No, you ******. also Bring up bestiality again and be infracted.

I didn't bring it up, Sentinal did.

And why on earth is talking about bestiality an infraction worthy topic. I hope you're not bringing your personal opinions into your forum moderation.

 

[Luigitoilet]

"want me to send you some bestiality porn oh lol can we do that on a pg-13 site" shows me that you are not quite capable of handling a discussion on the topic. if we were in the light house and you offered to send someone a rom or emulator to prove a point, you would not get away half as lightly.

I don't care who brought it up. I gave Sentinel an actual warning for his post. Drop it, or take it to a forum where you can seriously debate the topic.

I spilled a little bit of dr pepper on my laptop and it messed up some of the keys, so I gotta send it in to replace the keyboard. Gonna be about 150-200 dollars, fun

 

[choknater]

ouch. what is the actual proper way to clean a laptop keyboard?

 

[OmegaXXII]

I don't think there's a proper way to clean liquid lol..since it's ruins the circuitry?

Yeah, I just got my HP laptop yesterday, mainly for music and stuff.

It bothers me that the only times I have ever gotten a job interview has been when headhunter see my resume online and then contact a company. I'm not sure if I've ever even received a call back for I job I applied for. It kinda just takes the steam out of my drive to apply for all the job relates to my field.

Maybe try thinking outside the box, do you live near the country? You could ask a local farmer if he needs any help tending to livestock. Also if your resume is lacking, you could try volunteering at a nearby animal shelter. You could also put up some craigslist/newspaper classifieds offering your services as a petsitter. Good luck!

 

[global-wolf]

What's the point of getting perfect grades and having a bunch of extracurriculars and sucking up to teachers in high school, so that you can go to a good college and then... what?

I know in my head why, but I can't feel it... ugh.

I know you mean well but I don't get your post. I'm not interested in farming or working with animals. I don't know what the problem is, maybe I need a more refined cover letter, or maybe I need to remove my college course work from my resume. I hate this dumb economy.

 

[Gatlin]

Honestly I'm not entirely sure. For my situation though, it can't be cleaned and work again. I guess the liquid messed up the circuits cuz I'll press 0 and get a Q, or enter and get an enter/space/3... So it's gotta be replaced no matter what

 

[John2k4]

Laptop keyboards aren't that hard to replace...

Yes
Just ordered a new one today, so basically just awaiting it's arrival at the moment. Sucks having online classes and no computer nearby to use.

I have mono. My throat hurts like hell.

Muhahaha just finished all my hw due tomorrow, started it at 9 because of my concert. It was fun even though our performance wasn't the best, but now I'm going to be way off my sleep schedule.

But on a good note, it's a good feeling to get it done.

Mom happened to see an e-mail receipt i'd received from a sex toy store... ugh LOL

It definitely does suck. Pretty much the only way to avoid it is to win the lottery.

I would assume not talk to them.....

I'm not even kidding. If you're done something really bad, then it's best you temporarily heed their wishes for now. If you've done something trivial and they're overreacting by telling you not to talk to them, then they're probably not worth being your friend.

THISSS!!!!! U are so right just sucks to lose a, really good friend

 

[frotaz37]

Make sure you don't just tell yourself that what you did was trivial and use that as an excuse to avoid checking yourself.

Cause I mean...what's trivial to you might not be to your friend.

 

[Cherished Doll]

True. Ill just respect the wishes. Sucks bc that person is going through something tough right now and I really wish I could b there.

Again? Is this the same guy from before?

I'm in a strong disagreement with eighteenspikes. You should try to see if a friendship is fixable before moving on.

However if you guys are at the point of breaking it off again, then there is probably something wrong with the relationship itself. Even if you guys talk it over and patch things up the same thing is likely to happen again. You need to figure out why you keep fighting and talk to him about it.

But make an effort to reach out to him, at best you'll fix the relationship, at worst things will be like they are right now and you won't be talking to each other. Nothing sucks more than looking back and thinking you should have fixed it instead of just letting it die.

 

[Cherished Doll]

Last time it was my boyfriend this time it's the best one lol

I agree that it does suck to not try but I'm to that point like the line as been crossed and I've tried enough imo

 

[Claire Diviner]

Snow, winter, cold. I hate it. This is probably already known by now, but New England was hit hard by a freak-of-nature snowstorm that caused unprecedented power outages. I was one of those people hit. Thankfully, I was also one of the lucky ones who had power restored fairly quickly (after literally a day and a half). It was hell; no light, no TV, no fridge, nothing. I couldn't even go out to a friend's place (one of the lucky few who still had power) due to the risk of downed power lines, seeing as an elderly man in my town died from a downed line.

Worse was the fact that my grandmother being as old as she is, had a hard time dealing with the lack of power as well. No food to cook, no light to see with which was exacerbated by the fact that - being the end of October - it gets dark after 5pm, and let me tell you, trying to piss in the dark with a barely working flashlight other than a dying cell phone is not pleasant in the least. It has been an hour give-or-take since my neighborhood had its power restored after a day and a half, and as much hell as that was, it makes me feel bad for those who were hit harder, namely those who won't get power sooner than Wednesday or even more than a week from now. My best wishes go out to them.

In hindsight, that time without power makes me realize that we really take power for granted; just a simple flick of a switch, and we can power up light, turn to the TV and see what's happening around the world, cook food, etc.. All I know is that I couldn't be happier to have power... and internet, but I'm more happier for my grandmother and the other elderly people in my neighborhood - heaven knows they need it more than I do. As if my hatred for snow and winter was bad enough, this storm solidifies my malice toward it.

Well the amount of effort you put into fixing a friendship should be proportionate to how important the friendship was to you. So if the friendship was never so important to you then it really is ok for you not try and fix it (I made the mistake thinking you were closer than that).

As for me, there are three things bothering me right now

(in no order)

1) I'm falling back into old bad habits even though I've been making more effort to better myself. I'm very lazy and I often don't care about myself. I've been trying to do things that I know I need to even when I don't want to. If I don't feel like walking 15 minutes to buy winter clothes then I'll do it anyways, or if I don't feel like taking out my garbage I'll do it anyways. But even so sometimes I fall back into my self-destructive vices and it just kinda sucks. I don't feel hopeless yet, but it is making me lose faith in myself.

2) I am realizing now that my nature to playful troll my close friends has resulted in them getting a distorted view of me. Some of my friends are now telling me that I'm arrogant and don't know anything about women, which is kinda how I act while I'm trolling. It's weird cuz they know I'm joking(they joke like that with me too) but still they can't seem to separate that from my personality. This bothers me cause I feel like hardly anyone understands me, and now I'm seeing that it's kinda my own fault.

3) One of my bosses has been nothing short of amazing to me. She hired me for my sake and not hers. She is giving me time off from work to built my portfolio, and she even bought me a new laptop charger and battery(wtf), and just this week I'\ have dented her 7000$ piece of equipment and damaged the cart I borrowed from her. I feel awful about it, and I'm worried that she may be(and rightfully so) getting upset with me. *sighs*

 

[Grandeza]

Had to take my cat to the vet late at night last night cause she was really sick. They gave her some shot and hopefully she'll be okay now.

Also a bit upset that I made no costume plans for Halloween this year. Planning to make a Danny Phantom costume for next year though.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Anyone ever want a second chance at something?

Life always gives me a second chance and I blow it just as bad as the first. Even when prior to that I go on about wanting a second chance and not failing he next time.

 

[Jasou]

I feel lonely right now, does anybody wanna hug?

 

[Strife]

Things would be a lot simpler if they just fired me from my job.
