Did I offend some crabby gypsy woman at some point in the recent past? Geez.
Are flies drawn to you as if you were that feller from Peanutsâ„¢? If you answer in the affirmative then that is a possibility. That or the whole bohemian thing just isnt working for you.

You do know what overqualified means, yeah?

I'm the smoothest-looking Lebowski THEY'LL ever lay their eyes on. 😛

Oh, certainly. I understand all of the true nuances behind that phrase. I still think it's a big steaming pile of donkey caca.
I'm applying for work in the same industry for basically the same pay, just full-time. The two days a week work schedule I'm doing now just ain't cutting it. Overqualified my aunt Petunia.
That guy they hired CLEARLY climbed into someone's ass over there to get it. That's just how it is. But that's not how I roll.
 
I rarely talk to my uncle. Like really rarely as in never. I don't dislike him or anything... it's just... my dad's side of the family is not so close to me... he just facebook chatted me about wars being about the power elite and their money. It's just kind of awkward...
 
Omg I saw this when I signed on to msn and it sent me into a rage:

This makes me so infuriated! The schools should not have the right to commit children without their parents approval, without the parents even being told!! That is outrageous!! Children shouldn't be put in psych wards unless it is ABSOLUTELY necessary they are horrible places!! Traumatizing! And maybe I'm just sort of over identifying with this cause I've been there but it's horrible! People have no idea how traumatizing it is for a little kid, its so scary.

Why would you put a child through that, and to do it without the parents consent?! Suspend the kid, tell their parents, but this is outrageous. If you think the kid is a danger to himself or another student suspend them or expell them whatever you want, talk to their parents about commiting them if you want, but what right does a school have to do this?!

UGH!! It infuriates me!

We do have the responsibility to involuntarily commit a person, regardless of age if we believe that they are an imminent threat to themselves or others. And we put our license on the line every time that we do, as we are open to law suit. I do not know this case, but as a child and adolescent therapist, I can confidently say that it is necessary at times for the safety of the child or the public. It isn't 1970, the facilities aren't horrible like they used to be.

My vent for today is this...teething. Seriously, getting teeth should not be this painful. Come on! Poor thing, he was finally feeling better from his cold.

yeah, but parents need to be notified. and asked. if you're going to take their kid for 72 hours, they have a right to know and give their permission

it wasn't 1970 when I was in one as a child and it was traumatic. It doesn't have to be a horrible facility to be traumatic for the child. I'm sorry but teachers should NOT have the right to do that.

YESYESYES! The ways of doing it in this specific example might not be perfect but if my school had taken an interest and done something to help me I wouldn't have tried to kill myself about 4 times when I was younger.
I'm bored. I have a serious addiction. This forum is so bad for me. It's limiting my time and my intelligence levels. I'm sick of hearing the same conversations and I'm sick of trying to be sugary sweet all the time to everyone. I feel like I spend my time on here pretending to be someone I'm not all the time. I miss my real life friends that will tell it like it is and that will just laugh at me and tell me to take another shot when I'm honest. I guess it's time to step away from here again. Try and remember how awesome I am outside of forums.

Shame just as I'm getting to know people around here, but I know the feeling from other boards. I've been a member of a Dr Who board for about 8 years now and there's not much left to say until new episodes come along.

It is difficult sometimes when you have to do things are you morally apposed to to get or keep a job. Kudos to you for not climbing into someone's ass, no matter how good the donkey looked.

The 'yes men' I work with get praised while me, being the argumentative bloke I am (no really, I know its hard to believe) always ends in a near screaming match just to present a rational common sense idea. So right on to you, Old Man, once you start down that rabbit hole 😕 it's hard to get out.
 
Having a drink thrown in your face is not as fun as it looks like in the movies.... Even more so when it was done by a loved one.

Been there, done that. I know I'm awesome, but it never stops amazing me how jealous guys can get. Entire pint in my face for talking to another male - good times.
 
I'm too young to crack and pop like this when I move. I'm too young to be this stiff. I'm too young to make old people noises when I stand up. I need a chiropractor... but they cost WAY too much money. I'm in pain

The boards can be very addictive.

You know you're addicted to Buffy Boards when...

