I thought goons liked floor pizza?
I've had this happen (not a pizza though). I get so angry. I can't eat it, but it's on the floor looking back at me and laughing at the 30-60 minutes I just spent making a meal.

If it fell in the living room or the side of my bed I'd probably be more inclined to trust it. It fell right by the trash can, and even I have my limits on what kind of trash I'll eat.

When I was in middle school, I had a crush on a seemingly nice boy. He was somewhat good-looking, and quite a nerd, but I really thought we had a good connection. Anyway, he heard about my crush, and right before the big dance, he came up to me at lunch, at our table, with all of my friends there, and told me that there was no way he would ever take me to the dance, because I was a freak. Prior to that, I had actually done OK in middle school. Anyway, I found out about 10 years later that he was gay. He also tried to send me a message on Facebook like two years ago, but I never read it. I always kind of wonder how things would've been different if he had even just said nothing instead of humiliating me. Maybe I would be more conscientious when I tell men to go gently caress themselves.

Maybe you should shouldn't hold a grudge against all men because of some boy in middle school, also if that's the worst thing that's happened to you then I am jealous because that's a pretty good life.

Saturday is my only loving day off between school and work which is a luxury, except my neighbour never fails to use his tablesaw all day every loving weekend. Even if it's raining.

I was laid off from a job unexpectedly and my then live in girlfriend dumped me

Either one alone would have been fine, like pay rent with unemployment and go on interviews; OR find a new apt and start a new social life.

Both at once coming out of the blue was pretty rough won't lie.

When on my 30th birthday I was getting chemotherapy to try and stop an auto-immune disease that was eating my nervous system. I went from healthy and strong to a wheelchair in under six months, for no reason the best neurologists in the country could understand. That really sucked. It was obviously life-changing.

That being said, I love seeing obesity and drug addiction referred to as "diseases." I wish all diseases were voluntary, because no way would I have volunteered for the disease I had.

Another time, back in college, I bought a Tombstone pizza, and then as I was taking it out of the oven it fell on the floor, completely ruining both the pizza and my grand dinner plans.

That's only a bad thing if it hits the floor upside down. Otherwise, the 5 second rule applies.

Physically, it was getting a ripping dose of nororvirus. Jesus loving Christ, that was a nightmare. I really hoped I could die from it just so it would stop. I puked, poo poo and fainted for a couple of days steady. I remember trying to get up from the bathroom floor and being unable to stand, it was too difficult. I felt like such poo poo. The thought of dying was comforting because it meant the horrible feeling of being that sick would end, but in death, I could also taking the loving disease with me. Suck my rear end, highly contagious virii.



Otherwise, it was seeing the corpse of a good friend who had been dead for several days.

April 9th, 2009 I found my brother dead in my spare bath. We had both just divorced and he moved in with me. Growing up we weren't always the closest, but were very close from the time he was 13 or so onward. My girlfriend and I were getting ready to leave when UPS showed up with a part for one of his motorcycles, so I knocked on the bathroom door to tell him. He had music cranked up on his laptop and he responded. We left for a couple hours and when we came back, the bath water was still going and I couldn't get a response so I forced the door open and found him face down and cold with a shipment of 3 balloons of heroin he had gotten in the mail. He had been clean for quite a while and was doing well at his job but relapsed and there was a bunch of bad stuff coming in on the west coast at that time (according to news around the time of of his death) and his stuff had come from Portland from a fake music store and the balloons were inside a CD case.

When the ambulance and police showed up, the detective acted like I was insane when I told them he had gotten it through the mail and he had ordered research chemicals (2ci, 2cb) and various drugs online for a few years by converting money into bullion, etc. and that I'd seen one of the stores he bought from and it was set up like any other online store but for drugs. He acted like I was telling him about an alien abduction.

He was was also a goon and used to lurk GBS and post in TCC.

Yeah realtalk the reason so many people think addiction is "voluntary" is bc of one of the biggest misconceptions in human history: the belief that free will exists. We are all controlled by physics, the idea that we make decisions of our own accord is an illusion

Consider this: there has never, in all of recorded history, been an instance where an Alzheimer's patient who copped to having a memory problem. Literally every one, when you point out that you just told them something they forgot, either evade, don't respond, or angrily shrug it off.

It's almost like humans are nothing more than biological OS's who all respond basically the same way to the same stimuli

It's not even like a "they pulled the wool over your eyes!!" conspiracy thing or whatever, it's just a simple fact that a model of the world that treats free will as nonexistent is more accurate than a model that doesn't
