    Yes. I am an Army Brat, so that explains the thing about the Missile.
    And the second is from being into BDSM. :p

    Good idea, I'll fire it up now before it gets too hot outside.

    People who tell me I am living in the past because their's sucked.

    No, I am still very active in the present, very active. I just go there (to my past) once in a while to remind myself of what being light & happy was like because I occasionally forget. I am still gathering memories to this day, but the good ones are becoming far and few between for some reason. And damn, yes it is more complicated to be open to life's beauty and joy with so many people fucking with it and promoting an accumulation of thought patterns and judgements and using comparisons as truth over the years making letting go more and more difficult unless one meditates every freakin' day to try and rub away these noisy templates forming in anyone who listens to the noise around them. And then, after meditating regularly, I become less judgmental and often find myself losing my edge like many of my yoga friends who go around smiling at everything. You got to be fucked in the head to convince yourself that all is well without understanding that all is not well at the same time. I guess it is easier to float with the tides (no matter how foul) than swimming against the cuurents of our times. They are both choices with their own consequences to bear.

    Regardless, I have a retirement savings plan of memories tucked away on hard drives, journals, medias and dream notebooks that will make me feel fortunate when and if that day comes when I can no longer "do". Because when I am too old to wipe my own ass or relieve my partner from sighing, there will only be memories to fill my time. I preserve and protect them in my no service fee memory bank, so no, I do not live in the past for the most part, not yet. I just depend on it occasionally to keep me moving forward in a sea of troubles.

    That is all.

    You sound like you need a hug. Would you like a hug?

    Ugh, web sites that won't allow you to save images from them. You know, screenshots are a thing. So you're only causing me an inconvenience by doing this. And inconvenience is inconvenient, so stop it.

    Coworkers who have apparently never heard of headphones!

    This is probably it should annoy you scenario.

    Wanted to have my lunch, a little piece of fucking quiet, but that's too much to ask for. My retarded coworker who showed up 45 minutes early because apparently he got confused what time is supposed to come in.

    Is sitting there watching his phone with sounds blaring, so now I have hear this fucking shit while I try to eat. Fucking fantastic, nice and relaxing.

    It took me about 20 minutes to eat my food, pretty quick and I retreated into the bathroom, where I can still hear his fucking phone at least it was muffled if I can hear my own stuff through my headset. Cuz I have heard of headphones.

    I have two suggestions.

    1. "Aw, thanks!"

    2. "Not today, Satan!"

    Ofcourse, - thanks masher. But I reckon John-Wayne could use one as well after his post. Hell, we could all use a hug in these times of want and woe.

    God bless our ship of fools, no one else would dare to.

    Dirty Dancing. It's just shit. Everybody swoons and and sobs when he says "nobody puts baby in the corner" and freaks out when he lifts her up like a jumbo jet taking off in the big dance-off at the end. But it's just shit, and you all know it.

    Yeah, I didn't really get it as a film either. I liked some of the songs in it though.

    It's a chick film, dudes aren't supposed to get it...also it's of its time, like top gun, and like top gun it really shows its age.

    This chick thinks it sucked, too. I hate that fucking movie.

    ETA: On that note, I'm annoyed as fuck by the notion of chick flicks. (Not annoyed by you, Moose.) And by the notion that I'm supposed to like shoe shopping and the color pink. I'm one of those chicks who always fucks up research for my demo, and I take perverse pleasure in doing so. My Ex#2, a straight man, is far more of a typical "chick" than I am.

    ETA: God I'm using the word fuck and fucking today. My joints hurt like hell this week and it's coming out in my posts.

    People posting in general writing.... I'm working on emptying that bucket and I'm irrationally annoyed by people filling it back up, fair enough if it really doesn't fit anywhere else, but if it's clearly plot or character or whatever....:supermad:

    Also my fucking iPad and it's auto correct while typing smiley codes.

    Dirty Dancing?

    What about 'Breakfast Club' and that horse face guy - supposed to be sexy? But, I mean that was 'back then' with the Athena poster of the man and baby, and when James Dean was cool.

    I remember 'Breakfast Club' parties...eleven girls watching 'Breakfast Club,' - me and Ben guarding the lavatory, or kitchen.

    Ah, Breakfast Club. The burnout gets the princess, the freak gets the jock, and the nerd gets to write an essay while everybody else is hooking up. Depressingly realistic, actually :(

    Just how tedious it is to land something on the Mun in KSP.
    Fucking nailed, after what felt like an eternity.
    1 object orbiting the Mun
    1 object actually on the Mun.
