On that topic: cars driving by my house at 80 kph (about 50 mph) while the speedlimit is 50 kph (about 31 mph). There's fuckin' kids playing outside, stupid fuck!

I'll put my hands up (is that the saying?) and admit that I am terrible for doing this. I can listen to a song I really love again and again for over an hour. I go through phases of play the same album over and over again and it's probably horribly annoying. Although my partner does the same thing, so I suppose we just either both annoy each other or get into the same music :lol:
I hate how I'm always picking up hot things with no oven gloves and then actually being surprised when I burn myself. It should be obvious that something that just came out of the oven is going to be hot.

When there is a new song i like (for instance Gangnam Style) i'll play for about two weeks as often as i can, whenever i can. Up to the point when it starts to annoy me and i can't listen to it anymore for about a year...

Combos are cylindrical snack foods. There are ones made of pretzel, cracker, and apparently, tortilla, but I've never had the tortilla kind. In the case of my favorite pizza ones, they are pretzels. A hollow cylindar of pretzel filled with pizza flavored filling.

Haha, that sounds familiar.
For high school (MAVO toen nog) i had to read 6 books. I read one...at least i thought so.
The whole day of the oral exam Dutch began fucked as i showed up in my trainingsuit (yes, it was the time for Aussie's) while all my classmates where in suits and dresses. I went like: What the hell are you all dressed up for? So they told me that we had to for the sollicitation-part of the exam.
Damn, i should have paid attention in class!
So that was shit to begin with.
Next up was the books i (should have) read. I read one, but they asked me all kinds of questions i didn't know the answers to. Apperently some pages near the end were missing. Just my luck...
I got an 5,2 (probably an F) that day (just because my sollicitation went well, despite me not being dressed properly).
After the theoretical exam i managed to spike up the grade to an 8 (B)...phew!

I hope you did something, because it makes you feel better (at least, that is the case with me). I wanted to pick up a book today, but I realised Dutch literature is probably the worst in the world so I will do it tomorrow.
And I definitely agree, I just read it for my English literature class and it is my favorite book. I love the madness, the characters, the (absence of) logic. My favorite characters are probably the Cheshire Cat, the White Rabbit, and ofcourse the Hookah-smoking Caterpiller. Through the looking Glass should also be great. I read it some years ago, but I guess I either could not appreciate it then or I did not understand enough of it, because I forgot most of the book. I will read it again one of these days though, because the genre is great. Do you happen to know any similair books? I searched for them, but I am afraid the story is exceptional.

Haha, you were a gabber? And I wish I only had to read 6... I have to read 22 for Dutch, 3 for English, 2 for History, and 2 for French. I read all 3 for English and I had to write essays about those. I already did that. Same for History. I still need to read 10 for Dutch and 3 for French however, and I won't make it.

Yep, guilty of gabbering. Of course no Aussie for me (just no money for it).
Are you serious! 22! Dutch! I can't even finish one in a month, let alone 22 in two years! On top of that, dutch literature is the most pretentious and pompueus crap ever written. And it's almost porn. Dutch movies too. They need saucy details about sexual acts to keep 'em slightly interresting i think.
My record for reading is one book (600 pages, in dutch, non-literature, which actually interrested me) in two months...
Yes i read that slow. It's a concentration-thing.
It's probably why i'm educated as low as i am; short concentration- and interrest-span.

Yeah, definitely agree here. I have read a lot of books in my life, but not once have I encountered an interesting Dutch literature book. I read two books of one of our most renowned writers so far, Gerard Reve, and I am just totally flabbergasted at how bad it is. No content, no tention, no plot, no nothing. It just just painful. And yes, I have only read one book that did not include sex so far.

I am pretty sure people don't consider you a suck-up for congratulating people who have achieved something. But what I wanted to say, I realised I also talk more and act more friendlier than I would dare in real life.

Well, yes.
The problem is the organization. The problems can easily be fixed but it's just organized horribly. Especially the trains. Well, it isn't as bad as it was a few years ago. I had only about 15 minutes delay, and the bus was on time, in Amsterdam that is. It's probably because no one cares about the north.

