You only get so many chances to do something good for someone you care about. One day you'll all be gone.

Too often I think people forget that's really how it goes. Life's too short to lose those chances to stress.

Can somebody explain cubicles to me?

You all cram into this big expensive building with all of these rules that basically mean "pretend the cubicle is all there is and bother nobody," right? You sit all day and try to focus in this loud ass space.

Why? At that point, everyone could be comfortably doing the same work at home without the cost/morale-hit of a big, shitty office environment.

If I ever become stupid rich, it will be my dream to build a vacuum tube computer that can run Crysis. That wing of my compound can also double as a homeless shelter for the whole tri-county in the wintertime.

It would probably have to be so big you could see it glowing from satellites.

The more I think about this, the more I really need for this to happen.

Two days in a row off is such a needed thing.

Up until a coupla years ago, most jobs I worked had the two off days spread across the week.

It seems okay, but I don't really feel recharged till Sunday. Gotta have that second day! You don't realize when you don't have it.

Welp, Windows update broke ASUS Aura. Getting Aura working last time required some registry changes and system stuff that probably just got changed back.

Until I decide that's how I want to spend my time, it's rainbow light show over here! Is that a new feature?

What kind or genre of music do you enjoy listening to the most?

I hope the day will come when pinterest disappears forever.

It's basically just spam in my google image results. It's everything that's bad about social media... in sheer mechanics and tactics.

Man... I'm on a 3-night streak of proper sleep and it is throwing me off. I feel... too human and I can't deal.

I've been stricken by insomnia since I hit puberty. At best, it's like constant low-grade intoxication. I would always romanticize the night to cope, so I feel a little at odds when I suddenly don't have that. Me with sleep ain't me at this point. It's bittersweet

I just popped into spotify (already open) and found it playing generic rap with the volume muted... on repeat. Time to change all my passwords again! Even though I've only ever seen this behavior with spotify. Annoying to overhaul just for that.

Bruh I know you're tryin to pop n shit but this is NOT how you get plays.

I drink anywhere from 2-4 cups of strong coffee per day. Or other times I'll have 2-3 energy drinks.

So why is it that when I drink ONE of any k-cup that I get jacked as all hell and feel like shit? I tell people this and it's like they don't believe me. They ruin me.

What are they putting in these things?

My god does sign on delivery suck. I work the entire time USPS drops off packages. And I work for the 4 HOURS they're open for pickup. In fact, I don't know anybody I trust enough who doesn't.

I don't get it. Sellers do it to protect themselves right? But why are they liable for the package after it's been confirmed as picked up by the carrier? They have no control over what happens after...

Haa, I just snapped my finger randomly (some weird tick I sometimes have when I'm concentrating) and it happened to line up right on time with a finger snap in the song I was listening to.

Never even heard the song, and it was the only snap. I barely noticed that I did it.

Should I try my luck at pool tonight? Heh.

So today, I got over to the folks to play the RF-82 ii's I got mom for Christmas.

I started to crank them and the high hats fell halfway out of the ceiling.

Dual 8-inch woofers were the right choice. Bad-ass. Can't believe they're only $600/pair.

I swear, t-shirt manufacturers don't believe in skinny people. I buy a pack of smalls and they're all like "OH SURRRRREEE you're a small *wink* we gotcha."

And then they make sure they fit me like a slutty club dress that's two sizes too big. Like I must be the last skinny person in America and everyone else is lying to themselves.

I made a really long youtube comment about love. Something came over me and I think I channeled something beautiful and inspiring that someone might need... something I think people could stand to see in the world. Something bigger than me. It was real. I felt it. And a lot of people would've saw it.

But youtube hung while posting and lost it forever... so now I'm trying very hard to stick to what I wrote <_<

I'm often fascinated by things happening in the world, but sometimes I have to be careful with politics and just... forming opinions.

It's like a mind virus, mann. Terrible ideas start to creep into your mind and ultimately you wind up subconsciously alienating yourself from different people... and you feel good about that.

And then you snap out of it and it's like "Where have I just been? What WAS that?"

So... I learned today that Wal-Mart registers will actually run out of memory and hard lock if there are too many items on a transaction. Can't do nothin with it.

I didn't know that was still possible lol

My favorite thing to see in comments is where someone makes a point that's obviously pure opinion and somebody has to point out that they forgot to say "IMO" on the end, as though not doing so is somehow dishonest or it being an opinion invalidates it.

Do people think that's a legit counter or something? Or just not know how conversations work? I see it all of the time in youtube comments.

Sigh... Thanksgiving nets me a 4-day weekend. I had a lot of different things I could've done with the time, but I crashed so hard I slept 12 hours every night. The bags under my eyes are almost gone, even! The skin is all tight and smooth... it's amazing.

Usually I'd feel guilty, but this time of year, being able to do that is a blessing. Can't stand holiday burnout.

All week, I've had a Ryzen 9 just sitting patiently on my desk, just teasing me. Tomorrow is finally the day! I'll deep-clean, update my bios, and see what happens. AGH THE SUSPENSE I CANNNNN'T...

I guess I better try to go to bed early so the boot fairy will come to bless my mobo.

Sometimes I have trouble staying motivated... trying to hold onto some semblance of hope for the world.

But then I remember that in just a few years, Gamestop will be but a distant memory for all of us here on planet Earth... I must outlive them.

I don't know why I'm so apprehensive in getting my 3900x on Tuesday when I already know I won't be dropping it in till next Saturday...

You know it's been a good day when you say to a friend "Do you keep backups? I have a backup..." and have it actually mean something, as well as be totally appropriate for the current situation.

No really, it should finish verifying soon - yesterday's C: drive backup. I'll run it before bed. While I'm busy attempting to enter tomorrow, my system drive will be trying to return to yesterday!

When your pee starts leaving the whole bathroom smelling like a fresh pot of coffee brewing, you know you're drinking too much coffee.

Oooof... set up a new 55' desk today. Which is awesome... but wow I now understand why you don't put studio monitors flat on the desk. The entire desk resonates and it sounds ROUGH. Oooo! I can feel it under my hands.

I see pictures of people doing this all of the time. Just wanna shake them and tell them how much money they're wasting!My LSR305's now sound like basic desktop speakers.
