Whelp! My worst nightmare at work happened.

One of the patients spat on my face. Got me right on the nose and mouth.

Why is this so bad? The patients are all nasty people with hep c, hiv, and other foulness. One of my friend's at the hospital also had one of the patients spit on their face and got herpes from it. On his eye. Hes now eventually going to go blind in that eye. So knowing this, being spat on has always been my biggest fear while working there...

The only plus side is that I got sent home early and will be paid for full shift but... auuugh. I'd rather be physically assaulted than spat on by the patients. I have to get blood work done in the morning ;[ FML

Now if you'll excuse me I'll be scrubbing the epidermal layer of my face off

Oh man, I'm so sorry this happened to you =(

When I worked with patients I also would rather be attacked than be given body fluids (most had dementia so being attacked in some way was common for us). If they knew that every time they went for my throat or something I was just thankful it was a "dry" attack they'd probably have spat on me instead =P

I'm convinced I've caught CJD from being exposed to of the patient's blood though. I just have to try and convince myself I'm being stupid and hope for the best.

I've been terrible at doing homework since the dawn of time (I was the kid who had to stay after school while teachers talked to parents about my 1,000,000 missing homework assignments).

I figured my 6 year break from school and motivation to take college classes would have pushed that awful flaw out of my system. But nope. I'm wide awake at nearly 1am and still procrastinating on assignments that are due in the morning.

I'd say I hate that weakness in myself...
But I think I just hate homework. lol

Pro tip for students: Stay after school for a while and make yourself so bored that homework is fun.

Thats what I did

If anyone Procrastinates after that then yeah, you probably just hate homework.

I know that feeling. I always did projects we had weeks to complete, on the very last night.

Having any kind of art discussion with the SO.

Which basically boils down to

ITSMYSTYLE.jpg

He literally thinks he doesn't need to understand basics and anatomy because he draws aliens.
I can't deal with this shit.

you certainly don't need to adhere to strict rules of anatomy to have an enjoyable style; however if you're gonna attempt that, you'd better be real good.

I'm sorry for trying to crank such an awful joke.

I'm sure there is a middle ground somewhere between a proper anatomy and imaginative (or in my case, horrible) anatomy

You don't need to be strict, and hell, purposeful exaggeration usually lends itself well to art.

He just refuses to learn,
at all,
period.

And that drives me insane.

Another reason to road rage. On a two lane rural road, the guy who came flying up behind me. Ended up doing about 60, which, if the speed limit in that area was 45 or 50, was then 10+ over the speed limit. He still virtually rammed right into my back trunk space like he wanted to fuck my tail pipe or something. Finally, "Bumper kissing asshole" flew past me at 70+ mph. I literally gave him the finger as he passed by, no way he would have missed it.

I need to carry a gun in my car because one of these days someone's going to violently road rage at me for some retarded reason and I need to protect myself and at least have a justifiable reason for shooting someone.

Fahrenheit isn't arbitrary.

Fahrenheit isn't arbitrary.

According to the poster it is 'arbitary'.

Anyway, all temperature scales are arbitrary. The question is 'is this an intuitive scale?' and since it's based on the freezing point of fucking brine, the answer is 'not really'.

It makes more sense when you realize that it is brine in equal proportions of salt and ice and that when mixed they automatically reach a temperature equilibrium that is reliably consistent. This made for a super easy and convenient way to calibrate old thermometers and reduce variabilty between measurements. It may not make much sense today (or for regular, every day uses) but it did at the time.

Plus, I personally like the wider scale that can display precision without invoking decimals.

I'm all for Kelvin. :V

Having to wait for a mod to approve my posts.

Yeeah, there's this guy who has been plauging our little group for like what, five years? And he's made something like 20 different alts to try and circumvent it. Fortunately, or Unfortunately, he's so fuckin crazy that it comes out within the first two posts. There's also ANOTHER unstable individual, but because he's slightly more rational, he can still harass the one user he wants to whenever he makes another alt. Its really frustrating for the mods, but this is the best deterrent we have so far.

