Random Rants XLVII: I don't like food anymore!

[NickyJ]

I decided to see what the "Today's Top Hits" are on Pandora. I've never tried it before. So far, I've disliked ten out of the first eleven songs on it. I'm not quite sure whether it's a rant or a rave.

Edit: Make that eleven for twelve.

Ah...OK...rugby league...I see.

I've no idea what "Today's top hits on Pandora" even is, but I'm pretty sure neither Elvis, The Ramones or Miles Davis ever featured there.

Vomiting is so much fun.

Justin Timberlake, David Guettes, will.i.am, Bruno Mars, Krewella, Kelly Clarkson, Avril Lavigne, Kings of Leon, Olly Murs, Pink, and Lady Gaga.

I can't take it anymore. They can have their top hits.

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

I can take or leave most of 'em, but Timberlake's the real deal (and no, I'm not being sarcastic).

 

[Takhisis]

Rule changes designed to reduce the inherent violence in the egghand codes, whilst admirable, suck balls.

I completely understood this the first time around, why do people need a translation? I don't even speak Australian.

Vomiting is so much fun.

Davi Guetta's really good, but bunching him with all the others is a sin.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Yeah. I know. But sometimes a person just can't help themselves. It just seems to pop out of one's mouth, and then it's a done job.

I'd say it's a sign of an intrinsically honest person who would just like to be thought well of. Lying when you know you'll be found out can't really be serious lying, can it?

Have you confronted him with it? If handled well, and tactfully (easier said than done, but with good humour, and obviously well-intentioned, should be possible), it could be a good thing.

Still, I get the impression you feel nothing but scorn. Or are you just mystified by it?

Oh there is no scorn to it, I'm just a bit put off is all. There is also no reason to confront him over it. I think the real reason it got under my skin is that this is the same friend who was nearly kicked out of school, keeps failing and also refuses to accept a drop of responsibility for it whilst also pretending he's the greatest.

don't like, don't like, eh, hate, who?, don't like, don't like, don't like, don't like, don't like, like.

Which was the one you liked?

I don't care for his music but the man is talent. His appearences on SNL are all classics.

It can sometimes be quite relaxing...sort of.



I hate myself.
Had a nice evening. And now I can only think negatively about it. Can parts of my mind not just vanish?

 

[Borachio]

No. And the more you try to make them vanish the less likely they are to. At least, that's what I find with mine. Yours may be different, naturally.

 

[NickyJ]

Which was the one you liked?

I least disliked Rihanna's "Stay".

 

[The_J]

No. And the more you try to make them vanish the less likely they are to. At least, that's what I find with mine. Yours may be different, naturally.

*sigh* I'm sure you're right .

 

[Borachio]

Have you tried not trying to make them vanish? Or writing the damn things down.

 

[The_J]

Ignoring? Yeah, tried that, doesn't work.
Writing down? Yeah, currently, in another forum, because nearly nothing of the related thoughts is suitable for here.
I already know the next step, but I'm not yet ready for it :/.

 

[Borachio]

No, I don't mean ignoring. I mean letting the thoughts come as they do without letting them bother you. Just watching them. I find they tend to be dreadfully repetitive (which is strangely what bothers me the most), so I'll sometimes count the number of times a particular thought crops up. Long before I get to twenty it's usually gone. I think, though mostly before then I've forgotten to keep counting so I don't really know.

(Dear me, rereading that, I look like a complete div! To myself. Or should that be, even to myself?)

What's the next step? Or shouldn't I ask?

You're strange . Would like to be able to do that ^^.

Getting help.
Yeah...maybe.
Probably falls into the "shouldn't ask" category, I presume.

I read this on wiki a year ago or so and found it helpful:

What I did, I just made myself accept that yeah, bad thoughts are normal, everyone has them, best thing is to minimize reactions and allow myself to let it sit for a sew seconds and then move on. Easier said than done, but hope this helps.

The Euros blow up when we civilized Aussies and Yanks call rugby league or American football "football".

So I've gone directly to egghand to mute their cries.

Bro, it's handegg, not egghand
