I wish I was Andy Falkous and just didn't give a shit about what people thought about me cause I would post like a huge long screed to my band's Myspace but instead I'm managing to balance out my mild disappointment with an endorphin high from the fact that two people I've never met in my life came out to see us! Thanks friends. than ks

[David_Dovey]

Wow Johnny you even care what people think about you on the Internet?

Grow a pair, sonny jim.

[Hat]

Cleaning out my living room in preperation to move out in a month but in the meantime the guy I'm possibly moving in with is leaving his decks, mixer, scratch live gear and midi controller around so we have a fucking INSANE setup rocking at the moment as well as crates and crates of old 80's shit and new-school breaks

oh my

[Zingoleb]

Also: I just hit an insanely high note and hurt myself what the fuck that was kind of awesome but now I'm scared to do it again.

[Jimor]

I am not sure I have ever met a single university student who can say that they haven't had some enrolment experience which made them want to do murders. Hell, when I was in uni that's what happened every flippin' semester.

Oh god, the flashbacks! Financial aid was paid to the school, not to me, but they wouldn't pay until I was enrolled in classes so they'd know whether to pay at full time or part time rates, but if I didn't pay up front, I couldn't enroll via computer beforehand. So every freakin' semester was an exercise in trying to add classes, but you couldn't turn in your add form until ALL the professors signed off on it, but when one took 4 weeks, I then had to petition the dean for the extra late adds, plus all the dept heads. When I got to the math chair, he said to me: "why have you been attending these classes ILLEGALLY?"

He's the one person in my life that if I ran into him randomly one day I'd totally punch in the mouth.

Also that you have some anger management issues.

That might slightly apply to me here, too. I think the occasional justifiable homicide would do much to streamline university/college paperwork.

[Jace]

Have you considered the notion that perhaps you are just not any good?

This crossed my mind, but the 5 stars on all the other songs sort of defied that logic. I just became increasingly frustrated with the game and with my current life situation (no need to go into it here, it is boring and I don't think anyone really cares.) and so I had an outburst of rage, which is pretty rare for me.

[pen]

oh god the week i'm having.  on thursday, i called in sick from work.  realizing i need to get my car inspected since it expired last month, i went to do so.  the inspection place told me they couldn't do it because my registration was expired.  wtf.  i went to my insurance company, paid for the new registration and was told they'd take care of it for me and to pick up my new papers on friday.  thursday night, my plumbing was fucked, so i drove to the train and stayed at jon's for the night.  on friday, i went to get my car and i had a ticket for an expired registration.  it has been expired since april apparently, and i just get a ticket now?  ugh!  of course, by the time i got to my car and got the new registration from the company, it was too late to get it inspected and they're closed on the weekend.  my sister is up from north carolina this weekend, so i went to see her.  while visiting, i got yet another fucking ticket for expired inspection sticker.  at this point, i'm just really pissed off.  headed home, some asshole cuts me off on the highway going only 20mph when I, along with everyone behind me is going around 60-70mph.  i had to screech my brakes not to hit the fuck and he STILL didn't speed up right away.  of course, my child is in the backseat so i'm all panicked about the people behind me hitting me, which they didn't, thank god.  i did see them swerve though.  anyway, it was a really shitty thing and my kid slept right through it, but i was freaked the fuck out and oh man it's been a shitty week.

[Scandanavian War Machine]

fuck fuck fuck it is like 90 degrees right now i think i might actually melt into a gooey, steaming puddle

that might not seem that hot to some of you but bear in mind that i am in western Washington and it was considered apocalyptically hot, like, fifteen degrees ago.

[J-cob9000]

My mother has a broken ankle. She was attempting to catch a rooster for some lady and she slipped in rooster poo and fell and somehow broke her fibula. She is now out of work for 6 weeks or so and has to go for surgery in the morning.
You can laugh at the mental image of her falling. I promise I won't be offended.

also
my tonsil is infected fffffffffuuuuccckkkkk. it hurts like balls.

I sympathize.

[Allybee]

too much change ahhh

[David_Dovey]

Australians like to criticise people from colder climes for passing out from the heat when it is over 30C but on the other hand it was 9C here today and I felt like I was going to start losing limbs. So I guess we are all just weak, pink, squishy things.

[BrittanyMarie]

I much rather prefer being cold than hot. When it's hot I get sick and really really crabby.

DEAR BLOG THREAD,
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS HAMSTER?

