Yay for 1.25x!While I was away on vacation my feedly RSS concatenator built up a backlog of like 40 youtube videos I haven't watched yet and it's stressing me out.
Full repair cost is actually > $8k, sooo....off to the classifieds I go!Expectation is that full repair bill would probably come out to $5k-$6k on top of that but really I'm just after whatever it'll take to keep it running safely until I can replace it with something from more recent than 2008.
I want to hug and brofist this so hard.Blech - had a phone interview and I feel like I effed it up. Damn it. So many questions that I wasn't prepared for. Now, I feel dumb and a failure. Job hunting sucks so much.
How about a bro-hug, my good owl?I want to hug and brofist this so hard.
I feel more than secure enough in my masculinity that all my hugs are bro-hugs, Mr monkey!How about a bro-hug, my good owl?
Dear Mr Owl,I feel more than secure enough in my masculinity that all my hugs are bro-hugs, Mr monkey!
Speaking as someone who has worked reception and/or switchboards, you're going to get that a lot. A LOT. I've mentioned it before, at my last job, for every 4 phone calls, 3 were unbelievably rude.*sigh* I hate hate hate HATE customers who call just to tell and won't let me get a word in or refuse to listen. I'm actually on the verge of crying. Fucking hell.
New policy: one warning to stop yelling or I end the call. One warning.
People with REAL gluten allergies feel your pain.right now there seems to be this cutesy, fake-seeming "omg I'm so awkward" thing that just won't die. I don't really like to complain about it because you never know who's just being a lazy idiot who doesn't feel like making an effort and who's really suffering and hiding behind a sillier version of what they truly feel.
As someone who used to suffer from pretty severe social anxiety (the medication I'm on is like magic and has turned me into a social butterfly) the one thing I never wanted to do when I was anxious was call attention to it. I'd make excuses for why I didn't want to be in social situations or just act like I want interested, because the idea of people finding out was terrifying. Everyone copes in their own way, of course, but that was my perspective.I feel for people who truly have anxiety and have trouble leaving the house or being in social situations... but right now there seems to be this cutesy, fake-seeming "omg I'm so awkward" thing that just won't die. I don't really like to complain about it because you never know who's just being a lazy idiot who doesn't feel like making an effort and who's really suffering and hiding behind a sillier version of what they truly feel. But there are some people in my social circle for whom it's painfully obvious that they just love the attention they get by pretending to be this bundle of shyness and awkwardness for attention and "internet hugs" It kind of hits the same nerve as people who like parallel lines who say "I'm so OCD." -_-
Well, when you take meds to lower your overactive inhibitions, it also lowers your regular inhibitions.As for my own whine... Ever since becoming less anxious and having more of a social life, I now have a whole lot less money.
And we already know I'm wildly irresponsible with moneyWell, when you take meds to lower your overactive inhibitions, it also lowers your regular inhibitions.

I’m sure before you were just “irresponsible” instead of “wildly irresponsible.”And we already know I'm wildly irresponsible with money
While I suppose this could be called a side effect, it's a behavioral one rather than a direct difference in brain chemistry. It was easier to not spend money when I never left the house.I’m sure before you were just “irresponsible” instead of “wildly irresponsible.”
There are things you can do to help counteract this, but they aren’t fun. At least you’re not experiencing any gambling side effects, right?

I read this really quick as "James Franco", and my first thought was, "Well, Freaks & Greeks is still really good...".My boarder LOVES Philip DeFranco. How the fuck does a 32 year old man watch that shit?
What even is Philip DeFranco?My boarder LOVES Philip DeFranco. How the fuck does a 32 year old man watch that shit?
Dipshit Youtuber that recycles news while adding that bullshit fence sitting both sides nonsense in. In every one of his video images he makes a face like Tucker Carlson's idiot confused face too which just infuriates me for no reason.What even is Philip DeFranco?
I feel you. I hate eating in the morning, it always makes me nauseous if I have to eat more than a piece of toast.I'm not normally a big early in the day eater. I eat, but it's usually muted foods that won't bother me much.
Today, I ate the biggest breakfast I've had in years (I'm aware this isn't exactly a massive meal, like I'd eat this and then some for dinner easily I just don't eat a ton early). 3 scrambled eggs, 4 slices of fat fuck bacon, a pile of home fries and some toast.
I feel like I'm going to barf even 30 minutes later.
Geezus. And on a Sunday, too!12 hour work day.
9 of those hours are meetings.
I have one meeting left.
Ug.
