Yes when you have to put the gas cans in the fucking car and the other people are too stupid to understand that. 
edit: I can tell my irl friends are annoyed by my anxiety...

this actually upsets and depresses me
no one wants to baby sit someone that has these kinds of problems, so I understand... it just hurts a lot.I know I'm not myself lately and people have started to notice. It feels like soon I won't have any friends left.

Is there such a thing as 'knowing what the fuck you're doing' in L4D?It's basically run around the obstacle course and shoot anything that moves.

Probably not, as I called him much MUCH worse during that argument.

Being my bro's witness and standing at his side means that I'll have to dress up and pretty myself up (or at least try to), as in: wearing a dress, cute heels and make-up, and going to have my hair done.
I would be excited and cheerful if not for the fact that every time I stop at a boutique's window or go inside any shop, there's this voice repeating "What are you doing here? You don't fit here" like a mantra, and it doesn't stop until I start walking again or get out form there.
I think I have a problem ._____.

I know how you feel, when I got married I felt an immense pressure to 'pretty' up, but it just isn't me. I like wearing makeup and arsing about with my hair, but I'm not really into the whole 'feminine' thing. I feel like you have to be some sort of sylph to look feminine feminine, and that just isnt me, I just end up looking like a pantomime dame
In the end I think I did a decent job of passing myself off as a girl, though I wasn't exactly 'radiant'
Its worse for you, because it isn't you who is getting hitched, so you end up having to dance to someone elses tune. I'm sure you'll look lovely though

Fool's Gold hasn't felt like itself for several years. A few years ago some people from another board started posting there, which, okay, fine. Unfortunately, they tended to be way more abrasive than the rest of the member base, to the point where it slowly but completely changed the atmosphere of the place. However, it was a slow process. Know the adage how if you gradually turn the water temperature up to boiling the frog won't jump out? That's what happened. However, gradually the older members felt less inclined to post there, and most of them stopped posting. The ones who stayed stopped posting anything of particular substance, mostly throwing out half-assed one-liners and hiding in the metaphorical shadows. Activity crawled to a standstill. Furthermore, whenever one of the staff would do anything to attempt to counteract the constant stream of negativity it would unleash a gigantic shit storm, which basically resulted in staff being extremely averse to banning anyone.
A couple of weeks ago one of the veterans unleashed a pretty big rant about the state of the place and it made me realise that I'm not even remotely proud of its current state. I haven't invited anyone there for a long time because I've subconsciously known it's not the sort of place anyone I would want to invite somewhere would want to post. I'm not surprised people from FCF and ACF couldn't integrate there; by the time they were likely to have any motivation to want a new forum, it was in a dismal state. So I brought up the idea of starting to clean the place up, and most of the staff were on board.
The member who is probably the most frequently inflammatory (who stated he was glad people were blaming him for the reduced activity and "Fuck this site" to boot) recently posted an insult about a person's appearance in a member's welcome back thread. He swears his insult was directed at another member with whom he's on good terms, but the problem is that it made no sense as a response to that member's post, he has a history of dishonesty, and he has a history of demeaning women's appearance. So he was banned. Predictably, a shit storm erupted. I simply do not have the patience to deal with this crap right now; I am far too stressed out. If I were to address every complaint at length as is my usual tendency in dealing with message board drama I would end up insulting half the board, which would undermine the atmosphere of civility we want to restore. So that's not an option. Moreover, if I were to address every complaint at length I would get tired of it really quickly, and it would reinforce my aversion to banning people who deserve it because I would associate the huge amount of trouble it brought about with the banning. This simply isn't an acceptable option.
So I've had to do something I haven't done in years, which is to close down discussion. I have simply indicated that I will delete any further argument about it. I hate doing this, because it feels unnecessarily dictatorial and I'm not even sure it's going to work. But the old approach certainly wasn't working either. Like I said, I wouldn't want to invite anyone there in its current state. If I'm not proud of my own message board then a dire shift in methodology is needed.
I am actually halfway tempted just to permaban the troublemakers and leave it at that, but I'm not quite that desperate yet.
I don't know why anyone who isn't a masochist would want to staff a message board, much less own one. No matter what you do you end up alienating too many people, and you're usually personally blamed for everything that goes wrong.

also: fuck you insomnia, I have been up since 6:45 am this morning, and have had less than eight hours of sleep over the past two days; I should not be having trouble getting to sleep. Ugh I'm going to be a damn zombie at work, and given the huge shipment they got on Tuesday it's probably going to be hellish.

