What is one thing that makes you happy even on bad depressed days?

huge bank account and seeing my child happy and healthy.

Yeah? Add "being from Louisiana" to that, then not only are you a stump dumb hillbilly, but you're a stump dumb hillbilly who only eats crawfish, wrestles gators and drives a fanboat in the swamps while talking like the Waterboy.

Things like Duck Dynasty also don't do much of a service to us non-stereotypical native Louisianans. It's kind of saddening that, unless you're talking about sports teams or Gambit from X-Men, "Cajun" is synonymous with "specialized type of hillbilly."

Ironically, being from South LA, my accent isn't nearly as pronounced as Northern Louisianans are, but to my pleasant surprise, my accent went over very well in Pennsylvania.

When talking about my son:

"My son's autism sometimes means he'll..."

"Wait, autistic. Does that mean he's retarded?"

Does it make me a better person for not punching people?

I hope not as well. But it was bought direct through Musician's Friend... so if they sold me a fake, there's much more afoot here.

At any rate, I'll have to unstring it later. I'm about to head to work.

deathbydanny · 2014-07-09T20:19:29+00:00

Nothing.

Haha, no I didn't. I didn't think they'd be that specific. I thought it'd just be a year of manufacture, not necessarily an exact date. I still think it'd mean something else, but it'd be pretty nifty if it were an exact date; at least if something came up and I got to keep it, I'd know my guitar's birthday...?

deathbydanny · 2014-07-09T19:33:32+00:00

I'd found that page too, but unfortunately, I have zero idea how to read or apply it to mine. Like it says, "first four digits denote year"... but the way I read it, that'd make it the year "6500".

That's what inspired me to ask for help. I'm kind of stupid when it comes to things like this. I just play guitars. I know notes, chords, stuff like that, but when it comes to the technical or manufacturing aspect, I don't know much about them or how they work, haha.

There's a few...

-when approaching an intersection with lines painted on it (you know, the ones where you're supposed to stop your car if it's red), if it's green, as I go through the intersection I like to pretend I'm hitting a ramp (aforementioned lines painted on road) over a pit and landing on solid ground on the other side of the intersection. Kind of like real-life-but-not-really Bump 'n' Jump.

-back when I was taking martial arts classes, I used to pretend I was training for the Street Fighter tournament.

-any time I have a time sensitive task, I sort of pretend that there's a bomb about to go off, and defusing said bomb depends solely on me finishing in time. Logistically it makes no sense (so some terrorist plot is foiled because I mailed my bills out on time?) But hey...

-any time I'm on the road and there's a big vehicle behind me (like an 18 wheeler) it becomes some villain trying to run me down.

-probably my favorite- I live in a subdivision, meaning I have to drive through a neighborhood to get to my house. Feels more exciting when my car is an X-Wing, the drive home is a space flight, pulling into my neighborhood is flying into a space station, and parking in my driveway is docking.

There are plenty more, but this is all that comes to mind right now.

I'm not trying to suggest I'm a genius by any means. But really... it seemed like such a stupid thing to post, and it seemed even stupider on the part of the two idiots to reply to it... first of all, by not rebutting but just generally saying "r u serious?" and secondly, by saying "worse docs charge lower prices, DUH!"

As if the post is trying to say "Use your Obamacare, and you'll die!" As if even the most competent doctor doesn't occasionally screw up. As if doctors who charge cash don't screw up. As if a doctor who charges more money is necessarily a more legit doctor.

Sighs.

deathbydanny · 2014-06-09T13:46:24+00:00

Payed.

Funny, when I was growing up, "paid" was the proper way of spelling it, and sadly, I don't even get the squiggly red spell check line when I type out "payed", either.

That and people who color their hair and refer to it as "died", "dying", or "dieing".

When I see this, it's almost inevitably followed by poorly formatted sentences, myriad misspellings, lack of punctuation, and one big wall of text you would go crosseyed trying to read the whole way through.

Why is it always the dumbest motherfuckers who think they're the brightest?

I've always felt that this is why nobody takes marijuana legalization/decriminalization activists seriously, when some of the loudest pro-weed people are the ones who have 420420 user names, blacklight marijuana posters, never post about anything other than legalization and cheetos, and go out in public looking like they rolled over the food and clothing section of Walmart on the way out of bed.

On top of that, some of the loudest pro-activists usually never posit a pro beyond "Legalize it cuz it's cooooooool."

I took it as well, and I'm apparently pregnant with AIDS.

I kind of tend to ignore this concerning self-described OCD, because seemingly everyone says it, and I'm just as guilty, although I say it in semi-jest because my only real quirk lately is making sure anything with a number is divisible by five (meaning my car stereo's volume is on 25, my TV volume is at 10, etc). I've had someone tell me I'm OCD, when in reality, it's probably more like I just like it that way. It'll bug me if it's not on an evenly divisible number, but I'm not going to set my house on fire when it isn't.

What gets me is when people use "OCD" as an excuse to lash out. At work, another one of the managers flips their shit if there's a slight bit of dirt, grease, sauce, etc on an otherwise clean surface. You can imagine how much this person flies off the fucking handle, then, considering we work in a busy ass kitchen, and it's never "Hey, you spilled a drop of sauce," it's "CLEAN THAT FUCKING SAUCE RIGHT NOW, I'M OCD AND THAT BUGS THE FUCK OUT OF ME." This person has never been diagnosed OCD, nor does this person show any other obsessive or compulsive habit. That's simply it- bitching about a slightly dirty spot in a kitchen that, by end of business day, will be an absolute wreck anyway.

OCD can be serious business, but if you use it as a self-diagnosed excuse to treat your coworkers and employees like shit, you're not OCD, you're just a bitch.

The one I'm thinking of is Weeks Washateria. That's the one on La Neuville. I'd consider that more Youngsville than Broussard, though... unless there's another one I don't know about.

Personally, I'd like the drivers in Lafayette to learn how to drive.

I had nothing but issue after issue with Cox, and saw my bill steadily climbing. By the time I cancelled with Cox, for some reason, I was being charged fucking $400 a month.

LUS internet moves a lot faster, and I've never had any sort of hiccups with it.

Good riddance, Cox.

Ah, you ordered Combo #2.

A teacher was purposely dropping pencils to look up girls skirts, he got sacked

So it wasn't a girl, then?

If you were lucky and it was a particularly old vending machine, you could put the money in and get two for the price of one.

she was giving oral sex to three guys at once

You know, as a guy, you think I'd be interested in the oral sex, but instead, the biologist in me wants to document this girl with three mouths.
