    So kids got Goat Simulator over weekend. It feels like someone's drunk idea for a Tony Hawk mod that was published on a whim.

    Bravo game developers, bravo.

    that was the actual mission statement i think

    facial hair is weird

    for the longest time after hitting puberty i only ever used to grow significant facial hair around my lips

    then last year i started getting thick under-chin hair growth

    i guess it was existential crisis facial hair or something? who knows. it's here to stay though.

    i'm asian so it'll never be a full beard or anything. which is fine because i prefer to be clean-shaven

    how many animes have you watched in the last year

    chanus this may come as a surprise but i actually have only watched 3 animes in the last 7-8 years

    which is probably more than most people in chat but still

    have you started wearing a fedora or playing magic the gathering

    i'm just trying to rule out a case of chronic neckbeard developing

    i actually quit playing magic a long time ago

    i've been clean chanus! i swear

    i also own no hats other than a full-head knit cap to keep my ears warm in winter!

    my friend just sent me a link to a receptionist job at a clinic that specializes in aspergers patients. So after a bit of slight searching, I guess it is not a terribly uncommon opinion that trans people are possibly autistic or have aspergers, and dysphoria is only a symptom or some nonsense. My friend for some reason also thinks I might be autistic, and so reading this stuff is really just making me feel bad. It doesn't help that I came across quite a few medical "opinions" that were just really not ok. Blech.

    i wouldn't rush to self diagnose

    i think almost everyone can look at the symptoms of aspergers and think "oh shit that's me" but, it's kinda more complicated than that

    Oh I don't think I have it, I just think it is an unpleasant apparent stereotype, which could potentially make applying for this job awkward.

    huh

    it's honestly not something i've ever heard of before?

    I've only heard of it very recently and I have no idea just how common the idea is.

    I would like to think that an actual medical institution dealing primarily in Asperger's patients wouldn't be cross-populated by the internet 'everything is Asperger's' crowd.

    Chanus this was at night in a not well lit house and the bottle was dark. It isn't that weird that it could be mistaken for cider.

    my first thought was for her to just tell him she has a boyfriend

    except there's unfortunate patriarchal implications to that answer

    so the best thing is likely just to say no she's not interested

    but then what if the guy is a jerk about it

    So then I'm back to just tell him she has a boyfriend

    Is there an Android program (or system setting) that lets you change vibration/loudness settings at specified future points? I forget to silence it when sleeping sometimes, which can suck (and also has led to people not messaging me when they think I'm sleeping) or forget to make it make sound again, and paranoid during classes and such. If I could set it to turn itself silent or loud or whatever at specified points, that'd be rad.

    Second I prefer to have a nice scotch while sitting next to a beautiful lady. Mostly because I like scotch and ladies.

    (I have done this. Lady was drinking scotch,too. Sitting outside enjoying a nice spring night)

    Man when I drink scotch next to my spouse he's like "that smells disgusting; please keep your distance"

    He is not a good drinking buddy; becomes sad if drinking more than a tiny amount.
