I take it back. The German version of 99 red balloons is clearly superior.

Compared to the English Nena version or the Goldfinger version?

CatsCatsCats · « **Reply #541 on:** May 22, 2015, 10:03:55 AM »

English Nena version. Well, both though.

I was kinda worried that I had a heart attack in the past until I went to the ER for an injury. Not sure why they did an EKG but it was normal. Good to go. Bring on the stimulants

Just use the Latin iteration of that phrase instead Milchendoppelganger.

sometimes i wake up and groggily stumble to take my meds before i stumble into the shower. but then sometimes I take them after. I'm always terrified i'm going to take double the dose on accident and give myself a heart attack

my nicca don't scare me like this

I use a app called medisafe specifically to avoid this problem. it's great.

if you could only teach old people how to use apps it would solve so many of my problems

I wonder what would happen if I took too much of my cyberpunk antidepressant. I'm already on the max dose.

Aids, probably

No, that's not it. Really good German music, rare as it may be, can be really good. It just has to clear a higher hurdle.

Anyway, best German band, no question:

All on the same album, no less

One of my favorite bands -- but, seriously, how old are you? This band was high school for me.

That song played SO MANY TIMES on the radio that I can’t stand it any longer. I could probably sing it in English -or- German, I heard it so many times.

My fav German language song not found in a Brecht production.

Born in 87.
Can appreciate the classics tho. Was into 80s crap before it was cool and also after it's uncool again

Also, is everyone on the bore on meds? I feel weird now because my only meds are coffee and alcohol...

I'd rather be on coke or heroin than cyberpunk antidepressants and ludicrously expensive vitamins like Deplin, but sadly the big bad state thinks it understands my despair better than I do.

chronovore · « **Reply #558 on:** May 22, 2015, 06:59:53 PM »

I’m strictly coffee and alcohol as well. I don’t even do energy drinks these days.

CatsCatsCats · « **Reply #559 on:** May 22, 2015, 07:18:45 PM »

Coffee, whiskey, weed, mio -- these four pillars fuel my life

Kara · « **Reply #560 on:** May 22, 2015, 07:41:46 PM »

So glad to be Mio sober. Sleep is now something with a remote chance of occurrence instead of an impossibility.

This just screams for a remix or a cover.

Reminds me of something though:

Be careful what you wish for.

Huff · « **Reply #563 on:** May 23, 2015, 01:36:28 AM »

Cover letters are the worst. Especially in a time where everything is super competitive. It was probably my weakest part of the application but it wasn't from a lack of time or effort. probably cost me a couple interviews. hard to find a way to stand out when everyone has similar experiences and goals

Huff · « **Reply #564 on:** May 23, 2015, 01:51:52 AM »

I think the best advice for this shit, that I didn't do and wish I did, was to have all your references and influences review then. Mine were fine grammatically but had some rough spots in the actual content I didn't find out until afterwards

The last time I ran a hiring I only used the cover letter as a test to see if applicants would read the directions in the job posting.

Uhhh yeahhh I bought really expensive tea but don't have anything to measure temperature with for the water.

Pay more for an ounce of tea than an ounce of weed brehs (Image removed from quote.)

I hope to god this is an exaggeration

A coworker told me that he gets "really good" stuff for around $100/ounce where he lives in East Oakland. That's about 2/3 the lowest price I saw in Santa Cruz when I used to occasionally partake.

Absinthe suddenly seems cheap.

Weed prices definitely region and strength based so that shit is varied.

In the kitchen there's a bottle of Pliny the Elder ale.

BUT, as if knowledge that there's a fucking craft beer walking around running Pliny the Elder's good name into the ground wasn't bad enough, Pliny the Elder's label tells you that he was just a historical figure.

Not historic, HISTORICAL.

Fuck beer. That shit nourished my ancestors during slavery and you fucking cretins have ruined it.

If you need me I'll be in Val-de-Travers.

Jumping in a crisp Alpine lake.

Speaking of absinthe, I passed out with an ounce left unconsumed. Now my room stinks of absinthe and I have to pour this down the drain. At least it was just nu-Pernod Fils.

I know it's my ticket to a better paying job but holy fuck I'm so tired by the time the weekend hits that I can barely put a dent into it. $:-\$

You're working yourself to death to have a bunch of money, which you spend on F2P? That's a super struggle in my book.

Kara · « **Reply #583 on:** May 26, 2015, 01:50:53 PM »

I'm working myself to death to kill myself and to insulate myself from the real world because I'm done, the F2P monies are just a fringe benefit.

I use to do that until I realized my work sucked, then I lost all protection from having to think about the real world.

Never had that before in my life. Nearing 30 and the idea of having to actively consider more fiber is a weird thought.
