The bank will be shipping me a new Platinum Visa card complete with loads of possible debt and misfortune to follow. Mouahahaha!

Also, I'm buying Evil Genius on Steam because I've heard so many nice things about it.

I'm kind of liking the fact that I'm on somewhat solid ground financially now having had to build my career out of nothing after suffering the loss of both parents. This is a thread about me and how awesome I am.

But it can be about you too. For all the hardships you're facing or the rewards you're reaping at this time. What's motivating or demoralizing you at the moment?

OH. This JUST in.

The CRTC is deciding the fate of the Canadian Internet at the moment and what is considered intrusive in terms of managing it. Fun stuff.

    I'm going BACK TO SCHOOL in august

    will I be like Adam Sandler, Ernest, or Rodney Dangerfield?

    or some gorgeous amalgam of all three

    honestly

    if you think about it

    sure if you lose both your parents you have to succeed personally

    what other choice do you have

    someone come back when they've succeeded despite parents

    If there are Kin to sacrifice, I haven't been told about them.

    I've been told the pull out method can be 98% effective by magazines!

    Eh....

    in the past year i've had a stroke, watched my finances spiral wildly out of control, my engagement to my fiancee completely disintegrate and watching her have a nervous breakdown, and now i am living basically in poverty off of government disability cheques

    and yet

    i am pretty happy about my life right now and the direction it is going in

    whoooooo

    Adam Sandler's general likeability with the physique of the other two, perhaps.

    I meant kin in the general family sense. i.e. your parents.

    This may have been in poor taste?

    Apologies if you feel they are necessary.

    now being forever banned from said library on account of the celebrations you engaged in is a small price to pay, no doubt.

    I used to get upset when it was still fresh in my mind but now, about 10 years later, I'm rather ok with humor revolving around death.

    earlier, i was brushing my teeth and i noticed my first ever grey hair

    man, i was under the impression i was going to be dead by 25

    now i am 26 and i got me a grey hair

    never thought i'd see that day

    i feel pretty good about it

    when you spend most of your adolescence and adult life figuring you are going to die in a few years

    actually getting old feels kinda nice

    You should've played along with my joke, then, but you ruined it.

    listen

    it doesn't need to look like murder

    you don't even need to do anything, yourself

    all you have to be willing to do

    is share a small portion of that insurance money

    and things can just

    happen

    i'm sure of it
