New Speak Your Mind thread.SPEAK IT!Spoilering cause I don't want the first post to be depressing all the time. Found out today that my uncle died yesterday. We weren't all that close but he was a super great guy who is leaving behind three daughters and a wife. I'm sad more for them than for anything, and I'm upset that I can't make it out to his funeral. I feel like I owe his memory at least that much.On another note I'm somewhat dehydrated from not drinking anything except beer for the past few days. Didn't even realize it. Drinking water now.
in a way i miss the appalling london hipsters
This song is to me what "How Can I Live Without You" is to Miley.>>273338I can't lie, I have a certain admiration/affinity for the hipsters in my hometown. They do their damnedest to make the most out of whatever little potential for culture and identity there is without spray painting or tattooing the local area codes on their trucks or bodies.

Nose stuffed, sore throat, sneezing, and ears popping.>>Family friend lied to me about taking me somewhere when I gave her an out for anyway>>Nephew being a dick all because I told him to come back and close the fucking door.

Just found out a guy I worked with at my first job had a heart attack last night.
...I kinda feel bad for having a kickass day now.
Whoa, so despite some "Why hello thar stop motion animation"-moments Terminator sure kicked ass, and I feel manlier just by watching it, not to mention less cinematic illiterate.Now I gotta sleep. I have approximately 35 hours to write and prepare the first adventure in the space-western GURPS campaign I'm gonna run.
Hey /baw/, how do you make friends at a university other than joining clubs? I don't expect to make many friends instantly. But the fact that its been two weeks and I've only really met like 4 people sucks...Sucks I'm all ahead in homework and I have nothing to do because of lack of friends.
I find it really amusing that my law textbooks basically say takings law (where the government is empowered to take private land for public use public benefit) used to make sense until about thirty years ago when some Supreme Court justices who had no understanding of the particular branch of law decided to make radical changes to the doctrine, creating a convoluted mess that no one understands anymore. In its own words: "figuring out when a taking of private property has occurred is the lawyer's equivalent of the physicist's hunt for the quark."
>>273374hang out in the common areas? go to student nights?
>>273376I've been doing that, nobody really comes to me. I'm not gonna be Chris-chan and sit there with a sign in common areas. Tomorrow there's a pool party lunch. How do I make friends then?
>>273378Talk to people in your classes and shit, I dunno, that's what I did.
>>273378>I've been doing that, nobody really comes to me.go to them
>>273378>I'm not going to be Chris-Chan>nobody really comes to me>comes to meGo out and go to them Nobody comes to you because nobody comes to anyone.
>>273378Look, here's how it work: You can either a) take initiative and start talking to people, and maybe make friends, or you could b) Sit in your corner and don't talk initiatives, and surely make no friends at all. It's a maybe-win/surely-loose situation.
>>273378Don't sit with a sign. Read a book or do work. Either strike up a conversation with someone, or someone else might with you.Definitely go to the pool party.Pro-tip from a social retard who learned this way too late in life: If someone asks you something like "don't I know you from somewhere" they don't mean that literally. They are probably into you.
>>273386b) might work but only if you are sufficiently adorable (and/or female)
>>273378Wear a "Free Hugs" shirt too.
first night in my new apartment :)it's tiny but goddamn it looks good
>>273388>Pro-tip from a social retard who learned this way too late in life: If someone asks you something like "don't I know you from somewhere" they don't mean that literally.Ahahah man I hear you.
I've been so fucking hyper all day, oh my god. It's 2.15am and I'm still shivering and shaking and bouncing around. I have the giggles like crazy, my face hurts from my 24 hour cheeser!
The part of my town where my friend lives was on fire earlier, and I don't know if it still is. Argh I hope she's okay.
So I put vanilla ice cream in my coffeefriday night excitement!!!!!!!!!
This
>>273424And then this
Well date night was alright, girl wasn't my type and a bit awkward, but I had some great nerd convos with her and we wandered around downtown and found some awesome little shops and a marching bagpipe band and Parliament was doing a light show on capital hill. But she didn't pan through and so it looks like I'm still single and that kind su-HOLD EVERYTHINGGUYS, LOOKTHIS IS THE SHOW I WORK ON. please judge it for good or for bad I want to know what you thinkI don't know if I should make a thread on /co/ or not
>>273423I'm getting wicked déjà vu--tell me this isn't the first time you've done this.
>>273426I was receiving regular laughs and the art style is fantastic. I give it an A, A+ if it can keep the quality up over multiple seasons.
>>273428This is actually one of the simpler episodes. I mean, I can't really talk details or anything, but it gets way bizarrer and WAY funnier as it goes along. I really enjoy working on it. Clamantha's the best.
>>273426The clam talks like The Ugly One.I like it, Red!
>>273426I didn't find it funny at all, but visually I thought it was great and I really liked the general idea of fish in fish tanks and all. Bea sounds like my sister.>>273430I hope it does get funnier. I'm glad you enjoy it.
IT'S ASTRO'S BIRTHDAY.Well, at least where she lives.
>>273434Then we shall all go over to where she lives to celebrate it.
Guys.I really hate MTG
>>273426I was kind of meh on most of it but then the spider played a sick riff and I was sold.But really, the Ugly One clam and a few pretty good laughs in between, not to mention the great visuals.
>>273437I just don't get it.
When I'm sat around thinking of overdosing there are loads of sleeping pills around the house, but the moment I need some to sleep they're all gone.Fuck sake.
Guys how the hell do you play Mortal Drunkbat I don't know if I'm winning.
>>273445I figure that if Mortal Kombat is to the death, the same rules apply.Either way, I lost. I got like two beers down :(
I made a lot of stupid mistakes today. Said a lot of stupid things.Just like every day.
I just saw a commercial for something that puts blu rays on your phone.Because you'll really benefit from that HD experience on your teeny, tiny screen.
>>273448I love you.
>>273448This, only more so. I've ruined my mom's life and my parents' marriage. She thinks she's a failure as a parent because of me. And you all probably understand why. I'm an awful, vile person. I should have never existed.
>>273453You can't blame yourself for anyone's decisions but your own, TD. I'm so sorry to hear that. If you need someone to talk to, I've got a few instant messenger programs.
>>273454You got yahoo IM? ;~;I'm sylviamewburn13@yahoo.com
>>273456Bones added me! :D(polite sage for double-post)

i had ice cream for dinner idgaf about food anymore
>get high and watch "Frozen">my faceweird ass movie, WOLVES R BAD
So it turns out I'm a huge douche.Sort of hate myself for it.But I'm one of those "BE YOURSELF NO MATTER WHAT" people. It feels like the one moral I've stuck to.But being such a jerk all the time is starting to depress me.But I think it would also depress me to go back on what feels like the last moral I've clung to.WHAT DO.Spoiler for emotion bullshit that no one cares about.
>>273468>I'm a huge douche.Well, at least no one can say you have a dry personality.
>>273468EasyChange who you are.
>>273472Charles Barkley, everybody...

