Do you hate people though? Not crowds, but people in general.

This has a different answer depending on my mood and current outlook on life. For most of my life, it was undoubtedly “Yes, absolutely”. In the past two/four years, I’ve mellowed. I can at least talk to annoying people now without feeling complete rage. These days, I’m trying to find good friends, so I have to give people the benefit of the doubt. If they cross me, I will remove all contact. Either way, I eventually find a reason to hate them in a Seinfeldian way. It’s a viscious cycle.

I feel like I’m living day to day.

That is certainly me now. I don’t have anyone here to help get me out of it, unfortunately, and very little motivation to do it myself.

I hate crowds. I usually find a reason to get annoyed at anyone eventually.

Relatable.

Oh?

Excellent plan.

I thought the Titanic regrade was a vast improvement over the Blu-ray.

I was sold a bedbug infested mattress by my landlord, and can’t get rid of the bugs and a refund for the mattress. This sucks.

I hope used to be an aprtment manager, and we experienced bedbugs in our complex. Now that the mattress is in your house, I guarantee they’re not limited to the mattress. There are pesticides, but the most effective thing we found was food grade diatomaceous earth (we bought Exo Dust). It’s much more natural and healthier to humans than pesticides and seemed more effective too. I’ll see if I can find a link.

JEDIT: Nit the same brand but it looks like the same product. Seriously, buy this and use generously and you’ll be alright!

Will do, thank you.

Because I am an idiot.

Don’t click on the picture. Problem solved.

Ignoring the problem doesn’t solve the problem (plus sometimes I click on it by accident, immediately regretting it).

This is fantastic.

Police Squad! In Color is easily one of the best shows ever made.

I haven’t seen that one in over a decade. That was definitely among one of the first films I ever saw, and I remember it being great. Looks like it’s time to revisit it.

Currently, whenever I click on a picture, it obscures the rest of the page and I am unable to return to where I was reading. The escape key, refresh, and going to the previous page and back do not work. Sometimes there’s an x in the upper right corner that I can click, but most of the time it is not there. I suppose an easy solution would be to have the escape key close out of that popup, as of now it is the most aggravating feature on the site.

Ah.

Why is the bowstring going behind her head? I don’t expect that to feel pleasant if she accidentally sends the arrow flying.

That’s the joke. It’s obviously playing off that old Zelda/Link misconception, but adding a misogynistic twist in that she’d be dumb because she would be a she.

The bowstring disappears in the middle of her hat. I think the reason it does is so we get a clear view of the face, rather than that. Just bad art I guess.

Hello, Groucho.

Death Note - 1/5
Willem Dafoe is good, but is a second-rate Green Goblin (he didn’t seem as invested as he could have been). Everything else is incoherent. I haven’t even seen the anime or anything, but I don’t care to. I didn’t even want to watch this.

I’ve still got an S3.

I got braces put on yesterday, which would be bad enough if I didn’t also have to get a non removable plate stuck to my upper back teeth to widen my jaw, which means I can’t talk, eat, or swallow (since it blocks the roof of my mouth from my tongue) and am in great pain constantly.

For how long will you be unable to speak or eat?

Am I the only one that thinks all food tastes more or less the same? As long as it isn’t McDonald’s or something totally inedible, I’ll eat it without complaining. In fact, the more fancy, gourmet, and “better” the food, the less likely I am to enjoy it.

You are not alone. I think we suffer from similar neuroses.

With digital photography and computer manipulation, it would be hard to tell the difference. It’d still look worse.

It is not my favorite movie, but definitely the one I’ve spent the most time with. I have a hard time narrowing down my favorites to 50 movies.

I’m not very personable.

Another thing to consider, if it’s an option and you aren’t already doing so, is to try more dating. Finding a girlfriend is another way to keep from being isolated.

Sounds easy.

It’s kind of like saying we shouldn’t have supported gay marriage because we might lose the next election.

I am reminded of the 2008 debates, when both Biden and Palin were strongly against the idea. That issue changed fast after 2012.
