Edgedancer he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 If my parents' current strategy is any indication of their future behavior, they'll just give me Spokane job listings for Christmas. (My mom just texted me a posting for a library assistant at a nearby college up there.) For Twimom control over you seems more important than what's actually best for you. Feel free to ignore her, Twi.
Zathoth Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Glue her mouth shut and put a sticker over it saying "Dont open until Doomsday." 1
ChickenPlague he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Glue her mouth shut and put a sticker over it saying "Dont open until Doomsday." Or do something that doesn't turn her into a creepypasta character.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 I texted her back "Thanks! I'll check it out." Then I added to myself: "...said the liar."
Zathoth Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Or do something that doesn't turn her into a creepypasta character. We cant call it creepypasta anymore, it is trademarked. How about "Dont open until christmas?" I texted her back "Thanks! I'll check it out." Then I added to myself: "...said the liar." I am so proud of you.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 We cant call it creepypasta anymore, it is trademarked. How about "Dont open until christmas?" I am so proud of you. How about a radioactive waste symbol? I already told her that if this job falls through, I'll go to Spokane and spend a week sending out my resume to every library in the state, like she and my dad want me to do. But until then, I'm focusing on what I have. 1

The Invested Beard Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Hello Hello man sitting in the park.
Orlion Blight he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Hello Even better I wanted to type "At least that will shut her up for a while" but it wont, will it? Hello.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Even better I wanted to type "At least that will shut her up for a while" but it wont, will it? Hello. Nope. She overexplains EVERYTHING. You can't hardly ask a simple question like "What's for dinner?" without getting a monologue on what she's making, her motives for choosing what she did, and how she hopes it will affect my younger sister. You think I'm making it up, but I'm not. So if this job falls through and I have to go to Spokane, I'll be treated a long series of lectures on everything from how to format my resume to what sort of jobs I should look for. Hello.

I... have nothing sarcastic and mildy funny to say about this... This entire thing sort of reminds me of when I was bullied, everything you do is a Mortons Fork, if you hit back they get worse, if you dont it gets worse, if you tell the teachers it gets worse. Sadly you cant set elaborate death traps for your parents, like you can with annoying teenagers. Not that I did But I should have. So anyway I am trying to figure out that one Tenacious D Song, you know, the one with the title I literally cant write on this forum. Because, I dont know, funny song to know in case I ever need to serenade someone. Edited February 9, 2016 by Morzathoth
Orlion Blight he/him Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Are you going to order her favorite dish from Zanzibar? That's essential! 1

Because, I dont know, funny song to know in case I ever need to serenade someone. Pretty much. About a year ago, I decided to just stop trying to explain my side whenever we argued because no matter how polite and respectful I was, she always accused me of the opposite. So now I just take it in silence, accept fault for everything, and agree with everything she says. Now she accuses me of not caring about our relationship, and occasionally cries, because I "refuse to communicate" with her. And yes, I get many delightful lectures about how quickly my future husband will divorce me for doing that. (Little does she know, I lost interest in marriage and dating some time back. ) 1

(Little does she know, I lost interest in marriage and dating some time back. ) At least that conserves energy. It is pointless to argue with the crazies. Ahaha, her manipulations are failing~ Am I being sadistic now or is there something heartwarming in that? Like the villain getting what they deserve? ... I dont know why I got happy about that. I had a "Yes, someone is on my side!" reaction You dont need a husband, you have a pugband. Those are better.

I had a "Yes, someone is on my side!" reaction You dont need a husband, you have a pugband. Those are better. I don't know about heartwarming, but there's something satisfying about knowing that the only power she has over me now is circumstantial. I don't care about the things she threatens me with, I don't need her approval like I used to, I'm not afraid of her anymore...eh, call it heartwarming if you want. It sounds like the ending to an anti-bullying movie. And yes, Bruce is superior to a corny romance.

Good, I am not just sadistic XD Now she just needs to be caught in her own lies or something like that and will be a proper ending. Which reminds me... I used to hold joke weddings, usually against either participants will... *cough* Do you Twilyght of the Sansparkles tribe take Bruce of the Pug tribe to be your lawfully* wedded pugband and low him in barks and cuddles? Do you Bruce of the Pug tribe take Twilyght of the Sansparkles tribe to be your lawfully wedded huwife and love her in sleep and snuggles? *By the laws of Morzathoth. Laws subjected to change on my whims, but they should be reasonably safe for you. You may now snuggle the pug. Ah, this brings me back... 3

Delightful Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Late to the party here, is Turkey bacon made from Turkey? Thats theoretically kosher. I've also heard of people eating "Facon" but I'm rather scared to ask what it's made of. 1

I've also heard of people eating "Facon" but I'm rather scared to ask what it's made of. Yes, it's made from turkey. It's not bad, but I'm not a huge bacon fan, so I might be biased. "Facon," on the other hand, is usually tofu.
Seonid he/him Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Late to the party here, is Turkey bacon made from Turkey? Thats theoretically kosher. I've also heard of people eating "Facon" but I'm rather scared to ask what it's made of. That's why I recommended it to you. I don't know how guaranteed any particular brand of turkey bacon is to have been slaughtered/prepared in accordance with kosher guidelines, but I'm sure there has to be one out there somewhere. No idea if they sell one in Australia, though.

I don't know how guaranteed any particular brand of turkey bacon is to have been slaughtered/prepared in accordance with kosher guidelines, but I'm sure there has to be one out there somewhere. No idea if they sell one in Australia, though. There's someplace that manufactures just about everything in accordance with just about every guideline here in the States. You can find vegan cookies, gluten-free donuts, kosher everything. Even ham, if one frequently mocked newspaper ad is to be believed. (A store advertising their wares in a local paper showed a picture of a ham with the caption "Perfect for Chaunakah!" I don't think it was malicious so much as clueless.)
Delightful Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Hmm it's probably not available on Australia - not enough demand - but if I happen to stumble across any I might try it. What's hilarious is that every now and then you get kosher certified products like ham and cheese flavoured chips/crisps and it's just like whaaaat I know it's all chemicals and spices but still.
Kestrel she/her Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Highlights of the band concert - last band played Mmm whatcha say - my director and her fear of public speaking - a guy going up into the press box, turning on the light, and dabbing during our last song - the second band turning off the lights and basically just making three minutes worth of jungle noises - the top band director starting the last piece of music and then leaving the stage. the band was unconducted. - screaming pool noodles

(Says the woman who spent one spring break on band tour playing the 1812 Overture 3 times a day with a percussionist nicknamed "Hurricane" shooting blanks out of a rifle for the cannon fire.) 2
