I invited a friend to this thing I'm supposed to go to, because I know the people I'm supposed to be going with (i.e. bringing) don't really want to be around me.
She said she'll try to, which is the closest to a "yes" I've gotten from people I've invited before.


In case that's worded poorly: I may have successfully invited someone to hang out, for the first time in my life.

I'd say you aren't hanging with the right people. Used to be the same way myself. The group I hung around were tolerant of me but never really seemed much interested in what I had to say or cared much if I was around.

So, I stopped hanging with them. I found another group that I related better to and we get along great. Hell, even my old group of "friends" show me more respect now which is sort of ironic since I no longer really care.

The trick is picking people who you actually have fun with. If they make you feel like shit then you aren't having much fun. There's always going to be someone out there who gets along with you and genuinely appreciates you as a person. You don't have to hang out with the largest crowd or the "in" crowd or whatever. Hang with the people right for you and have fun. Besides, when you're having fun, the people around you have more fun too.
This, pretty much verbatim, is my experiences. Not saying it's necessarily easy to leave your old "friends", but it's better to, in the long run. The short run too, now that I think about it.

I've just been utterly miserable all day. No real reason why that's good enough to justify it, I just feel total apathy and sad-feels towards anything and everything.

Obviously the solution is to make a post to bitch about it in the sad thread. GG, me, GG. Blaaaagh. Emotions are stupid.

I get that.

I get that a lot, and then there's the guilt for posting about it or about the problem not being as dire as those of others. And then you write it down, and feel bad about writing such soppy filth that you've something new to feel bad about when after vomiting your negative emotions on paper.

It's a horrible cycle and I haven't found a reliable way to break it yet, but shoulder on, good Space Cat. You're not alone in your frustrations.
I don't want to post about some of the things I'm going through for the same reason. Some of the same things, actually. I'm stuck in the cycle too; I haven't found a way to break it yet, but dammit I'll try.
'Til then, I'll just offer my support to you guys. We can do this.

Eh, we have to do an online economics class to graduate. I can understand why; our economy is kinda fucked by people who don't understand how this stuff works, but it doesn't really teach us. The people who are getting good grades get them because they already knew this stuff beforehand.

The established rule is that we can go no further than three folders deep, with no more than 30 files in a folder. Any more is too confusing and time consuming, apparently.

-Inception, more or less.

Brain function in the folder will be about twenty times more. Now when you enter a folder within that folder, the effect is compounded. That's three folders, that's ten hours...
I'm sorry, Maths was never my strong subject. How much time is that?
That's a week the first level down, six months the second level down, third level...
It's ten years! Who'd wanna be stuck in a folder for ten years?
Depends on the folder.
-Still not Inception

Tangentially related to tartan; I made the mistake of mentioning that I liked red hair when visiting my friend. She's now trying to hook me up with her single red-haired friend. Never met her, but I have had her spiced apple cider recipe, which was kind of amazing. Not really in the business of dating strangers based on appearances, and my friend is prone to playing matchmaker like this.... but it was sweet of her. And hey, if she likes cooking, a cooking buddy could be great!
Tangentially related to red-hared girls: I found out this girl I've known for five or six years is actually brown-haired. She just dyed it red, the whole time.

True, the fact she's from the United Arab Emirates should have tipped me off; I was still really surprised.

In the beginning of Bible study, we sometimes play a game, just to have some fun. We did hide & seek.
No one found me. No one noticed they didn't find me.
Yes, I was the only one.

After that, I slowly started getting more and more socially anxious as the night wore on. It got to the point where I couldn't bring myself to look at anyone else, and just stared down into my lap. I probably looked so fucking stupid.

I found this through the quotes thread. I'm staying because this looks amazing and hilarious.

Also, should we maybe probably run away?

I thought one of my friends was going to ride the bus this afternoon. She didn't, and I spent the hour-long trip being stared down by some kid who had gotten high.

Well that is all well and good, but can I connect to a meat human now, rather than the sonic type? The fleshy ones tend to have more practical application.
Not over the phone you can't.

Hug self, then hug badger! Hugs for everybold!
Oops, didn't see that I already hugged the badger. Anyways, I intend to hug EVERYONE.

Tiruin, you don't have to do your own status, I don't think. You're on the list, right?

Of course he doesn't work for the government. He hasn't had his brain re-calibrated to serve and praise Obama, as all government employees are upon a successful interview.
Clearly the brainwashing doesn't take hold all that well.
* Sirus glares at the gub'mint in question
Well, not when the gub'mint and all its mind control centers are shut down like this, duh!

Also, I have changed my guess: He's carrying the internet. It crashed today at my school, so it obviously must have gotten bumped on the way into the truck.