Or maybe it is a certain attitude or something. I doubt the trains in Russia are organised so much better than here, and our trains are not that much worse than the trains in Russia. Yet Russian trains ride through meters of snow, and our trains stop riding because of some leaves on the track.
Up here it was horrible. For some reason, there were no cars spreading salt on the roads (at least I didn't see one and ice was everywhere). I have to drive 10 minutes to school and it took me the double. In the 7 kilometers I drove I saw 2 cars slipping and one car upside down in the canal. At school, I heard at least 3 ambulances, and I live in a small village so that was something special... I also heard some buses were cancelled. But I guess there is a more snow on rural roads than in the city of Amsterdam, and the snow clouds were mainly in the North today I think, so I hope that is the problem instead of a lack of interest in the north...

This morning I was riding my bike to school and on the other side of the canal there was a car burning up. Not a little smoke from the motorhood or something, but the entire car was one huge fireball, and every now and then there was a little explosion. It had just happened because the firetrucks hadn't arrived yet. I doubt anyone died in the car however, because the owner of the car was standing behind it and cursing everything.

Anyone who gets into a viscious row in public, especially on public transport; it's a level of 'don't-give-a-fuck' that I can't identify with and it makes me very uncomfortable (can't tune it out and can't stop myself getting annoyed by it)
I do not understand this. Can you re-write it so that people from outside of UK can understand it?

I'm kinda the oposit. I love correct grammar and i can get somewhat irritated if someone uses incorrect punctuation. I use 'em all, as often as i can.
I also use el kind of brackets, when sidetracking within sidetracks: so i write something (along comes a sidetrack [which remindes me of something equally important] to get back on the first one) and continue along the main line of thought.

Fuck that guy. You're just fine. What happened?
I guess this guy who I was hanging out with tonight has some serious fucking issues (not that I don't). I guess his Dad, who was one of my hockey coaches growing up (I played hockey and golf with this guy when we were younger), was a pretty bad drunk as well as abusive.
So the whole night the people drinking at this house are kinda split off into two different rooms. At first I was in the bedroom, taking a bong rip, and then I left back out into the downstairs living room to hang out cause my tolerance is so low, one rip fucks me. In the living room things are chill and its just me and two other guys drinking beer and having a good time. In the other room there are still people taking bong rips and snorting nose candy as well. From out in the living room we can hear there conversation escalating like crazy. It went from a quiet chill room, when I was in there, until the point we can hear them swearing and shouting at each other. The one guy hanging out in the living room with me, gets up and finally goes, 'I'm going to go see what the fuck they're arguing about.' When he comes back out, he's like 'they're arguing about addiction.'
Now I'm sitting out in the living room and being my paranoid self, I assume that I'm the topic of conversation. I try to rationalize the fact that they wouldn't be talking about me, like I always do when I'm out: 'you're not that interesting; it's just your social anxiety getting to you; etc.' So for the next like hour and a half, I'm trying to convince myself that they're not talking about me and I actually do. I go outside for a cigarette with the two guys out in the living room and I only smoke half of it, cause its way too cold out and there is not nicotine rush worth standing outside in that temperature. When I get back to the basement, the door is open to the bedroom and they call me in.
Everyone was acting weird as soon as I walked into the room, but especially my one close friend at the house, as well as the guy whose Dad was a bad drunk. The guy whose dad was a drunk starts ranting to me about growing up and playing hockey and golf and he's talking about one time I beat him by like two strokes in a golf tournament and other times how I made hockey teams he had gotten cut from. He keeps bringing up all this trivial shit that I honestly can't even remember and the fact I can't remember it seems to be pissing him off more (he's like this shit was important to me and this guy doesn't even remember any of it). I instantly get the vibe that this guy is actually serious and appears to actually have been hurt over these facts; its as if he kinda considered me competition growing up and he's never gotten over the fact that I was a better athlete I guess (now who knows if his Dad was a psycho when it came to sports and stuff and was extremely hard on him). I try to make him feel a bit better by saying how I haven't played any sports in years and how I've completely lost any athletic ability that I ever had and how he could beat me now in sports or whatever. He's just on a fucking tear though, indirectly insulting me over and over and he apparently can't be comforted with any of the nice ways I'm trying to deal with this situation. Eventually he gets to the point where he's almost borderline openly insulting me, while thinly veiling his insults in his fucking stupidity that he thinks I can't understand. He's talking about how its so gratifying to see people taken off their pedestals and he starts making comments about alcoholics and willpower and mention depression and will power and shit. I eventually get fed up and just ask him: 'when is this extended metaphor going to end?' He just kinda smiles at me, cause he thinks I've just finally picked up on the fact he's been mocking me.
I'm not sure if that all sounds crazy or not, but the worst part is, that I was fucking questioning myself. Like I ended up leaving the house early and just drove home cause I couldn't deal with it. The whole time home, I'm wondering like what the fuck just happened? Did that actually transpire or are you just going completely insane. Like I was honestly thinking I was developing psychosis or some shit. I ended up texting my one friend who was still back at the house and asked him bluntly what the fuck happened in there and he confirmed all of my suspicions. Apparently the issue of substance abuse came up and the one asshole started ranting about his Dad and railing on people with addictions. My friend brings me up as a point of someone who struggles with addiction issues, but is still a good guy (and after a bit of coke) he starts talking to no end as well. I guess this is how I got brought up in the first place and I stayed a topic of conversation all night.
Needless to say I'm pretty fucking pissed at my friend. I wish he would of handled the situation differently: (a) either just not bring me up and if I do come up, say how I wouldn't appreciate being a topic of conversation, or (b) at least allow me to be part of the conversation so I could of defended myself to this dick. I honestly would of ridiculed him had I been there face to face with this guy. He's a fucking asshole who refers to himself only in the 3rd person, it wouldn't of been very tough.
Now I feel like whenever I go out, how many of my other paranoid suspicions are actually true? I usually try and tell myself they're wrong, since I've never had any of them confirmed before, but this has gotten me thinking. I feel like I should never leave the house again, in all honesty. It probably sounds like this wasn't a big deal or anything (it really wasn't, I need to have thicker skin), but I just feel like the world's biggest loser at the moment.