What the hell is "data roaming"?And I know it ain't data that existed during the time of Julius Caesar.
>>273476Well obviously if you hate the fact that you are such a dick, then that isn't really who you are.So stop it. If you are going to feel like shit either way, at least go the way that doesn't make other people feel like shit too.
two days in a row i got odd end jobs:'D
Guys I'm pretty much the greatest thing ever, I've officially decided.Fuck yeah me.
>>273488And now he's aware of it. There will be absolutely no living with him after today.Also: >First time beating Spelunky
>Come home from night shift to find an "empty" houseGood End:>AND THEN THE NINJAS ATTACKEDReality End:>Mom and her boyfriend are hiding from me because they probably just fucked
>>273499 Worst End:You just haven't noticed them finishing up in your room yet.
>>273504And then Jonix became Batman.
So.I went to this...comic book Con they are having here RIGHT DOWN THE BLOCK and...UGHUSUHGUSHU.SO MANY FUCKING ANIMOO FANGIRLS.So much NE NE KAWAII DESSU YOOU SOU NAN DESS KARR YAOI-TE NANI XDXD LOL RANDOM humour going on.Holy fuck.I feel so fucking uncomfortable around these squealing NERDY NERD NERDSSSS.TOO.MUCH.ANIMU fsijgsfihsgh.

>>273512I have a small story related to this! I'm going to the big local Comic Con this year. I missed out last year so I am totes excited. Only this is the first year they're joining with the local big Anime Con. /BAW/ SHOULD I STILL BE EXCITE?
>>273505>implying Jonix wasn't always Batman
>>273447>>273445MORTAL DRUNKBAT FINAL RESULTSProbe wins because he was obviously too drunk to text me back.I am second place because Doom said so.Lucas is third place because he is my little brother and I love him.Doom is fourth place because I dig blonds.Miley is last place because fuck Denny's.>>273434ASTRO'S BIRTHDAY? Good thing I mailed her a present.
Damn you, TV Tropes!
Doom is a good guy.
>>273483Poster of >>273468 here, and that is not me that you were replying to!But yeah, good advice, I guess.I actually decided to warp your first advice, and sloooooowly transition into a good person, so that it'd be like, I'd still be being me, but in a good mood. And eventually, it'd get to the point where being kind to everyone was natural! So then I could be a sugar-coated candy king and still technically be me.Loopholes in my brain, man.Although now I'm wondering if I'm actually one of those hilarious douches, and if becoming super kind will kill my sense of humor. Damn it.HAPPY MEDIUMS.
>>273551>>273556
I found out the other day my school has a program where if I do some graduate coursework my senior year, I could get an MSPH in one year after graduating.really wanna do it
>>273561Dolph you are drunk, your head isn't even on right.You are so drunk.
I am fed up with club football already. I don't think you understand how completely my body is ready for 2012/14.
>>273583I would post something else to agree with you, but nothing can beat that video.
Guys my computer speakers are playing radio signals.how does this happen i am not gud with tehcnology
>>273601I wouldn't worry until you start hearing the voice of your dead father.
>>273557Don't worry. I've always been a dick. Just be general nice most of the time and keep a smile on your face, people will think you're just joking. It's really just a matter of balance. Every now and then you'll go too far though and say something totally inappropriate, and you will enjoy it but if you're nice enough in general, they will quickly forgive you.
These cats. They hate me already. How am I supposed to watch them for five days if they won't even come inside while I'm here?
So I went past Coela's DA page and saw this. That girl really loves her some Gyarados.
>>273601You know, that's weird. Last night I was talking with my cousin on the phone and every now and then I would get silence, like he stopped talking to pay attention to something else, but when the sound came back, he said that he could hear another conversation but couldn't make out the sounds. Towards the end of our phone call, I got to hear it and he got the silence. It sounded like a woman, breaking up, speaking something similar to Spanish mixed with some light speaker feedback.
>>273607Go through my favourites and compare the number of gyarados you see to say, pictures of Kratos or something.
I think this calls for Kratos riding a Gyarados....Gyaratos, or something.
>>273607>>273614>>273616
>>273617
>>273616>>273617Kratos and Gannon jousting with Gyaradoses?
Using the Gyaradoses as the horses or the lances?
>>273619I don't think you understand what's going on here.
>>273621Yes.
>>273621As mounts, I was thinking.Can it be both?
>>273629Not as though they're lacking in projectiles. Learn Hyper Beam and Hydro Pump naturally.
Just got called in for an interview on Monday at a local TV station...optimism pays off...
>>273644interview for a JOB
>>273644>>273645Good luck
>>273551We should do Mortal Drunkbat again when I am not out and about with my friends eating terrible food.And no, don't explain the rules. That would ruin the magic.>>273426I liked it.But then again, I've seen every episode of Emperor's New School. My opinion means less than nothing.
>>273425This honestly makes me feel grody. I hope against hope that this guy is some sort of parody, because the thought of someone actually acting like such a caveman gives me all kind of bad feelings.
>>273652Mortal Drunkbat is the Calvinball of drinking games.
>>273655I could've sworn I sent you a text saying "the fuck is this, Calvinball?"I must've cleared it after being beered by an unknown assailant.
>>273655The best kind of game!

