... it ISN'T?!
Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!
- Thread starter strawman
- Start date
Intellicast FTW.
Hey, the cute girl who was in the same class last semester is online, I think I'll say hi to her-
Dammit why can't I force myself to talk to her!? This feels like high school again. If she wasn't willing to talk to you she wouldn't have friended you David, get over it and do something.
Update: Conversation started! Now the majority of my brain's social functions are devoted to not saying something creepy.

Tried a new recipe today. I failed spectacularly somehow, even though I followed the recipe to the letter. The taste was perfect, but the dish had the consistency of soup (it was supposed to be a pie). I think I know what the problem was and how to correct it for next time.
That's only part of my whine. The real part is when people try it, acknowledge that it didn't turn out correctly, then try to give me annoying platitudes. "Oh, well, the important part is that you tried!" or "I just admire you for how brave it was to try a new recipe in the first place!"
Shut the fuck up. I'm not an idiot, and you all know how well I can cook. I may not be a chef in a restaurant, but I know my way around a kitchen. I don't need to be patted on the head like a moron who can't make cold cereal and toast. And "brave"? Really? It's a recipe, for crying out loud. I didn't defuse a bomb. When I'm annoyed something new didn't turn out, just accept it. Don't pretend like it was some glorious and noble fight. Don't act like everything is perfectly dandy.[DOUBLEPOST=1341388678][/DOUBLEPOST]And while I'm at it, stop smacking your lips and sucking through your teeth, you dipshit. I know you weren't raised by wolves, though sometimes you are dumb enough that I can see how people would make that mistake.

I swear to God, I know Restless Leg Syndrome sounds like the stupidest thing in the world, but I am so close to going to the doctor about it. I'm up right now, as I often am, walking around and stretching and massaging my calves just so I can try and go back to sleep. I'm tired to losing sleep to this! I stretch before bed and get lots of potassium. The purpose of my exercise is partly to try and stop this. But it's been going on ever since high school. 
I just want to sleep through the night.

This. I develop a lesser opinion of people when they do the same stupid shit as my rats.
My own whining:
A guy at work yawns excessively. It's annoying. One yawn was even interrupted by another yawn and that spurned me to time the seconds between yawns.
Set 1:
yawn 1
25 seconds
yawn 2
80 seconds
yawn 3
30 seconds
yawn 4
22 seconds
yawn 5
He got up then, breaking the data, but he came back and started yawning again, so I have a longer sequence.
Set 2:
yawn 1
25 seconds
yawn 2
21 seconds
yawn 3 (that's 3 in a minute)
35 seconds
yawn 4
41 seconds
yawn 5
25 seconds
yawn 6
41 seconds
yawn 7
31 seconds
yawn 8
Eight yawns in three and a half minutes for the second data set. Annoying as that is to listen to, as I thought about it I started to wonder if he needs to see a doctor, because there's gotta be something wrong with his respiration. That, or someone will come in and be like "I yawn that much and I'm the picture of health."
I guess when I say that I eat when I'm fatigued, what I'm describing is that if I only sleep for like 4-5 hours in a night then I'll make myself a huge breakfast and a huge lunch and snack all day. Whereas if I sleep a full 8-9 hours I'll go til mid-afternoon before realizing "hey I haven't eaten anything in like 18 hours."
Yup, that.
No, but I'm not so sure it's something with his respiration. Yawning is triggered by a lot of different stimuli. He could just be very tired or bored, of course, but it's often a symptom of approaching a burn-out, too. How's he doing at work? Job too easy or hard for him, perhaps?
It's also one of the most "obvious" side-effects of some anti-depressants. I know I had a few weeks when I started on them that I was yawning the whole time, while I wasn't actually tired.
Did not know that. Guess it's nothing to worry about then.
He could have a severe infection of his eardrums, which can lead to deafness and quite a lot of pain, too
Man, I'm enough of a hypochondriac to know this without looking it up, imagine what stories I could spin if I actually took the efoort to go to webmd or whatever...I bet I can convince you he has some form of cancer somewhere

I woke up with this in my head. Probably because I was dreaming about overcoming tyrannical royalty. (a fine 4th of July dream if ever there was one)
My yawning is linked to my asthma. It may indicate I'm having a mild asthma attack.
Edit: and sighing. The sighing even more so, now that I think about it.

Maybe he has a tic that makes him yawn.
The latter.

I am bummed. Lotus Clan's 24/7 Hoodoo TF2 server is now apparently a 24/7 doomsday server. And that was the last (possibly only) 24/7 Hoodoo server with bots in existence.
Also, IMO, there needs to be another medieval mode map with a much larger scope than Degroot keep. Something the size of MountainLab, for instance.

It is. It's the most minor little change, but the fact that I didn't stand up for it more (because I wanted to spare someone's feelings) makes me feel like such a pushover. The one occasion I'm allowed to be the tiniest bit demanding and I couldn't open my mouth. I actually am laughing a little already, and not even in a bitter way. It just takes all kinds, I guess.I hope this isn't wedding related.
You won't be able to please everybody for your wedding. Seriously... just worry about pleasing yourself and your man... it's about YOU TWO anyways. Anyone who doesn't respect your wishes can go fly a kite... or something.

This man speaks the truth, Cajungal ... It's your big day, yours and your man's.
Cajungal - This is cliche, but very true - the only thing that matters at the end of your wedding day is that you are married to the person who you love more than there are stars in the sky. Those little details aren't going to matter in the end.
