― the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 23 October 2003 00:15 (twenty-two years ago)

why would you have to flirt if you were willing to pay?

― gaz (gaz), Thursday, 23 October 2003 00:16 (twenty-two years ago)

sorry to be a prick but I really hope you apologized to Luna for the way you acted on her thread. I wish you the best of luck, but it'd be a good idea to be karma's bitch a little less.

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 00:20 (twenty-two years ago)

10. exhausting the amount of people on this planet who will bother to put up with me

With most people, it's a case of "you get back what you give". If you're a sweet and welcoming person overall, you'll get sweet people welcoming you right back. 'Tis as simple as that. I know that in my own life, it is very easy to be kind to people who've been kind to me in return, and on the flip side it's just as easy to be a bitch to people who haven't exactly treated me well or made me feel welcome (*ahem*). I do realize this is not a particularly Christian thing to do, but I do try to be nice to as many people as possible without leaving myself open to be (figuratively) run over by a semi again.

I can totally relate to # 4, btw.

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Thursday, 23 October 2003 00:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Bee joke as half-inched off QI:

So there's these bee-keepers talking about the population density of their hives and the morality thereof:

Beekeeper #1: I've got ten thousnad bees in five hives

(all nod approvingly)

Beekeeper #2: I've got twenty thousand bees in fifteen hives

(all nod approvingly)

Beekeeper #3: I've got a million bees

(pregnant pause)

Beekeeper #3: In one hive

(all look aghast)

Beekeeper #3: Fuck 'em, they're only bees.

Hey Jess, dig the irony of a drunk guy apologizing for what he said when he was sober. Anyhow I don't want you die and all that. I'd just like you to be able to live your cool-ass hipster life without shitting on other people. Color me maudlin or whatever but I just wish you were nicer to those around you here on ILX. Fuck, ummm....goddamnit this is making me feel as incoherent and drunk-ass good intentioned or whatever as a circa 92 Eddie Vedder...anyhow how just chill ok? Clearly people here would still like you and care about you whether or not you shitted on other people's parades and all that. God I'm tired. anyhow (god do i Love the word anyhow) take it easy, take a walk or whatever - you're probably sleeping as I write this so you won't feel as bummed when you read this haha what a little emo fuck I must be. I just think if you were cool, relaxed, and kind - and that's the important word - KIND to those around you you'd see things turning around a wee bit. I dunno. fuck it, I walked along way to get to a computer to apologize re: how harsh I was. sorry.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 23 October 2003 06:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Hello, Jess's hangover, this is Kate's hangover, nice to see you again.

― kate (kate), Thursday, 23 October 2003 10:41 (twenty-two years ago)

also i feel bad now because tom thanked me for not starting a rash of weepy threads when i broke up with nancy and this might count in that direction. (i really did mean it to be [mostly] a joke.)

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 10:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha no it doesn't count as that at all! You can start as many threads about bee horror as you like (even though they are friends of man).

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Thursday, 23 October 2003 11:00 (twenty-two years ago)

i don't even know where the bee thing came from!! perhaps it is some subconscious childhood horror i have suppressed until the deamon drink coaxed it out of me.

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 11:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Steer fucking clear of gin, man. "Mother's ruin" and all that. I've seen well-balanced grown-men reduced to gibbering, sobbing wrecks when drinking gin. The most maudlin of drinks by far.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 23 October 2003 11:45 (twenty-two years ago)

it's not my normal drink by far, but it was all that was in the house last night. (except for a small bottle of suspicious looking green liquid with an inscrutable foriegn typeface. it looked a bit like the stuff barbers keep their combs in.) after a while i was mixing it with all sorts of odd things (lemonade, etc.) and then simply drinking it straight from a plastic cup. (it's summer 2002 all over again.)

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 11:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I love gin, it makes me feel sexy!

well before the ruin I guess.

it made me feel as if i should be wearing a fedora.

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:00 (twenty-two years ago)

the fact that i was in my underpants and drinking it out of a big gulp cup notwithstanding.

