) engaged to another man, came in aglow. I ask "Why the big smile?" The reply; "I've just been given a date for my wedding!".Right, that's emptied the thread then...
I am here to moan as i am no longer capable of doing so in real life. Last term my few moans were so oft repeated, twisted and referred to that it became a stick to beat me with. This year I have not moaned at all in public, but boy do i have lots of crap to vent.
What better place than the flameboard?
Firstly, I am sick of the company of idiots.
At lunch today with m'esteemed classmates the primary topic of conversation was an Arab classmate (not present) along the lines of "Yeah, he really talks funny, doesn't he. He like doesn't understand a word you say to him!" (laughter and "Yeah!"s follow) He also drew mocking remarks for his beard and clothing, both religiously-based. I just sat there with a face like thunder, looking around to try and spot at least SOMEONE else in the group who was offended. Nope.
I am also pissed off with people in my hall, (see past threads), whose barbarian nature wouldn't be out of place during the Sack of Rome.
I also have now been landed with a team project to work on. This involves writing a huge volume of words on some obscure scientific topic. Doing a solo one would be hard enough, but I am composing it jointly with a brace of morons who will do sweet F.A. until 1 day to deadline, and then accuse me of not pulling my weight for refusing to stay up all night to finish it. I've seen this happen before.
And on a genrally despairing-for-humanity note, I recently tried engaging in some CON-VER-SA-TION with what I took for one of the more respectable of my classmates. I asked if he was religious, or if he ever considered "meaning of life" stuff. "nah, not really,",came the reply. These people exist only to arse around the world, use up valuable air, food, etc. and make life unpleasant for the fraction of the populace who ARE decent human beings.
The far future is going to be magnificent of course...
but the more direct future is going to SUCK.

And to throw another log onto the bonfire of the vanities:
Today the girl I am crazy about, but who is (bafflingly ) engaged to another man, came in aglow. I ask "Why the big smile?" The reply; "I've just been given a date for my wedding!".
My reaction? Recall "The Enemy Within"... and Evil Kirk's reaction to getting a neck pinch. He pretty much expressed my feelings at that point.

Besides, can you imagine Monty in that repressed atmosphere that the US creates around alcohol. As a Scot, it'd drive him mad in 3 seconds.

First, NEVER do a group project if there's ANY possible way to get out of it. That is, unless the project is done at your own and the others' initiative.
Secondly, women are evil. But so am I. This explains why so many of my close friends through life have been women. (But not why I got little or no tail from any of them.)
Lastly...
Oh, I forget. There was a brilliant thesis I was going to write here, but it's escaped me. I haven't slept since Sunday.

and it's no big deal. My hall has a computer room open all night, except when closed for private masturbation-online sessions for other inmates. I just wander in, out-of my skull and start typing crap before losing focus and going off to besd giggling like a Prescott.
