Post Whatever Thread

[CrashBang]

This thread is a brilliant idea. I demand more!

I confess that I can't stop boasting about being an almost fully qualified teacher. I am proud of me even though it's tough and getting me pretty down a lot of the time.

Spoiler: This is from Cancer Bats' incredible new album. DSOL.

It's my birthday next weekend and my girlfriend has stated that she has a present which will cause my head to explode multiple times. Awesome. I reckon it's something comic book related, like a giant poster or an amazing t-shirt or a collection of all of the Transmetropolitan trades which I don't yet own.

none of the comic book stroes in my area have #6...its the one I need right now (I prettymuch have all the rest)

I hate it here

You live in Aus, right? So that's about 239574957 times better than the UK so stop complaining! Also you can get them all off Amazon (used if you have to).

I'm going on 30 and I'm fucking depressed about it.

 

[Use_Imagination_here]

You know I had a long rant in my mind but in stead I'm just going to say that I fucking love life. Just about everything about it. Even the bad bits of life are vastly superior to not-life.

I love taking long showers I love video games I love movies I love books I love my friends and my girlfriend and my family and the way sand feels on my feet. I love everything.

Well except you. FUCK you.

Hmm...

I'm trying to figure out how I can derail a thread that has no set topic...

This shall be a challenge

...Perhaps the only way to derail a thread that has no set topic is to *le gasp* railroad it! Give the thread a set topic, thus derailing it. Also, then you can re-derail it.

On(?)-Topic: Also, I just got to York. What a lovely place I live in All around me I can see trees and birds and geese pecking at my window trying to get at my tea and biscuits.

Why do I have such a hard time finding motivation to do *anything*? I have the ability, yet I lack the will to make myself do it. I know what to do, but I will let the littlest things distract me and tell myself "Another time". People tell me I'm smart and when I apply myself I can do things, but...

This thread will become a journal of my complaints that I have nowhere else to put... At least while I'm sitting here thinking too much about what I do wrong instead of fixing it. Putting off the fixing for another time, because 12 AM isn't the time for it. But then, when do I ever find the time for fixing my bad habits? -__-

Wierd. I have the exact same problem. It's like no matter what I'm supposed to do, not doing is just a way more appealing option. Every time.
Geuss I'm just lazy.
It's funny cause its entirely self perpetuating. I'm lazy so I can't be bothered to do anything including getting myself motivated because I'm lazy. I think this is what they meant by a vicious circle.

You...

You're having problems getting...

Spoiler: Motivated?

You're welcome.

I... don't get it. But I am amused.

And distracted >__>

He is Vergil.

He likes to get motivated before he beats the shit out of his cocky prick of a brother.

Put a shirt on Dante, you douchebag.

I... see.

Devil May Cry reference or something? Never played the games.

Makes me think of the Inferno. I should read the entire Divine Comedy at some point.

You've never played Devil May Cry?

The hell.

I thought everyone had played at least one of those games.

I played a shitty PC port of DMC4.

It was...shit actually. Funny that.

I find it gets all the more vicious when my failures make me want to forget them. And how do I forget? More procrastination, trying to forget the whole issue altogether even if it's still salvageable. When I stop and notice I panic and want to just do something else.

It's actually not AS bad as it sounds, I avoid it some. But I'm tired and more prone to being dramatic.

I know exactly how that feels. You're not like secretly spying on me or something are you? It's uncanny. Maybe its more common than I thought. I don't know that thats better but...
The problem is that as much as I might to try to ignore it, its never going to fix itself. And what makes it worse is I know that. But that just makes me want to ignore it even more.

In one sense it's kind of nice to hear I'm not alone. In another sense I'm sorry to hear you've got to deal with the same unfortunate mentality and instincts that I have when it comes to these things XP

But yeah, you've described my feelings on it as well quite perfectly. And the thing is... so many times I wish for a reset button to try again, but I realize that I keep taking fresh opportunities and making the same mess. So if I had my desired reset button, would I do any better? Or would I waste my time again? I'm sorry to think it'll be the latter. Really need to try to deal with this. Like tomorrow. I really should try tomorrow because I'm always putting it off if I can.