― mohammed abba (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Gin is scientifically proven to make people randy (I mean, ask Hogarth, after all (well, except for the him being dead bit)) so drinking it when yer bummed and broken-hearted and wanting to hump furniture cause there's no shag-buddies around is a really, really, really bad idea.

― kate (kate), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Most alcoholic drinks do that Kate surely!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Gin moreso than any other. I don't know why. (Thank goodness HSA hasn't figured this out yet.)

What about bee gin?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I hate gin, but I find that red wine encompasses a whole spectrum of emotions. tears, feeling amorous, happiness, giggly drunk etc etc

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:06 (twenty-two years ago)

a short list:

1. I'll get fired from my job because I'm stupid

3. no one will love me
4. I'll die alone (actually, I flip flop on whether or not this actually bothers me. Right now it does)
5. my dad won't get any better

Until I got to the bottom there, I thought you were quoting Marcello! I was starting to get all worried about him!

― kate (kate), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Me too! (thought it was Marcello)

Oh, and nickalicious, I had freakin' vericose veins when I was 14?! Welcome to my world.

I am all for gin. Yum. But gin & tonics strike me as summer drinks, so I'll need to move on I suppose.

Am I allowed on this thread? I do talk about cats, but I swear to god I'm a paranoid freak. I worry CONSTANTLY. I stress out so much that I'm surely going to develope Rodney Dangerfield eyes. And sometimes my forehead needs ironing (with my hands, though).

I like gin a lot but get too wasted on it. Red wine makes me randy. I would've have LOVED to get drunk (i almost typed horny) last night but this damn state evaluation today prevented that. Tonight, then, look for amusing posts!

my worries:

1. I won't get my certification this year and all the work and suffering I've put into this job will be for naught.
2. One day I will be so far gone that suicide will seem the only option, and that I will succeed that time. (I've always feared this but the week's event have made this terrifying for me.)
3. my car dying

well these are all I think of to really worry about today.

I guess that's good.

― A Girl Named Sam (thatgirl), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Sam, Aren't they desperate for good public school teachers? It seems like if you do a decent job, you should have nothing to worry about, right?

I'm in too good a mood today to be horribly worried (whoo hoo! Chicago!) but here's a list of a few hot worry topics in my head:

* Anxiety about giving notice at my job, even though I can't stand my boss
* Worrying about getting a new job
* Worrying about being buried in debt as much as my mom is by the time I'm her age
* Worrying about my family as both my sisters and my mom and dad all have problems with depression
* Will I ever have a job I LIKE?
* Should I or should I not ever have babies and if so when and how and oh my god...
* etc.

― Sarah MCLusky (coco), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Worries:

1) My sleep apnea. I stop breathing in my sleep. This is fuct.
2) I won't complete even half of my current "projects" by the summer of next year.
3) Christian fundamentalists wreck the U.S. beyond repair.
4) North Korea/China/Taiwan foreign policy disaster.
5) I might have given up on a relationship with a girl that could have possibly been the 'one'.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Also, spiders.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:19 (twenty-two years ago)

God people are talking about actual worries. Well in that case -

- I'm a bit worried about my health and lack of exercise. I'm about to get married and will be having kids in the next few years and I don't want their Dad to fall down dead when they're little cos he scoffed too many pies. (My Dad had a heart attack when I was 7 and it was terrifying though thank goodness he survived). Don't know how to find the self-discipline to break my cycle of idleness though.

- Job stuff which I can't talk about here.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Sarah check dubya's No Child Left Behind Act. It leaves no room for new and inexpereienced teachers to have a learning curve. A couple of things worry me: I failed my review last year and worry about failing it again. I won't get another chance, at least not here, and would have to start the whole process over again in another city. Our school could be deemed low-performing by the state next year and everyone in the building will be fired. Since I'm not already certified my chances of getting a job in another school in that situation would be nil to nada. (if that's confusing, trust me it is to me too. The state board of certification meets *after* we have to sign contracts for the next year so I'm pretty much bound to this same school for another year.)

