Nyquil? Don't even think of touching that shit, unless you love that sick sensation.

Alka Seltzer cold medicine does even better without any of that sensation. Use the daytime for staying awake, and use the nighttime med for knocking yourself out to dreamland.

It grills my cheese when someone purposely misgenders the other person during an argument or because they don't like the other person. Like wow you totally won by being the bigger asshat. Congratulations.

I have difficulty even seeing how that's insulting. I mean, if you're trans, then yeah, getting called by the wrong gender could be hurtful, but otherwise, like for me, I just don't get it.

You realize of course I was talking about misgendering a transperson, yes?

In example: I was watching an argument and the other person was a transperson and the opposing person kept calling said transperson an 'it' and said they didn't want to bother using the proper pronouns.

Either way, though, it's still a stupid tactic to use against someone even if they're cis.

Yeah, I kinda figured, like I said. If one is trans, then misgendering is definitely nasty. No offense intended.

It's going to be my birthday tomorrow and I'm already depressed. I insisted that there shouldn't be a party but some friends are coming over anyway. I'm propably going to mess it up and ruin the day for everyone.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

The tiny extra fold they put on the end of Always Night towels. It never sticks down properly.

Had to skip work because a stomach virus hit me at 1:00 AM.

Thankfully, my immune system prevented the worst of it. I basically woke up with a mixture of nausea, indigestion, and dizziness that faded in and out randomly. I spent a few hours moaning and rolling around until I could fall asleep for 8 hours. I avoided any vomiting or falling over.

I probably got an easy time because this same virus was infecting our entire house cast and the Resident Evil cast during HHN, and I was miraculously one of the very few to not get hit by it.

LOL usually when stomach viruses and such go around at work or school when I was going, I never got sick... now when there was NOTHING going around, very occasionally I'd get the mystery pukies.

Pretty minor annoyance but my puppy keeps keyboard and mouse blocking me. It's cute but I have accidentally clicked on things cause she hit my mouse hand.

This isn't my really my gripe, but something a friend is going through really pisses me off. My friend Jacob spent his life savings to see a girl he's liked for a while in Washington. Now, before you go saying "he should have known better", he did know better, but he thought it would change things between them. (I could say "I told you so", I'm not going to). While he's there, he gets dumped. When he gets back, his boss claims that because he didn't give the proper notification about his absence (spoiler: HIS BOSS IS A DIRTY LIAR) he's fired. So he's broke, unemployed, and heartbroken. I'm planning to stay over at his house tonight to provide a listening ear and second player for whatever new game he's (somewhat) excited about. I also got a Fluttershy plush (he's a brony) because he needs a little kindness in his life.

Why do so many people want to watch football on Campus? I swear, there's two TVs in the cafeteria, they don't need to be tuned to the same game.

HOW DARE YOU QUESTION THE SACRED AMERICAN SPORT OF FOOTBALL YOU COMMIE.

I imagine that's the answer to your question.