>>273679Ahaha, mannn, I should fix the spelling errors and shit in that someday with how much it gets passed around.
Baby sister, why do our parents give you so much money. They make less than they did when I was in high school.I know they do. You have so much expensive crap, eat at expensive restaurants, go to the movies multiple times a week, go to major stadium shows all the time, and have never worked.I had to beg for fucking co-pay money at your age. Christ.
>>273679Also, I don't think whoever posted that there realizes it was for character design purposes...
>>273688A few people in the comments gave you a shout out. One guy even linked to MGDMT.
>>273681you should probably put your name on it too. unless you did and they erased it.
>>273697They cropped the whole damn thing.
>>273697you know, it doesn't actually bother me that a lot of the stuff I make isn't easily traced back to me. Cuts down on the "BUT WHAT ABOUT-" emails I have to respond to.
>>273701motherfuckers
>>273688I forget if I ever thanked you for doing these. They did help a great deal, even if I can't quite make the most of them yet.

>>273701How insanely helpful.
>>273718I got sick of seeing people learn how to draw one buff guy body and never doing anything else. Also, bad abs in general. There are eight muscles there, it's fair game to draw eight abs, but the top set is directly below the pectorals. If you slide it under the ribs then you just gave your character ten abs. An alarming number of people do this.
>>273729I need to buy a copy of Gray's Anatomy or something, it's really alarming how little I know about human anatomy or how muscles layer over each other. It'd probably be a huge eye opener.
>>273732Yeah look at how well it helped me.
>>273732Gray's Anatomy I don't find as helpful as people champion it to be, most of it is like... organs and stuff you don't really need to draw much. There's another book, I can't remember the name of it now but I could find it if you're interested, it separates the body into individual muscle groups and shows all of the origin and insertion points with plenty of pictures and references to show how they work.
>>273729The funnier thing is when people see abs drawn anatomically correctly but complain that there's "too many" (8 vs 6). :3cAlso, gonna chime in with how in love with your tutorials I am.
>>273732They're vury helpful!
>>273736you mean the Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist?It's got all the bones and joints, and then shows how all the muscles and ligaments and stuff go over top them. We used it in school.
>>273736I'd be interested! I'm still majorly, majorly flubbing things like arms, hands and feet.

When a man urinates into a toilet, there are a number of steps that he must follow in order.1. If the seat is down, lift it to maximize target area.2. Carefully aim urine stream into the bowl.3. Flush.4. Wash hands.Why do the guys on my floor struggle with this? Are they in such a hurry to replenish their blood alcohol that they don't have time for basic hygiene? Were they raised in impovershed Third World countries that lack plumbing? Do they fear that the smallest sign of fastidiousness will earn them the label of HOMOGAY FAGGOTS? Are they talking dogs wearing lifelike human costumes?
>>273816Drink enough beer to nearly die from blood alcohol poisoning and then try to hit the board in a game of darts.And now you understand college 24/7
La Roux and Tilda Swinton are the same person. I refuse to believe otherwise. Refuse.
>discover I'm only truly content when drunk>get shot down by someone I hooked up with last semester but now is too neurotic to even sit next to me>9/11 memories>forget to do laundryIt's been an interesting weekend. Time to become an alcoholic, I guess.
>>273816what I don't get is why some guys seem to think washing their hands after peeing is optional. washing after shitting is obvious, but peeing magically excludes them from washing their hands. it's so nasty.every time I see someone leave the bathroom without washing their hands I ask them to wash their hands. I don't even bother being polite about it with an 'oops, I think you forgot something!' all cute, they're just filthy assholesanyways why are there so many empty wine bottles in my house huh
and i'm watching dexter so now i want a medianoche sandwiches but there's no pork in my house! or bread, or pickles, and half a bottle of mustardhow are we even surviving in here?
Ah hah oh wow.
>>273821I guess the idea is, "It's not like I'm peeing on my hands." But they're still spreading whatever's on their dicks to everything they touch.
>>273824Wait, hasn't this happened before? Oh lawd gurl.>>273822You're not, this is all just your dying hallucination.
>>273824oh my god that mewto guy is still at it?god DAMN
>>273826It's the same guy, apparently he just harbours a seething hatred of me.
>>273828You know what this means? You've made it in the world.

>>273829Truth. You can't truly be big on the internet without your own crazy aspie with a hate-on for you.
Oh good, my instant messengers are so happy.
My right monitor has been acting up lately. Last week for a couple of days it stayed black for an extra minute when I first turned it on. Now it's making some kind of hissing noise. Oh, no! It might be time for AN UPGRADE!!! :D
Intense fear of countryside axe murderers has kept me up all night. Son of a bitch.
>>273848Jesus christ, really?It's just the woods, man. The sleepy, green, windy, critter filled woods. -I'd- be terrified of the sterile construct of a city. You can't scare a mugger off just by standing up, screaming and waving your arms aggressively like you could a bear. :O
>>273849Yeah but at home I always tend to have someone I can call for help right next door or in the other room if Tim the murderous woodsman comes calling in the middle of the night. The country is like space, no one can hear you scream and piss yourself like a little girl.
>>273848shit, I feel you. but isn't there anyone with you in the countryside?Intense fear of a deadly infection in my gums has kept me up all night, but I may have a psychological problem.
>>273850Just do what I do and keep a knife under your pillow. In a sheath.
>>273848I thought you lived out in the country to start with. And aren't you staying in someone else's home?
>>273853I live right in the middle of a decent sized town. Staying at my aunt and uncle's an hour a way, housesitting for them and making sure their pets get fed, in the middle of the countryside now.>>273851Nope, here alone.>>273852Good advice, will do.
>>273850>in the woods, nobody will hear Tim scream.
>>273855Besides axe murderers are the least of your worries anyway.Just saying.
>>273636I don''t get it.
>>273861Arbor means tree, harboring criminals is a serious offense. It's a pun. LAUGH.

Mom, you have terrible taste in men. Seriously.
I have spent the entire weekend sewing an ugly blanket out of discarded t-shirts. The 4th week in a row nobody invited me anywhere and nobody wanted to come over here. At this rate I'll be a master seamstress before the year is done!

