  • My cousin's wedding is the weekend of Connecticon and I have to go.
    Wait a minute. Doesn't your mother know that you have panels to give and this means a lot to you?

    This isn't just my mom, it's my entire family.

    I point out that family is family. Doesn't matter shit what his Ma thinks, this is his cousin's wedding. You go to your cousin's wedding. Hell, I got bitched out for not going to my cousin's wedding, and I'm on the other side of the planet.

    I would agree. I love to talk about geeky stuff, but family always takes precedence over geeking out-- even on a large scale.

    I can't argue as they are indeed sound points and I too believe that family is more important than geeking out. I admit that I sort of made myself look bad and saw this from the wrong angle, but I'm of the mind that there are a lot of things that sometimes supercede family. Whether or not you agree with my viewpoints, I think we can generally agree however that this particular situation isn't one of them.

    You spoke without thinking about it too much about it, It's something we're all guilty of, fugeddaboudit.

    Holy shit, for a second I really thought that was my old roommate.
  • Double fail -

    I picked up my iphone 3g while it was plugged into the computer, and felt the familiar tingle of a 5-volt boot of juice.

    Second fail - I've taken enough electrical shocks that a constant 5-volt boot is nothing more than a tingly annoyance.
  • 5 volts is actually enough to shock you?

    It's enough to feel it, unless it's really low amps - the power from USB will give you an angry tingle, but not much more, like a little ant bite. Now, the last time I got seriously shocked, I was moving the old oven, and the electric starter wire was loose - 240 volt, 50Hz, not much more than a tingly arm and a lot of swearing. Two times before that, Homebuilt taser, which was enough to knock me out once.

  • I go upstairs to get breakfast this morning, and hear cheesy pre-teen pop blasting from the TV. I turn the corner and ask my mom what she's watching, to which she responds "The Hannah Montanna Movie". I say nothing, just raise a skeptical eyebrow, and she proceeds to get indignant and tell me she LOVES Hannah Montanna and then begins to cry.
    I... I don't even.
  • Sounds like female issues, best to run away.
  • Actually, this isn't terribly unusual for her. This is the same person who told me I should marry Josh Groban, then broke down and cried about how ALL RELATIONSHIPS EVER are a terrible idea and I should NEVER DATE AGAIN. She also took me to the doctor yesterday only to get angry because they didn't put me on antibiotics (because I show no signs of a bacterial infection), so she called the doctor after we got home and when told they couldn't release my medical information to her without my consent, woke me from my sick sleeping state and got me on the phone only to pick up the other handset and completely ignore medical laws by listening in/arguing with the doctor again, effectively just using me.
    There are many other hilariously hypocritical/crazy gems from her, it's pretty typical. She's insane. I'd probably find it more funny than anything if it weren't for the fact it's my mother and I have to deal with her/have her be a part of my life.
  • I... I don't even.
    My sentiments exactly. Well, it would be if I was neck deep in diazepam, and the distinct feeling of confusion and that strange, skin-crawly feeling you get from crazy people was only a distant memory because I was so face-meltingly stoned that I couldn't feel feelings anymore.

    ... You and I.... we share very much the same life. I feel for you deeply.

    Can I assume this is NSFW?

    It's "safe," but you really don't want to click it.

    It's worth clicking on.

    I am more sad than disgusted, and I'm sort of hoping this is a joke and not a serious attempt at dressing up. Dayam.
  • Ew.
    You know what? I'm all for it. People should dress up in whatever dumb way makes them feel good. I can't say shit, I used to have a blue mohawk.
  • Ew.
    Hey, give credit where credit is due, some of those outfits are creative and fun. The only things that really seem off to me are the long toenails, the glorification of "pimps," and slutty clothes on minors. However, none of those gripes are about anything that hurts anyone else (at least not directly), so who cares?

    Also, I wore a Renaissance dress to one of my proms and my date wore a silver lame tux (that he owned for some unknown reason), and we had a blast!
  • Ew.
    I get these sorts of chain emails at least once a month from various coworkers. As tacky as it is and a good laugh, people like what they like. At least they look they are enjoying themselves.
  • Left my knitting bag at work. >.<

    I could go buy more needles.
