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

[Computer-Lab in Basement]

Aggressive people. Fights. Getting caught by cops after a fight.

Getting all sweaty after cycling in -15. Getting my feet cold after cycling in -15.

Generally, sweating too much.

Forthcoming new year and Christmas holidays.

You have quite a few... iri-tations

I just learned that one of my good friends from when I was in grad school committed suicide in Saturday.  I hadn't talked to him in a while, but he seemed to be doing fine.

And I know this is selfish, but what makes it worse is that there is no emotional sadness, just a detached rational or intellectual sadness from knowing that a great guy is no longer around and that others are hurting from him being gone.

Damn, man. I am truly sorry to hear that.

It gives me a heavy heart...

The person who I bought my HHKB shipped it in its original box with translucent green bubble wrap around it and that's it. I can't be too mad as I got a great deal on it, but not ideal shipping conditions.

At least you got the original box.

I didn't when I bought mine (secondhand).

Yeah, I got all the original + 50$ less than retail and I am a happy camper

[katushkin]

So it's New Year's Day. 06:40am. The M42 motorway just outside Birmingham is deserted. I am the only car for half a mile in either direction. The normal speed limit for the motorway is 70mph.

And yet, the Highways Agency in all their wisdom think there is congestion, and have dropped the speed down to 50. And then I get pinged by a speed camera.

**** my whole life. Happy new year you ****s.

$700

How much over the limit were you going?

[demik]

honestly? ZERO. the cops claim it was 15. but it's probably 'cause im black.

It's just the variable speed limit that gets me. They have introduced "managed motorways" everywhere, and this stretch of the M42 is always poorly managed. Every time I drive down it the speed is dropped, be it 8am on a Monday, or 8pm on a Saturday.

Yes, I was doing 65. But I always do 15 over the limit on that road and have never been pinged before. If I actually get sent a fine through, I'm taking it to court.
