I wonder what board that was on...

[Ahlir]

Woke at 1am by yelling, which then set off the dogs barking. Wooo.

Housing co-op has given us two weeks to get out, my grandmother has informed me (Through Brett, since she hasn't spoken a word to me in 3 weeks.) that I'm not welcome at the new house.

So yay, but thankfully some people are Awesome (Nick) and have already offered me a couch if I need it. Which, if life continues the way it has been, I may actually have to finally do the one thing I never wanted to do, and accept help from friends.

But, probably the worst part of all, is I forgot that I was living my life. Everytime I ever get something good going, something else shows up to shatter that. Without fail it's the reason I've never been able to get out of this hole I'm in, and now, when I finally thought I'd beaten it, and started to make my way out, this.
My life is as formulaic as an episode of CSI.

[Duckay]

I am really furious about work today.

Nothing the clients did - although I wasn't exactly wild about some of their behaviours - but about the neighbour that pulled me aside afterwards (actually physically intercepting me on the way to my car) to give me a talking to about the clients.

Choice quotes were her snide comments that one of the clients is "fat", describing them as "inmates", comparing them ("mental patients" was the phrase she kept repeating) to "actual disabled people, like in wheelchairs" and demanding to know why we let them make noise and don't just sedate them. Oh, and telling me over and over that she keeps contacting the local MP about us and is going to get us shut down.

The only thing that kept me even close to civil was the fact that I knew she knew who I worked for and could complain about me if I said anything out of turn.

I know it must be trying for her, but seriously... oh my God. I'm actually still shaking a little bit from anger.

[the_lone_bard]

You know you can make a complaint about her to the cops right?
She's on the property, and being incredibly offensive in public. Pretty sure that's grounds to have her barred from coming onto the property. Then next time it happens and you complain she gun git fucked.

[Duckay]

I don't know; my car was parked on the side of the road, so I'm not sure whether where she intercepted me counts as "on the property".

Either way, though, I've sent emails through to my higher-ups reporting the incident. We'll see what happens.

[Metcarfre]

I think I broke my toe. It's more annoying than anything.

[Duckay]

Sorry to hear that, met. That sucks.

[Psyclone]

Oh man, that sucks. You'd be surprised how much having a broken toe can incapacitate you.

[Metcarfre]

Eh, broke four toes on the same foot once. Walked it off.

I just really want to be able to play hockey tomorrow. It's the playoffs, after all.

[auberginequeen]

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT MY PHONE CUT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF A PHONE INTERVIEW AND I DON'T HAVE THEIR NUMBER BECAUSE IT LITERALLY CRASHED.

FUCKING BALLS! What do I do?! Who knows if she'll call back?!

EDIT: She called back ... thank god. I'm an unemployed student with no experience, they have no need of me. I desperately need them. She was very sympathetic about it too. Just ... argh. *facedesk* That's enough adrenaline for today.

[the_lone_bard]

So ontop of all the other shit I have going on, it turns out, I have a fucking bald spot! I'm 19 for fucks sake!

[Master Gunner]

Patrick Stewart went bald at 19, look how he ended up. Sometimes, bald is awesome.

[Dutch guy]

Bard, that bald spot could very well be stress related. the hair COULD return once things calm down a little.

[Elomin Sha]

It's not a bald spot, miniature aliens have made a crop circle.

[The Jester]

Or it could be caused by extra-dimensional elves.

[LogicSword]

People are so unpleasant to each other for such utterly stupid reasons.

[gcninja]

This is simply a vent, please don't start shit. I beg of you
So I saw this

on Facebook
Shit like this pisses me off (so I guess, YES, you did piss me off)
My family is way right, hates Obama, etc
I however like Obama, and can be considered liberal by them. The only reason for this is because many people think conservative or Liberal NOTHING ELSE. I personally an neither though, for the listed facts:
I like guns
I believe every person has the right to protect themselves with them
I understand the need for war and the money for it
I support only legal immigration (go rocket!) and
I think that well-fare should only be short-term (1.5years) unless certain conditions are met
HOWEVER
I think same sex marriage should be legal everywhere
I don't like anybody, government or individual pushing religion on me or anybody who doesn't want it
I think that wars that go on for OVER TEN YEARS, need to end soon (go obama!)
Taxes should be higher for the wealthy, they can take it, trust me
I think that airport security needs to stop profiling and being so grabby, it doesn't work
I believe that people have the right to bear or abort a child, again, under certain conditions*

However, ask any conservative what I am, and they'll likely say "Why, you're a Liberal pussy, HA"
Tell a liberal that I like guns, war, and legal immigrations, and I'll get booed away. I've heard that I fall into the "independent" category, but they never get elected.
GORRAMIT


*Such as changing sex requires seeing psychologists, doctors, etc. a person should see them before aborting a fetus. Even if it results in adoption. Rape or underage mothers fall into this category
That's all, go about your daily lives. I feel a bit better.

[TheRocket]

I hear ya GC. I have some conervative views, and some liberal. FOREVER POLITICALLY ALOOOOONNNEE.

We had this fancy (not really) test thingy we did in highschool to show what side of the chart and how far you fall there. I think we did it on the forums. I can't remember where to find it though.

[Metcarfre]

Ha! My wife broke the same toe on the same article of furniture!

WTF, Ikea shoe cabinet?

[gcninja]

Well maybe if she was wearing shoes instead of storing them

[TheRocket]

NO WEARING SHOES INSIDE THE HOUSE YOU DIRTY AMERICAN!!!

[gcninja]

All the way to my room and across the carpet, kekeke

[King Kool]

WHAT? DON'T YOU OWN A BROOM?!
