Random talk thread: It just keeps happening

[Cindi Mayweather]

That doesn't tell me whether I should or shouldn't get the vaccine.

And I know exactly how inoculation works. Jesus fuck why do I ask this place for advice? Forget it.

[fistfulofmetal]

if you got out a lot and interact with a lot of people and don't want to take the risk of getting the flu from doing that, then getting the shot is probably a good idea.

What's worse getting avian flu or whatever mild version they got on tap at Walgreens?

[Cindi Mayweather]

I'm a round a lot of people. But I'll likely get the flu anyways due to how vaccination works. But if swine flu is a mutation of regular flu, surely taking a vaccination - which will give you flu - increases your risks.

THESE TWO SENTENCES CAME FROM THE SAME PERSON.

[fistfulofmetal]

someone should take everything himu has posted in the last 20 minutes ITT and make a gaf thread using it so we can then complain about it in the Gaf thread here.

[CatsCatsCats]

I mean, it's kinda up to you. Getting innoculated doesn't make you impervious to all strains of the flu, but it could drastically reduce symptoms if you do pick it up. I personally don't get innoculated but I'm very careful with hand washing / face touching / hand shaking / door knobs / etc.

[CatsCatsCats]

Been a long ass time since I had the flu, if it ain't broke..

But I do see the validity of that statement.

[G The Resurrected]

I'm spending the night in the cold. Yeah today sure has sucked. 

[Mupepe]

Don't do it.

[chronovore]

Do it, but realize the drama is all up to her. If you want to supply her with what she needs, do it for yourself, not for her.

Also, yes: avoid fast food.

[CatsCatsCats]

Chobani yogurts are so, so good.

Wrath, just talk to her, man. You don't have to let it derail that positivity.

[StealthFan]

I never get flu shots, and I never get the flu. That's what happens when you spend a huge portion of your life living in filth and squalor

[Fifstar]

Hand washing is something you do to help others, not yourself. The best thing for your immune system is constant contact.

Um, wouldn't constant contact while in times of a flu 'epidemy' just increase your chances of getting infected? Makes sense that being around lots of people would harden your immune system in general but if you expose yourself purposely to flu viruses you'll just get sick, no?

[Rufus]

Also, that shit mutates. There's a reason they tell people to get flu shots every year.

I never get flu shots, and I never get the flu. That's what happens when you spend a huge portion of your life living in filth and squalor

Or indoors in front of a screen for 95% of the time.

[brob]

"filth and squalor" and "indoors in front of a screen for 95% of the time" are not all that mutually exclusive

[Rufus]

...You make a good point.

[fistfulofmetal]

ugh my mom said she got me something for christmas.

she never does. we never buy each other things. i only buy things for the kids in the family.

now i have to buy her something and i have no idea what

[Madrun Badrun]

Get her copious amounts of butt plugs.  If she's not into it, tell her it's a joke. 

[Huff]

One of my aunts decided that we needed to have a secret santa this year, got my sister and finding a present for her was a nightmare, ended up buying her some earrings that a chick at the office said looked nice

[Mupepe]

1) pics of sister?

2) pics of chick from office?

3) chola earrings??

[Mupepe]

A lot of OCD happens in your own head. I have light OCD issues and its mostly second guessing and repetitive routines that I go through in my head before I make decisions.

Night two of living on the streets. It got super cold last night.

wtf? If this is due to being kicked out by Roxy, at some point you have to stand up for yourself dude.

can't you get a hotel?

[Shadow Mod]

I fly out tomorrow. I'm excited but flying sucks. Oh well least I get to spend time with pops before he goes into treatment.

She went crazy on me and since my bank was closed today I couldn't do anything. Top that with the stupid $100 withdrawal limit from the recent Target hack and you have the reason I'm out in the cold. Tomorrow I have to figure this shit out. It sucks but what can I do? She's reacting to the stresses of this week differently.

