I friendzoned a girl and now she wont talk to me because she thought I wanted the V and I didn't, I thought we were just friends
Yell "take THAT, societal conception of gender roles!" and kick someone down the stairs.
I regularly do this and it's pretty great.
the worst part is she was literally my only good friend in the area, this was about a year and a half ago
Now Im getting chummy with this girl and she wanted lunch yesterday and im getting the same vibes but absolutely do not feel that way about her (like im p sure she thought it was a date)
maybe there's something wrong with me, I've been single for a long time why am I not interested by default
Well... I'm sorry, and that sucks. But it she's not going to talk to you over that it seems like she might be lacking some... maturity? I mean that shit is really, really disappointing but it's not a thing to drop a friendship over for more than a week so you get over it.
Also nothing wrong with you, you're just being a person.
She wanted the D, not a friendship. She shouldn't stick be obligated by a sense of maturity to be friends.
It sounds to me like she wanted a lot more than sex, really.
Well yeah, I was being flip. It sounds like she wanted a relationship, whereas he just wanted a friend. You shouldn't have to stick around and subject yourself to that.
Doing demo training with the sales people. And they are getting better. A few have gotten to the point where they won't embarrass us. But one of them is just so bad. Like I can watch his face and pin point the moment where his brain just locks up. I don't mean public speaking fear. I mean locking up as in his mental gears just come to a crashing halt. The look on his face is the human equivalent of a BSOD. I'm not sure how I fix this. He just starts over thinking things and then nails himself with choice paralysis. The solution would be to memorize until it's reflexive but he locks up during that.
Booked an appointment to get my first bespoke suit tomorrow from a place a friend recommended.
Going to be hit by such a sense of imposter syndrome. I don't work in the city, what am I doing.
Nice, what fabric/make you going? What city you getting it from/establishment if you don't mind? A well tailored suit can last you 20 years if you're over 20 and don't get blackout drunk at every wedding.. Chicks dig black lanel.
Little place in Westminster on Savile Row.
Friends calling back later tonight with advice on material, cut, and etc because it's something I know very little about.
Well, enjoy sir.. It's an experience you shouldn't have again for some time if things going according to plan (or if you become a bespoked addict, and get super successful).. I'm actually gonna have to wear mine today because of this formal dresscode bs for the turf club today.. Off track so much easier, and I can do it in my skivvies!
I think double breasted is still the style, but I'm not current.. I actually really need to get mine touched up by a tailor as I think I got this adjusted when I was about 20lbs heavier and had a standing role at a wedding.

Bad HD, just have to replace it.
I'm pretty sure a simple reformat could solve but my boss won't sign off on that.

Put him to sleep and tell the other salespeople he's gone to live on a farm on the country.

Management won't sign off on that either.

I felt like I was flying a bus with a pair of reins when I got into a Reaver.
heh, yeah, the handling is weird. Feels like a weird jet plane helicopter hybrid thing.
It has grown on me though.
A little. I'm still hankering for something that behaves like a helicopter when I want to blast tanks.
Yeah I just want a damn helicopter. It says I'm going like 200kph and it doesn't feel fast at all. It doesn't feel nimble in any regard. I really like flying aircraft but I'm not digging these ones.

I'm glad you've been sharing these experiences, Thoma. I've been picturing it like the suit-wearing tech-pitching equivalent of Stand and Deliver.
Donglegate and all the reaction to it is a microcosm of everything I hate about the tech community.
I've been reading a lot about this and it is very frustrating.
First off: No one should have been fired. Not even Richards.
Second off: The joke was not sexist. Immature? Perhaps, but not sexist.
Third off: Jesus Christ no one should have been fired I mean holy shit.
Fourth off: Adria Richards is a hypocrite who has made dick jokes on her own twitter and has asserted that blacks cannot be racist towards whites. While this is not the norm, it is patently untrue. I do not like hypocrites.
Fifth: JESUS CHRIST WHY DID EVERYONE GET FIRED HOLY SHIT
One, from what I understand, the male developer who was fired was on borrowed time with his employer.
Two, a professional conference is not the fucking place for dick jokes and contributes to a hostile environment for women.
Three, how is she a hypocrite? Venue counts. As for her views on race, we've discussed that viewpoint - it's not crazy to say that racism = prejudice + power.
Four, all the people trying to say that her Twitter was professional because she listed her position on it need to eat a large bag of dicks.
I watched my first pet get euthanized. It was a heartwrenching moment that is still sort of painful to remember, but I'd say it was a good thing to learn from as a child.
Also when I was diagnosed with all of the shit I have when I was 14 I had a choking phobia and couldn't swallow pills! So I've been unmedicated since my diagnosis 11 years ago.
(I no longer have the phobia)
I couldn't swallow pills at all until I had my tonsils yanked out.

Sonic fans can be the worst
But they can also be the best. Today they are the best.
They ported the daytime levels from Sonic Unleashed into the Generations engine, creating a new distilled version of the good stuff from Unleashed minus the Werehog beat em up levels and the bullshit token unlock next level stuff.
The result is a game that can be beat in 30 minutes, which really explains how much fluff and padding Unleashed had.

I've been lucky (?) in that most of my pets have died by wandering off into the mountains at old age. Or young age and being eaten by coyotes.
So I haven't had a lot of acute "this pet has died" moments, just a lot of "I haven't seen the cat in a few days" "Hmm, now it's been a week" "ok, he's definitely dead now."

Game tip or advanced sex position?

I somehow completely mistypes "gym" and didn't notice.
vaginpires
But you can't just hold down spacebar then.
from the D flows love and caring
as well as a bunch of different kinda gross fluids that I don't know why people like tasting but I ain't complaining
I felt like I was flying a bus with a pair of reins when I got into a Reaver.
no you use ctrl to descend upwards
Like vampires, there are legends of vaginae with rows of teeth.

Use oil erry day.
...huh. Interesting.
like, fun fact, planetside devs
when flying anything VTOL, people have generally found that when landing it is a benefit to be able to see the ground
also, to have a throttle that isn't a toggle with the label JUMP/SLAM
Fuckin' management.

some people are cowardly so maybe
I think so.
It's weird because that is probably a good time to teach them about the futility and ultimate pointlessness of existence.
A great teaching moment.

No, her employer caved to terrorism. Pure and simple.

look this is an outrage
dick jokes cannot be contained
they cannot be controlled
they cannot be caged!
