Damn Dave. Did you flip off an old gypsy at some point?
Deer ThatNickGuy,
Keep the job. It will give you something to talk to girls about besides comics...
Trust me my oilfield adventures got me a whole lot further than my "The Question" collection.

Whatever you do, Dave, do not eat the pie the gypsies will give you to remove the curse. Don't let anyone in your family eat it either.

Happy update - sort of.
Turns out that it shorted out my AC but it was a small fix instead of the BIG fix we thought it might be. $420 later and we're back to cooling the house. It's now DOWN to 86 degrees in the house and it's going to take forever to cool down.
So $420 isn't as bad as we thought. Thankfully.

Dave's not here, man.
So I went out to celebrate a friends fundraising efforts for cancer, kinda got a bit tipsy at the pub and lost my phone. Nobody had handed it in when I left. Have one last chance to find it, ringing the manager later today and see if the cleaning crew found it. Slim chance I know. Think I will be uber raging if the cleaners didnt find it. Now I have to find the spare cash for a new phone

$420 eh? Think we could do a fund drive to patch that hole? Might endear us to your lady?
I miss making music.
Tried calling it to no avail. On the plus side it was still on until about 5 in the morning. If it did get stolen or picked up then the thieves would most likely turn it off. At least thats my thinking anyway. Going to ring them again when they open and see if the cleaners found it today. Even if it is gone the price of replacing it shold be under 500 so thats not too bad.

well my sister is at it again. making my family miserable.
My mom dropped her off at her friends house last night at 7:30 by 8 she was arrested for driving someone else's car under the influence without a license. Which makes perfect sense because there is always a cop or two watching her which I don't have a problem with, I would watch her too. But if the cops are always watching you it is EXTRA stupid to do something like that. The other reason I am especially pissed off is we knew that this friend of hers was bad news but Gina (my sister) is always saying she doesnt use or drink because she's pregnant. And we accepted that because in a perfect world being pregnant WOULD keep someone from using and sometimes my mom and I indulge ourselves by pretending we live in a perfect world. But of course we dont, and this chick has been drinking and using with Gina for months. So that is doubly depressing.
Not to mention that Gina is also on probation which means that she will now GO TO JAIL do not pass go do NOT collect 200 dollars. If I had jail looming over me I would be terrified and I would be on my best behavior. But not Gina. Gina doesnt feel ANYTHING. she doesnt care if she goes to jail she doesnt care if she gets hit by truck. There is no way to deal wit a person like that.
I had just been telling someone today how well she has been doing but of course it has all been a big lie. She has been using this whole time. I knew it too. I just like to lie to myself.
I was telling my mom that things have been going really well because we have been in extreme denial. Well guess what Im glad we were in denial because it made things easier on US. This bullshit fall of hers was inevitable at least this way we weren't suffering all the way to the drop.
Im also pissed because my mom has been stressed about other things and she really wants to go drink and gamble (she is in recovery for both). Now it is going to be even harder for her to deal with those compulsions. My sister is so selfish. I don't understand why i always have to be the one that gets everything dumped on her. It would be so easy for me to turn to drugs or alcohol or gambling to try and ease the strain of my stupid life but I dont. why because that is not how life is. You don't get to run away and live in a stupor just because you fucking want to, just because it would be easier. Im just pissed off right now.
I really REALLY want to go into my sisters room drag her stupid ass out of her bed and pummel her head into the floor. But I wont, not only because it is morally wrong but also because im not even supposed to know about what happened. My mom told my sister she wouldnt tell me. Yay. Ill have fun keeping this to myself.

I'm sorry to hear that. I wish I had some advice to share but I don't know anything that would really help. I guess just keep an eye on your mom and be there for her while she's there for you. Maybe some prison time will do your sister good? Seeing that her actions have consequences and knowing that, in there at least, she's alone. That might be enough to get her to rethink some life decisions.

Makare - I don't think it's fair that you have to keep this to yourself. While I wouldn't condone beating her head into the floor, I think you have the right to express your feelings and blow up at her for being an idiot. I'm sorry you and your family are going through this.
Pummel her in the head and make up some other reason for it. "To improve your face" or something similar.
Beat and shout her anyway. You are the instrument of universe.
EDIT: Keep it from her though, or else your mom won't tell you this stuff later.

I'm getting mad and upset over the stupidiest thing.
The context: I have a profile on a dating site. These days, that's probably not as out of the ordinary as it used to be. Anyway, they have a profile reviews section in their forums, where fellow users pick apart your profile and give (usually) constructive criticism.
The thread's link: Have at thee! Free Dating, Singles and Personals
And I get home to read someone's fucking hurtful comments. My main profile pic "looks like a poster child for trailer trash" and apparently, it's not okay for me to mention that I'm a geek.
So yeah, it goddamn hurt and the comments were widely unneeded and unconstructive. Pretty much ruined what decent day I'd had.

Dude, most (if not all except the last) commentaries were what could be called constructive criticism. Just ignore the last one as a troll and carry on.
Also, he's wrong. Ladies do dig the gentleman geek.

Nick - That last guy was a total prick. He's probably bagging on your profile because his sucks. Being a geek is not nearly the stigmatizing label it once was. Trailer trash? Elmer Fudd? Seriously?!? Don't let one asshole drag you down, hon.
