I love writing biology report. I really do. But, this physiology report is 15% of my grade and I find the planning of the experiment is stupid. Due date is on Thursday and I started to panic because I always finish my report 3 days prior the deadline and I have another exam on next week, and 2 more upcoming reports that is due next week as well. FML.

^I am a procrastinator too.

I remember sitting in my professor's office for Intermediate Macroeconomics on a Thursday [he always broke for tea time and I liked to join him] and I was just chatting away and then he asked: "are you ready for the exam?" I responded: "what exam?" He was appalled by my reaction but I still got a 92 on the exam.

Seth Bert...you just said...

Jason is always there in your darkest hour

YES?

Can we thus deduce that perhaps JASON

is your darkest hour?

The Devil made me ask that

Actually, it was more of a dare

 

[FuryOfFirestorm]

Jesus. Why don't you two just get a fucking room already.

 

[Lefty]

HEY!!!!!

Who said a Jinx had to be bad?

Mine is a lot of things...

But Bad ain't one of them​

It just sounds like your needs aren't getting met, Thrice.

Friendships are supposed to be a two-way street. It sounds as if your "friends" don't fully realize that.

I think you're right but it's kind of taken an interesting turn. My roommate and one of closer friends (who really pissed me off this weekend being a drunken asshole) just broke up with his fiancee. I think now's a better time to just be there as supportively as possible, and address problems if they come up later.

I like that my bosses at my store appreciate me, but please quit looking at me as if I single-handedly stopped the whole ship from sinking. Last night, it was Sunday night - the busiest, most crowded, most slammed night of the week for my supermarket - and all 3 evening cashiers and the evening front-end supervisor were scheduled to go home at 10pm, when there should be at least two cashiers scheduled until Midnight. So guess who ran this puppy flying solo until my help showed up late?

I radioed my overnight assistant manager for help - I had a line clean to frozen foods and growing all the way back to the pharmacy - clear across the damn building. He calls back, "But we don't have anybody." I look around, see people walking out the front door, and get an idea involving a semi-little white lie. "I'm seeing people walk out the store with merchandise and I'm tied down to a cash register with no way to stop them. We're losing money as we speak! DO SOMETHING!!!"

I saw folks go out the door, but who knows if they were actually stealing. But my tricking the manager to get him up there worked. The day assistant over the front-end is going to have to do something about Sunday nights. Don't ask me how, but I held it together. But last night can NEVER happen again! /tired as hell...

and on an unrelated note... I can't decide if I'm being a dick to my roommate or just having an appropriate reaction. he recently confessed to me that he's been in an exclusive relationship for the past 3 months. I'm feeling a mix of disappointment (that he felt like he couldn't talk about this with me) and annoyance (that he let me throw myself at him for 3 months, making me feel like a total chump).

I'm getting the feeling like he wants me to give my permission for the boyfriend to sleep over, but I'm not biting. mostly because I don't want a total stranger in my house (and it's bad enough having one freeloading roommate much less 2), but there's definitely an undercurrent of me just passive aggressively wanting to express my annoyance by not helping him.

on the better side, during honesty-palooza '13 (when he confessed to having a boyfriend and proceeded to unload 6 months worth of relationship drama on me, with the current guy and other guys he'd been dating and hiding from me) I told him how much it fucking annoyed me that he didn't pick up after himself. it's gotten me at least 3 days of him doing his dishes and taking out the trash

Couldn't you suggest that your room-mate move in with the guy he's in a relationship with?

I sliced my finger open on...a strawberry. And I think it's infected now. Dang.

Also, I finally watched the show mentioned in this thread, the Catfish one. Ugh. It's mostly the story of my relationship, with one crucial exception: I've actually met her. No more online dating, at least for a while.

it bothers the hell out of me when people don't take conversations to PM's instead of cluttering a thread.

Total truth. I don't mind their posts, so it's sad really, but I have ignored them.