He had no right to attack you like that and your friend may not have been helping as much as he/she should have. This guy seems like a moronic jock/jock-wannabe that tries to cause others emotional pain since he can't deal with his own.

Yeah I'm already calmed down about it quite a bit. I honestly feel bad for him; I mean I know I have my issues and I've come to terms with that, but he must have some serious inferiority complex if he needs to act that way to feel better about himself. I'm not a fighter so I wouldn't of took a punch at him, but I know I could of hurt him emotionally and if this was back when my drinking was worse I would of; I'm kinda glad I took the high road for once and just got out of there

As a result i can't even feel my snot running down my nose until it reaches my mouth...yuk!
As a result from that, i woke up in the middle of the night feeling something on my face.
Sleepy as i was i scratch my face. Result: wet fingers.
Still sleepy i was suprised about that and feel my face with the palm of my hand.
Fucking snot was al over my fucking face now.
So i get up, grossed out terribly and wide awake.
At this point i blow my nose and, off course, nothing comes out.
Ergo, try to get some sleep while you're trying to feel if a new stream of snot is forming!

Other vegans on the internet (well, some of them). There always seem to be loads of vegans in comments sections proudly going on about how their children aren't vaccinated. Okay, vaccines have ingredients derived from egg (I think) and are most likely tested on animals, BUT it's kind of a necessary evil because vaccines eradicate diseases. I don't get why you would risk not only your own child getting ill, but a whole load of other children possibly getting ill, and I guess (as a more sensible commenter pointed out) you could give a donation to an organisation doing research on alternative testing methods to offset it. Unless they're also the same people that try to spread misinformation about how vaccines cause autism.
Some people can be a bit vegan policey too. I mean I'm pretty strict and I never think "fuck it" and eat animal products (unless I buy them by accident), but if someone else who was vegan did, I wouldn't give them evils and berate them for doing so. I mean at least they're trying not to eat animal products and they're not indifferent to the issue, and surely that's still a good thing? You're not going to convince other people to give veganism a go if you make them feel horrible about eating milk chocolate every once in a while.

- the hotel supervisor has made no arrangements to have a logical delivery schedule so now we are stuck with a ton of lamp shades and not the actual lamps to put them on resulting in a room full of lamp shades and no space for anyone else to do their work in.

I'm not hating on people, young or old, who live with their parents; I was just alluring to the fact that if he wasn't out and lived with his parents it might be a hindrance to us meeting up. I reject the bourgeois mindset of needing to move out and have your own place as soon as possible: everyone has different economic needs and some people, such as where I live, will live with family on and off for a great deal of their lives. Bills are high and we do not make enough, is simple logic and anyone who belittles such people is yanking some kind of semi-class privilege over those who do not earn a great deal.

