What first world problem did you have today?

[Mixolydian]

^That one's $60 here. If it's comfortable, it'd be worth it, but I just want to screws in my chair to stop poking me before dumping the chair in a year or two.

Edit: And I went full retard by pouring rum into one glass and pouring from the glass into another glass so I wouldn't have to open the bottle again. Lost a few drops of my 90 proof rum transferring between glasses. Sigh,

Looks like my drunk ass is very interested in Sichuan hot pot. And drunk googling myself: I have one of the most common names out there. Many matches within my city alone. What the hell. In contrast, my fake Craigslist name only has a quarter or less as many matches on the Facebook.

How does it feel to be so generic?

 

[Imp]

^12 hours later? Like shit. One eye is blurry, bit out of it, and I want to hurl but that wouldn't do any good considering that my stomach was empty up until half an hour ago.

And I think I fixed my chair using two pairs of pants I haven't worn in over a year... Like I should have tried that before I blew $20.

I'm watching the Seahawks game because I have Jimmy Graham on my fantasy roster. I thought I had him starting but he's actually on my bench so I'm watching this game for no reason.

I feel moderately good today

My fwp is I never considered how common, or not my fake name was. I feel stupid not picking something more generic :^/

 

[Imp]

^I used a different phonetic spelling of my real last name that is actually common and a very generic, boring male first name that should be more common than my actual first name. Seriously, it's like 5 Facebook pages of search results versus 1.5 pages. Dafuq?

Other problem is that Rosetta Stone is on sale again and I want to start learning the German. I have the money but do I want to blow the money...

The cover of "Going the Distance" used in the Geico commercial hurts my brain.

November is fading, and I still haven't turned on my heat. I just fully closed my windows today(50mph winds). I want to use my wool blanket, but I like to be cold before I pull it out for the first time. Nothing better than shivering in bed, and grabbing the heavy wool blanket. It's like heaven. The way things are going, it's gonna be sheets only this year. Fuck climate change... :^(

All day I been watching cats on youtube and now feel quite lonely.

I think I remember you can't have a kitty cause someone's allergic? You should try to score a volunteer position at the local shelter. You'll get to play with kitties, and it's something you can pad a resume with.

Are those hairless cats ok for people with allergies? I've only had cats a total of three days in my life, but they are fun to play with.

I've read they're worse. It's the skin dander that causes the allergic reaction, and it spreads quicker with furless cats.

Almost pissed my pants just now when Hardware Monitor was showing my CPU fan at 0 RPM -- but the core temperatures were normal. Restarted HWMon a few times, showing normal again.

Think I'm pushing 7 years on my current CPU, mobo, 2 sticks of ram, PSU, and one HDD. Really not interested in getting anything new right now, but I do plan to run it into the ground...

I need to build a new computer. Mine's 10 years old, and getting unreliable. The mb has a couple bulging caps, and it doesn't always boot up or shutdown right. I could fix it, but it isn't really worth it for something that old. I also have a brand new abit mb I could use(bought it, but never used it), but then I'd be going through all the effort of building a new computer, but getting an old computer for the trouble.

 

[shortylickens]

HOLY FUCK YUR RIGHT!

I need to go volunteer with the kitties!!

Why the crap have I never thought of this?

Looks like my drunk ass is very interested in Sichuan hot pot.

I bet it's probably pretty good in the States. I was in the Sichuan province in China once and we went to a local hot pot place. The variety of the cuts of meat that we were supposed to dunk into the oil just looked so unappealing. I'm not sure what body parts they were so it totally ruined the experience. That was years ago, but I'd try it again somewhere in Chinatown in NYC.

 

[Charmonium]

I bowled like s*** tonight. It wasn't so bad I needed them to put up the gutter guards but it was bad. The only way I could have choked more was if someone had tried to strangle me.

 

[Svnla]

I need to go to the laundromat so I could use the large machine to wash all of the big stuffs (heavy blankets, coats, jackets, etc.) and get ready for winter but I was being lazy. Will have to do it later. Why didn't I win the Powerball ($300 million) so I don't have to do peasant work...whaaaaaaaa...

I had never broken 100 until I bowled 180. Now I can never bowl again.

Svnla - Do you not have a washer or is it too small for a blanket?

I don't have the big one as the one at the laundromat. The big one (front load) could take my comforter, heavy blanket, jackets, etc...all for one load. And it will cost $7 for each wash.

Speaking of bowling, I haven't play a game since high school. <awe>

Saw it on TV recently and it looks amazing. Google says there are tons of local places. Not sure if I trust myself to cook my own food -- last time I went to Korean BBQ, I was on a toilet within a couple hours.

Edit: And I've been watching Rizzoli & Isles for years. I think I just realized that they film everything in California -- like NCIS.

I just found out there's a spaghetti dinner I have to go to tonight (ticket already paid, some kind of fund raiser) and really don't feel like going. I finished my last night shift this morning, it's blowing snow outside, I really was not planing on going out.

 

[Ns1]

I bought $120 worth of meat that I now have to eat.

 

[Svnla]

I am in a class (required for CPE) right now and it is freaking boring.

 

[Imp]

The big chicken Shawarma wrap had a chunk of onion in it that I ate separately and it burned my mouth. I ate the wrap with a knife and fork...

And I just realized that mainstream news now enjoys using the bipolar approach: extremely partisan stories/positions from both ends in the name of "fair and balanced."
