The General Thread

[Saney]

There's a guy driving around in the parking lot shouting out how he just had sex.

I really wanna move.

I suddenly know exactly how you feel. They even played this. I'm not kidding, they really did (talk about missing the point...)

I had a really weird dream that everyone on the boards took a road trip to a place where it always stormed and there were no streets. Only very narrow roads flying everywhere.

It was terrifying.

That was no dream.

Well. My husband has another angle on my situation, one that I'm not sure how I feel about (flattered, awkward, a little bit of both). He thinks my supervisor has a thing for me.

I talk glowingly about the guy since he's the first boss I've ever had who's looked out for me and has mentored me instead of writing me off as an expendable body that can be easily replaced by another minimum wage slave. I've told him a few things about my boss that I haven't posted here, and the one incident that stands out was when I bit my lip in front of him.

We were talking about getting more people on the inventory team. I suffer from mild dehydration, so my lips are dry. I'd gotten into the habit of biting my bottom lip for dry skin (yeah, I know, it's gross... this was before I started carrying lip balm on my person). Without realizing it, in the middle of the conversation, I bit my lip. I didn't start scraping or anything. Just a slow slide to feel for any dry bits.

My supervisor's mood changed suddenly. He startled, then quickly looked away as if he were scanning for something along the wall. He tripped over his words a few times until he finally got back on track. We finished our conversation, then went our separate ways. Then I realized I'd been biting my lip, and while I didn't find anything gross, well, it might have appeared so to him.

When I told my husband about it, he gave me a mocking, sly look and called me a temptress. He then informed me that some men find lip biting to be hot... which I find weird, because what's hot about front teeth clamping down on a lip?

I'm a bit more confused now.

I also apply lots of lip balm and drink Gatorade on a regular basis, and I'm trying to cut down on the lip biting. It might have been contributing to the dryness.

Yea, my Husband thinks lip biting is hot too.

I'll never understand menfolk.

 

[Surtur]

Surtur fails to understand puny humans as a whole.

 

[pickleniggo]

My head is killing me. Caffeine dependency is a real bitch.

 

[cypocryphy]

Get a new head then.

 

[pickleniggo]

[Smokedaddy]

Compy! That was supposed to be our secret!

 

[Holdek]

Today, I stopped giving a shit, curled up into a fetal position in the shower, and cried because I'm starting to feel stupid for defending everybody I meet without taking into consideration that they probably wanted to hurt me more than they wanted to help me.

That, and being sick makes me grumpy, and being grumpy reminds me of how mad I can get, and remembering how mad I can get reminds me of getting mad at people, and when I think about getting mad at people, well, I cry.

 

[Anathema]

This pot I bought today is incredibly hairy. This is some good shit.

 

[Holdek]

Fuck it all, this is what happens when I show anything other than sarcasm or apathy. When I show actual emotion, people get freaked out because it's weird, scary, or unnatural.

i can empathise
whenever i smile people tell me to stop

Jesus. For real?

This pot I bought today is incredibly hairy. This is some good shit.

I can't believe it! My best friend from high school (and one of the only sane people in my cult of a high school) is getting married. I may or may not be invited or asked to be a bridesmaid, I don't know. But I mean, she is the same age as me, 20 years old.

I THOUGHT SHE WAS BETTER THAN THAT! Seriously! I at least thought that she would wait until she earns her degree like me!

She makes me feel like such an old maid!

All this school stress is inexplicably bringing my other life issues to the surface at the most inconvient time, and really giving me the urge to just drive home and self harm like crazy. I hate this place. God I hate this class and I'm just sick of this place. It's my last damn semester. I'm really just not giving a fuck.

my work stress is insane as well, i however have taken the passive aggressive self harm route of binge drinking, chain smoking, and trying to get sick. i just want to sleep and have nothing happen. just left alone.

Apparently I mixed up my dates and got back to university a week early. No lectures this week (not that there are many anyway, I only have 1 or 2 on Mondays since it's some kind of 'consolidation period'), barely anyone around (some of my friends are here though).
It's so peaceful and quiet. I haven't heard Bangarang once since I got back! And I'm not at home, which is good, because I don't like spending much time with my family.
I feels a bit out of place amongst my online friends, since most of them really dislike their college/university, but I love mine. Bit like Harry Potter and Hogwarts, I guess.
