Same here. I don't begrudge them their ads (it's income, after all) but every now and then there's one that I cannot stand. Like Skittles. And that one for Target I hear on Pandora. So much hate.

I should be a prostitute according to Jezebel? Huh. The message I was getting was "it's my body and I decide what I do with it sexually" personally. And before you scream harlot at me, I'm a 25-year old virgin and I am more confident in my sexuality and my decision to abstain until I'm comfortable with a partner…

I do not understand how people can just walk up and start touching someone's belly like that. I wouldn't dare touch a pregnant woman's stomach without permission. It's terribly intrusive.

Sinkholes terrify me. And just recently a friend linked me an article about the doors to hell in Russia and I shall never sleep soundly again. The only thing worse than a giant pit in the ground is a giant pit in the ground that is on fire.

Yeah... by the time my first turn to submit a poem for workshop came around I was bitter enough that I decided to write something no one could critique. So I wrote a poem in C++. Spite does not make for good motivation but it can sometimes be satisfying.

I wonder how professors manage to not snap while teaching. I'm sure they get one or two of those every single semester and if it's annoying for the rest of us...

Anytime I hear someone writes cards I just think of that movie "30 Days of Summer." Personally, I always draw a blank on what to write inside cards and can only think of things like: "You never bought me an Easy-Bake Oven when I was a kid but I got you a gift ANYWAY so can we just move on with the trite birthday…

My roommate had a classmate in her creative classes (can't remember what they were exactly, aside from in the English department) that thought he was a voice for the female condition and would show up to class in high heels and lingerie. Very arrogant. Very creepy.

Not sure what to think about this. I do consider myself very creative but I'm not terribly arrogant. In fact, I tend to hide away or downplay my creative hobbies. I wonder if this is more a case of arrogance lends more towards self-promotion, while people who are very creative but are not arrogant are often passed…

Yes, that's exactly it, thank you! She had a really good experience there, she says. I told her if the US tried that we'd probably have riots in the streets. ;)

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that does this.

They give a damn because the people in power that make the laws that the people with guns follow give a damn. Idealism is nice, but it's not enough to stop someone from taking your freedom when they've got the legal system on their side.

I -really- wish I could remember the name of the highschool boot camp my friend got sent to. That would blow your mind as well. She messaged me one day saying she'd be offline for the next three months while she's at boot camp. She explained that her number had been drawn in a lottery and she was being sent to a…

Not in Malaysia. You're born into your religion and can only convert to another if you're not Muslim. And if you convert to Islam, you and your children are now Muslim for good. (this is assuming I'm remembering what my Malay friend told me correctly)

Yeah, I found out about this law about eight years ago when I started talking with a girl from Malaysia online. She told me all about how Muslims are not allowed to convert (but you can convert to Islam if you're a different religion) and how your religion is registered with the state. It's usually along racial…

I LOVED those books. Great, now I need to go back and reread them all yet again. Thanks.

I'm not sure how much my armor weighs right now. Most of my weight is in my helm or my shield, as I borrow a war shield and my unit sized those for men. It's a bit heavy and if anything slows me down, its going to be that. I want to redo my armor to make it easier to maintain and wear, but it's still better than my…

I'll let her know that that's straight-out. And thanks guys, I'm sure it'll go fine. Just nervous, understandably so I hope.

Keep this up and I'm gonna have to go hide in the bathroom lest my coworkers question why I'm giggling like a maniac.

This comment made me giggle. The last guy I went out on a date with worked as a security guard. He tried to avoid being seen with me when my disorder started flaring up and showed he could relate to my condition by bitching about how much he hated working with a guy that has epilepsy. Classy.
