T-Square posted:Guys I have a bunch of Halloween parties this month but I have no loving clue what I want to do for a costume. Serious problems here. Go as Bill Murray characters. Go to one party as Peter Venkman, another as Groundskeeper Carl, Steve Zissou, etc. None of them are hard to pull off and should be good for a laugh. Come to think of it, I just might do that myself.

Fucknag, you failed an exam...one single, measly exam. Your life or indeed you academic career are far from over. Yeah it might feel kind of lovely, but life is absolutely full of failure, so get used to it. What you need to do is learn from your failure so that you don't do it again. My advice is to forget about it until tomorrow, then sit down and have a good session of self-reflection...try to figure out where you went wrong and what you should do differently. Then formulate a plan to make sure it won't happen again and critically, stick with it! Also, if you need help, get it. Find a study buddy (not that kind of "study buddy"); talk to your prof/TA to see if there is anything they can do to help you along What I'm trying to say is there is no reason to give up on yourself just because you failed an exam; in the grand scheme of things it will likely prove to be a nearly-meaningless occurrence in your life. Failing that, you're still leading the Sheep Game!

All I have to worry about is lactose intolerance, which is pretty bad in my case. About the most milk I can consume at any given time is about what you'd put in your coffee/tea and that's it; also ice cream is off-limits too sadly (but yogurt and cheese is A-OK). I basically don't drink either (though anyone who followed me on Snapchat during Oktoberfest might think otherwise ) - work/work scheduling basically means I don't have time to drink, and it feels really loving weird having a beer at 7 am. Also today is Canadian Thanksgiving and I have a serious case of the turkey nods right now.

Rhyno posted:I guess more details are needed. He has a girlfriend whom he lives with and is father to her two children from a previous marriage. We just found out he's been cheating on her for the duration of their relationship. OK first of all there's a huge difference between swearing an oath to someone and liking a Facebook post. Not defending that guy's actions, but my point still stands. Second, and I might be a bit off-base with this observation, but by getting yourself involved in this sort of poo poo, you are becoming exactly the kind of person you claim to loathe. Think back to previous episodes when your friends tried to meddle in your life/relationships...didn't like it too much, did you? The same applies in the opposite direction. To repeat the sentiment many others have expressed, unless this relationship is abusive in any way, keep your nose out of their business. Finally, it really does sound like you need to seriously reevaluate your view of relationships. If you judge your worth by how many friends you have rather than the quality of friends you have, you are doomed to keep repeating this sort of petty, adolescent drama over and over again, no matter how old you get or how physically far away from it you get. Yeah the prospect of having only half a dozen to a dozen real friends might sound scary, but believe me, you will be better for it...just whatever you do, don't set up the proverbial dart board and pick people who will be your new close friends and who won't be. This stuff happens naturally. Also, it might be time to go full retard and completely delete your Facebook account.

Rhyno posted:My sister has been very vocally in agreement with me about not wanting my friends trying to roll up on her. And the fact that a good dozen guys have tried to get me to hook them up with her pulls me in no matter what. Well if your sister is capable of telling you she's not interested in any of your "friends", she's perfectly capable of standing up for herself. I understand she's family and all but at the same time thinking you need to intervene on her behalf is pretty patronising. Having said that, anyone who asked you for an in with your sister is not worth even an iota of consideration in your life. First of all because they don't have the balls to ask your sister for themselves and second of all what the gently caress are they even thinking...asking something like that is just hosed up and creepy even at the best of times. As for judging worth based on the number of friends (real or Facebook) a person has, I've always held the belief like anyone who brags about their bank statment, anyone who even mentions how many friends that have on Facebook isn't really worth associating with, so take that for what it's worth. It is an utterly meaningless number that serve no other purpose other than to fuel one's own egotism. Finall, regarding Facebook; yeah the drama might still happen if you're not on it, but A) it will be a whole lot less than what you are expeiencing now and B) it will be a lot easier to ignore. Considering the sheer number of jackasses that seem to be in your life for no other purpose than to cause you grief, I would consider that a win. Since it is clear that these people aren't going to change for the better, it is entirely up to you to remould your life to the way you want it. You're a smart guy Rhyno, don't sell yourself short.

leica posted:I'm kind of afraid to ask, but what the gently caress is game gate. The tl;dr version is that the gaming industry got called out by Anita Sarkeesian for basically treating women (both in games and IRL) as objects rather than as people. Then all the reddit/4chan MRA manbabies got a hold of it and started making all kinds of threats and boycotts to businesses and people alike because their emotionally and intellectually stunted world view was being challenged by, well, reality.

I only drink coffee when I have little else to choose from. After years of aviation coffee, which is made from Skydrol and ground-up tires as far as I can tell, the thought of drinking coffee - even good, well-made stuff - makes my stomach turn. Give me a cup of tea instead please. Unrelated, but I just had a great lift and I feel much less angry now.

This might be heresy to you IT nerds but Rhyno could also get an ultrabook. I had largely the same needs as Rhyno (plus I wasn't too keen on lugging around a huge, heavy laptop) so I bought a Yoga 2 Pro, and I couldn't be happier with it, to be honest.

We've been friends for a really long time and have a ton in common and I know that he'd treat me really well, but I hate dating friends because it always ends poorly. We also work for the same company now, so that adds an extra layer of bullshit to the mixture. Dating co-workers almost always ends in tears...a wise choice. Don't go dipping your pen in company ink. Or in your case goatse guy, don't get your ink dipped by a company pen.

I just had a seriously good workout...today is a heavy day of squats, deadlifts and bench (two sets of twelve reps in each exercise then add weight for one set of five), and I set personal bests in every one of them once again - been setting them now every week for the last eight weeks. Not only am I feeling pretty good now, if last week is any indication I won't even be sore for tomorrow's workout; hot yoga, where I am the only guy in a class of a dozen or so twenty- and thirty-somethings.

NitroSpazzz posted:I can't wait to get back to my garage gym and get back to serious lifting. Do body weight stuff while traveling but it just isn't the same. I've thought about yoga, you enjoy it (other than the eye candy)? I do enjoy it; I find it really helps with my flexibility and range of motion, and all the the stretching from the poses feels so good after a week of heavy workouts and sitting on my rear end for hours at work. Plus it's also a killer isometric workout too. If you choose to do hot yoga bring a shitload of water and don't be surprised if you feel like you're going to die halfway through. But yeah, the eye candy is pretty good too.
