Quit after That was the worst season. They've been consistently climbing in quality ever since. Starting with season 11 or so, they realized people love the monster of the week stuff so they have a really healthy balance of that and story episodes. The MotW episodes this season have all been quality. Hell watch the imaginary friend episode from season 11. --- |
Topic | Wife suggests I stop drinking alcohol. Hides it next day |
BlazinBlue88 05/23/17 12:17:40 PM #80 | My wife was worried with my drinking for a moment last year. After talking with her, she said her anxiety made her think I possibly needed to be drinking to enjoy myself around her. Once I convinced her that's not the case, it's been all gravy and wine. --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/23/17 9:10:02 AM #9 | _Schwarzlicht_ posted... I liked Dexter up until they solved the Icetruck Killer mystery. Tried to keep watching past that twice and could not get into it. So I just treat it as a very nice single-arc story. Though the pilot was really the best out of everything, and I could've just done with that. I always really enjoyed the whole Ice Truck Killer arc. You'd probably enjoy season 4 as well. --- |

Topic | have you ever opened a drink or bag of chips while shopping? |
BlazinBlue88 05/19/17 4:10:54 PM #28 | I used to do this at my little local country gas station. The cashier would end up ringing up an empty bottle. I wouldn't do it outside of that place where everyone knows me. --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/18/17 11:20:12 PM #23 | I don't watch any of his TV stuff outside of Singled Out when I was a kid but I do listen to the Nerdist podcast all the time. I love listening to him and his friends shoot the shit. He seems like a really good dude and a hard worker. --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/17/17 4:42:44 PM #7 | I loved it growing up. I still love it today but some of the jokes have gone from "Haha I don't agree with his caveman opinions but it's still funny to laugh at" to slight cringy when Al says something really sexist. --- |

If someone tells me they have a problem while I'm on my way to the bathroom, I am not going to remember by the time I leave the bathroom. Haha --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/10/17 5:18:19 PM #32 | AugustAdoulin posted... Honestly I'm tired of those IT guys being all uppity with their "ticket systems." I don't tell someone at work to submit a ticket before I help them. Ticket systems are used to show proof of work. It's a way to measure how the IT department spends their time and also what the most frequent issues facing users are. If you see the majority of your tickets consist of account lockout then you look for a solution like allowing users to unlock their own accounts. That frees up IT to work on their actual projects rather than babysit the helpdesk all day. It also covers the IT techs ass. If some user (someone like you) comes stomping over to his manager saying your ticket has been opened for an hour and no one has contacted you, the tech can show his manager that he has been busy working on these 4 tickets that came in before yours rather than just sitting around not working. Side note: if you only interact with your friend when you need him to fix something of yours then he isn't your friend. You are just one of those problem users that we are nice to but complain about behind your back. --- |

If you come over to us we'll tell you to go put a ticket in and we can get to work on it. If people email us directly, same policy. Its clearly not enforced.

BlazinBlue88 05/10/17 11:55:23 AM #14 | AugustAdoulin posted... when you work on the computer all day I need things fixed ASAP and the IT people are so slow normally. They want me to use the ticket system. I don't have time to wait for them to answer my tickets! I hate people like you. Regardless of what you think, your job isn't any more important than anyone else's in the company. Not going through the ticket system is essentially cutting in line to get your shit fixed. --- |
Topic | Does your job give you lots of vacation time like mine does? |
BlazinBlue88 05/09/17 5:23:43 PM #16 | fenderbender321 posted... I got 23 days of vacation I can use however I like, plus about 8 holidays. This is what I get at my current job. My new one I start next week games me 25 days and 6 holidays. That also give you the 5 days after Christmas. I also have telecommute opportunities which is basically vacation to me. --- |
Topic | Why do employees/employers frown upon others taking vacations? |
BlazinBlue88 05/09/17 5:17:00 PM #4 | Others have to pick up the slack. Also if the person that's on vacation is either the person that knows a system the best or has all the access then that can hinder others from getting their job done until that person comes back. --- |

In larger cities, it's not too difficult to get jobs that pay between $50k-$100k. @Virus731 you're correct on that price. That's around what my two friends pay for good stuff. Around $235 or $250 for so-so. --- |

Topic | Welp I just found out my girlfriend was dating another guy behind my back |
BlazinBlue88 05/07/17 11:16:56 PM #125 | thrashmetal14 posted... What probably hurts the most is the fact that shes happy with her new guy and her new relationship and Im over here completely devastated. It just feels like she won. Had the same thing happen to be with a gf of 4 1/2 years. Her "happiness" is a fleeting thing. She'll eventually do the same thing to that guy that she did to you. If anything you should feel sorry for him. Don't blame yourself over this. If there was something you did in the relationship to make her unhappy, she should have communicated it to you. The fact that she didn't is all on her. Cut contact, remove her from Facebook, burn any of her things she's given you. Just isolate yourself away from her. Like someone else said earlier, focus on your life and improving the quality of it. Make new friends, find new hobbies, be the best you can possibly be. Learn to love yourself and being single. Leave her and her messed up relationship issues in the past. You'll find someone better down the road. That's what happened to me. The next gf I had after the cheater became my wife and we're going on 3 years strong. --- |
Topic | Is that user Scarecrow1711 ok? |
BlazinBlue88 05/04/17 12:46:51 PM #5 | That's sad. I remember him right when he started coming around here. He was like 14 at the time. Hard to believe he's in college now. He was a good guy. I remember his topic where he wrote a note to a girl asking her out on a pizza box and delivered it to her. Everyone on CE thought it was a cringy idea and it would blow up in his face. Turns out she thought it was cheesy cute and was into it. That was a fun topic. --- |

Topic | Has anyone else here just completely given up on finding a girlfriend/boyfriend? |
BlazinBlue88 05/03/17 11:10:20 AM #64 | Xenozoa425 posted... so I'll just focus on bettering myself... 2 months later, bam, she came out of nowhere and we hit it off. This is what happens when you better yourself. You work out, get into new hobbies, attempt to get into social situations rather than avoid them. Your social skills improve and your confidence explodes. Women(people in general) see this and get pulled towards it. The Catgirl Fondler posted... I never bothered trying to find one in the first place, and I prefer to keep it that way. Zero upsides and endless downsides to romance and sex as far as I'm concerned, and I'm completely undesirable anyway, so it's not worth the time or effort to even humor the idea of companionship. So because you feel you're worthless and lack any ounce of self confidence, you decided to construct all of these reasons that relationships are pointless to justify your lack of effort in getting a gf. That way you being single is your choice, not anyone elses. Good job buddy. --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/02/17 11:55:56 AM #10 | The Internet as a whole has slowly turned into a circle jerk of hate spewing. I wish we could get back to a time where we used the Internet to develop supportive communities that relate and embrace each other's geek/weird interests. --- |

BlazinBlue88 05/02/17 10:07:50 AM #52 | Blackstar110 posted... Lost has things I'm critical of and some things aren't explained properly at all, but at the end of the day, I never understood what people THOUGHT a "good explanation" would've been for a giant malevolent sentient pillar of smoke This. Most of the mysteries were explained but the answers didn't live up to people's expectations which....isn't necessarily their fault. The hype and theories during its run were massive. No answers were going to be acceptable at that point. The ending often confuses people and leads them to believe --- |
Topic | Is it normal to be more anxious around people that drink? |

I never liked unpredictability at that age. I grew out of it though. When you use the phrase "grew out of it", it isn't anything learned. You just stop feeling that way as you grow older. Hell I went the opposite direction. I drink quite often. I may have also realized that alcohol doesn't turn people into monsters. They were just assholes to begin with. --- |
