That's Dark Heresy, right? I know a little about the universe, more than I know about, say, Eberron, so I'd be down to play a few sessions of it if you can scrape together some other participants. I don't think any of my friends would be into it, although I could put out an announcement on the Enigma mailing list and pretty easily get a few near-complete-strangers to come play.
Yeah it's Dark Heresy. I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be running a game for total strangers, never done it before. And the idea of throwing $40 at something I might get to run sometime is a bit strong. Maybe I'll just wait on it. I'd also love to run a Legend of the Five rings or a Serenity game sometime.
PUA thread is giving me visions of hordes of awkward nerds taking lexapro to help them pick up chicks, only to have it rob them of their libido.
Wait they actually suggest that
wtf
No, the PUA people do not suggest that. Someone in the thread was recommending people in there with anxiety disorders should get help and mentioned lexapro. Then a couple of them were all "yay drugs to help I should get them".
I would donate $5-10/year to fix the forum problems
Same. I'd probably pay more.
Me too, though if I was paying money I'd want some guarentees, but I wonder how many would pay for a more reliable forum.
That's pretty much exactly why they don't take donations. Not the misspelling, the fact that as soon as people start financially supporting the forum, they start expecting a set of standards in exchange for their support.

G.I. Joe made me want to play Army of Two again, mostly because all the Cobra troops wore masks that looked exactly like the ones in Army of Two. So I played Army of Two, and after dying a few times because I couldn't remember how to make my partner take aggressive cover, I got back into it and it's still a pretty fun game.

I wouldn't see an issue with that. I mean if people paid for a more stable board, they could also pay mods part time and get a better establishment of rules. I believe Something awfuls pay boards operate in that way.

The brain chemistry of depression and anxiety is not fully understood. However, a growing body of evidence supports the view that people with these disorders have an imbalance of the brain's neurotransmitters. These are chemicals in the brain that allow nerve cells to communicate. One of these neurotransmitters is serotonin. An imbalance in serotonin may be an important factor in the development of depression and anxiety.
Serotonin is released from one nerve cell and passed to the next. In the process, some of the serotonin released is reabsorbed by the first nerve cell
SSRIs block the reabsorption of serotonin into the first nerve cell
It is this blocking action that causes an increased amount of serotonin to become available at the next nerve cell
This is how SSRIs affect the balance of serotonin in the brain

Matt! Wanna co-op that ho?
I bought it for like $10 and it's been sitting around ever since.
Once again I'm happy I don't take any kind of medication.
Congratulations? Do you want a gold star?
I don't know is it a doctor presribed star?
I'm just saying I'm terrible with remembering to do certain things, and if my body chemistry needed it I'd worry like fuck I'd forget and die. Its one reason I make sure to watch my sugars now, I don't want diabeetus I couldn't get the needles in me!

I just made my first impulse purchase in a while: several bottles of calorie free dressing. French, thousand island, and Russian (I'm a total sucker for the sugary dressings). I may end up hating them. We shall see! I'm tired of using a light, sour vinaigrette all the time.

Time to listen to the latest episode of Just A Minute and pretend I have nothing to do (until tomorrow morning when the panic sets in again...)

Anti Anxiety medication. It's an SSRI. It's pretty much the new hotness.
Aww, thank you Pods!

Gah, I am such a nerd.
Calm and positive thought, Bob. Go to your happyplace!
meaning: 1. it probably won't do shit to someone who isn't depressed and 2. It'll have to be taken for a least a few weeks before you notice anything
Me too, though if I was paying money I'd want some guarentees, but I wonder how many would pay for a more reliable forum.

This is upsetting.
Ok whats an ssri? Sorry I know little of this medication stuff.
pleasepaypreacher.net
uhh Lexapro is prescribed just as often for anxiety as it is depression.
Wargames in what sense? Like Axis and Allies, or like Warmachine?
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor
I was thinking like boardgame wargames, so more of the axies and allies variety.
Have you heard about that boardgame that is basically BloodBowl for Warmachine?
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
they don't really know why they work, but
it has to do with the absorption of a chemical between the synapses in your brain
some people benefit by having the chemistry altered
I wouldn't see an issue with that. I mean if people paid for a more stable board, they could also pay mods part time and get a better establishment of rules. I believe Something awfuls pay boards operate in that way.

specifically serotonin levels in the brain
I take one of Lexapros older cousins it's worked for me. As you can tell by the well-adjusted cheery nexus you all know and love.

there's plenty of other meds for single use anxiety quashing(not that I'm endorsing illegal use of anything)
Congratulations? Do you want a gold star?
Edit: Wow, totally read your post wrong. Read it as "Once again I'm happy and I don't take any kind of medication"
Ignore me and my groggy self.
