Hermit Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 What is love without respect? Is it enough? And if you can't earn that respect, is the love really just a form of pity? tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 My depression usually first manifests as general lack of interest in things. I spent most of the weekend doing Nothing. That's capital N nothing as in actively doing Nothing and not merely the more passive not doing anything. I want at least two more days of it, too. I'm starting to get good. Sometimes I fantasize about being back in the hospital with nothing to do except lie there and recuperate. Then a nurse would come in every so often to give me something good through the IV.

Enforcer84 Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 Ah the Bittersweet feeling of finishing a game. Bought the DLC for Dragon Age: Inquisition. Stomped my way through the storyline because I must DO. ALL. THE. THINGS. and romanced my compatriot with awkward scenes between my dwarf and the human. And now I want moar. I will give them credit. The Trespasser credits (and there are a LOT) include a voice over by one of the characters rifling through a "romanticized" account of our adventures by one of our party. And she's getting very into it. And it ends with a bodice ripping portrayal of herself which leads to: "That little conniving dwarf! He...he...he put me in the book! I'm in the book! *squeal* I am reading the Sh-- out of this book!" I'm already planning my next playthrough. Hermit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narf the Mouse Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Unfortunately, the internet had nothing relevant for "implacable porpoise". Too bad; I was hoping for a funny pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 What a lot of drama today! First all the cars passing through the airport kept honking their horns continuously for a minute. Maybe there was a VIP; IIRC Pres. Obama had already left the Bay Area, but I did see a limousine. Then some idiot got on the bus and decided to stand, despite a number of seats being free. Then he fell when the bus made a turn. Of course, he blamed the driver. All this was on the way to work today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Last night I dreamed about my dogs, who passed away years ago. I still miss them after all this time. It felt good to cuddle them again, at least in my dreams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted April 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Stan Lee is coming for autographs and photos. I can't say I'm especially motivated to go see him, but it's a big event for the FLGS that was the epicenter of my social life for so many years. They just moved to a new location, so this ought to draw a few zillion new customers, and it'll be great for their business. I'm very happy for them.

Narf the Mouse Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 One day I will live in a clean house. I swear it. Oh, that's easy. "clean" is a heuristic approximation. Just set the threshold for a "true" value to some sufficient approximation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 President Obama has managed to annoy the leave Europe campaign by saying Britain should remain in the European Union.

Old Man Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 I made a conscious decision to stop reading newspaper funnies a couple of years ago. I don't miss them. I do miss not missing them. There are still a handful of decent strips out there, but not enough to justify having garbage delivered to my house every day. Don't get me started on the "news" in the newspaper. Cancer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 The Random Lyrics thread now has over 1,000 distinct lyrics. Admittedly 70% of this is my fault. But it has made me wrack my memory for music and called to mind The Kane Gang which was a nice reminder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