Is there no way to prove my authenticity? ): I got like an FA profile from ages ago I can post "hello pheonix" from or something... it just sucks because I can end up waiting hours before my comments get approved.

We have it automatically end after a week, but I mean in your case I don't see why we can't lift yours, esp because you're so active @ArielMT?

When people say they weigh some number of kilograms when they actually weigh a little under 10 times that many Newtons. I particularly hate that I've seen a civil engineer say something weighs a number of slugs.

Speaking of, I hate the slug. There is no better reason to leave USC than the slug, unless one counts any variations of the slug used when units other than feet are used.

Yeah, it's a situation with no real easy solution.  Also, it took a bit longer than I wanted, but done.

...Nobody quotes their weight in newtons, so you're going to be irritated a lot if you invest emotional upset in this.

I'm aware.

Doesn't keep me from thinking somebody giving their weight in kg is just as ridiculous as somebody giving their weight in sg, though.

It's only really a problem if you're giving your weight while you're not on Earth.

If we were a space faring civilisation we would probably just say 'my mass is x kg' because weight would vary.

...Or maybe we would still say 'I weigh x kg' as a linguistic fossil dating back to Earth-time.

I tried the Lindt 85% Cacao Dark Chocolate bar today and ugh that stuff is way too strong for me. I could tolerate it if it were a bit sweeter, but it sort of reminded me of Tim Horton's black coffee which I also hate. Plus the taste lasted for a while, which seems to be due to it's inability to dilute very well... I tried washing a piece down the sink and it was almost indestructible, even under hot water. I'm wondering if the 70% one is any better and how bad the 90% one is. Also $4 CAD for one bar, god dang!

The idiot who wrote this book used imperial units instead of the metric system.

I was enjoying the book until I had to get up and walk over to my computer so I could Google how to convert yards into inches, feet, and other shit.


You commies and your metric system. Embrace the imperialism and our measurement system. Or be a commie socialist terrorist.

 Rassah has power? LMFAO!

😢

On the OP topic, I hate how furry chat groups always have so little to say or just talk about useless vapid things. "I like pizza!" or "Bowling weekend coming up I'm so excited!" or "I have work tomorrow, here's how late I can stay up" and not much else. It's just small talk, and any interesting topics either completely go over their heads or someone in the group inevitably gets completely offended about and some cringey white knights always jump in to defend them. I just feel I have nothing in common with the lot of them, and most of them are just completely uninteresting.

I have this problem.

I just have a problem making good, actual conversation with people sometimes. (And don't worry Rassah, at least I won't hate you :v)

Glenn Beck. Don't know why I suddenly thought of that but wow do I not miss this guy. So glad that the rest of the world all but forgot that waste of nutritious fats and juices.

God, I almost forgot about him. And talk about bat-shit insane. One of the crazier ones of his kind, to be sure. At least he's been pushed to margins.

That the entire floor of the office building reeks of sweat like a gym. The company summer sports championship is going on right now, so many people spend their lunch (and then some) playing things like Volleyball and Frisbee.

On the bright side, it will all soon culminate in the big Company Picnic! (Held in the unused warehouse portion of the building, naturally.)

Those horrible, preppy looking pastel clothes made by this company called Vineyard Vines. It makes me almost as nauseous as Abercrombie and Fitch, which is hard to do. In fact, having the logos of a manufacturer on any piece of apparel strikes me as tacky. One's own initials or such, I might see, but those of a supplier?

My weight loss has slowed to a halt and I don't know why, or if it will resolve itself, or whether I just need to chug some laxatives and weigh myself again tomorrow. I shouldn't really be complaining though since I've lost like 3kg and it really shows. I just really hate the feeling that I have no control over my weight and that I'll be chubby no matter what I do. I'm doing everything right this time.

This one is going to sound really stupid but it's driving me nuts. A YouTuber I follow posted some snapchats yesterday and she was wearing the most AMAZING corset-top-thing and I just have to know where it's from so I can get one. But none of my queries are bringing anything up on eBay, Google or the big Chinese website I tried (I can't really search ALL of them though). Usually I can track down ANY item of clothing from a photo but this one is really elusive and I just want it so badly.
