Support NeoGAF

lots of First Aid Kit fans here i see... ill join the parade with this beautiful cover of Waterloo Sunset

I think that should be pretty obvious, tbh. Lest the disappearing avatar phenomenon worry you, it is a temp ban. terry will be back in exactly two weeks and hopefully rested, recuperated, and better for the experience after this brief respite from neogaf.

I wasn't sure if anyone was going to say anything about the post, but it was tacky and not appropriate for this thread. We have the b/s/t thread for that. I understand Terrisus is going through a lot of issues, but hopefully the break gives him time to come back better adjusted to certain threads, especially this one.

I hate modern country music, and yet.

My favorite Kacey Musgraves song is actually "Stupid," for whatever that's worth. I think her music is pretty clever and approachable regardless of genre.

I also dislike modern country but Kacey is my girl. Love her so much.

Well, I failed at my competitive exam. We were over 6000 people taking this exam, I ended up at the 300th~ place, they only took the first 125 better ones.

I'm frustrated beyond words. Really, really frustrated. I wanted that job.

*long sigh* Well, back to look for whatever job I can find, while preparing myself to pass the same exam next year (and others too). I'm really bummed out though, feeling really... empty. Pretty sure my brain is doing the same thing as in Inside Out:

console turning grey, becoming emotionally shut down.

that's a bummer sorry to hear, it probs doesn't help loads but your position is still really amazing, and you can improve that score even more in the next year

Just dropping by to say hello new(-ish) thread!

Thank you for your kind words, kinda needed to hear that. I've known since yesterday, and I was "just" disappointed, but new feelings are showing up today with my family pestering me on what I am going to do, and I was on the verge of crying a few moments earlier. Usually I feel apathetic or annoyed after failing something, but this is getting to me more than I thought... Currently printing my curriculum vitæ and getting ready to look for jobs in town (and doing the same online tonight). Anything will do, I just need something to earn money and keep my mind occupied.

When did the GAF logo changed? It was prettier animated.

Spoiler

I know it was too hard on browsers tho.

Shane Dawson is bisexual

That's cool. I thought he was full gay but this is even cooler.
Good for him.

Wow, beautiful song! Thanks! =D

Since you like foreign stuff, I would like to recommend Marisa Monte, an amazing brazilian singer:

I know that feeling, bro. I work for a public University and I had to take a competitive test too to get in, and I've failed two times before I joined. Keep trying, I always thinks that this kind of tests doesn't measure only knowledge but also if you are trained to do them. You'll do better in the next one, so calm down now, you will find a job to earn some coins and don't forget to keep studying for the next one! =)

Facebook guy just randomly talked about FFXI in his last message (think email style, rather than chat) and was all "I'm worried this might scare you because I don't know if you're into nerdy things." He even tried to explain internet lingo to me in the message. As I read it, I was just smugly smiling.

P.S.: I'm sorry if I end up mentioning this guy a lot and then nothing comes of it. I just had to share the FFXI stuff though.

Awn that's cute! I remember when I started talking to my boyfriend, I told him that I was playing SF IV (I was ansewering him between rounds!) and he said: "Wow, that's a violet game". He was just messing with me, of course. But he wasn't nerdy at all, now he's kinda addicted to Diablo 3. Oh, and I've taught him do his first Hadouken <3 - then he bought a 360 and he became a surprisingly good Balrog player.

 

[Subaru]

Double post, sorry.

 

[Sheik]

I'm happy that they didn't bury their lesbian(s) kill her off at the end of season 2, although they took the most painful possible alternative route at the end of 2x15 anyway because the writers on that show are sadists kill me pls good god

That said, I am deeply and hopelessly in love with the show and am reserving this to turn into an avatar someday when I am less lazy and season 3 is looming much closer.

I wonder if they went the direction of 2x15 because they weren't sure if they'd be able to get Alycia Debnam-Carey, the actress who portrays Lexa, back since she signed onto the new Fear the Walking Dead spinoff. That way they have the option of bringing her back or getting rid of her later. I'm still bitter about it. My poor shipper heart...

Spoiler

ADC is such a talented young actress. HER FACE THO.

Great potential avatar choice! Gah, no season 3 until 2016. :/

 

[Nohar]

Well, icarus-daedelus, I've been listening to Merry Go' Round all day long (with a little of Stupid thrown into the mix). Thank you for the discovery.

1st episode of Sense8 was interesting enough. I'll continue to watch.

 

[Delio]

Haha. I was actually referring to this one:

That's Josh Dun the drummer for Twenty one Pilots.

Pre-ordered Zero Escape 3. For once, I'm gonna get that damn watch. Gonna rock it everywhere.

I was hoping it would be for iPhone/Android as well this time around, but it looks like I'll be turning on my 3DS at some point.

Deon Graham was in American Ninja Warrior. Hes got a nice body and hes a gay seaman. Unfortunately he didnt make it. Lots of people are failing at that same spot though.

He looks pretty weird in this picture. Almost plastic. Prob just a weird photo.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

I think that should be pretty obvious, tbh.

I see. Was it for posting NSFW images or for trying to sell something?

Not to me he doesn't. Think it's just the lighting.

I'm sure you can get on one of the various cam sites and get that.

Start stripping, buddy!

 

[berzeli]

Oh, I totes missed the First Aid Kit discussion, they're absolutely wonderful. One of my favourite things is that for the last couple of years they've gotten dragged out on stage at the Polar Music Prize ceremony to make the pop-music recipient cry; Patti Smith, Paul Simon and Emmylou Harris

I just discovered them last night and already love them to bits. I read an article about them that referred to them as country/americana, so idk. Not all of their songs "sound country" though, that's for sure.

Been a fan of them since 2008... You're late to the party sis!

 

[Aarglefarg]

If I could answer, I thought what he implied he would do over the Sailor Moon Spice Girls picture. Sailor Moon are underage I think.

That is what the link went to for me yesterday (links to posts don't always go to the exact right place on the page for me) but now it is going to the selling post so I don't know.

Too bold for me. As they say in The Bling Ring, never do anything you wouldn't want on the front page of the LA Times.

I'll be 33 next month. I already have quite a bit of white on my sides and theres this small patch thats front and center. I'm not sure if I like it yet but the lady who cuts my hair likes it, but I'm the one paying her tips so that may not mean much.

My favorite country album still remains the "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack. The dog is already getting used to us singing those songs to him. He gets "Didn't Leave Nobody But the Baby" sung to him almost every night..

(Although the "Patsy Cline: 12 Greatest Hits" album holds a special place in my heart. It was the first gift I ever bought for Greg.)

I think one of the things I miss most about childhood is not having to worry about bills, a budget, etc. Just coming home from school and hopping on my bike. Or going out into the woods for Calvin-&-Hobbes-style adventuring. Or spending an afternoon playing Nintendo.. *sigh*

You mean to say that you don't spend afternoons playing Nintendo still?

 

[Henchmen21]

Is that going to be your stripper persona?

They're now divided among puppy time, man time, work, housework, errands, etc etc..

Setting aside gaming time takes a very deliberate effort, sadly.

Isn't that what man time is for?
