Hope he comes back at some point, I really like him. Funny guy.

Iamtp: Who else is going to respond to all of the obscure references I make to awful tv shows and movies?

He'll be back. Probably just watching a Full House marathon.

The hell . . a co-worker confessed to me - we went out for a drink after work - he thinks our boss (head of our department) doesn't like me because he feels threatened by me O_o . . Because apparently I'm more knowledgeable, intelligent and honest/integer than him.

. . really . . threatened by ME ??

I have no aspirations towards his job what so ever, I don't like being in charge as long as I don't have to. Maybe in 10-20yrs but for now I just want to try out some different functions/jobs "hands" on.

I have one where I'm surrounded by paunchy men who are very conventionally unattractive, and they keep chanting this mantra: "men are the visual ones, so a hot chick will still want me even though I'm hideous."

Well, it usually helps if those unattractive guys have hundred dollar bills hanging out of their pockets. A large segment of the female population is very visually driven, they just see things differently than men.

Got invited out at 3AM today by my extroverted friend, constantly trying to get me to come out, Oh you are only going to the shop for a beer run? ok so only 1 hour out of my time, I am awake at 3AM i obviously have nothing else to do.

This then turns into spend an hour at one of his friends houses, i can cope with this its ok, getting stoned is always good when its free.

But when i decide to go home, which no one can change my mind, we get kicked out of his friends house they want to sleep. but they are going to someone elses house, i seriously do not want to go, so in my mind i am not going, they spend 15 minutes in the street at 4-5AM in the morning trying to convince me to go.

Like i said i am 100% convinced i am not going, so what does my genius friend suggest? "oh go on flip a coin for it"

Flip a fucking coin for it??? so let me get this straight, at this second in time, i have a 100% chance of walking home which is what i want to do, and your suggesting to me, to reduce my chances of doing what i want to do by 50% and you expect me to say "yeah ok"

how the hell is increasing your chances of doing something you don't want to do ever a logical reason to do it

Melancholia just went up on Netflix, so it looks like no homework will be accomplished in the next 2 hours.

I'm bracing myself for Antichrist part II, but there's no way it could be that horrible.

Edit: 3 minutes in, and I'm already annoyed that he explicitly shows the Breugel painting he ripped off for the movie... I think LVT is a filmmaker troll.

Edit 2: No matter what you do, do not watch this movie.

Just noticed that @Iamtp has retired.

Bye bye dude, I’ll miss your slightly exaggerated stories and random references. I hope you crack the tough nut that is coffee girl.

Hey @Richard...Just curios, as someone who has previously retired and subsequently been resurrected, what is the purpose of retirement? Not in the sense of trying to prevent yourself from spending too much time on this site, but in the sense of defining your departure. I tend to float in and out of here. Sometimes I spend a lot of time here and decide I should do other things so I don't surface for a month or two, but I have never retired. I'm just curious of your view on the matter.

I’m getting a brand new car and spending a sizable chunk of my savings because I can’t be bothered to visit individuals and attempt to ascertain the state of the n-th hand cars they’re selling. Not the best idea given the way the value of a car depreciates, but I don’t give a shit for the most part.

My apathy towards life and more specifically money is going to come back to bite me in the ass, I’m sure of it. I feel an implosion on the horizon.

Whatever implosion might be coming will be totally offset by the amount of time you get to spend doing the things you enjoy instead of spending 100 hours searching to save $20. It blows my mind the hours people burn to save a couple duckets.

I think that there should exist, huge keyboards with slightly padded keys, made for punching, so when some aggressively retarded or invincibly ignorant fool says something buttfuckedly stupid, you can type out the response just punching the keys as hard as you can. By the time you finish with the response, all the adrenaline is burned up and you got in a good workout. Whos with me on this.

That would be nice. I have a habit of doing this number and having to go through my day with no arms is getting a bit tiresome-