Ouch! I always try to be really careful when I handle anything sharp. Put some anti-septic on and then bandage them and it will help heal up faster I have watch a few of the episodes as well and it's pretty depressing when people get cheated so deeply I have always been an honest person in real life and even online I don't see any reason to lie. There are always risks in online relationships.

 

[borg69unimatrix]

the boyfriend lives with his parents, and my roommate is crashing in my spare room, so the roomie's been complaining to me about how they can't find anywhere private (which I read as a hint to me to suggest that they come here, but I didn't take the bait... and passive aggressive Loki has been a little cagey about telling my roommate in advance when I'm not going to be there, because I'm not sure how comfortable I am with the idea of him inviting his boyfriend (who I've never met) over to the house while I'm staying over somewhere else)

they're both pretty much dirt broke and neither has a car, even god bless them both, but I don't know how either one is putting up with the situation.

I'm the same way... if anyone is going to have sex in my house/apt./bed... it's going to be ME, dammit !

 

[refujiunderground]

well, loki, if him and his man wants to have sex, there's always the park bench. *shrugs* jersey city has many of them. if they really want to do it badly, they'll figure something out. that's not your problem. you already gave him some place to crash his head.

anyways, haven't gone over to that group therapy spot in three weeks and i dunno if i'll be going back. i just think it's a waste of time. it's like i'm spending more time, getting up and getting ready to go there then being in the group. it's stupid, really. depending on the amount of people that show up, we have to share all our problems that happened to us within the past week in one hour. on top of that, it also depends on how someone's problem is where they need feedback and etc. you know, i'm a shy guy as it is and there's some things that i'm scared to say in a room full of people such as being gay and coming out. i wanted to reveal that i was gay but after hearing some of the group getting all religious, talking about "god's going to work it out". i was like "okay, i don't want to reveal that." there's just some things that i would rather share with someone where only that person knows and not 5 other people.

 

[borg69unimatrix]

having to track down the ignore list to add someone(s) on JUB seems convoluted.

/rant

Just click their user name, view their profile, and there's an ignore button on that screen you can click on under their avatar.

 

[refujiunderground]

fucking hate how my armpits and how they stink even when i give myself a good rubdown in the shower. yesterday and earlier, i was smelling like fucking onions. now i smell like raisin bran. WHAT THE FUCK!!! and i'm running out of deodorant. i hope walmart has some on sale picking up my prescription.

after reading over that "how do you sleep thread" where some people said about sleeping naked, sleeping shirtless, or dressing up to bed, i've decided that i'd try to sleeping naked again nd have done so for three nights. it's actually better than the last time i did it some years ago where it felt all as hell uncomfortable and i was paranoid that someone would walk in on me naked. at least i don't wake up all sweaty compared to how i am sleeping with clothes. it's cool except waking up in the morning where it's cold as shit. with that said, I FUCKING HATE SWEATING IN MY SLEEP. there's nothing worse waking up all sweaty in clothes waking up, feeling like you just jumped out the shower. easiest way to catch a cold. dunno if whether i should continue sleeping naked, sleeping without a shirt since the most annoying part about sleeping with clothes on is waking up with a wet shirt or giong back to sleeping with my thermal pajama top/bottom or regular shirt/bottom.

all right done with rant.

 

[bankside]

I either like people enough not to ignore them, or dislike them enough not to ignore them. The bland middle ground is small, and I prefer to use the "ignore" function built into my brain.

 

[The Fly]

I've never been tempted to use the ignore button, Some people are funny, some are obnoxious, others just bland, but you never know when someone will add something useful.

 

[pat grimshaw]

I give people the benefit of the doubt for six months or so before I put them on ignore.

 

[xbuzzerx]

Wow page 59 got wasted.

 

[EuroSoccer]

I really don't see the point of the ignore thingy.
If I don't like someone I still want to read what they say and see how low they can go on my popularity list.
Plus I do change my mind quite often on people.
In the last few weeks I started to like 2 Jubbers I thought were complete twats.

Generally though I like people, I appreciate everyone is different and has something to offer, so if I had an ignore list it would not be very long.
