What's Bothering You? (The thread about what is bothering you.)

Highly opinionated commentary with no research done.

Want a hug bro, I'll let you have the first for free

At my workplace, once or twice a year, we have these offsite "Mandatory Funtivites", everyone is supposed to go. This time it is at a Dave and Busters about 30 minutes away from the office, which for me is an additional 30 minutes away from my house - I already have an hour long one way commute. I struggle in places with a lot of noise, I can find it extremely stressful. I like concerts and all that, but then it is doing something I want to do, with someone I want to do it with, and usually I am going by myself anyway. Here I'm supposed to socialize and deal with all the din of humanity and...whatever, it is just not fun for me.

So I said to my boss that I'm not going. It just isn't worth it. 5 hours of non-stop ruckus in a place I don't want to be just to satisfy some corporate need to make us all "have fun" is NOT fun. He is not happy with me. I don't care. There is just only so much I can take and this was just asking too much today. Now I'm sitting in the quite office because everyone is gone. The only sound is my keyboard as I'm typing, and I am sure I made the right choice, consequences be damned! I'd rather work until 5pm by myself than be someplace I don't want to be, pretending I want to be there.

Sounds like the right choice to me.

pretty sure it's been said before, but people who post in GB threads saying "waiting for my notice about shipping" and "has this been shipped yet".

makes it a lot harder to find relevant information for the rest of us mortals who are waiting, but not cool enough to let everyone know that they are waiting for their notice.

Normally the GB owner will post update in the OP, first post, so it doesn't matter how many people whines about shipping notification. I think this is a good practice and seemed to be pretty unique to GH, well, not that I go to that many forums.

Took new migraine meds today, felt my blood pressure drop, and I started to pass out. Heart started racing, then stopped for I'm guessing 8-10 seconds.


Yeah, I'm calling my doc in the morning.

Why is it that UK has just that it's clock but not US?

Wow! That's pretty messed up. Migraines are the worst. I'd rather have my nuts stomped then ever experience one of those again. I hope you can get it worked out very soon.

Thx guys.  He said to watch out for it because it can cause serious heart issues in about 1% of patients.  Welcome to the 1%?  Lol.

My sister in UK. She told me yesterday that her clock adjusted. I assumed everyone in Northern Hemisphere would do the same. Then I notice US have not. Why do I care? Well, sales! All these time zones are confusing me come sales time, LOL!

****, HPS, hope you're okay, man!

I can be a bit of a hypochondriac sometimes, though it's toned down lately, but whenever I'd tell my mom that I'm wary of some medications because of some terrible side effects, she'd just tell me that it's only some people that experience those.

I'm like, "yeah, but those 'some' could be you or me."

Ongoing Apple saga

Is it an old mac? Just use FreeBSD, all your problems will be over.

FreeBSD went downhill when they switched to LLVM.  Has it improved since?

Got a C on my test. Will now proceed to drop the classes that threaten my scholarship, giving me a grand total of 2 credit hours this quarter. After reading more about symptoms of Accutane, I'm convinced it's messed me up mentally a little bit. I've never had this much trouble retaining/focusing on material. Hopefully that goes away as soon as I get off the drug like a month from now, or I'll be pretty well ****ed

[BlueNalgene]

I left my thumb drive with my current priority project on it at home today.  Now what am I supposed to use to motivate me to work on other projects by way of avoiding the main one?

[baldgye]

It bothers me no one got my MGS2 post. I literally copy and pasted it into a thread, only changing the grammar to better fit.

Shame on you all.

I've had that all week.  I think it's mainly stress for me though.  6 hours a night should be plenty.

I started using this stuff. It's amazing. Take it an hour before bed. I used to suffer from sleeplessness a lot.

There's this one girl from my hometown that made a website about how great she thinks she is. She's not even that impressive, but it's the single most narcissistic thing I have ever seen in my whole life. Here's a link in case you want to check it out yourself:

It's just really bothering me how someone can be this self absorbed.

melatonin knocks me out about 20m after i've taken it. i actually knocked out last night while folding clothes on my bed with the lights still on. stuff's strong

only downside is it gave me trippy nightmares a couple times, but that was when i was super stressed

Also if she has any sort of analytics, she's about to see a weird influx of traffic from some website she's never heard of.

You learn to deal.  I work with mentally ill people, so I have to deal with that several times a week.

Yeah I know.... these guys though are beyond bad - all they do is just act really shi##ty and have a habit of talking behind everyone's backs

no one is upfront about anything

By being on the internet, she gives people from my area, as well as my school, a bad name.
Also, her "achievements" aren't really that impressive.

Having a personal website isn't narcissistic.
EVEN ONE THAT HEAVILY PROMOTES YOURSELF.
Get over yourself and grow up.

I'm pretty sure in a literal sense it falls under narcissism but whatever.

You just reminded me that I'm always having to pair up with this neckbeard kid in my lit class because he sits right next to me. Doesn't help that he doesn't read the required text for discussion and just spends all his class time on irc
