humanitarian aid through the place without it getting raided.
Similar things happened in Iraq; we went in and destabilized the region on false premises (fun fact; most of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudis), took their oil, and left weapons wherever we retracted from.

Ok I get that it isn't the best alternative to bomb everything and everyone. And I HATE that, because this is how I think every time something like this happens, and I HATE that it doesn't work. It would be so nice and simple if that was the solution. And that something like "building a more equal society" and "working on integration" are better ways of handling the problem, and it's so fucking lame as a solution.

Before I knew it I was standing at the precipice of the first day of the last day of the middle part of my life. And I was looking out over the chasm of the great known part of the unknown I remember thinking to myself, "Self, we should probably get away from the edge, it seems a little dangerous and it's really high up." I slowly backed away, and I realized this was all a metaphor for my burgeoning acceptance of parenthood. I wasn't going to be a parent, but as time passed I slowly began to accept the idea that parents are a real thing that exists. I mean, it's a really ludicrous notion that two conscious beings could conspire to bring a life into this world and then be expected to take care of it for nearly twenty years, and then just die. Like, just don't do that and live forever! Besides, do you know how they make babies? I don't, but I assume it involves some black magic and a large supply of Pringles. I was never much of a Pringles fan, I was more of a Lays man, myself. But it's all a moot point because I don't eat food, at least not since the accident. It's a shame because I really enjoyed a good filet mignon before the accident, but at least now I have rocket legs. Of course in order to use them I'd need rocket grade fuel, and the prices for that have inflated by 1000% over the past ten years. Something to do with "regular people don't need rocket fuel." Tell that to the people with all the time-traveling jet-packs, NASA! What are you going to use it for, landing a remote controlled car on a space rock? Why not use it for something productive, like making more time-travelling jet-packs at an affordable price, so that the common everyday man can fly through time with ease. For five easy payments of $199,999.99, you too can zip through the space time continuum, just like Super Teddy Roosevelt, the first President of Space America! It's really easy to use, too. Just open the cap, peel back the foam, and before you know it you'll be in the year 112 AD, running from rogue group of Saxons in Southern London.

The only group I hate if any group is IS. And I think most people have more or less negative opinions on them because obvious reasons. There are other groups I dislike, which is very different from hate, which I don't even care mentioning because I don't want to cause any trouble.

The Islamophobic rhetoric and further comments in reaction to it.

What's been going on with all the acts of terrorism around the world is a tragedy, but NSM is not a platform for you to be a terrible person because of it. If you want to talk about how much you hate IS, or anybody else, do it on facebook, tumblr, or anywhere else on the internet; not here. This is not a place where you can vilify an entire race or population of people because of the actions of a single organization. Muslims didn't attack Paris, IS did. So get off your soapbox about how much you hate Muslims; there is no Islamic-based conspiracy to destroy the Western World. So grow up, knock off the hate speech, or you will be removed.

You may continue mourning the victims of these recent tragedies; any further hate speech, or subsequent vitriol in retaliation to it, will be met with warning and bans.

I didn't payed much attention to the pitch at first, I just arranged everything in a close key, in this case E-minor/G-major, with the idea that I can simply transposed it if it happens to be wrong. But now I starting to notice that it kind of is quite in between E-minor and Eb-minor :/, that's why it was so difficult arranging it and why it sounded SO dissonant when I compared to my computer piano.

If you wonder what song it is. It is Wild Arms 2 opening theme: "You'll Never Be Alone No Matter Where You Go".

Funnily enough, while in writing you NEVER see "IIII" for 4, on clocks, that's the proper way to write it. I don't know why that is, and no one I've asked seems to know either. But any clock or watch you find will have that.

I have traveled on that stretch of road hundreds of times in my life and NEVER seen traffic that bad... UGH I was so mad. There were no accidents, the weather was fine, there were just too many people on the road...
Plus I specifically left early so I would miss a snow storm, but later got in it anyway T_T

I fail to see your point.  Last time I checked, christmas was about Jesus' birth.  The rest of the stuff isn't necessary at all.  Sure it was adopted from a pagan holiday, but christmas wasn't.

Many holiday traditions have little connection in meaning to the religious attributions to the holiday. "Christmas" has a religious connotation for obvious reasons. But many of the ways it's celebrated have little to do with religion, though there has obviously been much overlap and mixing over the years.

My point was that the certain Christians who say Halloween is terrible because it's Pagan.
Christmas, as it is celebrated today with all the wreathes and baked foods and trees and all the things we do along with celebrating Christ's birth, you're celebrating a Pagan holiday.
Christ's birthday itself is also estimated by many historians to actually be in the spring; the reason so many holidays (Hannukah, Christmas and the rest) occur in this time is because they celebrate the winter solstice; the shortest day of the year.

I suppose you could think that if you consider the point to be "Christmas is a pagan holiday," which in itself is missing the point. Nobody (or rather, pretty much nobody, I suppose) celebrates Christmas with any pagan meanings in mind. It would thus be more appropriate to say something like "Christmas is a Christian holiday with some traditions that have pagan roots," which is also true of Halloween. However, the reason why many people might consider Halloween to be "more pagan" than Christmas is because Halloween isn't celebrating something overtly religious (what I mean by that specifically is that, if you ask people what Halloween is celebrating, chances are they won't be able to tell you :P).

You know, maybe there's a reason she's your ex. I'm not trying to imply anything about your character; I'm just saying you may need to think a bit about what happened between you two. If you haven't talked things out with her in detail, I recommend you find some way to get together and do that. Maybe there's a misunderstanding that got lost in translation. If she refuses to speak with you even after you offer to talk about it, that's her problem. There's no shame in trying.

As for your sister, maybe she's just busy? If she's really your best friend, she wouldn't just break off contact without a really good reason. Do some digging.

She says the breakup was bc of her previous relationship. She says that she still isn't over the guy and doesn't want to just sit there and lie to me and that she just won't talk to me bc it's too awkward.

Well, if that's how she feels, you should respect that and give her some time to reflect and eventually move on. That's probably the most loving thing you can do at the moment.

17 year olds can have jobs. Just list it as a potential possibility.

Also, maybe she's kinda like me in the way that she just doesn't like the idea of phone calls in general. Even if it was someone I love, I don't enjoy phone calls and usually can't sustain a conversation over the phone for over 5 minutes.

Copypasta from facebook:

"Well this is an interesting development.

After arriving at the airport 4 hours before my flight was set to depart, my original flight was delayed due to Spokane's extremely snowy weather, and then I ended up switching to an earlier flight that didn't end up leaving until over an hour after my initial flight was supposed to. As it was, I only had about 30 minutes MAXIMUM between my flight landing and my connection flight boarding, but that soon changed. We sat on the Tarmac for well over half-an-hour waiting for the plane to be de-iced, and by the time we took off, I had but minutes between the time my flight was to land and my connection's take-off.

By talking with my mom, I learned that if I were to miss this flight, then I would be stranded in Seattle until 6:00 am. In what seemed like a scene from an action movie, I busted a gut to get from one plane to the other, but I wasn't pushy enough getting off of the plane with all of my junk and I ended being about 30 seconds late for my connection. They had just released from the gate. I was...No, I am...stranded in Seattle.
They offered me a hotel with a shuttle, but I simply don't trust myself to wake up on time in order to get back here, etc and also I am terrible in TSA and I would much rather spend one night in an airport than have to uncheck my bags, recheck them and then go through THAT again. Jeez. Thank you to those who have offered to let me take shelter with them, though. The offer is VERY much appreciated, but I am in a mood. I have food vouchers, though! Dunno how they work, but there's a first time for everything!

How will I spend the next 6 hours? Who knows! Watching videos on the Internet. Playing video games. Writing. Eating. NOT SLEEPING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I CAN'T AFFORD TO MISS ANOTHER FLIGHT I JUST WANNA GO HOME."

lol well I'm done with flying around for now. But yeah I totally understand what you mean and it would be super fun, but the thing is that I was banking on sleeping on the plane that I missed, and I didn't trust myself enough to sleep in the airport and not miss my flight.

If I did have like a huge layover (and I wasn't y'know...alone), I'd be totally down for airport shenanigans, but I was also moving a lot of stuff from school because winter break and I just was not in the mood to be frivolous. I'm still not. I'm tried and cranky. Wah.

I may or may not of made a breakthrough, but I think this "attention" thing is what people in a community give each other. It also seems as if people need more of this "attention" when something bad happens, thus they post in this thread. Humans are just so mysterious sometimes.

You don't.

To use myself as an example: In high school I thought I'd want to teach math. However, shortly before applying for universities I figured out that math is too theoretical, I'd like to do something more practical. So I decided to apply to an university of technology. Which field should I choose? I don't know, electrical engineering could be interesting?

So now I am studying electrical engineering. Not sure why, but that appears to be the case now. Which major should I choose? Electronics sounds good, maybe that. A minor as well? Automation? Sure.

I've now studied in the university for three years. I need a job. Turns out that this department of radio engineering has a trainee position open. Oh, there are several positions. I need to rank them in order I would prefer. RFID...? Let's just put RFID as the preferred option.

Oops. Turns out radio engineering is damn interesting. Electronics and automation? Meh. Better switch my major to radio engineering. Oh? Apparently there is still work available in the research group. Might as well continue working there. Hm, it appears I've graduated. A PhD position you say? Right now that sounds like the best idea ever.

So here I am, working to become Dr. Jamaha. In 3-4 years I should defend my dissertation and then what? A post-doc in a foreign university? R&D in some of the large telecommunications companies? Found a company? I don't have the slightest idea (well, I do, but I don't know how well that translates to reality in 4 years), and that's okay.

In my opinion you don't really need to have a grand plan for your life. Just keep doing things you think you'd like and you hopefully drift to a place in life where you are happy.

There's a reason that the average college student switches majors so many times. It's because we're expected to make major life and career decisions when we're 16-17 and that's just ridiculous. You not knowing what you want yet is normal and okay. Everything will turn out fine.

Heh I changed my major from physics to biology to chemistry. Something like that, I ended up majoring in chemistry and I changed majors each time I changed schools because I didn't like the previous one. At least you stuck with some kind of engineering. Since I had so many credits from my previous majors and schools, I ended up with two minors too xD But I still wasn't 100% sure what I wanted to do after I graduated from college so I took some part time jobs to earn money while I figure things out while I do chemistry problems all day and grade stuff.

From the tons of chemistry topics I found interesting, I'm still stuck between the following:

Inorganic chemistry
 -material science
Theoretical chemistry
 -quantum chemistry
 -astrochemistry*
 -nuclear chemistry
Computational chemistry
 -astrochemistry
 -mapping proteins/bioinformatics**
Nuclear chemistry
 -studying radioactive waste

*Astrochemistry sounds like a new thing or at least, no one's told me that existed in my first year of college. I heard of astrobiology around that time though. A recent article I read about the subject involves studying spectra (astronomers do this already) or studying exotic molecules that exist in space as far as we know
**My professor's idea, I think this is too practical for me

**mapping out these molecules, needs lots of computational skills which I don't think I have yet

Even in college, I only got the chance to do research in biochemistry/nanomaterials (I learned this wasn't my thing) and astronomy (far more interesting). I guess I won't actually get a chance to study the stuff I like until graduate school which is why I should go -.-

I'm nowhere near where you are, but if it's any condolence, I've found that typically our self perceived "progression" (as opposed to the constant passing of time that would technically count as progression) doesn't go up in a linear pattern or a fixed rate of progression. It's more like this:


                  -------------------------------
                 l
                l
               l

1. Yeah they're gonna be slightly better looking online, but that shouldn't be a problem if you have more interest in that person than just a specific standard of beauty. And if you're just looking for someone hyper-attractive along with having a good personality and being similar to you... then you're being way too picky to ever realistically expect to have a significant other. If all you care about is looks then don't expect to have any long term relationships.

2. Asking your friends to set you up isn't any better, at least with online dating you have some idea of who the person is before you meet them.

There are plenty of reasons to not do online dating. In many cases it's not reliable, and there are obviously people out there who abuse the system. But I meant to say that it shouldn't be the social stigma that deters people.

While one shouldn't lower their standards, their standards also shouldn't be unreasonably high to begin with in the first place; you'll never get anywhere.
There seems to be this misnomer that if you sign up for a dating site, you go on a date with this person only after seeing pictures; not the case with most sites. Many sites enable you to talk with the person so you have a general idea of who you're talking with before you meet them, and it's not as if you're obligated to meet a person if you have any doubts about them in the first place. Meeting people is the first step.

That's just your pessimistic attitude first of all, there's about 7.4 billion people on this planet so one of them could very well be the one, and it's also worth pointing out how standards are never set in stone, they could very well change if you meet a certain person.

I'm not the one to give pro tips about life but I don't think anyone should ever feel the need to have someone by your side to feel complete, there's nothing but misery to be found at the end of that road

You aren't going to meet 7.4 billion people in your lifetime, not counting how many of those are of your preferred gender (assuming you have a preference), or are of an age that you could actually have a relationship, assuming you're okay with moving across the world as well). It's true though that standards do change. But you can't expect a perfect person; even when people find their soul mate, I doubt anyone could honestly call the one they love the most perfect. What I was saying is again, not to lower your standards or what have you, but to make sure you're not so busy seeing if they fit the mold that you don't actually give people a chance.
That said, I'm only (a couple weeks away from) 15. So my view on this is likely to change... but this is what makes the most sense to me.

It's not that you'd meet 7.4 bil people, it's that you have the potential to meet the one out of those 7.4 bil people. Like you seem to understand, the preferences change(gender for example, like you mentioned). That also includes when you're in a relationship, your preferences can also adapt to the person you're with. Because there's no one else who can define who is perfect to you but you yourself. That's why no can say to you if you should raise or lower your expectations.
I completely get where you're coming from, but people shouldn't worry about someone fitting your mold in the first place! Like, chill, relax, if you meet someone you meet someone! If you don't, that's completely fine too.

except no one said anything like this, nice way to twist words to mean what you want them to mean. no one even said anything about marriage. ._.'

What I meant was when a relationship is based on something else than happiness. Finding a partner for the sake of having a partner, lying about feeling love so that it would look like you have it isn't right for anyone, even your partner.
Ninja'd, yeah pretty much exactly what I meant.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on December 29, 2015, 01:26:45 PM@FireArrow you're wrong and no one should lower their standards. That's how unhappy relationships start.

I agree if you're talking about personality, same-mindedness, etc. You should never settle for someone who you don't like as a person.

However, standards based upon sexual attraction, race, bodily traits, etc. are superficial and shallow. Obviously you shouldn't date someone you find repulsive or unattractive, but not dating someone because their physique isn't that of your dream man/woman is only gonna end up with you being forever alone (or maybe you'll get really lucky I guess? Ya never know.) Plus we'll all get old and ugly in 20 years anyways.

Quote from: Waddle Bro on December 29, 2015, 04:20:41 PMThat's just your pessimistic attitude first of all, there's about 7.4 billion people on this planet so one of them could very well be the one, and it's also worth pointing out how standards are never set in stone, they could very well change if you meet a certain person.

The idea of "the one" is extremely flawed. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeZMIgheZro) There's gonna be a hell of a lot half-perfect people for you, but there isn't gonna be a one true love because our fantasy significant other is usually inhumanly desirable and ya know, humans aren't perfect. Even if there was a perfect person out there, your 7.4 billion figure works against you as chances are you ain't gonna meet them.

I don't know why people think there is this one other person for them. It's just what you want at the moment, you could want someone else later. I remember in high school...my sister had a crush on this guitarist guy that was in my class. I found him really boring and not at all good looking. Now she's with someone completely different. Knowing what you want just narrows down the number of people, it doesn't make you picky. (Unless you only want to date people with red hair or something...that's being picky)

Post by: MaestroUGC on December 30, 2015, 11:26:57 AM
On the matter of "standards" when seeking a potential mate:

Everybody has two levels of ideals: The first is "The utmost ideal", that great fantasy of "the one", your "perfect 10/10". In your mind you know exactly what this person would look like superficially, and you'll likely have a good idea as to what other characteristics they will have. This is the person you imagine when ever you think about "the person I'll marry", "the future parent of my children". This may be a real person you're pining for, or just an imagined ideal that you measure everyone you meet against. And yes, you do measure everyone you know against this ideal because the basest human prerogative to find a mate and propagate. It's one of the first things that flashes to your mind whenever you meet someone knew, and that moment they'll either be dismissed immediately for whatever reasons. (Not the appropriate gender I'm looking for/too old/not a better alternative to someone I'm already with/etc.) If they pass that first litmus test then you will begin to mull over whether or not it will be worthwhile to pursue them in a romantic/sexual sense.

Which brings us to the second ideal: "Who I can reasonably imagine being with". This is a matter of self-worth and self-confidence. In you mind you know what your "10" is, but the reality of whatever expectations you have or know invariably lower your standards to a "7" or someone you're comfortable "settling with". Sure, you can see the lovely ingénue in the distance, but you just can't compel yourself to pursue that potential so you settle for Mary Beth whom you know is a much safer bet against potential dejection. In most cases this ends up being the person you'll end up with, not because of anyone's fault or an inherent unfairness of the universe but just because of human nature. We're designed to go for the safest of two options.

Now this gap between the two will obviously vary between people, and in fact in some people their self-confidence is already so high for whatever reason or aren't afraid of rejection that they just hold out for their 10; but as time wears on standards will invariably slip, depending on the person. This isn't meant to be a discouragement from dating, just a precaution of having the wrong mindset. In most cases "the one" simply does not exist, or if they do the statistical odds of meeting them are nearly impossible for most people. Of course it's all moot if you don't put in the effort to bother dating. And of course how you meet someone is irrelevant to the act of actually meeting them; so online dating, having a friend set you up, or just a chance encounter at a coffee shop is all fair game when it comes to dating. Just be wary of your own self-worth; you're only as good a person and potential mate as you see fit. Keep in mind that the person behind the counter you're flirting with is going through the exact same process above at the same time.

i was never *great* at the harmonic stuff... i'm doing some practicing on teoria.com

and would you believe i can't even hear fucking intervals properly

i cannot for the life of me distinguish between m6 and M6 and for whatever fucking reason i keep confusing them with p4 and p5

i hate 6ths

i Hate 6ths

god i hate 6ths

edit: oh yeah and my guitar teacher assigned me to figure out the chords to beach boys' "god only knows" by ear but i ended up cheating on that because i couldn't tell what was going on sometimes bc i'm a miserable failure of a music theorist :^) (i'm in a bad place rn can u tell)

That's rough. I know that I'm horrible at hearing intervals as well. It's definitely something that can be helped with practice, though, and with the effort you're putting in I'm sure you'll improve eventually. I'm sure you'll get into a good grad school because your sheets are great, and you obviously know what you're talking about, too. ;D

If you're better at identifying chords, then use that skill to relate chords to intervals. For example, a perfect fifth outlines a major triad in any key.

If you haven't already, I recommend going to those practice websites and practicing recognizing intervals for ten minutes a day. I'm not the best person to ask since I've never had any trouble with ear training stuff, but a LOT of the other undergrads I know do and the ones who practice do see a lot of improvement.

ok let's put it this way, the theory + sightsinging/ear training professor was a wonderful lady and we all learned but she didn't have a theory background so she didn't really stress the importance of sightsinging/ear training the way the current professor (whom i haven't had a class with bc i finished my theory requirements before he showed up) does, as a result we had a very very lax time in ear training

also yea i even know like how perfect 5ths are part of triads etc but without another note i still can't tell the difference between it and a perfect 4th lmao

Good luck Altissimo! Depending on how much time you have to figure out the intervals, a quick fix could be to try and identify each individual note and figure out the interval based on stuff like twinkle twinkle little star. Eventually I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out just by listening to the dyad

And when I press up, it hardly responds. That means that I can't really perform Up or Down Smash Attacks on SSB43DS, it'll mostly do tilts or makes me crouch forever.

So I figured after 12+ years of playing an instrument I should prob learn a little bit of the music theory behind it, so I took the only legit class offered to me. Putting aside that the teacher is new to the job, arrogant, and easily distracted by his own amazing guitar skills, I'm beginning to feel that theory is somewhat...irrelevant? I'm not trying to be one of those music elitists who say things like "music is all expression you shouldn't try and tie it down to theory and rules blah blah" because I do see the necessity to a certain degree. From playing piano for so long I've naturally picked up on a lot of what is being taught, but since I didn't know the "official" terms for these things I thought of them more of "oh these notes and chords go together nicely" instead of "this is a dominant followed by a major tonic creating a perfect authentic cadence". (side note I HATE cadences--why does every note progression have to be boxed in with a specific name like phrygian or whatever, why can't they just be notes)

I see theory as a set definition of a part of musical structure, which should aim to eventually be subconsciously referred to by a performer or composer. For example, its taught that major scales follow the step pattern of WWHWWWH. The person learning it isn't going to repeat that in their heads for the rest of their lives every time they play a scale, its supposed to become somewhat second nature. So since I already have that second nature feeling towards a lot of what is being taught and am being asked to memorize the original structures, I feel like I'm almost reverse learning maybe?

tl;dr!!! Basically what I'm wondering is if there's a point where the usefulness of theory is overshadowed by the specifics and definitions that seem almost made up to explain why a piece of music flows. I know theory is really important in all types of music, but is there a point where it just goes too far just to be all encompassing?



...or this could all be redirected disapproval for my teacher's personality lol what a narcissist

I think there's a point. Or, maybe it's more like a large smear because it's not so well-defined. But on one side of the point, we're lost without the specifics, and on the other side, the specifics get in the way. That point changes between different people and circumstances. So, if you've found where that point is for you, I don't think it's a bad thing.

Music theory is only really needed for composition, though it does make arranging (particularly those chords you've always said you stuggle with!) loads easier. As for performing, it helps to know what goes on in a sonata, fugue, etc. is before you play one.

Oh yeah the chords are really helpful so far, that was my main reason for taking this class. There's just a lot of extra fluff thrown into the lessons that bothers me and that I can't see being useful for anything besides giving things definitions

Quantum Field Theory.

Also music theory is infinitely helpful for understanding on any level how music works. It's not strictly necessary or word of God, exactly, but I wouldn't write it off like that. There are a LOT of incredible benefits that come with an understanding of music theory.

Well, when things get more complicated how else could they build on a previous concept if it wasn't defined beforehand? I'm sure a lot of people understand the concept of addition before it's presented to them in school, but that doesn't make it any less necessary to teach.

@Discussion on music theory- It's a great tool for memorization and performance, and as Slow said there is an enormous slew of benefits that come with memorizing it (not least composing and analysis of various composer's styles). There's a reason they have you do a lot of it at conservatories.

If you play with your earbuds, like spinning the wire, or you frequently rip them out accidentally, you shouldn't spend more than $15 on earbuds. They might sound worse to some people's ears, but it's better than spending lots of money to replace them.

If you just use earbuds to their death, spend more money on a single pair that's durable. You'll end up saving money from buying new ones.

They're just alright (so descriptive). They've certainly improved on them with the newer design, and they are inexpensive because of the materials, but (at least in my experience) they're very uncomfortable if they're in for long periods of time. They also have a big problem with sound leakage compared to most in-ear stuff. When I'm listening to something I like to feel vaguely isolated, and they don't really work so well. Because of the price, it's certainly not a bad idea to have a pair, but I can't enjoy using them compared to most in-ears, and I'd gladly pay a few dollars extra for a style I consider better.

Ninja'd by Slow's much more concise answer. But verbosity.

Also (though I'll admit that audiophiles do make up a portion of people with this opinion), just because lots of people like something doesn't make it better than the alternatives (yes, you, MacBook supremacists).

You can get low priced Sennheiser IEMs that will perform far better (<$30) and if you're willing to spend $50-90 you will have a world of a difference.

Go higher than that and we can start having some real conversations about quality audio ;)

Playing the game over and over again and looking up all the starts, and probably using a Chinese version of the game, lol.

Still there is a difference since playing smash you play against another player, so you have to both know the game and know the player. I play like smash every day but still suck, you apparently don't learn much from playing against bots or by yourself.

AI will always be inferior to human players because their tactics are predictable. Even if you don't realize you're predicting them.

for the most part a level 9 computer will always be harder for me to beat than an average human player unless I use that stupid ness soft lock thing

As far as speedruns go watch Zelda II speedruns and be amazed.  Shovel Knight speedruns are also cool to watch, especially the 100% ones

There's this "learning AI" that was used to play Super Mario World that I found interesting. While it doesn't play the game the most efficiently, it starts from having no idea how to play the game to rushing straight through levels. Not strictly relevant, but something I found interesting regardless.

Although computers can have more "brainpower" than humans, it's not fully utilized in video game AI since it would probably be unnecessary, would take up a lot of space, would take plenty of time to program in, etc. Plus, people like games where they can win, no? That's not to say that the developers of a game could take some time to integrate more sophisticated AI.

the reason chess is such a great example is because the AI can perform ridiculous amounts of algorithms to discover any number of winning patterns based on the current game state.

Just thought of doing a quicky arrangement before going to bed so I thought of doing Journey to Chaos from Castlevania II: Belmont's revenge. And y.. annoying song, those 8-bit canon-echo-thing songs are really annoying and troublesome. You know the songs which have a melody and then and dotted 8th in the same melody comes in like a canon or echo or something. Really tough making a good arrangement, since you have to make it so it fits nice with both hands, and so the hands doesn't collide. This arrangement will take some more time it seems...

Well great. Running antivirus software to absolutely kill it. In the meantime, I've found out it's essentially a program that tracks every single application and keystroke you send through your computer, and sends this information back to an unidentifiable server.. Lovely.

^ Tried it, didn't work. But the antivirus did, and I got it off my computer hopefully before it did too much damage.

Other rant:
Alright friendly friends, let's talk about Satanism.
"WHAT?!" I hear you incredulous guys and gals saying.
But that's the issue; Satanism is immediately thought of as inherently horrible or immoral. And while it's true that Satanism refers to all religions based around the character of Satan, few people who self describe as Satanists are actually theistic.
Most satanists that you'll meet are probably LaVeyan satanists.
Wikipedia has:
"LaVeyan Satanism is a religious philosophy founded in 1966 by Anton LaVey, codified in The Satanic Bible and overseen by the Church of Satan. Its core philosophy is based concepts of individualism, egoism, epicureanism, self-deification and self-preservation (. . . )."
Furthermore, from Wiki:
"Contrary to popular belief, LaVeyan Satanism does not involve "devil worship" or worship of any deities. It is an atheistic philosophy that asserts the individual as his or her own god. Adherents instead see the character of Satan as an archetype of pride, carnality, liberty, enlightenment, undefiled wisdom, and of a cosmos which Satanists perceive to be motivated by a 'dark evolutionary force of entropy that permeates all of nature and provides the drive for survival and propagation inherent in all living things'."
So please, when you label anyone who self defines as a Satanist, ask them if they actually work the Devil or if they are just LaVeyan Satanists. There's a huge difference between the two.
It's also worth noting that the word "satan" is simply a Latin word for "foe". Meaning, it's not inherently religious.
Alright I'm out

There is a lovely device called a forum ban for people who make openly inflammatory remarks.
If this were anti-gay sentiment, anti-Muslim sentiment, or anti-Christian sentiment, would we let it go? No, we wouldn't, and rightfully so. There of course can be criticisms of all of the above if you're actually hurting someone (with the obvious caveat of being gay not being at all harmful provided both parties consent).

Example, shmexample. You could have made a conscious decision to just let Noc's comment slide, but you decided to do this the hard way and take it as an attack on you.

You could have made a conscious decision to just let Noc's comment slide, but you decided to do this the hard way and take it as an attack on you. And I don't believe he's the only one who makes "blanket statements about a point of view." We all do that, and calling someone else out on it doesn't make you look any better.
Let's play the equivalence game.
Let's pretend what he said was anti gay.
Quotebeing gay is as confusing as believing the earth is flat
Would we tolerate this?
Pretty should we wouldn't.
QuoteYou could have made a conscious decision to just let Noc's comment slide, but you decided to do this the hard way and take it as an attack on you.
All I did was ask him not to make purposefully inflammatory posts.
QuoteAnd I don't believe he's the only one who makes "blanket statements about a point of view." We all do that, and calling someone else out on it doesn't make you look any better.
While that's true, why does that make what he did any more acceptable?
The fact that the response is "you should've let it slide" when Noc put the time and effort into typing a purposefully inflammatory response and "you've been given a warning" when I make a satirical equivalence for the purpose of argument is a clear double standard.

I am fairly certain that literally nobody else read that as a purposefully inflammatory response. Noc was expressing how atheism is confusing for him personally. Please stop taking every comment along those lines as a personal attack. If Noc had said the same thing using the word gay then the same actions would still be taken.

How is it confusing? Take the way you feel about girls, and imagine that feeling that towards a guy. It's exactly the same feeling with a different gender on the other end. Oh, and being gay isn't all about sex if you're referring to something less pg13...

LOLOLOLOL it's impossible to eliminate all bias, but maybe finding someone as unbiased as possible is a good start. Such as hiring police officers that aren't racist idiots might reduce the amount of fatally shooting of particular groups of Americans. They just won't treat people the same way because of the racism!

I hate coriander, but other people love it. It's this gene I'm missing, and probably because I've never eaten it at all as a kid.

Quote from: InsigTurtle on February 01, 2016, 11:32:15 PMi am a guy and i can confirm that guys are gross

I've noticed that guys are much less gross if they grew up with their sisters (who probably tell them how bad they smell all the time xD).

So I also have a friend that's probably still mad at me, but my good friend actually understands why! After yelling at me and stomping out of that yogurt shop, then telling the good friend that she "broke off the friendship" with me, she texts me again after several months telling me to be there for her medical thing later today. I told her I couldn't take off work so soon, even though I'm actually sick right now, since I've just taken a week off for a trip to Austria. She said I could have taken work anyway (to the good friend). NO and I'm still not taking any days off for that cold. I just huddle in the corner and try not to breathe or cough on anyone.

