stupid first world problems you're dealing with

Went looking for a free download of an album I just heard about, which lead me to the 4chan/mu archives, which lead me to actually reading a few of the threads there, which lead to what-the-fuck-is-wrong-with-people!!  It's like an entire forum of only the worst youtube comments.  Jesus.  Hope this piracy was worth it.

you think /mu is bad, try reading /pol. your brain will essplode.

free healthcare that seriously compounds health problems

have some ombudsman hell fire on your case, cunts

some times life in Britain can feel like a 1930's Soviet-era gulag

TBQH try medical bankruptcy YMMV (not to make light of your health problems of course)

Tahina/tahini can you can say either. Humous/hummus.

I always thought tahina was a different type of dip, made with tahini (it's got garlic and lemon juice and cumin in it). I'm guessing people interchange the various words pretty loosely.

Medical bankruptcy is almost unheard of in socialist hellholes.

just went to watmm and saw the thread about scarjo playing the major in the ghost in the shell movie and now i'm thinking about how shitty that whole sandwich will be. 

im avoiding anything about that movie, i'll watch it then probably have to avoid anything else about it

There has been a recurring problem with some live shows I've done that I am unable to replicate myself.  I have this Resident Audio soundcard that I've been running sequenced tracks as well as automated effects through, and a couple soundguys have mentioned that the Left and Right channels are severely unbalanced.  To fix this they've just boosted whichever side was quieter, obviously.  But any time I plug it in to my own soundboard, or use headphones, the stereo signal is perfectly balanced.  There are only two soundguys who have mentioned it specifically, and the shows were back to back.  I've since mentioned the problem to other soundguys at subsequent shows, under the assumption that it would continue to be a problem, but in retrospect I don't think any of them confirmed that they were had the same issue.  It was perhaps more of an "okay, whatever you say weirdo performer, I have no idea what you're on about"/ignore situation.  Does anyone here have any idea what might lead to such a problem arising? (the unbalanced stereo thing that I'm unable to replicate myself.)  The file I'm using to troubleshoot it is the same one I use when performing live.  Is there something about multiple other PAs elsewhere that would likely cause that problem?  Only thing I can think of is that one DI box had "pad" on and the other didn't each time, but the two soundguys that mentioned the problem didn't strike me as idiots.... and I'm pretty sure I checked that too.

I just watched a documentary about cockfighting, which made me sad and angry. Really dumbass and cruel "Sport".

Then I thought about eastbound&down which made me laughing.

Now I'm left with an awkward feeling.

I've seen a few financial bankruptcies around me, immensely destructive, but the thing about the NHS is if they get it wrong it can be your arse

Which is worse, your wallet or your mind/life?

Its not a perfect world, tried and tested, cancer care for example is world class here, but other areas are a cesspit

When you wait 2 years for basic post-op neurology protocols to be reviewed that should've started 6 weeks after an rta in june '14, shit can get hairy & ugly v quickly. Its not Syria or Iraq, but not all wars are fought on battlefields

On this forum I use people were discussing and complaining about the proper ingredients to make hummus and it annoyed me a great deal

having to deal with people who don't respect hummus

I keep falling for the wrong women 

 

I think I fell for a good one, but we're on different continents now. 

 

On the first world achievements and successes side of things, she is visiting in a month or so.

 

But then more   probably

 

 

I have the opposite problem. She's a close friend and I see her all the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ouch.  those are all stingers

 

Update: My feelings for this woman have only gotten more intense and I fear that merely saying anything about it will destroy any chance I have or fuck up our friendship. I feel sick and I can't think about anything else. On top of that, I keep drinking excessively just so I don't spin myself out if I'm at home alone. Ugh.

With that said, we had a really nice talk last Friday that helped quite a bit.

Sorry to hear that Braintree, dont be self-destructive over it, ime it makes things worse in the end

im guessing that she doesnt feel the same way right? or show any signs

I had someone like that, in fact I was in a relationship with her & she left pretty soon, i was so gutted. But we are good friends now & I wouldnt want anything more than that, so things can & will sort themselves out - at the time though, ouch

She did know everything how I felt though so it went that way by sheer force.  If this is making you ill then its wrong and needs to change, somehow.

I know what you mean though, if she knew it was upsetting you she might give you all the space, but then at least you know how she feels & you can start getting used to becoming friends..

if she likes you she likes you, she will know either way, surely?

From experience falling in love with a dime that pretty much was insanely into me at the time, and I probably would have sealed the deal if I kept my shit together, but I fucked it up bringing up feelings/showing weakness...

Don't fucking mention your feelings. Keep it moving forward. Don't bring it up as a question. Just keep the relationship growing. That's all you need to do.

Do not show insecurity. Do not show that these feelings make you feel weak. (even if they do)

Keep it positive. 

Stay aggressive. Stay fun.

And fuck the shit out of her. (if you haven't already)

If you fuck her good and the relationship is good it will grow by itself, because she will want it as much as you do.

Just keep it positive. always. especially if she is out of your league.(which is commonly while the feelings cause conflict) You have to show 0 insecurity or you'll display to her immediately that you don't think you're worthy of her.

hope this helps. good luck.

also, keep your focus on the fact that this person makes you happy. Use it as fuel to make your life better, and to improve yourself.

focus on being desirable, and not being a fuck up. (not saying you are. I have no clue)

let go of the crippling desire. let go of the fear of not having that thing which you want.

always play it cool.

edit: also meant to say, don't talk about feelings until you've fooled around.

lol

Visited some of my colleagues who work at our US office and they immediately started bitching about the exact same things that I've been bitching about for the past year. Like, it was the exact same things and they both said they were going to quit their jobs if things didn't change.

It's a problem but I'm also really glad someone else mentioned this. Guess I just needed to get it off my chest.
