Here's a source. It's hard to find a legit one. I trust NORML, though. They actually have citations of all the relevant studies so you can go find those if you have the means.

Just got an email from my school, stating that they need w2 information from my spouse and I. I turned this in in May. And then twice in June. This is the 6th round of paperwork that they've fucked up somehow.

I'm probably not going to school this semester. ;_;

[Aklyon]

Point out how many times you've given them that. With dates. Shame them into finding their fuckups in the system!

[MaximumZero]

Already tried that. They just don't care.

[Aklyon]

Point it out anyway. And then point it out again next month when they've lost it yet again.

[MaximumZero]

It'd probably be just as effective to KTFO someone. I'm going to give them one more chance, then I'm transferring to another school.

[RedKing]

Which school? You can find out what accreditation board handles them, then casually mention that you'll be contacting them if these "irregularities" continue.

[MaximumZero]

Kellogg Community. I have to transfer to Western Michigan to get my degree anyway, so it's just accelerating my timeframe, but I'm sick of the shenanigans.

Google+ is absurdly laggy. Another reason to never go on it.

Watched a stock double in the last 2 days.

Simulated it, and in the same time I decided to buy a related one instead of that one.

I'm 5% down for the day and the other stock could've payed for my damn rent had I bought it and sold it by now. I wish I was psychic.

[Aseaheru]

if i was then i wish i had told you. IF YOU PAYED THAT IS.

Generic traveler's rant incoming.

This. Business. Trip. Good lord. I'm used to how our business partners operate: on the cheap. I accept that as a legitimate cost of doing business with them.

But fuck me, if it hasn't been royally inconvenient. First, instead of a direct flight which would have taken ~40 minutes, they book a connecting flight that goes an hour out of the way to Minneapolis, then BACK to Midway in Chicago. Turning an hour long flight into a 4 hour travel time, at least.

Fine. Whatever. Been there, done that.

Then I'm up at the crack of dawn for the last three days. Yesterday was an almost 16 hour Hell of heat, non-stop auctioneer jabber polluting my thought pathways and the stress of about 100 people average watching my every key stroke.

Fine, whatever. I've been through worse.

At this point, I've slept between 5 and 6 hours a night for the last 3 days. I've had a shower maybe once. I got up at the crack of dawn again to make a flight that I had to sit around for 4 hours to board.

And then the rain came.

Delayed my flight an hour, and my connecting flight, thanks to our partner's budget-conscious travel arrangements, was missed by a window of about 10 minutes. Thanks Delta.

So now I'm sitting in Minneapolis-St. Paul for 6 hours so I can get home around midnight. That makes this about a 17 hour day or better.

And the best part? I have to walk for 10 minutes through a security check point to have a smoke. I'm furious, filthy, exhausted and desperate to get home. What do you THINK I'm gonna want to do for the next 6 hours to cope?

In summation: Fuck the weather, Fuck Delta, Fuck Modern Airport Security Procedure and half a dozen other things. All I wanna do is take my shoes off and relax at home with the comforts I haven't enjoyed at all this week, to soften all the BS I do for my job in the name of money and making a good impression.

And instead I'm trapped in this hellish purgatory of lost souls and overpriced shit sold at soulless, ravenous kiosks. I fucking HATE airports.

[Bdthemag]

Delta is literally THE WORST airline, I'm not even kidding. I've flew with Delta around five or six times, every time was terrible with the flight being delayed and general shitty conditions.

[Criptfeind]

So now I'm sitting in Minneapolis-St. Paul

Welcome. It could be winter at least.

[Jervill]

He's in the airport.  Purgatory is an apt term to describe it; airports are places without any meaningful difference no matter where they are located, he cannot enjoy Our Glorious State from being trapped in that place.