What I didn't tell her was that dahans had something important on the same day that was also worrying him, and I offered to change my flight plans for him. Then I tried to cheer him up for two hours.

I carried an umbrella around all day yesterday when the weather was beautiful. So today, I didn't bring one. Then I was caught in a sudden downpour while wearing fancy clothes.

Also, I like puddles. Puddles are redeeming. I don't mind getting wet so much if I can only splash in a puddle.

Arranging Sky chapel from Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance. Quite tedious song with a bass line without any rhythmical or melodic pattern, which bass lines usually have, beyond following the melody to a certain extent. Castlevania: Harmony of dissonance songs are quite tricky to arrange I noticed after doing some. Many are quite dissonant, not using common harmonies/chords, also very chromatic and also tricky rhythms and stuff. But after I finished this I think I'm done with the game (I have arranged all the "good" songs from the game, except maybe Lydie Erlangers theme, and the Castle theme).

Well just when I was feeling happy my stalker came back to follow me all over the internet again. (Eternal Memories I pretty much hints at who she is for those really wanting to know, as I don't want to restate how bad she is). God damn it, now I have to lay low, and just when I was upgrading my website, too... Sorry guys, but I need to be quiet on here for a while, even more so than I am already...

PS: No, the police can't help as Law Enforcement is worthless unless it becomes physical, which I'm afraid it will be if she gets more obsessed with me. My grandparents and I just have to pray that she'll give up...

Also, before anyone tries to play detective while I'm in hiding, don't, as it's nobody on NSM (Yet at least, she hasn't found this place or joined it which is good so far...) Again, I sincerely apologize for my sudden leave. What a way to ruin the weekend...

I almost died at her hands when I lived with her for the first eight years of my life, and she's very deceptive and downright distrubing.

Definitely call police. The worst they can do is turn you away, but you could probably file for a restraining order, so that if she does come near you you have immediate legal reason for her punishment.

You guys...it could be his mother or something like that (based on the knowledge that he lived with her for eight years and now lives with his grandparents), in which case it'd be difficult to get the law to help separating them.

The thing is, if it is that, the law does not typically separate mothers from their children, and if there hasn't been physical abuse, the possibility that the other forms of abuse won't be taken as seriously is very real. So we need to let him and his grandparents decide what to do.

CPS is a thing. And most places they still take verbal/emotional abuse very seriously (I only know because my parents have had CPS called on them, lol).

EDIT: This situation is more or less private-ish now. You can get an idea on what's happening from the other folks on this thread, but just as a precaution I'm editing this post so that in case someone finds this site, they won't know what I'm talking about. So I guess I'll just leave something random just in case this someone would relate to and (by a sheer stroke of luck) leave me alone.

So um, Hungry Articuno I guess, gotta eat dinner today

Oh my god.

TDH, that's...ugh. I don't hate a lot of people (like, legitimately hate to the point of not caring for their existence), but I think I hate your mother. Rest assured that we're all here to protect you and stop her if she ever finds you here. Banhammers are fun. :3

I'd look into what people have said about restraining orders and see how far those extend in terms of social interaction. This woman needs to be out of your life as soon as possible. Hopefully, she'll be stupid enough to do something incredibly illegal so that she can be out of your hair once and for all.

It turns my stomach thinking that people like that actually exist in the world. Disgusting.

Damn.
Yeah, I'd look into a restraining order, and also take some self defense classes. Not necessarily because you need to beat up your mother, but more so that you feel more prepared. I almost never advocate violence, but in this case, if it's in self defense, as far as I'm concerned (and I realize that has little impact) you're good.

You should do whatever makes you feel safe. You control your life no matter what she might threaten. You have your grandparents, friends, and an entire internet community backing you. Circumstances are unfortunate sometimes, but you obviously learned to handle it much better than most people could have. In my opinion, it's amazing that you can do so much on the internet with something like this happening, and I've got a lot of respect for you because of that.

umm if the local police aren't helping report it to the goddamn fbi or something and make sure to report your police's failings too

seriously there's a lot of fuken other places you can go than just the local police. like here try this (http://www.d2l.org/site/c.4dICIJOkGcISE/b.6035035/k.8258/Prevent_Child_Sexual_Abuse.htm#.VsmvPSlvbQI) or this (https://report.cybertip.org/), these may not be exactly what you're looking for but idk

seriously ok i know you're like "well the local police dont' want to help" but christ in a goddamn can that is seriously a failing on their part and i feel like you need to make someone, anyone, aware of how they've fucked up and get this situation resolved.

second of all delete that post, you never know how easy some of that info might be to identify you as you.

third of all, we had some speakers come to my psychology class last semester to talk about child abuse/sexual abuse and that's how i found those two websites. i still have their contact information. they take this shit seriously. if you would like i could easily email them and begin a dialogue with them, or give their information to you, so that you can talk with someone who Gives A Shit and actually get something done that doesn't involve the local police being [words that do not exist because they are harsher than anything the English language can produce]

i'm 100% serious about all this because if there is one thing, one goddamn thing i will never fucking forgive as long as i live in this universe it is people not taking claims of child abuse seriously.

and it has literally nothing to do with personal experiences i'm just that passionate about the subject because of my views on life

edit: oh yes you might want to consider going to see a psychologist/psychiatrist as well, such abuse can have some serious effects on the brain (as you've intimated is the case) - not just Weird Shit but also like depression etc and psychological help might be beneficial. they also might be people trained to listen and take action in the case of abuse!!!

Thanks for the advice everyone yet again, especially you.

I'll take your suggestion of erasing the post for now in case she finds this place and tries to use it against me. For folks who aren't in the know, they could PM me if they want, or just simply hope for the best.

In the meantime, I plan to keep a good eye out, and if she tries again to follow me/my activities, then I may go to one of the tip line places to ask for advice.

Trust me, if any major developments happen, I'll let you guys here on NSM know.

Child abuse, sexual or non, is an issue I take very seriously and very personally. I literally don't even have a reason to take it personally but I do. That's why I got so worked up over this.

UPDATE: (Already? Yes already)

By some grace of Arceus/Lillian/God, it seems my mother unsubscribed to me just a short while ago. My youtube channel lost a sub and when I checked my list, she was gone. I don't know if she read my post or not (I hope not as that would be fuel for her site), but for the meantime, she's left me alone, for know.

Unfortunately, like a Hydra with an infinite amount of heads, she'll inevitably come back and try this all over again. I don't know if that would be this week or fifty years from now, but I still am nervous and will have to remain on guard.

Once again, thanks to everyone for your support, and if anything else happens, I'll let you know. In the meantime, I'll try to play some GBA Fire Emblem to relax and get my mind off of this. Here's hoping for a week without worry for me, at least for now...

One issue resolved, another issue starts. Don't worry, it's nothing to do with mom this time.

Rather, to save you all the story, I'll just say that I wasted my sweet time waiting for a fedex truck at 8 PM because of false hope and I've never felt so hateful in my entire life having a package not show up because it never existed. Seriously I feel like an idiot as I got so desperate that I looked underneath everything on my porch in hopes that I would find what I would have been scheduled to get today.

Is that in reference to me? I certainly hope not, as quite frankly that's not really courteous, and I'm 18 for the record...

Though thankfully, it seems that 12 hours of sleep + a pleasant dream I had made me almost entirely lose all my anger with the subject. Just like I said, it was mostly minor, and minor problems are something that it seems we all deal with in our lives. I just realized that I double posted instead of edit in my anger, which makes me feel dumb lol. Edited the first post but left the second for those curious on what sleep deprivation+ some minor issues would equal for someone. Thankfully I'm better after well deserved sleep

That's literally what I felt like this week. Just don't stay up too late and sleep tons to avoid being like I did (though even with my bad sleep, I did pass my midterm but barely). You can do it, you just need to relax and not focus on it all the time. Obviously studying is good, but you also need to allow yourself to sleep, too.

https://mobile.twitter.com/Lisadiazis THIS IS THE NEW TWITTER ACCOUNT SHE MADE. THIS IS WHERE SHE'S TRYING TO FOLLOW ME THIS TIME. I'VE HAD ENOUGH AND I'M NOT RUNNING AWAY ANYMORE.

I've had enough, so I sent her a tweet telling her to stop. Hopefully she can delete that dreadful site once and for all! For those with a twitter, either report her for harassment/tell her to leave me alone. I've done it already, and her site seems to indicate that she saw NSM. No holding back, this ends now. I'll update you as soon as I'm able... I'm not hiding anymore. I'm 18, I'm a man, so I must take my dad's advice and engage in our final confrontation!

I did share the more in-depth details with some skype friends. Thankfully, it seems to be overall resolved. For now at least. I am aware that she could easily forget about this and come back, perhaps with a "clever" nickname (Maybe "Kagome", pretending to be her favorite anime character? IDK). Still, I have all the evidence I need and we'll investigate the details tomorrow morning. Overall, I feel pretty relieved...

So, since this is a music forum, I'll just link appropriate music

Because believe it or not, Medicare for all, investing in infrastructure, breaking up Goldman Sachs, universal education, etc., has proven time and time again all over the world to be a good thing for humanity.
@Altissimo Don't lose hope entirely; Bernie may well have won Illinois (and if he didn't he lost by an extremely small margin). In addition, Hillary's momentum could easily soon run out; her best areas are in the South, where Bernie is relatively unknown. But as the calendar goes on, it gets more progressive.
But just watch, soon Fox News and CNN and the lot will immediately declare Clinton the inevitable nominee while they were relatively silent when Bernie won Michigan in a historic primary upset.

Here are my thoughts on what FA just said:
This is true. My rationale:
Trump says that a lot of democrats are switching over to the republican side because of him. I can't help but wonder, though, if those people will just switch back in the regular election & vote Clinton.

Now, my thoughts on the topic in general: a Republican has to win (preferably other than Trump). I've grown up in a coal mining family (don't plan to continue that legacy, but still), and to see the democrats mercilessly rip and claw at the industry like they have/are/will do, that is HIGHLY perturbing. Sure, I'm all for finding a clean energy source. But when it is found AND STABILIZED, the coal miners need to be the first ones to get a job in that area for all the crap they've had to deal with in the past 4-8 years.

Coal mining is really dying (how much more coal can you get?), and a clean source HAS been found, it's just that *some politicians* are going out of their way to block the needed investments in that because they've been bought by the coal and oil companies. If you want a job in clean energy, get an education and some new skills, you can't really expect a coal miner to suddenly be able to install solar cells. Right now, you're just asking for a handout and the first in line for a place where you don't have skills in. But guess who else doesn't care you can't afford college?

Not according to most head to head polls.
According to RealClearPolitics' average of polls, (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/2016_presidential_race.html) here's how Clinton and Sanders stack up against Republican candidates.
FYI: All polls used for the average are provided in the link above.
Clinton vs Trump: As of the 6th, Clinton wins by an average of about 6(.3) points.

Sanders vs Trump: As of the 6th, Sanders wins by an average of 10 points.
Clinton vs Cruz: As of the 6th, Clinton loses by an average of .8 points; note: this is technically within the margin of error of almost any of the polls conducted.

Sanders vs Cruz: As of Feb. 27th, Sanders wins by an average of just under ten (9.7) points.
Clinton vs Rubio:As of the 6th, Clinton loses by an average of 4 points.

Sanders vs Rubio: As of Feb. 27th, Sanders wins by an average of just over 3(.3) points.
Clinton vs Kasich: As of Feb. 17th, Clinton loses by an average of over 7(.4) points.

Sanders vs Kasich: As of Feb. 15th, Sanders wins by an average of half a point. (Note: while this seems small, note that in the only two polls done for this matchup, Kasich wins within the margin of error, but Sanders wins and exceeds the margin of error).


Hillary isn't more electable when you pit her up against everyone else; not to mention the baggage of the email scandal and a potential indictment.

There is some bias in polls, yes, in that they're conducted via landlines which are more common among certain demographics (ie older people). That said, they tend to be a good tool for guessing, and since these are fairly recent (with the exception of the Kasich polls) they're hardly the worst thing to base it off of.
Also bear in mind that, again with the exception of Kasich, the numbers I gave are averages of 3 or more sources.

Polls also suggest Kasich as the highest chance of beating Clinton of all the republicans. I'm saying Bernie has less of a chance of winning simply because he's so far left that I think people in the middle will be reluctant to vote for him. Then again, if people in the middle voted Trump over Bernie because "socialism" then I have no faith in America anyways.

"im gay"
I didn't realize answering this would be difficult, lol.
I guess I've been attracted to guys and not girls since puberty, but I wouldn't admit it to myself for a while after that, let alone to anyone else.
I know it's different for other people, some don't realize it even until college.

It doesn't help that I was dating a girl from 8th to 10th grade. She was attractive and cute, but I never thought of her sexually, only romantically, about our future, etc.
Back then the idea of dating a guy kind of weirded me out a lot and I wasn't really comfortable with it. But now, more importantly, I think trying to date a girl would be lying about what I feel and who I am.

Something especially important to me that I've thought about for a long time are friends and family that might not be okay with it. I know some people react by saying "if they treat you any worse, you need better friends," or something along those lines.
However, I value friendship a lot more than expressing myself. If I think "being gay" would most definitely make someone uncomfortable, then I don't see any reason to say it, unless I feel some sort of obligation due to my connection with that person.
I don't know which people won't be okay with it, since I can't know unless I tell everybody. In the same way, I'm not willing to give up a good friendship just to try to date someone (for instance, if I can't guarantee our friendship if something goes wrong.)

Another value I really focus on is openness, and this is the /one/ thing I haven't been open about with everyone, my close friends, my family, etc.
So... either I really trust you guys, or I'm really tired of not being able to express myself to the people I care about, or some combination of both.

Yeah I know, but the people I hang out with on a regular basis at the moment would /probably/ be okay with it so the ones that are closer to me could probably guess based on some hints I throw like "I would marry Kaden but Corrin isn't gay enough"

Unless they're hyper conservative, people will usually have much less of a reaction than you'd think. For me it was mostly shock/disbelief at first and then they never brought it up again. Some people were just kinda like "oh" and went along their merry way as if I said nothing. I did a good job of surrounding myself with tolerant people before hand though, so my experience is probably different than a lot of others.

And, yeah, I get what you mean about not telling people. I have a couple friends that I've never told and probably never will, mostly because neither of us gain anything from it and I don't want to loose a friendship over it. On the other side of the coin, I wouldn't keep it from people who you talk to about relationship/sex/love with. Sitting back going "...yeah" while they talk about your future girlfriend isn't really good for you and they'd probably be insulted if they thought you didn't trust them enough to tell them or something.

Nah I have quite a lot of friends whose parents legit refuse to acknowledge or talk about their homosexuality, it's more common in the area I live for it not to be taken seriously.

I live in a slightly conservative area and so most of the religious people here either mind their own business or are passive aggressive, so yeah what you said applies to me I guess. Any gay person who has the misfortune of living with either a hyper conservative family or community pretty much is living in one of those movies.

And I wouldn't call homophobic religious people as being raised to be accepting (since they're homophobic...), since the mindset is more along the lines "they may be inferior and lesser than you, but still be nice to them" which is tolerance at best. Only people, religious or not, who don't deem homosexuality as less than heterosexuality have the right to claim to be accepting.

Rant/My Life Sucks:

The original date for when our moving stuff was predicted to come was this Tuesday. It got extended to Friday. And turns out it's extended again to after next tuesday.

Why I'm salty:
I gotta sleep on the floor for another week.
My poor guitars are getting dryer by the day.
My inability to use my computer is driving me half insane.
I don't want to eat instant ramen noodles for another week.
I'm feeling impatient and want to set up my room

Waiting an extra 3 days was frustrating enough but how am I supposed to okay with the stuff being over a week late from the original arrival date? Ugh

tl;dr: I moved but the stuff is coming late and I'm salty

I think the word you're looking for is "imperfect." Even Christians/religious people have their flaws and all flaws should be treated equally. Some people (usually holier-than-thou Christians) have this preconceived notion that certain groups people are inherently more evil than others, and while this may be true from the standpoint of laws or how many laws someone has broken, it's not true from a sense of perfection. Nobody's perfect. If you acknowledge that, then you have an easier time getting along with people whose lifestyles you don't agree with. ...does that make sense? It's a little weird to explain.

That's the idea that I have:
We all sin, no matter what. A sin of stealing or disrespecting elders, for example, may not neccesarily be any better than the sin of homosexuality. So if you look at them as equal sins, you can't say that a straight dude is more righteous than a gay dude.

And more so that heterosexuality is less sinful along side it. I don't care if you love me as much as the next guy because we're all sinful, I don't want my feelings to be treated as less significant or meaningful than that of a straight guys.

That's the new strategy to silence people when even the slightest bit of discomfort or challenge to their little worlds come up.

Since no one seems to know who St. Augustine* is, I'm going to assume that I'm the only one who can actually make a theological argument about anything here.

We've already talked about what the *real* problem with this form of thinking is in the realTM NSM Skype so there's been a satisfying conclusion.

Your hilarious misunderstanding of gay people is invoking a similar response. If you don't want people to react to things you say, try... not saying them? We were discussing the various situations gay people can encounter, an extremely conservative environment being one of them. You then thought that an attack on blatantly homophobic religious and non-religious conservatives was an attack on religion in general. Your defense was unwarranted and degraded the discussion into what it is now, so if anyone needs to be less sensitive it's you. Not every discussion about gay people dealing with gay problems is an attack on your religion. Some religious people are dicks, some aren't - we were talking about the former.

Noc, if you're concerned about gays from a biblical standpoint, try these as well:
- Eating anything that mixes meat and dairy (Exodus 23:19)
- Eating anything from the ocean that doesn't have fins or scales (Deuteronomy 14:9 and 14:10)
- Not being circumcised (Genesis 17:14)
- Not being in a majority Christian area (you also have to kill everyone in the town if they aren't Christian; Deuteronomy 13:12-15)
- Cursing your parents (Exodus 21:17 and Leviticus 20:9)
- Ignoring what your minister says (Deuteronomy 17:8-13)
- Cutting certain parts of your hair or shaving the edges of your beard (Leviticus 19:27)

Here are some choice words from the New Testament, as well:

"Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. - 1st Corinthians, 14:34-35

*to be submissive

Yes, speak is mistranslated in these verses.  But if you read the entire chapter without taking things out of context it talks about how nobody's supposed to talk:
"If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.  But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God." 27+28
"I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying."

Yeah that verse sounds really sexist, but I'm guessing it's meant to be taken in the context that only the person preaching was the one allowed to talk (which would have been a guy)

Quote from: braixen1264 on March 19, 2016, 10:44:30 AMWould you guys mind taking this to a private chat? People may start to kill each other otherwise.
Braixen fren with all due respect, there's a rational conversation(at least rational arguments from one side) going on where people are talking in a civil fashion. Also I don't get this "private chat argument" when so many people are here voicing their opinions on the subject. Why even make a private chat when a large portion of the entire community is already here talking about it? Not to mention, getting all the people on a chat together is much more inconvenient and asking people to take it to private chat works more as a method of killing the conversation, which I'm sure you can agree on.

Just because it's a controversial topic, it doesn't mean it should be shut down, we're not an authoritarian country! Ending conversations entirely instead of doing something to them doesn't help directing people's opinions or NSM in general to a better direction in any way, at most it either keeps things as they are or makes things worse in long term. It removes the responsibility of acting in a civil fashion from the flamebaiters and rule-breakers in conversations, and in a way it also removes responsibility(or creates false responsibility in the sense of false duty) from you moderators.
Not to be disrespectful at all, I also completely understand not wanting to punish anyone, but there are better ways to do that than preventing a conversation altogether!! Rather than punishing or preventing discussion, we should all focus on helping each other see each other's viewpoints. They are like lenses that we use to perceive the world, we should focus on exchanging those lenses and help people see what you see and why.

Please don't be or accuse someone for being ignorant of homosexuality or religion and the viewpoints they have, instead try to help each other see the situation from your own viewpoint and why that is. Focus on the good and what you want to see more.
on the "is homosexuality a sin" discussion
There's the obvious scientific arguments like how homosexuality appears in so many species but I'll try to avoid arguments like that, since you can't infer how things should be from how they are(no ought from is).
It shouldn't be too complicated, just please don't read between lines. Like I said it's about viewpoints clashing in the form of cultures. You have no right to demand everyone sees things the way you do and respects your view for the sake of respecting unless you don't have a rational basis. It is simply a fact that the bible justifies itself through argument from authority and begging the question (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question), which means the attempt to make a logical argument is based on a circular chain. That's why classifying homosexuality as a sin is a matter of faith, but faith doesn't give you a right to treat people outside your viewpoint according to your religion. Homosexuality can be classified as a sin by religions, but there's a difference between faith and knowledge, and if your faith isn't based on knowledge it can be wrong(throwback to when church forced Galilei to admit earth was flat).
If you think homosexuality is a sin, go ahead, you have freedom to think and believe whatever you want, it's your choice and your responsibility. Same goes for people who think homosexuality is perfectly ok. But that freedom doesn't extend outside your own mind, meaning you don't have the right to treat people as "sinful" or like you're morally above them in any way. Ironically most religions completely agree with this, f.e. the universal golden rule. Despite that, people still think it's almost like their duty to force their faith(that isn't based on knowledge!!) on others. Being gay is a choice one has made, and it's no one else's responsibility. If they are wrong, then they are wrong but you have no right to force your beliefs on people or treat people like they are doing something wrong, since your beliefs aren't based on knowledge.
Massively pointing out tho how even claiming gay people are sinful out loud achieves nothing positive in the world, it just states how you think you're morally above gay people, without any knowledge to back you up.

tl;dr if you believe being gay is wrong, it's fine if you keep it to yourself. you should still try to understand why they don't agree with your beliefs! how you feel about somoene shouldn't affect how you're supposed to treat someone.

-Whether or not Ruto cares about God has no effect whether her arguments are valid, it's an ad hominem. also it's not that much of a theological discussion, when it's also about societal issues, equality and ethics in general.
-Homosexuality doesn't mean literally sex even though it has the word in it. by this logic, wouldn't heterosexuality also be a sin then? though i'm more inclined to think you just weren't sure what homosexuality means!! :x
-like I explained in my previous post, no ought from is(google Hume's guillotine!!)
-You seem a bit regardless of how cultures and values change over time, that's why I'd recommend you(and everyone!) to try to change perspectives when looking at things!!
-Let's start with what a religion is, it's a worldview that tries to explain how you should react towards what exists and how that exists. Religion gives meaning and is a belief system on how things are, but like I explained, it's based on faith, not knowledge. I explained it pretty well, I'm still recommending you to read the post!!
-telling someone to "grow up" doesn't help your case of being condescending and achieves nothing

...
*gets out a soapbox and stands on it*
*ahem* Before I begin, I would like to say that my chemistry teacher is a good person; I have no beef with her personality. But when a teacher is head of Project: Graduation, the Dance Team (that is in the top 10 concerning national ranking), Math & Science Club, and National Honors Society, that teacher has stretched themselves WAY too thinly. She has Honors, Pre-AP, and AP classes. Nothing else. I'm in Pre-AP, will be in AP next year. The other day, she made the comment to my Pre-AP class: "I'm assuming you know nothing of what I'm teaching, so I'll start with the very basics." said she about DRAWING A BOHR MODEL. Now, if it were something like thermodynamics & junk like that, or perhaps a regular Ed class, I would be fine. But a Pre-AP class with a skill that's been taught all throughout middle school AND 9th grade, you'd think she would at least give SOME acknowledgement that MAYBE we know what we're doing! Now, I understand that she's a teacher & such, and teachers naturally assume that about students. But look at the subject. Look at the class level. If nothing strikes, then LEARN ABOUT PRETESTS. If that's not enough to set you off, she's one of "those" teachers that if you don't do something her way, you're docked points. A fairly large chunk, I might add. Oh, and don't get me started on the blasted finals for that class. She assumes we know nothing except what she teaches, and get this: SHE INCLUDES THINGS ON THE FINAL THAT SHE NEVER TAUGHT IN CLASS, and if you miss it? TOUGH LUCK!!! You should find this amusing: no one in her AP class has ever taken the AP Test and gotten higher than a 1. A FLIPPING ONE. Something isnt being done correctly in that class IF NOT A SINGLE PERSON CAN SCORE HIGHER THAN THE LOWEST SCORE POSSIBLE ON THE AP TEST. A guy I know has 5s on all the AP Tests. In an effort to keep that straight record, he purposefully didn't take that one. That should say something if nothing else has. I close with this: She's a good person with a good personality.
*gets off soapbox & puts it away*
Ok, ignore all that; Alti just needed to be enlightened.

Not all beliefs are knowledge, so we should be ready to change the way we think if we receive knowledge that shows how you are or can be wrong. The previous points I brought up should explain it pretty well. If there's even a chance you can be wrong, you have no right to force your ways on anyone else. That includes even claiming how being gay is immoral out loud, instead you should show acceptance or not give a fuck whether or not someone's gay. Expressing beliefs that consider someone else inferior to one is never justified, those are based on nothing but preconceptions.

Quote from: braixen1264 on March 19, 2016, 10:53:39 PMSorry if that was a bad call Waddle, being a new mod is tuff lyfe.
That said, try not to kill each other guys. I don't really feel like mopping up a bunch of bodies right now.
don't worry at all man, just glad you seemed to understood my point!! It's fruitful discussion like this and being able to understand where one is coming from that leads to great improvement, we could use more of that and you're showing a great example to others!!

Quote from: Pianist Da Sootopolis on March 20, 2016, 11:01:34 AMAlso, Waddle, one little disagreement...
it's great how you're disagreeing with me(instead of following me blindly for the sake of it being me), I'm always ready to explain my thought process!! Anyway you're bringing up the problem of free will, does it exist and if so, to what extent? Is homosexuality really a choice, or do our experiences and knowledge shape us to what we are(could we be predictable)? I've actually talked with Mashi quite a bit about the subject(lol just yesterday I talked with him about determinism and the free will problem). I don't expect you to understand what I'm saying about the free will problem instantly, it's not as clear as 1+1 at first!! Like I said though I'm always down for questions :]
on free will
Recommending reading some of the wiki page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_will) about the subject, it seems to cover it pretty well.
So let's start by assuming free will exists. Homosexuality is then a concept that you personally agree with and one makes it a part of one's essence, everything you include in your essence is up to your own decisions to include them. One is also able to change that part of one if at some point one doesn't agree with it anymore. One is the moral agent and every decision they make is up to nothing/nobody but one themselves. (=indeterminism, cause and effect are outside the moral agent) The problem with indeterminism is the relationship between reasons and moral decisions, does one really choose their decisions?
As for determinism, there's not really a point even discussing about it but to tell you there's a chance world might be deterministic. According to determinism, the entire world is or can be explained through causality(there are many forms of possible determinism), even the actions of mind. Everything happens for a reason, objectively world is inevitable. Even your thought process is the effect of certain events and certain experiences happening for certain causes, or by how they just are. At first glance we might assume it's obvious that we have free will, but we really don't know if the world shaped us to what we are or if we did it ourselves.
If we assume the world is deterministic, everything is meaningless and subject has no responsibility. A script is meaningless to it's characters. If everything is determined, what's the point? Because the world being deterministic is a possibility, we still have to take it to account when explaining the world. But there's no point in talking about anything if we assume world is deterministic. That's why I'm focused on explaining the world from an indeterministic standpoint, because of the possibility of the world being indeterministic and having meaning, why focus on an end that leads nowhere?
There's also the synthetic attempt to combine both, compatibilism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibilism)(the wiki article is short, recommending reading). But in a nutshell, according to compatibilism the world can be both deterministic and indeterministic, free will and laws of nature are not in conflict and a person who isn't forced can choose freely. But the key problem is defining what forcing is, that's why compatibilism overall stands on a very shaky basis.

Shit I didn't want to space out today oh well

Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 20, 2016, 01:07:02 PMNot all beliefs are knowledge, so we should be ready to change the way we think if we receive knowledge that shows how you are or can be wrong. The previous points I brought up should explain it pretty well.

This part I get.

Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 20, 2016, 01:07:02 PMIf there's even a chance you can be wrong, you have no right to force your ways on anyone else. That includes even claiming how being gay is immoral out loud, instead you should show acceptance or not give a fuck whether or not someone's gay. Expressing beliefs that consider someone else inferior to one is never justified, those are based on nothing but preconceptions.

Woah this paragraph. Okay, here are some thoughts, which I'll try do divide up since this paragraph kind of goes all over the place. Mind you idc about someone's personal sexual attraction, that's like their own damn business and arguing anything at someone about it is a waste of everyone's time.

Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 20, 2016, 01:07:02 PMIf there's even a chance you can be wrong, you have no right to force your ways on anyone else.

Logically, this can make sense from the standpoint of not wanting to sound like a hypocrite, but runs the risk of being way too fucking broad. Also, this is a double-edged sword, and your following sentence contradicts that by forcing your beliefs on how to behave upon others:
Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 20, 2016, 01:07:02 PMinstead you should show acceptance or not give a fuck whether or not someone's gay.

So now I'm saying being gay is wrong? I guess so, in the form of playing devils advocate. If you're confused, re-read this part from the perspective of a religious person (one who's beliefs are ones who forbid same-sex relations) toward someone of opposing beliefs:
Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 20, 2016, 01:07:02 PMIf there's even a chance you (waddle? Idk) can be wrong, you have no right to force your ways on anyone else. That includes even claiming how being gay is immoral out loud, instead you should show acceptance or not give a fuck whether or not someone's gay. Expressing beliefs that consider someone else inferior to one is never justified, those are based on nothing but preconceptions.

That first sentence should have stood out. "But that part about the accepting gay ppl doesnt maek sense! Religion doesnt do thattt!" bion, they do. In fact, no religion advocates hating or discriminating others. You only really hear about this because 1) ppl who understand the basic principles of their religion have the decency to not verbally violate and shit on those of opposing beliefs, and 2) the media only shows us the shit b/c ratings and the sort.

