I would just like to make it clear to everyone that complaining about the OMB is completely off-limits here. Aside from the fact that I'm a mod there :P, I have seen a number of boards comprised mainly of posters from the OMB head in that direction, and believe me, it is complete poison. It put a negative spin on each of the boards, the entire purpose of the boards became a place away from the OMB where people could complain about it, and each of them died soon afterwards.
The point of this board is not to be an alternative to the OMB. ix and I both love it there; we created this board because we felt like there was something missing - no one board can meet the needs of every single fan. But we certainly don't feel like there's anything wrong with it, and we do not want to promote that kind of attitude here. Yes, it is a bigger board; yes, it's a bit harder to break into the commuity there. But you guys should know that if anyone's causing trouble you can report their post and the mods will take care of them.
Anyway. Just wanted to highlight this since there seemed to be some confusion. If you have anything to say on the issue, speak now or forever hold your peace. This will be the last time we address it.

The game is simple. You post a picture, or a phrase, anything really, and when people read the thread they try not to laugh. If you laugh you lose, and must state you have lost and what post made you lose. If you get through the thread without laughing you may post your own thing to try to make other people laugh. (Hell you can post things even if you've lost...)
I will start with this:

SOoo, since the "getting off" thread went towards a new direction, this is the thread the females of the board get to vent about how much life sucks during that time of the month, the troubles of being female, the extra clothing items we have that are hard to take care of, etc. etc. Yes, this thread will also talk about insersions of Tampons, and the pains of pads.
If you're a guy, I advise you to leave now, or be prepared to feel very awkward.
Anyways...

Post the goings-on at your work. What your job is, funny stories, what pisses you off, etc.
I'll start the thread on a good note: I got promoted officially today. I'm a cashier at Home Depot, and they're making me a head cashier, so I'll have keys and manager numbers and run the front end and stuff. I had my interview today, and my boss told me he's hiring head cashiers with a new standard, and I'm like the new bar. It's one of the greatest compliments I've ever gotten.

Alright, so I thought it would be good to have a thread where everyone can vent without and repremandments (I dont think I spelt that right but I dont care.)
Last night I really needed some one to talk to but of course none of my friends would pick up the phone or give their crying friend the time of day. So I went to bed feeling upset hoping that when I wake up that I would feel better, I did and I dont feel any better. So I thought why not make a thread where anyone who needs to vent their feelings can go too, and since I havent seen one maybe its time for a new one in case there has already been an old one.
Okay, so last night I was talking to my friend rob. He told me that one of our younger friends caitlyn has been using Keith's death for attention because she had only met him like twice and never actually had conversations with him. So I got mad and said, "I hate people who use death as a way to get attention!" he replied with, "alright promise you wont get upset?" I agreed and he said "well a trooper was talking to brandon today and he said 'You better watch out for Jesse Pebler because he is going down the same path as his DOPEY older brother'."
Well as you can guess I flipped shit. Keith was a smart kid who didnt do drugs drank a little and was a virgin. He was a sweet heart and cared about everyone. Why the hell would that be considered a wrong path?! Not to mention that jesse is the same way. Smart caring and loving. I would love to see him turn out like keith just not dead. Plus not the mention that is insulting their parents saying they dont know how to raise their own sons.
I know I have talked about Keith a lot latley, and I aploigize to anyone whoi is sick of hearing it, but the truth is I miss him more each day. So the more I talk about him the better I feel because I still feel like he is here. And the reason I cried is because it's not fair. Keith was always made fun of for his intelligence. He was a smart kid the only problem is that he said thgings with out thinking so he just sounded stupid. I do the same thing. Plus their family dosent need to have the whole "your son was a dumb ass fuck up and your other one will turn out just like him ...dead" talk. They have heard it before and it is all bull shit!
I mean come on, do these look like bad kids to you?http://s3.photobucket.com/albums/y83/midnight_runner/?action=view¤t=morerandom941.flv
aww look at em
thank you for letting me vent, now go ahead express yours. I am always hear to listen/ read.

flawedxprecision asked for it.
I just made it.
Without consulting about the "officialness". If I'm contested, take whatever measures are needed.
I agree with flawedxprecision, because half the threads I begin are about my little relationships anyhow. So now I can just post them all here. Works for me!
Relationships.
Yours, theirs, celebs, etc.
Go.

Discuss things that have made you smile lately. It could be anything. Maybe a compliment, something cute, etc.
I'm very happy because I took my first private viola lesson and 30 minutes made a difference. My teacher is really cool and he's helping me with basic things that could make me sound better when I play. This is really going to help me and also motivate me to do better.