If you can't handle the addiction on your own ask for help. Maybe ask the mods for a temp ban? A day, a week, a month or for what ever time you feel you need. Not the first solution but if nothing else works... If you don't like what it's doing to you being away for a while, or forever, sounds like a good thing. Good luck with trying on your own though.

I've done it before and I can do it again! Last time I was gone for about 8 months!
I'm sick and tired of everyone coming to me with their problems. "My ex has just been diagnosed with Bipolar, can I give him your number for a chat?"; "I'm having problems in my relationship", "I'm having problems at work", "My SEN child is too much to deal with, so you can do it".

Y'know what? I'm ****ing struggling here. I spent two hours last night not saying a thing. A small "y'allright" would've been nice. Nothing major, don't wana spend three hours talking through my problems. But someone to notice would be nice. Someone to care. But this is just a reminder that I'm a disposable friend. There when you want me, thrown away when you don't.

I really have no sympathy for those who moan about having a bad hangover. Its your fault you drank so much the night before and stayed up until goodness knows what time. Nobody forced you in to it, so deal with how you feel and shut up. Sorry I seem to have my bitch head on lately. 😀

"Sorry I seem to have my bitch head on lately." Agreed! I always whinge about my hangovers. Why shouldn't I?

Here's how to handle it, while drinking, drink two drinks, drink a glass of water. The 2:1 ratio will keep you hydrated, and fill your stomach so you don't get too drunk. I've NEVER had a hangover in my life.
Dear Winnie the Pooh singing story book,

I'm gonna need you to stop singing that horrible song. Now. You are in danger of going to live in the closet and I am sure that the other toys can warn you that you will not return from that trip. So, please, for your own good- stfu.

Kthanks.

Oh snap.. that totally reminded me of that damnable Teddy Ruxpin.. then that reminded me of that damnable bear in AI.. then that reminded me of that damnable kid. Ugh. Haley Joel Osment or Osmund or Osborn.. whatever his name is. I really dislike him. He just looks bizarre and I think his movies are pants.

This reminded me of that damn Ernie doll my sister had when she was little. It was "Goodnight Ernie" and it would say "*yawn* I'm sleepy. I need a nap. *snore, snore* I feel great!" And you could press the other hand and make it say "I feel great!" alone. That thing was so sensitive and would go off if ANYTHING moved... It died 'cause I took a hammer to it in the middle of the night. She was really pissed. But it was nothing compared to what my grandmother did to my furby.

Although Furbies are a different story because I'm 99.9999% sure they were possessed or demons or cursed like the dolls in season 8 or something They weren't just just robotic toys... That's for damn sure.

i liked Furbies. It was working until batteries needed changing and then I messed up the nails. So I couldn't.

My furby malfunctioned and screamed and wiggled it's ears and blinked a lot. That's all it did.
I hate speaking in front of a lot of people, I have to talk about suicide tomorrow in school, I am freaking out about it now, and it's just gonna get worse.. why do teachers make us do this? it's stupid!! 😡 "it's important to learn" yeah I've been forced to do this crap since like third grade and I still feel uneasy about it so what is the point!

there's nothing wrong with feeling nerves, most people do with that kind of thing, just use the nervous energy to do a good job of it and then relax after and you'll feel better for it
Abbeycat agrees: i liked Furbies. It was working until batteries needed changing and then I messed up the nails. So I couldn't.
I don't know what was wrong or different about my Furby... but it wouldn't shut up in the middle of the night so my grandmother took the batteries out. Then as she was walking away it said "feed me" in that really creepy Furby way (WITH NO BATTERIES IN IT)... So she beat the hell out of it and smashed it to pieces.

That made me laugh. It's hysterical and creepy at the same time. Furbies used to freak me out...

Ohh wow! Creepy!
I'm not quite sure what the matter is, but I'm out of sorts at the moment. Not sleeping too well, chesty cold and a nagging feeling that I'm not seeing things right- yesterday I won an award at work and some of us went for tapas afterwards, and I know I should be happy and proud of it, but I find it a lot easier to be envious of other people than pleased with what I've achieved. It's a weird situation at times in work- I feel at times as if the managers know where they want other people to go, but just want to flog me to death in the work that I'm doing. And I struggle to see myself doing anything else.
