Random Rants : Bloody hell!

[Snerk]

I though you said you'd been on one date?

 

[Arakhor]

Well, I suppose going for a meal at your then-partner's home counts, but I was thinking more the "night out on the town" style, which shows just how little I actually know about relationships.

I'm now officially "in a state", so I'm definitely not showing up in Members' Photos any time soon.

 

[Snerk]

What state would that be then?

 

[Arakhor]

One where my hands are quivering and I need to go splash water on my face. I don't do emotion well.

Things happened, not sure if I'm okay with this, will react in a reasoned manner when sober.

Life always finds a way to remind you it's bad, doesn't it.

 

[jackelgull]

Went to a party and did things I regret. Want to bury my head in my hands now.

Join me in being a social exile! One Kindle and the complete collection of Discworld books on .pdf, and you'll need no more social contact!

Unfortunately, Kindles don't have food generators (btw have you read Terry Pratchett's Strata yet, Tolni?).

In any case, usually the first thing I regret when going to a party is that I went in first place. Which is why, instead of going to prom, I'll look for cheap ways to infiltrate Edinburgh without necessarily dying while doing them.

Cheap ways to infiltrate Edinburg? The best, cheapest and most efficient is to walk right in.

Also, go to prom. Free Rakija. And hopefully halva.

Walking from the prestigious town of Two Hills all the way to England sounds not very cheap. I was considering by train/boat/sneaking into a luggage compartment of an airplane.

I'm not a drinker and spending one more day more with my classmates than necessary is just awful. I'm not even starting on our prom vacation; 21 of my beloved classmates, trying to get drunk as possible and without the safe restraints of our school? Nah.

 

[jackelgull]

My best friend has been trying to convince me to go to prom. It's fifty dollars I don't want to spend though, and honestly, school has been an ambivalent experience for me. I'm still not sure how I feel about it, except that I'm leaving with a lot of regrets, and a lot of small victories which add up.

 

[gay_Aleks]

Also, hearing how much people spend on proms almost always brings me to infuriating rage.

You think it enrages you? I have a daughter and I'll be damned if I'm going to put myself in the poorhouse just so she can have an overly extravagant prom experience. Especially since just about everyone's high school experience, including prom, will be entirely forgettable in comparison to the rest of the life you will eventually have.

 

[gay_Aleks]

Oh, yeah.

Also: RIP dreams, history degrees don't matter and you're <fornicated> if you don't have an Informatics degree.

 

[JohannaK]

the new vicepresident and finance minister of Catalonia is a historian. There goes that.

The GIF says it all.

They ended up making a comeback in the second half and turning it from a total laugher to an actual game at the end, but they'd dug themselves into to deep a hole to get out of.
