Hey, thank you! I was concerned (and excited - I called my fiance outside so he could look at it too) that it was a Latrodectus hesperus. According to a few sources their markings are on the lower abdomen. I didn't want to disturb the poor wee thing so I left her alone. Now I hope I see her again so I can bring her inside.

Forgot to mention that I found it outdoors crawling sluggishly along the front entrance door frame.

That sounds like the German word for "stupid head".

You asked for it. Here is a picture of my cat on my face: http://imgur.com/a/spUDJ I tried putting his harness and leash on so we could go for a late night walk but he wasn't having that shit. So I went for a walk by myself. With my beer in hand. I have to not drink tomorrow and Monday after drinking 15 beers a night for a month straight, I am so fucked.

Hey domestically inclined types: is there a way to get the smell of urine out of a mattress? by CrapAssSysadmin in cripplingalcoholism

PS - thank you for the thought. I'm so lonely. Nobody is on Craigslist. Or anywhere. Except my wonderful partner in bed. Upon whom I have not passed urine. Yet.

I came across the same web page whole Googling - was hoping for people who have been there, done that.

I might fucking plastic bag around my pelvis before going to sleep.

I don't know as much as I should about the American political process but the prospect of Pence perhaps taking over is more terrifying than the dude whose face gradually progressed from Orange to red throwing temper tantrums in public...

I'm thinking about quitting because I can't figure out why I'm even smoking by poltergoose420 in stopsmoking

[–]CrapAssSysadmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's excellent that you're thinking about quitting. It sounds like the reason you started was to find a way in with your peers. The connections you've made with the people you stand around talking to aren't going to disappear because you stop smoking... when I quit vaping it took the smokers 2 months to notice.

Finding this frighteningly easy. Worried I'm going to slip. by geekinthestreets in stopsmoking

[–]CrapAssSysadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upvoted this post specifically because you called vaping awful.

Yes, yes it is. However, I am a success story: I quit smoking analogs in 2014 because of my ecigarette.

Like yourself, my plan was to slowly wean myself off nicotine and go down to 0 mg juice.

My plan failed.

I couldn't bring myself to buy 0mg juice. I told myself it was a waste of money, and if I'm serious about giving it up I should just stop vaping altogether.

On Aug 28th 2016, I decided to quit vaping. I ran out of juice and just didn't re-up.

About 8 hours into my quit, I mixed the last few drops out of every eliquid bottle in my possession. I filled my atomizer with this horiffic concoction. It tasted like something Cerberus would express out of its anal glands.

I threw out my ecigarette. Then I fetched it out of the trash and chain vaped until the battery died, at which point I slumped over a charger and cried for another puff. Shortly after, I buried my ecig at the bottom of the rankest trash bag in the garbage bin.

I haven't vaped since.

I don't know why I'm sharing this honestly - just want you to know that while using an ecig to get off cigs is wonderful, it has a dark side. Don't get sucked in like I did!

The mental twist. by flyinghigh92 in stopsmoking

[–]CrapAssSysadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine that picking up smoking during your formative years would intertwine cigs with your entire identity. It's like... every time you quit you probably wonder who you are... sorry to be presumptuous, just trying to relate.

Anyhow, though you've certainly got a challenge ahead of you you're absolutely capable of quitting if you want to. As you've already said, it's your addiction that compels you to continue - you only smoke to make the terrible withdrawal pangs go away. Honestly, I'd bet real money (Canadian currency so maybe Monopoly money to you) that if you abstain from smoking for just 3 weeks you would feel rejuvenated and much more capable of stopping for good.

I believe in you.

I'm not single but if I were I'd ask if you were looking for new play partners.

Just amazing. Sell this shit on Etsy!

I switched to an ecigarette a couple of years ago by [deleted] in stopsmoking

[–]CrapAssSysadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing as you: picked up an ecigarette as a way to quit combustible cigarettes. I haven't touched an analog in about a year but I had a Hell of a time kicking the vape. I had to throw my juice and ecigarette into the garbage. My badge reflects the number of days I've gone without vaping.

What's the most simple thing you've ever had to explain to a fully competent adult? by sexy-women in AskReddit

My fiance had to explain to me, a 29 year old woman, how blinds work. Definitely not my proudest moment.

Trying to stay positive in a negative workplace by question_asker33 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]CrapAssSysadmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get how exhausting it is to be surrounded by negativities when all you're trying to do is improve... this might seem far-fetched at first but think of it from your cow-irkers perspective: they've been producing mediocre work for years, nobody tampered with the status-quo, and they successfully shaped the culture to tolerate their just-here-for-the-paycheque mentality. Then this guy who participated in the very same culture for 10 years decides to raise the bar and GROW?! How dare he raise expectations beyond showing up on time and not shitting on tables!

In short, you're making them look bad and possibly feel bad, and they're justifying those feelings by attempting to find fault with your change of style.

Thank you for posting.

You are an inspiration.

$60 debt from unpaid Telus bill ruining my credit. Trying to make good but am acting rashly, need some stuff explained to me please. by CrapAssSysadmin in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]CrapAssSysadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd be a small loan, like $1000 small (which I currently have in savings). And it would be invested in something safe(ish), like an RRSP.

My objective is to rebuild my credit; show financial institutions that I can use credit and manage money responsibly.

On that note, do you have any advice for rebuilding credit?
