Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
So we're trying to buy a house (aka BF has money for a house and I will be paying him rent) and it is so stressful. We had two houses we were ready to make an offer on and the one we figured no one would want got snatched up so quickly. Now we're trying to lowball an offer on another house since we can't afford the asking price. This house would be perfect. It's within walking distance to most of his family and it's a house we could easily grow into. Now it's just a waiting game to see if we are able to negotiate with the seller. If we can't get that one, then it starts all over again. I just want to move into a house by Christmas. Our apartment is too tiny for us now and we're ready to take that life step. I wish we were able to buy earlier in the summer. There were so many awesome homes available, but BF didn't want to look at homes while I was in Colorado.

Kudos are really nice.
I know my writing is shit. I mostly write for me.
But getting kudos sure makes me feel better about what I've managed to scrape together.
The fact that I'm sharing a silly little story idea that I enjoyed enough to spend time polishing, and carefully placing it out there for the world to see, and someone out there reads and likes it.
Makes me fucking giddy.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
y'know what really freaks me out
is occasionally being reminded how easily i can misread other people

my first reaction is to always wonder if i'm just an asshole. my cycle is to notice something's wrong, then notice something was wrong for much longer than i realized, then realize something wrong is still going on...
reread to see what i did wrong. reread again. reread again. decide someone else did something wrong. feel butthurt and unliked. wonder if i only feel butthurt and unliked because i'm an asocial twat. wonder if people are nice to me because they don't have the mental energy to deal with me. i'm just a fucking asshole, it's really not that complicated. this doesn't feel right, but it's the only answer that makes sense. i must just be such a manipulative, inconsiderate bastard that i'm not even capable of acknowledging how i inconvenience others. i wonder if i'd stop feeling it if i just never fucking talked to anyone. i bet that's the kind of thing incels say.
y'know what else a slimy, manipulative incel would do? vent in a public space about things that make them feel shitty. that's how they summon pity. i can tell myself i vent because i'm upset, or that i want to let it out, or that i don't care if no one says anything about it, but really... any justification i can make. can't it all just loop back into manipulative behavior? am i really upset, or did living with a gaslighter for all those years make me incapable of emotion, and i'm only manipulating myself into thinking i'm upset, with the further goal of manipulating others? do i really do anything just because i want to, or does everything i do have some sadistic hidden end goal? do i really like my friends and family, or am i subconsciously just using them? do i really have a conscience, or just a list of things i've learned to "feel" bad about to appear more human? if everything i feel is fake, does that mean i can just stop

It's a 'cover their ass' thing basically.LokiWolfbane wrote:When I was younger there was very few that did. Now it's pretty much every single one of them.LokiWolfbane : Some cartoons, even tv-shows, have a "don't try this at home" warnings it's nothing new
B/c if someone (especially kids who like to mimic what they see) DOES try to replicate something dangerous they saw on tv and they DO get hurt/cause someone else to get hurt or worse, it's possible that they could get like, sued. So if they throw a 'don't try this at home' disclaimer up they can turn around and go 'well we warned them and said not to do it'.
Even the Mythbusters have those warnings before/during/after their dangerous experiments.
People are, unfortunately stupid, so the warnings are needed.
Case in point, I was watching a video the other day debunking some "Cooking Crafts" and in it they mentioned a case (a very recent one) where a pair of teens copied a viral cooking video, which due to not doing it properly, resulted in the death of one of the girls. And the woman whose video they copied, or tried to copy) has received some massive backlash.
Just google 'chinese teen imitates viral video' and you'll find the articles.

Let me guess, it was one of the 5minute-crafts videos. Or a channel that works in a similar way.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
I just found out that I have been mispronouncing apropos for my entire life right now, thanks Merriam-Webster twitter...Honestly F*** the silent s, goddammit.
There are times that I just hate language in general, way too many rules for pronunciation & grammar for me to follow. (I found that there are so many words that I've only ever read before, but have been pronouncing their silent letters in real life, god).
The Merriam-Webster twitter is wonderful, however. I love their tweet about irregardless being a word, now deal with it. It gives me life (my boss is a #disirregardlesser).

Sometimes, life requires introspection. The questions of 'why am I here?', 'what is my purpose?' and 'why the hell are there clowns!?'. The important questions, obviously.

Actually it wasn't, surprisingly enough (but the video I was watching that mentioned this incident WAS debunking/exposing dangerous 5-Minute Crafts food videos)AssassinsCreed wrote:BBkat:
