So uh, it turns out that the creature that crawled into my ear and tried to possess me was a FLY and the reason I was in such brain-piercing, butt-numbing agony was because the little bastard was flouncing around ON MY EAR DRUM. Euughhhh. I do not know how, I do not know why. I really don't want to know.

The only thing I do know is that it cost me $680 to have it removed. 'Merica! :wizard:

Holy S! 680 bucks for that? Does that effect your moving out plans? If not, then move to Norway and get free health care. 

 

OT - Can anyone confirm if this is true, because it pisses me off. Link follows.

:blink: That's crazy!

After this horror story, I think I might start wearing ear-plugs to bed. I'm sure I heard a story a while back about a boy who had a spider living in his ear for ages. Ugh.

It does, but they were already pretty heavily hampered, so... :')

I wish I could move to Norway. Or... anywhere. :lol:

Welp, nothing like a daily dose of world vomit.

Eugh, it was the worst, most bizarre thing! And I'm with you. Ear plugs (or at least headphones!) to bed from now on.

A certain racist poster seems to have made an alt in order to blow his own horn about said racist beliefs.

Noticed yesterday. Gave themselves away to me when they visited my profile page--he liked to do that two to three times a day. Was wondering when the posting would start.

Though i would like to talk about Bioware and social justice, but with reasonable people.

I did suggest to some of those "SJW" topic starters to make one about Mass Effect Andromeda and PC culture, but they didn't do so, which is a shame. 

Even the term PC is very loaded. There is absolutely no way of discussing this topic without it devolving into a screaming match and being locked after a few pages.

I loathe having to share a cart with some people at work. Person I shared a cart with today made us pack up at 7:00 we don't get off until 7:30 and the earliest we are allowed to be downstairs unpacking is 7:23. I tried to tell them this and they would not listen to me and tossed my clean towel I was going to use to touch up my area and kill time with. I am going to be pretty ticked if I end up getting in trouble because of someone I'm sharing a cart with is being lazy.

I'm quite certain exactly this happened to me this morning. I was dozing as per usual, but slightly before my alarm went off, I had this insane sensation of frantic movement and deafening scratching/popping in my ear.

 

I shot out of bed and ran around in a circle smacking myself while my better half looked on in confusion. It stopped, started up again, then stopped again, and I've been good. Been a few hours. Probably do a walk-in thing later, but I'm not looking forward to that. Hopefully whatever it was simply found its way back out - as opposed to dying in there or something.

 

*shudder*

I told myself I was going to keep working full-time right up until school starts, but I think I'm going to start cutting back a couple weeks in advance. I'm working all week and every other weekend and trying to deep clean my apartment and throw out/donate/sell as much junk as possible, and if I want to do all that and visit family before school starts, I've got to take some time off work.

It's going to feel awesome to have time to do things, lmao.

:lol: Ack, yes, that certainly sounds like what I went through! Only maybe you got it out before it crept too far? Eugh! Either way, I sympathize.

The trials facing this group are somehow simultaneously regrettable and slightly hilarious.  :lol:

 

Gomez...and Servo, I'm so sorry about bugs in your ears. I don't actually it's funny, I just think you two are. :P

 

I've had it happen with me once, with some kind of little gnat. It was an extremely uncomfortable experience. I can't imagine what it would be like with an actual fly. Yuck.

That sounds miserable Steel. I'm a big wimp about any kind of intemperate weather, the consequence of living in such a generally moderate area. So, when it does get really hot, I'm beyond consoling. I once had to ride my bike in the extreme heat while I also had a stomach ache. The sensation was so memorably unpleasant I wrote a poem later about how sickening it was.

My vent for today is about Han Shot First not being around anymore. I completely understand, of course, but it looks like he might be gone for good. :(

All y'all got these problems and I'm just here like "it would be nice if I could move my Xbox onto the nicer TV" and "sure wish it wasn't so hot out on the pool deck while I'm lifeguarding" or "now that I have money and stuff to do, its too bad I don't have a girlfriend to do that with"

 

Lol. Well, for that to happen, you'll have to be proactive. You cannot count on women to get the job done, believe me LMAO. It used to be my issue in high school a few years ago. I was shy and socially awkward. But then, I came to realize that girls ( for a lot of obvious societal reasons ) for the big majority of them don't hit on men. Even when they think you are handsome or are attracted to you. They tease, they give you some compliments, they send signals, talk about you behind your back with their friends, but nope, they aren't going to be straightforward, asking you for a date like we guys do when we are interested. She will be hoping for you to do it yourself, which I didn't several times and I paid a terrible price. So very often if you are blind to their signals or don't react quickly enough, it's very likely that it will end up nowhere lol. 

 

Of course there are girls like that, that don't hesitate to hit on men, but they are truly a small minority, in 2016.  Despite the appareances, women are far more insecure than men. So it's quite dumb to expect them to do the first step will all the baggages they have. So I'm really sorry for the guys alone in the world who are hoping that by just being nice to them, something will happen just like that and one day they will be rewarded for that, and they will be finally noticed for who they are even if they hardly talk to them, or talk to them in an awkward and bland way. ( well it can happen if you are lucky )  It just doesn't work that way most of time. That's the harsh reality. 

 

That's why being shy and socially awkward is a real liability, unless you are super handsome. Those who are saying that it's not true are lying, have no idea what they are talking about or are in denial. For something to happen, most of time, the guy has to be bold and has to be able to take the initiative. if someone is shy and socially awkward or apathetic, he has to fight against his nature. That's what I did in the past. Everything has changed for me since then. 

 

A certain racist poster seems to have made an alt in order to blow his own horn about said racist beliefs.

 

I'd personally ask N7 Phantom what he lived, what happened to him, where he lives to hold such opinions. I'd be curious to know what shaped so much what he thinks. 

 

But then he is hardly rational, the same for his answers, he doesn't seem to rely on real life facts, just things of the past that he read on suspicious books. o in then end, i'm not really interested. I just wonder if get outside very often, if he sees with his eyes the world around him or if he just keeps reading things on internet and in books. When I go outside myself, it's just pretty much impossible to not notice that the world has changed. ( Though I realize that all places are not the same, not all places are tolerant, which why I wonder where he lives )

I'm not sure that someone joking about not having a girlfriend at present needs a pep talk about about being proactive, or women explained to them.

Try not to mention names. It's gotten this group in trouble previously. Most people in the group will know who you're referring to if you skirt around it.

Wait, what? Srsly? What happened? Hope he comes back, he is one of the better posters floating around this place.

 

@Lynroy, hey you're a pirate now, that's awesome! :D

I hope I'm wrong, but his current signature has the tone of a permanent goodbye, and he hasn't posted in about a week. Maybe he'll come back when there's something to discuss, after the next big reveal or after Andromeda comes out...which would still be a long time.
