If what North Americans call corn is usually called maize in the UK, would/do they call corn mazes “maize mazes”?

I’m ignoring Canadia.

Careful. We Canuckistani jihadists will be coming for you if you’re not vigilant.

Who?

You. Geez, you’re dense Frink.

Possessed, you really need to listen to what people are saying. Get help. We care about you and see a lot of potential in you that you’re just letting go to waste if you do this. Depression is obviously preventing you from thinking clearly, and you seriously need to get on some medication or something to get out of it.

Technically, alcohol IS a solution.

At least you’re not too depressed to make a joke. That’s something. 😉

Seriously though, wasting a few bucks is better than destroying your life during a rough patch.

Pour that bottle of liquor down the drain before you get too tempted to drink it. It’s not the solution Possessed.

I have a $10 Amazon gift card from Christmas and idk what to spend it on.

Buy a $10 dollar gift certificate to 5 guys. Then go to 5 guys and get a burger and fries.

LOL, we don’t have 5 guys up where I live, so it took me a moment to figure out how the heck this made sense. 😛

You’ve got people here willing to listen to you. Please talk about it. Sometimes that’s all you need to see things a bit more clearly. At any rate, it’s too early to give up–it’s always too early to give up.

I wish I could come up with some really great advice or a convincing argument to make you change your mind, but I will say this:

There are people who care about you. Your friends, your family, people on this forum… Your life is valuable, and you are valuable. No matter how rough life gets, a slow suicide (or any kind of suicide…) is not the answer. Talk to the people you work with. You’ve mentioned before that you don’t want to burden them, etc., etc. But do. Friends are there to help you through your struggles, and if they are truly your friends (heck, even if they aren’t and they’re just decent people), they would rather have whatever burden your problems might be than have you disappear from their lives one day because you drank yourself out of this life.

Please, please reconsider. You’ve got decades ahead of you yet if you take care of yourself. I don’t know what exactly is bothering you, whether it’s losing your friendship or something else, but nothing is worth giving up over.

And remember, if you don’t take up drinking again, you’ve always got an extra career option available to you: you could become one of those motivational speakers who go around to schools, then you could sneak in a bit of your music, and before you knew it, people would be paying to go your concerts. 😉

In all seriousness though, you don’t know what life has to offer, so at least give it a chance.

Incidentally, I used to live only mile away from that mosque. No one I know was directly impacted by it, but friends of my old friends lost their father to that shooter. People can’t accuse Muslims of being the sole perpetrators of terrorist attacks anymore.

Yup, looks good as is!

This is at least the fourth time it’s happened in this thread.

Why only this thread!?

LOL (even better if it could be worked into the Rebel Death Star briefing in ANR).

The title seems pretty boring to me, but the quality of the title rarely says much about the quality of the movie, so we’ll see. I expect to enjoy it more than TFA, since there’s less room for rehashing (I would think). I’ve only seen TFA once, though, and I’d gladly watch it again, given the opportunity, to see if my opinion changes after a second viewing.

Yeah, that’s hard, especially when you’re not at school, where it’s easy to make lots of new connections.

At least he’s not your only friend though. Girls are okay too. ;P

I’m looking forward to it! I’ll still probably be (legally) an adult before you get 'er done though. 😛

So we can expect a release some time this year? 😉

Audio quality is not great but as good as I can make it. Understandable?

Yup!

Looks like I’ve missed a lot of updates in the last couple months, since I only seem to get subscription emails half the time… 😕

Out of curiosity, about what percent of the way done do you think you are?

There is not much more to update on. The Baby passed away. All there is for them to do now is to mourn and pray and have the funeral and at some point try to get on with life.

Sorry, I forgot to refresh the page before replying, so I missed your update. I’m so sorry to here that, and will keep the family in my prayers.

Something similar happened to a couple we knew in my hometown. I can’t imagine what it must be like to go through that.

I’ve been praying, make sure to keep me updated.

EDIT: Missed a bunch of posts somehow…

I remember really enjoying them, but as Star Wars novels, not great pieces of literature. As far as most of the EU goes, the Thrawn trilogy is just about as good as it gets, but as far as books go, not even close.

Then you need me to help bring the quality back up! 😉

It does look like some of the threads have gone off the rails. I can only imagine what the Politics thread is like right now… It’s 500 pages longer than when I last stopped by.

I left. 😛

Hopefully I’ll have more time eventually to hang out here, but it doesn’t look like that’ll be anytime soon…

A few years down the road, I’m sure you’ll be glad that didn’t happen.

Yikes, I’m sure glad you quit when you did!