So I go in the kitchen to make some clear raspberry cool-aid and my husband and his friend are at the front door where apparently there was a new kitty hanging out. My husband calls me over and says the kitty is friendly (he was petting it and it was rolling all over the place being cute) so I got excited and ran over to pet it. I knelt down to pet the kitty and the kitty bit and scratched my hand at the same time! WTF?
I have never had that ever happen in my whole life LOL.
SOOOOOOO random.
Discuss other random happenings in your day, or just random things that have happened I your life at some time.

i swear, there are days when it seems like only davey knows....
Twenty-six years and seems like I've just begun to understand, my intimate is no one.
When the director sold the show, who bought it's last rites? They cut the cast, the music, and the lights.. This is my line; this is eternal. How did I ever end up here? Discarnate. Preternatural.
My prayers to disappear, ungranted in dead time left me disowned, absent of grace, marked as infernal. To this nature, so unnatural. I remain alone.
Twenty-six years end. Still speaking in these tongues.. Such revelations, but understood by no one.
When the new actor stole the show, who questioned his grace? Please clear the house of ill-acquired taste...
Give me something. Give me something. Give me something real
I lay strewn across the floor, can't solve this puzzle. Everyday another small piece can't be found. I lay strewn across the floor pieced up in sorrow. The pieces are lost, the pieces don't fit. Pieced together incomplete and empty... This is my line. This is eternal. How did I ever end up here?

Yeah, it's still a month before it's even October, but I know some of us are already planning out costumes and whatnot.
Share what's going on!
Do you usually go to parties, or host them? You trick or treating (with or without your kid cousins / nieces / nephews / whatever)? You dressing up?
All I could think of today were costume ideas. I even thought about those sexy/Playboy costumes that the Sprit Halloween store stocks every year (never worn one before, not sure I have the body for it), but I always feel so much more accomplished when I build my own costume. And some of the manufactured ones are $100+ (the best ones, anyway). [sigh]
I'm not sure if I want to do a couples-costume or not, but if Ryan's still thinking of dressing up as John Marsten (Red Dead Redemption), I might consider dressing up as Bonnie MacFarlane (because we were all waiting for them to hook up, I'm sure). If money were no option, I'd do something steampunk-tastic. But since I have no job, that one may be out. Right now I'm thinking of just being a sexy fox. Which should be easy because what kind of fox isn't sexy?

Searched and didn't find anything. What do you drink, fellow non-straight edgers? I really like Appletinis, with Skyy or Absolut. Also, Crown Royal is amazing. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but let's hear about that too.

Okay, so we have a few specific game threads, and I just figured we should have just one game thread.
This thread is to discuss games you've played, games you wanna buy, questions, answers, etc.
If there is a spoiler to the game, mark CLEARLY with "SPOILERS," or something of the sort.

Anyways. I recently bought FFVII Dirge of Cerberus. Anyone played the game? If so, how is it? Easy? Hard? I'm pretty bad with First Person Shooters, so ... yeah.

Okay since I noticed that in a lot of threads we foten mention our ilnesses and problems with our bodies, this would be a good idea. NOTE: Any Pictures of an infection or something should be marked and in a spoiler. WARNING: Viewer discretion is advised.
Okay lately I haaven't been feeling to well, I don't know what it could be. I am tired ALL the time, okay not all the time, but mostly around 12-4 P.M I jsut get really drowzy, snd sometimes I can fight it off. Other times it takes control, and I completely fall asleep. My mom thinks it could be mono. But I can't think of how I would have gotten it.
And In other news. I have this "condition" in which my left foot cramps up, and it gets really tight around my pinky toe. and The only way to relieve the pain to squat down and put all of my weight on my feet, to stretch it. And yesterday it happened and it stayed cramed for about an hour! I don't know what could call this, does anyone?

Because I'm not sure if we ever had one!
Here's a place where you can rant about or praise your friends, or seek advice or just talk about your friends. Or yourself as a friend. Or other peoples' friends. Or say something friendly.
:]
Last weekend I understood that me and my friends are kind of growing apart from each other. There are not that many things we have in common anymore. But lately I've also been getting some new friends and "breaking up" with old ones is a bit sad, but I know it's only natural. At least I have some really great memories that I can cherish.

Discuss piercings. Ones you have. Which ones hurt the most. anything.
My friend and I just got snakebites lastnight. Kind of in honor of our late friend John thing since he had them. But they look pretty nice. It was a little painful. I'll take pictures when its not all huge and swallon.
Altogether i have snakebites, nipple, and ears pierced. The nipple was definatly the most painful. haha. which is why i didn't get my other one pierced. The only one i really want now is maybe my eye brow.

