Re: Ask Alex and Paul LIVE (PAX West 2017 replacement edition)
Now that you've moved:I think a lot of fans would consider the Delta Era streams/content pretty great overall. Is there anything you would consider particularly successful from your time there? Anything you might have done differently in hindsight? Are there any TV Shows/music/other media you are ex...

Re: AER Pre-release - How'd you do?
This was not only the first prerelease I attended, but also the first paper magic thing I'd gone to outside of my small group of friends so I was a little nervous. However I had a whole lot of fun, and ended up going 2-3 which, as a novice, I consider pretty good. I only had one unpleasant opponent,...

Re: LoadingReadyLIVE [the show, not the channel]
I've been really enjoying LRL, it's great fun and overall I've loved every episode. I do have a couple of nitpicks though, the main one being that I often feel like segments go on for too long. Last week's discussion segment on remakes felt like a particularly bad one as it seemed to very quickly lo...

Re: The depressing depression thread
Things don't feel like they're going terribly well right now. Work is unbelievably stressful, the potentially really interesting job I've been interviewing has gone silent, despite them saying everything was really positive and they wanted to set things up for me asap, and the visit to a psychiatris...

Re: The depressing depression thread
After going out and trying to meet new people, get involved, not be quite so desperately, soul-crushingly lonely I have come to the conclusion that I am completely repugnant. I seem to be the guy that sucks all life and fun out of a conversation/event. People can just about tolerate me if they have ...

Re: The depressing depression thread
A whole bunch of stuff has happened over the last week, and now I'm a burnt out blob of sadness. I feel like every drop of happiness has been scooped out of me, leaving nothing but a void of worry and despair. Anything life-changing is a long way off, but things that are 6 months away are going to s...

Re: The Mixed Emotion Thread
I have just made one of the most peculiar purchases I can remember: 40 rubber ducks. Sure, it was a very silly thing to buy, but the look of horror on my co-worker's face when he finds his desk covered in them will be priceless.

Re: The depressing depression thread
I was feeling bad enough today already. I've been extra lonely recently and now my housemate is going away for two weeks and I'm likely to have little human contact outside of work. My anger and self-loathing is probably the worst it's been since I was in hospital. At the best of times I'm aloof, we...

Re: The depressing depression thread
Apparently one of my best friends from secondary school got married this week. I didn't even know he was engaged. I can't even feel particularly happy for him since it's been nearly 10 years since we last saw each other. I seem to struggle keeping relationships with people going in general, and no-o...

Re: The Mixed Emotion Thread
I missed out on the registration for an event as demand was super high, but I did manage to get on the waiting list and I'd say there's an OK chance of me getting a ticket. Most of my friends did not get this far and they're talking about not even bothering to try. I'd rather not end up going alone....

Re: The depressing depression thread
After a month of being back at my job I'm reminded of why I wanted to leave in the first place. I could deal with the long hours or the repetitive tasks if there was anything to redeem it. My bosses are straight out of the fucking 1800's with their approach to employees, attempting to squeeze every ...

Re: Arclight_Dynamo's Anime Frustration
Most people here have mentioned several series that are frequently recommended as starting off points, but if you're looking for slightly less commitment, or just want to try out a few more things there are several decent movies out there you could investigate. While none of them are similar to the ...

After several months of being stuck in limbo I start a new job on Monday. It seems like something I'm much more interested in than what I was doing before and has some really good potential. I haven't felt this optimistic for a long time. Perhaps I should have asked what the actual job title was, th...

An interesting take on the reasons behind opposition to same sex marriage.

Re: The depressing depression thread
It was amicable, I think they'd be happy to have me back if I asked. It's only a small business, there'd be no fuss and I know the job so they can be sure I'm competent. I'm probably being over-anxious about it. But I'm disappointed in myself. I recklessly did a Big Life Thing that's gone awry. It's...

Re: The depressing depression thread
I left because I thought I was going to go on a course and become a full time student again. It's a bit of a long and convoluted story, but essentially I spent two months preparing to leave only to find out that I never had a place on the course to begin with. It's almost all my own fault since I im...

I feel pretty darn low right now. I had such grand plans for where I was going in life, but now they've all blown up in my face. Sometime in the upcoming week I need to go to my old boss and beg for my old job back less than a month after I left. I don't even want to think about what'll happen to me...

Re: This thread is so gay
As well as integrating non-LGB members more fully into the community. The main difficulty I forsee is that gay marriage was an easy, popular thing to get behind, and now that it's over a lot of straight allies will step back, thinking the job is done - which is obviously not the case; racism is sti...

It's one thing for a place to be haunted, but haunted by an irritating German groundskeeper? The terrible, moderately racist '80s sitcom writes itself.
