I didn't do that. If I made a mistake, tell me instead of assuming I'm an asshole.

Had a moment of weird pain as my plane made its descent yesterday. It was like someone pricking me with needles all along the ridge of my eyebrow. I've had pressure headaches from flights before, but nothing like this.

After it passed it felt like the ridge above my eyebrow was swollen even though it wasn't. That part of my head/face continued to feel weird/kinda numb all day afterward. Interesting what preceded it was a sudden, completely uncontrollable set of sneezes like I inhaled something. Couple minutes later they start the descent, and I feel like I'm having a stroke.

Today I wake up and I've got a nice, throbbing sinus headache that radiates from that exact spot. Reading up on it apparently it's called Barosinutitus, where your sinuses fail to equalize the pressure as it changes and part of your sinuses effectively trap the pressure within, causing distracting, ongoing headaches. There's medicine to get your sinuses to open up (i've already tried everything I know, from nasal decongestants to breathing in steam for a few minutes. Sudafed is barely even making a dent in it.) Failing the medicine, they'll basically need to go in and force the sinus passage open.

I'm sure that privilege will cost me several hundred dollars if the drugs don't work (can't see a doctor until Monday.) At this point though, I don't care. I can't focus on anything much, I'm constantly distracted from this pressure in my head and sleeping just seems to make it worse/more noticeable. I'm going a little crazy here as nothing is even giving me the illusion of relief. It's not bad enough to completely debilitate me, but it's just enough to leave me feeling like doing exactly nothing except try and distract myself from it. I'm not playing games for fun right now, more because it's the only thing taking my mind off it.

Oh wow, I can imagine. I flew next to a guy with a bad head cold a couple years back and he described landing as 'the worst experience of his life'. Good luck, and I hope you don't have to pay through the nose for your doctor, as it were.

I think if there is probably one thing I love it is performing hypnosis on people.

I had to put it on pause because I never perform sessions while I am in a bad mood (it hurts the session) but I am finally back to it!

Someone's cell phone rang during a session and they started swearing. I laughed.

You're a pretty strange dude, Neo.

[Neonivek]

You're a pretty strange dude, Neo.

I am saddened by the fact that my prime motivator beyond anything else is just for people to be happy with me.

Hypnosis likely fulfills that because, well, people tend to be quite grateful to anyone who can spend 30 minutes to an hour making their stress go away, or feel like they are floating, or hallucinate an out of body experience.

I am just ashamed that deep down I am probably shameless in how much I crave positive attention and how little I often care about my own feelings if they are pitted against someone elses. I cheer up with glowing praise, if I am not crushed by the stress of keeping it up, and am crushed by even the slightest hint of displeasing someone.

I shouldn't make posts after an all nighter. I have a feeling these are the sort of things I am not supposed to reveal to a forum... but I can't seem to find anything inherently wrong with what I am saying.

The desire for acceptance is a trait innate to most (though not all) humans. It's nothing all that strange.

I just spent the entire day trying to make my mods work in skyrim. Send help.

I spent several actally.  Are you using mod orginizer? If not just start over and use that. Keeps a virtual data directory and keels your install clean.

Scrubs. Spent 3 weeks trying to make mods work together in Skyrim.
Still don't work.

[Gunner-Chan]

I don't think you can really call anyone scrubs if yours didn't work after a month. Mashing mods together isn't even really that hard anymore with the post morrowind games anyway.

mashing Bethesda mods together is literally hitler

German cases are on acid. And people complain that English doesn't make sense.

[miauw62]

I actually liked Latin cases (and the tenses), but German just confuses me.
Dutch spelling may be ass, but at least our grammar isn't very hard.

[scrdest]

Yeah, same impression, German casing seems entirely arbitrary to me.

[Helgoland]

Cases, as in verbs? I could understand gender confusion, but the German cases are fairly straightforward I think.

[miauw62]

I think he means the nominative, accusative, etc
