By forever, you mean until the HeadWeasel gets bored, right? Or spots a shinier head?
You don't take them off. HeadWeasels(TM) are forever.
Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

No one has a shinier head than @Bubble181.
Ah yes, my cosplay days.
There's a silly martial arts movie where a guy signals from a mountaintop to another guy on the other side of a valley in morse code by reflecting the sun off his bald head like a mirror, but for some reason I can't find a .GIF of it.No one has a shinier head than @Bubble181.

Ok French teacher. Our marks were promised within days of the exam.
I wrote the reading comprehension. I wrote the written expression and god damn it!!!!! I spoke in front of the class and my question period was way longer than it should have been and I had two people ask me questions after class.
Where are my marks. I’m no longer patient.
I needs my grade.

The final class is tonight. I guess he’s just going to be cute and make us suffer and see if he hands us one diploma (for attendance/completion) or two (passing grade and can advance to the next level).
I dunno, they might become the cybersecurity minister for Japan!
Japan's cybersecurity minister has never used computer
No that's not a joke. I so wish it was.
I did really well 
I just hate waiting.

Would it be better if you described it as "This week at work sooboobooboobooboobooboobooboobooboobooboobcks"?
Is that how that works?
It's the day before thanksgiving and I get the full weekend but I just feel shitty. It's not even the usual "I want the long weekend so I don't care about work" feeling, it's just an overwhelming feeling of dread about the weekend. I don't even know why, I don't actually have anything Im not looking forward to. I've just felt terrible all day and I don't even have an explanation for it.
Oh god, so my daughter and I are painting her bedroom, and she has never done this kind of thing before, and while it's not hard, she doesn't really understand the right way to do things and it's slowly becoming a disaster. But better to learn now than be a non-functional adult.
At least, that's what I say to comfort myself.

Dammit, Julieeeeee!
I try to get her a couple items that aren't on her Amazon wish list. I thought I did a good job this year, but as happened last year, she later added those things to her wish list after I told her I was done with shopping. So now I feel like I need to find something else, but I shouldn't have to. Those were already my good ideas! It's not my fault they were so good she then saw them online and decided she wanted them.
Meanwhile, miss subtle is over in her chair asking "So what are some franchises you like?" so she can comb Etsy for knickknacks. I had genuinely good ideas that came to my brain that she stole, but she's just going to type in Dark Souls and get me something I'll probably like, but it wasn't inspired and that's not the same!

Without an in-person inspection, it's hard to tell if that's the actual cause of your crashes, but overheating and crashing due to dust buildup is one of the easiest things to fix about computers (usually just takes eyeballs and a can of compressed air) and you're always supposed to try the easiest stuff first*.

*Can confirm. Have disassembled an appliance or two just to find either the breaker had tripped or a clip came off the back of the "ON" switch or some other facepalmery.
Our heater died on Friday, and we can't get someone in until the end of the week. It's going to cost $$$ to replace it. Yay homeownership.
So I mentioned a while ago that my aunt died. That's obviously a big booh.
But before she died she promised us her bedroom closets, so we get a new bedroom! Our previous bedroom closet got moist and damp and is now half-eaten by fungus, sooo..... Hurray!
But we have to go and get it. Booh.
We can also have the bed, which is 40cm (16-ish inches?) wider than our current one. Hurray!
We also have to go and get that. Booh.
We can also take the living room table and chairs, and tv wardrobe! Which are definitely better than our current 10-year-old Ikea stuff. Yay!
We also have to go and get those. Booh.
OK, so it sounds like I'm complaining about having to go and fetch half a house of free (and pretty good and not-exactly-but-close my style) stuff, which is kinda sucky of me.
But...I have to go measure everything next week, and haul everything around here the week after. During the work week, while I don't have vacation. And it's about a 4 hour round trip each time. Oh, and I'll have to rent a truck or something, because most of this stuff won't fit in a car - let alone all of it in one or two gos. We'll have to rent a ladder lift to get it all out of her apartment, too. And there's no way in hell that I'll be ableto clear out our old furniture and break that all down before that time, so my house is going to be overflowing with 2x all the furniture I need. Also, it'll be just me, my girlfriend and my aunt (widow of the one who died, 60+ years old) to take everything apart, move it, and get it out and set up somewhere.
PRO: lots of good quality second hand stuff
CON: there's a pretty strict time limit, and rental and driving to and fro will easily cost us a few hundred dollars - which is cheap for what we're getting, but not a short-term expense I had planned for, and I'm going to be stressed out as all hell for a while as my house is all upside down and too busy. And I'll be sore from all the lifting and stuff.
So, you know, it's not terrible, but I still think I'm entitled to a bit of a whine.

But the furniture comes with a free frogurt!
The frogurt is also cursed.
Raise your hand, Halforumites, if you find it weird that a closet is something you can go and pick up.
I can't help English being a stupid language
Cupboard, wardrobe, closet, armoire, dresser...
But you just named 5 different things. D:I can't help English being a stupid language
Cupboard, wardrobe, closet, armoire, dresser...
Sure you can. Well, you can mitigate it at least. Hire @bhamv3.I can't help English being a stupid language
The idea of a closet room was alien to me when I came to the states, outside movies.