Conclusion: is homosexuality "wrong?" You decide, and keep it to yourself. Also wtf does "wrong" even mean, and to what standards are you holding it to?

Whether or not the mods were justified in their actions, Dude's response was not the right way to handle things and was a blatant violation of the forum rules.

it can finally end.


edit: I kept sending messages because I felt really awful, at least every other night, for months, and I don't even know why.
I just needed to put some kind of end to that, whether it be the awful feeling, or at least get some kind of reason so I could finally have closure.

I finally got sick of feeling awful, so I asked for it to be over. It's not closure. Not even close. It doesn't feel good.
When I interact with people I wonder how I'm going to mess up our friendship later on. it's been that way for a few weeks now. i got so tired of it so i kept going, hoping that i could figure /anything/ out. anything to stop the awful feelings. Until I got some kind of answer I would keep fucking myself over in the head, anytime I thought about making friends with someone at all, how it didn't matter how close I was with someone, because one day I could just fuck it up and not even know why or how.


i didn't want to try to guilt them into talking to me, so I tried to act like things were normal and okay with me at first, which probably ended up conveying the wrong message.
I even tried to give them room at some point, for maybe two weeks. but that didn't slow down the awful feeling at all.


that weekend two months ago, there was one thing i feared the most. that somehow we would stop being friends, just because they hung out with me.
it didn't happen right away. it happened shortly afterward, which made it that much more confusing.
i can even point out places where i might have made references to this fear; hell, I think one of the references was the last thing thing that they responded to.
hell, maybe this fear is WHY they stopped talking to me. It's one of the more optimistic possibilities I've come up with.


the only thing that I accomplished by trying to end it today... Now I can finally stop wondering if there's anything I can do to figure it out. I can finally give up. Give up on finding a reason, give up on them as a friend.
It doesn't feel good, at all. But at least I won't drive myself mad trying to figure it out.

I've had no free time for the past month and have put in 12-15 hour days every day. 

Today I find out that the course requirement file for my MA program was incorrect. Due to this I took an extra course I did not really need to take, as did many other students. This semester has been total hell, and it probably would have been manageable had I not had that extra course. 

so mad.

Thank you!! I totally agree. If they so much as talk to me again I'm calling the cops. But I know the type and if I don't do anything, more likely than not they'll forget about it and won't talk to me again. But yeah they were in front of me and I saw them then around and look at me which I thought was weird? Then they slowed way down and spread apart so I had to walk between them and then they started poking fun at me and shouting things after me. Twas horrible

That shit's unacceptable, but generally better not to be the instigator of assault. Slow dealt with this probably the best anyone could have; he kept his cool and has all the information he needs for the cops to investigate. I'm all for protecting one's self, even if that means preemptively attacking or running in dire cases. But in a normal case, generally it's best to do it how Slow did it, even if it sucks (which it definitely does, and I by no means am trying to undermine that).
What happened is completely stupid, no doubt. Sounds like some assholes had nothing better to do than to harass whomever the fuck.

Tl;DR- While it's stupid that Slow should have to go through this, attacking first in a situation like this would probably land you in jail so don't.

If you're talking about a desktop and you're alright with doing a little learning and research, you could build a computer and buy a Windows 7 license. It would be the cheapest option. If you don't want to do that, or it's a laptop (which isn't really worth building on your own), most things with Windows 7 aren't going to be up to standard, and you'll probably have to buy 7 on top of the machine.

My sister whom used to be fun to be around and willing to do a lot of things (video games, outdoor stuff, etc.) is now pound for pound a stereotypical white girl. Apparently there's very fine line of things she's allowed to be around now, which no-joke is pretty much only Iphones, Starbucks, Make up, and cool kid approved TV shows.

The thing is. When I read a book after a while I just daydreaming away or start think about other stuff, and I have a really hard time focusing on reading and more so enjoying it. It seems like a waste of time too, when I could play a game and get way more enjoyment out of it. Comics/Manga are better because there simply are less texts, and the combination with pictures makes it more accessible and easier to read imo. I also think Fantasy is the best genre, because why should I read a book about in-life stuff, isn't the point of books to take you to places you can't go irl?

I'm not saying you're wrong, just presenting my view. It's easy for me to get sucked into a story regardless of the medium. I think books do well by giving as much or as little detail as the author wants so that their world gets established and lets you fill the rest in yourself. A movie can't do that the same way. Neither can a game. Everything you see or hear is that creator's interpretation and not yours. As for genres, I personally love fantasy and rarely read anything else, but that's not always the point. Non fiction, biographies, historical fiction, and all that sort of stuff can be good for the same reason the movies 42 or The Butler or Lincoln are good. They tell stories that tell a story with a purpose that's emphasized because we know it actually happened. Maybe reading isn't something everybody can enjoy, but the art form is something to be appreciated.

It's weird, like, I want to change but at the same time I really don't mind living like this or don't want to do the work... And I know that's a terrible thing to feel like, but honestly I just don't care anymore...

I ended up looking up what a House Centipede is, and now I regret everything.
Quote from: WikipediaWithin the home, these centipedes are found in almost any part of the house. Most commonly they are encountered in basements, bathrooms, and lavatories, which tend to be humid, but they can also be found in drier places like offices, bedrooms and dining rooms. The greatest likelihood of encountering them is in spring, when they come out because the weather gets warmer, and in autumn/fall, when the cooling weather forces them to find shelter in human habitats.

 - They have been found in eastern and southern Australia, from Perth to Adelaide, South Australia, to Sydney, New South Wales and in Tasmania.

Also I swear some big spiders (such as a huntsman) can take a hit from a shoe. And the greatest problem is when you hit a wolf spider carrying its young. I hope that never happens to me.

I hit a crane fly before because I thought it was a mosquito. I went to look for something to clean it up, then got distracted. When I got back, there was a centipede eating the crane fly. It's like a wildlife show.

Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on April 19, 2016, 06:00:25 AMYeah, Australia has the most evil wildlife on the planet. Spiders, snakes, sharks, koalas (no seriously, they can bolt pretty fast towards someone), dingos, house centipedes... drop bears.

You hardly see those dangerous creatures here in Australia, though on the news today, a supermarket recalled Broccoli after people found redbacks in them :P

As I said, I'm quite paranoid. If I see images of a creature that supposedly lives in Australia (bonus points if it's found in Sydney), but I haven't seen one myself, I get VERY paranoid. I'm very used to Golden Orb Weavers (which are outside of my house everyday) and Huntsmans (even when they're in my room), but I've only heard descriptions of Funnel Webs (fast, territorial, aggressive), and that makes me paranoid. I have never seen or heard of a House Centipede before and that's why it makes me paranoid.

Honestly the amount of the deadly wildlife you see depends on where you live in Australia. I live in suburban Sydney so I only have to deal with spiders and snakes. Also if you noticed, the list starts going a bit silly, as in, I'm pretty sure Dingo attacks are extremely rare.

House centipedes are the freakiest thing ever, but unlike some other types of centipedes they're completely harmless so don't get too worked up.

I've been having a bad day :( First my science teacher offended my religion, then I tried telling my friends about how I felt that they never seemed to care about anything I have to say and they were proving it because they were ignoring me while I was doing that. I cried. I dealt with idiot kids that always cut in line and then we run out of food (which I can't go on through the day without lunch) and they're always cussing and calling me the "N" word when the teachers don't do anything about it. Then I wasn't allowed to stay after school for band festival because I didn't have a confirmed ride to take me home. No one helped me when I asked like 5 times for help in math. And now I accidentally spilled dinner when putting it into the oven. I'm just glad my parents are out of town because they'd make it worse.

What was the incident with the teacher, if I may ask? I don't mean to make it political; the reason I ask is because if it's really religious discrimination you may be able to file a complaint of some kind.

It wasn't extremely bad, but I was making a joke because we were watching a video about samurai warriors drowning and crabs having a back looks like their faces. I made a joke saying, "If I drowned would I turn into a crab?" and she said, "Not in our religion.". I only find this offensive because I'm pretty sure she knows I'm christian and that's kinda saying all religions are the same. It's more of a butt-hurt kinda deal but I was really pissed at the point because I was angry about learning about evolution because I don't believe in it. :P

Well, I won't get into the evolution taught in school debate (right now anyways), but I guess just push your way through the unit. Who knows, at the end you might find your mind has changed. Anyways, you could politely ask the teacher after class, or shoot her an email.
TBH I'm not even sure what she was talking about when she said "not in our religion." Is she talking about Darwinism as a whole? If so that's actually really unprofessional as well.

It sounds like she's referencing certain beliefs of reincarnation, and you're blowing it out of proportion.

Also, I know you've been indoctrinated to instantly shut down entire chains of study and all, but when you have no actual knowledge of something, you really don't have a proper right to "disbelieve" in it.  What's the harm in opening your mind to a subject, considering it objectively, and deciding for yourself if the evidence-backed scientific theory for the machinations of life is actually worth just throwing away?  It would be such a shame to just disregard it completely because of nothing more than some figure in your life telling you it was wrong.  Now is the point in time when you have the capability to learn and expand your mind, you should take advantage of that.

I'm throwing out due to specific portions of it. My friend told me a way to tie them both together and it's interesting to think of it that way, but I'm still not believing. I'm just being cautious (maybe a little too cautious) and I don't just want to accept absolutely everything that goes my way. And yes, I was over-reacting because everything in my head sounds a lot bigger than it is.

It's okay. Everyone has experiences like that, especially if you've got any kind of performance anxiety. The good news is that the more you perform, the easier it gets (most of the time). You'll do really good next time around, I'm sure :)
What was the other piece? Was it the Schubert moment musical (A flat major?) you shared with us on I believe the listening thread?

Even as a theory major, you still have to do piano proficiency classes IIRC, which at some schools involve performances, and some schools just have final adjudications. But who knows, you may have one in the future. At the very least, you've gained some kind of experience if you're ever interested in performing again.
Wish I could've heard the Schubert. Great piece, and I'm sure you played it well :)

Some of my final requirements in piano proficiency were to accompany a solo instrument, perform several solo works (some from memory), and pass off all major and natural minor scales, although this all sounds like more work than it really was.

Actually in grad school, I don't know. I have to pass a piano proficiency but I don't think classes are required for that if I can pass like the skills test or whatever. Regardless, you're right that this may not be the least performance haha... I'm just sad my last performance of undergrad was a low note (literally, D-flat below the bass clef).

I was told it's quarter at 120, in sixteenth notes, in four octaves. That's how I've been practicing mine at any rate.
Some university students get their scales ridiculously fast, like Josh Wright (who doesn't even work super hard on scales)

Start at 1:48. He demonstrates both the wrong and right way to play scales XD

You can always try to plan something for the weekends... some sort of activity that will keep you busy. And do it relatively early. It always helps me feel productive.

For me, it's going down to the market on Sunday mornings before all the tourists arrive. I generally get some fruit or flowers. It gets me up and about and I am good for the rest of the day.

Something's been bugging at me the past few months after my victory over my mother. She's completely gone silent which is a wonderful change of pace, yet my dark side brought on by her influence won't go away. If anything, my odd interests are growing bigger and bigger in the depths of my mind and I'm a bit scared I'll turn into a demon of some sort. I've asked my counselors and my grandparents about it and they both claim I'm just fine and that we all have our own interests/odd topics we like, but I just feel a bit scared, mostly because I blame myself for being a moronic 8 year old who didn't know how to call 911 on his own mother to report sexual abuse, all because I didn't realize the real meaning of her words and behaviors until years later... Even now I fear what I would be like if they failed in rescuing me from her.

Gah, I don't know. I just've been feeling down/scared as of late. At least high school is almost over with for me. I just don't get why such a huge victory isn't purifying me or freeing me from these demons.

So I should apologize to my mother, the one who nearly let me die because of her bad living conditions, and then practically burned a vore fetish into my mind because of her obsessive love to keep me inside of her? If anything I should apologize to my Aunt, her sister for having her witness the horror and be abused by my mother as well (as she had a physical disability and my mother would deny her pain medication whenever she got mad at her. Not good times and I still fear for her since she was actually nice and kind-hearted.)

And yes, I admitted to the curse inflicted on me, all because of the misunderstanding you said. All of NSM is free to laugh at me and call me a mutant freak with a creepy mindset, even though I had no say in the matter of psychology at the age of eight, and I still fear having this dark shadow side will cost me a job in the future, all because of my mother. Heck, off and on when worrying about balancing my double life, I have this song play in my head as a perfect metaphor towards the battle within I deal with on a daily basis.


Now that our society is biased towards Women and act as if men can never ever be sexually abused, verbally or physically (much less as a child by their own mother), I'm practically defenseless when it comes to seeking help from peers IRL. You wouldn't believe how many times I get angry whenever someone like my former special ed teacher laughs at me or accuses me of over exaggerating just because I'm a guy.  I'll get through it eventually, but now that I'm the age of knowing about these darker subjects in full detail, I realize the extent of the damage my mother did, and why I had such odd and weird thoughts growing up. I can never apologize to her for that. That being said, I can forgive you easily since I can sense you didn't mean it as a bad intent... I hope so at least. If I'm wrong and it's not a misunderstanding and you truly believe its my error, well I don't know what to say.

the main thing is, even if that part of you came from a bad place, it's not evil. having a victory over your abuser won't make you instantly okay, but it is a huge step in getting better.
there's no need to demonize something that turns you on, especially if it's making you unhappy.
If you really don't like it you can try to get your mind off of it with something else and try to change as a person, but that's so much easier said than done.

I could less about sympathy. All I want is simple advice on why my other half isn't diminishing or anything after defeating my mother, which my own counselor and grandmother don't think I need as they both say it's fine to have those interests, when I fear it's not normal and it could cost me jobs.

It's hard to explain, but in general I've tamed it so that I can keep it to myself on a small corner of the web, but the fact that I even have to do that makes me fear I'm doing something wrong/shaming myself. I just don't feel "normal" and while I'm used to it now (making removing it impossible), I just am scared sick it'll cost me a future job or reputation due to the stigma that having a fetish corrupts the mind.

I hate to tell you this but you might very well have had your vore fetish with or without your mother. Thousands of people with a completely normal childhood have the same fetish, and it's very very difficult if not impossible to "force" a sexual fetish on anyone. She may have just introduced you to it at a young age--as horrible and reprehensible and shitty as that is, it's very likely it's just a part of you as a person. I also want to point out that like Altissimo is implying, you don't need to tell potential employers or even anyone else about it, lol.

From what I've gathered, fetishes are quite common, have no real negative impact (except maybe the turning on at inconvenient times), and are an innate part of the individual in question (can't be learned or forced; like genetics). I don't think it's anything to be ashamed or concerned about. And I definitely wouldn't worry about it costing you a job or reputation because the chances are decent that said future boss may very well have a fetish him/herself.

Quote from: Altissimo on May 04, 2016, 07:41:39 AMI ain't ever heard that one before. Everyone's got some weird shit they're into, no matter how much they try to tell you otherwise. But how would it even come up in a job or whatever?

The fear of being in trouble at a possible job is mainly because my dad gave me a good yelling when I confessed to him what was in my mind a few years ago. My Grandparents and Aunt may be A-OK with it but my father grew paranoid and practically told me to ditch the fetish as he said Employees will search your online profiles for all info they can find to do a "background check". At the time he said that I could care less about getting a job but now that I'm 18 and am considering some advanced tech jobs for once I get through college I'm a bit nervous that this thing in my mind will cost me everything if what he says is true.

Granted, I had the same fears about being accepted once I learned I had Aspergers Syndrome, since it started off as a diagnosis that was hidden from me until I was 10 years old when my mother told me during one of our supervised visits, and even then I wasn't allowed to know until I was 13 because my grandparents knew I wouldn't be taking it too happily, so they got really angry when I came home and told them what my mom said made me different.

Believe it or not, out of all the things she's done since my rescue, that was actually the best thing she did IMO since it made me stop my bullying of autistic people at my school because they drove me up the wall. Once I learned that I was just like them I practically went into hating myself for a good few months since I was one of the kids I poked fun of, and even after elementary school my self-hatred continued for a good off-and on period of a few more years until I manned up and grew out of it, mostly thanks to me learning that some really influential people in the world had it as well.

If I wasn't informed about what I had until I was 13, while I wouldn't have gotten the on and off depression, I would have likely continued my bullying to fit in with the kids at the school, even if it was at the expense of others. Looking back now, becoming depressed over that was what made me into a more accepting person compared to other folks my age who still pick on those kids (including me now, on rare occasions but I'm good with it)

This on the other hand? Despite my googling I can't find a single influential person who has an odd interest like me... Which makes me sorta feel much, much worse about this than I was about Aspergers, especially since I had that from birth while this ended up growing due to circumstances out of my control.

And ironically before then I was very, very afraid of anything creepy like that. I played Ocarina of time as a kid and the third dungeon gave me friggin Nightmares due to those creepy tentacle enemies, disturbing music and the whole theme of the dungeon. Shortly after my rescue I was scared of the other dungeons still but oddly not that one anymore. Coincidence? I think not, sadly. Of course now that I'm an adult I got over my fear of the other dungeons and love the game like anyone else, but the fact that the third dungeon of that game was the first thing I got over just seems really odd to me.

And of course, I know I shouldn't expect employers to ask me about odd things like that, but if my dad's mention towards background checks are correct, then I have every reason to be concerned if they'll look through all corners of your life.

Tomorrow, I'm going to a counselor to see if I can fix myself or at least get treatment. If he still denies that there's anything wrong with me despite my gut instinct and fear of wanting to be a perfect, courteous person with 100% abstinence without any odd thoughts whatsoever, then I honestly don't know what to do. Dad is the most stern one in our family and having been burned by my mother (before I was born, I might add meaning that my life with my mom didn't include my dad) didn't help matters much for him either.

Employers don't care what fetishes you have. Those background checks are for things like posting nudes and stuff.

Trust me, if they did background checks as thourough as you fear, anyone who's ever watched a porno would be out of work.

Well, as I said earlier Thursday was my visit with the counselor and after a long talk with him, I concluded pretty much what others told me here, that it is something odd that's a part of life and that I shouldn't worry too much about it even if I get a job. He even said it was part of what made me unique which I immediately denied until he brought up a great point.

"Connor, would you rather have never had that as a part of you, and therefore never met the friends who helped you during this time?"

Honestly, thinking that over for the past few days, I can say no. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have found friends that helped me during very rough times, nor would I have gained the courage to stand up to my mother a few months ago. While I don't like to admit it, I think there's nothing to worry about in regards to what makes me myself. I'll still keep things to myself of course, but there's nothing "Cursed" about me anymore. I think this should help me relax for now.

This sounds like a really huge step, and I'm glad you've realized this. Everything that happens to you makes you who you are, and who you are is who we like and accept. Remember that we think you're cool. I really hope everything works out for you, you've had some really hard things in your life but you've dealt with them well. I'm glad you're finally getting over this. ;D

I think it's one of the more unique entries, she has a great voice, the song has a personal meaning and I believe she's the only one who wrote the song all by herself (instead off asking a Swedish person, like half of the songs in the first semi-final)

also, I believe all the countries most north of Africa are eligible to enter too (though only Morocco has done it)

I have thought about that a lot in the last few years (guess it's part of growing up) and although my parents probably have more time than that, no one can say for sure... My advice to you is just spend as much time as you can with them, and make the time you spend meaningful and fun, free from arguments and contention if it's possible. Call them when you're not around and visit when you can. Tell them often that you love and appreciate them, so that when they do go you won't regret not saying those things :)

One of my close friends is in a similar situation (the only Asian guy in a family and worried about the dead branches, etc...) and hasn't had the courage to really come out to anyone, likely out of fear of not living up to parents expectations and how his friends would think of him.

But coming from someone who lost a parent suddenly, I always wished I had more time. If you have a chance to speak with your parents, try. And it is never too late to learn a language. Even learning enough Canto to tell them that you want to talk to them and be closer to them would go a long way.

You may think you may have 10-30 years, but it may be less (or more) than that.

No. It's pretty common for there to be a few kids in there who don't try that hard. I know because I would have been one of them. It sounds so bad simply because one or two are off. It sounds bad because all it takes is one or two people who only play music because they were forced to choose an instrument to ruin the entire thing. Btw: I heard from my brother, who was in a different part, that they all recognized that they couldn't play together well.

you didn't seem to get my point of how unnecessary it is to shittalk a kids' concert when they're not about all about the music, rather focus on the good things they are intended for. i get what you're saying but saying "you know because that's what you would have done" and generalizations in general back your point up poorly. in general if you have a problem with what i said you could answer the points i brought up, that's usually the best way to help someone understand where you're coming from if you don't think they get it. :]
also no one took "a spot in hell" literally :x it's just that your overexaggerated metaphors come off a bit pedantic

:] yeah i completely agree, i just don't agree with bashing children's concerts purely because of few kids messed up.

kinda like if your 2-year old kid drew you a picture and you tell your friend "how the drawing made your eyes bleed".
^that's a bit of a poor and exaggerated example, but my point is how it isn't about the picture itself, but about the meaning and good intentions behind it. same with middle school concerts.

in "there have actually been" the word "actually" implies you are aware of the original ironic intention of olimar's quote. but instead of taking what olimar said further, you clearly derailed from the joke and its ironic intentions to describe your own realistic experiences, which does not equal going along with the joke.

alright i only asked you to explain yourself if you're gonna blame others but instead you give me this patronizing attitude.

it's more in the lines of how every single post you have made in the past three pages has been nothing but blatant statements or arrogant opinions without any valid reasoning behind them(go check yourself), from "no it doesn't" to "because someone is wrong on the internet".
when i claim you're the only one here who had interpretation problems about the joke, you reply to that and say it's "someone else who started it". after i ask you "alright then, who and why?", you try to claim "is it really not that clear" and avoid answering. why tf would i ask you to drop names if it was objectively obvious, so stop with the condescending attitude at this moment. you yourself even admitted earlier how you understood my earlier joke post in a wrong manner, so it's definitely reasonable to ask you to explain your view.

i think a good thing for everybody to note here is how until the last post where i addressed bds' condescending attitude and bullshit, my only posts about this entire matter had only been joke posts or just pleas for bds to simply explain himself. with practically only one sentence in 'em to add. so reading at least my posts so far is a bit excessive for anyone to get all bent out of shape about :x
in general fam i'm not the kinda person to leave shit said just go by, especially when that shit gets directed at myself.


Quote from: BlackDragonSlayer on May 29, 2016, 10:14:56 AMDon't be a hypocrite now, please.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tu_quoque and yet you still won't explain how, which was the point in my post of how you keep saying shit and can't explain why. just because my words may seem harsh, it doesn't make them condescending.
there shouldn't be a problem with dialectics in general, but if you're gonna call someone blatantly hypocritical it achieves literally nothing. this is the kind of toxicity that should be avoided.

At the risk of being considered even more patronizing, being needlessly pedantic isn't helping to bring the situation to a close.
is it petty to not just answer when someone simply asks a question? how is it petty? again, just provide reasoning, that's the whole point why i've been asking you to explain yourself.

but anyway, you think this way and yet you keep doing it? saying this is not a tu quoque on my part, since you claiming it's petty is not a factual-based claim but your own opinion and in conflict with the motives of making the post itself. point is, if you claim something is petty, nothing is keeping you from doing it then? if you think your own post that continues the convo is petty then why make it? you can always hmu on pm or take the convo there if you don't feel comfortable talking publicly, for example if you're afraid people would think you're needlessly pedantic.

any misunderstandings could be long solved if you could explain yourself, since you claim your righteousness. instead you're still here trying to argue and refusing to do it, that if what "isn't helping bringing the situation to a close".

That was an XKCD reference (https://xkcd.com/386/) (complete with underlining) and wasn't intended to be a serious statement at all.
my point with those examples wasn't your motives behind them, but how they added nothing of value to the conversation.
and there was never even a debate at that point, you'd need at least two posts to do have one x) so there's no need to overexaggerate fam.

but again, a good rule of the thumb for you is that if you claim something, you should also be able to reason why.
you yourself might see the questions to explain your self-righteous view as needless, but you need to be able to realize how thinking you know something doesn't automatically mean you do. so it's definitely reasonable for others to draw a rational conclusion and end up in a different viewpoint if one's self-righteous view happens to be wrong. that's why one should be capable of explaining and rationalizing where they are coming from. there was also clearly

also we clearly don't see our posts as needless if we're still writing these posts trying to find the common ground. but like i said, you can always hmu on pm if you're feeling uncomfortable.

there shouldn't be a problem with dialectics in general, but if you're gonna call someone blatantly hypocritical it achieves literally nothing. this is the kind of toxicity that should be avoided.
No, it's not that I can't explain why, it's just that I won't explain why, because, as I said before, you are unnecessarily dragging out this discussion to be far longer (and more in-depth) than it ever needs to be. To be honest, I think this is all that needs to be said about the matter, since you are repeatedly missing the point by continuing to drag this discussion onward.

Went to the state track meet today (high school) with high expectations from basically everyone at my school. I was seeded 1st in the high jump so of course people expected me to win. Naturally, I missed my first 3 attempts at the height I started at and went out immediately. My legs have been messed up lately so I didn't expect to do great but it just really stinks that I let down all of my peers. Also, my female friend went out of her way to take the several-hour-trip to watch and support me for the first time this season and she got to see that. Now I get to deal with answering "Did you win states?!" for the next few weeks. Kinda bummed :-\

Bought a FFV game for the GBA a while ago. Played it a bit this weekend and it seemed to be having a problem with saving the game. Sometimes the saved file would just suddenly disappear. After some research it turns out that I bought a bootleg... Hope I can return it or get some money back or something, but that's really unsure.

I could however help you guys out to avoid buying one:
If you're going to buy a GBA game and want to be sure it's not a bootleg here's some tips. Look at the front cover, if it has the seal, and the companies and etc. Also look at the quality of the cover, I realized that my FFV looks quite blurry compared to my other FF advanced games. Secondly you can look at the "GameBoy Advance" text above the cover, usually it's very thin and kind of "blurs into the cartridge", but on fake games it's more "carved out" you can see the text much clearer. Thirdly you can look at the plastic it is made of, real games' plastic "shine" more than fake bootlegs, real games also have a slighter light color of the plastic than fake ones. Finally if you look into the game, you know the green-golden circuit. Real games golden parts also "shine" more than fake ones, and fake ones got small holes which real ones doesn't have. There are some more differences but this one is a good start to avoid buying fake bootlegs.

They're probably sick of work after all this :/ and just want to be lazy. What about giving them a bit more time or planning something where they don't have to move much? XD

I don't even talk to anyone from my high school, one of them is always "Clinton this, Clinton that" and it drives me crazy. The rest of them are just working boring office jobs. My friends from college are in medical school, working in labs or getting their master's (and more...).

I also have a long rant but I'll post it later and a summary now:

Normally I don't give a shit about people being ignorant because I'm sure their lives are really hard and unsatisfying with their limited intelligence, but this person on my facebook just reposted something saying that Muhammad Ali was no hero (among other horrible things in that post) because he was refused to go to Vietnam.

I have a lot more crap about this person and it's terrible that people like this can exist...I actually think that she should die of cancer -.- (more on that later)

There's a lot of reasons people just feel unmotivated like that, but as a low cost option, I just used to bring take out to a friend's place and then watch stuff on the computer in her room. Then maybe a movie in the living room.

Sweden lost to Italy 0-1.  :'( :'(

Man, so sad, cause we played so good. Against Ireland why played really sloppy, but in this match we played really good. We played better than Italy in first half, having 60% ball possession. But then at like 88 min, they managed to score a goal. :'(

Looking rough for Sweden. We have to win against Belgium to stand a chance in our pool. And that's not going to be easy considering Belgium is really strong team, although maybe a bit over-hyped, still a really strong team.


Also, watching Spain - Turkey. Spain is in the lead with 2-0, lol.

Noc's counseled me with my problems before (but I don't want to volunteer him!!) but from what I've experienced it helps me at least to just tell anyone who could listen anything you're struggling with because sometimes just voicing your frustrations or worries helps put them in perspective and gets you closer to being able to push them away.

a youtuber i like is making animations of a hilariously bad (and probably intentionally bad) warrior cats fanfic thats famous for being bad. by the fourth video people kept assuming she made it and criticizing her for her bad writing so she made a 30-second disclaimer that "I didn't write this, it's a troll fanfic, I'm just animating it" and people are STILL commenting "Do you not know how to spell?" and shit

so rant: when people do not fucking watch the disclaimer intended to prevent this very situation but apparently just fuckin skip to the beginning of the animation just so they can complain about it

like this is not logical

Sweden lost to Belgium 0-1  :'( :'( :'(. That means that were out of the tournament, as we won't come 2nd in our group and can impossibly be one of the best 3rd places with only 1 point as the score. Didn't have that big hopes for Sweden but still sad as we could've played some really good match and made it, the possibility was always there.

I'm probably going to cheer for Germany now, and also Spain. 2 great teams, which I wouldn't be surprised if they happen to be the finalists.

a parent shouldn't say something rude/abusive, and then not apologize because they "didn't mean it." It hurts. A lot.

also, i don't like when the pineapple is too warm on pizza.

