Bloodshot_Eyes Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I'm sorry but I cannot take the word triggered seriously anymoreBut man that sucksYeah, I'm taking it back. It's a perfectly legitimate term describing the activation of pre-existing thought forms via a stimulus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaosCalix Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I'm sorry but I cannot take the word triggered seriously anymoreBut man that sucksSpeaking of... I hate how "triggered" and "trigger" cannot be taken seriously. It's frustrating that to explain something that I could easily say "__ is my trigger", I have to skirt around that and explain how "___ gives me a huge anxiety attack" and so on. Thanks internet, you fucked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks internet, you fucked it.One of my roommates has a panic disorder and I understand the sentiment. He will go into elaborate detail to avoid using the word just because anyone with an internet connection immediately associates "triggered" with 17 year old girls who self-diagnose with PTSD after getting called fat on twitter.It's one of those situations where well-intentioned idiots who claim to advocate for those afflicted with mental illness end up further entrenching normies in their beliefs that it's all made up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 My dad's trying to get in contact with me and I'm triggered to hell. We've never really talked, he ran away before I was born. I want to tell him to fuck off, but at the same time he actually initiated contact. I'm scared I'm gonna be rejected again. I don't even know who he is except for I share a bunch of my genetics with him. I wanna try for my own conscious, but damn... what the fuck... my mind is a clusterfuck of self loathing right now.Something I know all to well, but worse.Lol, might explain my current outlook on life. =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onnes Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) One of my roommates has a panic disorder and I understand the sentiment. He will go into elaborate detail to avoid using the word just because anyone with an internet connection immediately associates "triggered" with 17 year old girls who self-diagnose with PTSD after getting called fat on twitter.It's one of those situations where well-intentioned idiots who claim to advocate for those afflicted with mental illness end up further entrenching normies in their beliefs that it's all made up.Unfortunately, the emphasis that the term "trigger" gives someone's feelings incentivizes misuse. The only way around that is maintaining a very low tolerance for people falsely claiming a significant mental illness -- which isn't an easy thing to do given the how mental illness works in the first place. I wrote the term off a long time ago and try not to use it despite having panic disorder. Edited October 8, 2015 by Onnes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylar Husky Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Welp, the disposal unit in our sink is busted.Okay.We can't even use that in the house in which I am living. The disposer seals crapped out and then it started leaking really badly, especially every time the Dishwasher or Disposer was turned on. The house is near 50 years old and all the plumbing, wiring, lumber, drywall and everything which comprises the house has had many different standards, changes and laws affect how things work today compared to fifty years ago.I am looking at having to replace it entirely or possibly even the whole damn sink and drainpipe leading to the wall to fix the food disposer side of the sink in my kitchen. For now, I have been unable to use it for about 2 years and I have jury-rigged a baffle in the secondary pipe leading from the drain in the dishwasher to the food disposer in order to prevent water from pouring out on the floor under the sink and cabinets. We have to use the strainer side and scrape the extra food bits from plates into a container and either throw it out or flush it down the toilet. Finding the proper seals for the sink is a tall order. Finding hardware to repair most anything in the house is a tall order. In the United States the two largest hardware stores to find that are Home Depot and Lowe's. Neither carries all the components necessary for most of the repair projects which I have embarked. It really disgusts me to have to make two stops because I can't get a doom-a-flawchie, a doo-hickey, widget, or a whatsit all in the same place. Often times I have to go to one, then the other, then to Ace hardware. Ace Hardware is actually pretty good sometimes. Sometimes they could improve things. The best part about Ace is their service. The people in there can tell you precisely how to repair your problem. They even give you advice and tell you what may go wrong in addition to prepare you for it. Sometimes Ace gets it done. Sometimes it doesn't.When Ace doesn't, I often have to go to a "niche" hardware store. Basically that is a hardware store that has stood and survived the test of time, the big box stores and has been in a family for 50-100 years and has tradition. They normally have any weird or esoteric parts, or they will be happy to get them for you. For the most part, I am okay with paying more for the part because the service is excellent. In Houston, Behring's Hardware is just such a store.But because it might be expensive to repair, I have to wait until money is better. I am forced to just hang in there a while longer. I can't replace the sink or the pipes yet. Edited October 8, 2015 by Skylar Husky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misomie Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 There is this cat at work. I first though it was just coming around for treats and lived in the neighborhood. Tonight it let me pet it and it was soooooooooo skinny. There is no way that cat has a home. Bones everywhere. Going to try and bring it home with me next week and see if it's a fit. If not, I'm going to try and find it a new home or bring it to a no-kill shelter. Poor kitty. I gave it a handful of chicken tonight (coworker gave it tuna the other night) but I still feel bad for it. My boss said it was ok to keep feeding it in the meantime though.
