I've accomplished a lot, but taking so long to finish my undergraduate degree leaves me sympathetic.Monday, 28-Apr-14 14:05:20 UTC from web-
@pony I know that feeling. I put my schooling on hold for work and at some point I'll finish it. I'm 23 and I don't have an associate's yet. :(
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Huh. I thought you were older. Like 28 or so.
-
@nerthos Uh...... thanks....?
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx It's not really a better or worse thing, I just found you to seem that age.
-
@nerthos Huh, interesting. Maturity I guess?
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx A bit of maturity and a bit of situations you described being more often asociated with people nearing 30.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I'm surrounded by the elite of my culture. Even though I rock there are a few who come so close to rocking harder that I sometimes worry I'm not the absolute best.. And on that note..

I think we give the elite too much credit sometimes.Pony likes this. -
@nerthos I see. Hmmm, well to shatter that image of maturity..... BUTTS! HAHAHAHAHA.

@pony Ha, that story is brilliant.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Wheee :D (To be fair we all have areas in which we seem a different age to the age we actually are)
-
@nerthos This is true. Getting deep up in RDN.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx That's like my speciality!
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx yep xD
-
@nerthos I don't know if I should take that philosophically or gutterminded.

@xeleanorxrigbyx Ooh, ooh! Gutterminded!
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx The first one. I could do the other one but it's not really my thing.
-
@nerthos Very well. Philosophy away!
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I would if my stomach didn't hurt right now.

@nerthos Awwww. Hope you feel better.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I probably will after a nap. I think it's a mixture of being tired and being hungry until recently.
-
@nerthos Ah, good plan. Sleep seems to fix a lot of things.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx It's 11:30am I should have been in bed 9 hours ago :D
-
@nerthos Well what are you still doing up? Just a glutton for punishment?
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Nah one thing after another keeps me awake. First game of thrones then dogs causing trouble then the municipality sending a truck to put an automatic switch on the streetlamp now talking with you. I very, very rarely get side effects for doing this kind of thing.
-
@nerthos Awww dang, don't let me keep you awake then. Sounds like a nifty superpower though (lack of side effects)
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Bah, I'll take any excuse to stay up, plus you're really fun to talk with. Regarding no side effects, I just have a top tier health.
-
@nerthos Hey, thanks. :) I feel like I'm relatively healthy but when my sleep or food is messed with bad things happen. Mostly anger related.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Oh yeah that usually happens to me too, but only if something triggers that anger. If nobody around me mangoess up going past the sleep threshold will just cause me to start cracking jokes at everything and ruining everyone's productivity by making them laugh. Missing food just causes willing lethargy for me.
-
@nerthos I don't know then. Everything goes from 0-9001 if I haven't eaten for a while. Shoes get left lying around? Not an issue if I'm not seriously hungry. Haven't eaten in a while? Might as well have punched me in the face.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Yeah I can understand that. You shut off patience to economize energy.
-
@nerthos Got stuck driving home from Georgia to Oklahoma (12ish hour drive) on Christmas day. Had a container of goldfish crackers and nothing else, figured at least a McDonald's or something would be open. Nope, nothing. Surprised no one was murdered.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Road raaage :D I got a chocolate stash as a failsafe for lack of food
-
@nerthos That is something I need to work on. I should probably take my road rage down a tick. Even when I'm not hungry. People just get stupid in cars thoughl.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Orrrr, you could reinforce your car and not give a care anymore.
-
@nerthos I need to ante up to match everyone around here and get the largest pickup I can find. My poor car wouldn't do so well currently.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Get something with a solid chassis and weld structural tubing to it. If you crash your car will just lodge itself into the other car.
-
@nerthos I just need a Batmobile. Just roll up and over everything while I cackle madly.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Some day, I want to buy an APC.
-
@nerthos That's the way to do it. No one will ever cut you off again.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Plus I won't need to worry about roads anymore! Highway's traffic is stuck? Just drive over the guardrail and down the slope.
-
@nerthos I can only imagine what it would cost to fuel that beast though.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx That's the main reason keeping me from funding that fantasy of mine.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Now, if I manage to get my hands on some processed uranium, I can build a little reactor engine and convert the passenger area of the APC into a reactor room and solve the fuel issue with only a slight risk of widespread radiation poisoning.
-
@nerthos Well get on it Tony Stark
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I need a bulletproof vest first. Remember how Doc Brown ended up?
-
@nerthos Vest first, death vehicle second. Sounds like a good start.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Safety first
-
@nerthos Also have to make sure you have seatbelts in the doomcar.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx I can fill it with foam!
-
@nerthos Or make it a ball pit!
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Yeah! You have the greatest ideas.
-
@nerthos APC ball pit. Now that's a sight to see.
