@scribus Thanks! I overwork myself. If I didn't everything would crumble away with missing deadlines and such. Also I cannot think not of my work after work (thinking about particular problems), which is also super draining.

@scribus I'm somewhat disappointed that it doesn't transform into a snowman.

@scribus Well... I tested some "dirt cheap" mattresses for about 60€ and they instantly felt like a piece of brick. The one I got initially costed 444€ but due to Winter sales I got it half that price. Because of my bed size I bought it twice. The feel in quality was huge between the cheap mattresses and this one. However a 1000€ mattress was toooo soft for my liking (and way too expensive).

@scribus
1) it's icky and stinky,
2) their ripped-out innards will only pollute unnecessarily the environment,
3) think of the other workers that will lose their jobs,
4) it's a tad unethical to claim their bodies only for oneself

@scribus At my job I work 120% of my time this year and yet I'm stuck in 3 projects at the same time right now, and 17 of 30 days of vacation not spent yet.

@scribus There is an open Toys R Us just a kilometer away from my home. I'll do it for you.

@scribus No. I'd design it in a CAD program first and then try building it myself after buying the wood. I have a small circular saw and a jigsaw. How hard could that be?

@scribus It's all fine. It's functional. Nothing broke. The furniture in question is a bed. It's just that the type of joining the pieces together and the amount of material is improvable. I'll probably buy something better in the next year. Or if it is possible I design something myself and see how expensive it'd be.

@scribus Local furniture franchise. Mömax. I bought a bed that looked good and it was relatively cheap. The cheapness came through while assembling.

@scribus Tragic! Very tragic. That's one of my favorite NES games. It's so good that I have it twice! The one with Mike Tyson and the other with Mr Dream. Only Road Fighter is slightly above that but more for nostalgic reasons than for its gameplay (because it is very flawed). I played it on a clone Famicom at my grandparent's when I was young.

@scribus You did what?!? *faint*

@scribus Boring things like those metal strips at the floor in the door frame for transitioning the floor from one room to another. Bought a few and due to my very wavy floor and the perfect straightness of the metal strips you can see huge gaps of 3mm between the strip and the floor. They weren't that cheap (about 20€ a piece). Luckily I had only bought two of them. Now I have to buy more flexible ones but these have to be screwed instead of being clipped.

@scribus ... and fake your death. Maybe that would be too extreme.

@scribus You'll need to make a party on your own, not inviting any of your room mates. If you're lazy you can just send them away, make a huge (or managable) mess on your own, and say that you had a party, with hookers and blackjack.
