Morning fakers.

@Ceallach:

I'm exceedingly glad my family mostly stays out of my business. My mom seems to focus on prying into my sister's business and giving her unneeded and sometimes dangerous advice.

At least your dad is cool?
 
My family was comparatively functional. Parents fight a lot but otherwise fairly smooth sailing. Every family member is a bit quirky except me who is a beacon of normality and awesomeness and has no flaws, no sir. None.

You are a Surface Book owner, though. Surely that counts as reckless and impulsive.

Nah. Zune was dead before I got a job and I didn't want one when it was a thing.

Apparently they were fairly good though.

My MP3 player was my samsung flip phone, followed by a Sansa Clip.

I owned one.

They were way better than iPods.

But having a dedicated MP3 player at that time was a little silly. Might be if I hadn't dropped that thing off a wind turbine I'd probably still be using it tbh.

I just bring my iphone to the gym. All I need is my musak

Which I don't even own and stream from Youtube
 
I still rock a Sansa Clip for the gym. Build quality and interface are meh, but it's tiny and gets the job done.

It was like 30 bucks refurbished and actually has expandable storage. What more do you want really. I loaded like 3 audiobooks and some music onto it for my Germany trip. Worked great.

Now I have my giant Note 3 that I use for music/audiobooks but it's so fucking big that it's awful to take running with me.

So... a dedicated MP3 player isn't so silly.

I used to have those fancy mp3 players by Creative, even had that really fat one with the track pad in the middle that kinda got ripped off by Apple(Creative Zen:M)

The most famous person born on my birthday is that guy from duck dynasty. either that or tyson ritter. you got lee westwood and kris letang and then it drops off a cliff


wait apparently i skimmed over chipper jones and barbra streisand.
 
Has he perpetrated any new fuckery or is this residual "fuck this guy"?

...

Also, the most famous dude I share a birthday with is Cervantes. :lol

No he just tries to tell me what to do all the time even though we're the same level and he's a fucking idiot so

Also he never shuts the fuck up so I have to listen all shift about how he spent so much money on a new bed and omg his wife keeps kicking him in her sleep and wow he watched four anime episodes yesterday and took a shit at exactly 3:47 PM mountain time

Also he's a brony and gets touchy feely when you give him shit for it, I mean I mentioned once that bronies creeped me out ( like idc if you like the show, but don't be weird about it) and he was all "can we not talk about it I'm sensitive"

Man must be fascinating to listen about his anime and wife all the time. Honestly from what you've shared it sounds like he's the kinda dude who'd marry his 3DS waifu, feel sorry for his potentially real wife.

I figured, I wish I shared a birthday with him he's a fucking boss.
 
Also....okay, sorry, this is gonna turn into me venting a bit.

So I've never done anything like this, right? Like I've never done construction, never fixed a car, I've never really used a wide variety of tools and shit. So all this is super new to me.

This motherfucker likes to mention AT EVERY GIVEN OPPORTUNITY how much he's worked with his hands fixing the house or tinkering with a car and straight up told my SSgt today that he has a lot of experience and "can help out a lot".

Bitch....stop trying to make yourself seem better than me because you've done this shit before. You're not fucking perfect, you're brand new to this job, same as me, and you don't have to talk down to me or pretend I don't fucking matter to boost your own ego. Like I hardly ever mention that I have a FUCKING BACHELOR'S DEGREE, because I'm NOT TRYING TO ACT BETTER THAN ANYONE.

SO FUCK YOU.

Is it possible for you to get transferred to a different 'department'? Apparently he is seriously affecting your morale and I bet you're not the only one.

Nope. We're the same job, so we have to work together.

The best I can hope for is to get moved to a different shift, but they moved me to this one for a specific reason because I fucked up and have to do some extra stuff, so chances of that happening are non existent.

Ya, sometimes you just gotta work with assholes. As long as you get to vent about it...

SO FUCK YOU.

Ego boosting using other people doesn't work if they don't care. Be indifferent to his comments. Not "whatever" indifferent, more "oh that's good" indifferent.

I gotta take up boxing or some shit

I can't do this anymore

Yea, go hit heavy shit with sand in it until you get tired, it's surprisingly cathartic.

...

In other news, I've finally started to catch up on GoT Season 5 and with 3 episodes down it's not so bad so far, if a little slow.

Why'd GRRM and now the showrunners have to ruin Dany's character tho?

So much wasted potential in GoT, lets be honest.

"Oh hey this looks like it'll be WAY COOL"

weeks later

"Huh, guess not, what a fucking waste"

I'm hoping that the Iron Islands plot is actually good this time

If Yara / Asha dies tho I'm gonna be pissed, she's one of my top five faves

I'm enjoying The Americans way too much. I wish there were more games that covered the less action heavy aspect of espionage and the Cold War period setting. Please somebody do it
It's your chance, Nintendo!

Episode 8 of mostly all you'll want to remember about S5. Maybe some of the KL and NW stuff.

I've been enjoying about 90% of S6. So far so good.

There'll be a learning curve but it can be ridiculously fun and therapeutic.
