Please excuse me while I whine for a minute. 

Damn, my life really sucks atm... It feels like all the color has drained out of everything. I rarely enjoy anything, I'm constantly racked with anxiety, I loathe my job.... I'm caught in a repeating cycle of pointlessness. I feel like I'm stranded on an island of my own making; I have very few people in my reclusive little life but yet no desire to pursue relationships. I've been eating less. Me and my mom seem to be drifting apart and I don't know why. I never feel like I'm doing what I want to. I've become increasingly self-abusive. Yay 4 me. But I'll get by. I always do.

Hey I know that quite well! Unemployed, life is dull with bad company stuck around me, doesn't really help with my illnesses coming at me strong. But you know what? It can't stay like this forever. I have no idea what my future will be like but hey, it could be something new and worth experiencing (ideally living in Ireland). Can't give up just yet, you can pull through even if you don't know what to look forward to. Try to check your mind busy on the future while spicing things up in the present. I'm not the best at talking, heck my English isn't that great actually, but I hope I've uh... Comforted you a bit haha.

I think you'll do well, I believe in you. Don't hurt yourself, you're all you've got right now.

Anyone know what the two knots at the base of your skull's backside called? (Not lymph nodes)

I.... er...... what?

I found this, dunno if it helps

I thought maybe you might have been asking about the mastoid processes, there was also this one

Where there's also things that match that description called the occipital condyles.

I feel you...
I go to work every day, during the day I screw around on the computer. I do chores here and there, just enough to function as an adult. Occasionally I get things accomplished outside of normal routine adult things. But as I go through my day I just do the shit out of habit. I hate my job. But I don't care. I just go through the motions, not caring enough, not motivated enough to actually change anything. I don't know if it's seasonal depression, full depression, or because I work midnights so I never get enough sleep and that lack of sleep is wearing me down. Probably all of the above, since I never felt quite this bad before this job.

Are you talking about the two bumps at the very back of the skull, about an inch or two directly behind your ears? I don't know either but one of them was pretty sore on me for a week, and I hadn't bumped my head either.

Hot Pockets only have two stages for me, undercooked (middle cold) or fucking lava. No in between. I've had like seven microvaves and its always been this way.

How much time do you put it in? 

Try 2 minutes and 35 seconds and let it cool for about 1 minute.

How long will it be before we have walking, talking, attractive, furry robots that can pass the Turing test? I won't be surprised if it happens in our lifetime. The uncanny valley effect isn't as pronounced with anthropomorphic animal shapes, and they'd be softer than the stereotypical robots of popular culture. They could serve as caregivers, workers, and maybe even become friends with an advanced enough AI.

Wtf technology!! My iPhone 4S has been having issues; I've just been trying to ignore them but today it got bad enough to warrant action. I reinstalled the OS and tried to restore my stuff from an iCloud backup created early this morning, but when i selected that option, for some strange reason it asked me for an old, outdated version of my Apple ID that was under a different email. Since the email field in the login was incorrect and uneditable, it wouldn't accept my password. So, I went online and changed my Apple ID back to my old email as a temporary workaround, but then when I tried the restore again it asked me for my new ID instead!!! What the friggin' hell..... But strangely enough, this time it accepted my password for some reason, and I guess we'll see if it successfully restores or not...

Funny, I've also used several microwaves, but I've never had a problem with hot pockets. Standard 2 minutes and everything.

I do right after a clean cut so I can get a look at the inside of an agate or something before it dries out and clouds over (pre-polishing cuts often do this, especially when using a tile saw blade instead of lapidary saw blade, which is much thinner and finer diamond grit.)

What do rocks taste like?