A profanity laced rant from Kman96 regarding pineapples:
Spoiler
Listen up bitches it's time to get fucking REAL.
Pine-FUCKING-apples. Who the FUCK eats this shit? DAMN. This fucking shit is the shittiest damn shit I ever fuckin shit out of my fuckin asshole. Why did it even go in my goddamned mouth hole in the first place? I DONT FUCKIN KNOW, OKAY, ASSFACE? STOP ASKING ME ALL THESE FUCKING QUESTIONS ABOUT PINEAPPLES LIKE I GIVE A SHIT YOU PUNK-ASS PIECE OF LITERAL GARBAGE.
Sorry. Fuck. I just ordered a strawberry-flavored pizza and they fucked me over with this shitty Hawaiian, like who the fuck do they think they are? Pineapple is for DWEEBS AND PUNTY FUCKBAGS. I ain't that shit. Don't fuckin give me that shit. I won't buy it. And if you like pineapples then FUCK YOUR PINEFUCKINGAPPLES and fuck your weak ass pussy. ASS. PUSSY. Read that twice, bitch. Also fuck Hawaii. I ain't racist but that shit is overrated. And dumb.
Fuck my ass. Holy shit my back fucking hurts. It's like a lardo decided to just fall 50,000 feet into my fucking back and give me a crick in my neck the size of florida's crazy ass police blotter. I went to the flippin chiropractor the other day and guess what they fuckin did? FUCKING NOTHING. The guy like snapped my neck a few times, popped my back a bit and then sat me in a goddamned massage chair for 30 FUCKING MINUTES ARE YOU FUCK ME PLEASE AND THANK YOU GODDAMN
I am a bonaFINE sex beast. The amount of anuses I have ruptured with my massive bear cock is enough to give you 11 more fingers to shove up your significant other's fuck-cunt. The fact that I have three fully erect penises coming out of my left ballsack should be enough to tell you that I get MAD PUSS EVERY FUCKING NIGHT BABY. You can't even imagine how hard I go on all of the women. I go so fucking hard. You don't fucking know because you're a pineapple-ass eating bitch. Fuck that shit. I ain't about that fuckin life.
Fuck all this shit this shit ain't even worth my shit I'm out

I just want to play a game, but my modem uses spaghetti as wires to transfer data and I can't keep a connection to any server long enough to load the texture of my character's thumb.

I just get so tired of dealing with the people around me sometimes, and the inconsequential things they do that bug me, but that I really can't complain about. Sprinting loudly up and down the stairs while everything is quiet, pacing and shifting your feet while brushing your teeth in the morning while I try to sleep, refusing to blow your nose and just sniffling for hours, etc... And then I'm doing useless homework and having to deal with an incompetent TA who won't admit she graded my work incorrectly. It's really a simple desire, to want to isolate myself with some sort of engaging and entertaining online video game. Completely understandable, I'm sure, and with comparable activities for other interests.

And I just can't...

Because our internet traffic is too crowded from twitch streams my friend leaves running all day, and the router has to be in the corner of my roommates' room so they can connect with a wire, and it's good enough for devices that work on a 5.0 GHz frequency, so nobody wants to invest in a new one. I'm just tired... I just want to play a game.

I'm always extra mindful whenever I see a cyclist on the road, but sometimes the way they ride on the street just begs for an accident to happen.

So my computer's main drive had no space left, so I decided to move a folder of 4.3 GBs of photos to a USB and the next day, only 48MBs left.

What.

Try limiting the space allotted for system restore points. It freed up around 15-20gb for me. Note that you should leave some, because it's pretty important.

Quote from: Zunawe on July 01, 2016, 12:54:47 PMWays to free up disk space on Windows:
  • Empty your Recycle Bin
  • Remove programs that you don't use
  • Carefully look through your computer's files and delete folders that you know don't need to be there, such as folders leftover from uninstalling programs.
  • Check your My Documents folder. Lots of stuff gets saved there automatically, and people often don't use it.
  • Run the program "Disk Cleanup." It's already on Windows by default. You'd be surprised at how much space error reports and temporary files can take up.
Ok, you should probably do this first.
Oh, and to figure out where a lot of the extra files are,
File Explorer>Computer> and start right clicking on everything and clicking "properties." This will tell you how much space is taken up by each folder. Once you find the offending folders, look further into them.

Also, if you go to Computer>Users>[user here]> and the files don't add up, it may be the appdata folder. Look up how to show hidden folders if that folder is not appearing. Iirc, Blueflower999 had a whopping 250gb of extra data hogging up his hard drive in there when I was walking him through this. (I doubt it will be that big for you, though)

What's the max hard drive space?

Editing to avoid a double post:
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on July 01, 2016, 07:10:57 AM4.3 is a LOT of photos.
I have 4.47gb.
I also have 34.0gb of music, which probably isn't a good idea considering I have a 120gb SSD.

"Oh, E. Gadd, you're just like Nate" "Wow, you're as skilled as Nate" Nate this, Nate that. I'm tired of it. >:(
I'm a runner and he isn't, a musician (kinda) and he isn't, I don't drink and he does, and I'm planning on taking (and passing) the AP Chem test next year. Yet still, the people at school don't care. I'm not <my name here>, I'm Nate's secondary form.

Or you could just do it because it's fun instead of trying to compare yourself to him like you just talked about.

I get that hearing that you're "like" somebody isn't great, but if you start to do things because you want to, you'll both separate yourself from those comparisons, and you'll stop caring so much because you know its for you.

Good luck! Living on your own can be scary, but you have a lot of freedom. There are some responsibilities that aren't really present even at college, like making food and that kind of thing, so you need to be mindful. I'm sure you'll do great, though. I hope you enjoy your new room!

why can't girls(or I guess women now that I'm a fucking adult apparently) just make a little bit of sense?

actually let's expand that, why can't people make a little bit of sense?

like I'm at the point where I'm so bad at communicating with other humans I swear there's got to be something wrong with me and my stupid brain, like sociopathic tendencies or something, because I feel like an outsider, no matter where I am or who I'm with, and then I finally make a connection with someone that seems real and true and then one day they just fucking shove me away like old potatoes or something else of an equal revolting nature

try to pretend not to care, "nothing's wrong", "I'm fine", lying through my fucking teeth to keep anyone who actually seems to enjoy my existence from worry or mental discomfort. convinced my battles are ones that must be fought completely alone

I feel like the most perfect wallflower

Just consider those people just as expendable as they do you.  Try meetups to at least chill with people and do the same thing.  Maybe you get lucky and make a connection, at worst you can leech off of the crowd for another session or two.

Quite a fair amount of people lack discretion, maturity, and an awareness of how they should act in ways other than complete self-interest (or some combination of those), which leads to a lot of poor relationships... and that's why people don't make a lot of sense all the time.

Or just be extremely cynical. :P That can work too.

Don't sweat it. That's exactly how I feel in real life too: Like an outsider. I think your first paragraph perfectly sums me up in a nutshell. In real life, I'm basically a statue (very introverted) and I'm horrible at making friends. I'm not sure if being an introvert is what you're referring to, but I totally feel you! Hope things work out for ya.

Don't worry. I'm absolutely convinced it's not you being weird but other people being assholes. I've had so many people that I've felt like I've had strong connections with only for them to push me out of their lives . Also that dumb unwritten rule that you're not allowed aknowledge that anything happened.

Two things that've helped me:
1. Ignore that unwritten rule - don't lie through your teeth. It's ok to get mad at people if they screw you over, don't take the blame for it and put yourself into some kind of self pity depression (unless you actually were the one who messed up, then take responsibility for it and apologize.)
2. What kefka said. Let them be equally expendable and just end relationships with people that are making you miserable. Ask yourself if being involved with that person/those people is worth feeling like shit, chances are the answer is no.

As a side note I don't know why the fuck being open and reaching out to people makes you undesirable, but if you're hard to get then all the sudden everyone wants to be your friend (until you reciprocate, at which point everyone reels back hissing.)

I got a new job so I haven't been home much lately. Usually when I'm home the thermostat is never below 74 degrees (and that's even too cold for me but I compromise with my roommates). When I finally returned home after about 4 days, our electricity bill was up on the board.

We owe $106 for June!!! (Split between 3 people, so ~$35 each)

Our bill has NEVER been that high! I was PISSED. My roommate who stays in her room all day turns down the temp to 67 degrees!!! 67!!! Who needs it that cold???

So I wrote an angry note... "Remember that some of us can't afford $35 a month for AIR CONDITIONING"

I'm so sick of having roommates...

I wish I could say it gets better but I'm 20 and in my last year of college and my parents are still trying to control my life. At some point I think you've got to force independence or it just won't happen.

You're lucky he's pushing you to go away to college. I had to fight to get my parents to be okay with me going away to live at college rather than staying home and commuting. What I did is basically what you're doing--suck it up and deal with it. The only thing that got me through high school was knowing college (and by extension time without my parents) was ahead. Well, that and some late night Professor Layton sessions.

There is a point in your life where you need to get away from your parents. To think, make decisions, etc.
I believe it's a natural thing in life; however, for me, I am actually living at home (since we live 15 minutes from the college I'll be going to). Unlike a lot of peoples' parents, mine are very kind and considerate of my feelings. They'd basically back me on any decision I made (within reason, of course). I feel comfortable living at home for another 4 years (at most). After college, I do plan on moving back to where I grew up.

They won't pity me, stop me, or control me in any decision I make. They will, as you say, try to "manipulate" me...if only very slightly, but they won't drone on about it and will support me in any decision I make.

Ahhhh my parents are the exact opposite, pretty much. It's not like my parents don't accept me or hate me as a person--for instance, they're almost unbelievably accepting and cool about me being gay, the way all parents SHOULD be. But everything becomes a huge deal with them and turns into a long thing of them being passive aggressive (or downright aggressive) until I do what they want. I've been having to brute force my way through arguments or stand up for what I believe in or the way I want to live my life just so they HEAR me.

I understand. Yeah, I know some kids with parents like that. They sometimes play it off as, "They just love me." I'd like to agree with them, but there should be some room for discussion if they don't agree with you, not just passive or even direct aggression.

Oh, I see. Is there any particular reason they would be against you being gay? I don't think I've ever met someone that has parents that disagree with their kid(s) sexual orientation, even if it goes against their beliefs.

Lol. My story trumps them all. I slept over at a friend's house (outside) and I probably got 20-25 bites on my face alone. It was horrible. I swear having 25 mosquito bites will be a punishment in hell. xD
Anyway, my face really swelled up. I was debating on whether to got to the doctor or not, but I decided not to. I did get the swelling down though. Vitamin C tablets seem to really help (for me, anyway) with swelling.

Mosquitoes haven't bitten my face since I was a kid, it's all arms/legs/hands/feet. I remember sitting for a picnic in Schönbrunn and suddenly I see this giant welt on my hand -.- the only part that was uncovered besides my face. No one else got bitten. There's still a mark there.

Anyway this time around I took a picture of the really disgusting looking bite and sent it to manio because he sent me a selfie. I'd post the photo but my knee is in it.

do u ever get where ur in an emotional state where u want to find something - some literature, art, poetry, music - to express it, but u cant seem to find something good enough to express ur state and ur not creative enough to create something to express ur state

i want to find some music to express my state, presumably something i can sing or play on piano, but do u know how hard it is to find something that meets ur exact specifications

i wish i were a better composer or artist :(

When I feel like that, I watch either of the Studio Ghibli films Kiki's Delivery Service or Whisper of the Heart, because they talk about creative blocks and in particular not feeling like an adequate artist in VERY REALISTIC and completely refreshing ways. It doesn't always solve my problem, but it does make me feel a lot better about it.

Sorry you're going through that; as someone who has had to deal with frustrating, unsavory, and/or insensitive relatives, that sounds quite unpleasant.


Anyway, for my own minor rant: My doctor's office is supposed to have gotten my immunization records to us weeks ago (college stuff, and we only have partial records already in our possession), but for some reason they're having the darndest time finding records that should already be in their own computer systems (at least according to everyone we ask there), and my mom doesn't seem particularly concerned about even checking in to see if they have them yet.

That's because it wasn't. Just because you or I or anyone else realizes the the problem is with themselves doesn't mean it's not a frustration. Btw, I think you're being a little too hard on yourself.

So there's been this one kid who insists on hanging around a few of my gaming buddies and I when we're hanging out at our local Comic Shop. He's really bigoted and stuck-up, and ignorant about any sort of current event. Whenever one of us tries to call him out on it, he'll run crying to the employees and they side with him because he's a total ass-kisser, and even got one guy banned from our gaming sessions. Nobody likes him, and there's nothing we can do about it.

So I drove for the first time on public roads, and mom was freaking out at every little thing I did. And when I got home? dad got aggravated for my little sister being in the car. "How completely idiotic of you, retard" I received. So now I can't drive with anyone but either my mom or dad, one of which who freaks out at anything I do, the other who doesn't want me driving at all. So, I can safely say I won't be licensed until college.

Welp, I feel like I'm losing all my old friends (at least where I'm living right now). I guess it's a bad thing as we were friends for several years, but I'm also gaining more friends who I like better as friends. The only problem is that my old friends are the only friends that I can talk to about the things I like. I dunno what I should do: try to keep my old friends or make new ones.

Is it not curved?
I have a good friend at Princeton and he says the top grades on just about every final is 50-60, before the curve. Being able to pass a class is only dependant on your ability to do better than your peers.

it's a diagnostic test. this means it's to gauge my music history knowledge and is completely separate from competition against peers or any class. If I don't pass, I'll have to take it again and so on until I do pass. So no, I don't think it's curved. Passing is at least 60%. Considering all the GUESSING i was doing I guess that's a possible outcome but I highly doubt it.

Lol not undergrad and not an Ivy where they pass more students than they should so they don't feel bad about who they've admitted (their "investments"). I knew a kid at Yale who admitted he fucked up so badly in his first year, but ended up with B's in everything. My professor who went to Harvard admits they bump up grades like this too.

Oh my goooosh
OK sorry I'm about to rant right now
My mom just went through the weirdest mood swing
She gets really irritating when I'm discussing work
So after heckling about my hours for the school year
She just gave my family the cold shoulder like she usually does when she's irrationally irritated
Especially about my "running to the recording studio everyday" (not even true, literally last year I went at most once a week)
And "If your homework isn't done at school, you're goofing off"
So she was like "School work and getting to college should come before work"
And I was like "Well, next summer I need to start working more to save up for college"
And she's like "No, you need to improve your schoolwork so you can get scholarships"
"You can get a job at college, but just for spending money"
😕
Like top-notch schools pay full-rides...
Then I was like "I got 5s on my AP tests (3 of them, I got in 3 in Chem tho, still passing) and have an AP scholar with distinction award, and colleges like that"
And she was just like "Yeah... great"
"As long as your grades stay up"
And doesn't even care
She's just worried I won't get my chores done 😕
That's what she always rants about
"If things don't get done around here, I'm just leaving"
So I think to myself
"What the heck am I supposed to do to please her, huh?"
I do all my chores, but if she doesn't notice it she doesn't care
and when she notices that I missed something
even once
she just festers
and yells at us about it
"It's just you and that dang Internet"
"All you can think about is what you're going to do next on it"
"And some person's gonna find you and kidnap you"
"I'm going to throw your laptop out the window and across the lawn"
"If you want to work more, then use your money to pay our electrical bill"

K, that's it

This quote pretty much sums up all this illogical crap she's giving you. Honestly, she just seems frustrated and your internet habits are the easiest place to take it out, simply because she doesn't see your finished products like she might otherwise.
In all honesty, that sucks. I'd give you advice but I still haven't found out what the heck to do or say to people who are constantly being inconsistent or hypocritical because, the instant you point it out, they just get mad.
If anyone figures out what to do, I'd love to know also.

holy fuck this is emo
Anyone know how to fight off that feeling of wasting away your life?
I can't tell if it's depression, anxiety, some other condition I'm not aware of, or what.
I just feel (and am) constantly alone. I'm by myself at home for a few days while my dad and younger brother are off in California to go to amusement parks and concerts. I've tried to make plans with my closest friends multiple times and they've all made plans with each other and ignored me. And I love these people to death but I swear to God it feels like they just view me as someone to talk to when they're depressed or need a study buddy and then just leave.
I took a few Atavin a while back to calm myself down and go to sleep.. Not long after I found myself taking it more often for that purpose. I'm not dependent on it, I haven't taken it in a while (out of fear of developing a habit), but the thought that I had to take something extra to be able to deal with people being people is fucking terrifying.
This site has even lost its appeal somewhat.. I used to love arranging and engraving, now it's just a thing I do sometimes if I want to feel in control of something visually.
I feel completely alone and I have no idea what to do. I've tried getting out, exercising, going for walks, talking to people, all the usual things that even therapists have told me to do in the past, but they're just activities now. Without people to do them with they're meaningless.
Meanwhile several friends of mine are suicidal and it's all I can do to convince myself they aren't going to die.. I've already lost people to this shit, I'm not going to fucking lose anyone more.
And relationships ha that's a fun topic.
Ever had that constant feeling of "almost"? Like, you almost have something you think might turn into something great and then at the last minute it just goes away with no explanation?
I know I'm only 15 and most of this won't matter in 2 years, but that doesn't change the fact that it matters RIGHT NOW.
Anyways these friends of mine I love them to death. They're some of my favorite people on this Earth. But how can it not be that they're ignoring me on purpose? I've tried to contact them all multiple times to hang out this summer, and gotten, at best, a response of "I'd love to, I'll check when I'm free" followed by crickets. Then, 2 days later, I see Instagram posts about how they're at the beach with all my other friends and having so much fun, making memories, not a care in the world.
Can people just be straight with me about whether or not they value me? Please?
Thanks.

have you been friends with them for a long time, or are they quite new friends? You could always ask them if there is something they don't like about you or something that bothers them, to get it straight and clear things out.

Damn, that sucks. I have had a few "slumps," and I'm not entirely sure how I got through them, but, from what you're saying, it sounds a little like a bit of depression. As for how I got through it, well, you wouldn't like it, as it has to do with religion.

Honestly if religion helps you with depression more power to you. Even when I was religious, I never found any kind of comfort in the idea of God (I might've just been too young, but meh).
My issues with religion are a thing, but as far as I'm concerned, if it helps you with your depression then more power to you because this shit sucks and we need all the help we can to overcome it.

That is how 90% of high schoolers feel and there isn't really a good way to deal with it because everyone in your age bracket (13-18?) is eiter too immature (I don't mean this in an insulting way) or too socially incompetent to properly make and maintain relationships. My coping methods are:

1. Understand whats going on from a larger perspective. A lot of people feel the same way you do, your friends probably included.
2. Scout out people that don't care about social barriers and such. I've found a few people recently that I can reach out to without jumping through hoops and pretending like "I'm not really interested but I'll be your friend because it's convinient."
3. Fuck people that pretend to be your friend "You're my best friend even though I have no intention of ever spending time with you!"  Like idk why this is so common but I think you know what I mean. Just cut ties with them and if it hurts them that's their problem.
4. This is high school. Teenagers are supposed to be socially awkard. Most people are miserable in high school. Take comfort in the fact that none of this will matter when you move out.

Weekly assignment from one of my classes:

Each week, each student will post a comment on the weekly forum describing the work they completed in class for the week. This is required and is part of your grade. These updates should be posted within one week; for example, for the week of 8/22 to 8/28, each student should post their weekly update by the start of the Tuesday's lecture the following week (Tuesday 8/30 in this case).

For each update, you should include the following:

Briefly summarize what you did in class on Tuesday, highlighting any interesting things you learned.
Briefly summarize what you did in class on Thursday, highlighting any interesting things you learned.
Briefly summarize what work you did outside of class on either individual or group assignments. You may also include an estimate of the time spent outside of class.


I'm a junior in college. This is an upper-division class with projects. Just... really? I wouldn't expect something like this after middle school maybe.

It was nice out again today, so I grabbed a salad and took a walk to the park where I normally spend a lot of time. But when I got there, the whole place was surrounded by fence, my usual bench was gone, and a bunch of men were feeding all of my favorite trees in the world into a giant tree-shredder.

I really wanted to have a movie moment where I hopped the fence and chained myself to one of the trees and yelled something about taking away my favorite cherry trees where I used to go to clear my mind and eat my lunches and hammock and read and make memories taking pictures every spring when the cherry blossoms come out and spend hours calling my friends and family that I can't speak with in person. But I just kinda got super sad and watched the trees get shred to pieces. I didn't even get to eat my salad.

I could never shred trees for a living. Send me to hell instead.

I hope they didn't destroy it for some stupid reason, but maybe there was an infestation in the trees? They cut them down here when there really is a problem with them, never to "just make room for other things." Anyway, I hope you can find other trees nearby. I can't think of trees with prettier flowers in the spring than cherry blossoms. Especially the ones that look like little stars.

Exactly. Some of those things are good, like you aren't allowed to endorse drugs, violence and such things. But what if a youtuber have a channel and swears a lot, or maybe some other youtuber who likes to talk about politics. The thing is that those things have never been an issue, like I never heard anyone say something like "Youtube's such a bad site, people curse way too much" or "I hate that people are allowed to talk about politics on youtube".

I mean sure you can still do but not get money of it, but the thing is that a lot of people on youtube do it also for the money, I mean it takes time and effort to make good videos, so people deserves some money from it. And a lot of youtubers are probably going to be less active or quit if they can't get any money from it.

Any news outlet on YT can have all their videos demonitized for this, as can anyone who curses too much (by whatever arbitrary standards YT has put in place). People will undoubtedly find another medium if YT doesn't shape up, so they'd better figure something out fast.

The threat of non advertisement is definitely not something that's been up in the air before.
Keep in mind that this is just YouTube making this decision, too; advertisers have little to no control as to where in each specific category their ads go. That's why you'll find fracking ads or NRA ads on place like The Young Turks.
Curse words, whether you like them or not, shouldn't be grounds to defund someone. If that were the case for all cable news or speeches of any kind, Donald Trump would've gone bankrupt a 5th time.

So I got stood up by a friend in a suburb 10 miles away from where I live. Buses don't come for another half an hour. It's 40 degrees (F) and all I'm wearing is a long sleeved shirt.

Fuck, I've been a dick since I got back and I am really sorry. I still stand by my statement that they were not plagiarized, but at this point that's irrelevant.

I've been under so much stress since I started college full time a few weeks ago. I missed most of last week because I was really sick and I don't know how or if I'm going to catch up, the math homework is really hard and I'm supposed to be going for a math related degree. I don't know why I thought I'd be able to handle this shit.

Really depressing article.

QuoteCarson at the time acknowledged the surgery's shortcomings. "In a technological 'Star Wars' sort of way, the operation was a fantastic success," he told the Associated Press in 1989. "But as far as having normal children, I don't think it was all that successful."

Carson's campaign did not respond to repeated requests for an interview.

The twins' mother, Theresia Vosseler, described in a subsequent interview with a German magazine being racked with guilt for seeking the separation surgery that left her sons so impaired she had to send them to live in an institution.

In 1993, Vosseler told Freizeit Revue that she flew to Baltimore with "a healthy, happily babbling baby bundle and came back to Ravensburg with two lifeless, soundless, mentally and physically most severely damaged human bundles."

"I will never get over this," said a bitter Vosseler. "Why did I have them separated? I will always feel guilty. . . I don't believe in a good God anymore."

I suppose it was easy for Carson to overlook the ethical boundaries if the parents were desperate enough. Aaaand this guy wanted to be president at some point.

My band is taking a trip to Disney Land in Florida for spring break and none of my friends (in band, that is 6) are going on it. 2 of them have a valid reason: they are poor. The rest have pretty stupid excuses. 2 of them don't want to go. One doesn't want to make his parents spend money. And the other says that it is her sleep week. Now, I understand if you don't want to go for a specific reason. But, they just don't want to go which means that there's 2 less people I get to hang out with, and 2 less people going on the trip which equals a higher cost for everyone else (The more seats filled on the buses, the lower the cost). I get that my friend is trying to be nice by not making his parents spend money, except for the fact that he is a single child, his parents have plenty of money, and it's making everyone else pay more. The last friend just made me mad. I get that you want to get sleep, but do you not want to have a chance to hang out with your friends for half the spring break, or do you just want to sit alone all week being bored? I dunno if it's me being angry or them being frustrating, but I'm pretty mad that I have no friends who are going on the trip.

If somebody doesn't want to do something, I don't think it's reasonable to expect them to do it anyway just for the purpose of companionship and convenience for others. Especially for something as costly as a trip to Disney World. They have no obligation to spend that kind of money to do something they don't really want to do for your sake. But yeah, it isn't super fun doing something alone that you expected to be doing with friends.

Right, because the "school" was an elaborate scam granting "degrees" worth less than community college associate's.  If it was a real school they would have credits to transfer ::)

That's idiotic. Torrents are fairly widely used in our CS department to distribute large files because it's fast and doesn't overload servers. It's not like torrenting is illegal in any way. Just block the sites or discipline the people who download content illegally. I guarantee they can see exactly what you download anyway.

If you open your bulletin, you should see the purpose of an education. Hint, it's not just about manners, which you should learn outside of school by socializing. As NYU put it, "A university education aims not only to produce high quality scholars, but to also cultivate honorable citizens." If you're lucky, you would go to a school that does one.

What doesn't help though is that high schools teach us things that will never use again. These subjects are simply mandatory for no apparent reason. Meanwhile there are plenty of things (such as communication and money management) that are not taught in schools at all but will be used literally every day for the rest of our lives. The purpose of a school should be to prepare students for the real world. In reality the only purpose schools in America (and as far as I can tell, the UK as well) seem to be serving is to ensure that we have higher test scores than any other country. Students are not taught how to get a job, how to vote, how to manage money, how to parent, their human rights, the laws of their country, first aid, practical medicines, how the political system works, how to communicate, how to parent or how to cook. You could say that this is the responsibility of the parents but a few problems with that are boarding schools, parents who are too lazy, parents who are too busy, and children who don't have any parents at all. Are we to say that a person's success in the real world should depend on luck? No. The education system needs to change so that students are taught things that are actually practical instead of things that they will NEVER USE AGAIN. If you cannot explain why a subject is applicable to most people's lives, that subject should not be mandatory. Introduce those topics? Yes. But a student should CHOOSE to learn more.

While I agree not enough is done in the education system to prepare people for society, the vast majority of mandatory education is incredibly valuable. The point is not to make sure you know the difference between Florine and Floride for the rest of your life; it's to give you the exposure to the field and give you some idea of how the science works. You're not meant to remember specifically what the red hunting hat symbolizes, you're supposed to develop the skills to analyze anything that's ever been written. We learn history to understand how humans have behaved in the past, and how future decisions will change the world. I wouldn't be in support of dropping calculus as a high school course to implement a class about finances, or getting rid of a literature course for a formal etiquette course. We're moving toward becoming more educated as a species, so replacing academic learning with practical learning feels like taking a step backward. Especially because nobody is going to teach themselves calculus, but everybody at some point will learn how to manage money to a degree.

What I'm trying to say is that mandatory school is not at all useless even if the specifics aren't immediately applicable to your goals or interests, and many of these skills you're listing are better learned by experience and through society.

I'm not saying remove academic learning but I am saying every student does not need to have 8 mandatory semesters of literature, mmath, science, or history. Meanwhile there are a LOT of practical things they could be learning. Why do you think it is that the majority of voters have no idea what they're voting for? Did you know you have 30 human rights? Can you recite them? Money management is a huge problem. A majority of American people are in debt and so is the country itself but if students were taught how to budget that problem would be solved. I obviously won't be able to address every issue in a forum post but I am planning to start a YouTube channel where I will discuss various issues with the education system and various ways to fix them.

School is made for people to learn "basic academic skills" you need for college. After college, you don't need these skills unless it's in your daily job/schedule. I agree with you, the mandatory things they teach us aren't useful things we need to know as adults.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Zunawe on September 29, 2016, 06:47:40 PM
I'm curious, non-Americans, what kinds of social skills have you learned at school that wasn't part of an optional/special interest class? Specifically whether you were taught how to deal with money, taxes, loans, debt, credit, etc...

Again, I would agree that too much of each subject is not necessary for every student, but it's an education they will not receive outside of school. Courses applicable to your field of interest are taken in a higher education where learning about those topics is strictly necessary. But even then, who is going to take classes that aren't relevant unless it's mandatory? Well-roundedness sounds super annoying when applying to colleges and jobs, but isn't it valuable to progress? Engineering and writing don't seem very closely related at a first look because they're very separate topics, but communication drives technology. So if engineers don't have a strong grasp of the English language, the connotations of words they use, wordiness, etc... the progress is slowed and those engineers become less useful to the world and less successful themselves.

Also, most high schools require a semester of government and a semester of economics. A lack of political interest is due to the attitude toward politics in general rather than a lack of education.

Ninja addition: One of my least favorite things to hear is "I'll never use Algebra after high school. It's not useful in the real world." That is so wrong. Everything you learn is useful, and you use it even if you don't realize it. Yes, many high schools focus on preparing their students for college, but that's not its primary function.

Basically none. Maybe the odd one that gets mentioned once by a teacher, but there's nothing in the curriculum that mentions that stuff in detail.

At some point in early high school we spent a term looking at elections and all that. But it was mainly a look at the process (vote counting, scrutineers, what a ballot paper looks like), not on the game of politics. We also had an oratory competition every year which we all had to enter. But I'm pretty sure this wasn't the norm. There were some electives available like commerce or accounting but as far as compulsory classes go, it was minimal.

Over here, each province has its own little quirks with its education system (Québec's high school program ends at Grade 11 (or 5ième secondaire, rather) and then requires Cégep before going on to university), so I can really only compare things to my own province's system. We had a mandatory Social Studies 11 course (and provincial exam) that teaches modern Canadian history, along with things like politics, human geography and some basic economics.

Here in BC, they have a "Planning" class that's required for graduation, it's grade 10 level, but some people delay it until grade 12. It deals with topics such as finances, relationships, jobs, health, and how to graduate.
But they're completely changing the curriculum the year after I leave, it's going to be a "Career Education" class that I don't know about.

About the curriculum change over here, one of the arguments regarding mandatory math and science courses is that they are necessary to understand a world of increasing technological complexity, which is why they're going to start teaching about elementary particles to grade 8 students either this year or next year. They were also planning on doing special relativity and quantum physics in Grade 8, but it appears that the government has changed its mind. Students just entering high school are probably going to ask, "Why do I need to learn about leptons and quarks? I won't need that in real life", and... For the most part, they probably won't need it.
Actually just a bit salty since I wish I could have learned it in Grade 8

Yay! Sharing time :)

Talk about education in Singapore and everyone seems to have an opinion. It's, um...a messed-up but efficient system. I'll leave it at that.

To answer the question: no. Nothing at all. We aren't taught how to save our own skin once we get out to the real world. Financial management is something...you know, you kinda figure out. But then again, I think the concepts are drilled into the people with a combination of tight policies (forced savings, for example - google "singapore cpf" and revel in horror) and, maybe less so, Asian cultural values. Being conservative and careful and stuff.