While having my mother at the hospital, my damn brother wasn't even able to keep his own health in check. He has bad hapits like going outside wearing too few clothes, or sleeping with his window open in the middle of october. Usually my parents would stop him from doing that, but since he pretty much ignores everything I say, I wasn't able to stop him from being an idiot, even going so far as to tell him if he got ill, that would be a problem for everyone.
Well guess what? It's 9am and I'm waiting after having called the doctor because he's fucking ill. And I may have to take him to the hospital too. This is like, seriously, does anyone even care about what happens with me? My fucking life has been miserable enough for the last month, and nobody cares if it gets worse. I have a shitload of job because my brother already refused to help with the cleaning and every other chore, and now on top of that I have this. So I now have a lot of work, I'll have to take care of a sick person and won't be able to even go outside and forget about my shitty life by being with friends.
I mean, of course I want to take care of him because he's my brother and I care for his well-being but shit. I told him he'd get ill, and he still even listen to me. This is so fucked up. I'm the most pissed off I can remember being for the last months. This is absolutely ridiculous.

@Octo: Thank you! It's not that I feel pressure to pretty myself up, I want to look pretty. It's just that whenever I gaze at anything "feminine" I get overwhelmed by a sense of futility. The big day won't be until April, so I guess I still have time to smack myself until I stop thinking like that, lol!
@Alex: I know it might be difficult to do, but it would be a good chance to say to your brother that, if he feels adult enough to shag a girl, then he's adult enough to take care of himself. I'd leave everything prepared for him in case he needed something (blankets, some broth, medicines), and then I'd go to hang around with my friends. Do that just once if it makes you feel bad about your brother, but he has to understand that he can't take you for granted. You have more than enough shit on your plate right now. Start looking for yourself or you will snap real bad some day.

*incompetence - people incapable of performing basic tasks, people that screw up consistently and need to be told things over and over again
*ingorance - willful or otherwise, people who disregard other people's feelings or opinions, people who expect nothing to be wrong after they do something inconsiderate (or don't even realize they're being inconsiderate), people that don't know how to read very obvious body language
*incessancy - people who just don't go away, people who feel the need to give you a play-by-play of their life (ie: I don't need to know that you're going to the bathroom, just fucking go)
*unimportance - the fact that I am so uneeded and could basically disappear and it wouldn't change anything at all
*lack of time - not enough time to do anything, anything!
*uninterest - nothing interests me anymore, I'm constantly bored even when there are plenty of things to do. I hate the things that do interest me anyway. I want to be interested in normal things that I'm supposed to be interested in.
*loneliness - or being left out. Just not important or interesting enough to hang out with. Or embarrassing to be seen with. Or just too weird. Or annoying. I wish I was just the same as the people around me so they'd want to be with me, and we'd have things to talk about.

Don't worry, Revelations in two weeks.
This so much.
It's times like these I wish I lived closer to the lot of you. I would want to see you every single damn day. I'D LOVE TO ROOM MATE WITH YOU GAIZ ACTUALLY. YOU ME SAMI AND AUDI wouldn't that just be the team of champions?
Loneliness sucks. It effects more heavily than people think. Usually people brush it off as a minor thing everyone feels sometimes but when you feel that way constantly it just plain sucks. Especially when the people you live with do it to you too. *hugs* But I assure you that you are not annoying or weird, it's everyone else that's fucked in the head 'cause your type of person is rare. A genuine person that's funny, awesome, smart, and trying to make it in the world. Don't let the losers around you get you down bb. <3 SOME DAY I'LL VISIT YOU AND WE'LL HAVE THE BEST PARTY EVER. And guess what no one around you is invited lol.
Maybe we really all should move to New York... xD
