Fuck everything

Re: Fuck everything

[philstar22]

Glad someone posted this. I have three rants.

1. My roommate was not working until noon today, and yet she forgot to turn off her alarm. So it went off at 5 as usual, 2 hours before I have to get up. I can never go back to sleep after. Argh.

2. Supposedly you can return books to one of my school libraries that was checked out from one of the others. Only, there seems to be some disconnect because I returned a book and it somehow got lost and now I'm being charged for it.

3. At the place I'm interning, there is not enough room, so they have me using my own laptop. Only for the past few days my laptop won't connect to their internet. It isn't just my computer because I tried my other laptop and had the same problem. Only none of the office desktops are having that problem. Haven't been able to get work done, and it is frustrating me because I don't know how to fix the problem. Airport tells me I'm connected and yet nothing loads.

the guy i'm kinda seeing had wanted to talk about dating on new year's day. we hadnt seen each other the two weeks prior because of winter break so i think he missed me a lot. he was really affectionate. new years comes and goes and he didnt say anything about dating, and i dont think he forgot, so i figured he changed his mind. which is fine, but i wish he would have re-set boundaries in our relationship and said it directly. not saying anything at all has been hard on me. i keep thinking he's getting bored or sick of me, which hurts.

i told him when we first started fooling around that i wasnt going to catch feelings that i knew wouldnt be reciprocated. but after he expressed interest i thought that opportunity was available to me. overall it seems like a lot of effort to wedge drama in between us unnecessarily.

anyway, on saturday we were hanging out and he slipped away for an hour to hang out with his other friends, which i was 1000% fine with. i always am. he came back with one of his friends and they hung out the whole time. then we bumped into some more of his friends so i told him i'd let him spend time with them without me, that i was gonna roam around, etc. but that i'd be back at our meeting place to hang later. he said ok, he'd be back too. by the time i got back, one of my other friends told me that my guy had left and told my other friend to tell me goodbye. he didnt even text me himself, he just flaked on me and it really upset me. i feel like he doesnt respect me and that he doesnt like me anymore, and hes doing a bad job at letting me know this with the least amount of pain involved as possible. his new years flake has given me a complex and i feel like that is pushing him further away.

Found out because my income changed, I owe $400 for Obamacare (I got a raise). Fucking sucks. So, I tried to change my income on healthcare.gov. Went thru all the crap.

Going to raise my monthly insurance from 80 to 120 (that is going to fucking suck). Clicked on a link to figure out what plan I have now so I could get the same one.

Annndddddd now I can't get back to that plan choosing place. Went to my applications. No option there. It says it is complete. Dont know if I should go thru alllll the information again, or just give up and pay whatever I need to again at the end of the year.

I almost want to ask my boss to pay me less so I get more of a premium.

Vent question

[(Anonymous)]

Is it okay to be happy someone "traded down" if they deserve it? The entire concept of "trading up" or "down" in relationships goes against everything I stand for but it gives me a lot of solace. It feels like karma to see it happening. I'd never say this to them of course.

Re: Fuck everything

[(Anonymous)]

I'm getting more and more frustrated with dating sites; how exactly do they match you? Because seriously, if I'm matched to one more guy whose favorite book is "text messages" and likes bear hunting and/or smoking pot, I will cry. Seriously, I've tried everything, and that's still what I end up getting.

I went to the dentist for the first time in 4 years and I have a tooth that needs a root canal and ten cavities.

Cha ching~~~~

Re: Fuck everything

[caerbannog]

Dude is having hr issues and asks me along as moral support.
Ok then
Dude throws a tantrum in the hr dispute. Personally I'm pretty embarrassed.
Dude gets a warning for it, calls me up at work to demand I be the witness that he wasn't aggressive. Dude u were totes aggressive. Also everyone around me can hear the convo which is embarrassing.
Also u made ur manager cry.

Dude is just...over reacting so bad to everything and needs to calm the fuck down before he gets fired.

I felt bad for him but now I'm woah embarrassed to have been there as support and I hope this doesn't ruin my work place cause his manager works with my team a lot.

Seriously over reacting.

Gonna distance self.

Re: Fuck everything

[kallanda_lee]

Been screwed over b another potential employer again, who let me make several news items for him for free as a "test", but now doesn't even have the decency to reply to my mails or answer my calls. Screw people like that.

