Random Rants ΠΕ': You're standing on my neck.

What. The. Hell.

Anyways, a smallish rant: Due to all the universities closing down, turns out it also results in a reduced number of number of surveys I get. And of the ones I do get, most of them seem to be not that great (e.g. pre-screening questions or taking longer than the allocated time, which are both against Prolific's rules).

White people found the grocery store. Broke quarantine again to get food and the entire store was empty save for the posh stuff and some milk. Seems even the panic buyers aren't interested in $12 mini-loafs of 30-grain flax quinoa cage-free bread.

30-grain flax quinoa cage-free bread.

Putting bread in cages???

No antibiotics too!

I hope you picked up some GMO-free water.

I prefer GMO infused water, it's nice to have a bottle of water that talks to me.

It's snowing again.

I've just submitted two separate tickets to Big Fish Games for games that don't work properly. Nothing ever actually gets fixed; they just issue codes for other games. That's nice, but I'd prefer the games to work that I actually wanted.

A friend of mine is complaining to me about her boyfriend (who's a good friend of mine).
They're locked in together.
They're very different.
They problem is that they are very different.
She realizes that they are very different.
She still doesn't want to understand the solution to the problem.
Okay, TBH, breaking up and moving out is right now also not very smart, but still.
You know the problem. You must realize the solution. Stop complaining to me.

EDIT: While I'm happy to be distracted from the damn virus, a 40 minutes phone call with a crying girl was not exactly what I had in mind .

Cloudy skies today.

You already said this.

As mentioned in another thread, I'm working from home for the duration, which because I live in a moderately dense city, I'll be spending all but a few hours a week inside my flat.

Figuring that if I've got to live as a hermit, I should look like one, I've committed to not trimming my beard or for the duration. I should probably try to post "progress" pictures.

That's a rant?

Darn, this was supposed to be "random thoughts".

I blame cabin fever. It's only been one day, yet I have fallen deep into the grip of madness.

There's a typo in here that really tugs at curiosity; "committed to not trimming my beard or..." Or...what? Pinky nail, like back in the early coke days? Eyebrows? Back hair? The possibilities...

I was going to question you being your well-kempt version right now, and wanting to see what an unkempt TF would appear as, but IIRC you were forced to clean up due to the trappings of capitalism.

I love how a lot of us stay home all the time anyways, but the one time we need to do it we start going insane.

@Traitorfish please do post progress pics