These stupid double standards between men and women. I was drinking with my cousin and his friends last night and this guy is going on about it's so unattractive when women smoke weed or drink alcohol. Uhh wtf, we're sitting here taking shots and I've smoked with him numerous times, why shouldn't girls be able to enjoy this too without being unattractive? Girls are supposed to be pure or something I guess, what an idiot.
That when I'm at a party so many girls think I'm trying to sleep with them or something when I'm just trying to have a nice conversation about stuff that's not even sexual at all.
You mean people who actually think that way exist? I think it's cool when anyone drinks or smokes in moderation, though I personally don't drink. People who aren't into that stuff are weird. What an excellent thing to transition from.
People who don't swear or are offended by swearing annoy me. They're just a bunch of wieners. Just as bad as the anti-pot people. Wieners, wieners, wieners, all of them. They should go read a book about puppies or whatever dorks are into.
I hate when I say something barely insulting, and everyone acts like I just made a death threat. But that is Virginia for you. South? No longer. North? We aren't that lucky. It's mid-Atlantic, which means you get the worst of both worlds. It's like high school, only the rules apply to all ages.

The first rule of Marx Club is you don't talk about Marx Club
Or, at least, I don't normally, but it makes me cringe to hear "das kapital" because it's always over-stressed "DOSSS KAWWPITAWWWLL" and used in a menacing tone of voice.
I live in Holland, near the German border (if i look over my right shoulder i can see it!). Hearing people talk in german is just quite normal for me. Do you translate the german submarine movie-title Das Boot too? (The boat...no man, just wrong!)

Das Booty and Rammstein are both said in German here. It's just when people say "Das Kapital" it's always in a really menacing voice, like they're talking about some satanic tome (hail satan) that describes a plan for world genocide or something.

its possible to translate the word but not the word as the bands name. their name is after the Flugtagunglück von Ramstein in the town Ramstein-Miesenbach (which is why their original name was Rammstein-Flugschau). By translating it as ramming stone u miss out on the bands reference and recurring theme. u gunna translate the song Rammstein to Ramming stone too? the songs name will make absolutely no sense at all! :lol: if u translate their name to "ramming stone" u are changing the meaning of their name and therefore doing a terrible job of translating. ;)1

I think I came close to killing my microwave today.
I bought some Nutella chocolate spread with hazelnuts because it makes for a fucking awesome snack when spread on bread. Cracked it open for the first time today, but since I have no central heating and my flat is as poorly insulated as an open-topped sports car in the depth of an Antarctic snowstorm, it was rather difficult to spread. So I jam it in the microwave for a very quick warm-up and less than a moment later I see sparks and flashes within. I fucking forgot about the remains of the foil seal around the lid!
So I had to quickly remove the jar from the microwave and instead finesse things a bit with some mechanical action. This is a most unsatisfactory solution!

I don't really like this kind of thinking tbh. I don't know how you meant to come across, but I think the idea of seeing a girl who likes girls as a challenge is really problematic.
If an attractive girl is gay, she and her partner aren't there to turn guys on. Some guys make objectifying comments when they see girls kiss in public, which makes me feel as though they think women exist to please them. If you're kissing someone, it's not a free porn show. Plus, if a girl is gay (as opposed to bi), she's never going to like you back. I've overheard things to the tune of "she just needs the right guy" said so many times, and it's just sexist and homophobic. You wouldn't say the same thing about a straight guy.

People on facebook who just do not listen to reasoned debate. Just had a conversation that went like:
Person: I'm not giving my child any more vaccines.
Me: Reasons why vaccines have been good for us.
Person: Other people don't vaccinate their kids and they're okay.
Me: Explained that lack of vaccinated people means bad diseases come back.
Person: I just don't agree with them, okay? *arguments about how vaccines are unnatural, confuses vaccines with antibiotics*
*facepalm*
I can't just leave something like that though. I know it will be futile, but I really think that not vaccinating your child a) puts your own child at risk and b) puts other children at risk if you cause a fucking outbreak of a disease.

To me that is not very small. I don't want my niece or nephew to get horrible diseases because some crypto-new age parent didn't want to vaccinate.

I'd tell them the only reason their kids aren't dying right now is because of a neat little effect called herd immunity from responsible parents vaccinating their children

I've never worked cleaning toilets so I'll have to take your word for it. I guess maybe some women don't like sitting on public toilets? I have a lot of male friends though (and a male partner) and especially when they're drunk they seem to get piss everywhere.

