Pictures of peoples' new born babies keep appearing on my facebook newsfeed to creep me out.

Is it weird to be totally grossed out by babies? Their wrinkly pink misshapenness makes me shudder every time. Apologies to any new born babies who happen to lurk here.

im the same. All babies look like Benjamin button to me. Not cute at all, just an ugly mess of a skin bag.

Don't be sorry. You didn't say anything wrong. If any of them are offended by what you said, they seriously need to grow up.

Yeah I don't think human babies are cute at all. I understand the immediate instinctual need to protect and care for babby, but I also think babby is utterly gross. Also: way too many babby already; the fact that you fucked and one popped out is not interesting at all to anyone except your parents, who are but empty husks wishing for your spawn to give their lives structure and purpose again, as grandparents.

 

That baby listening to Fleure was alright, though.

 

Edit: I don't hate babby, it's not babby's fault.

my friend is travelling around the world right now and keeps postings pictures from exotic locations i would love to visit.

Thanks for all the baby-revulsion empathy, guys. I knew you'd understand.

 

fwp - I woke up today with congestion and emoless tears (eyes were just randomly leaking).

A non-UPS labor dispute has delayed delivery. We're working to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Delivery will be rescheduled.

tl;dr: My package is not going to come on time / today because there is a tube strike, but they won't tell me for sure so I have to sit in till 7pm and can't even go for a piss incase I miss them.

 

 

At least they had the common courtesy to inform you. FedEx can suck my balls. Every time I order something online and fedex are the shippers, I always return home to the inevitable sticker - "final attempt" (is there ever more than one attempt you cock lickers?) and then I have to drive roughly 40 km to the nearest (only) depot that FedEx has.

Canada Post on the other hand, are lovely.

My friends seem to only talk about travelling and buying houses and I am too poor to do either and it sucks.

yeah, FedEx simply does not seem to give a shit. E.g., I had the day off when my iMac was supposed to arrive, so I sat by the front door to my apartment all day waiting, repeatedly checking the tracking number (i have no friends or hobbies or interests). Eventually it stated that I had not been home to sign for the package. The apartment manager noted that FedEx had not even attempted to enter the building. The folks at the depot were basically like yeah, that'll happen sometimes, hurhur

Most of my friends are poor too so it's fine. You can come over and hang, without being annoyed by unattainable annoyingness. [-;

Sublet to them and make them pay in gold. Then again spilt guinness everywhere would be smelly.

i had a dream last night i was drinking guinness...

 

it wasn't an interesting dream

I had a dream that i cracked the back windscreen on my car reversing and then somehow the front too. I wasn't mad about it, just resigned to my mediocre experience of things. I haven't had much sleep lately, been working six day weeks and can only really sleep in not go to bed earlier, because then i just wake up after having less sleep for some reason and you can't sleep in when you ahve to go to work, lol. 7am start on wednes is gonna blow given that i'm usually an evening shift peepa. Jetlag my way through it. I even had caffeine today for the first time in ages in attempt to destump the hump this lump is stumbling over. Been exercising enough despite all this, think i'm not eating enough veges or something and the sleep thing. blarg.

I don't understand how the fuck they're still in business. Everyone I know hates them and their shitty, overpriced "service". I dunno about US post, but Canada Post does just great in parcel delivery.

I had wayyyy too much peri-peri sauce with my Nandos last night and my stomach is aching now.

Not moving now, still have moths.

There's a new-ish guy in my office who cracks all of his knuckles around 3 times a minute, all day, every day, to the extent that I'm amazed he hasn't snapped every finger above the knuckle off of his hands by now.

 

Within a couple of days of him doing this, I told him politely yet firmly how bad it sounds in a loud and mostly quiet office, and would he mind not doing it, please. He was extremely apologetic (he seems quite shy, generally) and calmed it down for a day or two... but his memory doesn't seem to be so good, as he's gone right back to doing it just as much as before. Starting to think it's like a self-inflicted nervous tick that he can't work around. It's driving me to distraction!

ergh!!! so many annoying things people do in my office. where to begin?

Well tell him to stop again. It semi worked the first time, it's effecting your work and he probably doesn't mind stopping, you are most likely helping the poor dumb dumb.

I burnt the centre of my palm on the end of a plastic spatula stiry thingee, that i had left to close to the gas hob. Now who's the dumb dumb i spose. It's funny but it's illuminated to me the position which i hold these things that i had never thought of before and in a most painful manner, because of course i had to keep cooking. Just some pasta creamy bacon vege thing.

yeah this becomes an addiction, he probably doesnt even want to do it. i was terrible for it when i was 10-13 or so, it took real hard work to stop doing it.

I used to crack my wrists and neck all the time, but eventually it became painful so I stopped.... except any time this subject comes up it triggers that old compulsion and I crack my wrists once or twice for old time's sake (just happened).

i got a really nice forced patina on my opinel no. 8 picnic knife, but if I brag about it people will think I'm a libertarian

They only had 2% evaporated milk at Mac's, and it's as though I put regular milk in my coffee. Fucking disgrace if you ask me.

Still with the moths. Such moth, so flying.

I fucking hate moths. Bees and wasps aren't a problem but I fucking hate moths.
