I once had half a front tooth break off while eating fries...
In other news, P-N appears to be off his meds again and cranky as hell. And P-N-Girlfriend is back, spending her time vacuuming their apartment (for hours) and having (loud) sex with P-N .
Oh well, perhaps soon some new people will be able to 'enjoy' them, as a serious option for a new house has shown up...

I really hope you are able to move away as I've been reading this whole story and you deserve better and should be happy.
Anywhere can be paradise as long as you have the will to live. After all, you are alive, so you will always have the chance to be happy.

TAKE IT! For your own sanity, like robersora said, mental well-being (and sleep) is more important than fun posts about crazy neighbors.

10 Days...? Jesus Puerto Rican Christ... he must have buckets of adderall laying around... though its good that they won't accidentally burn anything down, so that's pretty nice, I mean... at least that's something...

Re: FML general thread [8]
Ugh... this class I'm in now has a very shitty professor. They nitpick every bit of grammar (basically the whole reason they take off points next to "your argument could be longer") and think a forum post needs like three different sources and should be far longer than it needs to, and follows the rubrics way too closely. Though, they never let us know what grammar rules we're breaking... Honestly, I'm putting in the same level of work I usually do into this class, which has always gotten me A's and B's, even with tough teachers, and I have a low C, so I'm just frustrated with the lack of good grades given what I'm putting in.
Also, they like us to put our "bottom line up front" which makes me think they're skimming everything we write in the "support your argument" bit of the posts and papers, so if they don't see the key words they're looking for, they take off points Guess it's time to brush off the "I love baby seals" line and insert it a few times into my next case study to test that theory.
Anyway, I'm in class right now, and I just needed to vent...

Re: FML general thread [8]
I'm pissed off and I need to vent.
I'm pissed off at my dad for giving into my mom by letting her get a real Christmas tree again. Yesterday we bought an artificial tree from a thrift shop, my mom couldn't put it together and instead of asking my dad or anyone for help, she then donates the tree to another thrift shop. Anyhow, we spent the whole weekend looking at artificial trees and the ones that we wanted were either too expensive or sold out. -_-
And finally my parents keep enabling my sister by letting her talk on the phone with and facebook messenger and even hang out with this creep. -_- She's 23 and very naive and he's 19. He looks like a young Weird Al Yankovic if you ask me. XD Anyhow, they are not dating mainly cause everyone in my family hates this creep. Then again most of the guys she's liked before him were creepy. Anyhow, young Weird Al is a horndog, he's mentioned sex to her in a conversation and my parents have caught them locking lips once we ended up driving behind his parents and my mom caught my sister and young Weird Al Yankovic making out in the backseat of his parents' car, the second time was at a bowling alley on a group date and my parents saw them kissing and her making out with him again. Also, last year young Weird Al bought her a back massage wand as a Christmas gift which is totally inappropriate. I'm pissed off cause my parents keep enabling her by still letting her have contact with and see this creep. If I had my way his phone number and facebook would be blocked and she'd never be allowed to see him or talk to him again. Even though my sister isn't the brightest bulb I still love her and I just don't wanna see her get hurt by this creep. To be honest, I don't even know what she sees in this guy. :/

I don't understand what's the problem with a 23 year old engaging in sexual activities. Also, it's her relationship, unless she's in immediate danger it's not your place to decide for her.
I also don't understand why a fake Christmas tree would be better than a real one.

^ I'm a fake Christmas tree owner, it's prelit and comes in three sections and stands just over 7ft tall. I don't have to water it and it stores away nice and easy, plus no mess or disposal, so I'll be using for a great long while.

Re: FML general thread [8]
Are you seriously arguing that a 23-year-old should be subject to parental control? If she wants to make life choices that you disapprove of, then that's up to her, not you or your parents.

You know Xmas is about having a good time so, so what if your mum wants a real tree.

I mean no offence but in your past posts you say you've dated some really bad guys whose girlfriend you've constantly cussed with mean spirited words so trying to control and tell your sister who she should and shouldn't be dating makes you look very bad as its none of your concern. I think maybe now its time to stop throwing hated and malice at the people around you and look inside yourself to what's really bothering you and maybe escape from your situation.
Also your parents level of control sounds very bad as normally parents let go around 18 its not normal for them to be following around and dictating love interests at that age. Maybe you should talk to someone outside your family a therapists or councillor because right now you come off as some one who hates the world and everybody in it hence why your attacking everyone and that crap might make you feel good but its not real emotional power its an illusion and makes you a bully, long term you have to have self love and feel complete as a person.