Bunch of dumb, teenaged skanks were sitting across from me on the bus, playing shitty music on their cellphones. They started acting like shits when I told them to turn their crappy shit down; hurled childish insults at me. They seemed to find irritating me to be utterly enthralling and went out of their way to act like jackasses and bother me, I eventually just started telling them to fuck off.I take solace in knowing that they're the type to get knocked up before they leave high school and are most likely going to waste the rest of their lives raising a batch of illegitimate mongoloids.Is it too much to ask people behave like human beings on the bus?
>>273936Oh that's cool then.

>>273977Man, how did you end up so cool?
>>273978Aww shucks, I like you too :3I dunno. I think I just try with all my might to be nothing like the rest of my family. I can say they were good parents in the sense that they gave me an example of what not to grow up to be.Also my dad has told me on multiple occasions that getting married would be the stupidest thing I could do. It is kind of depressing to hear that from a man who is still married.Sage for pity party.
Hm.Yes.
>>273982Gaaah that has to hurt.
My kitten just spilt water on my tablet and its started freaking out.God.Dammit.
>>273975To be fair, I've only seen 4 of those movies because I was alive when they came out and I only know the James Bond movies because my dad's a huge fan. But Connery's been retired for, what, 8 years now? And he's never done anything really worth mocking/over repeating in pop culture. I can see why kids wouldn't know who he is.

