Random Fail: First World Problems

[Tokitoki]

I got a spam email from my mom's old yahoo account last week. Considering she passed in 2013 I don't think I'll be opening that email.

Yikes, that's such an eerie feeling. I was writing to my great aunt from Kuwait while I was deployed and I always received responses (god, she was so thrilled to hear from me, it still makes me smile to this day to think about how happy she was to have someone to talk to, even via letters) ... I found out she died pretty much the day it happened, and then I received a letter from her about three weeks later, thanks to the ultra-slow mail system while on deployment. I knew she had written it before she passed, but it was just such an odd feeling, receiving that when I did.

Supposed to rain yesterday... it doesn't. Go to ride to work today not raining yay. Starts pouring half way thru. Then of course a city bus has to drive by me illegally close to splash me some. It of course stopped shortly after I got to work

my mom passed when i was 6, and i ponder what she would think abut the decisions i make, daily. As for overwatch, im having a blast with it; you fuckers need to stop being lame and befriend someone that works for blizzard that can get you into all of the betas.

When did Diablo 2 come out? They stopped making good games way back then... why would I care to do that?
Random fail is thinking Blizzard is good nowadays.

Good can vary. Diablo 3 sucked when it came out, it's been improved significantly and I've gotten my money's worth. World of Warcraft was very much a fun game, and I met my wife to boot. Overwatch is more fun than I've had with any shooter since before CS 1.5

Sounds similar to the muscle spasm I occasionally get in my calf (which especially sucks when I jolt awake in immense pain). If it's just a muscle spasm, finding the right motion to stretch it out before it completely locks up should be helpful. No idea what that would be though. I've heard better hydration and potassium intake (eat those bananas) is also helpful for reducing frequency.

You're talking about charlie horses. I get those, too. I am a pro about stopping the pain on those because I used to get them almost nightly when pregnant. That pain sucks, too, but it's different than the pain in my head/neck.

Stress, I get it in my shoulder too. I thought it was something related to work because I was feeling it about an hour into work. I tried to change up things and consciously not use my right shoulder as much and it was still causing me pain until I went home. Then they transferred one guy out of my group and we started hitting our goals and I stopped having pain. So think about what you are doing when it starts happening it will likely be stress related if they can't find structural damage.

Possible. However, I've gotten them even when I'd be playing with toys as a little kid. I doubt I was stressed then. Stress may increase the frequency though.

Does it happen randomly, or like right after you wake up? Kind of sounds like a pinched nerve so maybe you are sleeping strange and setting it off.

Completely randomly. Never at night.

I actually would say it's usually when I am sitting around doing random shit. I, thankfully, have never had it when driving (and driving stresses me the fuck out), or while at work. Usually at home when on the computer, or watching tv or some shit.

Good thing Team Fortress came out a year before diablo 2.

I've been out of my apartment since 7:30 this morning and only now did our professor email us for our 3:30 class that we don't have to bring our books today. It's not that heavy, but it would have been nice to have a day off from carrying it around campus.

I salute you as the winner of the thread.

I gotta concur this. Simply because I half expect Aks to respond in some way that is supa defensive, but that's the epitome of this thread. It's a good fail. Fuck heavy backpacks man.

Speaking of inconsiderate professors; try getting up at 5:30 for a 7am class, getting there, waiting 20 minutes after class is about to start, then everyone getting an email that class would be cancelled. I hated that fucker.

3 stitches in the back of my head due to a pretty epic fail today.

Showering before work, decided it wasn't hot enough so I turned up the water. Except I turned the dial the wrong way and got ice cold water.

I jumped, slipped/fell hitting my head on the faucet.

Fun times explaining that to the nurse.

Oh that shit is the fucking worst. I live pretty far away from campus so it really sucks to get all the way here only to have to turn around.

in high school i was doing PSEO at the local community college, but wasnt putting any effort into it. got there, class cancelled, decided to take a nap in my car until my next class. ended up sleeping through it. realized no one who cared would know. and thats how i started skipping class on a regular basis.

This sucks. I still feel like shit and have to be up and out the door tomorrow morning at 5am to drive to Washington Courthouse, Oh for a battery clinic.
