We're going to have to put down petri kitty. Infected wound in his neck/jaw, hasn't healed, vet says there's nothing we can do.

My condolences...

In an argument, recently had the "you can't ever be wrong, can you?"
It's a peeve. I'm happy to be wrong when I'm actually wrong. But they wanted me to give up on it simply so they could be right for once. Wasn't even a politics or environmental thing, either. It was solid, proveable stuff, like the color of someone's eyes or who said what in a movie.

Then they get peevy when I rewind to make sure, as though the argument is worthwhile enough to interrupt the movie for, but not important enough to verify.

Gets my goat. Really isn't hard to say "my bad, thanks". It's my go-to phrase, not to mention basic politeness. *various annoyed mutterings*

That sounds pretty infuriating

I had a similar situation earlier this year, which was resolved by basically just walking away from the situation. I've learned that even if you act in good will to everyone else, there will always be people who won't reciprocate that, and there's not really anything you can do to change that. It sucks, big time, though.

Yeah. Turns out one of them might not be involved. The other almost definitedly.

There's only one thing to say to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WN6lpSkBmWE

Meh. I want to talk about crush things again but there's really nothing to say that I haven't said already :x
I still feel bad about this.

I dozed off yesterday afternoon and woke up at 9pm, so now my sleep schedule is fucked. AGAIN. This is incredibly frustrating. I wish I could just sleep at night and then be awake in the morning. Is that too much to ask?

[Orange Wizard]

From experience, yes. Yes it is.

I barely slept last night and I got up at 8 AM this morning. It was a long and somewhat productive day, so I kinda collapsed and happily fell asleep at 10 PM, hopeful that I'll finally get a good nights sleep. It is now 2 AM and I'm fully awake :V

Finally got around to actually installing the Steam client.

Thing needs to do a hell of a lot of updating but the figure was in KB, not MB as I'm familiar with approximating in the context of datacaps, so I Google'd it for a quick translation.

>246 MB

Yeaaaahnope. Looks like that'll have to wait until the mornings when I get free Internet for all intents and purposes. :v

[Orange Wizard]

Jeez, do you have dialup or something?

All the cool people are using psychic cats nowadays.

I'm beginning to understand why depression seems to skyrocket around this time of year. Almost, if not all, of the messages both subliminal and explicit bandied about in Christmas advertising, songs, and theme seem to be pinpointed towards my emotional vulnerable points. It doesn't help that I'm exposed to all three in excessive quantities at my job, which is also growing more stressful as the days go by, both due to this fucking emotional attraction that I not only didn't ask for but explicitly hoped wouldn't happen and the influx of customers buying shit as Christmas approaches.

Another thing about this is that I'm really good at my job - not a big accomplishment, I go multi-hour stretches without actually thinking - and the management in my department, who all like me quite a bit due to my work ethic, are starting efforts to cajole/pressure me into increasing my hours so I'm there more - currently I work almost but not quite full time and they want me to up that so they can promote me. I don't have the heart to tell them that I'm miserable at this job and am beginning to despise it with all of my internal organs. I mean, usually I'm an easygoing person and I haven't gotten angry in years but that place brings me as close as I've been for a while. I look at the customers I serve with actual disdain and resentment now. Why? I don't know them, they could be okay people. But because they bring me work I feel disgruntled towards them for no good reason. I dislike the person it's molding me into.
Can't wait to get out of here or dramatically reduce my hours and go to school - which will bring me around as much angst about my fucking love interest that I didn't even voluntarily choose because she goes to the institution I've applied to, which in hindsight was a factor in my decision making.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck this bullshit teenage angst I thought after 3 fucking years of the stuff I'd be over it but noooo it just has to gradually transition into adult angst

[Tawa]

Jeez, do you have dialup or something?

Satellite internet, which forces a datacap on us. Same reason I haven't played multiplayer games over the internet in months.

Ewwww. No-one should have to live with data caps (or at least horribly small ones). That's too cruel.