Well, on the bright side we most likely have a lot of tommorows left. We'll probably get it right eventually. Just got to keep trying.

I wrote this today, me and a friend have just really been talking a lot about Mortal Engines lately:

Spoiler: Mortal Engines/copypasta related

Hey faggots,

My name is Tom, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, un-civilised anti-tractionists who spend every second of the day hugging trees and staying still. You are everything bad in the remains of the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any poonani? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of cities because of your own insecurities, but you all take it to a whole new tier. This is even worse than jerking off to a stalker.

Don't be a foreigner. Just hit me with your best battle-disc. I'm pretty much perfect. I wrote the best essay on identifying fake antiquities, and was apprentice in the historian's guild. What guilds are you a part of, other than "Violent hippy dip-shits"? I also met Thaddeus Valentine, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just gave me a scar-job; Shit was SO quid). You are all faggots who should just enter the sunless country. Thanks for listening.

Pic Related: It's me and my *****.

Now just imagine the following image:

inserted here with Tom and Hester from the books shopped in, because the job I did on Paint to go along with the jokes was too terrible for mortal eyes to gaze upon

Also, take a look at the following image:

Pretty handsome gent, right? It's actually an official image of Eddie Dean, a character from the Dark Tower series of books who's actually a heroin addict from '80s Brooklyn. I'm currently up to the second last book and only discovered this image the other day, actually the first time I've seen a rendition of the character. Truth be told, considering his background I was expecting less "Chiseled stallion of a man" and more "A fucking heroin junkie...from the age that fashionable attire forgot".

Hmmm...speaking of Eddie, I just want to get it out there that Eddie McGuire is the greatest showman that ever lived. I've been watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" pretty consistently in it's various incarnations for over a decade now, and by God if ever there was a man that could host a show it woud be him. My only gripe is that one time a question revolved around Transformers, and he misread "Decepticon" as "deception".

Think it's wierd that I'm praising an Australian tv personality in this whatever thread? I'll tell you what's wierd, when I was little I was afraid of Austin Powers. Yes, this guy:

scared the hell out of me once upon a time. I don't know what it was, the teeth, the association I had at the time between guns and things like invading soldiers, the fact that I caught a snippet of the movie on tv at the time and it depicted both Austin running over a man with a steam-roller and Austin being responsible for a man being decapitated by a shark. I even had this nightmare where Austin came into my preschool and held everyone hostage, fucking Austin Powers. Hell, I can also recall me and my family going up to Queensland to visit an uncle back when this fear was very active, and we went to Warner Brothers' Movieworld, an amusement park up there which has actors dressed up as Warner Bros' characters walking around the place, characters like Austin Powers. Fear fucking incarnate. Still, now I adore the movies (and actually own two of them on DVD).

Trying is the hard part >__<

Though seriously, life's been too easy on me. I keep passing all my classes with this same attitude. Gives me more time, but probably trains me to think I can get away with it forever.

Yeah. Who would've thought not having to work hard to do stuff well could be such a handicap. Ah well, no point blubbering about it all day, thats not going to help either.

Why is it, saying there is more than 1 way to skin a cat makes you wise .... yet saying you have found 312 ways to skin a cat makes you a psycho?

The reason women go for beauty over brains is because men can see better than they can think.

Ever noticed that these half naked women on social networking sites love taking pictures of their mirrors.

5 rules to be a happy bloke.

1. Find a woman who helps you out and occasionally cooks.
2. Find a woman who loves you just for who you are and has a great sense of humour.
3. Find a woman who trusts you and will do anything for you.
4. Find a woman who is fantastic in bed.

5. Make sure these 4 women never meet.