Yeah, you're right. My most recent ex was way too much for me to handle. Anyhow, despite me and my sister being adults we still live at home. We both have Asperger's and other issues, so we're not normal adults. I will admit that I do bully my sister, cause I'm jealous cause she's the favorite and she's thin. I'm just really on edge cause my time of the month is coming any day now and I have really bad PMS. I vented about my sister only because I have nowhere else to vent about it. I do love her, but I don't want her to get hurt this creep. Whenever I try to tell her to be careful around this guy she gets all pissy and won't listen to me. Also, she's very naive and doesn't really know anything about sex. Anyhow, I'm probably gonna end up discussing this with my therapist on Monday. Also, I don't hate the world and everybody in it. I just hate the fact that I have Asperger's and other issues that don't make me normal. I just wish that there was a cure for Asperger's and all the other issues that I have.

Re: FML general thread [8]
Okay this makes more sense of your situation.
I will admit that I do bully my sister, cause I'm jealous cause she's the favorite and she's thin. I'm just really on edge cause my time of the month is coming any day now and I have really bad PMS. I vented about my sister only because I have nowhere else to vent about it. I do love her, but I don't want her to get hurt this creep. Whenever I try to tell her to be careful around this guy she gets all pissy and won't listen to me.
You bullying her because she's your parents favourite is not right you should be talking to your parents about that issue not taking it out on her there's an old saying blame the game not the player you should take that on board. She proberbly gets pissy because your bullying her and she picks up on the vibe that the thing about being a bully is people don't respect you, they fear you. Also having a go at her body size because she's thin is just an added layer to that as it makes you look shallow and vindictive and she proberbly picks up the vibe.
Also, she's very naive and doesn't really know anything about sex. Anyhow, I'm probably gonna end up discussing this with my therapist on Monday. Also, I don't hate the world and everybody in it. I just hate the fact that I have Asperger's and other issues that don't make me normal. I just wish that there was a cure for Asperger's and all the other issues that I have.
Then educated and protect her and don't be an asshole to her, be the bigger sister doing so might change her reception towards you. In life we are sometimes handed crappy cards that don't make us normal that suck like we can't fit in we are social out casts loners or have disabilities that we can not cure, what matters is how you behave as a person and rise above it. Instead of waiting for a cure that will never come strive to be a better person because I'll tell you now wallowing in self hated and self pity gets you no where you just hate yourself even more and fall deeper in to that rabbit hole.
Anywhere can be paradise as long as you have the will to live. After all, you are alive, so you will always have the chance to be happy.

Re: FML general thread [8]
What is it with computers and otherwise normally intelligent people that causes them to make a complete mess of things when something goes wrong?
Apparently my dad's PC crashed yesterday (froze completely while doing a malware scan with one of his dodgy programs he found on the interwebs - something which I warned explicitly against, even pointing out that if you googled said program it said it was malware). So what does he do? Grab the Dell system-restore CD, and reformat the hard disk after said CD 'safeguarded' some (but not all) of his files. Then he reinstalled Windows. FFS, he should have called me the moment he saw the word "reformat" . Also, I am pretty sure there was a "D"-partition on that system before the reformat...
Now he's lost all of his email (except for a two-month old backup), and of course doesn't want to admit he fucked up and also doesn't want any help. But he does complain to me about it.
Edit: Apparently it's hard to admit he did something wrong. He claimed he got the email working, sends me an email, and going by the headers it was sent from his provider's webmail...
/venting
Oh well, going by how the video output seems to be getting more and more unstable, with some luck it will be time for a new PC in the near future. For which I'll personally oversee that the main user account is locked down so far that installing crap won't be possible...(although Linux Mint crossed my mind too).

Old people and Computers are as dysfunctional as a heroin couple.
I just love how my parents think I know anything about Computers, just because I'm young. I'm using Apple products to avoid thinking about any of this shit, god damn it.
I'm in favor of giving everyone in my family Apple products. I know at least what's going on rudimentarily (haven't used Windows since XP days), and they have a great customer support.

Unfortunately our last experience with the (Dutch) Apple Support department was pretty much a disaster...
There also might be a health-related thing going on, because the last year or so he's been very irascible quite often, and unfortunately that really doesn't help at all. He had a Mac, then that one suffered a backlight failure (it was quite old already), and suddenly all Apple was bad etc. The PC thing seems to be a repeat of that...
