Well, back to making money the old-school way.   :lulz:

Honestly, I don't know why I ever went straight.

Oh, wow.  :lol: This should make for some interesting stories.

Yeah, apparently my recent experience and events downtown reminded some people I exist.  The money is good (at least I'm staying afloat), and there's nothing too reprehensible going on.  Nothing that keeps me from sleeping, at any rate.  But the benefits suck, at least the ones I'm interested in.

I have a second interview at one of the mines in a couple of weeks, which is looking good (about 10% more than I made at the last job).  I'll take that over this, but this is okay for now.

I have really become a cranky bastard over the last few weeks.

EMBRACE IT. IT IS YOUR DESTINY.

Yeah, I hate not having a job.  Even though there's still money.

Anyway, Matt Kilb and Joseph came along and demanded my bad day, on the FB discordian thingie.  So I feel slightly better.

Mine was only to be the fucking idiot I am. I've felt like shit since. This is because I was shitty. I'm sorry and now realize you have every right to be mad and to block me. I got angry and stupidly afraid of yet another pointless fight cropping up. I should have simply contacted you with what I was thinking. Instead I shit posted thoughtlessly. I'm not going to go on about it, but I've tried to analyze why I behaved as I did. The butthurt is mine. I regret it and the thing is there's no undoing it. I'll have to live with it.

Sadly I don't think my boyfriend is going to be too keen on posting in your group anymore.

It's too bad, he was going to post the step-by-step development of his plum beer recipe with photos.

But it did at least reinforce that Discordian groups on Facebook aren't for either of us, albeit for different reasons.

Well I apologize. I thought his parody was some form of attempt to subtly resurrect that meme, which I learned to HATE in 2014. There have been various attempts at shitstarting by the Discofuks. One recent example was a possible sock that slipped the filter. Argument: "I don't have any problem with saying N" because he was just a super awesome artistic genius and was into hip-hop. He quickly came to my attention and kept trying to edge around the rules of discourse to be a dick. I ultimately banned him and deleted his shitty trollthread. Part of me saw the same posting pattern, but I was unsure and really DID want a recipe as , uh, proof..yeah. Howl clued me in. Please give him my sincere regards and sorry. That really was funny and emulated well enough to make me VERY UNSURE without other info.

On another note Nigel I understand if you're not into the group, especially if I offended you & your boyfriend, but I partly came to ask if you're willing to admin and so am asking anyway. We had one step down and his replacement qualifier was to find a female, of which we have none. If you're understandably not interested we'll ask the group for volunteers and select that way. I nominated you and so was sent to ask. We need the Science Nigel. Need it!

Gotta get to work, check back later!

I will happily accept your invite to admin, because it will totally freak out a number of people.

However, I should give you the heads-up that I will completely disappear for periods of time up to a month long due to issues like being in the rainforest, or Finals. If that is incompatible with your admin needs, probably another person would be a better choice.

Far as I'm concerned our current admin needs are plurality, smarts, and occasional induction of extra stress hormones into primate brains post-utero.

Take however long off whenever. Just knowing that YOU'LL BE BACK should strike appropriate terror. A little warning could be good for the rest of us, but there's no code of conduct in the "oligarchy". Also I'm the last of the original 3 for now. The idea was to keep it to 5 persons and see where it went. I'm only even on speaking terms with one other. Don't really know the rest. Thanks for accepting!

2015 will be SO much better now I think.

Crossing my fingers on the mine job! That, too, will probably be an interesting job.

You are now an admin of DS2015 Nigel. May your tenure be glorious and enjoyable. I've also invited the only other admin I'm on conversational terms with to check out PD. He is quite bright and a talented writer from what I've seen so far.
We've just finished a very good chat and I like him.


Yes I know what I just did to a person I like.
Starting to think I'm a very bad person...nah!

If this means what I think... well keep an eye out. Best fortune until you find better.
I'll ask the Boss on account of both. You can't stop me.