>Major paper and 2 tests in the 2 subjects I am struggling with the most all due on the same day.
son of a whore, I forgot about my independent study project that's due tomorrow. and I have two places left to interview, but they haven't called me back, nor have any of the other ten or twelve restaurants I've left messages at. Clearly the only thing for me to do is lick surfaces in public restrooms until I get horribly sick
>My mom's leaving my dad>it's all my fault
>>274014How can it all be your fault? Even if something you did was a catalyst, happy people don't just leave each other because of someone else, there have to have been other trying factors involved.
>>274016Er, just to clarify because tone is hard to read in text, not trying to sound like a dick, I just don't like it when people beat themselves up unnecessarily.
>>274014Look, I obviously don't know you that well, I mean it's not like we know each other IRL or speak on a regular basis. But from what I do know, something like that can't be your fault. You've been incredibly accommodating to their wishes at the cost of your own personal happiness. So while I don't know the specifics I think that, and the way you've spoken about your relationship with your parents, tells volumes about your character and ways of reacting to them. Truth be told, it's probably no one's fault. Like the Man in Black says, I don't like it, but I guess things happen that way.Don't be so hard on yourself.
>>274017>>274019Maybe your parents were just upset you aren't Will Smith?But really, Squid and Askal covered it perfectly. Things like this are never as black and white for there to be any place for blame. It's gonna be tough, but there's no need to be a martyr for it. Good luck getting through it, bro.But being Will Smith wouldn't hurt any.
>>274017Don't worry, you didn't sound like a dick, Coela. :3I was the catalyst. After leaving it alone since my misadventures overseas, my gender issues came up again at dinner Friday. My mom left, and texted my dad tonight asking for certain furniture she wants to take with her. My dad meanwhile has said that if I'm not his son then I'm not his child, and that my refusal to be a normal boring straight person, marry some chick and have her pop out his grandchildren until her uterus falls out is a "fuck you" to him and his father and his father's father. Given his and his father and grandfather's alcoholism, and my aunt's admonition at a family reunion about our family "havin' trouble with the liquor", has me thinking "I'm doing future generations a favor". He keeps obsessing over the sexual mechanics of it-"WELL, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? TAKE IT UP THE BUTT FROM SOME GIRL WITH A DILDO OF SOME SORT? HAVE HER BLOW YOUR OR HANDJOB YOU? YOU'VE GOT A DICK! YOU'RE A MAN! USE IT!" (complete with him grabbing his junk and thrusting his hips like a bald, obese Michael Jackson)-and of course me wanting to "chop off my dick". Because, you know, that's what I'm supposed to do. And both of them have voiced apprehension about me watching my little brother because "You might do something to him! We've seen you get mad and hit him, if you're alone you might abuse him some other way!" Yeah, because my being transgendered automatically makes me want to rape obese children with Down Syndrome when I'm angry. Uh huh.God fucking damn it. I mean, on the one hand, it's painful, incredibly fucking painful. These are my parents. They brought me into this world, fed me, lavished me with nice things and expensive medical treatment, and have been my advocates and helpers. I want to love them, and them to love me. But on the other hand, I'm finally seeing that their love does indeed have limits, that it wasn't as strong or as pure or unconditional as I'd always assumed. They really can be vile, hurtful, selfish, petty, and downright unpleasant people, and now I'm wondering "Is it such a big loss? Would I love these people if I wasn't their child?"
>>274024I'm there!
>>274023It's a really tough situation to be in and I will concede it's one of the few times I can't just move for a case of TAKE IT LIKE A MAN (ha ha... I'm sorry) because when it's something like that with your family and your life "deal with it" isn't very good advice. I'll admit though, and this may just be because I'm a terribly self centred person, but I think if you spend your life trying to pander to other people you're ultimately going to lead a very frustrating and unfulfilling one. Sometimes you are the only one you can trust not to cock you over and you have to make those big life-changing decisions add up to something that makes you happy. People come and go, but you're with you forever.BUT I don't think you should blame yourself for your parents. If they're trying to use you as an excuse to blow up over their own strained marriage issues, they are being complete dicks about it and not thinking about what they're doing to you at all.
>>274023I've been through the 'parents separated' thing, man. It's not fun, but the wounds heal. I still prefer silence and only occasional contact with dad to his punching holes in the walls and drinking.As for blaming yourself? Well.. yes and no. From the sounds, they just fell off the trolley on their way to No Surprises Gated Suburbia, where Jesus speaks through their Reagan era pastor and everything makes sense with a minimum of effort on their part. And what they don't control, they don't care much for.It's only "your fault" if you look at it a certain, blinder wearing way. They're less than enlightened, less than tolerant and less than willing to concede on their values for you. And they feel strongly enough about it that what you want and what they want are crashing headlong into each other. It doesn't make them right, and it doesn't necessarily make them wrong, but that's how it is. Their feelings are as valid as yours, even if they have less right to tell you what to do with your life.It's a bitter position to be in, but the ball is in your court. If you choose to go further on the path you're going, you'll get what you want (sorta) but alienate your family entirely. The family that has handed you everything and despite misfortunes, setbacks and fuckups, probably been there for you unconditionally most of the time. If you choose your family's wishes, you leave behind the path of being a girl and trade it up.If you choose gender reassignment surgery and pursue that, you give them up. And that's it. You get a facsimile of what you want, but it won't be the real thing. And it might not satisfy you in the way you hope it will. You wouldn't be the first to feel that way, you wouldn't be the last. If you choose to continue and step up your game in this direction, the probability of your parents reconciling with you on this issue drops, it doesn't rise. They're not forcing you to agree with their position with a push, but they don't want to see their son try and be their daughter, either. But the last thing you were wondering, if it would be worth it? They've made their choice. They've made that decision and laid it on the table. All love is conditional, all love does have limits. What you want does break that ceiling for them. Were I you, I'd choose family over gender reassignment. They love you more than androgel ever will.
>>274023shit, Tora. that's awful what your family is doing to you.Your parents relationship is their own thing to deal with, and you really mustn't blame yourself. They're just using you as an excuse, as they obviously don't have a problem with making you feel like crap. The thing about parental love is it's always conditional, no matter what they say. Everyone has limits, and it really sucks and it's awful but it's true. If they're gonna cut you out of the family just for being who you are, you have to cut your losses and move on, find yourself a real family that may not be blood-related, but will love you and support you.sorry if I sound like a dick or if I'm speaking out of place.
>>274043>If you choose to go further on the path you're going, you'll get what you want but alienate your family entirely.>If you choose gender reassignment surgery and pursue that, you give them up. And that's it. >Were I you, I'd choose family over gender reassignment. They love you more than androgel ever will.NononononoThings do not work this way. I've been helping people in the LGBT community for years, and I can assure you that nothing about this absolute.Tora Dora, we already talked bro, but never think of things as black and white absolutes. Life is not like this, neither should you think that way.
>>274046I've been in correspondence with more than a share, myself. Exceptions exist. I do not count ToraDora's family among them. :(
>>274048Every case is unique, and generalization, especially in something as sensitive as LGBT relations only sits to harm more than it does good.No matter what the situation, to make a call as blatant as if you go forward, you lose your family is more than stupid, it's harmful.It's sad to know that in most scenarios things don't always turn out for the best, and often that's true, but that's not your call, or anybody's call to make but TD and family.
Conference over. Home after Crisis of Infinite Debauchery. So much Science, but soooo much fucking fun. I'm exhausted but I'm going to list everything we did that I can remember. Ride a big boat and drink fuckwing Bloody Marys. Land in a remote harbor and hike two miles with full packs (BE A MAN) and 20+ cases of booze to a slightly more remote research facility, (My lab bought lots of quality booze for everyone to enjoy), unlimited free snorkling and kayaking in a nature preserve, drinking, presentations, drinking, working on slides forever, have conference wide drinking games during powerpoint presentations, present using a pirate sword as a pointer, get round of loud applause for my business, drinking, drinking, night snorkling, playing with fluorescent diatoms (mislabeled as fluorescent plankton), go skinny dipping with hot science types in the ocean water, flip of the pier like a naked boss, drink, break into my own cabin because some idiot locked the doors despite the fact that we didn't get keys, and then get called cute by lots of attractive people.Damn it feels good to be a gangster. Also my boss said that he thinks I can be a good researcher and that my presentation was money. ignore the fact that before my presentation, i was scared so shitless by the quality of other people's Science Fu compared to mine that I was plotting ways to quit Science and leave Catalina Island. I pushed through because quitting is for pussies who don't believe in themselves. Now I have more future collaborators who think I'm as awesome as they are. Now I feel like I can really do this. Also, my lab is fucking awesome. Did I mention the jokes? So many jokes. Fuck.
>>274054i need to proofread. goddamn.
>>274057Fuck the haters
>>274023>find yourself a real family that may not be blood-related, but will love you and support you. This and Squid's advice are the best here. Your parents using your emotions as blackmail for each other and as an excuse to harp at you just for existing is really low. No one should be reviled for an inherent aspect of who they are. Do your best to stay out of emotional harm's way and avoid the fallout the best you can.Don't get caught in the middle, be okay.b(._.)
>>274053I'm not making the decision. I'm highlighting the fact that his family has already made theirs. Sure, I guess it's -possible- that after going under the knife, they just might come around to his rhythm of thinking. The same way it's possible ToraDora might just give up belief, sensation or interest in transexuality (lol puritans) from where his parents are standing.I'm in no way suggesting submission to their whims will keep them together. They just sound more like the setting for tragedy than understanding.
>>274023it's not your fault.it's really not your fault, TD.
Hai Guyz, what's goin' on in dis thread. I decided to consume some of my medical whacky tobakky, and watch "King Kong Escapes" to ease my pain. I feel much better now.>>274060Okay, Ramey baby, I not necessarily planning on going under the knife down there. I am well aware of the risks, and the immense pain, and potential for not enjoying the results as much as I'd expected, and again, immense pain. It is my sincere hope that in the next decade or two that improvements and advancements will be made. But I'm not that genital dysphoric. It's more "the whole picture" and "wanting to like what I see in the mirror". "Liking what I have down there" is third on that list, and I'm willing to delay it just in case there's a major improvement in the next two decades.>>274059Thanks Bea. *hugs* I mean, no matter what I say or do at this point, I don't think my parents are going to be getting back together unless my dad goes to an alcohol clinic. And even then, my mom still has her issues. She confessed to me once that she was sexually molested by her grandad, and that the fallout over that (although no charges were pressed, lol family loyalty and 1960's middle-class morality) caused a major rift with her dad's family. And her dad died when she was eleven. And she went through the same brutal police brutality I went through in a foreign country. So she has her issues up in head, most likely. So yeah, this isn't my fault. Thanks Ferrous Fellow. *hugs* You've always been a real bro. I've been mulling it over, and yes, I do have my options. I could always move in with aunts/uncles. I'm sure some would accept me. Or get charity from a LGBT charity/scholarship. Or something. Sorry, polite sage for tl;dr intoxicated ramblings. I'll shut up now. <3

I got asked to leave another class today because I couldn't stop laughing. I was giggling because the guy on the audio tape sounded like Crackovia's Cristiano, but then the teacher asked me to stand up and explain what was so funny and I just lost it.I get slightly hysterical around this time of the month. Better than turning into a dragon I guess?
Is it wrong that after a few weeks with no internet, the only thing I really miss is plus4 IRC, porn and a mediocre webcomic?