― A Girl Named Sam (thatgirl), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:22 (twenty-two years ago)

My worries:

1) Hoping I can find a job that won't put me to sleep (scratch that: ANY damn job, if you please);
2) Hoping my mum stays stable for the forseeable future (knock wood);
3) That I'll continue to be loved for who I am;

Sometimes when I go to the bathroom at work there will be some older guy standing at the urinal. I'll take care of my business, wash my hands, and leave--and he'll still be there. So I'm worried that when I get older it's gonna take me forever to piss.

Mainly this week I have been worried/racking my brain, as a result of getting smiled at by a pretty girl last week, like did I glare? does she fancy me or something? what should I do about this? If I don't do anything, then that's it, I'll never do anything ever. I'm completely and utterly neurotic, I can turn a good thing into hours of angst and misery.

the "cool-ass hipster line" was a tad sarcastic, Jess.

ugh. worries hurmm....promo CDs arriving in time to be reviewed, 2001 might have been the best year of my life, that I used to be idealistic but now I'm just naive, that I'm never going to be face-to-face with person I'd most like to spend time with since they live on the other side of the planet, that I'm not ever gonna be able to just "date" somebody, that I used to be romantic but now I'm just naive, that something really horrible is gonna happen right after my health insurance runs out in less than a month, that this is as healthy as I'll ever be, that I'll eventually lose the hearing in the one ear I can hear out of (which would possibly cause me to kill myself since the musical expression of emotion is sometimes all that's keeping me happy), that you can never know how another person really feels or how they are really perceiving you - and that trust is foolish.

But I know that some of the things I've accomplished would make the 8th grade version of me - who failed classes cuz he didn't want to do homework and just wanted to listen to music - would be really proud of some of the stuff I've accomplished. That he'd say "you broke up with someone after two years and yer worried you'll never care about someone so purely again?! Awesome, that I means I actually get to have a girlfriend someday!" He'd love the fact that if I say I'm a music critic I'm not entirely playing make believe. Plus these album things really do a great job of either putting you in a good mood or reminding you that other people relate. Plus every once in a while out of nowhere I've met amazing people who I really connected with. There's no genuine reason to think it can't happen again.

Stephen Falken: Now, children, come on over here. I'm going to tell you a bedtime story. Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin. Once upon a time, there lived a magnificent race of animals that dominated the world through age after age. They ran, they swam, and they fought and they flew, until suddenly, quite recently, they disappeared. Nature just gave up and started again. We weren't even apes then. We were just these smart little rodents hiding in the rocks. And when we go, nature will start over. With the bees, probably.

I try not to worry about anything. At the moment I guess I'm just worried about people I care about dying before I've had a chance to stop being a lazy, solipsistic asshole and let them know I care.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I've never been stung myself but one time someone was trying to surprise me by jumping out and screaming and SOMEHOW got stung by a bee at the same time, turning their "HEY!" into a genuine bloodcurdling shriek like "HEEYYAAAAAOOOOOWWW!!!!" We weren't sure what had happened until we noticed the bee carcass.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:35 (twenty-two years ago)

And what's more, if you are scared of spiders then you will always, subconsciously, be on the look-out for spiders, and thus see more spiders than the people who are not afraid of spiders see.

This whole bee/worry/bee/bee/worry thing is actually kind of awesome.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, I'm worried that I'm not just a lazy, solipsistic asshole who doens't show he cares; I'm worried that I don't care.

kephm, it amuses me to no end that the business that apparently manufactures your fogger is located locally, and it amuses me even more when I can honestly say that I not only know where it would be located but that I've also driven in that area numerous times. It's supposed to be a ritzy neighborhood with a ritzy and exclusive zip code ("'09", which is a shortening of 78209, is connected locally with an attitude that is stuck up and condescending toward all but the richest and/or most powerful people).

General topics for all my worries:

School, work, family, health, happiness, loneliness, mental issues, insecurities, envy, personal self-satisfaction, critiquing, and issues related to life organization.

My current worries:

(there's a HUGE gap after #1 there...)
2. The effort of moving house soon, packing and unpacking thousands of books and tapes and CDs and records and comics.
3. A life devoid of affection, something I'm not so far from now, and it's perfectly tolerable for a while, but not indefinitely.
