Boredom is better than crazy religious folk, Akura.

After sweating your ass off in a warehouse for almost no pay, I'd think you'd consider getting paid for doing nothing a blessing.

I'm not even mad about the thumb. It's basically a little cut. That's probably when I should have stopped drinking, yeah, but I has just opened a beer so I couldn't just leave it.

*Little tear of pride* They grow up so fast... But in the future, it may be better to quit while you are ahead. I had alcohol poisoning once, and it was possibly the least fun experience I've ever had in my life. I vomited for two days, and then I dry-heaved for another day. :/ After the first day, death would have been the kindest mercy possible.

*Alcohol poisoning brofist*

I woke up naked and autographed in a strange house. later found out that I had spent much of the night sleeping in a tub full of warm water as several people I barely knew desperately tried to keep my body temperature up because I was essentially shutting down. Once I stabilized, they took payment by attempting to embarass me with things like writing snide comments about my genitalia on my genitalia. Ah, college.

I was only nineteen, and I worked at a bar. My boss decided to have a big bonfire at her house to burn all the furniture she didn't like. (She was a bit... Eclectic.) So, we get there, and I hadn't even planned on drinking, but one of the other cooks had a gallon of Canadian Hunter with him, and it was fucking freezing with snow on the ground. So I took a big swig of the whiskey, which isn't something I do normally. I'm a mixed drink kinda guy. Anyway, about ten minutes later, a female I had been involved with arrived, so I thought, "Uh oh, better drink some more, I don't want to be thinking about her." Good news, this was an excellent plan and it worked perfectly.

Bad news, I forgot to stop drinking. I drank the whole gallon. I'm 145 lbs. This was a bit too much alcohol. Then, I decided to have a few beers. Nine. Nine fucking beers. I remember the first beer, and waking up in my bed puking. Apparently while I was being driven home, I was shouting very loudly about '****ing me some sexy bitches!' I'm a very quiet person in general, so everyone involved thought it was hilarious when they heard about it.

For any of you young'ins out there, those are basically two testimonials as to why you don't drink :p

This. Being drunk is fun, to a point, and after that point, it goes downhill extremely rapidly from 'Just made an ass of myself' to 'oh shit I'm dying'.

After sweating your ass off in a warehouse for almost no pay, I'd think you'd consider getting paid for doing nothing a blessing.

Note: NOT being paid. I only get $30 from my parents(which is still far less than I should be getting from my benefits), and most of that goes to taking the bus.

[Aklyon]

So, what is this non-paid job for, again?

[nenjin]

Dude, you seriously need to get a job that pays, even if it's flipping burgers or being a garbage man. You're spending mental and physical energy on something that you're not getting shit from. It's seemed like a trend for you in this thread that people use you, and while your circumstances in some ways make that unavoidable....you need to quit giving it away. A job, any freaking job, that pays is better than a job that does not. You're not getting anywhere doing this, you're not making any ground and you're not gaining anything you can call your own.

Don't mean to lecture you, but man, you need to get paid for what you do, plain and simple.

Came out to take a little siesta in my car over lunch break, found this:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm the car on the right/top. I have about three inches of space to get into the car. Or I can turn the other cheek and climb in through the passenger side. Or I can just say "You have a shiny new SUV. I have a 13-year old car with 150K miles and which has technically already been totalled. Guess which of us has more to lose, motherfucker?"

[SirAaronIII]

Nice shoes.

Hell, I'm 23 and don't drink. Partly because I haven't yet found a taste I enjoyed, but mostly because I'm afraid of ending up a mess with twisted ankles and glass in my guts.

[PyroDesu]

Akura, didn't you say at some point that your benefits come through a card, which your parents have control of right now?

If so, try and see about getting the card they have frozen and reissued to you directly, to keep it out of their hands.

Haha, I'm not a good example at all, am I?

Well, you're not the only example. My dad was an alcoholic for a while, though he recovered and hasn't drank since. I don't really want to end up the same way, or worse, and the fact that I have two parents with addictive tendencies means I have to be extra careful.
