This water-like substance fell from the sky the other day. 

Californian legends speak of such a natural occurrence but we only hear of them in the form of tales from days long passed.

 

You can take our snow when it comes. Please do.

I pirate things because they don't have ads and also because I'm not waiting an entire year to see new content on streaming services.

I'm not gonna buy cable to watch 2 shows and only between the hours of FUCK and YOU because in the Year Of Our Lord 2015 I get to decide when I want to watch things and at what times I want a break.

If I get superior service at the best possible price (Free) what's even the point.

I've found that when I can't experience media for free I just ignore it altogether now.

Also can't think of anything I would tolerate ads for anymore.

Same.
If I can't get it for free / without ads, I'll just stick with what I already have.

I don't plan on ever using Spotify. I'm way too picky with my music. I'm not the type of person who, in their leisure, would want to listen to just anything. It has to be something in my range of taste.

Spotify lets you look up individual songs and artists, browse by genre, look up user-created playlists based around a genre, and shows similar artists if you click on a band's page.

So I don't
understand?

I've gotten several compliments on my hair the past few days. It's makes me happy, but confused because every single time it's a black chick.

What does it mean.

Could mean a lot of things.

When I worked in retail, I'd always get compliments from black ladies on my hair, and I had one in one of my art classes in community college who liked to play with my hair. No idea why, they just did. I'd like to believe my hair is just that fabulous, but I mean some of you have seen my picture, it's really not.

Maybe they just really like hair.

You're like genuinely handsome as fuck though so I figured you'd be used to that.

not really

unless my mum counts

nobody has touched it yet. I dunno how I would react.

also, it's weird that the stereotype is that white people like to touch black people's hair

I'm also an actual Spotify subscriber. Before streaming services came around I hardly ever paid for any music -- the price was just too high to justify given my listening habits.

I am worried that Spotify won't survive long term, though. I keep seeing artists and labels pulling albums to try and force more direct sales. And now there's Apple Music which I doubt Apple will even try to run at a profit. It is very hard to compete with a corporation of that size that's just using their offering as a loss leader.

It goes both ways really. Because they both have very different hair styles/textures, it's natural they'd be curious.

Welp, somehow I managed to get through a whole day with only 2 hours sleep and a 20-minute nap. I've never done that before. I felt quite normally awake throughout the whole day too, which is weird.

Probably shouldn't make a habit of it though.

When I worked 12 hour shifts, sometimes due to anxiety I just wouldn't sleep the night before. I dunno how I would make it through that 12 hours but I did, and that's something.

Pff wow, that's not a good thing but at the same time it's actually a little bit impressive. If I had to go to school with no sleep at all I'd probably fall asleep in class straight away, let alone a 12 hour shift.

I wasn't awake all night because of anxiety or anything similar though, I had to stay up late to do some homework which I stupidly left to the last minute to do. Ended up finishing it at 4:30 AM and probably fell properly asleep around 5 AM.

Some people just don't have those kinds of boundaries.


Yeah, they don't have them with other people, but I guarantee you if the situation was reversed they'd probably feel trespassed or violated.

I admit partial fault for this only because I failed to establish limits early on since I thought it would pass and the novelty of touching me would wear off and I didn't want to be that 'DON'T TOUCH ME YOU FILTHY NORMIE' guy but it's getting old for me even if it isn't for them.

Just make a voodoo doll and punch it everytime they touch you. Even if it doesn't do anything to them, I think it'll send the message across nicely.

I'm 18 and I still have these fucking zits. Fuck off, goddamit! The worst part is that it's those that are deep inside your skin and hurt like hell. Ok not like hell but still

Fun part is that when you finally start to get rid of them you still have about 5 left that just keep shifting places, you get rid of them on your chin and 1 day later it pops up again on your nose -.- thank god that cream I have keeps it down to 5, I used to have zits all over my forehead and acne on my chin and around my nose.

Going to a dermatologist might help, the cream that guy gave me work wonders :D

"It's the Blockbuster video of the restaurant industry," Allen said, referencing the video rental chain that was eventually undone by streaming video and the Internet. "Animatronics were relevant and cool in the 1970's or 1980's, but they're creepy today," Allen added.

 I just had my puny teenage heart ripped out of my chest and eaten, Mortal Kombat style. This is coming from someone who has power over Chuck E. Cheese. With this attitude, I'm expecting the animatronics to be removed from all stores around 2017. Hold on while I cry myself to sleep.

Or they could repurpose the animatronics for purposes other than to entertain small children. Maybe an animatronic concert hall?

originaljoke.exeIn reality, what they (sadly) will most likely do is remove all the cosmetics from the bots and either sell the bare framework or send them out to a scrap metal facility.

Yeah as creepy as those things are a restaurant chain probably isn't the kind of entity that would try to capitalize on something by making it into a horror franchise. It's not like there isn't a market for it though.

Acne sucks. I have to deal with it still at 21. Hell my mom is 44 and it still effects her worse than me. I'm kinda lucky it keeps clear off my face almost always. I don't know what you're doing about it, but if it seems like nothing really works, you should go in and talk to your doctor and see what they say.