22nd February 2013, 23:36
I actually piss better drunk than sober. That is probably because I am rather anxious of missing the toilet completely and wetting my own pants when I am drunk, so I really pay attention to hit the water in the toilet. And it always works.
Or maybe I am just so drunk I don't even notice I spill everything...

Ok, i'll ask this here just to see if i'm being paranoid. I don't think I am, but i've never ever been good with social convention and i'm pretty sure this classifies as rude. So some people come to my house to meet my housemates to get ready to go out to a bar where there is a celebrity from a reality show. That in itself is fucking awful. Now, i'm skint, I can't drink because i'll starve, so i'm in my room. Anti-social? I expect so, but what am I gonna do, sit and talk to people I don't know for the sake of... what? Is jesus gonna kill me for not fulfilling an unwritten social contract that i'm pretty sure I shouldn't be forced to subscribe to? Now, I don't see any of these people apart from 2 people I let in, but on their way out to go where their going, someone shouts goodbye to me. It's an unfamiliar voice, so I don't know them. Call me crazy, but isn't that a bit rude? It seemed to me as if it's purpose was to accentuate the fact I hadn't been involved at all, and I can't really think of any otherwise explanation. Am I just being scatty or am I being mugged off?

Maybe they were being rude, maybe they weren't. Probably, depending on how it sounded, and I wasn't there so I can't say. But if you got that feeling that it was, it probably was.

It's not for 'no reason' this annoys me really, I'm fairly sure this kind of thing is used to torture people actually, but this thread seems like the most proper place to vent about it, so. Here goes, I know this sounds insane but I'm unfortunately not making it up.
I'm sitting at a reception desk, on a cruiseferry. The outgoing phone line has an extremely annoying ringtone, but on normal occasions it doesn't matter as it quits ringing when you pick up the phone, right?
Now there is some fucking error with the satellite phone server thing however, which makes the phone ring constantly for 5-10 minutes, quit for about the same time and start again. There is nobody on the line, and it doesn't quit ringing when I try to answer - the signal only gets transferred to one of the other phones at the desk (1 meter away).
This has now been going on for two days, and noone on the technical departments onboard or ashore can fix the problem, at least not yet. It really disturbs me, especially when I have customers at the desk as I have shit concentration skills as it is..
Soon I'll go nuts and start singing la-la-la standing on my head, or something.

I can totally feel you; I recognise that feeling from both political activity and from work. It's something that can't be avoided, as both things are absolutely necessary, but it's very exhausting indeed.
I just came home after a 10 day shift at work. I'm getting paid decently enough compared to similar jobs ashore, and am also privileged by having a steady job with a contract protected by Swedish labour laws - until the ship's flag is changed of course.
But sometimes I wonder how long I can do that kind of work, ie service crew on a cruiseferry. It can be rather stressful, I feel I'm getting too old to do that, and I'm only 32.. :(
And now there is some intensive political work ahead, after some necessary resting. But that I'm looking forward to, it's the kind of work that is natural and enjoyable for me.

When I am on Queer youth forums and trying to give a kid advice on STDs or explain to him something about oppression and he is so hysterical about his position (hystical as in obsessive) that he will not listen to reason.
Now when I say this I really mean it. I can understand depression, as I have it, and I can understand the anxiety caused by not knowing your status, because I have been there, but there is a difference between being "down" for suffering oppression (living life as an open gay person, being worried about your status and between being irrational about it.
For instance: there is currently a discussion where this kid has oral relations with another boy. Sometime later he had a discharge from his penis, which was treated, but keep on going on and on about how if he tells the other person that he MIGHT have an STD then the other person is going to accuse him of sexual assault and whatnot. Then after this he sets in about how he is worried about "serious complications" setting in and whatnot. It is just maddening to a degree. Eventually he told the other boy and he took it well but even so this guy keeps on insinuating by saying,"It looks like I am in the clear... for now". Urgh... as if the other guy would do anything he believes he would.
Now I want it to be known that I do not find it maddening he is worried about his status, it is that I find it tiring how he is, against all incoming advice, determined to maintain his point of "everything is going to attack me and people are going to accuse me of doing this and I am going to have the worst results" and so forth.
You would have to see the conversation to really know about it but needless to say I just find these hyper-dramatic personalities exhaustive. They don't listen to reason, they remain mired in their own little depressive world, and entertain the most ludicrous ideas on what "might" happen is they actually follow through with taking some advice which will help them.
