Just set a time. I do have a regular movie night to go to in 4 hours or so, but I'll have all day tomorrow to stream it for you too.

 I just showed Toony Dropbox. If anybody else is interested Feel Free to Join Up from that link alone.

 It's basically 2 GB of online space you can use to share stuff, and the system is very fluid within your computer.

I read Guts by Chuck Palahniuk.  I didn't faint, but I was trying to avert my eyes for most of the final scene, to the point where I actually missed how he got away.

The only way I can describe it is... distressing.

How did you manage to read with your eyes averted from what you were reading?

You can do crazy things when you're reading about someone getting disemboweled by a pool intake.

... Well, that's an interesting way to go.

No, hard math problem >_>

To add insult to injury, I thought I solved it last year--so I looked at my solution from then, and it was kind of pitifully wrong.  Now I have a good idea of why what I should be doing works, but I don't know the proof yet.  With luck, I'll have the right solution by tomorrow.

Something tells me it's much easier than I'm making it out to be, though...

I just learned that a good friend of mine, who was watching my pets while I was traveling last year, saw fit to invite his girlfriend over to my apartment while I was out. They proceeded to bump uglies in my bed, and afterward he sat back while his girlfriend read through my personal journal. Upon letting me know this, he insulted me, based on what I'd written... typical "LOL ur a fag" crap. It was a joke, granted, and he allegedly tried to talk her out of it (...yeah, I'm sure), but it was a huge violation of trust.

He's one of the few people I regularly hang out with, and thought I could generally count on to be reliable, forthright, and trust-worthy. I'm not quite sure how to feel about this.

Well, I would personally stab him to death.

More mature answers later when I'm feeling less enraged on your behalf.

He told me this an hour or so after Broody and I invited him to come along to our D&D group's Movie Night... which means it's time to put one one of those masks of pleasantry while I hang with them all, and he and I sort things out later. I... still don't know how I feel. Mostly surprised, and disappointed.

Dissociation Ho!

I... guess he feels guilty for it?  If not (and he was just using it as an amusing anecdote or something) I'd probably just break it off.

Just... wow.
Calling this an awkward situation would be a bit of an understatement.

I'd probably never talk to that guy again.

This is exactly how I feel.

I don't even know what to say.

Don't act fake for him. Either bitch him out in front of everyone and denounce him, or demand recompense (be that an apology or somthing else). What he did is by no means allright, and you should not let him think so.
