I went down a rabbit trail of every moment I've embarassed myself or acted below my standards in the past ten or so years. I've decided that the only recourse for the way I feel right now, is to blow my own nuts off with a rocket launcher while also jumping off the bay bridge, impaling myself on the mast of a passing boat for a sweet triple hit combo.

What type of food?

Who lost the game

Indian curry from one of those great, budget-friendly Hare Krishna restaurants.
I managed to finish it all, don't worry- although it's technically an "all you can eat" thing. Just imagine, some mad person could actually go back for more after devouring that big plateful of rice and veg curry (two different kinds). Boggles the mind, that does. Not to even mention the dessert, which was a bowl of some kind of crumbly pudding/soft cake and custard (presumably vegan?). The whole thing was good, if a bit too far on the mild side for my liking. They try to cater to everyone with the same meal, after all, even total wimps.

Oh well, it was very cheap and very good.

You sound like you had halava.

Also we aren't typically vegan.

[somemildmanneredidiot]

Dang it, why can I never decide on a setting?!

I got halfway through designing a detailed, thoroughly researched setting for a hypothetical play-by-post Pathfinder game based on Viking Age Scandinavia, when suddenly, I want to write a campaign about Golden Age pirates.

Why does this always happen? It feels like I'll get nine tenths of the way through a Shakespearean Renaissance-type setting when I want to set a campaign in the fictionalized High Middle Ages. I'll get most of the way through writing a plot for a modern-day espionage story when suddenly I want a Victorian story about detectives and top hats and moustache-twirling Gilded Age corporate presidents. I don't think that I've written out an entire setting that I'm satisfied with in like two or three years.

Okay but ¿Por que no los dos? Seriously, the two settings seem like they'd fit well together, and I know I'd enjoy that game.

I only have to work hard for a few days andthen I'm home free but aaaaaaaah.

My mind is totally elsewhere. And my meds run out on Thursday; that's the last day I actually need them, and I'll get a prescription that same day, but still, not ideal.

[Yoink]

Also we aren't typically vegan.

Yeah that was my first thought, but halava's a pretty broad category from what I'm reading so I don't know what it was specifically.

And yes, I know, it's just this restaurant that appears to advertise most or all of their food being vegan... I guess you have to ask whether the meal of the day is vegan or not. Not particularly relevant to me either way, I'm only vegetarian.



Edit: Here's something actually on-topic for the thread: It's almost Christmas. Fuck. Just hit me now.
In a bit over a week we'll hit peak merrymaking and jolliness levels, both unpleasant, vulgar things, and with my luck some jerk will probably buy me a gift or something to make me feel even worse about myself than I do already. The post-Christmas discounted eggnog will probably even sell out before I can get any again, just to rub salt in the wound.

My head hurts, I feel tired despite having an 11 hour sleep, and I'm still kicking myself over my terrible exam of two days ago.

...yay?

[TempAcc]

Excessive sleep can actualy cause headaches and make you feel tired, so, yea :U

That actually explains a good portion of my summer, thanks.

> decide to look on example dialogue engines to get hints/tricks on how to make own one not shit

> the "simple" dialogue engines have several times more code, then game you are trying to code will probably ever have and more often then not code in them is beyond your level of understanding

[Egan_BW]

Sounds like they're just needlessly complicated to me.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I really hate it when people come over to my families house. All it leads to is me getting mad at being kept up late because people feel the need to yell increasingly stupid things while their voices increase in volume as the night goes on. AND NOW I DON'T EVEN GET TO HAVE A SHOWER WHICH MEANS I WON'T SLEEP AT ALL TONIGHT BECAUSE I CAN'T SHAKE THE FEELING THAT I'M COVERED IN MY OWN FILTH AND SWEAT AND UGH... I've just finished shaking now because I'm obviously not good enough and I'm not important enough to even have a shower let alone be liked or useful in anyway and barely ate at all today. I don't even think I'll try to sleep tonight, I'm not good enough for it I think I might start shaking again soon, I started crying last time. Only a little though. Why is it that half the time I only feel safe here even though I think you're all mocking me behind my back?

[tonnot98]

I don't think we mock anyone behind their back, I think we'd do it in plain sight. 

So what's this about you not being able to shower? Do they yell at you for hogging the shitter or something? Could just toss them a roll of toilet paper and tell them to head outside. Also, I'm curious as to how they reply if you ask them to tone down the volume. Given the reads from everyone here, I have a feeling it might not be a rational answer, but a bit of planning could turn that to your favor.

[TheBiggerFish]

@Gamedragon:
That is horrible and the people who are doing that should feel bad.

And believe me, if anyone was mocking you, I'm pretty sure there would be a large crowd of us descending upon them like the wrath of <insert preferred deity here>.

[Shadowlord]

@Gamedragon:

Also

AND NOW I DON'T EVEN GET TO HAVE A SHOWER WHICH MEANS I WON'T SLEEP AT ALL TONIGHT BECAUSE I CAN'T SHAKE THE FEELING THAT I'M COVERED IN MY OWN FILTH AND SWEAT AND UGH...

*hugs anyways* (100% seriously)

How other people treat you says something about them. I guess they aren't really thinking about you, about how what they're doing affects you. Or more assertiveness is called for. I don't know, I'm not there with you seeing what you're seeing. But still, you have my well-wishes, and what virtual hugs I can send over the internets.

[Emma]

I'm fine now, I actually got to sleep last night but it wasn't comfortable. What happened last night was completely my fault for over-reacting like I always do.
