My pc couldn't run games for longer than 30 minutes because it would make a lot of noise, overheat and turn off, even if the graphics were at the lowest possible. Took it to the store where I bought it, they cleaned it and added a new fan. Now it makes a little more noise when idle, but it doesn't get louder when I run games, even if I run them on high settings. This saved me some cash because I was considering upgrading parts, since it seemed like the pc couldn't run most games decently.

One good thing about being a hermit is that when you wake up looking like absolute dog crap, you don't have to see anybody.

Yes. :thumbup:

I have found, however, that being a hermit often means having no reason not to look like crap, and thus may lead to carelessness about one's appearance and general self-neglect. This is how I've come to so closely resemble a diseased vagrant being attacked about the throat by a mangy opossum. Constant seclusion leads to degradation, which forces greater seclusion, and around it goes 'til one's entire life swirls out the hole at the bottom of the pot. Or maybe that's just me. :idontknow:

I once heard someone say that vanity couldn't exist in a vacuum, and from my (own) experience, this is absolutely true, ha ha.

A few years ago women actually approached me, now they're as curt as can be. I've gone from being called "baby" to "shug" to "sir" which seems to be the declining scale of endearment from cashiers and waitresses, as your appearance slowly slides off the cliff. :bigsmile:

I know what you mean—I still can't get used to "sir." Wait 'til you get the senior discount a decade or more too early. That was a real poke to the ego. :eek:h:


ETA: We need an "I'm not old enough to be this old" thread. :D

I'm starting to crush over the same girl again. I got a crush on her in my last year of my bachelor's (about two years ago) but I never made a proper move (then again, it's not as easy here as is in most countries, but I won't get into that). Anyway, since I started my master's in September I've seen her around the faculty a couple of times, but I didn't feel anything. I thought I was over it. But then after a day out with a friend I crossed paths with her and she just stared at me with a surprised expression on her face. Since then I've started thinking about her more and more, and now I'm possibly at the same point I was two years ago.

The only reason I don't like this is because I don't know her at all. I've never even spoken to her, I don't know anything about her, so the only reason I'm crushing over her is because I think she's the cutest girl I've ever seen. I guess this feeling and the confidence I gained this year could push me into doing something about it if I ever see her again, but I'll have to keep reminding (and convincing) myself that all I want from this is a friendship or else I'll just freeze up or do something stupid.

Just had to get that out, I don't feel comfortable talking about it with any of my friends.

A great analogy for the global economic situation is that episode of the Twilight Zone where someone has the option to receive 1 million dollars if they push a button, knowing that doing so will cause someone somewhere to die.

You aren't wrong about that but it's like only a small group of elite people who get to push the buttons. The rest of us just have to live in the shit.

Friday was lame. I feel miles behind everyone else in this training at work. It's not just in my head; the instructor chatted with me afterwards about how I've been doing lately. He says that "I have it in me" and he's probably right. Still, I hate this nonsense.
