Random Win: The irl Fuck Ya thread

[TheDirtyHobo]

The cop-out answer is to say both are correct. I mean, you can look at all sorts of survivor stories of people that go through some destructive fucking things, both physically and psychologically violent, and come out more or less in tact. But a couple mg of something like snake venom from a bite on the foot can kill someone, no questions asked.

[BaneTheBrawler]

Not really a cop-out. The human body is incredibly robust and adaptable. Particularly to trauma. And, indeed, when those cascade failures happen, they often still aren't enough to kill us. Because we're resilient bastards. But those cascades still happen, which is why I said it's a delicately balanced machine, not generally delicate.

[Churchill]

sleep deprivation fucks with all sorts of shit. would not be surprised at all if it were a major factor in that^

the human body is a very, very delicately balanced machine. even one thing out of whack can cascade into a huge array of problems. we're just lucky we've advanced to the point where we can survive many of the consequences of that imbalance.

not that there's all that much you can do about it, i suppose. but maybe if you can find some sort of treatment for the insomnia, you might feel all around better.

dawg i dont sleep at all tho

are you saiyan i got dem beast ass genes nigga

[dasva]

Meh some people don't require a lot of sleep , and in my case often I physically cannot sleep. I think it's s combination of at some points working 2-3 jobs and having no time to sleep and my lifelong insomnia and night terrors.

I've had similar problems minus the terrors and the 2-3 jobs just being one super overbearing one... but I still stay in bed cause need that rest and maybe just maybe I'll be able to at least some sleep. Even if no actual sleep happens still helps you out some. Otherwise your body tends to slack off like immune system your metabolism etc. Ie focus it's energy on getting you moving but slack off elsewhere.

Anyways the win for today is I noticed Lay's chocolate covered chips are back at Target.

[Melena]

And my win is now I'm not hungry after reading that chocolate covered chips is a thing

[bluefan]

In 5 hours I'll be picking up sushi, watching Star Wars Episodes IV, V and VI then headed out for The Force Awakens with some coworkers.

lol @ the "I only sleep one hour a month, I'm so hardcore!" pissing contests. Bitch please I can't function without 10 hours of sleep per night and anyone who wants to interrupt my slumber for any reason will incur my wrath. I don't care if a zombie apocalypse or alien invasion happens while I'm in Zzzland. I need my beauty rest and I'm not afraid to admit it

Yeah, I don't think you have to worry about anyone waking you up.

[Churchill]

I was just concerned for local schoolchildren when he referenced his wrath

[Kalmado]

39" 4k monitor came in. Set it up and the picture is incredible! Only negative so far is the stand is garbage, but it does have Vesa mounting points which I may use when we move. It's really weird to have such a big monitor on a desk about 24" away from where I sit, but this will be great for work. Would easily recommend!

[vivbiibasjiu]

My husband often tries to wake me up with his penis. I'm like, yeah no.

[Charismatic]

shut up, nigga

[Ksandra]

Went over to brother and sister-in-law's place for the afternoon. They wanted to talk about the new SW movie. We mentioned we planned on seeing it next weekend because that's when we could get a babysister (my mother-in-law).

They offered to watch the kids so we could go see it today.

I ran out the door.

Loved it! Gonna still see it again next weekend. :D


Also, just in time, as when I got home someone reported a spoiler post in the SW thread that I would have seen.

[Aksannyi]

I am not likely to see Star Wars until after I come home from Mexico. So far, I've done remarkably well at avoiding spoilers but I know that the longer I wait, the less people are going to bother keeping quiet about spoilers. I guess I'm just gonna have to deal with it though.

[Aksannyi]

I baked cookies and they taste fucking incredible.

[Astylla]

I baked cookies and they taste fucking incredible.

You can bake cookies but not cook chicken which is by far much easier to not fuck up.

You make no sense even for a woman.

[Aksannyi]

I have always been able to bake. Cooking, however, is an entirely different field for me and has never come naturally. My best friend can cook but not bake. I have tried (unsuccessfully) to learn how to cook many times.

And I'm not even going to respond to that bit about being a woman because it really is irrelevant. There are many things I do well, cooking is not one of them.

[AidenCarby]

I want cookies :/

[Airenn]

Aks, girl...

The secret to bg is

Spoiler: show

you don't have to reply.

[Cantih]

It's sort of true, they may both involve food, but cooking and baking goods are very different beasts.
Cooking favors flexibility, baking prefers precision.
