'My conscious knows it's supposed to be OK to feel shitty. But whatever lies underneath isn't ready to accept that. Lately, I've been moving on some stuff, because my unconscious is tired of...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km40jvV5lhM My favorite too. :laughing:
I skimmed this... but what I just read is kind of shocking. This guy's behavior is COMPLETELY unprofessional. You're not being childish for saying so, and I recommend you do say so immediately, to...
Thank you, and thank you for sharing. I'm sorry you've gone through that, very unfortunate. For you, life has forced your hand. I'm glad you're making the best of it.
Thank you for sharing. I think one thing is true: it's scary how powerful perception is. It can literally change your life. If you don't mind me saying so, I'd say you shouldn't try to replace your...
I'm going to assume you don't mind comments. If you do, you will ignore, that's fine. This has been happening for years. It's obvious that she doesn't mind jerking you around. Giving her immense...
A lot of people prefer being called by something that isn't their full name/given name so politely correcting them is something that is always acceptable to do. This. I think you must have an...
You need to learn that the Dude abides, man.
I avoided a person I liked once, as that person was very popular. It definitely gave me some pull... my strategy was weird and interesting to that person, as I expected it would be. I got to go on a...
I'll tell you one tip, useful for verbal fights. If someone tries to one up you, tries to disrespect you, tries to embarrass you, or whatever, all you gotta do is look them in the eye, and say...
Wow. That's cold... but you're welcome :) Maybe you've got a point there. I'm usually stubborn but I'm just letting myself relax, and not really trying to change how I feel. Maybe this is the...
Nah, I don't have most of those symptoms. Various exogenous factors are more relevant to explain my current situation than ones originating from my psychological state. I appreciate that you brought...
I like Razare's advice. Easier said than done though. OP, I relate to your post as well. I'm going to work through my own thoughts here if you don't mind, I find doing it in public is somehow...
I am drifting. I'm in a lull at the moment, in between projects. A new one is coming soon at a specified date, a few months from now, and I'm excited to begin pursuing my professional goals again. I...
Basically, I choose not to think about it. It's completely out of my hands. When my family passes I will grieve. But not until that time.
You don't have to be scared. That will happen in all likelihood. Also, what do you think they are doing? Do you think they read a manual on how to be parents/whathaveyou? Don't worry about it....
Bon.
I'll give it one last try. I'm pretty sure I understand the motivation behind your statements, once I take into account your personal anecdotes/preferences you've stated in the thread. You want...
Wow, do I have a business already? You know I'm flying my corporate jet absolutely everywhere. Why does it matter how realistic it is? I threw it out as an unlikely possibility. Some people would...
I suppose you are right. However, I think the most surprising thing I have found in posting this in the INTJ sub-forum is that it appears that most who have chosen Option 1 appear (IMO) to be giving...
Simple rebuttal: Experiences are not quantifiable like money. Opportunity is fleeting, as is the world around you. In 7 years, a lot of chances will come and go. The assumption that all things will...
I'm taking the 4 hours... using the rest of the time to pursue other opportunities. I'll take the stiff job when I'm old and lacking in vitality.
I giggled. Yeah, I said it.
Oh gawd.

'One must imagine Sisyphus happy.'
What is the purpose in not asking it?
How can something which doesn't exist be healthy or unhealthy? ;p I would think more social people of any type are more likely to engage with higher frequency offline, and less frequency online. I...
I was thinking about traffic today, while in traffic, and realized something about the nature of traffic phase changes. In a free flowing environment, drivers are constantly passing slower...
You definitely opened my eyes with that story about the people who 'righteously' regulate faster drivers. Ugh, it still makes me feel gross.
Yeah, that's true enough. Maybe I will never get to see the efficient road of the future, but with time I'm sure it will become totally unheard of to actually drive your own car. Maybe even illegal?...
'Hold holy your highest hope. Do not throw away the hero in your soul.' -Nietzsche Words for all the road ragers to live by. Not to nitpick, but you can definitely shame/intimidate other drivers...
The thread has veered from highway flow efficiency into city planning, etc. Which is fine, the discussion is for the community as well. I don't think there's anything wrong with this, so long...
Dark Souls franchise. The standard PvE isn't that hard, but it's a lot harder than most videogames. I enjoy that. And the whole dark fantasy vibe.
My god... what absolute scum. I never considered that possibility. I will also try to live right next to work from now on. Not having to deal with scum is priceless. In the interim, I will apply a...
That's a cool set of graphics. And aye, that's certainly part of the problem (the other parts being human error and a lack of understanding regarding one's effect in the highway flow). An economic...
Just imagine tomorrow morning.
I was being hyperbolic. The personality is certainly canned at work relative to other times, in my experience. But as one gains experience, one learns what is and isn't appropriate to most people,...
This. But in nearly every endeavor, you'll have to work with others. Adopt the typical 'professional' personality for those times. Which is to say, don't have a personality. It sounds worse...
I think your observations are reversed. Being wanted does not necessarily denote worth, but worth can denote being wanted. Haha. As for me, I don't think relationships mean much at all to a lot of...
I was initially going to use this thread to whine about traffic. Instead, I went ahead and read up on Kerner's traffic model (you'd think this sort of research would be more heavily funded by...
Perception can be raised. It's really as simple as that. Hard work will help where natural proclivity fails. As will a cool mind in the heat of the moment.
Mighta felt something if I were a teenager.
I'd be a little pissed. Just ask again, you have nothing to lose.
Yes, perhaps that word 'cowardly' was too much.
I think casual sex/open relationships/polygamy are a waste of my time. I have always intuitively felt this way, it's not what I want. I think maybe some people are not suited for a monogamous...
No. This is the kind of situation that is a waste of your time and emotional energy. You're 19. Learn to yield, that is, to not care. They are one in the same. But yes, as others note, you shouldn't...
I always thought cooperation was the best type of interaction... providing help, while helping yourself, working towards a common set of goals. I find it interesting that self interest is somehow at...
I don't use search, who has time for that? Give me a hug, bro.
I usually wear glasses. For some time, I decided to wear sunglasses instead. I couldn't see people, I only saw shapes, beautifully tinted shapes. I couldn't see their faces, unless I got very close....'
