RANDOM RANTS XXXI: I hate my job

[Shekwan]

they don't test LSD?

Doesn't that only stay in the body for a couple of days?

But still, shouldn't they test for it, you don't want a guy on a plane thinking hes flying in WWII and jumping around...

LSD? It ain't the 1960s anymore. That said I reckon a guy who thinks he's a plane is exactly what most TEFL schools here are looking for. Glorified clowns. But thats another story.

As for LSDs detection time, I reckon its quite long. A common belief about LSD is that it remains in your system for an indefinite amount of time. It has even been reputed to cause flashbacks.

This could easily be an urban myth, I've heard it from a couple of different people, but I haven't really looked into whether its true or not.

Oh god I feel so alienated in my home municipality. ALL my friends live in other places in Stockholm. It feels awful because it's like I have no ties whatsoever with the place I've lived my whole life.

Makes it harder to see people when you have to drive to see them.

Why? Well, it makes me feel like a social recluse since all my childhood friends are close to each other. I'm just so different from them, I can't really relate. I'm looking forward to moving out and away. Though it does make me feel like I'd be running away from my past or something.

Apparently I still have the ability to break up large social crowds IRL simply by entering them.

Everyone hates me.

According to Erowid, you can't test for it after 72 hours. If you're experiencing flashbacks, it's due to psychological trauma, not physical residue.

I thought you lived in Stockholm. What then is the problem.

 

[Mathalamus]

Various reasons.

i see. well, try to calm down and resolve them in a mature manner.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

My bad knee just locked up rather painfully.

I love Stockholm It's not Stockholm that's the problem. It's the area in which I live in that is. I have plenty of friends in Stockholm, spread out in different boroughs and municipalities; I love em. But where I live, my childhood friends are all close to each other while I'm just acquaintances with them.

(It's not like it's anybody's fault though. I just never hang out with them, and when I do meet them the conversation NEVER goes anyway.)

What I'm looking forward to is moving out, to some other part of Stockholm. (Though it might not end up happening in a long time, if at all. There's a big chance that I might end up studying abroad, in say Medical School.)

From the member's photos thread:

Don't worry, as I said, my school has plenty of televisions sitting around with no purpose whatsoever.

I mean, we have a flat screen television in the pottery room, what possible purpose could that be used for?

My Rant:

My college's on-campus gym has an indoor track. I bring this up, because in 3 places around the track are 3 overhead flatscreen tv's mounted from the ceiling. And the only thing on the screen is a computer illustration of the track and an animated arrow going around counter-clockwise.

We have 3 big flat-screens telling runners to run a certain direction . . . why couldn't a sign on the wall or floor itself do that? lol

I found out what the slang term for my behavior is: Nerd Depression.

Aren't those meant to show tv-shows and stuff for people to watch while running?

Is 'nerd depression' just regular ol' depression that happens to be eperienced by a nerd?

Please clarify

Aren't those meant to show tv-shows and stuff for people to watch while running?

No. It's ALWAYS the image of a track with an arrow spinning around in c-clockwise. Plus they don't move. A runner wouldn't be able to hear or watch for very long . . . only a few seconds until they reach the next one. It's not like at a treadmill.