When the government talks about money, it's usually something along the lines of: "we'll take some of your money and give you benefits, and then we'll return it in the future if our economy works out, but ensure you settle your own stuff first. If you can't do that we've got public counselling available..."

So no, we aren't taught social skills at all in class. But I like to think it's subtly drilled into us :p


That being said, I think my limited experiences kinda point to the universal understanding that going out and experiencing the world yourself is the only way to truly learn how to survive. Go get a job, go try making money for yourself before thinking about supporting a family, go figure out a way to build relationships. Make mistakes - reflect on them if you're humble enough. Trust in others because chances are you're clueless, but get out there.

Y'know, I think there comes a point where you can't "teach" social values anymore. Throwing people out on reins and letting them educate themselves along the way is probably the way to go~

Y'know, now that you mention cultures, I think they do play an important part in education, in how people are taught and in how people perceive learning. Maybe half of the population in my city is Chinese, and there's a bit of a mismatch between the Western education system and Asian cultural values. Since, as daj noted, the financial conservatism part is already drilled into us, the finances unit of the BC Planning course is seen as rather unnecessary.

My personal thoughts on the matter is that even if you're not taught about money management, job-seeking, and politics at school, there are so many resources out there that you should be able to learn about them outside of school. If you truly want to know something, don't wait for someone else to tell you, take steps to learn by yourself. School can't teach you everything, it only gives you a foundation that you can continue building on. Stuff like algebra, you can build on and apply in finances, where stuff like compound interest comes into play.

However this would imply that schools are teaching students to properly use resources. This would also imply that one haccess to those resources. Furthermore it leaves one important question. If people are expected to learn by use of resources that are not part of controlled education system then is the system truly necessary? Also just googling the practical things that every person needs to learn is completely nonsensical when you take into account the amount of impractical and unuseful information handed down to students. The current education system is so broken that schools are constantly cramming worthless information into the heads of students while simultaneously not allowing them to pursue their interests, destroying their creativity and causing copious amounts of stress which the students are ill-equipped to deal with. Students are forced  to learn numerous things they will never use and have no interest in so repetively that it has a deep psychological effect causing students to lose the desire to learn and subsequently their creativity. With the loss of creativity society and technology cannot progress. College is FAR too late to allow students to begin pursuing their interests. By that time the majority of students have lost the desire to learn. I have an idea for an education system that I believe would balance academic and practical information as well as allow students to pursue their interests and express their creativity and individuality. I will be releasing a YouTube video giving a full rundown of this system sometime during the month of October.

Had a pretty frustrating lesson today that we decided to end twenty minutes early because I couldn't properly play a single note. I haven't had this kind of day in a long time and I think it's because my senior recital rep is kind of overwhelming me--it's tremendously hard to memorize so much repertoire, especially when it's all more advanced stuff than I'm used to.

The problematic piece today was the third/fourth movement of Beethoven Sonata No. 28 Op. 101, in A Major. I'm not sure if I've taken on a piece this challenging ever (the first two movements are quite manageable by comparison, but the third is nonstop insanity). And I went in expecting to go through the entire thing and then discuss some practice techniques but my playing was so bad today that we spent forever on the first two pages, which is just introductory/transitional material, and then again on the next three pages, where he establishes the movement's main theme. So, not even halfway through the piece, and not even up to the section that's giving me immense trouble, which is when Beethoven arranges the theme into a four-voice fugue because he doesn't care about my health or wellbeing.

I never have lessons like this, and my professor could sense me getting frustrated and having that sort of day, so he was very encouraging and told me he's not concerned about me putting together my recital on time, that I'm one of his best students, etc. And I know everyone has these kinds of lessons once in a while, and that I'm already making good progress on other things. But I still feel kind of sick about it and I hope I can make more progress soon.

So then the argument is that students should be able to have more choice during high school, and school should be more engaging in general. Which would be cool. I certainly feel like I got that choice at my high school for most classes (maybe not English), but I was in a pretty wealthy area. What are some examples of all this useless information? You haven't really given any.

I'll admit to playing devil's advocate here; I was even thinking a couple days ago about how I don't really have a great reference for how to manage money. But to call the current education curriculum useless is pretty extreme.

As a high school student now, I'd like to input my thoughts on the matter of the education system in America.

Regarding being taught "useless" knowledge:
The way I see it, it's a way to give everybody equal knowledge on various subjects, which could then be expanded upon later in life. If you decide to go into history but then change your mind and want to do math instead, you've already done a lot of the studying and only need to refresh(a lot easier than learning completely unfamiliar concepts from scratch). If we were to choose our path early on in school and have focus on only that all our lives, it would be incredibly difficult to switch to something else. You would be in your 20s trying to learn high school math for the first time. And the youth in general, especially in America, seem to not be able to focus on one thing for a very long time without changing their mind. For that reason I believe having a strong foundation on basic academic subjects is important, regardless of what career path you'll take.

Regarding not being taught the important stuff:
Let's face it, most people don't have the slightest interest in learning about the real world before high school. I think that having optional classes in high school would be good enough. Besides, it's stuff that you can learn from experiencing life, not just listening to lectures. The focus of high school should be to equip you with learning skills, rather than life skills. The latter is a lot of experimentation and intuition.

I think the current system is fine, and far from useless.

As for useless info here's a few things school has drilled into my head.
1. The elements on the last column on the periodic table cannot bond with other elements.
2. Hitler was born in Austria.
3. Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.
4. The Protestant Reformation was started by Martin Luther.
5. The quadratic equation. [-b(+or-)the square root of(4ac)]/2a
6. How to solve a system of equations.
7. How to multiply matrices.
8. My class actually dissected a cow's eye.
9. Anything I ever learned about Shakespeare.
10. Anything I ever learned about Edgar Allan Poe.,
11. Anything I ever learned about William Faulkner.
12. Anything I ever learned about Robert Frost.
13. Tobacco was the best selling crop of the southern American colonies.
14. Oxygen has an atomic number of 6.
15. Columbus thought he was in India.
16. Imaginary numbers.
17. Irrational numbers.
There are many others but I won't list them all.



When I say the education system is unuseful I'm referring to the fact that students are not left with enough information that they can use in the real world. I've stated before that I have an idea for a better education system that provides a basic academic education and practical information to use in the real world as well as allowing students to express their creativity and individuality while also not giving them an overwhelming sense of stress and anxiety. I will try to release a YouTube video giving a full rundown of this system sometime during the month of October.

lol sorry if knowledge is useless to you. But we'll always need McDonald's cashiers and Mario-type plumbers so I guess if you really want to, you can find someplace to be in this world.

Now as far as the math and chemistry is useless stuff...it's bullshit. Because I understand how certain things work and how to use math, I never have to memorize much to be able to solve problems. The biology majors and their lack of math are remembering how to use/when to use 20 formulas for one test and I'm watching THE STRUGGLE. If you also really want to understand science, you can see how certain laws are derived from basic calculus. Again, I am watching the non-math students suffer in thermodynamics.

So math doesn't help you with finances? What is involved working with finances? Why shouldn't you read about some actual wise person's views on life? I took a lot of art history courses and they helped me with making art. The actual use of knowledge is to be able to apply it.

Also you forgot about grammar. The easiest way to not sound like a dumbass is to have good grammar. Which you learn by GASP...reading.

hahahaha good point xD

QuoteAccording to the prevailing view among historians,[218] his anti-Jewish rhetoric contributed significantly to the development of antisemitism in Germany,[219] and in the 1930s and 1940s provided an "ideal underpinning" for the Nazis' attacks on Jews.[220] Reinhold Lewin writes that anybody who "wrote against the Jews for whatever reason believed he had the right to justify himself by triumphantly referring to Luther." According to Michael, just about every anti-Jewish book printed in the Third Reich contained references to and quotations from Luther. Heinrich Himmler wrote admiringly of his writings and sermons on the Jews in 1940.[221] The city of Nuremberg presented a first edition of On the Jews and their Lies to Julius Streicher, editor of the Nazi newspaper Der Stürmer, on his birthday in 1937; the newspaper described it as the most radically anti-Semitic tract ever published.[222]

Wikipedia also says Luther's health problems might have influenced him to write these crazy-ass rants. Senility too, maybe?

I didn't say that all math is useless. Yes, grammar is important but you learn that in elementary and middle school. I'm also not saying that some pieces of information won't be useful in certain career paths. I am, however, stating that this information does not apply to the average person's life. I am also stating that schools DO NOT teach a lot of information that the average citizen needs. While the idea of 'you should learn through real world experience' sounds good on paper, it just doesn't happen. A large majority of people are in debt, have no idea how to vote or what their voting on, have no idea how to look after their health or how to recognize severe mental disorders, how to budget and manage money, how to properly analyze the news, how to communicate respectfully and effectively, how to pay tax, how to get a job, or how to parent. I am not stating that I won't use some of the information I learned in school, but I am stating that the average person won't.

Here's an idea for you.
Academics are taught up until 8th grade. (remedial academics courses are taken further as needed)
Subjects that apply to the real world such as how to get a job, money management, and how to parent are taught in 9-11.
Meanwhile electives in 9-11 are courses that are taken based on a student's choice and interests.
NO FRIDAYS.
Studies have shown that when students are given Fridays off, it reduces their stress levels and allows the to produce better grades.
NO HOMEWORK
Same as above.
Senior year is for exploring different career fields to see what they may or may not be interested in. Each student will take different courses based on what they believe they might be interested in and will be exploring multiple career fields throughout their entire senior year.
College
College will remain the same as it currently is. Students will take courses that are applicable to their chosen career field.

This is also true. If the point of school is to prepare you for the real world, then it shouldn't be giving you comforts that the real world doesn't give you (at least, not during the last two, three, or possibly four years of high school education, when it really starts to get important).

I fail to see how this counters my argument. While producing grades may not be the goal, it is currently the only way schools can measure whether a not a student is ready. Having no homework or a reduced amount leads to lower stress levels and students will make better grades. source (http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/article/down-homework) Just because grades is not the goal does not mean anything. The goal of abolishing homework is to reduce stress. Stress is one of the key factors in reducing one's desire to learn. A


Friday's off does happen in several schools and it has been shown that students are not as stressed. I am attending a college right now where there are no Friday classes and I can tell not only from my own experience and from what I've been told by other students that it does indeed lower stress levels. Meanwhile I have talked to many people that say college life is stressful and it comes as no surprise to me that they have mountains of homework and have classes every day.

While it is true that employees do not get Fridays off (in most cases) I fail to see any evidence that supports that they often have work to bring home. More often then not what I see is people choosing to do extra work at home because they love what they do. If your job is something that you love to do, then there is no reason why it should be stressful.

How to vote is a 10-minute discussion with anybody who's ever voted. There are plenty of ways to understand legislature and policy. The most important part of that understanding comes from knowledge of the three branches and their powers, which is probably the single most important aspect of the already mandatory government classes.

I would say that this comes with basic math and logic skills. What you're talking about is probably advice on how to do so effectively, which is subjective and not something that can or should necessarily be taught in schools.

Quote from: BoywithoutaFairy on October 01, 2016, 01:53:14 PMhow to communicate respectfully and effectively
Many schools require a public speaking class, and those that don't typically strongly recommend it. While an ethics class might also help in this department, I would say it's less valuable to learn about in a classroom than any other mandatory course.
Quote from: BoywithoutaFairy on October 01, 2016, 01:53:14 PMhow to pay tax

Quote from: BoywithoutaFairy on October 01, 2016, 01:53:14 PMor how to parent
This isn't something schools should touch unless they want to get angry calls from everybody. Health classes do talk about the needs of a child, but I suppose it could be improved a bit.

Whoa, no. This is a hard step in the wrong direction. Sure students get stressed. You know what's stressful? Life. Forget the Friday thing that cuts out 20% of the time students have to learn. Homework accounts for basically all learning. Hearing somebody talk at you does very little for understanding how to do something. People need practice and examples. If it's too stressful, that's the fault of the student and/or teacher. Homework also teaches time management. Getting rid of homework cripples education.

And if we did this and kept college the same, students would be so behind it would take a good 6 or 7 years to get a degree.

As an engineering student, my GPA would be over a full point lower if I didn't have homework. Banning homework for a math/physics/programming class means the student either doesn't get any practice, doesn't learn as much material, or learns at a pace too difficult to reasonably keep up.

Of course this is my opinion based on my experience, but removing homework isn't all good.

being asexual doesn't really have much to do with marriage, but you're only 16 and you've got plenty of time to worry about that stuff later.  It's still a good idea to pay attention to what your parents are saying because at the worst they've at least raised more kids than you have and it seems like their kids are turning out alright.

Let me just tell you... sometimes, parents can do stuff that messes their kids up so bad that they end up turning out good. Sometimes.

Overall, I think it would just be better to say "Learn from what your parents did right, and learn from what they did wrong."

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on October 01, 2016, 08:10:25 PMbeing asexual doesn't really have much to do with marriage, but you're only 16 and you've got plenty of time to worry about that stuff later.  It's still a good idea to pay attention to what your parents are saying because at the worst they've at least raised more kids than you have and it seems like their kids are turning out alright.

If he's saying "maybe I don't want to get married or have kids" and his family is forcefully steering him in that direction that's not okay and listening to his parents isn't the best idea. I've been through the same conversation with my parents, though they only expressed sadness that I might not experience those parts of life--a pretty healthy reaction, unlike the one E. Gadd is getting.

This morning, there was an incident with a man brandishing a machete on my campus. We got a text/email alert with the message "Armed man with machete is in the Champion Center. Take appropriate protective action." Which I will admit is a strange text to receive at 9:30 in the morning. The first thing my roommate does is send us a screenshot of the message with the caption "I'm dying xD". A couple memes are thrown around in response. Ten minutes later, we get another alert saying "Police have apprehended the suspect and the situation is under control." It turns out the man was shot and killed. Now I get that some people are more comfortable joking about otherwise serious matters, but the first response to something like this should not be laughter. At the point my roommate sent that message, we had no idea if anybody was injured, dead, being held hostage, etc... It bothers me so much that during the last minutes of a man's life (even if he was an awful person), my roommate was laughing at it like it was a joke.

Yikes, sorry to hear that. People grow up at different rates, and you never know, your roommate might've realised his joke was not all that appropriate soon after laughing about it. Try not to think too bad of society because of this incident, no-one can ever be free from making mistakes. I wholeheartedly agree though that it is upsetting to see/hear about. :(

So, yesterday, not replcing the cracked glass on my phone came back to bite me. A big white bar appeared on the side. I thought, "Ok, this is annoying, but I may be able to work around it for a while." Then, later that day, a faint green fog started to show up along the cracks that had been fine for nearly 2 months. I woke up this morning to find that the green kryptonite fog had turned a deep shade of purple, that only spread throughout the day. Now, the screen won't turn on at all and it's vibrating like aliens are trying to send me a message in morse code, but some cat decided to play with the signaling device.

I feel the need to say this here, because I can't figure out how/when/where to say this irl without sounding like I'm begging for attention and people will feel bad if they don't give it to me.
Anyway, The debate tournament was fun. I didn't do as well as I could have, but I really think I learned a lot and will do better next time, but that's not really the problem. The problem is, well, highschool is basically repeating itself, albeit better, but still repeating itself. I honestly may be being to hard on myself, but I feel like I'm always "that other guy" who no one really notices or remembers because I'm just a tad too passive and introverted. This might not be that bad, but it's compounded by how much effort I'm putting in to actually be involved with people. While it's clearly not as much, and doesn't come naturally for me at all, I'm honestly trying. And I just feel ignored most of the time. The worst part is, whenever that happens, I just think of how much easier it would be to do my own thing and live in my own little world for the next 4 years of college, but I know I can't. Just simply being around people, with the exception of one small group of friends who are basically the only freshmen as nerdy as I am, is terribly draining. Way more than it should be. That said, that nerdy group of friends all live on the floor above me, so I never really talk at anytime except when we eat together, and I don't drop by because I have no social skills and don't know how. Idk. Maybe I just need more rest.

....

Oh no, I'm sorry :( Try not to beat yourself up over not feeling like you're socialising enough, you're not doing anything wrong. I can definitely relate - I never liked how everyone was always expected to be chatty and sociable both in high school and college and was never able to force myself to be someone I'm not. Try to relax, and if you meet people who you can relate to, feel free to take the first step and come up and talk to them (just bring along some snacks or something, or ask if they'd like to go watch a movie as a group). Another option could be to join a club - I didn't find one that I would be interested in, but you might find an interesting bunch of people there!
I think you should already be proud of yourself that you're trying to reach out to other people., just keep practising :)

Just a reminder that while civil discourse is welcome, discrimination is not tolerated. As PDS said, this is a settled matter as far as the US is concerned regarding marriage performed by the state; marriage within a religious institution is another matter altogether. If you still have problems with the decision rendered I kindly ask you to express them privately as, once again, discrimination is not tolerated.

Marriage has been a legal practice long since any of the Abrahamic religions. It's just the legal promotion (and in effect subsidization) of all the benefits that come with settling down with a partner.

You can have opinions, but you can't stop people from telling you why you're wrong. In fact, it looks like you actually tried to silence people who disagreed.

Besides, you're saying these people shouldn't have certain rights (or maybe you've done more than just talk), and you feel you're the victim? EGO?! What the hell...

You know, sometimes I feel that my lack of nationalism/patriotism is kind of sad. I don't really feel like an "American", whatever that term means, the great majority of the time. I've always just been the uber liberal atheist musician in Portland (where I have more of a sense of patriotism, albeit not much). Sometimes I wish it was different.
Then I see the Bundy gang let off completely free after literally taking up arms against the government, and I laugh.

Funny how you say that, because I in a way feel kind of the same as you. I don't really feel so "Swedish". In contrary to America, Sweden has kind of a culture of being "just enough", nothing to crazy and wild. It's fine if you cheer for Sweden in sports events and wave your flag there, but if you're taking it farther and goes around saying Sweden is better than everybody else that's nationalism... which is close to rasism which is bad. Kind of funny how your views about atheism, not being so patriotic and liberalism really is some core values in the Swedish culture.
But I however, in contrary to you, have throughout my entire life had strong opinions about things, when people like my dad and my brother talked about how it's nice that Sweden doesn't brag to much in politics and stuff, I disagreed and thought that Sweden so step forward and be proud of what we've done in the world and stuff. And after watching some American politics and culture stuff, I kind of like some American values and relate to them. Like the republican party and it's conservatism. But I don't really let it bother me that some of my opinions aren't that "Swedish". Instead I just hope for some change. There seem to be a rise of conservatism throughout Europe, which I in some ways like. And in Sweden a new party, The Sweden Democrats, has really rose into the politics from having below 4% of the votes to having like 20% of the votes. I kind of however think it's both good and bad, good in a way that they are a conservative party and have conservative views on politics, but also bad because the party has been accused of a lot of bad things and have had some really bad scandals.

Well, yeah, I kinda feel the same, there's some (not really extreme, but strong) Canadian patriotism all over the country, and people light to put on bright red and white lights and play Canadian music and talk about mounties and beavers and maples, but to me, it doesn't feel right. And even though I'm ethnically Chinese, I don't feel a strong connection to the ricefields of my forefathers. I'm just an anomaly, I suppose, but I'm fine with it. I'm also technically American, but again, I don't feel like what an American should be. I'm just me.

For a long time I didn't have any sense of patriotism.  I pretty much didn't say the pledge of allegiance throughout most of elementary and middle school.  At some point I just learned a greater appreciation for how much effort went into making America what it is and what it represents.  It really is a great and beautiful nation and a lot of people worked hard to get to where we are today.  I understand the whole "this country sucks" feeling that you sometimes get when stuff like Donald trump nominations happen.  I think a lot of Americans feel the same way you do PDS but it's important to remember how unique and diverse America is and that's what gives it its strong patriotism

You're forgetting to mention the long history of oppression we have (though I'm sure you're aware of it). I appreciate the secular values and emphasis on freedom America gives, but if we're going to accept those things, we also have to accept the slavery, Native American genocide, etc.

Sensible but truthful rant inc (not for the weak of heart):

God sometimes I just hate myself... During the last...years, I've felt so confused. I remembered in high school how a lot of people were really nasty and just rude people. Before that I went in a really nice school, the entire class was like one big family. And then I went to high school and even though there were a lot of nice people, a lot of people were really rude, one of my best friends from the school even described them as "really dangerous". Then after that I went to "the next level of school", in Sweden called "gymnasium". And it was completely different. It was like in my first school but like even "better" in a way. Everyone was super friendly. But it was also sort of sad, as I had a really depressive time at that time. And I have throughout my life was confused of what is right and what is wrong. Personally my biggest issue is that I felt like being as some people in high school is positive in that it is "manly" and "strong". But I also really hate it, because first of all it's considered very rude and just pure harmful. And secondly, and to be completely honest, it just fucks up my brain. Like literally, it feels I'm "chained" and not free and it just hurts my brain physically like "knives scratching in my head". But even though the pain I don't want to go back and be a "sympathetic" person like I was in my first school. I'm afraid that if I go back to that, sometime I'm gonna get "bullied" some time in the future and get as chocked as I got when I was in high school. But being so strict and defensive is also so annoying, because everything just loses it's value. I love the sweet feeling I've got when I've played some memorable games. The best example being Wild Arms, the memories are so sweet. And now I live in this weird middle position... To draw a reference to Undertale, which is a game everyone on this site has played and knows about. I'm feeling like Chara having completed the Genocide run, but now I want to go back and revive all those I killed, but in reality the only one I killed was myself.  >:( :'( :'( :'( :'(

So,
to keep it out of the way...
>:( apparently homework isn't a priority to my parents. I'm being dragged around to different relatives' houses so my sister can trick/treat, and here I have APUSH homework and reading for AP Lang. UGHHHHHH I already asked my parents if I could stay home so I could finish it, but they said "No, family first" The thing that gets me is that just a month(?) ago, he was ranting & shouting about how homework needs to be my #1 priority, and nothing else needs to even be THOUGHT of before I finish it. I have VERY little respect for hypocrites.

Noc I really appreciate that you're always there when I'm in trouble willing to help me out. But what I didn't say in my post is that, even though I got some problems, I also got great self-awareness. So I going to try to combat my problems myself, and tbh it's way better than before, I really had hard time some years ago, I was always so angry or sad, now my feelings seems a lot more milder which is what I want. So I'm going to try "helping myself up", I believe that is the way I can move forward in life. I got a job now, so if I try to improve my life I can move forward to get to my other goals, which I sort of have list in my head: get a girlfriend, get a house, maybe a car, and then just have fun and enjoy life, maybe win some smash tourney, who knows.

Smaller rant:
I just slept pretty poorly this night :(. I've always have had trouble sleeping, and I've always tried to fix the problem and to sleep well and I'm still trying. Yesterday I slept really well actually and I woke up at a good time, way better than usually. But arghh... this night I just slept pretty poorly and woke up kind of late, not the worst bud still not all that great.

My friend who's Korean has been struggling significantly lately because she doesn't have a good enough grasp of English to write the kind of papers our professor has been expecting. So she asked to see my Analytical Techniques exam a couple weeks ago so that she could understand what the questions were asking and how to approach answering them.

She fucking blatantly copied my exam. And the professor, who also happens to be the head of the music department, discussed this with me today. At this point I'm just hoping I don't get EXPELLED. But mostly I'm busy hating my friend for copying my answers. I'm so angry and so upset. I've never felt more angry or stressed.

Noc and dude helped me pin down my fatigue to depression, which is probably pretty accurate
I guess it should have been fairly obvious to me but I avoided it because I don't want to be labled as "sad", since I'm really not. I'm just worn out, never want to do anything, and find no meaning in anything. I guess not being to get a good sleep has something to do with that.

But all in all I don't really care what my condition is called, I just want to get some damn sleep and actually feel good about it. I don't recall ever getting up and not feeling like crap and laying on the ground for the whole day

Ok no. Sorry to be rude here, it was really nice for Noc to talk to you, but he isn't a doctor and the fatigue you're describing can be (not saying it is) indicative of some serious conditions and you'd be incredibly dumb not to have that ruled out by a professional.

We weren't saying it was definitely depression and only that, just that he should probably go to a professional since he has feelings like the ones he's experiencing.

Braix didn't mention intending to see a doctor and I'm not gonna let him avoid that under the possible pretense of bad advice. If I read the sitation wrong and chose to say something, then I look like a dick. If I'm right and don't say anything, then I'm letting braixen harm himself - which is a much worse alternative.

I think (and correct me if I'm wrong here, Slow) that showing her exam questions is technically an offense (and I shouldn't use "technically", since it's probably taken pretty seriously) though, so that's probably what they're more concerned about.
The plus side is that since she copied you verbatim, you can prove it was your work. Probably you can get the best case scenario by giving some kind of a line about helping her since her English was subpar (though review the English language test requirements if you want to be 100% sure of all the rules in it).
Still, that sucks, and I agree to rat her out. You took time to help her when you weren't obligated to, and she might be costing you a grade in the class; not okay.

It's absolutely an offense, and I signed a waiver on the test saying I wouldn't collaborate or show the test to anyone. So I'm definitely in the wrong for letting her see the test. But I still feel like, even though it's partially my fault, it's moreso hers for actually taking my work. And she didn't copy me verbatim, just based on her answers she had obviously been looking at my test from what I can tell (and I think completely copied my harmonic analysis, which is incredibly dumb because our mistakes would be the same). And my professor knows she's the one who copied, and I explained my reasons for letting her look at the exam and that she did it without my knowledge. So it all comes down to what's going to be the penalty. It's not just a grade in the class, it's potentially THE grade in the class. And I'm just sad and upset I caused something like this to happen.

Didn't rule out sleep apnea, I'm just fairly certain that I'm depressed and I think at least part of my fatigue may be from that.
I don't want to go into specifics, but I can't really go to a doctor and get things checked out. The most I can really do at the moment is try to understand what's going on so I can more readily try to deal with it myself. Hopefully I can get my problems looked at by a professional in the future but right now it isn't an easy option for me.

@Slow Yeah, you done goofed by showing her in the first place. While she is at fault for making the whole situation worse, it's still entirely your responsibility.

Quote from: braixen1264 on November 01, 2016, 08:34:25 PMDidn't rule out sleep apnea, I'm just fairly certain that I'm depressed and I think at least part of my fatigue may be from that.
I don't want to go into specifics, but I can't really go to a doctor and get things checked out. The most I can really do at the moment is try to understand what's going on so I can more readily try to deal with it myself. Hopefully I can get my problems looked at by a professional in the future but right now it isn't an easy option for me.

Depression and faitgue go hand and hand and both can be a symptom of the other. Sleep apnea is probably the most likely thing, but there's a hell of a lot of other things that can present themselves as hypersomulance and fatigue. Diabetes, mono, metabolic disorders, etc. etc. etc.

The best thing to do for yourself at the momentif you can't go to the doctor is regiment ~9 hour sleep schedule and don't over or under sleep (sorry for the captian obvious :3.)

Sleep apnea is currently the least likely thing I'd argue.

Anyway slow just don't worry or stress about it because what's done is done and stressing over things you can't control or change isn't productive

I just realized how dependent I am on audiostretch.com/audiostretchforflash/. The site is currently down and HOPEFULLY it'll be up but there's no guarantee for that happening. It's literally the best slow-downer and it's so simple so you'd think there is some software like that, but I haven't found one. The best thing about audiostretch is that you can slow down songs to 0% so it literally stops. It may sound a bit crazy and that I'm picky but it really helps arranging and I actually need it a lot of times to get perfect scores. Kind of mad that it's the only one there, you may think that there should be more softwares that could slow down songs how much you'd want, but most sofwares seem to have some limit at 20% or so. >:(

Y I could use audacity, in fact I'm already using it. But I like being able to slow down songs on-the-fly. It's a huge benefit since I don't always need to slow down songs, but at certain parts I need to. Haven't you used it Braix??

I use Transcribe! but it's not the nicest looking, nor free and has a bit of a learning curve before you can use it efficiently. That said, while it doesn't have quite the audio quality when slowing down that audiostretch has, it has a lot more features, and is still much more user friendly than audacity. You could always just use windows media player's slowdown effect if you wanted, as Olimar does, but you can't loop everything there. I haven't found anything that lets you slow stiff down to 0%, but I found out after a bit that I was using that feature like a crutch. I honestly think my sense of relitive pitch has gotten much better now.

so on tuesday morning (about 2 AM) I went to wal mart to grab some food and I checked the seasonal aisle for some possible leftover halloween candy, and the aisle was already full of christmas stuff.  It really ticks me off how commercial christmas is.  I realize that this time of year boosts the economy, and I know it's a bit ironic that Halloween is almost as commercial yet it's my favorite holiday, but for the past few years I've just begun to hate the holiday season.

@Tobbeh

"Now would be a good time to..."
Try out a DAW, like Reaper (http://www.reaper.fm/download.php) perhaps. It's free (should be even after the trial period if you ignore their startup prompts,) and has a nice slowdown slider along with other useful tools, like awesome looping and other stuffs! (I think it's great for arranging, but learning a DAW can take some time :P)

(didn't read the text below). Thank you gavst3r!!! Didn't thought about that. Y, I really like audiostretch in that it's simple and can slow down songs so effectively. But I might try out some software if it (getting very repetitive) can slow down songs to 0% speed.

I mean y... but the thing is, I mostly have it on 10-40% or so. But there are times where I really need to be able to just freeze the song. I really want to make my arrangements as good as possible, so I really like to be able to completely freeze the song to really get the details in. And I don't get why you seem to think it's a big thing, like I'm handicapped and needs to take it note by note, but it really is not the case. It just got to be annoying to loop the song over and over again to hear a specific chord or something, I prefer slowing it down to 0%, freezing the song, to get those notes done.