>>274142you and bones make me happy in my soul
This is what the doll looks like. Spider informs me the hat is too hard for proper cuddling, and that makes me a sad panda.
>>274146Note to self: Always test-cuddle plushies.
considering lying on my Independent Study report right now...basically, the owners of a small and little-known breakfast place right by my house are bitches to get a hold of, but they said I could do my interview with them on Wednesday. My project is due today, and I've already left them a message but no dice. do I just... lie? Call around desperately hoping one more restaurant will let me talk to a hiring manager or chef within three hours? Suddenly come down with an even worse fever than the one I've already got? there is no way for me to not be screwed here.
>>274146>the hat is too hard for proper cuddlingThen it's...just hard enough for a different type of cuddling ehhhhehhhhehhhhh B)
>>274152Funny story, when I told her I'd bought her something, one of her guesses as to what it was happened to be 'teddy bear hiding a vibrator.' Maybe next time.
So here's a question: why is Mindwipe permabanned?
>>274157repeated ban evasion
>>274159What were the original bans for, then?
>>274157Mindwipe technically evaded a relatively shot ban from a single board.Ban Evasion is a Permaban no matter what the circumstances. If you get Permabanned you talk to Anonex. Mindwipe has done this, it's being worked on.
>>274162what a derp
Words cannot describe the level of frustration I am experiencing right now, I'm headed down a one way road to a panic attack.My only outlet has been destroyed and I don't have any company or anything to distract me from driving myself crazy. I don't like feeling stuck. I hate being trapped. I can't stand stagnation. I can't concentrate on anything and my mind is switching tracks a mile a minute. fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.
>>274166Go outsideAt least go for a walk.
>>274162I was wondering why everyone seemed to be acting so nice as of recent.
I was almost permabanned once. I say almost, because the evasion was unintentional and straightened out after the two week suspension.All I can say is check every thread you've posted in lately for them big red letters if you happen to be using a different computer.
There is a customer service job listed on Craigslist with 22 dollars an hour compensation.I have a hard time believing that it isn't a scam, but hnnnngh dat money. Debating applying for it.
>>274178Dude, go for it. If it turns out to be a scam you can walk away from it. If it's for real-real then, well, enjoy getting more money per hour than I get per news article! :D
>>274162Aww.
>>274178Link?Two years of job hunting have honed my bullshit detectors.
Kitty loev Layton hat.
>>274185She's getting to be such a big girl :3c
And this is for you, Bonesy!Pretend Layton is you!
oh, craigslist. why would anyone need a prep cook with a business degree? and what chef with years of experience would take a minimum-wage part-time job?
>>274184Well, it's been flagged for removal, so I take it my hunch was right.
>people still take craigslist seriouslyahawhttp://www.craigslist.org/about/best/chi/942873935.html
>>274190Generally any job that pays more than 40% over minimum wage is going to be fake/scam/shitballs. And usually 30-40% over is in the telemarketing only sector. Because once you get in that pay rate and beyond, there is a reason they're paying you, which is a specific set of skills - ie something you went to school FOR. Or it's a manager job that you worked up to. Very few companies will toss out that dough to Joe Somebody for doing non-specific work. So best case scenario it's a terrible telemarketing job where you have insane quotas and want to kill yourself after a week. Or it's a job like what Maya got where it's loopholed with 'contract work, get payment per new customer, if you do it right then you'll get the equivalent but until then you're going to get 13bucks for ten hours total'Worst case you show up for the interview and get raped. It's one of those 'send us your information and a blank cheque and we'll send you work and put the money right in your account! Oh wait, I mean we'll just take all your money and vanish'
Tomorrow I'm going on a date. It's not the first time I've gone out with this girl, but this time she's bringing her identical twin along. We're going to be taking a trapeze lesson.I'm torn between being totally stoked, and nervous as hell over making an ass of myself in front of her sister.
Going to be playing this at 9pm EST here: http://www.livestream.com/thebestavideoconfessionCome watch.
>>274193Yeah, it was like customer service, so I was hoping they respected the kinds of things you have to go through when dealing with idiots :II couldn't do contract work either, though. I am not a good salesperson. I don't like pressuring people into buying things they don't need. It's why they took me off the sales floor at my store and put me in the copy department where the only things I have to offer people are things that legitimately will make their stuff come out better.
>>274196Probably going to stream the new episode of Venture bros. after the movieJust 'cause.
>my social circle
Researching suicide methods. Trying to find something either mildly painful but quick-acting, or low-to-no pain and short (i.e. within a day, before anyone could really counteract it.)
>>274201Don't do that.
>>274201
>>274201At the very least, look up escape methods for your current life that involve you doing something amazing.You can run away from the world without having to end everything. Think of the opportunities.
>>274201Whatever it is, you will get over it and your life will go on and ten years from now you will not care about whatever it is. This is just a hiccup of negativity in your life and you need to man it out instead of using a permanent action for a temporary problem.
>>274203Read about that, but the site said it was very hard to obtain. Didn't know you could get it at jeweler's, I'll have to try that.>>274205My life is a travesty of mistakes and failed potential. Like hell I can do something amazing; I have a number of personality traits that, when combined, pretty much guarantee failure at every endeavor.>>274208Except that it's a problem that has been ongoing for almost a decade. It's not a temporary problem, because I am the problem, and there's only one solution for that.
>>274201http://www.givesmehope.com/Don't do this.Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
>>274196>>27419813 minutesYou'll have to excuse the sumo
>>274210Yeah, and the solution is to change you. Taking the easy way out won't fix anything.