HE IS REALLY SMART SO I BET HE IS NOW ON THE INTERNET. His name is Shujinko.

I lost a hamster. I don't know how. The other one is still in the cage, all the doors were closed, and I looked and there were no holes. I saw the little fucker scamper under the refrigerator so I made a trap. The hamster cage came with a hamster ladder, and their favorite food is sunflower seeds so I made a trail up the ladder into a big mixing bowl with more sunflower seeds. He can get in but not out. If it's not there in the morning I'm gonna call my old boss and see where we got the humane traps we have at the video store. Poor hamster, I hope it is not dead behind the oven or something.

If someone has any advice on capturing and not killing a dwarf hamster, please let me know. I feel crappy about it.

[ViolentDove]

Use an elliot trap with a bait made out of rolled oats, peanut butter, and honey rolled into a small ball (I've used around 2 cm diametre for small mammal trapping) and placed at the back of the trap, along with a wad of cotton wool if you're trapping outdoors.

Edit: The cotton wool is for warmth, as when trapped the animal can't shelter as it normally would. Make sure the bait is in front of the wool. Also if trapping outside you need to check the trap early in the morning to avoid inadvertantly cooking the animal in direct sunlight.

[BrittanyMarie]

That! That is the kind of trap I want to get but I don't know where to get one. That's the kind we used at my old video store and it worked really well. I tried Walmart due to the fact that it has everything and is open at 1:30am but they only had things to kill it. It's in my apartment, I think. I don't think he can get out under the front door, but then again I didn't think he could get out of a cage specifically designed for small rodent pet things.

[Allybee]

holy shit you can use those to trap bandicoots!!!!!

[Jace]

I am so very pissed off at my ISPs website, there is no "cancel your service" area and half the pages are outdated and can't be found. Also I slept for like a day and haven't eaten in 36 hours.

Update: it is 2 in the goddamned morning what are you fuckers (my flatmate and friends) doing yelling? Do you forget that we live in an apartment and the people that live next to us have a baby?

[Will]

It's my birthday today, and I will be celebrating later this evening by doing a spoken word set at a county fair. Seems like an odd pairing; punk poets and 4H'ers - right after our set is finished, there's a demo derby in the main area...I'm not sure if anyone is going to dig our stuff or not.

[Josefbugman]

Happy Birthday, and good luck with the spoken word set.

[BrittanyMarie]

Update: I caught the hamster with a warm and fuzzy slipper. He was hanging out behind the fridge so I moved it, and he ran into my cleaning closet so I brought my slipper and cornered him and he walked right into the slipper.

Actually I think he's kind of depressed (so far as hamster depression goes). He ran to the spinny runny wheel, sat on it and he hasn't moved since. Hmm.

[Jimmy the Squid]

Maybe you should do something like this for him.

[David_Dovey]

Or this

[BrittanyMarie]

Maybe a nice romantic dinner? I think the other hamster would get jealous... so two romantic dinners and oh my goodness the loris is adooorable! It really does look happy when she's tickling it.

[MrBlu]

Happy Birthday

[allison]

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday Will. I got you a quote tunnel.

Get your hamster a hamster ball or something, since he likes to explore.

[scarred]

Happy Birthday

Aw, a birthday quote tunnel! You guys are awesome!

[Joseph]

I'm in Prague!  Haven't seen anything that wasn't on the metro/tram ride to my hostel yet, but I'm going to get out and about first thing tomorrow morning.  Really excited.

Also,

Happy Birthday

[Tom]

I'm actually really pumped for my UMAT which is in 3 hours time. OMG, this is crazy.

EDIT: The t=test, man that's bad.

[KvP]

So I am in a Position.

I have two very dear friends, my best friends, my tethers to sanity, pretty much. They used to be a couple but they broke up a few months back because one was going out of town for an extended period of time. Friend who's still in town had remarked to me that the breakup was rather abrupt and she doesn't know why it happened.  

About a month ago I was called over to an acquaintance's house, and after asking me to promise secrecy he told me that he and the friend that had left town had been having an affair towards the end of my friends' relationship. I am apparently the only person of my circle of friends beyond the acquaintance and the out of town friend to know about this whole thing, and I'm apparently not supposed to know because I can't talk about it with my out of town friend.

