Having a Bad Day?: Get 'yer Hugs here!!

EID MUBARAK EVERY ONE!!! A bit strange in my opinion how Eid coincided with the 9/11 anniversary, and how Clinton got pneumonia.

Strange indeed

[Briar King]

Dates line up all the time so nothing strange. I haven't watched news on the race today but if she has that I don't feel sorry for her. I personally loathe her.

Just a quick warning: There are some conspiracy theories about 9/11 floating around out there, the most well-known being that it was an inside job by the US government. Many Americans find this and other 9/11 conspiracy theories offensive, so….just be careful what you say around that date. It's a very solemn day here in the US.

Yeah, all of us Aussies know about these theories. We Aussies feel for you guys.

Watching CNN special on it and their slinging F bombs left and right unedited. Lang doesn't bother me one bit but I'm surprised they are doing this on cable.

bringing back some hectic memories watching this coverage.

It's almost 3 in the storming morning. I'm outside with Bruce. 'Nuff said. 

Why does he want me to take him on a long march all around the storming complex??? IT IS THREE IN THE MORNING. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE FOLIAGE OUTSIDE OUR BUILDING. I WANT TO GO BACK TO BED.

Maybe he likes to walk in the middle of the night more, because it's cooler? I hope you get back to bed soon and have a peaceful sleep then.

LAST NIGHT IN A NUTSHELL

Me: trying to sleep

My friends: bombarding me with memes over group message

Me: "Hey guys can you chill so I can get some sleep?"

He was having stomach trouble, if you catch my meaning. Usually happens when he eats something that doesn't agree with him, but I can't think of what, unless he found something on the sidewalk when I wasn't looking. It'll usually clear up after a day or so. 

I managed to get back to uninterrupted sleep….for three hours.  Hopefully, tonight will be better.

I usually just put my phone on silent and turn it upside down so the light can't wake me.

Maybe pets were just insane last night. Quick was pretty much like those cats on Looney Tunes that sing opera in the alleyway while Elmer Fudd is trying to get some sleep.

Hardly got any sleep last night, and it's one of those "everything is the most annoying thing I can think of" days. Fun day to deal with people.

I'm sorry today is one of those days, Twi.

Feel free to rant to us!

Thanks. Though I don't really think "I got really irritated with this guy because he seemed a little demanding when asking me to unlock the lab so he could look for his flash drive" and "oh Smiling God, when will my coworker stop smacking her lips" should get rants. That'd probably just encourage me to keep going.

Pro: I'm staying home from school today!

Con: I am deathly ill.

What a lovely way to start out the week.

Does the illness make you feel...hollow? Perhaps you're even feeling... deathly hollow?

Alternatively, have you demonstrated any other symptoms of lycanthropy lately?

Assuming you mean Clinical Lycanthropy, which is a form of schizophrenia (Yes, having doctors for parents teaches you interesting things). 

@Mistrunner, have you had any moments of lucidity on which you appear to remember having "dreams" of being an animal or being transformed into one? Have you had any animalistic urges, feelings or anything? Could I speak to anyone you know as to find out if you have behaved in a manner which is similar to that of an animal? Such as ggrrrowling, ahwowling, crrrawling????

If Twi means the other form of lycanthrophy, then I suggest administering a dose (around 200 mL should do) of Wolfsbane and to ensure that someone close to you has a gun with a silver bullet every full moon should you need.....to be restrained, alternatively a good horse tranquilliser shiould do.  Of course you could just be down with the common cold but hey, precautions must be taken.

If you were in the real world with me and were my close friend, I would tell you to kill yourself (my friends tell me that every time I make a bad joke, which is around twice a period) e.g in English class today, we were watching Groundhog day, a kid at the back called the (protagonist????) a player, on which I said, 

"or perhaps you could call him a replayer" kudos to whoever gets it

But since your not here in the real world, and telling someone to "kill themself" is abundantly rude, then I know a place where they help out....special people  

EDIT- Just to clarify that the above is entirely a joke, and that I mean it lightheartedly, so we can avoid abject derailment and the failure of understanding, not to mention any uncalled for down-votes. Seriously.

This is odd.  I have several friends in New York City who do the exact same thing.   Where do you live again?

Yeah, it would be weird to say it to anyone who does not use the same phrases.  I like to think I've been around, and I have heard a whole ton of odd phrases that would definitely seem rude or off to the wrong people.

I had a really sweet teacher who joked about throwing students out the window so...it all depends on tone and chemistry and context.

Of course if you know the chemical mix for child defenestration you kind of have to use it.

Correct. So @Darkness Ascendant I'm fine with such jokes. A bunch of busy bodies probably wouldn't be and would say such things like "that's mean/rude/insensitive!" So long as the joke is directed at me, you can send those busy bodies to this post to show that I'm fine with such jokes.

And for you busy bodies, a special message:

So. Teachers.

My history teacher is definitely not the best on any day, as he can't pronounce anything correctly and he steals all his (low-quality) powerpoints and assignments from other teachers, but today was especially bad. For one, he kept pronouncing "Canaan" as "cannon". It went downhill from there. We started talking about Judaism. I may not be Jewish, but my best friend is, and I've read the Bible. I'm at least vaguely familiar with the concepts. I know at least enough to realize that the name for God they used in both his powerpoints and the textbook is considered extremely sacred and not to be pronounced outside of prayer. I kept wincing every time he said it. Not... good...

My English teacher is possibly worse than my history teacher, which is fun. Her classroom occasionally smells suspiciously like cigarette smoke, and once last week she just left in the middle of the day. The office didn't even know she was gone. We had to stand outside awkwardly until they sent down one of the office ladies to awkwardly attempt to tell us what to do. It was weird. She resigned yesterday, so now we have no English teacher and an AP test at the end of the year.

Yaaaay.

I might have had different chemistry teacher every year. Wait, no, I think I had six in five years. Or was it seven? Can't really remember.

It actually turned out OK, because if the last one was a better teacher, I might have not passed it But since I power-leveled through quantum chemistry and then done some presentation about radioactivity being completely lost on everything else that was during the year I still had a pretty good grade! (If I had a better teacher I'd be in trouble with all the organic stuff)

Anyway, @Mistrunner, I feel for you. It's bad when you know more than your teachers about the topic they're supposed to teach.