>>274213>the solution is to change youIf only possible.
>>274216It is. I'll skip the motivational bullshit, but dammit man, you think you're the only one on this site who's considered suicide? If I could pull my shit out of the gutter you damn well can.
>>274216Anything is possible, idiot.
It's some kind of fluke of nature that I'm not a woman or super gay. I love stuffed animals, women's clothing (the fashion of, not the wearing of), princesses, romantic comedies, female vocalists, cuddling,gossip, shopping....what happen?
>>274216Listen to Chappy. Listen to everyone else here, too. They're all good people and life isn't easy for anyone. Don't forget that. Life isn't easy for anyone. You can at least make it worth your while. You can.>>274226I think we'd get along.
>>274226My guess would be a mix of environmental factors, such as upbringing, the people you spent the most time around during your childhood, and possibly a funky hormone balance. Though I doubt anybody's gonna call you on the snuggling thing.
>>274226Same here. Were you also raised by a single mother? But I'm still manly enough.
>>274210dont do anything stupid or ill kill you
>>274226Clone, my own, etc! Let's go to Nordstrom's! :D
I swear I just posted here complaining about my lack of being tired...?
>>274235and I posted about having a date with twins. Weird what people pick up on instead, isn't it?
>>274216Awww, Autonymoose, as somehow who felt like my life was falling apart, and that I was backed into a corner with no exit but death (my own or my parents), I can tell you that things will get better. *hugs*
>>274237What? How can you say something like that? Things may get worse. "Nothing is impossible" works both ways. And guess what? That's kind of awesome in it's own right.
>>274236But ... just ... it's ... it's not there.I posted it, started reading about Jonestown for some reason, and then when I came back there was nothing. No idea what is going on.
>>274239In that case, it was probably eaten by a Grue.>>274238That.. really doesn't help much. You could at least have thrown in something corny like "At least when you hit rock bottom, you've got somewhere to brace your feet" or some shit like that.
>>274241I thought it was "when you hit rock bottom, the only way to go is up"?
>>274242Hell if I know. I can never remember these sayings.
>>274241But that's bullshit. I feel the least it could do is admire the smoothness of the walls it can't climb. Who knows, maybe then it'll see their just dirt.
>>274245Alright, I can see how that would be cool from a geologist's perspective, but the point still stands.
Eating Panda Express for dinner.I ordered MI FUCK
>>274232I was not. I was raised by video games and tv.
>>274196aw....stupid work...I should try to find a day job.Then I can get fired from that because I am inept, hooray...
I just like, backhanded some guy who grabbed me on the train. In retrospect I wish I tripped him and kicked him in the ribs, it seems like wasted potential when you wear steel toed boots.
>>274255You should quit before they can fire you, that'll show 'em.
>>274256Your instincts were still good.
>>274256Next time, aim for the throat.
>>274253The best thing on the menu.
So, I recorded an interview I did today, edited it all up, and am quite proud of what I've done. The article goes up Wednesday, but I thought I'd share the Tindeck file with all of youze.http://tindeck.com/listen/fyhd
>today's shoot
I spoke to my boss today and told her my aspirations to return to Subway and get away from this murderous night shift. She was not pleased, but I'm glad I got the fuck out before she started pushing me into more days which would have ended with me hating everyone and losing touch with everyone I even remotely care about. I like being a Sandwich Artist, god damn it.So fuck her. I'm going to be the best god damn employee for the next six days and then I can totally go back to Sandwich Craft and not worry about her scorn. Low-Stress always beats out High-Stress in my book. No more stress eating or picking at my skin or random bouts of depression or raging at the smallest thing. I can finally go back to being me.Thanks for listening, SYM thread.
I kinda wanna start watching some animes.But.....I hate anime tropes.
>>274302Too bad.Also it's Kamen Rider time for Jazz. Jazz, go watch some Kamen Rider.
I get new glasses today! What kind of frames should I get?
>>274188>implying I'm not constantly pretending to be Professor Layton
>>274306I will watch Clannad first....shutup.
Also Sigma if you don't lay the pipe on both of those girls you're not getting a birthday present.
>>274309I was going to make a joke about you hating anime tropes and then picking something by Key to watch, but then I found out there was an Irish folk group called Clannad and I'm kind of worried about how much Irish folk music there is in my life lately.
>>274309Considering your hate for anime tropes, wouldn't it make more sense to start with something that isn't an anime? Like, oh, I don't know, Kamen Rider W?>>274310Bones, you're damn right I'm going after both. If the internet has taught me anything, it's to aim high.
>>274302JAZZ! JAZZ! HEY, JAZZ! :D WATCH THIS!
>My face when I just woke up, haven't had my coffee yet, and am getting blasted with unnecessary information.
Ugh, tired, slow minded and uninspired. I'll blame the weather, everythings grey and rain. Trying to overdose on Vitamin D to get higher brain functions back online.
>>274311>>274314I have watched tons of anime before, then I stopped.Now I wanna watch Clannad because it'll make me sad, despite the tropes in it.And... I dunno.Kamen Rider.... it's just not my thing.>>274317I HAVE been meaning to watch this if only for scarred-eye-patch lady.
So, I live in an apartment complex. I also happen to live above some hoarders. There are holes in my bathroom wall's because they've been worn down by water damage(not my fault) and the owner still has done nothing about it. So, because the people below me are disgusting, filthy hoarders, maggots and cockroaches thrive in their apartment. And sometimes those cockroaches decide to take a vacation up to my apartment. I've complained to my grandparents(They're the managers and can evict these fucking people) but they kind of brush it off because I understand that they have other shit to deal with(Whatever, I can understand). They also smoke weed erryday and it exits their bedroom window and enters mine because I keep my air conditioner on and it sucks it all in.But then these fucking people have the gall to be sneaky fucks and go to the owner of the apartment complex directly and complain about how we(read: my neighbors and parents) flick ashes onto their lawnchair(which they never even use because they smoke inside), which is totally their fault because they decided to put their chair right where all of the ashes end up going no matter what, and when somebody moved it, the hoarders had a fucking tantrum and put it back and about how we're too loud(What the fuck, we all live right next to the highway, how the hell are WE too loud?).So my apartment is also infested with cockroaches, maggots soon following I'm sure. I'm pretty much getting daily contact highs(which wouldn't be that bad if the smell wasn't awful). And I'm getting a warning because I play music during the afternoon through my speakers sometimes.Can't I report this shit to somebody?TL;DR FUCK HOARDERS I'M PISS.
>>274321I feel the exact same way. I need a cup of coffee in the worst way.And then I need another coffee.And maybe a piece of fruit.
>>274326I forget people use coffee this way.
>>274327Coffee cravings are a butt.It's like having your brain replaced with cotton.I tried to drink some juice today instead but it's not helping.
>>274324Dat sucks dawg.
>>274329I just drink coffee regularly because I like the taste.
>brush every day.>floss every day.>avoid refined sugars- soda, candy, acidic foods or drink.>Chew gum with xylitol as an active ingredient (trident.)>recaldent too, if possible.>chew it for 45 minutes after it loses all flavor, becoming just an excuse to produce saliva.>take vitamins>eat good food.>sunlight>EIGHT GOD DAMNED CAVITIES. Enamel corroding.It's not fair. It's not fucking fair. Fuck it. Time to scrub it and surrender to state insurance.
>>274332>brush once every week or so>never had a single cavity in my life

