Something I find annoying are those on a forum who basically announce how clever they think they are. People who are actually clever have others saying how clever they are for them.

Or you can call it narcissism.

Doesn't it have to do to with a severe sense of inferiority? I am guilty of it myself! Mostly, i am saying this about myself due to a feeling of insecurity that makes it impossible for me to think of one good characteristic.

I apologize, if it bothers you

Tbh I don't recall reading any of your posts. But I was mostly referring to smugness. Which only annoys me figuratively. Deep down I'm apathetic when it comes to such things.

I understand! Thank you for the clarification

Getting ever closer to finishing the last semester of my college course as well as taking the last exam to get my computer certification too.

Indeed, good to hear! May I ask what kind of surgery? If you don't want to share, that's okay of course.

Thanks everybody :heart: I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed. I was very anxious about it, but it went well fortunately.

Damn, that is a lot at once. Hope you feel better soon and can eat nachos again :wink:

Remember when I had surgery on my stomach one time, could not eat solid food for a long time, just licked the chips and threw the rest away when I was desperate :lol:

I felt like a sad panda but it was tasty though 8)

I had that done as well. Follow the post-op instructions and you'll be eating nachos in no time.
Congrats on getting through it!

I suspect i will be banned soon.
That's what's on my mind :(

This is a thing that happens on internet forums...very rapidly...to me.
I was raised to understand that freedom of speech was a cornerstone of real civilization, I don't yield on it nor do I abuse it. But forums don't often work that way,the view tends to be "MINE!MY WAY" and there's often virtually no regard at all for any sense of higher duty to the defense of something so simple and so important. I do not now nor have I ever stepped in line very well. Hope I'm wrong.

People once fought and died very real deaths in defense of that right, and to be sure there were business establishments then that could have said "My place my rules! get out!" but they wouldn't have dared, it was disrespectful to the dead, and it sent a message they did not want to send.

This is a thing I have wanted to say for a while, maybe like ...since things got weird online in the nineties "for a while". One day it was free, anonymous and things were finally ok...except for a few trolls...the next day it just went poof.

That...is what's on my mind. hope this post sticks around...me too.

I need to put better controls on myself when it comes to the few people who get under my skin.

Merely applying for jobs online. Stress, pressure, strain

I am so emotionally fragile and drained. Useless and worthless

Makes me want to gorge

Yesterday I returned the phone call of the job that called me on Tuesday

She told me she was at a meeting and would phone me later in the afternoon

The phone did not indicate any incoming phone calls yesterday

Good thing I didn't just waste time sitting next to the phone

And Tuesday she set a phone interview appointment and phoned over forty minutes late


Felt like gorging yesterday


Feel that way every day but do not indulge every day


But lately it has been like :skull: wtf :?:



35 years old

Nothing matters


What's so bad about being :D fat :?:


Discrimination, inconvenience, disease

So what?

Crossdressing causes discrimination and inconvenience, :D and I have still done it over fifteen years



Disease?


Nobody has perfect health

Some 18 year olds enlist in the military. Active duty. Deployed to Afghanistan. Infantry 0311. Combat engineer 1371. Marines, Army. In Garrison. Dress blues. E4. Sleep in foxholes. Improvised explosive devices physically injure some 18 year olds. VA benefits. Dishonorable discharge. Fort Leavenworth. Uniform Code of Military Justice. Live in the barracks. 24/7. Crowded. (It sounds like it is easy to get contagious diseases. . Psychological stress, )Rarely base. Some locations do not have good public transportation. Some locations are in the middle of nowhere.

So I am 35 and have done little (, maybe nothing) that contributes positively to the solar system

:roll:


Feel ashamed for being a scuzzy civilian

MEPS disqualifiers

Autistic, trans, clinical depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, amenorrhea

MEPS gives some waivers. But not everyone gets one. And waivers take one year

Maybe I would feel more justified if I was in the military

"Life" going nowhere

Brain out of serotonin or dopamine (it appears that)

:roll:


No potential

Sensory nightmare