You'll never improve your arrangement skills if you don't challenge yourself.
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]
Post by: Latios212 on November 05, 2016, 12:05:00 PM
Everyone has their own arranging style and preferences. Some will stick to Youtube 50% speed, some will use DAWs to cut down on background noise to hear the notes better, etc., but at the end of the day, as long as you are able to hear the notes in the original and transcribe them accurately then I think that's okay. I don't believe making use of 0% speed is a bad thing, as you're still doing the work yourself by transcribing the notes directly from the source material. Challenging yourself is definitely a better way to improve at arranging (I've learned a lot from various difficult songs I've tried), but that doesn't necessarily mean restricting the tools you have at your disposal just for the sake of it. Trying to arrange music coming directly out of a Game Boy at full speed would be harder, for example, but that's just inefficient and silly.

Post by: Tobbeh99 on November 05, 2016, 12:16:09 PM
Latios, you really understands me :).

And Dude, I sometimes tries to challenge myself by having a higher speed, but usually not to "challenge" me, more because it goes faster arranging that way. I remember seeing some youtube comment where there was a person with perfect pitch who claimed to be able to memorize and transcribe songs even at a high speed after just one listen! And I mean that would be the dream, but it really only is a dream, I need to take it slow for it to work, but it does work as I have arranged over 200 songs this way and I think you all could say that they are also well done, not done overhasty.

I feel as if being friendly isn't enough. I feel like most people I think I'm friends with would rather just not notice me and not be noticed by me, so that they don't have to take the brief amount of time to simply say "hello" as they walk by, like it's a burden to them. Maybe it's because people want you to adopt their lifestyle and follow their ways to a T, and anything else is too disconcerting or "away from the norm" to them—just not worth their effort (like they have a certain amount of "friendship points" they're worried about exerting; ha). There's the "upper middle class" group; the "sports players/fanatics" group; the "'nerd'/'geek'" group; the "super religious" group; the "theater/dance" groups; and so on (and that's not even considering the fraternities/sororities and the International Program juniors). But trying to bridge the gaps and just be friends with people from all sort of different "groups" has left me nowhere; everyone's already sequestered into their little tight-knit friend groups, and that leaves me outside every single one of them, because I'm not enough like any one of them. Maybe I'm just too friendly?

Oh well, time to go back to being a virtual hermit. Maybe the freshmen next year will give me another chance to form meaningful connections. On the bright side, at least I'll have a little more time for schoolwork now (and NSM too!).

The best way to console a friend who's grieving is ask how they're holding up. Just small things, like "How are you doing?" or say you're there if he needs to ever talk about it. It shows you're there for him, but also understand he's not ready to talk about it just yet.

Remember all the group stuff in high school, those weren't really stereotypical groups but there were groups. I sort of think I was in the "nerd group", but we had one "black (or maybe white) sheep" who was constantly complaining "why do I hang out with you guys!? You guys are lame", (kind of funny guy) but even though that he still was around with us and all. After that I went to "Gymnasiet" (next level school) where everyone was really nice and all, so I could be myself more. And I found myself as some sort of "nomad", just wandering around hanging with different groups, and also A LOT of time alone. Maybe it's just how I am, or maybe it's how everybody are but I haven't really noticed that.

Now, I was expecting bad news: he's been gradually declining in health over the past few months, especially during the time I've been gone. I was expecting her to say that we were going to have to put him down when I got back. That, I suppose I could have tolerated well. When I called her, she said that when she woke up, he had pale gums and difficulty breathing, and they had to put him down earlier today. After a difficult week, this was really the last thing I wanted to hear.

As I'm looking through the answer key now, it seems I've lost a minimum of 10 points (out of 100) to incorrect grading. The key is ambiguous enough that I'm not sure about a couple more. 10% of my grade on this test because the TA was lazy. And I am undoubtedly not the only one. People sometimes.

Kind of, but I have strong doubts of having him as the president of USA. Him having a lot of scandals and basically no experience in politics.

Days later, I feel a bit better about the president elect, mainly because of the fact that it seems that the running president and other former opponents are willing to give him a shot. What I am NOT feeling better about however are the riots. Just nearby a kid in a school got vigorously bullied because his parents were pro trump and he wanted to work on homework instead of cut class for a protest. This should not be happening, and now it seems the old "one bad thing goes away and another replaces it" is happening...

This is EXACTLY what happened in Sweden some years ago when the nationalistic party Sweden Democrats made it through the 4% bar, and therefore made it into the government. People held lots of protests, the biggest probably being the one where people gathered at "Sergels Torg" (The central square of Stockholm) at a big protest. After a while it calmed down a bit though. Hope it does so for you in the USA too.

A cat I loved and helped my aunt adopt two years ago died today, and despite talking to her yesterday about other things she never gave me any warning (despite him apparently showing signs of issues for a few days now).

Being raised as one who never cries over petty matters due to being a male (dad's enforcement made me who I am so therefore its hard to change my mindset), I instead have to react with anger, and most importantly hatred towards my aunt for not giving me any heads up about this. Apparently they had an idea of what was wrong and wanted to give it a shot but of course they charged a crazy amount of money for it and my aunt couldn't pay up. Despite me having paranoia of the cat being not the best of condition (having seen him last month and noticed how he was skinny no matter what) I was told that they took him to the vet over and over and over again and they found nothing wrong with him at all. It is my belief that the vets in WI are horribly incompetent in this case, since I know my aunt didn't want him dead either but it seems that they couldn't find an easy fix.

My Moon copy is also late but that's nothing in comparison to this, and now I feel the game won't make things better.

expect me to be aggressive for the next few weeks or more.

My cello had to be returned a few days ago because of problems with the rental company. Luckily it's not the end of the world because my school has student cellos so the 20 or so cellists don't have to bring their instruments to school every orchestra day. This also gives me a chance to try out a full size cello, I had my 3/4 for a few years and it might be a good time to get a full. (yay puberty!)

Man hard day at work today. Had worked overtime a couple of days or so. And today's was really tough, I ate too little and was really hungry after work and I had to have the full responsibility for a certain position on the workstation as the guy whom I work with there was at... hospital or something I think, and also for having back problems, like a crick or something (it shows the importance of taking care of your back when working at a physical-demanding working place!). But y my work is kind of tough, sometimes it feels kind of similar to being in the military service, but probably a level or 2 down, running around with time stress and ton of work just everywhere. It's kind of crazy, but also pretty fun :).

From one thing to sort of the other. The more I watch videos of Nagito Komaeda, the more do I recognize myself in him!! It's fucking crazy. Weeby News talks about how he's "diagnosed" Frontotemporal Dimentia and Alzheimer's Desease. And the first I can regonize myself in being so narcissistic (I remember starting to play melee competitively and just after learning how to like wavedash and dash-dance thought I could pretty much beat everyone, and was really sad when that wasn't the truth). And Alzheimer, well I feel like I'm very spontanous, at work sometimes I find myself in situations like "where did I lay that paper??? argh". I try to take it easy and one step at a time, but also believing more in my intuition as my "routines" and "good habits" seemed to be stored there. And sometimes I'm just randomly super lucky! There was some lottery in a Yu-gi-oh tournament where you can win the "Original Duel Field Mat". And I Bet that if I 1) cared about the map and 2) was in a good mood, I'd win that map! I'm almost certain of it. Sometimes things goes as I want them to go, it's weird but there is some truth inside that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  :P

And even in his analysis video, by weebnewz, she used trumpet music, which I love. The trumpet exist in just so many themes I love, like "Halberd/Meta Knights revenge", "Revenge of the Meta Knight (Kirby SSU)", All kinds of WIld Arms songs like Wild Arms 2 intro.

Man hard time at work atm. I've been given more responsibilities and work duties from my boss. And even though I understand him and I respect the company, it's kind of rough. Starting earlier tomorrow, working overtime, and that's the thing. I want to have a steady and stable working scheme, but it's really not so atm. I'm very sure because it's winter and that means a lot of work for the company, so there really not much I can do about it. I think it's going to stabilize later next month and become calmer so maybe I get a more stable working schedule then. But now it's really fluctuating, but I see it as a responsibility to use my abilities (being able to be flexible) for the best of the company, as not everyone is able or have the will to work in that way.

Even though it may be hard, it's probably a good step forward for you. Even though taking on more responsibilities can be painful, being given them shows that your boss trusts in you and your abilities. Just keep working through this, and make sure that you still make time for yourself, and you'll be good. The fact that you can handle this, and I know you can, reflects very highly on your character and resolve.

I don't really see it as "responsibilities", even though technically it is, I see it more as just "more (hard)work", but I'm fine with that as long as I have other people helping me out so that the workload is more split up or divided, you could say.

My father and I don't really have the greatest relationship. My parents divorced when I was so young, I don't remember him doing much fathering. And even so, anything after that, any time with him was just.... eh. And not too long ago, I learned that he's spent his entire time married to my mom gambling and lying about it. He never wanted to pay for anything - not my sister's and I college, not for my sister's weddings, and not even for the baby my sister is having. Always lied he was soooo broke and then he just spends all his time gambling, because that's a better use of money than supporting his children.

He was taken to the emergency room earlier this week, and isn't looking too great. My sister told me I don't have to, but should consider visiting him "before I regret anything". But, the thing is, I don't know if I honestly care? I don't have a relationship with him. I think he's a scumbag who never wanted to support me and my sisters because gambling was somehow a better route for his money. This man was never an actual "father" to me, and my stepdad is more of an actual dad if anything.

I feel really numb to the fact my dad might be dying. And it's weird.

Instead of gambling, though, it's impulse buying for him. I don't know what to do, either. For these last 1.5 years I'll be living with him. If you need to talk to me, I'll be there for you.

Well, today I ended up somehow going. Today is my sister's birthday so we were all gonna meet for brunch (her, me, my other sister and mom) and sister A calls my mom in hysterics saying oh the nurse won't talk to her it's bad oh no so my mom ends up taking me over to make sure sister A is fine. Yadda yadda I end up having to go to the room he's in and goddamn.

I felt NOTHING. Sister A is weeping next to me and I'm just standing there, uncomfortable and awkward and thinking about how much I did not want to be there. Sister B comes, my dad's sister comes too and they're asking the nurse all about it and god I just don't care I don't

So, there answers my question. I don't give a damn and visiting won't do anything for me.

Wow, everyone's like completely disregarding me today :P. First you guys don't acknowledge my post in "made mah day" (which happens too often for me to care about too much). Then Sara hasn't texted me at all. My siblings went out and got McDonalds and they didn't bother asking me if I wanted anything. I guess I'll just have to take action if I want something to happen :P

Being passive aggressive is also not a great way to solve anything or get attention

Generally if you reach out to people they'll respond and give you the attention/display of interest that you want

Also sorry if I'm coming across like Noc said, I really don't want to be "sage high and mighty 20 year old dude" so slap me or something if I am

I guess whenever people try to help me out with something, they just keep slapping me with the truth and harsh tones and really, that doesn't help me. I feel like if people want to help me, they need to be kind and have sympathy.

Herein lies the problem. Sometimes you just have to accept that reality is hard. Sure, people can present the necessary truth in a kinder, more sympathetic manner, but if you're just looking for people to coddle you through a situation instead of helping you rise above it yourself, you aren't going to mature.

Harsh tones and truth are best to learn from. Sympathy only provides emotional comfort and does nothing about your situation.
Both are good; but if you're only looking for sympathy, you're ignoring your problems and there's no reason for people to want to help you.

2 months ago, around the time that I left, I was going through a very very bad time in my life. I lost literally all my friends. I had severe depression. And responses like these from not just you, but from everyone made everything worse. Honestly, I'm surprised I haven't killed myself yet, nobody would care. I left the site to get away from this, I didn't need it. Thankfully, I made a friend who showed SYMPATHY and KINDNESS, while still helping me change the things I've been doing. Because of her, I made it through this rough time and depression. I decided, since my life was going pretty great, I should return to this forum to hopefully a better community than what I left, but no, everything's still aggravating. This forum has brought me nothing but anger, and I'm sad to see that it still does. I know that I do things wrong, you don't need to tell me 100 frickin times. I need to learn to be more mature, I get that, but you need to learn sympathy and kindness. I don't want this anymore, I'm better off without you.

Cash, we're here to support each other. We're a community. The sympathy and kindness is all over the place, even if we tend to exhibit it through sarcasm and jokes at each other's expense. But I think I can speak for many of the others on the forum when I say that the vast majority of your posts are self-centered. There's lots of "I did this!" and "I think this!" and "Notice me!" without much give-back to the rest of us. That's not bad on its own. But then you take offense that nobody noticed. Like we're here just to applaud everything you do. If you're looking for our sympathy and focus and not giving much of your own in return, I'm not surprised you feel like we're not "sympathetic" or "kind."

Yeah, I've realized that as well. Literally everything I say and do is self-centered and I hate it. Every time I think about me being self-centered, I see others being selfish/not caring when they aren't really that way. I have too many problems, and have come off as an annoyance to everyone. I can tell you that this is a problem that I can't fix alone, and it's going to take a while for it be resolved. Because of my personal problems and choices, I'm going to leave.

Being self-centered doesn't have to be a bad thing. I'm thinking about my youtube channel, which the only intent why I did it is because of - Fun sharing my arrangements, and they look better and more presentable that way, and maybe also make some money from it by Google Adsense ad-money. But to get to the point, I don't think that my youtube channel has been a "bad" thing. Many people have watched my videos and really enjoyed them. I've gotten comments saying things like "Thanks, sounds really superb" "Is it you playing, really doesn't sound like playback" and "Can't you arrange x song and maybe songs from y game" and other positive feedback, which makes me feel like what I did was something that people enjoyed and that people liked and not only "me being a big ego spreading my arrangements all over the internet in an attempt to more or less take over the world and have absolute power over it (mwahahaha)". But that it was something that I enjoyed doing and that other people also appreciated, so basically a win-win situation. Hope this story enlightens you a bit. :)

You know, I don't think I've ever seen you do anything to help anyone else here. All I can remember from you is homophobic posts towards PDS and constantly changing the subject to be about you. The world isn't going to cater to your needs and neither are we. Sympathy and kindness are things you earn from people not things you get, try actually building relatioships with people here if that's what you're looking for.

Trying to arrange "An Empty Tome (Arranged version)" from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. And it's just... hard. Argh. I like the song and I want to complete arranging it And in good quality, but it's just tough. Thinking of doing a song in a completely different style but still a good Castlevania song namely "Requiem of the Gods" from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. But I think that song also has some difficulties in it, and I want to focus at one song at a time. But this song... it's hard, reminds me of "Simple Song" from Rise of Nations, another "looks simple at the surface, is complicated when you start arranging it-song". Those songs really are annoying.

I was watching some of the Stories videos from Twisted Metal Black (a (great and funny) game I played as a kid), and I really "liked" them in the sense that it "gave me chills". And I pretty much never feel that way. But it feels so sad, the game being SO Dark and just to be honest "just creepy", and me enjoying (that specifically feels sad). But still not caring much about if people think like that (if they think it's "a bad game") or if it is like that (if it is a bad game).

Here's the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrOPKhFVd5o

Usually I post in the pytotm when life sucks cause I don't deserve to complain about anything, but I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with me.  I usually have trouble describing how I feel and usually that's because I have no overwhelming emotions to most things but right now a good way to describe it is being miserable makes me happy or satisfied.  I don't know why, but I'd rather be sitting in my room with the lights off hating myself than being outside my room watching a movie with my family or something.  I think my greatest fear right now is that nothing is wrong with me and I'm just making excuses.  I googled "being miserable makes me happy" and an article gave a few possible reasons and they kinda sound sure but not really.  There's a really big disconnect between my self-image and how others see me.  Who do you guys think I am?  Ugh, this is starting to sound like a crappy Facebook chain post.  I dunno, just kinda tell me what you think I'm like, maybe a few attributes or qualities (negative and positive) that from what you know of me really describe me.  And be serious too not fake mushy crap that deep down you know you're making up.

I think that you're opinionated but also super chill which is a combination I really envy. It's like your beliefs and values are incredibly strong but you don't feel the need to argue with others about them beyond saying "I disagree." I like that you hold some amount of respect for everyone and that you always say what you mean, which is my favorite trait a human can have.

Since you want the entire truth, I feel like a flaw you have (and I have this problem too, so don't take it as a dig) is that occasionally you can't empathize with others enough to see how their point could be valid. Almost like there's some amount of belief that most people are inherently the same.

I also don't want to diagnose or anything like that but you've always seemed like a depressive person and I was wondering if you've ever sought help or talked to some kind of counselor.

I've had experience with the "being miserable makes me happy" thing; I can distinctly remember times in about the past two years where I noticed that I felt the same way. I'd attribute it to depression, and I think it's normal for that to happen at your age. A lot of people today discount depression as a "legitimate" problem ("go outside and get some fresh air, you're fine" is a commonly-cited piece of advice), but everybody hits a wall late in their teens. A counselor is definitely a good idea if you feel like you're not finding joy in things. I've also heard that getting up and just doing something productive does help with self-esteem a little.

You're a nice person Noc, and a very special person as well. :) you reminds me of a good friend I got in the Smash community, who also is kind of special in the sense that he is kind of strikt sometimes. He hates Captain Falcon and all the "jank" in Smash and want the game to be played optimally and perfect. Also is pretty calm and quiet most of the times. And you also reminds me of a good friend and work colleague, who is also calm but is very careful and precise when it comes to work and stuff (want's to do stuff perfectly). And both are really nice friends, and you seem a bit like them.

I'm not sure if people really think I'm the person I think I am (and I don't even really know or care who I am). Some people probably think I'm the nicest person and is really kind and all. But I'm very aware of that I got a bad temperament, and that I'm often passive aggressive and can get upset easily, but often doesn't let that out because, by experience I've learned that it really makes people in a bad mood and creates a bad atmosphere.

And I think you got a big point in that what you were saying. That just "feeling positive and having fun with friends and family" isn't always what you might feel is the best for you. I remember a guy posting some post on facebook talking about smash and how he talked with some old man on the train about mindset, and in the end concluded that he thought that the ideal mindset was a "neutral one, with small positive hints and thoughts". And I disagreed with that, really, I didn't think that I lost only because of having a "poor mindset" I only thought my mindset was different from his. And I thought that if you don't think bad thoughts like "you suck, you're not good enough, and special" then there will be no drive within you and no emotions left. You'll just be sitting there like "lalala I'm having a nice day, the bird are singing and everybody's happy and lalala", and everything will be just lame and mundane. (Not that you should be angry or sad all the time, but I think you get the point). And I think that negative emotions have a value, because they make us see ourselves as bad and poor and by that encourages us to do or be better.

I also think that some things that makes you feel angry or miserable might make you feel more feelings and maybe let you be "more of yourself". Like me listening to sad music (like Enemy Inside by Dream Theater) or maybe watching the stories of Twisted Metal Black, Idk how's it for you, maybe you like listening to some music that like nobody listens to, or music like "Paint it Black" by Rolling Stones or "Into the Lens" by Yes or something like that. But I think it has some value.

This is a dangerous thing to suggest. More often than not, negative emotions consume a person, not encourage them. If you continually tell yourself you are bad at something or are bad in general, you will believe it, and won't see the value at persevering through something anyway. You can use negative observations as a starting point for self-improvement, but letting them control you will never end positively. Never.

I can agree with you. Guess you could see negative emotions as "a spice". A small dose makes the stew more tasteful, but too much completely ruins it.

y. And also Meastro: Sorry Meastro (I actually didn't read your post accurately) I didn't even meant to make his post only "an excuse to talk about myself", I responded to his post by telling my view on the topic and what I think about his post. And I believe that's how "to be social": 1st person says: "I'm saying xxx and x" 2nd person responds by saying: "I'm saying xx but yyy yyy", both persons may not even care about what both are saying, but both like expressing their opinions and sharing their stories within the framework the conversation is in, and that's the point. It's just that I am the only person here who actually talks about myself, literally nobody on this does that (y, it's actually true when you think about that), and also maybe talks to much (as I feel a need of responding to your responses ::) ) and that's why people are so critical of me. :-\

-You are completely unpredictable
-When you are interested in something, you see to it that it's finished
-You are very brusque
-You seem very mysterious at times

Hope this helps!

I'm getting tired of all the cancerous cringy kinds on the internet these days!!! 

Like what is wrong with people these days. Kids shouldn't even have access to internet, because of obvious reason! They just make cringy disgusting videos that literally NO ONE wants to watch. I'll ALWAYS be pro a law that have age restriction for using the internet!!!

Here's what I watched(It's after these videos you wished that kinds died from cancer rather than old people...) (also it's in Swedish so no one will be able to get anything... but still Justin Bieber #2):

It was when he got "in the drama news" on youtube I subscribed to his channel. Now his channel is lame, and he doesn't even own it entirely, but instead let other people host videos. And his stuff gets repetitive... Otherwise I don't care that much of what he has done. Rather him (a guy with a nice show but having done other bad stuff) rather than a guy like GradeUnderA (Guy with a horrible and annoying voice and makes bad videos... but otherwise, I guess, is a nice guy...).

Yesterday my parents banned me from playing video games until I move out...and I was wondering why they haven't cracked yet.

Well no more League of Legends so I added up the cost of my main account to try and find a fair price to sell it at. Basically I looked through all the skins I had and whatever had a price tag on it I wrote it down on Google Sheets in RP(League currency), then added it all up. Then I converted it to USD and now I'm not sure if I actually want to sell this account

I completely agrees with you! Can't agree more with you! I got a full time job and have pretty much no time to make any music or do any free-time activity. And it kind of sucks cause I really want to do more music-stuff, but I... just simply doesn't have the time. :-\ But on the other side I understand that it's great economically to have a full time job, and also because it gives more work-experience.

I say "Egg & Bacons" as the final word of this discussion.

Btw. You got to love some customers we deal with at work:

1) The customers that doesn't even want their package. Like, wtf!? You ordered something and then later on you're like... "nah forget it I don't need that now/anyways...".
2) The customers that want to have their delivery like after 2 months or so. I take like 2-3 for a normal delivery (from like Australia to Europe) to be delivered, and then some are like "Y I'm going to be on holiday for like a couple of month, so keep my package during the time and then deliver after 2 months or so when I return back home"

Lol I'd be funny to order something, but after that say that your on holiday or something for a ridiculous amount of time like "I'm going to be on holiday for like a year, could you please deliver it next year? Would be great.", and on top of that have like a completely pointless letter be what you wanted to be delivered. ;D Funny prank, lol.

;-; My Washington DC trip ends tomorrow...
I have had so much fun on this trip, and I don't want to have to go back to school next week & just have all this joy sucked out of me. Yesterday was particularly fun, although one thing in particular stuck out to me that I WISH I would've done differently. My group went to this Inauguration Gala last night (it was for high school only, so it wasn't like what's going on tonight), and for once in my life, I was truly confident. I have NEVER danced in front of people (except for the first day of school, but that wasn't so voluntary as this event). And I danced the entire night (after dinner was over, ofc). That wasn't what bugs me so much. It was that, for the first time ever, a girl came up to me and flirted with me. I emphasize first. And in the moment, I had no idea what to do, such I just kinda smiled and held her hand* awkwardly for a second or so, and then she ran off with her friends & I never asked her name, school, anything. And that ticks me off SOOOOOOOO much, how foolish I was. >_<

*What I mean: Her flirting with me was the "Hey can you hold this?" & then you hold out your hand to hold whatever they need to give you, and they hold your hand.

GAHHHH just thinking about it now, despite having occurred YESTERDAY, I'm still extremely aggravated with myself & my foolish actions (or lack thereof).

EDIT: I don't know why I'm even posting this here, because it isn't like you guys have a time machine or something that can take me back to last night to do things a bit better. -_-'

How do I do that, though, without reverting back to my unconfident self that arrived in DC on Monday? The event as a whole really changed me, gave me a dose of confidence that I DESPARATELY needed, and just to forget that specific thing, which contributed most to my confidence gain, wouldn't help all that much, either.

-_- thanks. But in all seriousness, it isn't like I floundered. I just kinda stood there. And before I could react, she ran away. Honestly, I think her running away made me really question what had happened, and that's why I'm here now.

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on January 20, 2017, 07:16:51 PMSee you keep thinking about it, you're wondering what you could have done differently, but you should really not think about it.  Unless you see her again, then worry about it
I know... but I keep thinking "What if this happens with someone else in the near/far future? I want to be able to react on the spot then, or at least have enough sense to chase(?) after her." I'll try to ignore that specific occurrence, but the situation in general is something I need to prepare for should it happen again. At least, I think I do. All this is extremely difficult. :/

When you're spending 1 on 1 time with a girl you just gotta be you.  If you look back on an experience thinking wow I was so dumb or why did I say that ew that's normal.  And tbh it probably wasn't as dumb as you think it was.  Don't worry about it

Post by: Tobbeh99 on January 23, 2017, 01:30:16 PM
A more important topic however. Maybe I should post this in "relationship" topic, but I decided to keep on going with the theme. Am I the only one who believes that you should wait and let love come to you, rather than seeking it? It seems to be like the story of my life, things come to me rather than I, myself, tries to get to them, and especially the things that really matter. I remember when I started with music. My mom's friend's husband was a musician, he had some different instruments, guitar and drums are what I remembered. And I just wanted to play guitar from then. Later on when I grew up I started thinking that if I tried the piano, it'd help my guitar playing, for some reason. So I started playing the piano, and it felt so much easier and more logical, and I really liked it and therefore it became, and is even to this day, my main instrument. And how about my favorite games, Final Fantasy X, just happened to randomly bump into it when I was a child. We got a Ps2 and some games from some friends, and one of those games was FFX. And Wild Arms - my personal favorite game. I just happened to stumble upon some youtube-video called best VGM, and #1 on that list was Wild Arms Town Theme. And I thought it was incredible and really special. So I just looked up a small let's play to see like the first episode of it. And then later when I and my friend was on a retro-game fair, I saw the game, and I thought "why not buy it". So I bought it, it was pretty cheap as I remembered. And even though I hadn't heard much about the game At All, when I played it, it was fantastic throughout the entire game, and it was really something special, and I really think the Wild Arms RPG is special "Hidden Gem RPG".

And to get back to the point. For me life and love seemed to always have come to me, and the only thing I have needed to do was accepting it (and sometimes not even that). And that's what I want my life to become. But even though there's a famous proverb saying "Good things come to those who wait." I have little patience and don't want to wait like years and years for something to happen, in my life. And that's why I feeling so complex at the moment.

And I the only one who prefers waiting for things to come to me rather than actively seeking it?

Post by: Tobbeh99 on January 24, 2017, 05:23:02 PM
I'd say Ghirahim was even worse... but y... Both sucked. In fact all Boss Battles with Ghirahim was bad. The 1st one was bad because you had to like aim with Wii mote (plus) and then he teleported and blah blah. And the last one was... kind of OK, but still same old bullshit and just really tricky. I somehow managed to beat it in "one go", all the 3 forms, and just somehow, somehow, managed to figure out that you're supposed to hit his sword (or whatever the trick to beat the final form was) and had like no life left. And then you fight that "zeus-looking boss" and it was pretty fun but I think I took the "hard way" of fighting him and just went "head on" and I guess used the lighting as well? I don't know.

Imprisoned was also bad... what I call "gaming-cancer". Like the game that Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, but as a boss - just plain bad. He just comes up, and is really annoying, and have no like role in the story other than being annoying. But it was kind of funny in the final battle, how Groose came in and helped you with his cannon, and how you defeated him, and with the Skyward Sword.

Can we talk about the contrast between Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword?

How I personally think that TP is better when it come to depth, story and graphics.

But how Skyward Sword manages to get the charm that is so closely associated with Nintendo. The childlike feeling, the "pure fun-ness" of the game, and the sense that you're doing a bigger adventure, but in a smaller format of a game.

My headphones are Sennheiser HD 280s. They're around $100 depending on where you get them, but these are durable, and the cord is ridiculously long as per Sennheiser (but a coiled option is available, which I took). Also super comfortable, even after several hours (though friends of mine sometimes disagree). Definitely a good investment (albeit they aren't particularly mobile).

I'm just so confused atm!

I bought some new sheet music. Which was really good and fine and all. But one of the sheet music books I bought was really weird.

It's this book:
https://en.schott-music.com/shop/ausgewahlte-klavierwerke-15.html

And I just looked at the famous Hungarian Rhapsody no.2. And the sheet was just... not right! The entire piece was in C-minor! Everyone plays it in C#-minor! It just makes no sense at all, and feel like I tricked. But I think their purpose with the sheet music book was to make some of his works "easier" and having them arranged. But it doesn't say that on the the book or anywhere! It just seems like "Liszt compilation album". So I definitely feel swindled by the sheet music company for buying this!

...edit: Turns out it is an arranged and simplified version of the real original one. That just sucks... next time I'd make sure to only buy "real versions" and make sure they look promising and authentic. It just feels pointless playing simplified versions of famous and classical works (no matter how hard they might be). I value faithfulness and originality when it comes to classical works!

Here's how the simplified version looks:

The sound engineering part I would have done well in, but I did not play any instruments at the time, so the portion which consists of recording your own instrumental performance would have got me. So no sweat, and I've thought also maybe keeping it seperate from school will make it more fun and personal to me. All is well  :D I've been talking to a band member from the college next door to my high school and I might run sound, or help, for his gigs instead!

Heh heh heh... wooooooo... today's college visit was a complete BUST!
There was an event going on at Middle Tennessee State University, and I was wanting to visit a college today (no school). Well, dad got an email about said event, and it was either that or Vanderbilt. Nothing was going on at Vanderbilt, so he insisted on going to MTSU (and who knows why? I don't think even he knows...). So we visited MTSU today. He quickly found out that big groups is not better than one-on-one campus tour. But oh well. We're already there, so may as well look around, right???? We did. For a very short time. Before he got too impatient to think straight, and so he threw a tantrum RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF CAMPUS and stormed off. And now? I'm headed home. Why? Because he can't BELIEVE we would even suggest going to a big event like that. Big events are stupid, unorganized, and why the **** did we not go for a private tour? I dunno, dad, WHY DIDN'T WE GO ON A PRIVATE TOUR?!?! HYPOCRISY MUCH?!?!?!?!?!

