I cook bacon near-naked, no apron, on the stovetop, no lid. I'm fairly sure the grease feels somewhat similar.

Nah, I've done the same and it's a completely different, hot grease spittle just shocks your senses, but that slag will just keeping burning, melting into your skin until it eventually cools down.

I ordered a book from Amazon for my band class. Essential techniques alto saxophone book 3. The package was supposed to be at my house on Monday and it wasn't. My band teacher got mad it wasn't there on time. The package comes on Tuesday and I open it. It was the wrong fucking book. I then proceeded to flip my shit and show the band teacher all proof it was fucked up. A Giant mess followed and now I'm behind in the class. Amazon prime 0/10 would not recommend.

It's only when trying on old jeans that I realise just how fat I've gotten.

I had to give away a pair that I used to wear all the time when I was 18, there was a good 2 inches between the button and the loop. I can't believe I was ever that small. I don't feel like I have any more actual fat on my legs than I had back then, I feel like I'm just expanding like the universe. I'll be a giant some day at this rate with massive tree trunk legs. I feel like my size is completely out of my control.

Was it Amazon itself or a third party seller? You'd be surprised on how many listings on amazon, even though you click on the actual "one click" or "add to cart" button on the right of the listing, thinking you're ordering from Amazon but it's actually a third party. Usually it will say "Sold by and ships from" on the listing under the price.

I hate how it seems like any time I say something in an argument, someone will swoop in and say "SIDEWALK YOU STUPID CUNT YOU DID X THING 8 MONTHS AGO SO YOU SAYING THIS IS IRONIC!!!!!"

Like, have people ever considered that maybe I think differently when I'm not flipping a bitch and my mind is clear? Or possibly that I learn from past experience?

I'm aware of that, and I know I still have things to learn and get better at, but it'd be nice if people weren't such dicks about it.

[DrDingo]

The summer break always serves to make me feel worn out, lonely and bored of daily life. I get susceptible to worry because nothing else exists to fill my time.

University is coming and I'm excited, but at the same time frightened

I feel nearly ill from thinking. I feel like I could be out of my depth both academically and socially. What if everyone else is more prepared? Eugh. I don't want to fail before I've started.

[Socketosis]

I hate that I know I am capable of accomplishing some interesting things, but I'm too much of an idiot that gets easily distracted by forums, chats, news, porn and stupid videos. I've been considering disabling my connection or blocking certain sites and services in my hosts file, but I'm pretty sure I'll just reverse it after a few minutes of boredom.

I also hate being constantly paranoid that my computer is silently infected with a trojan from some very sneaky developer or hacker that put it in legit software that I have installed. VirusTotal only helps comfort me a little bit. The thought of reformatting occurs to me on a daily basis, but it's too much of a hassle and I'm probably going to end up installing the same stuff anyway because I need it. The other day, Google made me enter a CAPTCHA to make sure I wasn't a bot because it detected unusual activity coming from my IP, which was very weird to say the least. Maybe I should just start doing most things in a virtual machine...

People are often "dicks" about progress because they're skeptic to it. The only way you're gonna change that perception is through, as Endless said, time and consistency.
But getting angry about their warranted skepticism is basically throwing a tantrum because you want something you haven't properly earned. It's your word versus your actions, and people will almost always side with action, because it's far more reliable.

My lack of nightmares.

It's been so long since I've had a good nightmare. I miss the prickling hot fear that burns through you and the thrill that comes with it. It made me feel alive.

I'm expecting your next post will be 'I hate nightmares, I just had one and it was horrible!' ;3

I had one a couple of days ago. I hurt my knee a while ago and my subconscious made sense of it by contriving a dream that my leg had become gangrenous.

HEY HAVE SOME OF MINE.

Pick any I've got plenty!

Existential nightmares, guilt nightmares, cheesy horror nightmares, nightmares where something is off and you've a creeping sense of unease that something terrible is going to happen, surreal nightmares, and many, many more!

Buy one for the low low price of nothing and get all the rest free!

