Please share your struggle of the day

More like 21 

Anyways, I'm sure it's tough as shit to deal with, but my dad has always been a shit father to me (he's done much better with my brother) and it just kinda adds to it, I guess

Ah, OK. I’m not going to go all AiA on you and tell you not to judge stuff you haven’t experienced. I do hope you will look back on this thread and giggle at yourself once you’re married and she’s becoming hysteric and irrational from runaway hormones compounding natural fear of mortality. It’s... not fun.

Asking honestly, not calling you out: How did you deal with your pregnant wife?

My wife was super chill in her pregnancy

Last stretch she had pains and she wa annoyed she couldnt do all the stuff we normally do

Pretty sure you’re the rare case. Most of my friends had rough patches similar to mine. I’m sure every woman is a unique snowflake when it comes to handling pregnancy, maybe yours is extra special?

I was the same way. After I had the baby, it I felt like Festivus' Airing of Grievances. I had a lot of problems with people and now they were going to hear about it.

[Kara]

Went to the ice cream shop with my gal friend today because it's Nineteen fucking Fifty and the fucking teen at the register assumed we were a couple and slapped me with the bill for both of us.

[Beezy]

Damn, both Esch and Wrath almost got Ricky'd?

[Rufus]

I'm beginnig to think any and all assumptions are bad.

[Beezy]

Even your snacks?!

I'd be legit sad if someone robbed me for my gummy bears.

Nicking Doritos at gunpoint... the depravity of America before the release of Doritos tacos at Taco Bell. :geoff

Is the Festivus still on cause I wanna join

[Am_I_Anonymous]

Kids.

That is all.

[Am_I_Anonymous]

I really think it's time I moved out of this town. Not cause someplace else will be much safer, just that I'm not exactly a fan of the red state small town mentality. 99% of my friend's are gone for good, a lot of why I enjoyed living here had a lot to do that. Fell out of love with the bar scene, don't think the romantic prospects are high at all, and just flat out don't really enjoy living here.

I always moved without staying somewhere too long, ever since I was a kid. And I feel like that mentality stuck with me. Don't like to be in the same place for too long, especially now since most people have moved on. And due to my city kid self I kind of miss being in one. Haven't decided where yet, but I'll find somewhere to go.

Overall, there's a bit too much dissatisfaction on my end. While moving might be a superficial change, it's definitely a change I really want to make.

Clearly feeling your nomadic roots. Start a caravan and just travel around the country!

[Cerveza mas fina]

Stay somewhere and grow roots wrath

Stay somewhere and grow roots wrath

Nah, he's young enough to not yet realize that no matter where you go it's always the same. Let him do his thing.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Sure, it's not like he will take my advice anyway.

Sometimes you do hit a good place though, meet the right people, don't fuck up then and try to stick around.

They were my favorite too. Cool ranch

Life was rough before the spicy sweet chili flavor dropped

Wait, they don't make cool ranch anymore?

[Am_I_Anonymous]

Wait, they don't make cool ranch anymore?

Nah they still do. Just saying they were my favorite (before the spicy chili flavor) and that dude stole them from me

LOL ganked for 20 dollars and a sack of doritos. I might have shot you for having gummy worms though

[Cerveza mas fina]

I like doing inbound sales and stuff, but now all I do is call people.

 

I should have been smart and study something related to IT like I wanted as a kid. Had to study history though cause shit was interesting LOL. Also at the time people thought you'd get a cool job regardless of your study. LOL @ early 2000's

ALLERGIES.

Last two days, the allergen report shows the western half of Japan in the worst portion of their gauge. All red. I’m waking myself up with sneezes during the night. When the alarm rings, I’ve got swollen eyelids. Bloody noses happening.

The pollen in this country can go fuck itself.

[brob]

hang in there.jpg

considering you got insects like these I would not be surprised if the pollen looked like hail

[dkdk]

all my work buddies are leaving me.

its like a rat race to get out for the young folks lmao.

[I'm a Puppy!]

Youngest is way sick, poor kid. I hope he gets better soon.

[chronovore]

Thanks.

Actually, if the pollen were hail-sized, it wouldn't get up my nose as much. We've also got "PM 2.5" in abundance, which apparently makes allergies even worse, as the particulate matter acts as a pre-irritant and enhances allergic reactions. 

