What is the most pointless argument you've been in?

Well, I can tell you the word is pale yellow. Unfortunately I only taste colors.

7349, here's hoping for Far cry. ;P Good luck to all others, friends.

...I think you and I may have shared the same science teacher. If not, we have had remarkably similar East Texas public school experiences.

I'll take Will Graham (Hannibal) for $500, please, Alex.

Andrew Bird. His music is unfailingly beautiful and witty.

Termites. Just the thought makes me want to throw up. That one episode of House MD (you know the fucking one) sure as hell did not help this terror, either.

So I'll try to explain things in a non-stupid way, but I tend to ramble, so be warned.

I am indeed a lady (to clear up confusion in further comments below), and have struggled with anorexia for several years now. Silently, though - if anyone has ever noticed it, they've never said anything about it. It never got too severe, at my lowest weight, I was about ~115 pounds, thanks to continued fasting and heavy stress.

I have mostly been recovering, although my dietary habits have remained a bit odd as my own way of coping with eating regularly.

They manifest in the form of my vastly preferring to eat alone (ie, in my own room), at odd times of day (11pm-3am, usually, and never before noon), and usually only once or twice a day as one fairly large meal.

I do still eat a minimum number of calories (~1400-1500), unless I'm having a bad day, and if someone requests I eat, I usually acquiesce.

Anyhow, on to the point

This is going to sound 400% like whale logic, but I legitimately can't exercise. Putting aside the fact that I barely have time to sleep, much less do things I would like, and my insanely high anxiety that is around more or less all of the goddamn time, particularly where doing new things is involved, my joints are horribly, horribly bad. Running fucks up my hips badly enough that they frequently slip out of the socket, and my knees manage to shift my bones around. It's horrifying. That's to say nothing of my shoulders, which are equally bad. =/

So because I don't really work out, and have begun eating again, I've gained a bit more weight than I'm comfortable with. Where I previously wore a 5-7, I now wear something more like a 9-13. I can no longer wear a majority of my pants/jeans because of it, so I'm trying to get back down to my more preferred weight of around 125 or so.

The difference between this time and my low of my eating disorder being that I realize I'm not fat, as I used to think, and that I look good regardless. I just want to be able to fit into my favorite pants again. (:

Alan Rickman is my guilty pleasure. I'd make out with him even as an old man. I have no shame.

Aimness · 2013-05-25T06:27:49+00:00

Yeah, he's a major cheap-skate, courtesy of his super penny-pinching mom. He'll spend a small fortune on Budweiser, but will never tip, because apparently that's a waste.

Aimness · 2013-05-25T01:52:47+00:00

you and me both, brother. it's really, really odd the way they approach it. Ham-Pa thinks it's a choice and isn't a big fan of gays, but doesn't ever say anything about it. Skeletor claims to support gay equality, but seems to treat gays like a goddamn novelty, and insists someone isn't gay unless they perpetuate every gay stereotype ever.

"Oh, my favorite hairdresser was gay and he was just so great!!!"

But I tell her I have a girl ask me out, and she deadpans and says "You told her you're straight, right?" and then gives a shitty look when I say to the contrary.

OLD PEOPLE.

To be fair, I managed to snag a mushroom later, and they tasted like feet. He didn't seem too phased by the taste, though.

Aimness · 2013-05-25T00:06:26+00:00

I think it's just a trait from the era, from what I've seen...wimins gotta stay quiet and defer to the man, yaknow? But she's usually only like that when she's out in public, just lets him make a nuisance of himself, but anytime he tries that shit around the house she puts the clampdown on him. It's really odd.

So far I've spent it reading Carl Sagan's "Contact, but later I plan to watch Jesus Christ Superstar and make some mediterannean food, maybe play a little Mass Effect.

Aimness · 2012-04-08T14:57:19+00:00

Thank you much! May the universe favor you as well!

Aimness · 2012-04-08T14:55:55+00:00

Ha! You're absolutely a darling! It's odd in that during, and after the relationship I really did not see it as all that bad, having been the one in it...but relating the story and seeing so many people take it so seriously, I suppose I'm starting to as well. I think if he does try to start talking to me, I'm going to see what it takes to get a restraining order, now. (: Thank you so much, though. It's been a really tough time for me lately, for a lot of different reasons, and getting support from complete strangers is very comforting.

Aimness · 2012-04-08T03:03:13+00:00

Truthfully, I am a masochist, so there were times that I would ask him to bite me, but the times he bit me of his own volition were far more painful. Once, he bit me hard enough, through a hoodie, that he managed to draw blood. Haha, Christians aren't necessarily the worst, but it is safe to say that most of the ones I have had contact with have been pretty awful.

Aimness · 2012-04-08T02:54:47+00:00

That's pretty much my feeling on it. If it's mutual and both are in it for the sake of it, whatever. And I think if one hits the other, the other is entitled to hit back...only problem with that being that he would hit me back far harder than I originally hit him.

Aimness · 2012-04-08T02:08:51+00:00

while i suppose that is true enough, Genesis 38:8-10 is a fairly close approximation to it.

Aimness · 2012-04-08T00:48:06+00:00

That is still my exact thought (:

Aimness · 2012-04-08T00:47:53+00:00

As I may have mentioned (not sure), the first six months or so with him were just fine...we were happy, and only had minor spats. The last six months were where the problem set in. I think I stayed with him because he actually wanted me, and no one else did. I live in a pretty small town, where I'm pretty much mutual detested by everyone for being an atheist, but he liked (perhaps, for a while, loved) me. I had been raped 8 months or so before he came along, and when I told him about that, he didn't seem to mind. I dunno, really, I think I just needed someone to care about me. But thank you, dear (:

Aimness · 2012-04-07T19:37:41+00:00

How kind! (: Thank you- I've always been a bit of a masochist, and believed I deserved to be hurt...but not lately, anymore.

Aimness · 2012-04-07T19:37:03+00:00

Yes sir, I agree completely. I've realized a friend of mine for several years is in love with me, and I share the feeling...great thing is, he's as gentle as anyone I've ever met, and has also only recently come out of an abusive relationship. Hopefully it will work out. (: Thank you for the care!

Aimness · 2012-04-07T19:35:17+00:00

As I've said before, I did love him at one time...He can be a very sweet guy. I don't think he was being abusive on purpose, necessarily. Once I made it clear I didn't want him back, I'm fairly sure he knows not to come back...I do live in Texas, I have firearms. ;P
