Had an extremely long and convoluted nightmare about being trapped in a reality show thing where we were forced to kill zombies in an arena over and over until we all died. Sean Bean was there. Eventually four of us, out of a group of 20, managed to bust out of there only to find ourselves in a large hotel for round two, but the hotel was actually a palace overlooking a really weird "Hyde Park" in London. So Sean Bean, some guy, me and my girlfriend are clambering over rooftops to escape this shitshow and get into this park at ground level where Sean Bean has an uber waiting for us. Then there's like a movie timeskip to weeks later where my "character", who is apparently a catburglar, gets tricked into breaking into what turns out to be the zombie hotel for round two, at which point I wake up extremely rattled and shook. This is notable to me as I almost never have nightmares, and not this long and hosed up; It was all very detailed and coherent, and I remember it all, and I have been unable to get back to sleep for hours now. gently caress you brain!

This didn't make my day lovely but dang it I want to whine a little bit into the void! A few days ago my 10 year old son was like "dad, you should stop using snus, its bad and harmful for your teeth and health  " and in the word deluge Im thinking to myself, what the hell kind of counter argument can I muster here? I could have pulled the "I make the rules here, kid" card, but I feel like that would definitely not be a good look, as a parent and someone who wants to set a good example. No my child, I will not stop using the harmful, carcinogenic substance that offers zero benefits. I'm The Adult Here. Lol no. So I said okay, and now three days later I'm fiending so bad. I have been shoving that poo poo under my lip for 12 years, and I'm feeling it lol

Appreciate the kind thoughts! Today my son was like "dad why are you sweating so much" and I had to launch into a short explanation on addiction.

That's actually a really good idea, drat.

Great dogs, shame about the allergy Hey its me again, back to complain about stuff. A friend and I have been low key thinking about renting a house together out in the sticks, we're both kinda stuck in bad, expensive apartments fairly centrally located, which we both hate. We're pretty similar in how we think and live (at least, I thought so....), we both have a kid 50%, under a year apart in age, who like each other. It kinda seemed like a no brainer to be honest. Turns out my guy is kind of an rear end in a top hat and an idiot, he was banking on this happening because in his mind, we would have a 24/7 lan party. We are 34 years old, and we both have a kid. In no way is that something you can, or should, hope for. So Im like, what the gently caress, and start digging. Turns out my guy actually just hates being a parent and assumed I did too. Like its totally normal to spend all your time and energy figuring out reasons why your daughter cant come this week, or even worse, when she is there he tells me (proudly! Like its normal!!!!) she wakes up at 7, he sleeps until noon then plays fifa all day while his daughter is sent to her room with an ipad. Again, I'm like, what the gently caress? And then he goes "no no its okay, i was investigated by CPS but they had to close the case due to staffing issues".  somehow in his mind that means his neglectful parenting is state sanctioned. And then today he went on a diatribe about Pride and how in general gays are ok but not when he has to know they exist in some fashion. In the span of like four days I have lost all respect I once had for this man and Im pissed because 1) for the first time in a long time I had started sorta planning for the future, and then that plan went bust. And 2) being a friendless loser, this guy was basically the only person I would hang with, we've know each other for over 20 years, now thats over. I can't even look him in the eyes anymore, I'm loving so pissed and disgusted.Ninja edit: also turns out he spends all his money on fifa points and weed, so his mommy has to send him hundreds of dollars every month to keep the wheels spinning. This is totally sustainable according to him and he did not understand how I could possibly think this was a negative.

Lol, lmao. Should have googled it or whatever but idiot me assumed as long as the cables and whatnot match up it should work. Holy loving poo poo I am so upset.

Malachite_Dragon posted:If it's not bad, you're working yourself up for nothing. If it is or it's something time-sensitive, then ignoring it might only make it worse. The only way to know is to open it now or at least soon. It's either rent is going up, or I'm being evicted. I can't handle either of those right now. So if I ignore it, maybe this time it will go away

My kitchen ceiling has started leaking, which is very bad. My kitchen is permanently freezing now. Dishwasher broke. Heating only works sporadically. Broke and extremely worried about christmas vis a vis my kid. Haven't slept for two days. Landlord is on vacation somewhere in the pacific and is unreachable.

I'm praying to Satan I manage to thaw it out before the weekend, where we have been forecast -20c weather  my landlord is 'out of town' until monday lmfao. gently caress you!!Ok well I told him that for all i know those pipes can burst at any time and if that happens, that's at least two apartments that will be destroyed, plus, you know I have no water which I would like to have, and he just does not care.

Well looks like my nightmare came true, my downstairs neighbor woke me up at 5am because waters dripping from her ceiling. Can't wait to get into a months long legal battle with my landlord, the wastrel failson of a rich and succesful lawyer, over who gets to pick up the bill, even though I'm about 90% sure that legally I'm covered. gently caress!!!!!!
