What are you thinking about right now?

Thinking about someone or something at the moment? Post it here. I'm thinking about watching a movie right now.

Well, now, thanks to you, I'm thinking about a song that has a lyric that goes "I'm thinking about thinking about the sort of thing that I thought that I'd never be thinking" but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called or who performed it. It had a sort of.. 311ish feel to it.
 
Thinking that if the girlfriend is any later, I'm just going to order a pizza and call it a night.
 
I'm thinking about my current research project and the internship I'm supposed to do next spring and what I'm making for dinner and my son's fraction homework and parent-teacher conferences at the end of the week...and crap I forgot to refill my prescription! Why isn't my husband home from work yet, what is that bird singing the lovely song outside, and I need to email an RSVP for a birthday party.

More? Because my brain is constantly on the go.
 
I'm worried about the student protestors who are occupying the Legislative Yuan building in Taipei, to express their dissatisfaction with the government's ham-fisted attempts to ram through a trade deal with China. Over the weekend, another group of protestors tried to storm the Executive Yuan building (basically the government HQ) and were beaten back by riot police. The students were entirely unarmed, and ended up bloodied by police wielding riot shields, batons, and water cannons.

It's all everyone in Taiwan can think about these days.

Oh, also, a politician who works in the Executive Yuan building complained on TV that the protestors had eaten a pack of cakes on his desk. In response, people have been sending him hundreds of boxes of cakes.
 
Had to try to explain to a coworker just exactly why he shouldn't give himself a Hitler 'stache and do the Nazi salute while speaking German while in the workplace.


So now I'm thinking about

1) why didn't I finish my degree?
2) does his argument that Hitler killed people with mental disabilities too, so because he has autism that makes it Ok, hold any water?

But mostly the college stuff.

Now I'm thinking that most people that claim to have autism are actually just self diagnosed as an excuse to act like a fool.

Please note that this is different from people who actually have it.

I've heard people self-diagnose with Asperger's, but not general autism. Autism has a more severe level of impairment in many cases--you can't really "act like a fool" to fake autism.

Asperger's is under the umbrella of autism, and is what I was talking about. I know several people who have self diagnosed them as such, and refer to themselves as autistic.
 
As a Jew, my philosophy on taking on attributes of a nazi comes down to two things:

1. Are you not seriously advocating the extermination of any number of a group of people?
2. Are you funny?

If you can answer yes to both questions, then go right ahead (see, South Park).
If not, then you look like an annoying idiot at best, and an anti-semetic asshole at worst
 
This is the same kid who feels most comfortable communicating in memes and has to be told to clean up glass that he himself broke, and doesn't understand why he has trouble focusing and then crashes after having 10 shots of espresso. However he can also explain how something in the coffee brewer is acting as an electromagnet and leaves his sketches of circuit boards all over the back desk.

He's probably the smartest idiot I know.

I mean he's quite sincerely apologized for making me feel "butthurt" before. I just Don't know what to do about him.
 
I'm thinking about how hopeless I feel, and isolated.

I'm thinking about how base I can be.

I'm thinking

Vanity of vanities
All is vanity.
 
I'm thinking about the shooting last night on board the USS Mahan and how the hell it could have happened.

A whole bunch of watchstanders are going to have to account for their actions, or lack thereof.

Since when does the POOW (Petty Officer of the Watch) carry a *loaded* weapon in the home port? How did the civilian manage to get the weapon?
 
I'm thinking about weather or not my my closing is happening tomorrow on my new house. Like, the house hit the records in 1958 but apparently the neighbors say it existed since the 1920 and I need to know this shit and find the last two residents but apparently they are ghosts or some shit.

I don't want to a delay in my closing. :s I have to move out by the first!

If it doesn't close, go with the ghost thing and make a fortune on haunted house tours and ghost hunters, mediums, reality TV mediums, really just charlatans as a whole.
 
New ideas aren't bad. I'm thinking that the OP is posting an awful lot and will pass my post count soon. And I've been here from the start.

Most aren't this sneaky anymore.
Most, no. But I've read about some "long con" plant accounts that try to build up seeming "legit" posts and then suddenly turn to marketing/advertising. With our latest member's very noticeable tendency to start so many new threads almost on a daily basis, it smells like someone trying to build a posting history in a hurry. I expect maybe in a week or few, the new "random question" threads will start having links in them that go to products.

Or I could just be paranoid.

She's not a plant. I did a little digging because I thought the same thing, and found she came here after being banned from a site called Socially Uncensored. You can find her old blog here, with the same anti-america stuff and asian-racist stuff she posts here. http://www.sociallyuncensored.eu/forums/xfa-blogs/mscerez.10307/
 
I'm thinking I can't do this, any of this. I'm thinking that I'm doing a shit job and I should be better, but if I actually tell anyone any of this that I will be a failure in their eyes. So I keep trudging along, trying not to explode or meltdown.
 
Usual thoughts, wondering who would win in a fight between Voltron and the base level Megazord, wondering if will I ever get super powers so I could take over the world for the betterment of man kind, scaredly thinking about when iss it all going to end,and annoyingly wanting to know when the hell the next freakin' episode of Ninja turtles is going to air.

Maybe she was running the same con there, but got banned before flipping. Or I could be wrong, as I said. It's just this is the exact sort of behavior I would expect out of a plant to try and "force" a presence on a site to try and establish themselves before starting to post a whole bunch of "sponsored links."
