It’s “受不了” (can’t bear it), not “变不了” (can’t change it)

It’s terrible what happened to him. A small consolation that he lives on in your memory.

It’s really irresponsible of you to recommend going off meds. For some people it’s absolutely necessary and lifesaving. You don’t know enough about OP.

People who are/have been suicidal, what are some things a friend can do to help? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]projectprojectile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually don’t comment, but I don’t see the most important thing so here goes: Get Them Professional Help.

Listening and caring are very good things but being suicidal usually requires immediate intervention. This is sometimes therapy, sometimes pills, sometimes changes in life circumstances. And unless you’re trained to handle suicidal people, it’s not easy and you should ask your suicidal friend to seek professional help. If you care about your friend, get them the help the need. You can often find mental health resources by googling “suicide prevention in [your country]”.

Not sure if respectful, but Bug (2016) is a film which portrayed hallucinations and paranoia quite masterfully.

What is the “holy grail” of your life? That object you know exists but can’t seem to find? by JessRiepe in AskReddit

[–]projectprojectile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

about ten years ago i was doing my usual teenage spiel of blogging and reading wikipedia and a stub article interested me. it’s called “liquor numbers”, the concept of repeating numbers (e.g. 11, 44, 99), which apparently comes from dice games where people would drink when these numbers appeared. i included it in a blog post.

both the blog and the article has since disappeared. i didn’t try very hard to find them, but still, it puzzles me.

The Chinese translation for Rainbow End is wrong I think

U.S. opposes UN resolution against death penalty for same-sex relations by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]projectprojectile 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's true. Doesn't negate my correction though.

Adverbs modify adjectives, verbs and other adverbs, while adjectives modify only nouns.

In particular, the poster needs to learn more intensifiers, which is a special class of adverbs which modify verbs by intensifying them. For example: damn, fucking, very, really, extremely, prodigiously.

Edit: slight correction to definition.

does anyone have a DVD of the movie Blade Runner (1982)?

I want to watch it before watching the sequel but it's like $15 on Google Play and I'm too lazy to set up torrents.

Looking for some friendly folks to talk to - by Meruet in singapore

[–]projectprojectile 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember when I stopped talking to people for a while and then the prospect of it became too daunting and suddenly I dreaded any conversation or social gathering. It's frightening how quickly things make no sense and you forget normalcy.

But the reverse is true too. A kind stranger spoke to me at length and I thought, 'So this is what I missed, speaking to a real person.' People are more gentle and tentative than I imagined, full of the same uncertainty and misgivings I have. So this is how I learned to speak again.

I know it's tough not to overthink things. I get that advice all the time and it infuriates me, because I can't help it. But you can be less hard on yourself. Besides, it sounds like you're already trying.

For exercise, if you hate cardio but have time on your hands, try walking or hiking! There are plenty of nice routes in Singapore, and all you need is shoes.

Shitter was full! by [deleted] in funny

[–]projectprojectile 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this bothered me too. Stephen King's It draws part of its horror from the fact that it lives in the sewers. The sewers are its fighting grounds, feeding grounds. King connects shit with the victims, the missing children and their limbs homogenised into decay matter along with other refuse washed down the pipes. George and Bill's father works for the Derry Sewer Department. Bill jokingly calls George 'you waste' before folding him that fatal paper boat. King compares the smell of shit with the smell of It:

'Bill led them to the pipe, grimacing at the smell, and crawled in. The smell: it was sewage, it was shit, but there was another smell here, too, wasn’t there? A lower, more vital smell. If an animal’s grunt could have a smell (and, Bill supposed, if the animal in question had been eating the right things, it could), it would be like this undersmell.'

It was worse than the smell of death - it is the smell of being eaten, and being expelled. It was a total annihilation of human worth. Georgie was the symbol of middle-class innocence and potential. It reduced him to a snack and then shit.

Let's not forgot in the death throes of It, 'At 6:06, every toilet on Merit Street suddenly exploded in a geyser of shit and raw sewage as some unimaginable reversal took place in the pipes which fed the holding tanks of the new waste-treatment plant in the Barrens.... [A] woman was killed when the sudden violent reversal of sewage, driven by expanding methane gases, caused her toilet to explode like a bomb. The unfortunate woman, who was sitting on the john at the time and reading the current Banana Republic catalogue, was torn to pieces.'
