You're not the only one. I haven't seen this much awkward fumbling since I got a hold of Dave's prom videos.
Of course it didn't help that they were all in black and white. And silent. With those goofy cards in place of talking, with things like "Oh no! My zipper is stuck!". Man that sucked.
I feel the same way about guardrails. They're fairly ugly, but there are always other things to think about or look at. So even if I notice them and wish they wouldn't there, in twenty seconds I'm looking past them and into the trees I'm driving past.
I do that same sort of thing with a few forum shticks. Although I do admit that on an odd day I find them endearing, and I'll feed the animals a little.
My rant:
I had seven movies in my hands today. Seven. Some of them I have been waiting to see for months. Years, even. Some of them were big award winners, with potentially worldview-altering representations of events. But I picked up Step Brothers instead, on the recommendation of a friend.
It was a decently funny movie. But I feel a bit regretful. I could have rented that one on iTunes, and gotten Che: Part 1 for five dollars more.
On a brighter note, I finally saw The Last Starfighter. It was fun.

Step Brothers is funny as hell, you ain't gotta watch important movies every day. Che Part 1 is really amazing though and got robbed of a few Oscar noms in my opinion.
Well, don't get me wrong. I'm mostly upset that I bought it. It was good, but it wasn't a movie I have any interest in watching again soon. It wasn't as funny as I thought it would be, but it was still good.
There were other movies I'd have rathered spend my money on. I could have just rented Step Brother's. I need to get out of this habit of buying all my movies instead of renting some.

you mean this doesn't feel all nostalgic from back when you hated me?
Nah, back in the day I just wasn't on to you. And I don't hate Shego. I'd just like to change the channel is all.

Loverly?
My last day off was Saturday.
My next day off...is Saturday. I need the hours, but I'm already tired and I still have the whole week to go.

Eh, I didn't hear from her directly; technically, she doesn't know I have sort of a crush on her. Actually, she may really not know, and I may be misinterpreting stuff. Still, not worth pursuing now.
Basically, several of our friends have been trying to couple us for a while now - it started off as innocent jokes and such, but it can be get quite annoying by now. Honestly - booking 4 double hotel rooms for three couples and us? Not cool -_-. Anyway, a mutual friend of ours (her best friend), who knows I have a crush on her, sort-of-innocently inquired about all the coupling jokes, and she replied she thinks they're incredibly annoying and that people really shouldn't look for anything there, she certainly doesn't, and she hopesI don't, either.
Soooooo.....yeah.

Yes, so that she wouldn't have to put up ith you in her guest room :-p
And I know, but I got a pretty much verbatim account of the conversation. Either she (the friend)'s misinterpreting her (my crush) reaction, or it's a big no. And I happen to really trust this mutual friend of ours. Eh.
...and weren't you Chinese?!
But yeah, I'm currently half-way to convincing myself I need to talk to her about it myself. I'm masochistic enough that I'll end up doing so, but not after first hurting myself a week or so by imagining all the worst case scenarios - and, of course, convincing myslef they'll happen, which is a huge self-fulfilling prophecy anyway. Egh.

You lucky, lucky bastard.
I vote you invite everyone who posts in this thread with a serious rant over and let them work out their frustrations for a while :-P
That is fucking ridiculous.
No kidding. What the fuck can you do with stolen windshield wipers? I don't think there's a big market for that.
Have any idea who could possibly have done it to spite you?

Don't know. All I know is it's raining and I have to go get my paycheck for lunch or I don't eat.

Wife has been out of work since January.
Found the PERFECT job posting, applied, and got called in for an interview in fairly short measure. The person who set up the interview and the interviewer both made it seem like they were looking to fill the job ASAP. It seemed fairly clear that wifey's experience matched up to exactly what they needed....
And yet it's been over a week since that interview, the job has been re-posted, and yet no word from them if they are A) still evaluating applicants, B) still considering her C) no longer considering her D) having any sort of clue about what they really want or how much they do or don't want to fill the job.

That's been my problem for months: Not getting any sort of feedback from people I apply with.

to be fair, HR employees are just as overworked as the rest of the working poor, and likely swamped, wouldn't you think?
