Also, speaking as a mother who just miscarried triplets, I guess I'm lucky it wasn't six weeks later and in Mormonville.

Now if you'll asscuse me, I have a governor to write--not that he'll giveashit....

I had to go find another article and that one said that all stages of the pregnancy are to be "protected." http://www.clevelandleader.com/node/13141

My time at Game Crazy got like this. Except it was all and only the management who would have been on the receiving end, right on up to Sheriff, the CEO-type person at the top of the ladder.
Weapon of choice? a wii mote launched at high speeds. I think the harpoon gun might have been better, though.

Are you talking about Carly for California's devil sheep? http://www.fcino.com/



edited to cheap at getting rid of the damned robots. 

I was previously Corvidia and feel free to use it.

I could have had him if I had wanted him, even as recently a last week, but I turned him down when he went after me and I don't regret it. I can see the drama. And it's not the red head she broke up with--that boy has been pining for her for ages and never got her. Part of the problem is, she openly used and verbally abused our red head friend for six months before my friend got with her. We were talking about it last *week.*

...If it was posted as a "I'm so bummed and pissed off because my friend is dating this awful girl and is being a jerk to me" sort of post in Apple Talk, I think it would have gotten sympathy and more gently-worded advice.

I learned something new. Thank you.

You do have a good point, Nigel. I am rather unlikely to actually hurt him back for his comments, even though I wanted to when I posted this, because that never does anyone any good. I was pretty angry at that point (even if it comes off more like whining  ). And I'm kind of hoping this is a phase because I'd like to keep him as a friend.

sounds like you should butt out of your friend's personal life. Can't speak to the "comments" he made to you, since you won't elaborate, but so far I'm giving this a 3/10. Sounds more whining than ranting.

It had more to do with the tone in the both instances than the actual wordage. In the first instance, he didn't sound teasing or sarcastic, just demeaning and it made me angry. I made that pretty clear to him that and he didn't stop or apologize. The second instance what he said was rather objectifying--he's still attracted to me and it's been a source of running humor but, again, it was the way he said what he said and not the comment. Didn't sound funny, not said with a smile, just a crass jackass comment I would have expected from a bro.

We have an agreement to be rather honest about our opinions of the other's boy or girlfriend, should an opinion be asked. He knew my opinion beforehand and I'm not going to pretend otherwise if he asks me again. I already said I didn't expect him to actually take it into account even though we both know I'm a fairly good judge of character and that's not why I'm unhappy anyway. If he hadn't been an ass to me and she hadn't been abusing our friend for six months, I wouldn't care that he picked up with a girl I didn't like. But he was, she did, and I'm pretty sure there's a correlation based on his comments, so I do care. But I'm not going to stick my nose in their relationship because it's not my place.

Dear friend,

Ok, so you finally got a girlfriend again. Good for you. Why are you being insufferable? Yesterday, I was ready to throttle you for being such an unmitigated ass and the day before was the day you got together which the girl--I'm pretty sure there's a correlation because you weren't like this a couple days ago. I understand some of your cockiness because, well, she thought it was your knee. But I swear to god, I will punch you in the face if you ever say something like that again to me. We give each other shit all the time but that was over the line and I HATE the way you said it. I'm not easy to offend or hurt, but congratulations, you managed it.
Oh, and also? That comment you made to me yesterday when I almost fell over? Not ok. I am not an object and you will never reduce me to my body. More than it would go to waste if I died.

And then there's the matter of you taking up with this particular girl at all. First off, I'm pretty sure you aren't with her because you like her. You just know she broke up with her ex because he wouldn't put out. Plus, this girl is quite frankly abusive. I kind of doubt she'll do it to you, but you know exactly what kind of things she said to our friend the red head. You know how she treated him. And that you got with her at all is fucking low because you KNOW he hasn't been able to get over this girl since September. She also all but has a sign on her back that says BAT SHIT CRAZY. We've talked about this and you agreed with me last week--which was about three days before you found out she liked you. WTF.
I don't expect you to take this into account when selecting a girlfriend, but you know that A) I'm a pretty good judge of character and B) I don't like her. Hm. Let's count the number of times I've been wrong.

I'm going to be civil to her and I'm going to remind you I don't like her. And I'm going to enjoy hurting you. Little tiny jabs here and there until you stop behaving like a revolting jackass. Or maybe you never will. I don't know. But I do know that I don't want to be your friend if you keep this up.

What happened to the friend I've had for three years? My friend was sweet and had a sense of honor. He got mad when people made the sort of comments you did yesterday. Congratulations. You are now your father. Let me buy you some coke and find you a whore and you'll be all set.

Love (or maybe not),

Family Circle is kind of like the Flanders family from the Simpsons. Except worse because they have no redeeming moments. Ever. It's the same ol' corny, syrupy-sweet "family friendly" shite you see in, like, KIDZ NOW! CDs on TV. But with Jesus.

I just remembered about George and Lynne. George. And fucking oh hey my tits have come out again, distracting you from the lack of lulz Lynne.

an example of the pointlessly nsfw none lulz can be found here in  Great Tome Of Journalistic Standards, The Sun http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/fun/cartoons/george_and_lynne/article645660.ece?slideshowPopup=true&articleId=645660&nSlide=2

Ugh. That was atrocious.

An unfinished but still awesome Warren Ellis work is N.E.X.T.W.A.V.E, of which there are two books.


I'm kind of a huge Marvel fan and I recommend the Civil War arc.

Go to a doctor.  Find one you trust (family doctor?) who is covered by your medical insurance (if you have it).  Your doctor will sit down with you and help you figure out if you're actually depressed or just blue.  If you think you're depressed, you're probably depressed.  But you go to the family doctor first to get a referral.  If you're depressed your doctor should refer you to a psychiatrist.  The psychiatrist will determine whether your depression is due to your environment or a chemical imbalance.  S/he will prescribe happy pills if you need them.  If you do, remember people have different reactions to medication.  Keep your psychiatrist informed about how the medication is affecting you at all times.  We tried 5 or 6 different kinds of pills before we found some that worked for me.  I don't remember which one it was but I definitely started hallucinating with one of them.  Once we found the right pills I was back to my normal self in less than 2 months.

Even if you don't get pills you'll probably be going to some form of therapy for a while.  Some people can get out of their funk just by taking care of themselves(eating healthy, exercising, communicating) but it's always a good idea to get a professional opinion and it never hurts to talk things out with people.  There's no reason to isolate yourself.  Get help if you need it.

I'm actually a little wary of telling you just to go to the doctor. That's what I did and I ended up on zoloft. Which was absolutely not what I needed. Yaaay mania.

Really all this is, pre-emptive advice for if I actually have depression that is serious enough to warrant pills.

If you have serious depression--even if it's not chronic--then go. Take what they give you and figure out what you need to do to make it better if indeed you don't have chronic depression.

What I loved about his speech was his advocacy for civil and literacy tests. Didn't we get rid of those already? During, like, the civil rights era? Because I'm pretty sure we did.

  I like.



I am entirely too social not to have fun. That, and I am easily entertained.

Explicit erotic fiction, specifically.