Hi all,
Sorry I've been pretty much m.i.a. for a while. My laptop finally keeled over. I got the blue screen of death and an error that says UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME. Hehe, unmountable boots...
I'm not very tech savvy. If I walk into FutureShop or Best Buy I could easily leave with anything the guy standing there suggests to me, whether it's good or not. So I'm looking for advice.
I had a Toshiba Satellite A100 for four years and I've had problems with it since day 1. Even after quite a few meltdowns where it seemed like the laptop couldn't be revived, I'm still surprised it lasted so long. However I was never happy with its performance. I just want a laptop that's fast, reliable, and durable, where I don't have to worry about constant technical issues.
I don't do gaming or anything of that nature. I just need a laptop for basic use - lots of typing and file saving.
The person I work for finally paid me, so I'm setting about $1500 (CAD, of course) as my limit.
Suggestions for specific laptops to look into, or what qualities I should be asking for when shopping around, would be appreciated.

For my first tattoo, I want to get an AFI dedication one, and I already have an idea for it, etc.
Any ideas for your first tattoo?
If you already have one, what was it?
Any stories/experiences behind them?
The questions could go on. Just write about your tattoo(s) and anything that you want to say about them.

Okay, so me and my best friend normally have some CRAZY-ASS dreams. And I figured, well, everyone probably does!
So post some of the weird dreams you've had.
Like one of mine recently was I finally got to meet AFI, and I was so excited. So I decided to bake them some cookies. Well, once I got to them I realized they weren't vegan cookies and I started to cry. So Davey eats one and dies, and Adam is just like 'Why did you do that? Now no one is gonna sing for us!' And that's where it ended...

Decent macro lense.
A smaller point and shoot digital camera, Nikon Coolpix of some kind.
So what are you saving up for?

So, I kinda fell off the map.
And I know y'all missed me.
The truth is that I fucked up. I destroyed any friendship I had. Exhausted all my resources. Burned every bridge I had.
Why?
I've been in treatment for the past two and half weeks and if everything goes according to plan, I'll continue on for the next several months. What I've come to find out is that I am bi-polar (manic depressive). Although I can say I've only experienced mania only a few times, but I suffer more from the downside of bi-polar, the depression. Because of that I have been diagnosed with Major Depression. And due to my depression, I have the following symptoms (disorders); PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), OCD, Social Anxiety, and lastly BPD (borderline personality disorder). All of which I am taking medicine for, or trying to. My meds get adjusted so much. Right now though I am on Zoloft, (for the depression, OCD, PTSD, and social anxiety) Trazadone (it's another anti-depressant but it's to help me sleep), and lastly Lithium Carbonate (for bi-polar. It's a mood stabilizer). And on Monday I think the Dr is going to put me on Seroquel (an anti-psychotic.) What I'm trying to get at is, I have a mental illness. I've accepted that, and know that medication will be apart of the rest of my life. I've surrendered myself to my mental illness and acknowledge it's rendered me powerless over my life and that is has become unmanageable. I am, in NO WAY putting the blame of my actions on having a mental illness, I'm learning to accept them, take responsibility, and move on and grow from them. Up until now I've taken advantage of everything and everyone. And with my head finally clear, and on a path to mental sobriety, I can see my wrongs. I can't be delusional anymore and think everything going to work out with the way I was handling my life. I was literally believing my own lies, I was trying to be so many different people around other people, I was trying to please everyone. But when you're trying to please everyone, you forget about your own wants, and if you solely focus on the wants of others, you tend to lose track of everything you're doing. But right now I am getting the tools and materials to rebuild all the bridges I have burned.
I pushed everyone away from me, and I really have no support system. I've learned that us, as human beings are selfish in nature. We only want to care about ourselves. But in reality that's going to get you nowhere. (Look where it got me) You have to consider the needs and wants as others as well as your own.
So, I'm a mission to fix me. Rewire my brain, my way of thinking, how I handle certain situations and emotions. I became a prisoner of my own mind. Looking back it's as if I had no control over anything I was doing, as if I was on the outside looking in. But now I am working on fixing me, and trying to make amends to the one's I've hurt. It's an extremely long process. My mom went through this exact same thing when I was younger. (about from 10-17) The exact same thing. It took her a good couple years to really get a handle on her illness, her medications, and how she functions as a person. I'm actually at a facility where my Mom went. I even came to visit her while she was in here. One of the nurse techs still remembers my Mom, and when I came to visit. Haha. Small world.
But anyways, I'll try to get on here and post regularly. To be honest, I completely forgot about the series.

But, I do miss y'all, and I know y'all will lend an understanding shoulder in this. What I'm going through is catastrophic, and life changing. If I do forget to get on here regularly, or to check this thread, I would love it if any of y'all would email. Right now I am only sending emails back and forth with my Mom, and one friend that understand my situation. And I look forward to checking my emails! So give me something to look forward too!
I love you guys, and I'm sorry I neglected you!
I had to go cray cray first!