>>274338damn, I really enjoyed the six episodes I watched of that show before I completely forgot about it and stopped watching anime. Has there been a second season or anything?
>>274340>Has there been a second season or anything?>second season>Baccano!...;A;
>>274341maybe somehow, some way, we will get the novels.

>>274345 enjoy your chav
Dodged a bullet there, toof.
>>274336I didn't build the pool, I just swim in it. :(God damn. Stuff like this just makes me mad. I put in more effort and thought in trying to deal with problems and situations, and wind up in worse condition than people that neglect this shit completely. It's like agreeing to take on unpaid overtime and then getting pay reduction.The only solution is to stop giving a fuck.

>>274348Oh Bicks, you should see his DAT CANARY ISLAND ASS. :(
I saw this in an article on animal behaviour and thought of you guys.
My brain feels like cotton.
>>274354But I can't, oh well D:
I'm at the commons at my college......sitting next to some rednecks......one of them is Black...a black man...wearing a rebel flag hat and drives the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard.
>>274358You met Uncle Rukus' long estranged child.
>>274358Not rednecks.Hipsters.That shit is Ironic as fuck.
fdhjewhruer I just stepped on a dragonflywhy didn't you move dragonflywhy
>>274361No, no. These are rednecks. I'm in Georgia. There's a BIG difference between hipsters and rednecks down here.
>>274362You monster.
>Nils Hamm's homepage was updated>artgasm all over the place
>>274358>implying anyone driving the General Lee isn't instantly badical.
so it turns out my classes are two cities away
Why are online cover letter tips/examples so shit?
even though whenever I make mistakes I just get on with it and solve the problem I still feel like a useless waste of a human and seriously consider killing myselfguess I've got brain problems
my appetite has been scarce lately. Even more so as days go on...this is bothering me...
I just ate so much haggis. So much fucking haggis. I had it in two courses. It was delicious. I feel like I should go roaming in the gloaming or something.
>>274366This. I understand the Confederate flag can be a pretty iffy subject but DAT CAR
>>274358hey now, the General Lee is one fly ass motherfucker.
>>274371You're so Scottish sometimes you shit tartan. <3
>>274375Fun fact: my house used to be all tartan downstairs. Tartan carpet, tartan wallpaper - everything. It was glorious and tacky as hell.
>>274376But can you play the bagpipes?
>>274378Ehhh...probably not. I haven't tried in a while. It's very hard, you know!
I know how hypocritical this is going to sound but everyone in my Japanese class is a huge otaku. I came in to them all talking about Bleach, one guy had yugioh cards, and the guy I wwas sitting next to had a pink ds with lucky star charms.Also I played with an iPad and they are damn useless. What was that color ereader thing you guys were talking about in /tek/
>>274380Get on that right now or I'm revoking your Scottish-ness.
UGH, today is not my day. Only good part so far was closing the elevator door on some frat douche's face. I'm going to stare at pretty fashion until I feel better.
>old lab partner has broken up with his long-term girlfriend>aw what a wee shame>predator mode activated>>274384No fuck youuuuu.
>>274388
Some guy I'm talking to keeps asking me if I've lost weight and if I work out.Apparently this vegetarian thing is working nicely.
>shitty day>BACON IN THE FREEZER>REAL BACON NOT THAT TURKEY CRAPhow did this even get in the house, no one in my family buys bacon
>>274396He is in heat and wishes to bone you, quick perform your mating dance before the passion is gone.
>>274398You have been visited by the magical Bacon Fairy!
>>274356I been there, man. Try breathing a lot.
My hips are killing me, the backs of my knees are sore and I ripped the skin on both hands. >THIS HAS BEEN THE BEST DAY EVER.
For the first time in a long while I feel good. Nothing crazy, no headaches, no completely useless sadness. It's wonderful.
>>274405
>>274404>I ripped the skin on both hands. oh my god what HOW
>>274407babby hand is babby
>>274408I had trapeze lessons. The pole ripped the skin off my palms
>>274306In b4 Jazz develops a super sentai fetish.
>>274414In before rant about how Kamen Rider isn't Super Sentai, but after videos of Skulls kickass fight/ moonwalk.
>>274414eh
>>274417It isn't? Whoop.Forgive my newfaggotry. I've been into this franchise less than a month.
>>274425*puts on professor hat*Ranger shows are the only thing that counts as Super Sentai. Riders come under the more general category of Tokusatsu.
