The Flood / Re: Polyamorous relationships are fucking retarded
« on: March 24, 2016, 10:53:13 AM »
Poly relationshsips just make me sad. Here you have one asshole taking up multiple people and I've not ever managed anybody once in my lifespan.

If I go way back though, I think you opted for poligamy, Midget. Which is basically the same thing as polymarous, just without everybody being wives.

well, my parents have officially disowned me and my sister, we are now legally no longer a part of the family, on top of my parents fucking hating us, all the people I have known for almost 30 years just cut out, never seeing them again. drive home was fucking hard, 7 or 8 times I just wanted to slam the fucking gas and turn left just to see what would happen.
Wait, that's actually something you can legally do?
they can legally in the way of a restraining order, and they're friends with the judge, so now both me, my sister, and our families can no longer be within 200 ft of my parents. they also removed all visitation rights, and both of us from their wills
Damn...
I'm sorry to hear that.
honestly the hardest thing was that we can't be at family gatherings, or even meet up with anyone in the family anymore, my mom and dad have an iron grip and will on the family, and how they percieve us now. my parents can go fuck themselves for all I care, but my uncles, my aunts, my cousins, Im gonna miss em.

Can I ask why they disowned you?
My sister is a massive faggot, and my parents are hardcore family oriented, bible thumping christians, and when they found out, they cut her off while she was and still is in college, leaving her and her soon to be wife 10k in debt and homeless. Being that she's my fucking sister; I helped her out, by giving her a place ro stay and some money so she can pay her bills till they get back on heir feet. That apparently is a big no no in their eyes, and they decided that I am also no longer a part of the family.

That rings a bell now. Stuff earlier in the year.

I'm not one for family feuds. I'm used to just cutting off whatever metaphorical limb bad folks belonged on and going my own way. But I might make a reccommendation. Keep in touch with the relatives who do still get along with you. It's the age of interent after all. Discreet communication is possible.

I've changed a tad over the years though. If I were you, I would make a fuss over things. Bring the issue to light with communities friendly around your sister. Don't let em get away with their bullshit and walk over you, even if they are family. Turn the tables on them.

You're doing the right move though.
alright, Ill take a whack at it, thanks for the advice dude.

I know it's not nice sentiment wise. Think about it. Having to skirt around under your parents with other relatives who do care about you guys, or even just raising a fuss with your parents. Even to me despite being tired of putting up with crap, the notion of it doesn't make me feel any better.

You know, if I knew the right way to word things, and you asked me to, I'd call your folks up and either give them an earful of shit or talk to them. Then give them an earful of shit.

Have you thought of trying any alternatives in addition to your treatments?  Are you open to them?

Trust me. I've gone over everything. I've spent months in discussion with every type of doc under the sun and gone over it again and again to the point that I'd just like them to ease off on me.  And if you're talking drugs that aren't medical related, no matey. I don't have those options. And I'd be reluctant to try them anyway.

sorry to hear about it, but stop talkin bout "If you make it" you'll make it, so long as you don't give in and let what you've got keep you down, just like my grandad, with 5 brain tumours he lived a full year and a half after what the doc gave him to live, and that crazy son of a bitch never stopped, he kept working on his drawings, and kept going out for dinner with the family, and still kept going to see my sister born.

you've just got to keep being positive, you've officially hit the end of he road, might as well go out in a blaze of glory rather than a whisper in the wind.


I still work and do my jobs and this and that. But I can't keep up. I get out of breath and spent right away. And if I get hurt, it's a serious problem. My blood's losing the ability to clot and I'm healing worse than a senile old fuck. If I catch a cold it will kill me since all my other functions are plummetting now. I am positive, for the most part. I haven't let it stop me from doing me. But I have to be realistic. This is not something I'm going to walk away from.

I'm trying, and going to try and see how long I can go for. But I know when I'm done matey. In roughly four months alone I've gone from peak health to something much worse. I've spent two months under drugs to help and even then all they can do is slow it. I can't handle the heavy duty procedures neccessary to actually deal with this.

All I've got left is just doing me. That's the best I can do.

Give the nerds at Nasa some thinking time and crack a whip and say "money" as you point at corporations and then to the asteroid fields in our system, and those two will find a way.
That operation would require technology and resources that aren't practical whatsoever to send to Europa right now. It's not happening any time soon, and it's not as simple as just "Well NASA people are smart, they can figure it out if you give them a lot of money." There are a ton of challenges associated with pulling off something like this.

Wrong page. My bad. I thought you were talking about my mentioning of asteroids and passerby comets.

Good luck drilling through miles of ice as hard as granite.

That's what a skeptic told me when I worked on a roof one day. "Lul good luck cutting away 15 years of tar tiles and removing them!"

That's when I got to show off my super special equipment. A heavy industrial saw with diamond grained tips.

The Flood / Re: I have seen the light, and now agree with Verb
« on: March 23, 2016, 08:13:38 PM »
I remember reading into a study some years back, about what makes people tick. Or, for short, why some people are successful, and others are not. And there was one case that stuck with me. Two seperate people were asked the same question.

These two seperate people came from a shitty family, abusive fathers, and a shitty, slummy neighborhood. Almost the exact same childhood parameters. The question posed to both of them was, "Why are you where you're at in life right now?"

The poor, drug dealing guy behind bars said, "Because that's how I was raised. What other way was there if that's all I was taught?"

The successful businessman said, "Because that's what I grew up in. I had no other choice because I didn't want to be what my father was."

Two shitty families. Two shitty neighborhoods and two shitty childhoods. Yet different results.

Now, does this neccessarily excuse all kids being born into bad ways? No, it certainly doesn't. However, there are people who choose to overcome what they were given and end up leading good lives because of it. And that's why I don't take a hardline stance on not having kids completely. I completely agree that if you're a shit parent and that you can't provide for your children, you shouldn't have them in the first place.

And yet, there's the people who come through bad upbringings. Some might have their scars along the way. But in the end, they learn to reject what they started as. They go after something better that makes them happy in life. And they eventually grow to wade through their past and put it to rest behind them as they move forwards.

Like I said. It certainly doesn't excuse shitty parents from making kids. But it's something to think about.

Scientists recently discovered that cats suffer no seperation anxiety.

That means if you fell down the stairs and died right there your cat wouldn't give a fuck.

Unless you're crying your eyes out, cats really never give a shit.

Depends on the cat though. There's the really rare special kind that's smarter than the rest. They'd be the kind of cats defending their owners from shit or making a fuss and waking people up when there's a house fire.

Reach NSZB is better than Halo 3.
it has a higher skillcap but it isnt better per se. h3 still had much better maps and a healthier weapon sandbox. the dmr was rly bad for sandbox balance and never should have been a starting weapon

DMR shouldn't even be in the game.

Regulate expressly long range weapons to power weapons alone and keep the common starters close to mid-range.