Re: Fuck everything

[badass_tiger]

I'm so done with people who, when I go 'Okay, I can be around during [this time to this time]', they say 'Great, I can be around from [nowhere near my time of availability! See you then!!' when they're asking me for a favour. Please learn to use your ears/eyes (if it's an online thing). The least you could do is say 'That won't work for me, I'm only around from whenever-whenever' instead of just assuming I want to help your dumb ass out so much that I'd sneak out of work/sleeping/whatever else to do it.

An Apology

[(Anonymous)]

So I'm the anon from the omegaverse secret yesterday (the big argument about sex, female, male). I just wanted to apologize for my behavior yesterday. I was re-reading over my responses and I could see how I was acting condescending and rather judgmental. And a bit holier-than-thou too. I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm sorry -- and especially to the OP for kind of hijacking the thread.

Torrent Safety

[(Anonymous)]

I would like to download a movie from a torrenting site but I'm usually very wary of downloading programs from the internet. So, I was wondering if anyone had any spyware/virus issues from torrenting. Was it easy to get rid of after you were done needing it?

Also, what is the legality of torrenting. Like, would just having torrenting software but no movies still be illegal?

What are people's favorite torrenting sites? (I'm looking at http://kickass.so right now.) Any other useful advice? Thanks!

I don't belong here!

[feotakahari]

I recently got into posting on Know Your Meme, which means I recently realized just how bad a fit I am for KYM's culture. I also post on Cracked and Kotaku, so I'm used to a certain amount of monosyllabic rage against feminists and queer people, but KYM is so reactionary, and so very angry about misandry and special-snowflake gender pronouns, I feel like I'm skipping through a minefield every time I post outside Hentai Quotes. Has anyone else had this experience of hanging out on a site where you feel like you're from a different planet than the rest of the posters?

(If anyone's wondering, it runs both ways. I saw someone on KYM post that they don't go to /d/ anymore because it's too liberal and politically correct.)

Favorite Painting and/or Artist

[othellia]

Got brought up in a conversion I had today and I was curious. If you don't have a favorite particular painting, feel free to list an artist.

My favorite painting (and has been since I was seven) is Picasso's Guernica. (somewhat graphic)

Hopper's Nighthawks is a close second though.

The most WTF errors you've made/seen/heard

[(Anonymous)]

Yesterday I randomly remembered this one time, ages ago, when I was complaining to someone about school and how much I hated it all, and I tried to make some dumbass comment like "I'm just gonna drop out and become a prostitute", except somehow I accidentally said "lawyer" instead of "prostitute", and I still have no fucking clue how that happened.

So. Share yours?

deductibles

[(Anonymous)]

Can someone explain how those work? If my deductible is $1500 and my monthly insurance costs $200, does that mean my insurance does not cover anything until 8 months into the year (8x200=1600)?

Free Doujinshi

[(Anonymous)]

Hey, does anybody know of scanlated Free doujinshi with Makoto/not Haru or Rin pairings?

So on tonight's episode...let's discuss!

Yuri terminology

[(Anonymous)]

Now I'm not the expert that you guys are but I have been known to read some yuri often on occasion. So with yaoi, there's a distinction between seme/uke based on penetration- but is there a similar terminology for yuri based on the pursuer/pursued dynamic? Or, failing that, what's the term for a female "megane" character? Like, is she JUST "megane" like the dudes?

Nice people you don't like?

[(Anonymous)]

Has anyone else ever met someone who is, for the most part, generally a nice person? This one person in my current fandom is pretty nice to everyone, is generally chill, but her opinions and interpretations of certain characters and concepts from the fandom source material are so vastly different from my own and I generally disagree with just about everything she espouses about the source material. This wouldn't be a bad thing if she wasn't so condescending to people who disagree. And if people call her out for being condescending she always pulls the "I wasn't talking about YOU! If it doesn't apply to you then you shouldn't be bothered by it!"

Also if people have different interpretations of the characters/source material they're "doing it wrong" and that these fanworks are of a "lesser artistic quality." She even used a metaphor that people who are like this are generally the same type of people who listen to mainstream pop whereas people like her who try to write "much more artistic work" are those who listen to indie bands and other things.

Beyond this mentality she's not a bad person or anything, so I feel guilty for not liking her or not wanting to interact with her at all (I usually stay in my little fandom corner). Anyone else gone through anything similar?