Lately this has been weighing down on me. I feel like I've been strapped to a bomb that's getting more and more powerful as the clock keeps ticking, and the longer I wait the worse it'll get when it explodes. I didn't consider revealing my knowledge to anyone for so long because I didn't want to hurt my friends and feel responsible for the shit that would go down afterwards and risk losing the best things in my life, but the more I think about it the more I realize that I don't have a choice, this was thrust upon me. The strain of it is making me physically ill at night and it's disrupting my sleep. I owe it to my best friend to tell her. I owe it to my out-of-town friend to tell her that I know her secret (and that I don't judge her for it) and I owe it to myself to shirk this burden I've been given.

So I'm thinking of emailing my acquaintance with an ultimatum - I will strongly advise that he tell out-of-town friend himself, and in a certain amount of time, a week's time maybe, I'll call my out-of-town friend and tell her what I know if she doesn't know at that point. When I call her I will strongly advise that she tell my best friend. If she doesn't, I may have to. I stand to lose her friendship but this isn't fair to me and it's not fair to my best friend.

Am I crazy or dumb? I need some feedback here.

Oh. Oh god.

Will, I am just giving you a plain ol' "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" so I don't break the internets. Also maybe I'll bring you cookies or something.

Blog thread! I got my travel plans finalized for Chicago. Not what I originally wanted, but they will do. Also I am taking the train, because really, it was the safest option for leaving downtown in the middle of the night. So yay! But not so yay is that the owner of the company is coming in Thursday and the idea of him spending a day in my store makes me nauseous. At least I only have to spend one day with him and not two like the others. Bwahaha.

[est]

Am I crazy or dumb? I need some feedback here.

So ok, two female friends A & B were dating, then B had an affair with a dude, C and then broke up with A and left town for a while.

A doesn't know why it happened.  C tells you about the thing with B & you're conflicted about the whole thing.  Is that the gist?

I think that the affair and the breakup are two separate things that may or may not even have anything to do with one another.  They could actually both have been caused by the same underlying problem, like perhaps B didn't like A anymore.  She hooked up with C, then either left town to avoid the situation or used an absence as a good excuse to rid herself of A and put some time & distance between them.

In any case, I don't see where you play a part in this at all.  This is a thing between A & B.  They have already broken up, so I don't see the point in telling A about the affair, as it's in the past and no longer relevant to their relationship (due to it ending).  If B feels guilty about not letting A know more about the situation I am sure she'll tell her.  If A wants better closure she can sack up and ask B herself.

Actually, if you are worried about this I think the most you could do as a concerned friend would be to call B and tell her A is going out of her mind because she doesn't fully understand why they broke up, and could she please give her a call to talk.  If she doesn't want to then I am not sure what else you can do without threatening your friendship.

edit: good luck with it though, it sounds like a shitty situation to be in.

[KvP]

Well it's occurred to me that maybe they broke up because of other reasons, namely that girl B was going away for several months and they faced the age-old problems that come along with being apart from your partner for an extended period of time. What bothers me about it is that B engaged in the affair before the dumping occurred, I really really do not like having to keep (hurtful) secrets for people, and I'm worried that if this were to get out without my active involvement it would be known that I kept the secret and thus I would bear scorn. Ideally, I would just sit B and C down and talk to them about this, and nobody would get hurt.

i swear i have gotten this facebook ad at least 20 times this week:



FACEBOOK all i want to do is check my wall posts and update my status with melodramatic song lyrics, is it so much to ask that i be able to do this without also being assaulted by pro-life advertisements and pictures of babies

[ViolentDove]

Maybe it's just me, but I can't see why this is worrying you so much? I mean, they've already broken, and as Est says telling the dumpee that she was cheated on isn't going to help anything.

I think maybe you're thinking too much into it, doesn't seem like it's really you're problem beyond telling the new couple that they should probably break the news to the dumpee.

[Slick]

Press the thumbs down button under the ad, when it asks you why you dislike it, say it's because it's offensive. Problem solved!

[tania]

oh i did not know i could do that! wicked.

[ViolentDove]

Update: I caught the hamster with a warm and fuzzy slipper. He was hanging out behind the fridge so I moved it, and he ran into my cleaning closet so I brought my slipper and cornered him and he walked right into the slipper.

Yay!

Also this has inspired me to design a way of making an elliot trap out of a cardboard box and materials lying around the house.

[MrBlu]

(Thanks guys, I hoped that would catch on)

(Screw you, I started it and hoped it would catch on)

Maybe you should stop with the incessant baby killing then.
