OK, where's the "what might drive you totally batfuckingshit Insane but there's a small chance it might be useful so you can't totally deep 666 it?" thread?

Unleash them, they are adults now........

OK, I know this isn't my first rodeo and it seems maybe I'm almost unique in that.....but I swear I wasn't like this two years ago and wouldn't have been even if there was such a forum.....

"ooh here's a great website that says you don't need to buy EVERYTHING on the dorm supply suggested list, unlike the elementary school supply list"
"Oh wow, great find ....but I'm still going to buy everything, even though my son doesn't want me to......"

2) Take a wild freaking guess......
3) sweet baby cheesewhizzz, did you adopt him?


......and at least 4 people replied "pass". So far. Because they had to be the ones to answer, they knew the answer, no need to waste time reading other people's answers.... or something?

You need to go into the past and not have done that. They will make you crazier than they are making their kids.

here I go quoting myself again. Someone actually wrote pretty much this in the forum and all hell has broken loose

I've sleeping w/the stereo on just barely loud enough to hear for over a year now.

This morning around daylight I was lying there, trying not to get up, and successfully predicted the next song on the radio. Twice. Within ten minutes.

The first one was Back In Black, then I predicted Whole Lotta Love a couple songs later.

What's mildly irritating you today?

Wrens. Right outside the living room window.

How can so much sound (I started to call it noise, but, it's not quite noise, yet) come out of such a small package?

I was cleaning some wine glasses that got dirty because they are in a kitchen cabinet I built but haven't yet made the glass panel doors so they tend to pick up cooking grease fumes and get dirty. With company coming next week I figured I would clean them. I was scrubbing one out and actually thought to myself that I might be pushing a bit hard on the thin glass when BANG! the glass broke with my hand inside. Got a nasty gash on my pinky finger. I washed it well and it bled like a MF but I eventually got it bandaged and I guess I'll check it in the morning.

Why is it that band aid packaging is so fucking hard to open. I mean half the time you are doing it with a bleeding body part and are one handed. Crazy.

Angry When people dont take care of things.....

I found 7 78s (records) today (All "18 TOP HITS") -- All of them were garbage (Bumps in them,noisy,etc (Not very playable)) -- I really hate people who dont take care of this beautiful analog stuff and then bring it to salvation army in shit condition.....

I was all exicted that i found that many "18 top hits" 78s @ once only to find they were all crap..... I THREW THEM OUT,I WONT DO THE SAME THING TO OTHERS!!

Im listening to the ones I got 2 years ago that thankfully are in excellent condition......

People suck!!

official graduation/diploma ceremony photo(s) of Hector are shite There's only 1, with the principal, no individuals and there's a great white blob on his head. There was a power cut, but still....

Sorry Pi, that's a kick in the pants.


I'm assuming monsters inc has unofficial shots?