I've seen those bees before. I don't know why that guy's got one on his hand; they can sting multiple times, and more than once can hospitalize or kill the victim.

[Tasty]

I'm considering it, actually. Been on the west coast quite a few times, same with the south and now the north. So might as well go east.

Does it waft over from China?

[Cerveza mas fina]

Do you have any other allergies chrono?

Whats wrong?

[Kara]

I finished setting up my Strava profile and for my bio I used a foreign language literary pun / reference. This seemed both perfectly fine and completely amusing to me at the time.

[Kara]

An app for people who care too much about running and biking. I just wanna know how fast I'm riding so I can make sure I end up as road kill instead of an N-plegic.

The prevailing wisdom is that it's wafting from China due to all their polluting factories. Japanese people like to talk about it a lot and then order more crates of cheap crap for their hundred-yen shops.

Do you have any other allergies chrono?

Just hay fever, and I'm not even clear what pollen is affecting me. It's various grasses in the USA, and it appears to be cedar here. Lately I have a little reaction to cat-households as well, but it's minor.

[I'm a Puppy!]

Just a huge fever and lethargy. Nothing serious. But he's totally wiped out.

[Kara]

I laughed at too many of the telegraphed jokes in this. http://www.mhpbooks.com/communist-bracketology-an-exclusive-interview-with-the-creators-of-marx-madness/

Is there a prize, other than the confidence in the collective intellectual defeat of one’s rivals past, present, and future?

The prize is self-satisfaction and the confirmation that you were right—there is no better prize for a Marxian intellectual.

It's FUCKING BULLSHIT that both Bukharin and Hobsbawm got bounced in the first round, BTW.

[CatsCatsCats]

Rewards are bullshit we've been programmed to think we deserve by our punitive justice society

Paypal account was hacked and the fucker bought 180$ worth of bluetooth headphones, guess it could've much worse

Save your card information on your account brehs 

[Kara]

While cultural Marxism is certainly a go-to epithet for (particularly European) reactionaries, concepts like the right to the city prove more and more pertinent as urban areas are continually reduced yuppie lebensraum across the world.

Yeah, I have had PayPal forever, but have been unwilling to associate card information with it.

restraining myself from binge-watching Utena any more than I've already done today (4 episodes).

[Madrun Badrun]

Tried to get out of meeting with my supervisor so I could go back to bed and sleep depressively but got back a pretty strong reply saying to be at his office.  I so want to quit gradschool but I'm stuck until at least may in order to get my masters and really I should stay longer to finish up stuff and find a job.  But every day is a damn struggle.

So inMails you receive in Sales Navigator on Linkedin don't go to your normal inbox but to the Sales Navigator inbox that doesn't show up on you main page.

Just found a message of a client I approached from 17 days ago

 

[ToxicAdam]

Forgot to put out the garbage this morning. Now I have to live with Monday night's chicken scraps for another week.

[Madrun Badrun]

run home and put it in a neighbours bin that is still out.

That sucks.

It also reminds me I logged into LinkedIn yesterday

[Kara]

Saw a handwritten invoice (lol) where the net box was filled in with "due 10 days" instead of just "10".

[Steve Contra]

I get handwritten invoices I can't read airmailed all the time three months after I was supposed to pay the person and they won't answer a simple email like "how much do I owe you".

[fistfulofmetal]

this move to NYC is gonna drain so much money from me i'll be digging myself out for a pretty long time

[TakingBackSunday]

got an official reprimand at work today for raising valid complaints about our work schedule and how its affecting our staff.  70 hour work weeks the past month.

yeahhhh I'm out

[Huff]

Have a new job lined up yet?

[TakingBackSunday]

Making the preparations for that.  Have an interview with a different tech company on Tuesday.

[dkdk]

it's tournament time and my boss came at me like i'm really supposed to get shit done thurs and fri 
it's like they learned nothing from the acc tournament last week.

nah man finish that shit. then watch the movie for maximum 

[chronovore]

Good for you!

This may seem like a no-brainer, but when you’re talking with the next company, stay positive about the previous company during the interview.

I had this one bite me in the ass a couple years ago. Everyone knows if you’re leaving, things are less than great, and staying positive will win you more points than being candid.
