Why the hell is there always a bunch of racists in the comments of my favorite air crash investigation YouTube channel? It's like these people live in a fantasy world where everyone good or smart is white, and everyone that's clearly not is secretly Aryan. =_=

That comment doesn't seem all that racist. Though I don't know the context >_<

Ahh, nothing like waking up in the morning to hear your mom badmouthing you on the phone. Sometimes I wonder if they'd prefer I just disappeared all of a sudden.

When you can, just move out unannounced~

Aye, bad choice of image. And truth be told, these folks are just an abhorrent minority. Most people are either aviation veterans, former flight crew, or simply there to give their condolences. It's quite nice. ^^

Admittedly, the amount of time it took me to work out what they meant by "left-side bell curvers" left me wondering if I'm perhaps also one ^_^'

Man, my brother has become such a whiny brat as of late. It's bad enough how he constantly wakes up my mom for "sleeping too loud" (Karma's a bitch, ain't it?), but two days ago he made me and her empty my entire bookshelf in search of a video game we've never owned. And after I picked him up from school yesterday, I decided I'd make a quick detour to the pharmacy, right? We were there for less than ten minutes, halfway through the line, when he starts screaming in my ear to go home. As a result, I had to spend last night with only half my usual painkillers. Owwww... >﹏<

I realize he's low-functioning, but there comes a point when concessions should be withdrawn. Swear, I'm never havin' kids. =_=

Aww what a shame, because I think you'd be a wonderful mother :')

UPS must've have a bad annual habit of sending in their inexperienced first-year drivers trying to deliver our holiday stuff on time, relying exclusively on their GPS tracking since we're near a mountain. Perhaps alternative methods of delivery might be the only solution. Amazon's and other companies have no problem with it whatsoever.

Oh my stars... Are you serious, love? You can't imagine how much that means to me, thank you so much...

I'll admit, it's something that's been crossing my mind more often lately. I've made a habit out of offering counsel to my younger friends with bad parents, and sometimes I'll lament how they couldn't be mine. Then I'll find artwork or talk to my friend who's happily married, and all sounds nearly perfect.

And yet, it's hard for me to imagine things will turn out well. Especially when everyone in my family, couples and kids, are either incredibly miserable, depressed, or divorced. I know it's best not to take examples from people who don't believe in therapy and bark at me when I try to help, but it's hard when they're the only folks I'm close to IRL. >_<

Still... a gal's gotta dream, right? c:

Ehh... I'd rather a company treat its workers like human beings than have a fast package. Most of the time, at least. ^_^'

I'm with you on this one. Amazon might be convenient, but they sure as hell don't play nice with the rules.

But now that they've banned bathroom breaks, I can get my crap delivered on the same day in some places!

The place I got my glasses done seem to have given me two different lens types, as the right lens is now scratched up like mad. So it constantly feels like the lenses are dirty ;_;

aww, seems like you should get it replaced then, something you're seeing out of every day should be perfect!

I probably should, but I don't really want the faff~

There's no way we can propose getting rid of leetspeak, its part of the internet language when it was first built and turned on, without it, we might be destroying internet pop culture and have billions of people peeving at us. Do we really want that to happen, I wouldn't even think so, let alone the big regimes of today.

Let no country or overzealous anti-internet group take away internet democracy beginning this decade. #Protect the Leets

A rather silly one, but it bothers me when people don't complete idioms. "When in Rome"...

It's fine when you know the rest, but most of the time I don't, and I have no idea what the other person's talking about anymore.

Interesting... So if I said "something-something, broken clocks", or "you know what they say about looking a gift horse in the mouth", you'd have to go look it up?

Not trying to make fun or anything. I just don't wanna annoy my bestie. <3

Well, I'd have to look up the broken clocks one (unless you're referring to the one about broken clocks being right twice a day). I actually didn't know there was anything more to the gift horse one >.<

I don't think it's really right to call it a pet peeve, I guess. And it's not so bad in text, since looking up doesn't break the flow of the conversation or anything~

Remembering things I done in the past that at the time didn't think would of hurt someone I was fond of
