The unbelievable amount of drama and childishness surrounding my nephew’s ill-conceived marriage and inevitable divorce.

This soap opera is in its third year, and (as he is my wife’s “favorite”) I have a front row seat.

If they both fell into a live volcano, I’d be okay with it — but sadly, there are children involved.

Oy fucking vey, indeed.

Two of my D&D players going AWOL on me without warning, possibly all year or longer.

Also, my semester’s timetable which forces me to stay in uni until half past 9 pm on wednesdays and fridays. Fucking hell, firday should end earlier not later.

Today actually.
My eldest daughters auntie sat on her iphone 4s (a lot of people doing this lately!), a cracked screen no less…..
Anyway since I love to take electrical equipment to bits, I offered my services on replacing said cracked screen with one she purchased on the tinterweb.

The groan occurred just when I was on the home straight, when I noticed that I’d trapped to screen power strip, as I tried to pull it free THE FUCKING THING RIPPED!.......DOH!

Needless to say, she had to go to a proper shop and pay further 50 snots to get it done again.

I suppose, sometimes its pays to get stuff done proper first time.

(She’s still talking to me)

I hate it how a lot of pictures on Facebook depict abandoned puppies or children with massive scars on their faces…and then proceed to tell me that if I don’t click ’‘like’’, I’m a heartless asshole. I mean it’s like, you posted this picture, and so now you’ve done your part for the injustices of this world? Get real.
Post a petition or something, but don’t go whoring for likes.

And for anyone who wants to argue with me about critical awareness, then just hit me up with your best lolcat or whatever.

I still won’t find it cute, and it will only make my inner darkness grow. ’‘kicks some flowers’’

Asshole since 1982, thanks bro.

Listening to the disgraceful comments made by Senator Cory Bernardi same sex marriage. How do people like this end up as Members of Parliament.

@Bellatrix Do i have to remind you Strom motherfucking Thurmond has been four times president of the senate and also holds the record for the longest filibuster, which he made against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 AKA the act that actually forbids intimidation, battery, and other crimes aimed at preventing people (mainly blach people in the south) from voting a candidate or at all? To clarify, you had a guy who was in favour of unchecked manipulation of the electorate, intimidation of voters and other antidemocratic shit as head of the senate. And you’re surprised you have bigots in the senate?

Bellatrix's avatar

@Thammuz, I’m in Australia. Even if I wasn’t, I would still be appalled at the comments made by this public official. I also don’t believe Bernardi is the only bigot in our government. He was just dumb enough to say what he thought on the record. Both our lower and upper houses just knocked back legislation to allow same-sex marriage. Makes no sense to me.

@Bellatrix Oh, sorry, i assumed.

Reading about yet another young lady who has fallen hard for a guy who she barely knows who has potentially dangerous “issues” or who has already been rude or mean to her, or has given her mixed signals and red flags, or who is currently seeing someone else, or who has cheated on her or who has tried to flee from her, and then having the young lady continue on her quest for said guy. Instead of looking for a good man like Adirondackwannabe or LuckyGuy ;- )

Sigh

I really couldn’t divulge that !!

I actually posted this question not too long ago. I guess I’m questioning a particular friendship at the moment. It’s not so much a friendship to her as it is a “competition” to prove her own greatness. I guess I’m the “ugly” friend whose only purpose is to boost her own morale.
