tmi question: does anyone else not sleep at all the night before they get their period? i get this sudden rush of energy right before mine and stay awake for like 36 hours straight. it makes me wildly productive too, so it kind of owns. obviously it also makes me a raging war machine but that's pretty standard

is this normal or am i an alien

I wish I got energy. I just get awful period farts. And my face breaks out like I were 16 but I am 36 and SO OVER BREAKOUTS.

E: my face breaks out. Not beaks out. Dunno which is worse.

according to the hit show cops drugs are stored in the vagina

This is true. I've seen this IRL. Lady had a couple of 20s and some percosets up in there in a baggie only it was a hospital and not cops. She let us have them voluntarily, I did not have to assist her in this matter.

I keep my drugs in my stomach but they tend to dissolve so I have to keep replenishing the stomach-stash every so often but eh what can you do.

Also just cover your farts with a loud fake sneeze.

I am sad now because my first thought on "after midnight booty call" is "gently caress you, I'm sleeping".

I wish it would be other women. With Mr.Kitty it's always a drunk or in trouble sailor because his job is like having 17 kids of drinking age, a few who cannot handle the responsibility. One of those kids is 42. And he never hears his phone.

If you call a guy late at night with te intention of it being a booty call and he's not out the door before 15 seconds then he's a loser and you should delete his number from your phone. Dudes should always be on call like an emt

This is an excellent opinion and I approve of this quoted post.

Edit: Except if I'm sleeping. And if I'm calling you during the hours one would usually be sleeping? I'm probably Ambien-dialing and no good will come of this so this is the one and ONLY time I am giving a guy the option to just ignore me.

I appreciate and admire your enthusiasm.

This one time in college I called a guy and he's all "Iuno I was going to the gym" and I'm like you dumbass, it's a 24 hour gym it will still be there are you able to read between the lines here or are you just stupid?

Anyway I was hurt and disappointed for like 10 minutes then I deleted his number (off my pager, all the cool kids had one) and then he decided he didn't like me ignoring him after all and turned into a really persistent and annoying douchebag and then I graduated and here we are today.

I'm cranky because both my MMOs picked Today and Now to do full 8h downtime/restarts/whatever it is they do. Hrmph.

Wow that sounds neckbeardy. Not one, but two MMOs. I haven't played TOR in months if that redeems me in any way (right, probably doesn't).

play some civ 5 and those eight hours will fly by

back when I played online games a lot (runescape and WoW) I always made sure to have a non-online game to pass the time if the internet cut out

I only play one, and I'm a newbie. But that's because I had a lot of friends addicted to Star Wars Galaxies back in the day and swore off computer gaming. Now I'm kind of wishing I had a better graphics card. I'm envious of non-newbies. I feel like I missed out on an era.

Same reasoning for 2 MMOs. There was a period of time where the Whirlwind Battlegroup on WoW was intermittently offline and doing productive things with your time is for losers.

I am buying both a desktop and laptop in time for the next WoW expansion. Neither of them currently are optimized for gaming. I have to run the destop with everything set to "low" in WoW and ToR, and sometimes that isn't even enough for ToR. My laptop overheats and slows to 1 fps on 20 man bgs in WoW, and has the opinion of "haha, no" when it comes to ToR. It loads then locks up.

I slept for maybe 4 hours and couldn't get back to sleep so I looked up people on facebook and considered how much more awesome their lives are and how much they have accomplished.

I think the opposite. A while back I looked up guys from high school who I thought were cute and wouldn't give me the time of day and I'll be kind and say they haven't aged well. Likewise with the women who are have multiple divorces and kids under their belts, and work as "self employed" doing the latest pyramid scam. As much as I complain and whine about things, I know I've got it good and more than a handful of people wish they could trade places with me :smuggo:

Besides, how do you know they're not reading your profile and thinking the same thing? Perception is a bitch.

Is it a first person shooter? Those make me motion sick even thinking about it.

I'd have to do it on Windows because I don't have a console. Is it worth it on a PC?
