So... How much do you usually wait to hear back from an employer after the second interview? I did mine on Thursday, I'm getting nervous cuz I haven't heard anything back but really it hasn't even been a week. This isn't for some office job or anything, it's a part time job as a cashier at Goodwill.

It is okay to ring up and ask for a timeframe of when you might hear back.
I wasn't religious, in a somewhat religious household.

that explains it then
I've played more of 64 (the DS version) than Galaxy. We all know 3D World is the best 3D Mario though, right? 😛
Havent bought that one. Then again my Wii U library is anorexic mostly thanks to me getting into cheap PC gaming. All I have is W101, Pikmin 3 (Both free), Bayonetta 1 and 2, Hyrule Warriors, Smash 4 and Mario Kart 8 IIRC
I like 64 more than Galaxy but the DS version aint that great.
Hey guys! On saturday I was at the 'fantasy pride', which is basicly a gay day at a themepark (Phantasialand). Rollercoaster all day, and party at night. Also: Wet t-shirt contest. My friend attended and won the second place, thanks to his sixpack abs.
The venue where the party took place was the kids area, but they changed it to a great club including bars, a huge DJ stage and you could ride one rollercoaster above the dancefloor.
All in all pretty amazing day. But man was I exhausted! More than 24 hours without sleep is hard (but fun).

I'm sad it lost my copy of the DS version, since I've heard it's great when played on 3DS with the circle pad. Then again, just buy the N64 VC version on Wii U.

Anyway, I do believe I promised a picture last night 😛
I took this when me and my bestie went to a theme park the other week (again, I cut him out for privacy reasons).
I'm in the US. Even tried buying on the web via UK Amazon, but it won't let me.

I'm finally done with my summer exams, probably the worst summer session I ever had to take (but that was my fault, should have worked more during the year as always...). Almost managed to fuck it up because I'm a procrastinating mess and started studying intensively way too late, but overall I think it went well. Should be able to pass on to the next year with two courses I'll have to pass again but that won't be too much of a problem.
Only two year of med school left ^_^
Also celebratory picture of me and the bf (I really need a haircut) :

Am at med school too and yeah med school exams suck on the whole! It's so hard to motivate yourself to work through the year too!!! And with university there's so much social stuff that's more worth doing 😂😂 . Have you started clinical placements?
Cute pic too, you two make a nice couple!!

That sucks. I haven't been to the dentist in over three years.
Thanks
No we start those in february next year (we've had a few half day "observation internship" that are mostly useless and just there to give you an idea of what the work in different specializations entails but that's it), I'm part super excited for that and super scared at the same time. And yeah university really doesn't make working during the year easy
But I seriously need to do that for the next semester because it's super tough and there's no way I'll be able to pass if I don't work on it the whole semester.User 73706

The best part about apps like that (esp. grindr) is when the dude's written, like, two or three paragraphs of text that always go something like
"masc dude here who likes normal people things like SPORTS and THE FOOTBALLS and GRILLING and BEING SOCIAL, masc4masc here, i'm looking for SOMETHING REALexcept also fun even though i'm like 45???, don't just say 'hi' or 'hey' or 'hello' or 'how's the weather i'm gay' have a REAL CONVERSATION, masc4masc though, if you don't have a face pic i won't respond to you, discreet here, i don't talk to disembodied chests (masc4masc just to clarify), if you're over 200 years old and don't have a credit score of at least 150 don't message me. p.s. masc4masc"
and they're somehow surprised when they're the ones that have to initiate, and more often than not their first message is literally always a two-word sentence like "hey handsome", etc. etc. along with a face pic

😂😂 I hadn't been in 13 years!
Should change my sugar devouring ways tbh... *munches on kinder bueno*
ahhh cool!! We started our clinicals at the start of 3rd year. I hope you enjoy em and it helps you narrow your specialisation options down! I hear you guys need to pick a specialty for your residency!Thanks

Yeah the exams get much harder further on, I've failed many of them 😂😂
My favorite grinder profile (that I saw on the internet) reads "I like my men like I like my milk. White, fat-free, and not expired."
That's what I think when I think of grinder overall.

Wanting the person you're having sex with to be not-dead seems like a reasonable objective at least.
Yeah and they already seem really high-maintenance for supposedly being so "masculine". These gurls are basting in irony and they don't even know it.

What are yalls stances on the word "fag" if used by a gay person?
I was having lunch with this dude and he described his roommate as "such a fag". It made me fairly uncomfortable.
Gay men expire at 30.

I'm okay with it, it's crude language but it doesn't carry anything resembling the sting that I feel when a straight person says it, especially if with contempt.
That's a best-before date, not an expiry date, expiry date is the date someone expires
The same as for most reclaimed slurs, really - I don't mind people using it to define themselves, but throwing it on others without their consent isn't particularly great. But even the self-expression thing is iffy when it's being repeatedly, consciously used in the presence of those who are clearly made uncomfortable by it; you can't ignore the history people might have with the slurs in question.
I used to say it before but I removed the usage of it over time as I changed my stance on the usage. I think the whole we are reclaiming it is not a good example and simply makes everyone feel its okay to call gays that when it really shouldn't be the case IMO.
About the same as a gay man using the word queer to describe themselves.
It disgusts me.

Queer seems at least a couple shades more benign, there aren't that many handy umbrella words but you have at least a dozen alternatives for "fag".
Pamplemousse

Like what?
umop_3pisdn

Gay guy, homosexual, etc. Finding words for that are easy, but finding a pithy word for the concept of "falling outside of heteronormativity as so defined" isn't so easy.
Pamplemousse

Pretty sure there's just gay and homosexual. I think CB's lunch partner probably meant feminine by "fag."
umop_3pisdn

He probably meant queeny or camp, which is different than just "feminine".

What's wrong with queer?
Same thing that's wrong with the f word.

Oh good evasive vagueness.
No one is going to tell you what to feel, but logically speaking they are not really analogous.
I don't see how I was being evasive at all. It's quite self explanatory. They are the same, albeit to different degrees. They are both insults. I am not comfortable identifying as an insult. Other people may be fine "Taking back" the word. I am not.
Now, the f-word is worse, of course, in the sense that it alludes to burning gays like a bundle of sticks. "Queer" is harmless by comparison. But it is still an insult. Why should I be comfortable identifying as a weird, not normal person, as though there is something wrong with me?
To be honest I feel like people these don't realize just how much of an insult it is, and just how negatively it could have affected someone in the past. The people who grew up in the 70s and had to deal with that word being hurled at them - I wonder how they feel. I've read different opinions on it.
Personally, I do not like it.
umop_3pisdn

It's not "an insult", what it is is a sometimes-insult, sometimes unproblematic word identifying an otherwise difficult-to-identify concept. It's polysemous, and that's just a fact.
I think calling it a "sometimes insult" is downplaying it, more than just a bit.
Secondly, the "sometimes unproblematic word" is exactly what I'm taking issue with, because I think it fails as such due to hits history as the former.
Taking the opinion that it is fine to take back the word is fine. Downplaying the history of the word as it was used to try and prove your point is not.
EDIT: I should be clear that I'm not oblivious to the fact that I'm in the minority on this, much as it annoys me.