Windows 10 is fine with some annoying mandatory features. Whatever that means to you. Linux is great for specific purposes if you know how to use it. This shouldn't be happening. The installer is a GUI that asks you to make a user. But the installer is broken or something.

>:( Lemme just rant a lil bit:
Today has been EXTREMELY mentally taxing. More so than normal. First class of the day, my teacher teaches me a HUGE portion of trig in 3 minutes on one notecard. It was difficult enough trying to keep up, but then, I started trying to understand beta decay for academic team, and I spent a good 2 hours researching how an electron can originate in the nucleus & other such deep questions (none of which I'm having any luck finding anything online for, and none of the science teachers are intelligent enough or specialised enough in physics to answer), and I ended the day with researching fundamental particles (fermions, bosons, leptons, hadrons, etc.). So you could imagine I'm mentally exhausted, and on the verge of having a headache. Then I got in the car. Who was in it? None other than my PRECIOUS little sister, whose claim to fame is the inability to be quiet or sit still for any period of time unless she's watching YouTube (and even that's debatable). And what is she doing? "Singing". Oh right, SHE CANT SING. And then I shut the door and the questions start rolling in from both her and Mom "How was your day? What's that paper on your binders for? Can I read it? Why do you have a flashcard? Do you have any homework? What all did you learn today?" And I kinda lost it. On my sister. Because all those questions were from her (she watches mom & tries to imitate her; id est, be MY mother. SHE CANT BE A PARENT WORTH TWO PINCHES O' STEW (like mother like daughter, amirite?)) And of course, mom gets mad at me for going off on sister, yet she doesn't understand that sister TRIES to annoy me. Or that I'm as exhausted as I am from what I did. Or any other factors that could possibly be in my favor. Instead, I end up getting scolded about how impatient I am and how I need to lighten up and crap about how I'd never make it in the real world, because there's always SOMEONE who will be talking. (Which implies that I'll have a family and/or wife at some point in my life, or I'll be homeless)

I love math, but all my friends don't, so I do have some experience with people who feel like that. You just have to charge through it. I have a friend who is as good at math as I am (maybe even better), but he doesn't enjoy it. He's a whole year behind me mathwise because he didn't do any of his math homework in 8th grade. Basically, I'm trying to say tough through it because you need to do it. There's always summer vacation. (Or is it winter vacation in Australia? I'm not sure. I know that in the mid-southern parts of South America winter is warm weather like North America's summer. Is it the same in Australia? Even if it is, I guess it could still be summer vacation during cold weather. Or is there year-round school?)

I know that in the mid-southern parts of South America winter is warm weather like North America's summer. Is it the same in Australia? Even if it is, I guess it could still be summer vacation during cold weather. Or is there year-round school?)
We have 2 week holidays in Autumn, Winter and Spring, as well as a 6 week holiday in Summer. It makes sense, because it's almost useless to attempt teaching students on 40 degree days.

Uhhh... do you mean that's too cold? Please tell me that's not what you meant. I hate when people think 40-60 degrees is cold. That's typical spring weather where I live. A nice day. The best days are the days in the 70s, though.

*Slaps self in face* I forgot. I usually don't forget stuff like that. Although, if we had been talking about -40 degrees, it wouldn't have mattered. -40 degrees Celsius is the same as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. The metric system is much neater than whatever our system is called. I forget. That's how pointless it is.

Linear algebra is a fantastic subject and calculus III is super useful for anything to do with multidimensional functions (which comes up in anything analytical). You should all take them both.

And actually though, everybody can benefit from a probability/statistics class. The concepts are very applicable to everyday things, even if the calculations themselves aren't.

I've been gone for who knows how long because of complications in my life that've dragged me down. I've been doing mostly good at finishing my monthly videos and reviews, but then this month I've lost most motivation to do things, mainly due to a bad reaction with an anti-anxiety medicine. (Made me hallucinate for the first time ever and it wasn't fun)

I had to get an increased dosage last week which helped a ton at first, but now I'm starting to notice a week in that if I don't take it as soon as I wake up, my early morning floods me with anxiety that really hurts to have (Something that didn't happen before with my old one which let me sleep in and all that. I changed meds due to my paranoia returning.) Afterwards I'm my normal self but part of me feels that something isn't completely right, which can make things a pain at times. I'm also trying my hardest to find new IRL friends who maybe like video games/other interests, but my social behaviors make that near impossible. (Especially in a college where everyone else in my class is my dad's age) I've gotten a few reviews done since then, but I haven't been in the mood to make videos, even though I NEED to make at least one retrospective a month for my patreon supporters, so I'm struggling to get myself to type a script.

Hopefully I can come back here more during my free time, but ATM I feel like I'm in a weird void of uncertainty. I thought it was because of particular world events in January, but then I noticed that last month nothing to worry about happened with said event so I'm not as worried about that as I was before... Now I just worry about life.

I've done some writing for MTG so I know the feeling of "what do I write about"?  Idk what you've already done retrospectives on, but maybe you could do some console retrospectives or something.  If you've got a deadline because of patreon type stuff, it's a lot easier to get it done if you just do bits of it at a time over the month (from my experience)

Words of the young and foolish:
Couldn't you just throw your current life away completely if you feel unhappy enough? Set yourself free; explore unknown lands; leave behind all you've known.
Yeah, that's a bit extreme. But surely change can't hurt too much?



Anyway, I seem to break down because of existential crises every few months, and I can't pull myself to carry on with life due to nihilistic thoughts. Last time, I couldn't go to school for a while, and I had moderate/severe depression, with self harm and suicidal thoughts. I didn't get any medical treatment, because I deemed that useless for helping me.
My question is, if it strikes me again, what can I do to keep going? Does anyone have any advice? Is there any way to break this cycle? (I assume this chat is where I ask help for things like this)

@Lux, I'm with Slow in that professional help and seeking medical care if you need it really is the way to go, because other people have their own lives to worry about too, and can't always be there or be focused on how you're doing. Talking to a psychologist has been really helpful for me to deal with things, and I highly recommend it. Make sure you get one that fits well with your personality, though, and don't be afraid to change if things aren't working.

Eh, it's avoidable, but on that rare occasion that I forget (like today), the next few hours are miserable. It isn't anything suuuper dangerous; back in 2nd grade, when I didn't know this affected me, I would eat the small doughnut things for breakfast every morning, and every day during class near the beginning of the day, I would have massive stomach cramps. Never figured out what they were until I ate something sweet a few years back & the same thing happened. I connected the dots, and yea.

I feel better now, but bleh. It'll help me remember not to eat anything sweet for breakfast anytime soon!

This, definitely. Maybe plot out a simple schedule of chunks and tell your parents the plan. And refuse to let them give you grief about it.

We had to wait outside my school for two hours because of a "suspicious" package. We had to leave our stuff inside and they made us go home without it. My house keys were in there and, even worse, my phone. The teacher I had that period makes us put our phones in a box at the beginning of every class. I had no way of getting in my house or contacting family if no one was home. Luckily someone was home, but the experience was pretty scarring. Not for me, but I had to comfort some people. We also had to wait a half hour for buses because I had the last bus in the line. They let people go back for their stuff later, and I was picked up by Anton and we went together. I'm just a bit exhausted now. All the police from the district, surrounding area, and the general state police were there. The Massachusetts bomb squad was even there. It turned out to be nothing, luckily. It was some name plate for the vice principal that he didn't order. A bit suspicious, but not dangerous. Although, I did hear there was blue liquid oozing out of the box.

Someone thought my 39 year-old aunt was my younger sister. I'm not mad about it (a bit annoyed), but I feel this is the best place to put it. In all fairness, my aunt looks like she's in her early 20's, and I know most people who meet me think I'm older than I am. People who meet me for the first time tend to think I'm 18 or 19 (and this is what they tell me after finding out my actual age). I'm not sure if I should feel old or if my aunt should feel young after this exchange. I mean, the person wasn't only surprised when she found out our ages, she was shocked. She was flabbergasted for a moment. She made up for it by complimenting my fedora, though.

One of my friends is getting on my nerves and I'm honestly on the edge of going off on her. So, me and this girl were friends and hang out with each other around the beginning of this school year and everything was alright. One day, she stopped hanging out with me to hang out with Sara, and from sitting at their table with her, I can see that my friend was pretty much ignored by everyone at the table. I was hoping maybe she would forget about them and just hang out with me since I payed attention to her, but no, she stopped hanging out with me to hang out with them. Eventually, me and Sara became (pretty close) friends, and I got to witness more of this girl being ignored. She stopped hanging out with the group eventually and one day claimed that she didn't feel she belonged. This upset Sara, so she (being the nice person she is) tried to fix it. I don't know exactly what she did, but evidently it fixed the problem. Now, this girl hangs out with the group and enjoys their company, except that she only ever listens and wants to talk to Sara, like all the time. It started to get on my nerves at this point, but I was thinking that I was being irritable, so I put it off, besides, this girl wanted to go to church now and it was all because of Sara, so it's not really a bad thing. That's what my thoughts were, but things just got worse. Sara is no stranger to her friends dragging her around, so she probably doesn't care much about this, but my ex-friend grabs her by the hand and drags her around, ignoring anyone who wants to hang out with Sara. I was having a conversation with Sara, then she was dragged away and the conversation just ended because she couldn't politely resist. Me and Sara usually sit together at lunch, not by my choice, but by hers, then the other girl wants to sit with Sara and for whatever reason always decides to split me and Sara. One day, Sara had to leave early to tour a college she was considering, and she told me where she was going. At lunch, when people asked, I told them and they went on with there lives. But this girl, when I told her, she said "That little b****" simply because Sara didn't tell her she was going to be gone. This is what's making me pissed off, that she thinks that Sara owes all her life and her time to her, and that she is Sara's only friend. I know it's against the law to hit a girl, but I don't care, she needs to be taught a lesson, though I probably wouldn't be so quick to resort to violence. Next time this happens, I'm going to talk her out for being rude, and hopefully she's respectful, unlike some other times.

I'd agree with Shadowkirby and say don't get involved. Like at all. It's Sara's friend and Sara's problem, and getting in the middle of it will just end up hurting your relationship with both of them. You don't know if it's an issue for her, and you acting without her approval could be bad for her and a friendship that she may value.

Post by: cashwarrior1 on April 18, 2017, 04:21:43 AM
I'm not trying to act upon this because it "bothers" Sara, I'm acting upon it because it is affecting me and it bothers me. I'm going to talk to her about it before acting upon it, and if she doesn't want me to (which she probably won't care), then I won't do it. Sara is the kind of person where she's not going to deal with a problem, or a nuisance, unless it is brought up. This isn't really Sara's problem, as she probably doesn't see it as a problem, it's my problem because it's one of my good friends being rude and inconsiderate and I want to tell her that she's not being a very nice person. Sorry if I'm coming across as an aggressive jerk.

Library, you can live without Blurays, how does the broken TV make your computer broken, it's fun to replay games after awhile, and I don't think a TV would record your reactions. Unless, of course, it's one of them new-fangled 4D, printin', food makin' TVs. But seriously, there are so many things you could do with your time. Meet new people, go to a zoo, go for a walk, etc.

Ah. You should consider investing in a laptop when you can afford it. But for now, I'm sorry about your TV. You know, maybe something good will happen to you, now. Bad things happen, but they're counteracted by the good things. The only reason people think mostly bad things happen is because the bad things are more memor able than the good things. Also, many good things that happen to us are taken for granted. For example, having food and shelter, being with family (if it's a good family), or even just finding that one penny on the ground.

@Noc I'm either doing stuff for NSM, watching Youtube, eating, or spending time with family.

I understand where you're coming from but other people don't feel that way. People watch reaction videos to see how other people feel about something they have seen. There are reaction channels that do blatantly steal content but that is not me. To be fair though, reactions would only cover about 20% of my channel's content.

And also tbh reaction videos are no different than let's plays.

Let's plays are also a form of entertainment yes and my beef with them is quite similar in that I'd rather play the game than watch (with some notable exceptions such as hard games) but let's plays have the advantage of being much longer and feeling more intimate or giving you sincerity rather than a reaction video which could easily be forced or exaggerated.  Like me reacting to anything would usually be a straight face with the occasional smile or eyebrow raise
Title: Re: The Rant Thread/My Life Sucks Topic [Don't be pricks]

LP's feel more genuine, because the person is playing a game they enjoy and talk about their experiences with it. Reaction videos are just... well... here is a thing. I reacted to it. Oh wow.

Post by: Trainer Ave on April 18, 2017, 08:40:05 PM
Let's plays are quite equal in the respect that they can be forced or exaggerated. When I watch something (if it's good enough) I will get really invested in it and I am very vocal when watching something. A reaction video from me would be very different. However like I said it would only be about 20% of my channel's content

Reaction videos: here is a video. Let me share my thoughts and feelings with you about things that happen in it

It ultimately depends on what they're reacting to.

If it's just a jump scare or shock site, that's pointless. However, if it's like a movie trailer or rant or something along those lines that they can actually talk about, then it may be worth watching.

I'm saying that when someone complains, it leads a bunch of other people to argue about who's got it worse. Then people get emotional, while each rant started just to complain, not to offend someone else.

That sounds like a great idea. Why don't we take that idea, and apply it here, so that we can change the "You think your life is rough?" purpose to "Well, here's my two cents, and I hope it helps you feel better" purpose. If anyone here wants to argue all the time, they can go create a new topic called "The Argument Thread/Your Life Sucks Topic [Please be pricks]".

I feel like I need to apologize to this community as a whole. I'm not sure exactly why but I feel that it's necessary. I feel like maybe I've put people through things they weren't prepared for and maybe offended some people. I also feel that I might have some psychological issues that have never been diagnosed. I feel like I'm just repeating the same cycle over and over again in an unchanging loop. I try to absorb myself in false realities (fiction in any form) just to escape the harsh would I've been living. I have to wake up every day to face ADHD, a visual impairment, and my past. Perhaps my past is the hardest to deal with, or maybe it's the present I'm not really sure. I was taken from my parents before I could even be self aware. My sisters and I have always been separated for as long as I can remember. I wound up living with my aunt and uncle. My uncle has always been verbally and physically abusive. Even now when he speaks to me he yells. My aunt has been more condescending towards me with nearly everything she's ever said. I feel like the may have left some emotional scars on me. They've tried to control every aspect of my life. I'm rarely able to see my father and sisters. I rarely ever have money to do anything. The money I make from disability checks is quickly sapped away by them. Even now they want to know where i am at all times. I thought that maybe once i became an adult things would cahnge but they didn't. My aunt and uncle still manage to sap every ounce of control i have out of me. I know they dont truly want me around. They never did. It's why they sent me to a school 3 and a half hours away from where I live. They barely did any work with raising me and instead left it up to the school. At least there I had some people who understood me, however few. I feel like they're just afraid to not be parents anymore.
One day I asked the question of why what should have been my family was split up the way it was. 30 years ago my father was accused of raping a young girl. It was a false accusation but that didn't really matter. The girl's parents were rich and they had a grudge against him for some reason that I still don't know. They paid off people in the jury and my father was wrongfully convicted. He spent some time in prison and has been a registered sex offender ever since.

Probably the best time of my life came when I was 11. I met 2 people by the names of Katherine and Tyler. One became my girlfriend and the other my best friend. My fondest memories are the ones I spent with them. Sadly on March 25, 2010 Katherine and I were at her house and an accident happened. Katherine suffered a head injury that ultimately killed her. I, at the age of 12 and being the only witness, had to explain to her family, the doctors, and the police what happened. Tyler was the only one to comfort me. Unfortunately he would also die in a car crash two weeks later. Because my aunt and uncle were heartless I was never able to attend either of their funerals. I broke. I slipped into depression for 4 years. I got to the point where I no longer cared about anyone or anything. I tried many times to commit suicide. I kept asking myself if there was a point in living a life filled with misery. To this day I still don't have an answer for that question.

Every day I try to find something to escape into. I tell myself that maybe there's hope in something but it always feels like a lie. I also know that soceity in general will never take the problems I've faced seriously. I'm a white male after all, the worst kind of people and I should just man up and deal with it. I'm supposed to never show emotion because that is what weak people do isn't it. I don't know I f they're telling the truth but I know I've tried for too long to be strong. I don't know how much more I can do. I've tried to hide everything I feel but it only keeps getting worse.

Maybe I do have some psychological issues or maybe I don't. Either way I'm tired of being miserable and I want to end it. I've tried to kill myself before and I won't do it again. I can't leave my sisters behind. We've all endured hardship and maybe I have it the worst maybe I don't. It doesn't matter. I'm just sick of being miserable and having nowhere to turn.

IANAL but im sure theres something you can do to get yourself out of that situation hey? From what little I know about disability checks theyre written in your name if youre an adult, not your aunt/uncles', so literally i would think you could prevent them from getting them. Transfer it to a new bank account that they cant access, idk. It's your money, not theirs, and so there must be some way to prevent them from literally stealing it. But beyond that, call the welfare office and like any sort of local disability/rehabilitative services group that you can and see if you can get their help with dealing with the situation. Like seriously that's massively fucked up and you should strive to do something. Are your sisters still with you, are they being abused too? If so call CPS as well. Call the police, call who the fuck ever. There are tons and tons and tons of resources available to you on the Internet and I would be remiss if I didn't at least advise you to attempt to take action. Maybe you already have and are thinking "I did, nothing worked, there's nothing I can do" and that is a goddamn defeatist attitude to have. With all the shit that's out there you're bound to find some way to improve the life situation if you so desire.

And consider seeing a psychiatrist if you are able/willing because that may help you deal with some of this situation. You are a legal adult and the money is legally yours. There is going to be some way that you can prevent your aunt and uncle taking from you whatever it is you need to get this done, whether it's by like changing the routing of the money or contacting the police or the welfare services or whoever else. Somewhere there is bound to be someone who can assist with this literal theft of your funds as you are a legal adult and the funds are in your name.

Seek help. I couldn't begin to tell you where but seek it. And don't give up, no matter what happens. I've seen too many people, including myself, fall into the trap of demoralization and despair after failure and it is the least productive thing you could possibly do with yourself and your life. If you want change, you need to seek it, no matter how much you may want to avoid the situation. Nothing was ever accomplished by the strength of hope alone. It is hard and it is going to hurt and it is going to suck but it is the key to triumphing.

You might not take this advice but it is my moral obligation as a fellow human being and NSMer to say what I can to help, regardless of any negative comments I may have made toward you before. No one deserves that kind of life.

Thank you.

Unfortunately with the disability checks, they can only be transferred if I have a bank account which I don't because my aunt is doing everything she can to prevent me from getting an ID
 Even if I could pay for the ID I don't have my birth certificate or social security card. She has it.

My younger sister lives with another aunt and uncle of mine. I can't do anything about her situation. However she already has and she'll be moving out in May. My older sister is already out on her own .

I'd like to seek a psychiatrist but unfortunately my visual impairment leaves me stuck in a place where I'll need special training to drive. Only one person in my state is certified to give this training so that won't happen for a while.

I've been trying to move out and it seems nearly impossible. I need to have a roommate because my check won't be enough to cover everything alone. Unfortunately the best option I have right now won't be open until midfall.

I really do think I need emotional help. I just can't figure out where to get it from.

Then hold her at gunpoint and make her give them to you.
I don't mean that literally but let me repeat: You are an adult.

Okay, fair.

QuoteI've been trying to move out and it seems nearly impossible. I need to have a roommate because my check won't be enough to cover everything alone. Unfortunately the best option I have right now won't be open until midfall.
This is why I recommended calling disability support services, if they exist. That is the kind of thing they specialize in. They should be able to help you find options. If not, hold on until fall and then grab the shit out of that option. For your own sake.

QuoteI really do think I need emotional help. I just can't figure out where to get it from.
Again: Disability support services. There are organizations literally dedicated to helping people in your exact situation. The official social security office may be able to help too.

I can't carry on this discussion any further because I have a habit of getting way too invested in other peoples' shitty situations and it ends up damaging MY health to do so. But I promise you that if you google some keywords you will be able to find support services in your area or state. Take advantage of technology. I can't tell you where specifically to turn, but resources do exist. Look for them.

Pre-ordered a Puyo Puyo Tetris for the Switch on Amazon. The game is stored in the standard Switch game case, which is then stored in another special edition case for the first print.

Opened the package, the outer box was dented and crumpled. Opened that up, and the Switch game case was full of dents and holes.

Naturally, requested a replacement, which arrived today... in equally bad condition.

Even holding the anxiety bit as true, which it very well could be, I get the sense that it's also because he thinks she's trying to get me to leave him for her.

Somehow I knew what it stands for, maybe someone has already used it here

Do you actually know why he doesn't like you interacting with her or are you jumping to conclusions

Big red flag. It's blunt, but if he can't handle you having your own friends and he doesn't have a legitimate reason not to like her, end that. I can't stress this enough.

You seem to be very on top of it, which is good. I recommend just being frank about it with said partner.

(Very serious) example conversation:

PDS: Hey, mang.
Purtnar: Sup, muffinbabe?
PDS: This friend issue thingy is kind of a red flag situation ya get me yeh? Ya don't want ta be a crazy dominato weirdo, do yah?
Purtnar: I guess naht. Fanks for bein' franks, brofish.
PDS: Nah prob, bog. We gud?
Purtnar: We gud.

Question, but introduced through a situation. Those involved:
Me
Victim (designated V)
Informant 1 & 2 (designated I1 & I2, respectively, and when collectively, Info)
Antagonist 1 & 2 (designated A1 & A2, respectively, and when collectively, Ant)

Firstly, Ant have been talking about anyone and everyone for quite a while now, and 100% behind people's backs. I myself have been subject to their indirect verbal abuse for quite a bit, but it doesn't bother me. I just brush it off & keep going on in life. Today, however, I1 told both me and V that A1 has been talking about V, and I2 attested to it. I am aware that Ant are very much hostile creatures, and neither Info have any reason to lie to either me or V. I wouldn't be so ticked off normally, but V moved here at the beginning of this school year, and has done nothing malicious to anyone. That, and V considered A1 to be her best friend. Now, Info and I tried to help V out, saying that A1 is toxic and that they have no dealings with A1. But V refuses to just accept that A1 will keep doing what they're doing, talking about everyone (including V), and V wants to make mends to their "friendship". I would be fine with that, but A1 is so set in their ways that there's no changing them. That, and V has an inferior disposition that would make them seem a pushover for Ant, making things worse despite "making mends". Info and I keep trying to convince V, but they still seem reluctant to simply drop A1.

So the question: what needs to be done?

tbh sometimes you just have to let people go through bad situations so they can learn it themselves. It sucks but it's part of life. You can't impart wisdom by talking. I've learned that the hard way.

Post by: Dudeman on April 28, 2017, 03:43:06 PM
Yeah, I hate to say it, but situations like this really can't be affected from the outside. You've done the best you can by providing V with perspective on the kind of person A1 really is and you've spoken the truth to the best of your knowledge. At this point, you can't do anything but hope they make the right decision. It's unfortunate, but it's all that you can do now.

Caring about others is healthy and strengthens relationships. You cared enough to inform V of A1's intentions, and there's nothing bad about that.

You stop that this instant, Braix. You're making assumptions about things that you can't possibly know. First off, you're not annoying everyone, you've been gone for a few months and we missed you. Second, you fit in right here, don't you? You're a part of the dysfunctional NSM community, you've got a family right here. And third, "the grand scheme of things" is a meaningless phrase used to make yourself feel less important than you are. You are important. You can make a difference in people's lives. If you choose to believe that you aren't going to make a difference, well, you won't. Even when things feel abysmal, you've got to believe that things are going to get better. They will. Give yourself a reason to live.

I hit a really great time for my storage and decided to download a movie. My phone then decides to start auto updating all the apps that are on my SD card and move them to the phone. What the fuck? My movie download should have been done by now but because of all the updates, the download is just now reaching 50%

Things haven't felt so good recently. I would rather not go into detail here, since there's stuff that's not suitable for a forum for all ages. Anyway, I kinda want to get through it without talking to a mental health professional. That'll probably be my undoing, but I don't care. Thoughts just keep on building up and I need to vent them out, either indirectly or directly.

It sounds like I'm asking for attention or something here, but I didn't really mean it to sound that way. I didn't mean for this post to become a mini-ramble, but I just wanted to release some emotion somehow. Oh, well. I just thought, "Fuck it, I'm just gonna post something about how I've been feeling recently", but even that's become a rather large struggle...

That was probably the tamest ramble I've ever seen. Don't worry about sounding like you're asking for attention; most of the subject matter that this thread brings up inherently starts out like that. If you really think your mental health is at stake, then seeing a professional should definitely be in your plans, but I can understand wanting to avoid that. It can feel like a last resort. Don't be afraid to ask us for help.

so i'm freaking out, finals edition. I've got a C average in my chem class rn so the final (which is on Friday) is soo important. I have to get at least a B  (maybe slide by with a B-) or I won't be able to apply for my major next semester, and would most likely lose my 20k scholarship I'm basically living off of. heavy shit!!

I also just got back my chem lab final grades (which is basically the same thing but had a written part and a practical) and I got 100!! on the practical!! an 100 on a lab final exam??? holy shit. but then the actual written portion, the one similar to the all-important test I'm taking on Friday, I got a 67 on. huh.

And considering I studied super hard for every chem test this semester to end with a C and for the lab final I put in well over 15 hours only to get back that very confusing mix of grades I have a very mixed and amplified series of emotions going on rn hhhhh

Stressing isn't going to help. It'll just make things worse. Other than that, there's really only one thing I can tell you since I'm not very familiar with college. It has been scientifically proven that believing you can do something actually improves your chances of being abe to do it. So my advice is, try your best not to stress about it and believe that you can get that B! Not even, believe you can get an A! Believe you can get an A+! And study. Study as if you literally have nothing else to do.

>_< gotta rant now

So the Switch is the first console that's actually been "shared" between my sister and I. Before this, my sister never really had an interest in video gaming & as such, my parents didn't really enforce a "sharing rule." Now, the rules I'm fine with: 30-45 mins of gameplay, then the other sibling can play if they want for the same time period. It makes sense. But lately, things haven't been that way. Now, my sister plays the Switch 25/7, or at least used to when I was tied up with hardcore preparing for AP stuff; I was simply too busy, so her 30-45 mins were always extended because I was in my room/not going to concern myself with video games. Well, now that AP prep is (basically) done with, I've been playing more video games. Rather, trying to. But any time I try to play BotW, my sister immediately goes to dad and asks if she can play because "she never got the chance, and I have been playing for a long time now." And what does dad do? "Son, finish what you're doing and let your sister get some playing time." And I'll explain to him that I had just turned the system on, and he'll say "Okay? You can play again when her 30-45 mins are up." (Which never happens; sister insists upon getting the full 45 minutes to the second, and by the time my time should come around, parents have me doing other stuff.) Now, not sure if this plays a factor, but dad doesn't like when I play video games, and as such has resolved that BotW is the most dull & boring game out there. The reason? Because I'm not hurling myself at every possible enemy that exists in-game and I'm not dressing in camouflage and hunting every other living thing in the game that I can possibly get food from (Southern hunter mindset no doubt plays in to that). I don't do those because I recognise my limits and I'm trying to be conservative with my arrows (I've got less than 20 at the moment). I'm wondering if bias is playing a factor here. :/

Idk, take from it what you will, but I am being shorthanded here and it ticks me offffffff.

Everything is going wrong.  I skip work cause I'm sick (and I actually ended up throwing up today) and my mom takes my laptop away because "if you're too sick to go to work you're too sick to play video games".  Then I died day 1 in a twg on llf where I was finally a wolf.  Now I've been modkilled on ffr because it's a mystery game and I'm clueless.  Feel so unlucky right now.

So my mood has taken another serious hit.
I kinda feel bad for playing with someone's heart because I knew a girl liked me but I didn't really like her back, so something possessed me to say something like "oh yes, you're the best possible friend" and I feel like an asshole for saying that now. And I've fucked up on a couple of recent tests and exams so yup things are going downhill. Actually, it's not even downhill, it's just straight down. There's just like a negative aura around me, and when people say stuff like "what's wrong, you're not normally like this" my first instinct is to reply "no shit I'm not normally like this" instead of talking things over with them, so I just lie and say "no, everything's fine". I don't even know what I'm doing, to be honest. My close friends really want me to see someone about it but I refuse to. Is it some sort of "pride"? I don't know. I think it's because I just don't trust random strangers, even if they are a professional.

On the other hand, the stuff that isn't appropriate for this forum has gotten better, so that's good at least.

Post by: Altissimo on May 12, 2017, 07:43:57 PM
that sounds a bit like depression and there's nothing wrong or un-pride-ful about seeing a professional about it!! I mean you wouldn't let "pride" keep you from going to a regular doctor if your leg was broken, would you? That'd be silly. It's the same with things that affect your mind. You need medicine for those too, it's not easy (if possible) to just stave them off out of a sense of will. Seeing a professional and getting medicated did more for me when I was depressed than anything else could have.

I know you said you don't trust random strangers (But would you trust a physical doctor to cure your broken leg??) so this advice may be moot anyway but it hurts me to see when people try to say pride or whatever is a reason to not see a professional about brain-issues because that doesn't help the stigma against problems with mental health and it is just harmful in the long run.

I hope you can figure out what to do about it though, whether it's seeing a professional or just figuring out how to get yourself out of the funk, because nobody deserves that :(

To be honest, the only thing I'm positive about right now is that I'm depressed, and I'm not even that positive about that.

Again, I've gotta thank you guys for your support, but... Even though I've been talking to the friends I trust about it, it's not doing me any good, because right after they make me slightly happy, my mood just plummets again. But the thing about the doctors, I really don't care about my body, but I do care about not feeling like shit. My weight's been fluctuating a lot recently so that points at something not-so-good, but I can't be arsed to do anything about it. I guess there's also some apathy here, where I know I'm not feeling well, but I don't feel like doing anything to stop it. And then when I have to unload my problems here, I just feel shitty about it, I don't want people to think that I'm weak or that I'm looking for attention. Medication could help, if I ever see a doctor, but I'll have to see if there's gonna be any side effects with the ones I have to already take.

