Kafka man the fuck up.

Life is hard? It's hard for everyone. Because we're all a bunch of whiners that wants life to be easier\better\richer\whatever.

Poor Kranz Fafka. 

You bastard...you're supposed to come here and say something like "Don't worry my friend, the only thing you need to know to do well on your finals is that you should never go to class and instead play Beatles Rock Band all day."   and then I read it, realize how simple it all is, then have a montage where I put the secret to work and get straight As.

I need a montage  :'(

hope that helps.

I got furniture!  And found my phone!

Using the web on my phone, it's pretty badass.

christ i am such a fucking nerd sometimes

[Fresh Prince]

Ha I thought you were seeing a real Bishop like to get married or something.

[tiesto]

Will do, I'm not too familiar with the band (her friend from work invited her, and she invited me along), apparently they have an XBLA indie marketplace game to download.

Meanwhile, I'm continuing to read a blog I believe I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Fabulous Adventures in Coding by Eric Lippert. http://blogs.msdn.com/ericlippert/default.aspx

I swear, if you ever want to feel like a complete idiot in the area of your chosen profession, find a blog like this one in your field. From the posts themselves to the comments, I feel like an imbecile.

[brawndolicious]

fuck, I just took an organic chemistry test and I might have pooped it.  Out of 12 questions, I had no idea AT ALL how to do one of them (showing how 6-pentenol mixed with sulfuric acid reacts) but she might drop that question since most other people also had no idea what that was.  Another 4 questions could go either way since I had to half-guess some things.

It sucks because I spent the last week studying 3-5 hours a day, more time than I have ever spent studying for something, and I might still bomb it.

This reminds me of the movie Road Trip where the protagonist had a huge exam to take in 5 hours, and his intellectual stoner friend taught him an entire semesters worth of material using nothing but wrestling metaphors.  Too bad Malek doesn't follow wrestling, I guess.

[The Fake Shemp]

...I liked it.  I genuinely enjoyed it.  I want to see the next one.  Ha!

[Madrun Badrun]

I feel like I am dead.  With the bags under my eyes I half look like it too.   :'(

how does one go about finding a good psychiatrist?  or can psychologists prescribe stuff too now...?

I'm sure there's a counselor at your law school that can refer you to someone.

I was running today and, just when I was getting in the deer-runner-mode, I tripped and fell on my ass. In the distance, two complete strangers saw and started laughing at me. I then limped away in humiliation.   :'(

[Diunx]

A really fat dude just came into the room, god he is fat.

[Bocsius]

Fat guy is fat, more at 11.

[Diunx]

A hot girl came in!

can psychologists prescribe stuff too now...?

No. Not yet, at least.

I had a small stumble today with people watching too.  Let's make out.

If only they knew you provide them with the freedom to laugh at people

For PD:

- I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink
to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start fire with flint and
sticks when they've invented the lighter?

[FlameOfCallandor]

Does anyone havea  Droid? Dell is doing a deal to get it for $120. I'm thinking about grabbing it.

[CajoleJuice]

Good luck, man. Sure you'll do fine.

I can't stop buying stuff this week.

I've made three Amazon orders just over $25 (super saver shipping plz), bought Assassin's Creed 2, and subscribed to The Economist. Fuck. I barely bought anything for months and now I'm making up for it, I guess.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

The ride home from work today was pure hell.

Something is fucked up with my car.  Every once in a while, it locks up, with the battery light and oil light on at the same time.  I have trouble steering, accelerating, or braking (which is the worrying part) when they all light up.  Fuck.  Normal drive home is about 15 minutes but with all of that shit, it took about 45 minutes.

I can't look at the car now as it is dark.  I'll try my luck to see if I can find anything up with it tomorrow.

Drinking is not fun, sorry. It's nothing more than a more accepted form of peer pressure. If I want to drink fermented piss I'll do so, but not because everyone tells me it tastes good.

[fistfulofmetal]

Having to drink to have fun is pathetic and means you're a boring person.

[Himu]

It's not "have" to drink. You don't "have" to do anything. It's quite the opposite really. Drinking RESULTS in fun, and if you deny that YOU are the boring person.

[chronovore]

It's OK not to drink. Some people don't like the stuff either for taste or effect, and if they drink they -are- just submitting to peer pressure. Let everyone do what works for them.

What alcohol have you drank before? Miller Lite?

[Phoenix Dark]

Drinking doesn't result in fun. Meh fuck this discussion. I'm drinking minute made lemonade and playing WoW. Having fun. If you guys want to drink whatever, I feel bad for you. Oh wait I don't

Party time? 

[Phoenix Dark]

Thing is while nobody should be peer pressured into drinking, you do have to except you will miss out on a big part of social life this way.

You're trying to pressure me right now with the "oh yer gonna miss out on things!" bit, which is a lie to begin with.

and no I don't think drinking is some moral issue. I don't look down on drinkers

[CajoleJuice]

He's not missing out on anything by not drinking. He's missing out by playing WoW.

[Himu]

You didn't answer my question. What is your exposure to alcohol? If it's nothing but cheap beers like Miller Lite, that answer is not good enough.

[Phoenix Dark]

Mainly scotch, vodka, hard mikes, and some other stuff I don't remember

[Don Flamenco]

drinking is cathartic.

[Robo]

Minutemade Lemonade with a Sweet Tea flavored vodka is sublime.  Highly recommended.

Wikipedia tells me this combination is called a "John Daly" or a "Dirty Arnold Palmer".

[Himu]

Getting drunk feels good. You don't need to masturbate or watch porn either, but it feels good when your penis snot comes out. It feels good when you drink a few brews too, like you've jacked off except your whole body feels that way. Nothing wrong with that.

[Himu]

I don't like hard stuff by itself, so I always mix it. Try a White Russian, or Whiskey mixed with some coke. Delicious.

yes, you need to masturbate or else you start having wet dreams and you get tense.

With the exception of the word "Whiskey," everything else you posted was dripping with gay subtext.

[Himu]

Himuro, when did you start drinking?

I used to drink quite often at parties, and I recently got back into it after shunning religion.

Maurice, give me your address and I'll ship you a bottle of Mint Chocolate Baileys as a Christmas e-bro present.

I've never gotten drunk  either and am against drinking.  Prove me wrong by sending me alcohol!

Now we have more peer pressure. Himu likes to drink stuff that (allegedly) tastes good, therefore he likes "girly" drinks? smh

No. White Russian is in no way girly, neither is whiskey and coke.

lol.  I think you misread T EXP's post.

[Don Flamenco]

I had to read it a few times...

[Himu]

I bet if we had an EB meet up we would get shitfaced.

Chocolate mint Baileys though Himuro, now thats pretty girly 

spoiler (click to show/hide)

I like Malibu Seven Up  :'(

[close]

mix up the baileys with something else

I'm all about liqueurs, dude. Favorite type of drink, especially CREAM based liqueur.

[demi]

Nothing wrong with drinking stuff that tastes good. Alcohol is disgusting, and if you can cover that up why wouldnt you drink it?

WHY ARE YOU LISTENING TO KOSMA IN THE FIRST PLACE

Dude is like a compass point to WRONG

Same goes for Himuro. Dude doesnt even KNOW what he likes. Flip flop to the max, bro.

[fistfulofmetal]

I look down on drinkers. Sad, hollow individuals.

anyway, the flavored parts of kahlua, bailey's, etc. doesn't cover up the alcohol at all-- it still has a nice sting.