[Sausage]

So those shrooms I was talking about like a month ago ... its' going down. Like in 5 hour. Now I'm gonna have to come up with an excuse for ducking out of the house before sunrise.

At this point it's on you. I may be stepping out of bounds, but I get the impression you stay with someone like that because you don't think you can find anyone else. That's no excuse to let some mentally unstable pos abuse you. You have disposable income, cut ties and focus on yourself. Whether that's losing weight or something else, you can do anything you work hard at.

I guarantee you'll be better off without her baggage.

[nudemacusers]

just me and I don't know the full context or situation, but if my wife pulled that kind of shit on me I would be out.

[Shadow Mod]

I don't want to be insensitive or whatever but the fuck man she has no right to do this to you. If someone is upset you don't kick someone you love out on the street.

[nudemacusers]

pretty much, I could never do this. and for two nights.

[G The Resurrected]

I don't think she had the intention to be this harmful towards me. She had no idea I'd be facing these type of challenges. It's really just one huge fucking disaster. If my credit card worked I would just stay somewhere else and give her time away from me. I'm not insensitive to the fact that this has been caused by the events of this week. She's not mentally healthy already and to have to deal with the stresses of this week I'm surprised we both survived. I'm realizing that my life is very fragile and I don't have a good support system. It's what happens next that dictates where I'll end up. I'm glad I was done working before all this shit happened. I got a blanket from target and some hand warmers so I should be able to last the night.

[nudemacusers]

I'm lost, can't you knock on the door and tell her it's cold outside? Is she screening your calls?

[G The Resurrected]

She hasn't answered the door or the phone since yesterday for me. I know she's ok cause the Christmas lights have been turned on both nights. She just needs a break and doesn't want to deal with anyone. Hence why she was so hostile with me. She doesn't know how to communicate her feelings nor how to deal with them, she's very emotionally immature.

dude, that's fucked up. i mean jesus christ.

I guess I've never gotten in a severe fight with my wife because I've never so much as slept on the couch, let alone outside the house. The former is lame, the latter says 'time to go our separate ways'.

[G The Resurrected]

I know it's not really her that's in control but her mental issues. It's hard to have to deal with, and I know she is better than this. I talked to someone today at a mental health emergency clinic. They agreed that she most likely has shut down emotionally and will need help when she is ready. They called her and reached out so she knows there are others besides my self that want to help her through this. I was told that if she doesn't make contact with anyone in a few days that I should call the police for a welfare check. That might accelerate her getting some care to help her. We've had our fair share of problems, but nothing like this. I know this isn't the person I love right now and it hurts a lot knowing there's little I can do about it. She's better than this and by her not fighting and just giving in to ot, I worry about the future of my relationship.

fuck her.

If you want to keep being with someone who has no problem abusing you, I don't know what to tell you.

[Shadow Mod]

I've been really upset with a boyfriend before but you don't kick someone out of the house. And you certainly don't let them kick you out. I don't even know why you're bothering with this person. I get it you care, but we care about you and you should care about you too. You're better than this. You helped her father as much as you possibly could, you do what she wants, but come on bro she's a fucking douchebag. You can't let her hide behind her issues when she's treating you like absolute shit.

[nudemacusers]

I think it's noble/moral/whathaveyou to accept someone's mental health issues for better and worse, and even taking on some unpleasant personal outcomes in the process.

there is not much value in being treated like garbage, though.

[G The Resurrected]

The problem is this isn't a thing that happens all the time. There are weeks and months that have gone by without incident. But if something triggers her it gets really bad really quick. It would help if she wasn't so against seeing someone to get the help she needs. I know I can't save her from herself. I've also learned to leave so I'm not a target for her to come at. It's unfortunate that the events that happened were so devastating to her already f fragile mental condition. It takes a strong person to go through what we've done this week and not let it affect you and your life. I care about myself, if I didn't I would of been crazy long ago. I went and saught out help for myself too.