Anyway, I'm gonna take another nap. I've been having a lot of those recently.

Yeah that's kind of. Like the whole deal with depression. You just can't bring yourself to do anything. But it doesn't get better if you don't deal with it so even though you "don't feel like" doing anything to stop it my advice is still going to be to muster up whatever willpower you have and forcing yourself to make a change.

If not, tell your friends to. I have heard a story about someone who was so depressed that his friends forcibly dragged him out of bed and put him in a car and drove him to the ER and told them that he was going to kill himself. That was the actual intervention that this person needed in order to overcome his own apathy and get anything done.

I don't want to see you (or anyone else) in that place. Please consider finding the willpower to make a change for yourself.

It's extremely hard for me... they are some of my closest friends, and I know it's really not gonna matter because most people go through this, but I'm just having a really hard time right now; they took me in as one of their own right from the start, and I've got enough memories that I could write a series on them...

*disclaimer: this may not work for you*
so when I was depressed I skipped school almost every day and ended up W most of my classes though I did flunk one I didn't think I was going to.  But basically when I said I was driving to school I would drive to Monticello instead and just spend the day chillin, sitting at a park.  My sleep patterns were all out of whack (and I had to wake up at 5 AM every morning for something mormons do called "seminary") so basically I went days at a time without getting any sleep drinking mountain dew from subway (probably how I got addicted to it) to sleeping 14 hours a day depending on how I felt.  And I was still depressed when I moved out here to utah, I think.  But what I think had the most impact on me was 1) being outside 2) spending money and 3) watching LEGO Movie nonstop.  I was depressed, but the time I spent alone just reflecting or being calm was much more enjoyable than anything else I could do.  I remember being certain my friends actually hated me and didn't want to be around me, so I didn't bother trying to hang out with them.  In hindsight, I regret not forcing myself to do anything.
Voltaire's Candide is a marvelous work that you might enjoy.  Once you read it analyzing it might help you reflect on yourself.
Climb a tree and close your eyes.
Take melatonin if you're not tired and force yourself to stick to a sleep schedule.  I did this in Utah after I moved and melatonin was great helping me be asleep by 10 PM.
There's a lot about depression that you can't fix by yourself, but it's your own mind and you have a lot more control over it than you think

hey guys since i'm new to the community i guess ill share apart of my personal life.. i feel dark energy flowing through my veins everytime my parents ask what's i can tell they never mean it. it's so hard all my life i've felt alone, apart form love. my only companion is my best friend, my inner demons they talk to me at night and tell me to do bad things like not do my chores or not do my school work. there my only REAL friends everyone else is just a lie. sometimes me and my demons go on walks, particularly at night because that's when we feel safe away from the light. my parents have asked me about the voices in my head before, but they'll never understand i don't even think they REALLY care to know who/what i am. they ask just to feel like they're good parents, but me and my demons know that they're just lying. my brother is my parents favorite simply because he was the first born. they spoil him with stuff all the time, but never me. they think im emo but i'm not. they just don't understand that my dark sense of fashion is just the way i like to dress. every morning i wake up for school, my demons are always there to help me through the tough start (unlike my family) i feel like they're the only things that i can love but not with REAL love a dark kind of love. like the kind of love that's not compassionate love but dark love (if you understand what i mean) once I believe I meet the devil himself when i decided to turn to drugs... i started abusing my prescriptions. they say that you cant get a high from Tylenol, but i can confirm to you that you for sure can. my parents found out about my drug abuse but THEY DIDN'T EVEN CARE. i knew they wouldn't, they don't ever care. they simply told me that you can't die from drinking too much of that and that it's nothing too serious like OKAY, WHAT IF I STARTED DOING SOMETHING MORE DARMFUL MOM? what if i turned to ibuprofen huh? I don't know what to do guys... i need a new family, and i think it's NSM that i'll find it you guys seem really cool and i can't wait to get to know all of you. i feel like i belong here. this is where i'm meant to be :)

Why don't you refer to your collective consciousness as "we"?  It seems you still refer to yourself as a singular person

dark love as in like "the love of the dark" like not "love" as in the love you feel for your partner or to someone/something that's done good for you but like a genuine love for dark energy (but the love is dark too) it's like this love = light and dark love = dark light... or just the absence of light but still with the feeling of appreciation i guess i can love but love in a bad way (not of the light)

Yea, I feel completely normal. I'll have to get an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound), though, so doctors can see what's actually happening & how severe the murmur actually is. I'm not too worried about it, though, because it took a cardiologist to actually detect it, and he said he had a great difficulty hearing it because it was so quiet. Even with the murmur, he still cleared me to run cross country, so there's that XD

Scrounge together all evidence possible that shows the truth. Present said evidence in a mature and orderly manner. Make her present evidence that supports her story, which shouldn't exist. Of course, if your parents aren't the kind to wait for evidence before passing judgment, this will be difficult.

Because Nintendo is for kids. At least, that's the image being perpetuated. Even though they make solid games, post-pubescent kids don't want to be caught dead playing kiddy games when they could be playing the next shooter or competitive MOBA.

I've got a dilemma: I don't know what to get.

I've wanted a Switch ever since they came out, but my local Wal-Mart doesn't carry them. I'm going to have to make at least $400 to get one.

Problem: The SNES Classic Edition was just announced a few weeks ago, and they will only produce them for a few months! There's a bunch of games I've never played that I want to play, like Super Metroid, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Earthbound, and The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past.

Bigger problem: I've never really owned a Metroid game before, but I'm a sucker for remakes, and this Metroid II: Return of Samus remake looks brilliant. It looks fun, too, which is weird, because I've never been a big Metroid fan.

I mean, just look at this! There's even a Metroid II download code!

[close]

Problem: this marvelous collection is exclusive to Europe, and I have no idea why. Still, it would be great to have it, but would I have to wait until a more expensive bundle appeared on e-Bay?

What should I do? My parents just set up a debit card account for me the other day, but even though there's already some money saved up on it, I'm scared to use some of it, in fear of what they would think.

I have to put up with the same thing. Just ignore them. People who say things like that are usually insecure about themselves, so they make other people feel worse about themselves so that they feel better about their own insecurities.

If you fixate on this too much, it won't do you any good. Some self-reflection is a good idea, but don't let the opinions of others be your only source of criticism. Take some time to evaluate yourself and see if there are any areas where you think you could improve.

Ask yourself if you'd be annoyed if someone else did the things you do

If you know you're annoying then own up to it. Next time someone says "you're pretty annoying" just laugh it off

Quote from: AmpharosAndy on July 20, 2017, 07:35:13 AMSaying things like this will make everyone start to hate you. Nothing is more repulsive than self-pity.
I agree with Andy as well, self-pity is the worst. It's like when someone says "I'm so fat" or "I'm so extra", it's like a plea for attention: "look at me and my flaws!"

You could also consider that some people are just assholes. I don't know about everyone else but if I find someone annoying I wouldn't say it to their face, because you don't know what their situation is and how it can affect their self-esteem (e.g. how you're feeling right now)

I was always called "annoying" in high school. It sucks but sometimes people say things like that to feel better about themselves. As long as you don't let it get to you and you know how to stay light-hearted in the midst of their comments, they'll eventually knock it off.

I agree with what Noc has to say here, but nonetheless, talking is not a bad thing. Don't misinterpret this and stop talking altogether; you may come off as antisocial. Talk when people talk to you, but don't act like you don't want to. There's a happy medium, and through practice you should be able to find the right amount of judgement.

that is perfect advice!

If you have to, just talk when someone wants to talk to you and carry on with your job, and in a convo just answer their questions and get on with it. Be kind and friendly though! If you're a nice person and generally cheerful about things they may come around. I'm sure you're a good person and I certainly don't think everyone thinks you're annoying. Don't let them get you down and just try to be happy with yourself, that's the most important part. You've got family and you've got us, so just keep on and improve yourself in ways that make >you< feel better.

This sounds like a much more extensive test than I went through. Instant fail on hitting the curb? Really? Who cares if you scratch your hubcaps while parking?

I literally just drove a route with a guy. There was no parking test or "how do you turn this on." I didn't even really know there was a score, but it makes sense that they have to quantify it.

If your fingers feel fat or swollen, it probably means dehydration. It's not really the sun, but being outside and exercising can contribute to dehydration.

Spoiler
BOY am I salty right about now >:( >:( >:(
I hate to say this online and such, but it's gotten to this point.
So coming back from GSP, there was a noticeable shift, mostly in the physical aspect, of my life (in this context). At GSP, I had to walk everywhere, and the distance from the dining hall to the residence halls is .5 miles. Being as such, I got a LOT of physical activity in. I also drank water for breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner, and most nights I would down a water bottle for no reason. Back here, I don't walk places BECAUSE I LIVE IN THE FLIPPING MIDDLE OF NOWHERE & I don't drink a ton of water. Also to note, my fiber intake is relatively low. If you can't imagine where I'm going with this, I am currently suffering from constipation. So, what do you think I should do? Get a stool softener? That's brilliant! Get a laxative? Boy, you should go reinvent the wheel, too, Einstein. Both seem like great (and logical) ideas for someone suffering my fate, but when I expressed this to my mother, who is well aware that I'm not in the best of shape right about now (I can't sit up straight & im pretty grumpy, as you may pick up from this rant), she had her OWN ideas. Such ideas as "Drink more water. You need to eat fruit, and for breakfast tomorrow, eat oatmeal. Also, eat lotsa yogurt." LADY, IF MY INTESTINES ARE FULL OF CRAP I DONT WANT TO EAT ANYTHING, THAT'LL MAKE THINGS WORSE MORE THAN HELP. Also, when I called to ask her earlier today to pick up some laxative or SOMEthing, she went on this rant about how my diet sucks, her diet sucks, we have a bad family history with digestive habits (she's not very direct, is she?), and how she's going to start taking probiotics every morning because her diet stinks & maybe I should try it too. I tried to ask again, and she in essence said the same thing🙄. So when she got home, no laxative, no probiotic (tfw???), no nothing. And I asked yet again for SOMEthing, and she said that laxatives would be too powerful, so she'll pick up stool softeners AFTER SHE GETS BACK FROM WORK AT 2 IN THE FLIPPING AFTERNOON. I would drive to the store and get them myself, but I've never driven by myself, and I'm not about to go on my first drive in this condition.
UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SOMETIMES I DONT GET HER!!!!!!! Take notes: this is NOT how to help your kids through an illness or other condition!!!!! >:((((((

Reading the news and following up on what's going on in the world, I've really started to get pissed off on North Korea. For a year ago, I kind of thought about the shaky world situation and realized that there were 2 main threats that I was particularly worried about. The first was ISIS in Syria/Iraq and the second was North Korea (or the increased tensions between USA and North Korea). I viewed the ISIS threat as higher, as they have inflicted a lot of damage in Europe, and that that was their goal, they tried to go further into Syria, and then to Turkey and so on. So living in Sweden, I viewed that as more dangerous, as North Korea is on the other sida of the planet, almost. And I think the situation in Syria/Iraq has improved in terms of defeating Isis, they lose more ground each day that passes, and therefore they become less of a threat to Europe and maybe also the rest of the world.

But the problem with North Korea still remains. I thought that after some statement from Kim Jong-Un that he "he backed away" from some plan or military exercise he had planned. So I thought that that might be a sign of calming down the tensions that has arose. But nope, I was wrong, next few days he fires a missile over Japan... And I think there are few people at this point that aren't tired of his horrible behavior! He's tested missile after missile, and all to troll and provoke all other nations, because they can't do much, sanctions doesn't stop him, and you can't take him out military because he's sitting there like "I got nukes, hehehe. Don't you dare threaten me, hehehe.". He's basically the scumbag on Earth at this point. Like literally no other country goes around provoking other countries with missile tests all day long, his country is the only one. And I get that you can look at the bigger picture that there's some "new cold war" between US and allies (South Korea and Japan) and on the other side Russia, China and North Korea. But when it comes down to the point, North Korea, or in reality Kim Jong-Un, is the one to blame. He's the one playing with fire, while all other nations are trying to solve the tensions. Just pisses me of how the world has gotten more tense and less safe nowadays...

I don't think the problems is their military, but their nukes. Yes, they would obviously lose a war. But the thing is that they got nukes, and their leader is a complete madman. All other nations that have nukes, at least got a sophisticated leader, whether democracy or dictatorship. But North Korea doesn't. And just 1 nuke alone can cause seriously devastating damage, and that's the issue.

Same friend as before says: in order for a nuke to cause radiation or anything it has to go through a complex nuclear reaction and I guess you can like shoot nukes down before the reaction happens?
Basically, north Korea is not much of a threat but we can't start anything because then we'll be at war with China and allies as well

When a nuke explodes the reactions happens near instantly. However, it should be possible to shoot the missile in its fly to make the nuke drop into the sea where it would cause less damage

@NK situation: They're a gnat, more or less. I would think that Kim (who, it's worth mentioning, was educated in the West and has at least a vague idea of Western culture and probably knows about our military) recognizes this, and, for as much as he postures, knows that if he starts a war, he'll get destroyed. The minute Pyongyang sends a missile over/at Guam (or Japan, or anywhere else), our entire nuclear arsenal will respond accordingly.

ISIS, as despicable as they are, isn't a threat if we don't get involved. Let the mid east deal with their own issues (no sides are clean; the Syrian "rebels" we arm are mostly Jihadists to begin with).

As for #2 most likely global nuke conflict.. India/Pakistan?

So I'm a nursing major at my college and was planning on minoring in music. I didn't think I'd need to take theory my first semester since I was planning on testing out of the first two semester. Find out last night that, apperantly, testing out of theory classes (even first semester) is practically unheard of and it's unlikely the music department would even let me try a I had to get an override to add theory I to my schedule today. I really wanted to take Form and Analysis and Counterpoint which require theory IV as a prerequisite but now that I have to start at theory I there pretty much no way I'll have room in my schedule to take all the theory courses from the beginning.

so here I am learning about major and minor scales
the instructor has to make sure it wasn't too difficult for me since I added the class late
>:c

^okay first of all that's not the issue but okay. @FA I guess that does have something to do with it. I'd still try if I were you but worst case scenario you're stuck in theory I until next semester. As soon as class registration begins for the next term I would recommend jumping on this early. Use your scores/grades that you will have earned in this class as proof that you are beyond it.

Testing out of theory classes is anything but unheard of, except maybe in really small colleges. That's why you have multiple levels of theory; everyone's at a different level of theory when they enter. That's part of the point of taking AP Music theory in high school, so that you can be put in a level that you belong in, and not have to spend 6 weeks learning nothing.

Is it just me or has there been more negative news in the media last year or so? Maybe it's all the apocalyptic-esque stuff like WW3, climate catastrophe, other catastrophic events, and etc. But also just smaller things, like more violence, terroristattacks and other tragedies. Whenever I look at the news there always seems to be some really bad news there. OR it could just be me, caring more for those stuff than before. But idk. it kind of disturbs me.

I think it depends.  Local news is usually small feel good type stories and national or state news covers the "bad" stuff.  It's mostly because when things go right there's not a story to cover "man drives to work safely" isn't getting any viewership.

Man my life just seem to suck right now. And I don't know even why. It seems as if everybody really knows what they want to do in life, what to study and what to be. My brother is studying to become some sort of engineer, and my cousin wants to work with railways (railway engineer, idk.). But I have no clue. It seems hard continuing with music, even though it seems like the most obvious path. And if not that, then idk. And my job I work at sucks (it was fun at the beginning, but now it's pretty lame). And all my colleagues are really boring/lame or somewhat annoying, which obviously makes it worse. And 2 good friends I had there quit, so that sucks. Also just feeling like I have so low energy now, like there's no point in doing anything. Before I used to have some drive, but now I feel so apathetic to everything. Before I used to love to play video games, but now it's like "meh, have nothing better to do...", and music seems less fun or important as I don't know if I want to continue that way as a job. And that used to be my big intressets, but now it's really just "meh, can do it if I want to, but.. who cares...". And also hate how much it seems as society has changed lately, and it's going the wrong direction for sure... I went to a psychotherapist, but it didn't seem to help much. All she seem to do was give me some scheme to fill in, in order to improve my sleep-schedule, and also tried to push me to study music and join a choir, which I may or may not do. And also talked about that I may have some sort of autism (something I've thought I had before). And I makes me feel even more pitiful being a 22 adult. As people expect me to be all grown up and make good decisions, take care of myself etc. But honestly I feel completely helpless. Also used to be kind of shy before, and that seem to just have worsen, just seem way more nervous and plain out sociophobic now... It just seems like my life is falling apart... Also used to have some friends back in school and when I played smash, but now I'm literally alone. Like my whole life just sucks. And y, obviously my brother, my cousin and all other people i know got a girlfriend, except me... y always last with everything, job and other things... always... Everything just seems to go against me...

Was a bit hyped on searching a new job. But then I, when looking at some articles, I saw and remembered how stupid they are. They say like "We're searching for the most superb employee, who always put the customer first, and always delivers the best service, who radiates positive energy and also loves working at high tempo and with physical job." Like it's so stupid, I'm just thinking "I'm just some average dude looking for a decent job". It's like they think you're some superman guy or something. How about just writing "we search for a new employee, preferably with x y and z attributes", would be more realistic. Like who does those articles attract. I don't think anyone wants to search for those jobs then. And it's also for the most average store, it's not like you're searching for some special epic job, it's just for a fucking grocery store...

To be fair, Tobbeh has a point in that so many companies nowadays expect way too much out of their (potential) employees for the most mediocre of jobs. It's often used as a tactic to undersell the employee's worth, and thus use that as justification for paying them less/treating them worse (basically, "If you don't match our unreasonable expectations, who are you expecting us to be reasonable with you?").

Y I saw that one, actually ;D. They just make the title fancier to make you feel more entitled. It's like the job I got atm, it's called "operations agent", it's just a supply/warehouse worker (or whatever you call someone working with transport/packages).

No. gamefreak really does need to actually make a good Pokemon game for once. Since gen iv all they've been doing is shoving gimmicks into what they made 10 years ago.
And yes this IS a problem with the game as my save file was perfectly fine. Multiple people have had this problem and there is NO solution other than to start completely over from scratch. Don't tell me to town down when I just lost a save file which is worth double the price of the original game.

Quote from: BoywithoutaFairy on November 07, 2017, 03:04:27 PMI'm so fucking pissed right now. My save file on my cute charm copy of Pokemon HeartGold was just erased because of "corrupted data". BULL FUCKING SHIT. That just cost me over 300 hours, and over 200 shinies.

I'd probably be angry here, too.

Quote from: BoywithoutaFairy on November 07, 2017, 03:04:27 PMI'm blaming gamefreak for their shitty programming. There was absolutely nothing wrong with my save file. I hope gamefreak goes bankrupt.

This, however... is where I would I agree with Dudeman to tone down a little. Believe me, I spent hundreds of hours on Mario Kart Wii in elementary and middle school, and my license has have to been re-filled up with gold trophies multiple times.

The reason you got a message telling you that your save got corrupted is because they were responsible about their programming. Write operations fail sometimes. Storage corrupts. It's just a fact of using a computer.

So this #metoo thing seems to be everywhere in the news. And you hear daily reports of kinds of crazy shit, from all places of society, that you don't think happened and you don't even want to know happened. But a big issue that people don't talk about is the government, aka "The feminist goverment" (yes the Swedish government brag about being the "worlds first feminist government"). Like I don't know how many "feminist/equality" project they have (they even have "feminist snow-shoveling", yes it's not a joke!), and yet you hear about all sort of crazy shit now! It really makes you have even lower trust in the government and society, like you didn't already have really low trust in them from the start.

And I know you guys are going to answer "but the government can fix all problems/doesn't have all the power. It's everyone's responsibility to ensure that people treat women with respect". And while it is true, I think it's pretty certain that the government do have the most power and influence in society. And it's really annoying when they put so much effort and energy into all these feminist/equality programs and projects and then they literally fail. The government sows but not reaps. ...

Get your head out of a fucking gutter, Tobbeh. Government programs can't stop people from sexually harassing other people; it's never going to happen. That is squarely on the shoulders of the people. You, blaming the government for a bunch of women across the world banding together and bringing to light the commonality of sexual harassment, are exactly the problem.

Have been to some psychologists lately, throughout the months. It kind of feels good but also bad. It feels a bit annoying because it feels so silent and boring and almost like you're some kind of study-object. But it also feels good to get some help. And the big thing why I'm going there is because I think that I might have some sort of autism and it would be good to get it figured out and get the facts on the table. Before I was kind of almost ashamed or embarrassed about it, because I just want to be an averege, normal person, like everybody else. But now it's like: meh, better get the facts right and say how it is. The big problem however is that it apparently takes 8 months now (I've been placed in a line for some final test) to see if I have that and maybe get a diagnos. Which is kind of annoying as I have to patiently wait for it (I might even have forgotten about it in that time, but they do remind you, but still, lol). So y, after having a lot of talk and taking a lot of tests, ...it's just to wait... a long time. If I get a diagnosis it could help me as I can get more assistance in various fields like when searching for a job, or when studying, which could be really helpful. But sadly, that is a process on it's own (at least the searching for job thing).. so it doesn't seem that easy to get.

However it's nice to be done with all that stuff and only having like 1 more test thing to do, because I'm getting tired of all of this. And it would be nice to know as I think it could help me if I get everything clear.

tl:dr
I finished (probably) arranging Requiem for the Gods from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Which was insanly hard to arrange because of hard hard it was to transcribe. With blurry voices, and lots of stuff in the background, organs (hard to hear), notes you don't even know if they should be in or are just effects or hard to hear if they're even there, and a lot of details everywhere, and other stuff. Hardest song I've arranged by far (hardest to arrange).
What's the hardest song you've arranged (hardest to transcribe/arrange)?



Man just finished arranging Requiem for the Gods from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Or more so "actually finished" it rather than before (like a week or so ago), when I thought I was done with it but... not really was. And omg! That song was fucking crazy. I remember starting with it like a year or 2 ago I think, and was thinking "hmm sounds like a pretty cool song, might sound good on piano. And then started arranging it. And then started thinking "hmmm it's really really hard to actually hear what's going on here", and then later at the organ part ":o wtf! cluster here and there. What are those chords!?" .... And then later put it aside (sort of half gave up maybe), thinking that I might arrange it if I feel like it or not. As it seemed so hard to arrange. And I recently took it up during Christmas vacation, and thought I actually made it. And that I made it pretty well. But then I later looked deeper and omg, lol it was just crazy, so hard to hear. I got some help from a midi file, but then later, I think some of the notes were wrong in that file (small errors) so... y.... But to the point. I took it up now and started arranging it and omg, how hard it was. It has everything that is hard to transcribe. Voices and choirs, and organs. And then the voices are so blurry and with vibrato and other effects. And some notes you wonder if they are even supposed to be there or are just some effect. And just a lot of the voices in the background (so y, hard to hear). And a lot of details, like everywhere, lol. So y, insanely hard song. Difficulty level: beyond impossible! Might also be hard as I wanted it to sound well on piano (which was hard), so had to check some things. And it might also be that I've been a bit stressy, with having started school and just wanting to finish this (at the same time). But still, crazy hard song. Hardest song I've ever arranged by far. I was so hard that even with all my tools (equalized, tune up octave song, slow down etc.) I still had a really really hard time hearing it. But y, now it's pretty much done, I think lol.

Wooooo more rebooting

I got an email today around 11am saying I had to complete some sort of information security training to remain in line with university policy. Cool, great, added to my to-do list for a weekend task or something, because I already had a lot going on today. I checked my email a bit ago (which is very unlike me to do that after 5pm) and I'd gotten one at like 6pm saying that I was now in violation of university policy because the training was due today.

The email I'd gotten at 11am was the first I'd heard of this refresher course in a year. There was no mention of it being due TODAY.

Needless to say, I had to throw aside my nightly chores to get this done, which adds even more to my already-packed schedule tomorrow. And it didn't even matter bc I'm still in violation of university policy because oops, I guess it's on me for not setting a reminder on my phone to go off once a year to complete this waste of time "training" anyway. Like, excuse me? Hello? Did anyone in :sparkles:Information Security Operations:sparkles: think this through?


Additionally I am very romantically frustrated at the moment, but that's another story for another time. It's just all coming together in the worst possible way in my life But this little incident the university is trying to pin on me for being irresponsible is the straw that broke the camel's back today. Good night.


EDIT: If I find another typo on this forum from my posts, particularly my phone autocorrecting "woooo" to Wooton, I'm going to throw my phone.

Bought some sheet music yesterday. I find it sooooo annoying when you got a bunch of different versions of the same piece. I bought Bach french suites, for what I found to be a quite good price, actually I only wanted to play the menuet in the 3rd suite (which is the tetris theme C), but figured I could buy that album since it was a pretty good price for all the suites. But then, I think when I watched it on youtube, I felt like the video I watched had a different version than mine. Although I though since it said "urtext" and also had a lot of baroque ornaments, mine got to be the "right" version. But I started looking into it, and investigated a lot. And after a while I come to the conclusion that there are multiple versions of that piece. One "earlier" version and then later "revised" or "embellished" versions. ... ... ... And I had apparently bought the embellished version. To be honest, I must have been quite blind as it actually says on the front cover "embellished version", but apparently I didn't notice that. I guess I only looked at the "urtext" one and thought it was the original manucripts.

So annoying when they label the sheet music "urtext" which makes you think it's the original sheet music, but then is a different version. It was not the first time either this happened. Earlier I bought a book with various Liszt pieces, which I later found out that the Hungarian Rapsody no.2 was some sort of simplified version, and even in a different key - C-minor. .... annoying.

This is pretty long, if you don't care don't read it, I'm not making a tldr.

I really started getting a really annoyed by I guess what you could call like social demands as you become an adult, aka. getting a job and house. I guess that is mostly because of my parents keep reminding me that "Tobbe you're grown up know you need to take care of yourself blablablabla....". And lately the more I've thought about it the more I just noticed how everything just seems to circulate towards money. That is basically what you need when grow up. And honestly, I don't find that much of problem, before I used to very left-biased and just against everything that has to do with money because "capitalism and money bad, left good". The problem I've observed lately is that money is soooooo tedious to get, and when you get it, you often get too little of it/not enough. Like I really like things I can solve on my own like for example if I can't play a piano piece I just practice and eventually learn, and other stuff I basically do the same formula - put enough effort to it and eventually I make it. But with gaining money/having an income you feel more like you're dependant on outside forces outside your control with that. Which makes you feel very powerless, and a bit failed in that aspect. And that you have to basically adapt and be like "those with money" aka. corporation and state whom would give you an emplyment wants you to be. Like having various skills and being good at things isn't enough or doesn't really allways matter, it is the skills those corporations and states want you to have that matter (which just annoys me). All this have stressed me up really. In one aspect it has made me obsessed with money, which have had a really bad effect on my health, thinking that I have to find all kind of ways of making money and using all tools available, like trying to make money on my arrangements by selling sheet music, and also trying to grow my youtube channel very rapidly (which tbh, growing my youtube channel isn't that bad, in fact it is something I want, but stressing it and pushing it, is pretty bad). And after all that it has on the contrary let me to be pretty pissed, thinking that the current economic system is bad, wanting a better one. And then trying to come up with a better system. One pretty funny one was having a "money charger" like how when your phone is out of power you charge it, when your out of money you charge you card full?? ( or to some ammount, not sure what). I guess because of having some fear of being broke (which is a bit irrational as I'm receiving money in form of allowances because of being unemployed but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). Honestly no f**ing clue how good any of those alternatives are and just got a feeling some people would scream "inflation!" but that's where you're thoughts take you when you are in this scenario. And also more gotten the thoughts of "screw the money" just to get it out of my head for I guess health reasons. Which honestly makes a lot of sense. Tbh. I feel like I've stressed up way too much over what I think "society" or "others" kind of expect of me. Which as stated has just caused so much problems. And I'm starting to care less about this for my own health. And I'm even started taking a job-oriented studies, in the form of studying to become a gardener, which the course is pretty short in comparisson to other course (1 year only), and with a 90% chance of getting a job (according to the school who's in charge of the course, which I also trust). So honestly I shouldn't be that stressed up over things, but I still am which is annoying.

RE: the above - thinking about money stresses me out and pisses me off too. I'm better offer than many though, I was able to buy a house at a time when the housing market in my country is pretty chaotic. Big mortgage though.

In my news - I was involuntarily committed to the psych ward of a hospital here due to bipolar disorder. I was diagnosed with this a few years ago, but this was the first time I was put the hospital for it. Now I've been off work since September because of it...insurance is covering my time away from work but it really sucks. I would try to enjoy the time off from work as much as I can but kind of difficult given my brain keeps taking me for a ride unpredictably.

Edit: Wow nobody goes on this forum anymore. but I'll shout into the void again...this holiday season both my grandma and uncle died. Wow. Drove all the way home for 8 hours for the first funeral, had to be around my father, who I can't stand and is a massive trigger for my BP episodes. Then I got sick with a virus that gave me a fever. Got home then two days later, still sick, find out uncle died, now I have to drive back.

Hoping for a peaceful January.

I've been wanting to play some pop songs on piano, and noticed some annoying problem. Many of the sheet music for pop songs can be quite different from the original. Most notably different key. Which is really really annoying when you want to preform the song in the same key. This lead me to more careful and when choosing sheet music. So y, since there is no urtext when it comes to pop music, you have to be more selective when choosing sheet music.

It's a shame that Joycon drift has tainted the otherwise solid reputation of the Switch (even though it's a minor annoyance, it's still something that shouldn't be happening at all). Let's hope Nintendo does better with their next console.

Also pachinko pain is... not as bad as I was expecting. The one I truly fear is Noki 6. Or the Watermelon Festival o_o