I hate nightmares, because mine usually involve either burning to death, being abducted by someone and god knows what happening after that, or something horrible happening to the people I care about.

I can understand that, honestly. And I'm not "throwing a tantrum", as you put it. I'm just wondering if it's really necessary to yell at me in all caps any time I say anything ever like some people have done on here.

You have to mind the audience you surround yourself with. OldFAF, and by extension Phoenixed, aren't exactly the most soft-handed in terms of word use or attitude.
If it bothers you, it might be to your benefit to limit what you say and where.

And I use "tantrum" as a general descriptor regarding anger in reaction to a justified (on the opposition's point) situation, be that mental, verbal, or physical. Furthermore, I've seen you get really hostile when people criticize you, which yes, would fully qualify as far as I'm concerned.
Tantrums aren't just throwing toys and stamping your feet, especially as you get older. But they do still exist.


OT: Bought a waterproof phone case for $20.
It isn't waterproof.



Which means it's defective, and I paid 2-day rush shipping for nothing, since I wanted this before camping next weekend.

Gonna return it, but I'm still disappointed.
Gonna try to get another one after I'm refunded by Amazon. And if that one ends up being a shitnugget too, I'm just gonna keep my money.

Why the fuck would you ever want one? I've had like 2 in my entire life and the only one I can remember was literally one of the worst things I've ever endured. Like straight-up waking up and fucking scream-crying.

I'll admit I do have an issue with being criticized and I get pretty hostile. I was verbally bullied pretty harshly for years so it's kind of a defense mechanism. Not a good one though. Also, did you dip your phone in the water with the case on or did you just dip the case?

I was bullied extensively in school too. It's just one of those things you have to observe and counteract and all that.

I just dipped the case. It comes with a "phone blank" (the blue thing in the pic) so you can test them for deficiencies before you accidentally fuck yourself out of an electronic device.
And I tested mine like 4 - 5 times.
It leaked every time. So I'm returning it.

To be fair, I heard complaints in the reviews about this before I did it. That some people had a defective case that wouldn't seal properly.

So yeah.
There was no way in hell I was gonna toss my phone into the tub without testing that shit first. Lol.

Nobody on?  OK. So I dehydrated myself with tea. I assume. 

For the past few days that's all I've had, although I've had a couple of quarts a day of the stuff. Now today I've been dizzy and passed out a couple times, and my blood pressure measured at 100/50 (low for me).

 

So yeah, I make good decisions.

The same thing happens to people who can't go on without several cups of coffee per day, assuming you got dehydrated due to amount of caffeine you have consumed. Caffeine can have a diuretic effect, leading to dehydration but can also conversely cause high blood pressure. If you've been peeing a lot, you might indeed be dehydrated. 

Drink plain water. That's my recommendation. Keeps you full and has no additives, calories or extra energy you need to be concerned about. Just liquid to keep your body properly clean from the inside

Also, have you been drinking actual hot water tea or those fake, overly sugary American cold teas?

I would have said the same thing like, 2 weeks ago. Since then I had ANOTHER dream that my cat died, so fuck that.

On the topic of my cat, I hate that when I go into pet stores to look for a new collar for her, there is nothing fit for a princess like her! None of the collars feel like I would be spoiling her enough. I already got her the prettiest one in the store and it still doesn't feel pretty enough.

My roommates are uni were fine. They left me be and that.

My roommate at home... Well...

• He gets pissy when asked to do household chores or when dad uses some money sent to him to buy groceries. (by the by, he doesn't pay rent because he's a stray child :^) )
• He gets salty when people don't want to share THEIR FOOD with him. And he always takes food without asking about it prior anyway.
• He barely takes care of the cats he has. He never cleans their litter tray, feeds them, or waters them. And he had the gall to see if we could take care of a dog too.
• He likes to blast loud E D G E music at late points at time when I want to sleep.
• He doesn't do his own dishes.
• He complains about the house ALL the time. Like bitch... we're letting you live here, basically free of charge.
• He literally pisses everyone off with his attitude, and my mom straight-up wants him out of the house.
