The Unofficial Official Chat Thread

The dress code at my workplace is: “Street casual–no excessive skin showing, nothing offensive”. Beyond that, it’s pretty much anything goes.

wear shoes that don’t cost you your toes

Wearing your own clothes makes everything better.

EVERYTHING.

Yeah but you know whats better than wearing your own clothes?

No clothes.

Nice to see all you people still about and well :slight_smile:

I’m still banned from group chat so, forums will do fine.

Got into the Phoenix ComiCon Rave last night using a piece of red string and a clever excuse.

Never Gonna Give You Up was the last song of the night.

Did the clever excuse involve strangulation?

“Lost it” does wonders.

I just got to school and my usual workspace was occupied by someone else…
I knew this guy spent some time at the gym, but I can’t help to notice that he seems to be one of those who go there “just because”. Well, either that or he’s aiming for something I can’t see.
He seems to only do bench presses, biceps curls and spending time on the treadmill(You know, “the cool stuff”). His triceps are not evolved and his shoulders are tiny, making his whole upper arms look deformed.

I can’t stress enough how stupid of a decision this is, since your joints will suffer from unnecessary stress caused by some muscles being significant stronger than others.

…And no, I won’t tell him. Going up to a guy you’ve pretty much never spoken to and doing remarks at his muscles can definitely send the wrong vibes.

Random fact- when stacked from the floor up, my sixth generation gaming purchases are almost six feet tall.

Poke it

Since people have been exposing their souls on these forums lately, I figure I should too, because I need to vent this somewhere and for some reason I thought of this place first.

I’m an eternal doubter, a doomthinker. I have the talent to spot slight changes in normal routines and then start thinking of various outrageous reasons why that change might have occurred.

Over time I have learned to “control” it and these days it only really gets me when I start caring about something or someone. Which is happening right now.

I’ve been with my girlfriend for 2 months now (we have already been together for a year about 7 years ago). Everything is going fine, we’ve had no fights, we talk a lot about personal things, we don’t shut each other out.

But every now and then, for like a day, I get this fucking annoying feeling that something is not right, like now… We spent the whole weekend together, did fun stuff, had a great time. This morning I had to get to work, we kissed, I said “love you!”, and she said “too!” and she kissed me again. And that did it. That “too!” fucking did it.

I don’t know why, but that “too” changed my feeling of joy into one of uncertainty. Maybe it was the way she said it, maybe it was the speed she said it, maybe it was because that was all she said, I really have no idea. But it made me feel blaaargh. Now various thoughts are racing through my head. Thoughts like “she doesn’t love me anymore” or “she has another one” or “she’s unhappy” or “she doesn’t like my new shoes” (yes, really).

We have talked about this a lot in the past, so she knows I doubt a lot and I can surely talk to her about it again if I see her tonight and it’s all fine… But I’m just tired of having these doubts for no reason at all.

Feel you man. I’m a lot like this too. I’m very insecure about girls because I don’t consider myself so great, like I don’t think I look so good or I’m definitely not the most funny, stuff like that. And I always thought wondered why she’d stay with me, there’s plenty other guys around that are much better.

So everytime I noticed that something was different, I’d start questioning myself. But thenI read something on Reddit that acutally helped me. A lot. Especially the third post, by picklepistols. I don’t know if it will help you, but I hope it does.

that’s a downward spiral. get your shit in control or they will leave you. they can sense when you’re feeling insecure and it is entirely up to you to figure out your priority in their life. If you don’t feel like you’re good enough for them, either fix it so you are or leave.

seriously, doubting yourself is the absolute worst thing that can happen in a relationship.

I am confident about my life in my head but, for some reason females can sense “insecurity” from miles away and they’ve been avoiding me for as long as I can remember.

No I am not looking for advice, thanks.

i already gave all my advice up there ^

take it or leave it

Grow a spine never go on reddit and you’re pretty much guaranteed a pleasant life

Reddit… That’s the one with the sticks, right?

Some Egyptian should go to China and deface something of value in there.

HA and people think Americans are asshole tourists.