[nudemacusers]

dude you're sleeping outside in the cold

[G The Resurrected]

Yeah I know, I may go back and see if she'll let me in. But I fear shell just be passive aggressive towards me and that will breed into her getting physically violent since I'm an easy target to vent her rage at. I don't want to be out here any longer than I need to be. It's not fun knowing there's no where to go to. I don't even feel like I have a home to go back to right now.

[nudemacusers]

you can care about someone, and help them, and still realize that being in a relationship with them is damaging to you as a person.

i mean you're basically saying right now that you'd rather sleep outside in the balls-ass cold than bother to go home because you're afraid she'll get violent and you don't want to deal with that potential level of confrontation. that to me doesn't really sound like a good relationship, sounds like my parents, actually.

edit: actually now that I think about it i've slept in a car as a kid a few times because of shit like this. it sucked and was terrible. why would you let this happen to you as an adult?

[StealthFan]

Where exactly are you sleeping my nig? You don't have an overnight shelter anywhere within reason?
 
Or you can break in where you live and lock the bedroom door. Not to sound like an internet tough guy or anything but being afraid of violence from a woman that doesn't lift weights or know how to kickbox is pretty bitchmade.

I would advise against actually falling asleep in the cold if you're a novice. Get up every hour or so and move your body to create natural warmth.

[Shadow Mod]

If someone refuses to get themselves help for some mental issues that leave you homeless every couple of weeks/months you should absolutely not be in a relationship with them.

Ol girl hit him with a frying pan last time. That could definitely be construed as assault with a deadly weapon. Youre calling him a bitch but domestic violence is tricky. Say she tries to hurt him and and there's a struggle. He could get hit with a charge, she seems nuts enough to actually claim he started and escalated the violence. He's actually doing probably the best thing he can. Well. Not the not breaking up with her thing.

well if getting beat on with a frying pan didn't do it some cold won't either.

[Shadow Mod]

She's physically abused him too?

I know we're piling on but since that physical threshold has been crossed I worry about your safety now.

 

[brawndolicious]

Honestly, it sounds like she just enjoys hurting you. Hitting you and throwing you out and then going on with her regular day-to-day even when she knows that you and the mental health counselor are trying to reach out to her. It doesn't sound like you can really rely on her to give you help and support through life, and maybe ultimately when she does something truly unforgivable you'll suddenly realize that but as it is right now, the relationship you're describing doesn't sound like she's a person who's in love with you.

I'm sorry and I'm not trying to judge you, but it just sounds like trying to continue a relationship with a person like this is impossible.

[Sausage]

Alright I downed that shit

[Rufus]

I love the mushroom subplot in this thread.

[Sausage]

Aaaand I'm off into another planet.

[StealthFan]

Ingest hallucinogenics and post on the internet, brehs.

[G The Resurrected]

Not to ignore any of your guys posts, I truly am appreciative all of the suppor t you guys have given me in the past and now. Things went down last night. She barricaded the door, turned on all the lights, and has had music blasting away since I came by. I was able to get my keys so I've got transportation now. I called to have a peace officer show up as she is completely unstable. I'm going to the office to have them assist so we don't damage the property. I told myself enough was enough, being out in the cold for no damn good reason before Xmas ain't no way to live. I'm waiting to go back over there thankfully Starbucks staff have been nice enough to feed me and give me warm drinks.

[Mupepe]

Good for you bro.  Homegirl has never been very nice to you.  Look at the posts she made on here for evidence of that. 

[Joe Molotov]

Damn G, I hope things work out for you. That's some bullshit that no one should have to put up with.

[nudemacusers]

Well I hope you mean it, you should never tolerate that kind of behavior in a relationship, regardless of circumstance.

she posts here?

I'm callin bullshit, Bz. You sounded just fine when we played Blacklist. It sounded like Roxy wanted to suck your cock right there, but you were shrugging her off to play videogames with me instead.
